TO be guided in the performance Of
their duties outside OF the law? Is it
not an immoral thing to disregard the
laws that they have sworn to uphold?
This is an aspect of the case that the
advocates Of the gold standard ignore.
Towards the free silver man the gold
man takes the 81 am holier than thou"
position. That may be. but the pro-
ceeding by which he has been deter
mned to be has been ex parte and the
gold man has been in the judgment
seat.
we shall never assume to say what
Senator Dubois supposes and what he
does not so we cannot answer for him
the question. What does he suppose
people would pay for silver bonds"
We think we can answer, though. The
people would pay the market price, but
that price would be equally as high as
now. The very infrequency of their
issue, consequent upon the free coinage
of silver, would be a guarantee of their
price. The amount of a bond issue is
as important a factor in determining
the price at which they can be sold as
the specification of the kind of money
In which they should be paid
We ask the gold men this question:
The government bonds being payable
in coin, coin at the time of their issue,
including gold and silver money at fix
ed ratio. is it immoral to carry out the
contract as it was entered into? 1t is
a new doctrine in law and ethics to say
that an honest compliance with the
terms of contract is immoral.

faculty to some extent. The professor
/ of constitutional law in that institu-
! ton is DR.. Won Hoist, author of the
/ Constitutional History of the United
! States. He does not accept the Mon
rec doctrine as enunciated in President
I Cleveland's Venezuelan message, and
says so in terms that are more forci-
BILE than elegant. His view of the
I question is far from popular in Chi
| cago and is denounced. Moreover,
many fail to distinguish between the
views of Dr. Won Hoist. a university
professor. and those of the univer-
sity, so they charge his views upon the
latter This finally necessitated a card
from DR.. Harper, the president of the
university. to the effect that the uni
versity was not responsible for the
views set forth by DR.. Won Hoist. A
moments reflection would have been
| sufficient to have shown anyone that
they were not and could not be. The
hubub the affair has raised in Chi
cago demonstrates the need of univer-
sity influence there. Were the city
really permeated with it, it would have
been recognized that to become unduly
excited over the public expression of
a professors private opinion, no mat
ter how erroneous nor how at variance
with the sentiment OF the people, was
foolish in the extreme Professor Won
Hoist has the same right to his opin-
ions. no matter what they be- and
to express them that anv other nerSop
in America has. The guarantee Of
liberty is for the benefit of the mi
nority and the unpopular; the majority
and the popular have no need of such
a guarantee.
What has been the effect of Pro-
fessor Won HOSTS expression of dis
approval of the Presidents message?
1t has merely been to impair his
standing as the great authority on
American constitutional history; moth
ing more. The Monroe doctrine re-
mains as intact as ever and the peo-
pie have not withdrawn their endorse
naent of Mr.. Clevelands Interpretation
of it.
Those good people of Chicago who
feel indignant at DR.. Won Hoist forget
that the justice of their position can
not be injured by any adverse criti-
cism. They should be careful lest
their Indignation. although proper
and patriotic, injure their great uni
versity. 1t is in its infancy and stin
needs that encouragement that even
great wealth cannot give.

WHY THE HASTE:

The two bills that the Republicans
have decided to introduce into the
House yesterday and today were pub
Hshed in the dispatches yesterday
morning and a perusal of them dis
closes no material difference between
the bills themselves and the Associated
Press dispatch account of their main
features. The one ON finance author

to issue an unlimited amount of 3 per
cent coin bonds, redeemable afr five
years at the pleasure of the govern

sole purpose of redeeming United
States legal tender notes; second, the
Secretary of the Treasury is author
lied at his discretion to issue certifi-
Gates of indebtedness to the amount of
S50,000,00O to run three years, bearing
Interest at the rate Of three per cent;
the proceeds to be used in meeting
the temporary deficiency now existing
or which may hereafter occur" in the
treasury.
The second bill. ito temporarily i'm
crease the revenues, to meet the ex-
penses Of the government and provide
against a deficiency" restores SO per
cent of the Mckinley tariff on the three
items of wool. WOODEN goods and lum-
Der. and lays a. horizontal duty
of Is per cent above the
rates of the Wilson tariff law
on nearly all other articles. 1t is
estimated that the increase of the rev.
enue from this tax will be about $40,-
100000 per annum, $12,000,000 coming
from the tax ON WOOL $14,000000 from
the tax ON wooden goods. and s14. 100000
from the horizontal increais. of Is per
cent. That is of the forty millions OF
dollars in the increase of taxation,
twenty-siX millions must be laid upon
the clothing of the people.
The Republicans decided in commit
tee yesterday to devote one day to THE
consideration of the bill and then rush
them to AN immediate passage; and
yesterdays proceedings in relation TO
the consideration and passage of thu
tariff bill. at $50 p. m, gives good
earnest that the committee programme
will be carried through.
Why this haste? The minority of the |
committee on Ways and Means did not |
have time to prepare and file their |
views, and surely one days discussion
is scant time for the consideration of I
such legislation. The first session of a |
Congress is the long one, there is plenty
of time, and since there is to be no |
general tariff legislation ON Republi- i
can protective tariff lines, there will /
be nothing but the appropriations to
detain the Congress in protractad
session. Are the Republicans DESTROYS /
of rushing through their tariff meas
ure or of getting it SO far advanced |
that they can escape the opportunities
of the hordes of agents sent to Wash
ing'ton in the interest of manufacture
ing industries that seek government
aid? Or have they deserted the do
nothing policy of Speaker Reed for a
o-as-little-as-you-ca policy, and yet
be able to go before the country
with a record of having done some
thing in the way of high tariff and
financial legislation?
