THE CHICAGO DEBATE.

Up to this time the debate between Horn
and Harvey has added nothing of import
ance to the general stock of knowledge
and familiar arguments on the monetary
controversy. Those who have followed
the debate closely and are capable of judg-
ing it impartially will agree that Horn has
shown himself the more accomplished de-
batter and Harvey has exhibited the more
thorough knowledge of the history and
the philosophy of the subject. Both sides,
therefore, are likely to claim the victory in
the contest, and each will be able to show
some reason for its claim
Had Harvey been practiced debater he
would have hopelessly com promised his
antagonist on the first day of the debate
by insisting upon an explanation of what
he meant by declaring himself bimetallist
and at the same time advocating the gold
standard. This is the crucial point of the
contest between the genuine bimetallists
and those who are trying to dodge the
issue. Horn should not have been permit
ted to get off Scot free after such an
awkward dodge as that. The country has
become so familiar with it that every one
who enters into controversy on the sub
iect ought by this time to know how to
stop the dodge by blow straight from the
shoulder.
The effective argument for a return to
bimetallism is to be found in the existing
financial situation and the report. of the
current financial news. The Cleveland ad-
ministration in order to maintain the gold
reserve and make up the deficit in the rev.
enue has increased the public debt by
$152, 315, 400, and the interest to be paid on
the increase will amount to $123, 528, 480.
Having borrowed all this money the treas
ury reserve is still far from safe. A new
loan is threatened, and new export OF
gold is imminent. 1t is clear that the gold
supply of the world is not sufficient for the
business of the world. The gold stringency
has become chronic. 1t is felt everywhere
and it is felt ct all times. Every industry
suffers from it, and the expanding energy
of the civilized world demands broader
financial basis on which to rest the struc-
ture of its increasing industry.
The battle for bimetallism may not be
the chief issue in '96. Indeed it can hardly
be the chief issue SO long as the revenues
of the country are insufficient, American
industries unprotected and the Monroe
doctrine unenforced. Nevertheless it will
be an important factor in the campaign.
The necessities of business and the welfare
of the world demand the reconciliation
of silver. The benefits that will accrue
from it will affect every industry and every
trade, and in a particular degree they will
affect the Pacific Coast by reviving silver
mining and enriching the wide region of
country of which California is the center
and San Francisco the metropolis.

Nat Landsberger, the violinist, will in all
probability go into retirement and become q
philanthropist, doing good where he can, and
in the event of his not being able to do that he
will do nothing. He strolled into the Office OF
the Palace Hotel yesterday afternoon, took a
glass of ice-water and sat down by the tele-
phone Office. In few moments gentleman
