Secretary Hoke Smith deserves credit for one
thing He was in favor Of free and unlimited
silver coinage several years ago and he does not
deny It. although to do so he would not be COM
PEELED to deny a record covering fifteen years as
a free silver advocate In Congress- Many per-
sons Will think the better OF Mr.. Smith for his
frank confession and ingenious explanation of
past error Whatever may be said OF his dis
cIaimer in regard to the remainder Of his letter
OF September Is. 1S90-whlch does not seem to be
either very clear or satisfactory-no fault can be
found with what he has to say about his change
OF views on the subject Of free coinage. It's
pity that Secretary Carlisle lacked the moral
courage to offer similar explanation rather
than to make a futile attempt to repudiate his
own record.

Bynum. OF Indiana. having confessed 3nd re-

come an apostle OF Sound Money" has just
made another confession. He says that an ex-
perence OF ten years as a member OF the House
OF Representatives has convinced him that not
ten members OF that body lever do know what
IS being done" Now. every body knows that. II
there many as ten. Bynum was one Of
them. But Bynum must see that he has not only
thrown the country in.o a state Of anxious UNI
certainty. but raised expectations which he
alone can satisfy. Everybody wants to know the
names Of the other nine members who ever do
know what is being done" 1t may be that all,
or at least some OF them may be statesmen
out OF n job like himself. and therefore that in
the House OF Representatives there may
not be FIVE members who will ever know
what Is being done" Give the names. Mr.

As Clean rs They Are Polite and ~ Gen

The Japanese have many nice quail

clean, they are polite. and apparently
they are very gentle and very brave.

unreasonably their example is much held
up to us nowadays for emulation. Intel
hsent foreigners who have observed us
closely have declared that we are the
rudcst and tho kindcst people in the
world.
OF course it is pity that we are NOS
more universally courteous; that our
children are not demure and orderly like
the Japanese children that we throw
papers into tho street and drop peanut
shells and orange peel OH tho floors Of
our public conveyances. Of course it is
pity that we arc not more like tho
Japanese IN many particulars; but, for
my part, make bold to confess that
American manners, with all their de-
fects, are better suited to my American
taste than japanese manners, with all

"Some years ago." said Alderman
James @ Gilbert to reporter, "I had
q tenant down town who died, leaving

property consisted Of an old mare, and
more to obllgo them than anything else

my wife adopted her for her own driv-

rs the old marc was so gentle that my
wife could drive her about town herself
1t seemed, however, that tho mare

subject Of funerals and made point
never to miss one. The old mares
principal occupation for years had been
to follow funeral professions to the
cemeteries. One day my wife was driv-

encountered a negro funeral, followed
by number of societies with all this
paraphernalia of an imposing cortege-
The old marc recognized tho process
sion at glance, and calmly turned in
to the line of the parade In vain my
wife tugged ut the reins and tried to
turn ont. The old mare knew her bust
ness, and with head hung down solemn

Occasionally they would meet IN no
quaintance of ours, and they looked

wife was apparently paying to the de-

modification and anger
AT every crossing she would appeal
to bystanders to stop the old mare, but
they didn't seem to understand, until
at last they passed policeman, who, in
response to my wife's fearful appeals
stopped the old mare and dragged her
out of the procession, much to her sur
prise and disgust. Of course had
