Our Consular Service.

In view of the growth of our inter-
ests in foreign countries and the en-
couraging prospects for a. general eX
pansion of our commerce, the question
of an Improvement in the consular SER
vice has increased in Importance and
urgency. Though there is no doubt
that the great body of consular Of
ficers are rendering valuable services
to the trade and industries of the
country, the needs of some plan of
appointment and control which would
tend to secure a higher average of eff
feciency cannot be denied. The i'm
portance of the subject has led the
executive to consider what steps might
properly be taken without additional
legislation, to answer the need of a bet
ter system of consular appointments.
NEED OF BETTER APPOINTMENT
SYSTEM.
The matter having been com
mitted to the consideration of
the secretary of state in
pursuance of his recommendations. an
executive order was issued on the goth
of September, 1895, by the terms of
which it is provided that after that
date any vacancy in consulate or
commercial agency with an annual
salary or compensation from official
fees of not more than $500 or less
than 81, 900 should be filled either by
transfer or promotion from some other
position under the department of
state of a character tending to qualify
the incumbent for the position to be
filed, or by the appointment of per-
son not under the department of state
but having previously served there
under and having shown his capacity
and fitness for consular duty, or by

FACTOR.

In the present stage of our difficulty
it IS not easy to understand how the
amount of our revenue receipts direct
ly affects it. The important question
is not the quantity of money received
in revenue payments but the kind of
money we maintain and our ability to
continue a sound financial condition.
We are considering the governments
holdings of gold as related to the
soundness of our money and as affect
ing our national credit and monetary
strength. If our gold reserve had
never been impaired or if no bonds
had ever been issued to replenish it. if
there had been no fear and timidity
concerning our ability to continue gold
payment, if any Fart of our revenues
were not paid in gold, and If we could
look 70 our gold receipts as means
of maintaining a safe reserve, the
amount of our revenues would be an
influential factor in the problem, but
unfortunately all the circumstances
that might lend weight to this con-
sideration are entirely lacking.
NO GOLD RECEIVED FOR REV
ENUE CHARGES.
In our present predicament no gold
is received by the government in pay
ment of revenue charges, nor would

the least contribute toward giving us
the kind of safe financial standing or
condition which is built on gold alone.

DISPOSITION OF TREASURY 81
YER.

I do not overlook the fact that the
cancellation of the treasury notes is
sued under the silver purchasing act
of 1890 would leave the treasury in the
actual ownership of sufficient silver,
including seignoriage, to coin nearly
S17S,OO0O00 in standard dollars. 1t is
worthy of consideration whether this
might not, from time to time. be
converted into dollars or fractional
coin and slowly put INTO circulation as
in the judgment of the secretary of
the treasury the necessities of the
country should require. Whatever is
attempted should be entered upon fully
approaching the fact that by a care
less, easy descent we have reached a
dangerous depth and that our ascent
will not be accomplished without
laborious toll and struggle We snail
be wise if we realize that we are
financially ill and that our restoration
to health may require heroic treatment
and unpleasant remedies.

TO REMEDY THE INCONVENIENCE.
Any inconvenience or embarrassment
arising from these restrictions on the
location of national banks might well
be remedied by better adapting the
present system to the creation of banks
in smaller communities or by permit
ting banks Of large capital to establish
branches in such locations as would
serve the people, SO regulated and re-
strained as to secure their safe and
conservative control and management.

TIONS.

But there might not be the neces-
sity for such an addition to the cur
rency by new issues of bank circula-
tic,a as ait first glance is indicated. If we
should be relieved from maintaining a
gold reserve under conditions that con-
stitute it the barometer of our solvency,
and our treasury should no longer be
the foolish purveyor Of gold for ma
tions abroad or for speculation and
boarding by our citizens at home. L
should expect to see gold resume its
natural and normal functions in the
business affairs of the country, and
cease to be an object attracting the
timid Of our people and exciting their
sensitive imaginations
