Senator Palner's bill providing for
the payment of the first mortgage
bonds of the Pacific roads by the
government in silver standard dol
lars coined from the so-called seign-
forage in the treasury is a bit of
tit-for-tat business. These first
mortgage bondholders became such
by one of those pieces Of chicanery
with which the records of congress
in the sixties and seventies are so
rich, by which the first mortgage
lien of the government was made
second to theirs. 1t was a cool,
clear case of fraud, cut off from the
same piece of fraud from which the
Credit Mobilier and other rank jobs
were made. These bonds were
tainted with this fraud from their
inception, and no holder of them
today, whether original or subse-
quent, is entitled to plead the '.in-
nocent holder" defense to Senator
Palmer's proposition. There is a
sense of poetic justice in this meet
ing a palpable fraud with a sugar.

thing is to be hoped for when it

is limited to this one article of tin

une is the fact that tin plate is made
III this country in spite Of the asser-
ton in the campaign of 80 that it
was not and could not be made.
What ought to confuse the Tribune
is the fact that tin plate is still being
made in this country in spite OF the
reduction of the tax to it's former
status, and in spite of the stout
assertions of the manufacturers and
of papers like the Tribune that, if
the tax Of % cents a pound were
not retained every tin plate factory
in the country would have to shut
up. That tin plate is still being
produced in this country and the
tax is no higher than when they
said that they could not produce it
unless the tax was doubled, is a
pretty straight way Of giving the lie
to the claim that protection was
ever necessary for them.
