nefhOrlOI bishOD moore.
Sunday morning at Monumental church
Rev. Fenner S. Stickney preached a
memorial sermon on the life of Bishop
Moore To very large and interested au-
dience, many OF whom were descendants
OF the Bishop. The occasion of the
sermon was the appearance of a beauti-
full mural tablet in memory OF Bishop
Moore erected by the members of his
family. The preacher cited the scriptural
verse on the tablet-"fiow beautiful
are the feet of them that preach the
Gospel of peace''-as his text. He gave
a graphic description Of the early life.
conversion, and ordination of this great
man, and alluded 10 the interesting fact
that he was first a practitioner of medi-
cine. as was also the last rector Of Monu-
mental church. who was called 10 the
Episcopate OF this diocese. Mr.. Stick
ney's sermon throughout was replete
with historical illusions of great interest,
showing the early condition OF the Epis-
copal Church of this diocese and its
wonderful revival under Bishop Moore.
Mr.. Stickney's description OF the cha
racter. eloquence, and personal appear
ance OF Bishop Moore was given with
such vividness that his hearers might

TAKE A MILD ANODYNE.

The st. Msry's Eagle has multi
grubs. It says Rev. J. D. Botkin has
quit preaching and is organizing the
Industrial Legion, 80 secret Populist
organization" It also ssgely OBJ
serves that "secret orders in politics
are a menace to good government"
We recommend a mild snodyne in
this case. The constitution will not
bear anything strong. A little in
formation may also help the case,
and we hasten to relieve the urgent
symptoms by furnishing q few items.
(D Rev. J. D. Botkin has not quit
preaching. He never preached az
much gospel in the same length Of
time in his life as he has since he
left the pulpit and became a free
man.
~ The Industrial Legion is not
a secret organization.
~ We have no good government
to menace. Our government for the
past quarter Of century or more
has been a mere instrument of rob.
berry and cruelty for the sggrandize-
ment of a few sristOcrats and the de-
basement of the poor.

benefit without being laid under ex-
orbitant tribute to one or more indi-
Viduals for the exercise of the priVi-
lege? No doubt private enterprise
would furnish the mail service also,
1T it had a chance, and no doubt in
that case we would pay five times as
much for 1t as we do now.
1t may be possible also that the
reason more people do not desire to
talk at long distances is because of
the expense Of the privilege. We
can distinctly remember when it cost
25 cents to send a letter from western
Pennsylvania to the state of Indiana,
and at that price very few people
seemed to want to write letters. AS
the service become cheaper, however,
the disposition to write increased,
until our postal system has now
grown to gigantic proportions. 1t is
also almost fsultless in its manage.
ment and is constantly increasing it's
facilities for the accommodation of
the public. Perhaps sometime the
people will know enough to have
other things done upon the same
plan, and not make the irst object of
every service a certain profit to pri-
vste individuals or corporations.

POSTAL TELEPHONES.

The Kansas City Times of May Ia,
referring to the agitation for postal
telephones, says:
There are only q comparatively few peo-
pie who want to talk at very long distances,
and il is reasonable TO expect that private
enterprise will supply the medium as soon
as the business promises TO be profitable.
The Times seems unwilling that a
public service of this kind should be
enjoyed by the people unless such
service is made to profit some private
individual or corporation. Have not
the people themselves a right to es-
tablish such g means Of cOmmunica--

WHY FREE COINAGE OF sILvER9

Toward the close of the war, after
it became reasonably certain that
the rebellion would be suppressed,
the patriotic Wall street bankers
who refused to loan their gold to the
government in It's time of great need,
gathered up greenbscks at an aver
age rate in gold of go cents on the
dollar and invested them in interest,"
bearing government bonds at par.
These bonds were payable, by the
terms of their issue, in illegal money
of the United States" which at that
time consisted of gold, silver and
legsl-tender notes. In 1862 the So
called credit strengthening act was
passed, by which it was declared to
be the purpose Of the government to
pay these obligations in coin. By
that act legal tender notes were elm
mated from the money of payment.
The act for refunding this debt was
approved July IA, 1870, and the new
bonds issued under this act ia ex-
change for the old ones specifically
provide for payment in coin in so-
cordance with the act of 1869. Ever
since the passage Of the so-called
Credit-strengthening act and the
elimination Of legsl-tender notes as q
money of payment, the Wall street
gang has been seeking to have silver
also eliminated, thus leaving gold
alone for the redemption Of these
bonds. Is there an American citizen
who has the interest of his country at
heart who is willing to permit this
additional robbery of the people for
for the further enrichment Of q few
land pirates?
We need assign no other reason
for demanding the coinage Of silver
than that it may be available for the
payment of government obligations
II should not only be coined but it
should be used also for this purpose.
Because we have peaceably submitted
to be robbed under sanction Of law
heretofore, that is no reason why we
should continue to do so. Much less
is it a reason why we should continu-
ally add to the legal methods for an
increase of the profits of such rob-
berry. 1t is time for licensed thieves
to be q little leps bold in their
methods,

IN Gnl9 manner: a COMMISSION mao
been appointed by authority of con-
gFess to revise the statutes Of che
United States to include all laws
in force up to December l,
1873. That commission completed
Its work and It's report was
ratified without even a reading
by an act approved June 22, 1874. In
that revision this commission had In
corporsted a brief paragraph which
existed IN no law prior thereto. lHow
many senator's and representatives
were aware that this paragraph had
been inserted in the revision will
never be known. It became a law,
however, in this surrsptitious man
ner. The paragraph is as follows:
The silver Colns Of the United States shall
be legel tender at their nominal value,
for any amount mot exceeding Ave dollars
in any one payment.
The silver dollar, demonetized in
this manner, renamed thus de-
graded until remonetized by the
Bland act of 1878. Did Mr.. Morton
know these facts? Did he know, that
his statement was absolutely false?
To doubt it is to presume him very
ignorant upon a subject with which
he assumes TO be very familiar. To
admit 1t is to recognize him as q
Wilful prevsricstor. His friends can
take either horn of the dilemma that
suits them best. He says again:
What is the sense Of Olamoring still fur
ther for unlimited coinage" when the
treasury cannot get rid by hook or By crook
Of those already coined and lying in useless
heaps3 They are Well-mintsd, Of just
weight, nine-tenthS fne, are legal tonder
for all debts, and bear the legend, ''In God
We Trust"
Mr.. Morton we'll knows that it is
optional with the secretary Of the
treasury to pay every outstanding
public obligation in silver doll srs;
and, being legal tender, he knows
that creditors of the government
would be compelled to receive them.
He makes deliberate misstatement,
therefore, when he says that 'the
treasury cannot get rid, by hook or
by crook, Of those already coined,
and lying In useless heaps" The
simple fact is the secretary of the
treasury does not want silver in cir
culation and therefore invariably OK
ercises his discretion for the pay
ment of all obligations in gold.
But there is still another incon-
sistency here. Unless the people
are more forgetful than we think
they are, they will remember that
during the panic Of 1893 money of
small denominations became 80
scarce that the secretary was called
upon from every quarter for a sup.
ply. Even che Wall street gang that
was Clamoring for the repeal Of Che
Sherman law in order to restore con-
fidence, offered gold for silver dol
lars and not only that but offered to
pay a premium for them also. What

ture, has fallen into Mr.. Cleveland'e
habit Of letter writing, and there
seems to be an active rivalry between
these tunctionsries to determine
which is capable Of the greater alb
surdities and prsvsrications. Just
now Mr.. Morton seems to lead, but
Mr.. Cleveland's turn comes next, and
he may get even with his secretary.
Mr.. Morton's latest letter to which
we here refer is the one written to
Mr.. James A. Cherry, Of Denver,
Colo, in reply to some criticisms by
that gentleman Of certain statements
made by Mr.. Morton In a recent in
terVieW. There is little in the letter
worth noticing were il not for the
high position occupied by Che
writer. Many people are slow to be-
lleve that a public official occupying
so responsible a position under the
national government will be guilty of
mlsstatements or Of deliberate decep-
tion; and it is humiliating to be COM
PEELED to believe it. That 1t is true
shows the depth of degradation to
which our government officials have
descended.
In this letter Mr.. Morton makes
the following statement:
Allow me respectfully TO call your atten-
zion TO your use in common with many Of
the bimetsllistg, 80 called, Of the date Of
1873, as the time Of tho decentralization of
silver" Unless / am mistaken, the silver
dollar Ia not mentioned at ell, one way or
the other, in the aob of 1873. All the de-.
monetization Of silver, as understand it,
chat ever came about in this country, hap
psned in the law Of 1853, when congress
took away the legal tender quality Of all sill
YER in payment Of debts Of over $6 in
amount.
It is true the act Of 1873 omits
mention Of the standard silver dollar,
and 1t is IN this omission thGt the
crime of tbat act consists. In that
Rct the future coinage of the United
States mints was provided for, and
Che fact that the standard silver dol
Lax was not mentioned constitutes the
very discrimination against it of
which the adYocates of free coinage
complain. Section II Of the act pro-
vides:
That no coins, either Of gold, silver or
minor coinage, shall hereafter be issued
fRom che mints other than those of the de-
nominations, standards, and weights herein
sea forAh.
And yet Mr.. Morton's statement is
evidently designed to convey the I'M
preston that because the silver dol
Lar was not mentioned it was, there.
fore, not affected by the act. Does
anybody believe that he did not know
better than TO convey such an impres-
sion?
Bot, in addition to this, the para
graph above quoted contains q posi-
live falsehood as follows:
All che demonstration Of silver, "a un-
dsrStand it, that We came about in thii
