at the Slale University, who ha~
made American History his specially
aud probably has a mole intimate
knowledge of il than AIRY other man
in the State, writes to say: Il am
glad to see the stand you have taken
on the Venezuelan question. All
though in the minority now, you haye
the satisfaction Of being right, and l
am convinced that there will BE de-
cidsd reaction in the direction OF
your position as soon as people have
time to cool Off"
Another man who is known al
over the State writes this; ~ have

ed from this port, the grain having been
brought here by locally-owned steamer
lines. over 10000 tons Of wheat brought
here In transit cost at least Sl.00 per
ton to get here. That was $4,000 brought
to San Francisco. 1t cost at kast so
cents per ton to unload 1t on the sea
wall and trangfer II to the sailing ship.
That was at least $4,000 more, or s60,qOO
brought here, which also being a tax on
the wheat, made II impossible for the
Northern grain to cut under prices for
that grown in Californll-at least where
water competition was a factor. Every
one of the thirtsen ships that came here
for that wheat brought cargo, add at
low freight, due TO the hope of getting
here to secure outward business. Each
ship expended from 5000 to $1,000 In por:,
or, taking the lowest figure, $780, a total
Of $4,000. These items footed up show
that the 10000 tons brought from the
north, without injLrlng the California
farmer, middlemen or exporter, added a,
least $151,0O0 and probably neiry S2O0,OW
to the wsalth Of this state. In short, as
the great distributing point for Pacific
Coast products and Tor foreign goods
brought to this coast, san francisco
should do everything possible to reduce
all kinds of porL charges, and encourage
the shipment Of goods here for EXPORT,
as we'll as the imports of goods for dis

WHAT STEWART SAID.
Gold Is the Universal Standard of the
World
Kansas city STIR.

Kansas City Star.
SO much history relative to the mone-
tary legislation of the United States, and
especially in reference to the coinage law
of 1873, is appearing in the newspapers
that the stale Old hysterlcal cry nS0It
the crime of 1873 win soon bring forth
merely derisive laugh every time 1t Is
repeated. in public debate or private con-
versation. The largest addition to the
current information on the subject Is
given In Secretary Carlisle's Covington
speech, delivered last night. Mr. Car
lisle shows that much maligned John
Sherman voted against the law of 1878.
and that Senator Stewart voted for It.
Senator Stewart grows fierce every time
the subject of the Crime of 1872 comes
up. He has poured out torrents Of de-
nunciatlon of the law. His plea that he
did NOT know the bill dropped the sii-
yer dollar from the coins of the United
States is enough to disgrace his record
as a senator. Are men sent to congress
10 vote for bills without knowing what
they are voting for? Mr.. Stewart is In Il
worse position than some of the other
"innocents" who pretend that they did
not know what they were voting for.
He is on record as having made n speech
SpeclHcUliy QccIdTlHB III ldNOr Oh u SNiSle
gold standard. Here are his words, as
they appear in the Congressional Globe
81 want the standard gold and no paper
money, not redeemable in gold; no paper
money The value of which is not ascer-
tained no paper money that will organic
gold board to speculate in It. Gold Is
the universal standard Of the world
Everybody knows what dollar In 5old
Is WORTH"
This speech of Senator Stewards was
delivered in 1871, before the minIts of GEL
many and France had been closed
AGAINST silver. So this champion Of free
silver himself can be made an authority
for the statement that the SO called de.
monetization Of silver, not only In Amer
lea, but elsewhere, was simply q lega,
recognition of a condition which the laws
of trade had established. Commercial
usage made gold a standard of values be-
fore laws of nations did.
Authentic history furnishes the best
answer to the free silver argument In
the main, 1t is controversy between
plain facts on the one side and distorted
facts on the other.
