ARMY NEWS.

REPORTED SPECIALLY For THE LIGHT.
Congress has adjourned leaving
the army bills on q back seat.
Private Pheran has been granted
. three months furlough under
the three years act.
The Endeavor people witnessed
the parade Of the cavalry last even
ing In large numbers.
Sergeant Payne troop d, Fifth
cavalry, was discharged this morn
ing on expiration OF term Of SER
vice.
Farrier Quinn, of Troop d, Fifth
cavalry has been promoted to SER
geant and has been placed In
charge OF stables.
Musician Pendleton of the baud
has been granted a three months
leave under the provisions Of the
three years act.
Dress parade will take place this
evening for the Christian Endeavor
people on the upper parade ground
about twenty minutes before sun
set.
Sergeant Mahter, Company G,
Eighteenth infantry, was dis
charged yesterday with twenty
years service. He will re-enlist
for the Ninth infantry.
Private Buerkle discharged from
company G, Twenty-third infantry,
Fort Ringgold, re-enlisted for the
same organization and took four
months furlough for the purpose
Of visiting his parents in Germany.
The question of tearing off the
character of an enlisted man from
q discharge paper upon which 1t
appears that the soldiers record
has been honest and faithful, has
been decided by the war depart
ment. The case in point was that
of a private in Captain Storey's
battery, Fourth artillery. While
the mans services as a soldier,
STRICTLY speaking, were regarded
by Captain Storey as honest and
he was not such a person
as the Captain deemed worthy Of
re-enlistment, on other grounds.
1t appears for one thing, that
the man borrowed money I'M
der false pretenses, and failed
to pay 1t back. In making out
the discharge Captain Storey tore
off the character and his course
was approved by Colonel Frank,
the commandant. Considerable
correspondence was had over the
matter, but it was settled by AS
sistant Secretary of War Doe, who
holds in effect that where q mans
services appear to have been hon
est and faithful his character
should remain on his discharge
papers. This is as 1t should be, for
it cannot be seen how any COM
pany, troop, or battery commander
can have the nerve to set himself
up as the judge OF mans private
affairs. The creditors or others
have the civil courts to look into
matters Of this kind.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being. a
constitutional disease, requires a consti-

Care is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of

be coin of circulation, and is melt
ed by manufacturers of silverware. :"
Congressman Potter, of New York,
opposed the bill, claiming: 'This
bill provides for the making of
changes in the legal tender coin of
the country, and for substituting as
legal tender coin of only one metal,
instead, as heretofore, of two"
Other members in both houses
called attention to the fact that the
bill discontinued the free coinage of
the silver dollar.
We are informed by Mr.. Bryan
that a number of congressman have
testified that they did not understand
the bill. The inevitable conclusion
is that these men were asleep during
the debates or we're intellectually un-
qualified to be in congress, or are
now prevaricating. If Bryan is
elected upon the proposition that the
act of 1873 was ''surreptitiously'' or
"by q conspiracy" passed through
congress he will be elected by false
hood.

THE CRIME OF 1878.

So much has been written and
said, which to a fair mind is conclu-
sive that the act of 1873 was thor
oughly understood in and out of
congress at the time of its passage,
that we supposed the rankest Popu-
list had let go of that crank. But
only few days ago Mr.. Bryan reit-
Grated the oft refuted statement, in
one of his appeals. to popular preju-
dice.
The facts are that the bill was be-
fore congress almost three years. 1t
was first introduced April 25. 1870.
Tt was prepared by John J. Knox,
deputy comptroller of the currency,
not by money lenders or brokers.
Before it was introduced it had been
submitted to boards of trade, cham
bers of congress, government officials
and experts in finance, and when sent
to congress it was accompanied by a
communication which distinctly stat
ed that Its provisions discontinued
The coinage of the 412d grain silver
dollar, and also by the replies which
Mr.. Knox had received from the
bodies and persons to whom it had
been submitted. The passage of the
bill was recommended by three differ
ent reports of the secretary of the
treasury, those of 1871, 1872 and
1873. 1t passed the senate January
10, 1871, and then went to the house
and was printed January 13, 1871.
1t passed the house May 27, 1872,
having been there amended. The
amendments necessitated its return
to the senate. 1t again passed the
senate with amendments January II.
1873; it then went to a conference
committee whose report was adopted
and it finally passed both houses
February y, 1873. It was printed
thirteen different times and the de-
bates in the senate occupy 66 col
umns of the Congressional Globe and
in the house IS columns. The bill
was debated nearly two whole days
in January, 1877. Congressman Kel-
ley, of Pennsylvania, during that de-
bate said: II would like to follow
the example of England and make a
WIDE difference between our gold and
silver coins,and make the gold dollar
uniform with the French system of
weights, taking the grain as the
unit"
Congressman Hooper, of Massa-
chusetts, In a long speech on this bill
in February, 1872, referring to the
discontinuance of the silver dollar,
said: THE silver dollar of 4I23
grains, by reason of its bullion or in
trinsic value being greater than its
nominal value, long since ceased to

argument.

From 1858 to 1859 France had
practically single silver standard by
reason of having over valued silver
in its coinage about II per cent. In
1859 demand in England for silver
to ship to the orient raised the price
above the French coinage ratio and
France went to the gold standard,
and Notwithstanding her enormous
use of gold for coinage purposes,
over 80 per cent of the worlds pro-
ducts, its value as compared with
silver continued to decrease. Will
coinage of the United States change
the price in view of the enormous
amount annually produced?
