not myself approve of this plan, as 1 be-

Presid, nts Message.

PRESIDENT Cleveland, in view ofthe 6nan-
ca: &c IA ivu, mas sent spec al message to
Congress recommending legislation which,
in his opinion will bring relief.
The Presidents plan. in brief. is as follows:
Issue per cent. tifiy-year bonds Of $50.
aud $50. and their martip es, principal and
interest payable in god; rsrire legaltender
and treasury notes; permit banks to issue
notes of not less than $40. to the face value
OF bonds deposited, except 2 7cr cents; re-
place silver certificates Of $40 and over by
silver certifoates Of less denominations;
make import duties payable in gold only
The President renews his resolve 10 main
tain the public credit in any event
We do not see how ,Li, measure would
remedy the evil. 1t would un loubtedly give
temporary relief as did the two former bend
issues, aud has this further good feature, it
provides against the reissue OF redeemed
notes; but we fear it will be TO us only like
cold woter TO one with fever-delightful at
first, but followed by tad effects. We do
not see what would hinder the gold men
from buying the bonds, and then immediate
ly Withdrawing the gold and compelling
bond issues continually until the govern
msnt is saddlsd with n debt Of from $500
100000, to $70O,OOO,0OO.
A bill has been introduced smbodying
the Presidents ideas. But with the oppo.
sition that it will NEE. from the silver men
it will undoubtedly stick in the Senate if
not in both houses.
