copies were struck off in Philadelphia

this publication was really the awak-

There is tradition that Jefferson tried
to get Paine to throw his 'Age of Rea-
son" manuscript into the fire. If he
had he would have been known as a
patriot solely, and there would not be
the slightest doubt in the minds Of the
Philadelphia cOuncilmen as to the
rights of his memorial in the famous
Hall Of Liberty.

by the Hon. Jerre Johnson of Kildare, o
T., and some of the answers being SO In
acurate and misleading, that we ask yoj
to place our correct answers before your

First-''what Is the best treatise on the
money subject?"
Answer-The history of our own coun-
try on the subject of coinage and cur.

experience of other civilized nations alone

Secord-"What is the present volume

tion?'
Answers, TOO o0O,ooo Per capita. So
Third-'Tn order to preserve the gold
standard what amount of gold has the
government purchased?'
Answer-s9s2 $4,000.
Fourth-"Could the United States carry
paper money at par?"
Answer-Yes. At all times; so long as
1t promptly redeemed at par all that was
presented When It failed to do this. It's
paper would be worth Just what trade
and commerce valued st at
Fifth-"Couid the United States coin
and carry the product of our silver mines
at the ratio Of 1s to H.
Answer-This Is very indefinite. A
large part of the product OF our silver
mines IS used in the arts. II our gov
eminent was not carrying a large amount
OF paper. II might be able to carry the
entire silver product of our mines. but
with large amount Of paper. and large

GEN, HARRIS ON WILL TALK.

General Harrison has promised TO
take an active part in the coming cam
paign. The ex-president is not only
an orator but statesman, as every
body knows, a man in whose judgment
the great mass of the Republicans Of
the country have the utmost conf
dence. Few if any mistakes can be
laid at his door. and his consent TO
active participation in the coming
struggle excites the liveliest anticipa-
ton in political circles. The words of
no man not excepting Cleveland, would
go so far as Mr.. Harrison's. Touch
ing the silver question, he announced
in an interview the ether day, that
ii involved so much, was so far-reach-
ing and had so many sides to it that
il would be foolish to attempt in
brief interview 10 set the matter forth.
Before such a man as Harrison, MIR.
Bryan's oratory viii have To conform
TO the facts and be wholly logical or
otherwise his sound periods will prove
his confusion and defeat General
Harrison is not only an orator and a
statesman, but one who believes that
the hope of this nation is in the Re
publican party and in the principles
which il has for SO many years incul-
Gated and maintained In adhering
TO the facts of history he will not fail
OF giving them their proper interpreta-
ton. AS man who has never been
found wanting his consent 10 take an
active part in the campaign viii be
hailed with delight and enthusiasm by
Republicans everywhere.

vented such a contamination. A new
Republican administration will open
up the former negotiations of Presi
dent Harrison and annexation will fol.
low. So all political news from Ha.
wall is of interest to the people of the
United States. The latest report states
that a majority OF the planters are
openly opposing the scheme for annex
alton in favor Of q protectorate by this
country. In other words they seek
to maintain their independence by a
system of reciprocity that shall secure
Hawaii from outside interference, pro-
tect her against internal broils, and in
sure the greatest development Of her
sugar industry
Such an arrangement would doubt
less be profitable to the planters. but
it scarcely reflects the majority opin-
ion in Honolulu. nor is it likely to Sc
cure favorable consideration at Wash
ington If the Hawaiian question Is
revived under President McKinley-as
it is not unlikely to bet will he re-
vived on the basis which appealed so
strongly to the Harrison administra-
ton. The protectorate is too near an
approach to colonial system to tempt
this republic. 1t would be inviting
foreign complications which it is no
part Of American policy to seek. The
people would not indCrSe such @ de
parture.
