The same old story is afloat again. 1t
has all the familiar earmarks Of confer
ences of railway magnatcs. a structure that
is to cost several million dollars, abolition
of grade crossings and all the other beau
tfui things that have been alluringly
dangled before our eyes and sounded into
our ears ever SO many times. This time.
however, no particular locality is men
toned, although the familiar millions Of
expenditure, the abolition of grade cross
ings, and all the rest are trotted out again.
1t is possible, of course, that the thing is
really going to happen, but it would not be
well for anybody to make very large
wager upon it, any more than upon the
promise that the new city postoffice Is
going to be completed from cellar to gar
ret next year.
That Washington ought to have Just such
grade crossings should all be abolished
does not admit of dispute. Nobody does
dispute either the one or the other, but
it would be ever SO much more gratify-
ing to see beginning made than to hear
SO much talk about it, for the old adage
is most applicable here that talk is cheap.
but it takes money to buy bricks" There
have been mnumerable consultations and
paiavers between railroad officials and
committees of Congress, and the matter
is likely to come up again this winter,
but the people of Washington may be eS-
cused il they are somewhat skeptical
as regards tangible results, the past having
taught them not to be oyer-sanguine in
that respect At the same time they
should not cease importuning Congress to
enact such legislation as may be required
to make the railroad companies sensible
of their obligations to the travelling pub
lie generally and to the people of the Dis
trict particularly.
The morning times., 1896-12-01
THE
CENTRAL
AMERICAN
REPUBLIC.

of our continent 1t is hoped that before
long Guatemala and Costa Rica will also
Join this confederation, in which event
it will come to be known as the Republic
of Central America.
In modified way the federation of the
three States first named is modelled upon
that of the United States. the local laws
of each remaining in force where they do
not conflict with such laws as may be
enacted by the central legislative body. AT
the present time. however, nothing more
appears to have been contemplated, and
the new federation represents little else
than an alliance for mutual protection
against outside pressure. Thenecessity for
Internal cohesion as a factor in the pro-
motion of common and reciprocal interests
does not yet seem to have been contem-
plated.
Nothing appears more probable, however,
than in course of time these republics and
also Costa Rica and Guatemala will find
IL TO thelr advantage TO form closer
bond. As in regard to external relations
they find that in union there is strength, so
the conviction will be forced upon them
by observation that their internal affairs
will prosper better through a community
of interest. Their statesmen also will soon
come to the conclusion that the present ar
rangement lacks the element of stability
because it contemplates cohesion chiefly in
the matter of defense against aggression
from the outside. At the same time it is
an important experiment. the issue of
which will be watched with unusual in
bors.

PAYING
FOR THE
SILVER
CRAZE.

gress has done little else than discuss
tariff and financial measures. In fact
the public has been wrought into sort
of a frenzy over the protracted debate
and our Treasury has been legislated into
a condition of financial decline.
The passage OF the Dingley bill and the
levying of an additional tax of one dollar
per barrel on beer will increase our revenues
iically stop the deficit 1t is low conf
IDENTIFY asserted that President Cleveland
will allow such u measure TO become
law, and if defeated a all it will be done
! by the silvcrite Senators
The Dineley bill i'll its present form is
not a revenue measure. The Finance Com
for the revenue clauses and it is Tow in
order for the Senate to either pass or
recommIt it with or without instructions.
This bill was passed by the House last
December and its operations Were limited
to August /, 1897, provided it became Il
law in that form The first two sections
impose duty of 60 per cent on wool and
wcollen manufactures, and also a duty
of so per cent Oh lumber and its manufac-
lures The last section provides for n
| horiz ontal advance of 3 per cent on the
schedules of the Wilton law except those
of lumhe and Dol, rs above Indicated
The object OF this bill was to temporarily
meet the deficit created by the loss of the
income tax, but the silver Senators saw
| fit to defeat its passage in order to force
another bond sale to influence the election
| in favor of free silver. The total deficit
since the Senate Finance Committee killed
the bill by attaching free coinage rider
| to it has been $4,000 ,0OO The Treasury
| report of yesterday shows deficit OF
$40. $40. $50, and it is likely that the loss
| during the preceding five months was fully
! as great.
Should these same Senators prevent the
passage of the Dingley bill at the coming
session OF Congress no other revenue meas
IRE can possibly he enacted before next
| June, and another interval of seven months
OF Treasury deficit will then have elapsed
Estimating this loss At the rate of SIS .ooo,-
| COO a month, which seems To be about the
| average. the malicious obstinacy of the
| silver Senators will then have added $50 :
! 600 900 more to our public debt. During
| catedthc Treasury deficit will have reached
n grand total of over S136 600 900
every dollar Of which Will be added to lhe
dearly for the sil~er craze?
