SENIORITY AGAIN.
Military Quotes "SOIdier" and Makes Some Pertinent Observations of His Own
 on the Question,
Birmingham, June 10, 1895.

Birmingham June 10, 1895. To the Age-Herald
 have read with much interest what you have had to say respecting the se- niority of our colonels. I shall ask the privilege of reproducing in your eolumnS a communication recently published signed Soldier" as it abounds with in- terest to about 25O0 other soldiers throughout Alabama, who some day may be commissioned officers, and it sets forth an established precedent of rank which I should like to see sustained.
 Custom of the service is an unwritten flaw, but time-honorcd and sacred to Us all. The letter reads:
 Birmingham, Ala, June :. 1895. Editor Daily State:
 l have noticed quite an agitation in the state press for the past few weeks as to the opinion as regards the seniority of the colonels of the First and Second regiments, also that our ex-Governor Jones was quoted as finding a statute that fixes it. for Colonel Williams section 173 of the code, which reads:
 Insignia of Rank.-The insignia of rank of the officers shall be the same as that of officers of corresponding rank in the United States army. Whenever an officer is elected or appointed as his own successor he ranks from the date of his original commission, which shall be eX- tended by indorsement of the adjutant- general"
 The accepted meaning of this section has always been that it applies only to officer whose term of office Cthree years) has expired by limitation, and not when an officer tenders his resignation, as is evidenced by the adjutant-generals re- port for 1894, page 70, of the official rec ords-that are not lost-which gives the rank as follows:
 Col l.. Y. Clark d), commissioned June 90, 1890.
 Col Price Williams @, commissioned July 13, 1891.
 Col. Benjamin r. Elmore @, commits stoned September 14 1891.
 1 cite the case of Capt. J. B. Kendrick Company c. Second regiment, who was elected captain and commissioned March ?, 1891, and resigned later, and was re- elected his own successor December 3, 1891. A request was made of the adiu- tant-general to give Captain Kendrick his old rank of March 29, but such was denied, and he was commissioned from December 8 1891. (See adjutant-gener- als report for 1891, page 25). Verify, has the law been changed?
 Ex-Governor Jones was at that time commonde-in-chief. Does she construe the law differently now or is he correctly quoted?
 Why did not this "ex-ofIicer and learned lawyer quote section 172 of the code, reading:
 "Tactics.-The Alabama state troops shall adopt and use the same tactics and regulations as may be in use from time to time in the United States army. ex-

DRAWING CLOSER.

The launching of the great transAt lantic liner St Louis means another link that draws the old and new world closer. The Atlantic ocean is now crossed with greater ease and less danger than Wash inGton and his patriots crossed the Del aware. A movement has been started to lay another cable across the ocean, and make the tolls so cheap that it can be generally used. Every year the different nations of the world are drawn closer. To further draw the nations together an international clearing house should be established. Every city has it's clearing house, and New York is the clearing house of the nation. The principle should be extended to embrace all com mercial nations. An international clear ing house would lessen the shipment to and fro of gold It would save the loss of coin by s1ipwrec1 at sea. as when the Colima and the Elbe went down with their hundreds of thousands of dollars on board Gold would then be used more as a mca sure of value like q yard stick, and the merchant who shipped gold would be looked upon with the sa me ridicule as if he shipped his yardstclI When England paid us $15, 900, 900 in set tlement of the Alabama claims, not a dollar in coin was shipped. but she set tied in exchange The war indemnity to be paid Japan by China will doubt less be settled in a similar manner As the world progresses it has less and less need for coin.

Alabama Is heartily in favor of the i'm mediate construction by governmental aid of the Nicaraguan canal.
 Mir. Underwood was very brief in his reference to the currency question. He said:
 believe 1t to be to the interest of our people and part of the fundamental prin- ciples of our government and our party that the gold and silver bullion of the country should be coined into money without charge or discrimination against either metal
 And again MT. Underwood said:
 Our party was placed in control of the national government at a time when overproductien, wild speculation and false legislation of the republican party had eliminated in financial depression and disaster to the business interests of the people, and although our party has been in no way responsible for the causes which produced the present congestion of business. the country is fortunate in hav- ing as the head of the national govern ment Grover Cleveland. a man whose fearless courage and unstained integrity has been a pillar of strength to the cred it of the nation and the security of the citizen.

 Demopolis, June 9.-(Special corre- spondence IA large congregation as- sembled at the temple both in the fore and afternoon today to witness two very interesting and impressive services. In the morning confirmation services were conducted by the rabbi MT. Louis Mayer, who ofieiated in his usual dignified and impressive manner. The conhfmants were Misses Fannie Mayer, Mamie Sl- mon and Marguerite Bley, who, in their dresses of spotless white, were beautiful and fitting types of religious purity. inc choral service added it's full quota to the pleasure of the programme, winch was as follows: Organ prelude, reading, Psalm xxiv; anthem, Sweet Hour oE Prayer" choir; prayer for silent deVo- ton; morning service; sanctifcation; prayer by minister; entrance of confirm ants, confirmation hymn by choir; salu- tatlon by minister; solo by Mrs. S. Il. Newhouse; prayer by Miss Fannie May CT: examination of confirmantS; duo, Lead Kindly Light" Mrs. P. A. Floyd and Mrs. s. II.

 In the afternoon at o'clock the closing exercises Of the Sabbath school were held at the same place, the following being the programme: Music, choir; prayer, Miss Nettie Long; welcome, Master Joe Mayer: the sixth and first classes were then examined, after which Misses Wan da and Carrie Mayer delivered two inter esting character sketches on Abraham and Moses: then followed the examina- ton of the fifth and fourth classes and then two more sketches equally as in teresting on David and Solomon by N ss Florence Newhouse and Master Ely Simon; the second and third classes were then examined, at the conclusion of which the choir gave a pleasing selection, which was followed by the address and awarding of the medal. The medal was won by Miss Selma Bley and was award cd by Mr J. l.. Marx, who made one of those excellent talks for which he is fa- nous.
 Messrs. M. Ely. M. Schwarz and s. El- kan were the appointed judges, and so excellent was the examination that it was with great difficulty they settled upon the winner.

BTMETALLIsM.

Harper's Weekly takes the position that
 there is no such thing as bimetallism
 It says:
 Bimetallism has never existed in practice
 in the world s history. It has been deereed
 by law but W henever two metals have been
 made legal tender the cheaper has invaria-
 bly, driven the dearer metal ont of eircula-
 tion- In our own country gold was under
 valued from 1792 to 1884, and we had nothing
 but silver and cheap foreign silver at that,
 as circulating coin. and after that silver
 ratio. silver was too valuable 10 be coined
 into dollars At the present time, if the
 silver shall be accepted by the wage
 earner the professional man, the merchant and the manufactures. in return for ser vices and goods that are worth ounce III
 gold. il would cheat the producers ana
 working people of the country ont ot about 1s ounces or silver on every sach trans action. for an ounce of gold IS now worth
 about a ounces of silver. Perhaps all the nations Of the world together m'gat make 16 ounces of silver equivalent to d ounces,
 but fl the attempt should be made, any one of the nations might break the agree ment and then all would be confusion in the worlds monetary system. And aSain, if all the governments of the world, agree inp can make if ouncee eolIal fo 34 ounces why waste 15 ounces? Why not make l ounce equal To Si? Why use silver or gold Why not adopt the iron dollar oI the ancient Spartans?
 What this country and the world want above all things, and just now especially, when business seems to be reYiving, is to
 leave existing monetary conditions as they arc. so Tar as the netaiS sAIe tpiic'iilcH. Above all else. everything that is uneef- tain is dangerous.
 While there is force in the argument of Harper's Weekly, it must be admitted that there is a certain sort of bimetal- lism and that this country and other nations are successfully practieing it.
 This sort of bimetlllism is quite differ ent from the single silver standard of China. The bimetallism of which liar
 pers speaks is that which attempts to
 have two money metals and two stand
 ards. Of course such a thing as two
 standards is as preposterous as two yard sticks Even if it were possible, what is
 the necessity, when both metals are kept
 on parity?
 The bimetallism now practieed by this l country and France has two metals and
 one standard This is practical bimetal- l lism. for it has been tested and is now
 working well. Those who advocate this | system are practical bimetallists-they | desire the use of both metals and desire l that both shall be kept on a parity. On
 the other hand, the 16-to-1 advocates are | not bimetallists, but silver monometal- | lists. In fact, Lon Livingston, the free | silver leader in Georgia, has admitted as | much. The free silver convention in
 Memphis will doubtless pass resolutions in favor of bmetalllsm, but in so doing | they will "steal the livery of Heaven to serve the devil in"

did not he come sooner? He makes no provision in this scheme. however for our foreign trade. amounting in all to about s. 900, ,G00000 annually. In what kind of currency should this be carried on? Or does the captain propose 10 drop il wholly, and just let us sell these things to each other?
 Captain Howells account of the cur rency of silver and accompanying pros- perity between 1860 and 1875, satisfies us that 1860 was the year of his birth, and that his earliest financial ideas were derived from Uncle Rcmus. It has long been known that the south was short of collateral. In fact. one of the southern financiers in congress declared seven years ago that 1t was rather collateral than currency which the south needed. Captain Howell admits this. and says that this is the cause of the high rate of interest at the south. The rate is now 10 or F per cent. Increase the cur rency the captain thinks. and down would go the rate. But why should one lend money 10 q man who has no col lateral, al a low rate of interest be- cause there is an abundance of money in the country? The question with money lender must always be, not how much money there is per capita scat tered around the state, but how much per capita the man has got who wants to borrow. T have no collateral, colonel, and want a loan mighty bad, but there is so much money in the country today I should not think yon would need much security" is an address to bank pres ident which would, we have no doubt, make any bank in the south ring with laughter. It would be discouraging to find the editor of a leading newspaper in such an infantile state of mind re- garting the principles of finance, if it did not prove that he was personally prosperous and never wanted discount.

Editor Howell on Silver.


 What tough work we have still before us in currency matters is well shown by an interview reported in the Tribune of this morning with Captain Howell, the editor of the Atlanta Constitution. an in fiuential paper printed in one of the lead ing commercial cities of the south. He says the south is worked up" to an ex- traordinary degree in favor of silver, and he thinks the idea is not going to die out. He himself is in favor of ar ranging a money system to suit our selves, without recognizing foreign pow CTS in the arrangement" Why is this? Why do We shut out foreign powers? The answer is easy. Because. when we have money system that is in con formity with that of all Europe and the rest of the world, whenever there is a panic in any place in the world We feel the effect of it "There is no use deny- ing" he adds, that. during the period in the history of the country when silver was most largely used, from 1860 to 1875, was the most prosperous time we have ever known His remedy for panics, you see, is quite simple and we are glad he has come on with it so soon: but why

The Third Kentucky District Conven- tion, which met at Winchester declared overwhelmingly in favor of sound money, and unanimously indorsed Cleve- land and Carlisle. It was largely com posed of men from the mountains. The mountaineers of the South are conserv- atives-they believe in letting well enough alone They were largely Union men during the war. When they are heard from on the currency question it will be found that the South is not as solid for free silver as the politicians profess to believe.
