THE SILVER DISCUSSION.
nrr. Harvey Declares There Is Too Much
Credit Money.

CHICAGO. July 2o-The Horr- Harvey
silver dispute was continued yesterday

and Mr.. Harvey then resumed the discus
sion OF the question Of primary and credit
money. The amount OF gold in the United
States he estimated at s4oo, 600 900 to e8Oo,-
100000, and of our credit money about
u, ooo 900, 900. This was too much credit
money, he said, and accounted for tho
oonntry's financial arrangement
Mr.. Horr continued by saying that up
to the present Mr.. Harvey had not said a
single word in proof of the actual subject
OF dispute. Mr.. Horr declared that Mr..
Harvey's subject was not SO much to build
up silver us to pull down gold. The nor
NAL amount Of money necessary for the
transaction of the business OF the oou utry,
said Mr. Harvey, was 81, 800 900. 900. As
matters now stand he said that the banks
We're lending and getting interest on two
dollars for every dollar in circulation.
Mr.. Horr said that the question whether
the banks were a curse to the country
would be discussed In Its proper place and
Mr.. Harvey would probably be disguised
with himself, whom 1t was done, for hay
Ing brought the matter up.
The debate finally adjourned at Mr.
Horr's request until Saturday.

OF the city government, an investigation

ONE BY ONE.


ADELAIDE A PROCTOR.
Ono by one the sands are flowing.
One by one the moments fall;
Some are coming, some are going
Do not strive to grasp them all.
Ono by one thy duties wait thee.
Let thy whole strength go to each;
Lot no future drenms elate thee.
Learn thou first what those can teach.
One by one (bright gifts from heaven)
Joys are sent thee here below;
Take them readily whom given, --...
Ready, too. to let them 10,
One by one thy griefs shall meet thee.
Do not fear an armed band;
One will fade ss others greet thee;
ShadOws passing through the land.
Do not look at life's long sorrow;
See how small eneh moments pain
So each day begin again.
Every hour that fleets so slowly
Has It's task TO do or bear;
Luminous the crown, and holy.
II thou set each gom with care.
Do not linGer with regrettIng.
Or for passing hours Gespond;
Nor, the daily toll forgetting,
Look too eagerly beyond.
Hours are golden links Gods token
Reaching heaven; but one by one
Take them. lest the chain be broken
Ere the pilgrimage be done.
