SPEAKER orisp,s Health.

The announcement in our dispatches
this morning that the physicians of
Speaker Crisp have advised him to leave
Washington for month would seem to
indicate that his health is seriously i'm
paired. The inference from the dispatches
is that his heart is affected. The trouble
may he only temporary. 1t is certainly to
be hoped so. The duties of the speaker of
the House are very exacting and burden
some, and the strain upon Judge Crisp
may have been greater than he could bear
with safety.
Just at this time he cannot very we'll
be spared from Washington. His duties
as speaker can be performed satisfactorily
by others, but his advice as leader of the
majority is greatly needed in respect to
several important matters that are now
pending. There is still hope that banking
and currency bill will be passed by this
congress. Two bills relating to currency
matters were introduced into the Senate
yesterday, one by Senator Pugh of Ala
bama and the other by Senator Sherman
of Ohio The banking and currency COM
mittee is still tinkering the Carlisle bill
with the hope of getting it into accepta-
BILE shape. 1t can be readily seen, there
fore, that much may depend upon the
speakers presence in Washington.
There is no suspicion that he will not
be able to occupy his seat in the next con-
gress, and there would be very general
regret If there were grounds for it. He
will be the leader of the minority in the
next House, and his position will be an
exacting one. That he will fill it with
credit to himself and satisfaction to his
friends there is no doubt. provided his
health does not fail

A good story is told Of Hermann the
magician, SAYS the Chicago Record. At
the last matinee performance of his recent
engage ment in Chicago he called for some
boy or young man 90 come on the stage
and assist in the performance Of some
tricks. The youth who responded 70 this
invitation was student from a military
academy He wore a gray uniform. with
the usual short ClOse-fittinG jacket and
wide-striped trousers.
Hermann pulled cards out of the young
mans sleeve handed him articles which
suddenly vanished into the air and in
other ways nystihed the youth to the de-
light OF the spectators.
As the young man started 30 leave the
stage the magician said; BY the way.

The magician tapped with his hand on
the outside Of the trousers pocket and
there was a jingle of silver You have
81 don't see how that can be. These are

"Ah. but you have the money in your
inside coat pocket" said the magician. and
reaching inside the coat he pulled out the
four silver dollars,
Only few people heard the converse

Even q great man such as Hermann
would find pretty difficult to remove four
dollars from pocket when there was no

silvsr ana the Railroad..

The silverites are now trying 20 make
the country believe that the financial
troubles from which the railroads have
suffered within the last two or three years
are due 10 the decentralization Of silver.
These wise men argue that IL the coinage
OF silver were made free the railroads
would Immediately become prosperous.
Their argument IS that freight rates are
charged in proportion TO the money value
OF the articles transportod-that when
prices are high freight rates are high.
While it is true that the prices Of nearly
all kinds Of products have fallen within
the last two years the rates Of freight have
not been reduced. except in special in
stances. The rates are fixed by commits
sions. and. as rule they have been de-
manded and received throughout the hard
times. and are stin being obtained.
The free and unlimited coinage Of silver
would not cause prices Co rise unless sill
yer became the standard. If the cur
rency were based upon silver there is no
doubt that prices would be higher. but
the farmer or the manufacturer would
cause the silver ne would receive for his
products would not purchase any more
than can be purchased by the money he
now receives.
But n silver should become the standard
how would the railroads be affected?
Would not the conditions that would then
exist be harder for them than present
conditions? We are confident they would.
and for this reason: The prices Of all
kinds Of railroad supplies would at once
advance greatly. They would he double
what they are now unless the bullion
value of silver should rise. Not only
would the prices OF railroad supplies adj
vance but labor would demand an increase
Of wages, because of the increase in the
cost Of living. But would railroad rates
advance? We think not. The rates are
fixed by railroad commissions and the
commissions could not be induced TO in
crease the rates. What would be the re-
suit? The expenses of operating the rail-
roads would be almost double what they
are now and their earnings would be about
the same. Assuming that there would be
a little increase in business it would be
nothing like the increase in the cost of
operating the roads. With such state
Of affairs even the most solvent roads
would become bankrupt.
The mistake the silvertes make is the
assertion that the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver would cause prices to
rise without forcing the country to n
silver standard. They offer no argument
TO sustain that assertion. There is no
argument to sustain it. There is vastly
more money now in circulation than there
is any demand for. The banks are stuffed
with It and It is being offered at remark
ably low rates of interest Money is not
scarce and dear. 1t is plentiful and cheap.
As long as the country was on gold
basis the free and unlimited coinage of
silver would not noticeably influence
prices.
Railroad managers are not demanding
the free silver coinage. They know that
II silver should become the standard their
financial troubles would be far greater
than they have yet been.

Senator Hin ought 10 have himself In
terviewed and tell the country why he
had the confidential letter written to Mr..
Howell nearly two years ago published. Is
he again a candidate for the presidency
and does he think the letter shows he was
wiser than some OF his democratic con-
tcmporaries2
II is true that some things have hap
pcned in accordance with the senator's
predictions. but 81 is not an unusual thing
for public man TO make correct guesses.
The publication Of tho letter has more
significance than appears on the surface.
II looks like the Inauguration Of boom
for the senator for the presidential nomi-
nation Of his party This particular time
may be thought to be favorable for direct
ing the attention Of the Democratic party
TO him.
There is way. however. in which the
senator can do more toward boosting him
self into prominence as a presidential can
didate than 10y publishing old letters that
were written In confidence. Let him guide
the country out of its present financial
difficulties. and his fellow citizens will be
willing to regard him as "A statesman
worthy Of any place in their gift. He
has already shown himself 10 be a shrewd
and successful politician. Now let him do
something to prove TO them that he is
big enough man TO be President.
AS yet ne has done nothing TO command
the confidence Of his party. Since he has
been in Washington he has distinguished
himself only as an objector. lie has been
in opposition to his party. He has not been
leader and he is the author OF no impor-
tant legislation. For two years there has
been a call for statesmen, but he has not
responded. He has not even made sug-
gestion relative to an important issue that
has fastened itself in the public mind
He seems to have recognized the fact
that he has done nothing to warrant his
party in looking to him as it's standard
bearer in 1895. and has therefore fshed
from its pigeon hole this old letter to
show the country that as long ago as
the summer of 1898 he saw that the times
would become harder before they would
be better
Let the senator originate a banking
and currency bill that his party will ac-
cept, and with which the country will
be satisfied, and he will have taken a long
step In the direction of the presidency.
