Sketch in Congress 1873.

The difficult problem is what
we shall do when we aim to re-
establish silver without the Co
operation of European powers
and really an advance movement
to coerce those powers into the
same policy. Evidently the first
dictate OF prudence is to coin
such a dollar as will not only dc
justice among our citizens at
home, but will prove a protection
AN almost barricade- against
the gold monometallists of Eu-
rope. who. whenever the oppor.
tunity offers, will quickly draw
from US the sl6o,ooo,ooo of gold
coin we now hold.
If we coin silver dollar of
full legal tender. obviously be.
low the current value of the gold
dollar, we are simply opening
our doors and inviting Europe to
take our gold. With our gold
flowing out from us we shall be
forced TO the SINGLE SILVER
STANDARD and our relations
with the leading commercial
countries of the world will be not
onlyembarrassed. but crippled.
1.-The question before Congress
then-sharply defined in the
pending house BILLS. whether
it is now safe and expedient to
offer free coinage to the silver
dollar of 4l24 grains, with the
minis of the Latin union closed
and Germany not permitting sill
yer to be coined as money.
At current rates of silver, the
free coinage of a dollar contain.
ing 4124 grains, worth in gold
about SO cents, gives an 1LLEGI-
INNATE PROFIT TO THE OWNER
OF THE BULLION, ENABLING HIM
TO TAKE 50 CENTS WORTH OF
1T TO THE MINT AND GET IT
STAMPED AS COIN AND FORCE
HIS NEIGHBoR TO TAKE IT AS A
FULL DOLLAR. This is an un-
fair advantage which the gov
ernment has no right to give to
the owner Of silver bullion, and
which deirauds the man who is
forced to take the dollar. 1t as
suredly follows that If we give
free coinage to this dollar of in
ferior value and put it in circula.
ton, we do so at the expense OF
our better coinage in gold (; and
unless we expect the invariable
experience of other nations to be

ed for our peculiar benefit, We
inevitably lose our gold coin. Il
will flow out fron us with the
certainty and force of the tides.
What gain, therefore should
we make for the circulation

There is no country in the world

The farmer is urged to SUP port
free silver on the ground that
his products have gone down
with the gold standard and would
rise with the silver standard.
They would not rise as fast. nor
as much, as the things hehas to

Let it not be forgotten, also, as
a matter of history, that for
nearly % years before the war
we had a gold standard, aud no
metal money but legal tender in
sums Of over i've dollars. This
was the effect of slightly under
valuing silver so that none came
to the mint for coinage. So now
for a like period gold has been
the legal standard, but in addi-

people are told that silver has
been demonetized and that free
silver will give US a bimetallic
currency.
Nor will it be possible to pass
through this change without the
panic. the business dislocation,
the paralysis of enterprise that
always attend a great and sudden
change in the standard ofvalue3
and disappoint the expectations
of those who hope to pay past
debts in cheaper money.

as many as possible of the customers
that this was not a clearance sale OF

Wong Kim Ark, a young Chinaman
who is now trying to gain a foothold
on California soil, having just arrived
from China, but who has been refused
by Collector Wise, claims to be an
American born citizen, and United
States Judge Morrow had decided
that he is such.
Mr.. Ark has proven to the satisfaction
of the court that he was born in Sacra-
mento in 1873, and that he went to
China a year ago on visit. Collector
Wise, however, does not admit that a
| native-born descendant of Mongolian
parents is a citizen, and will appeal to
the Supreme Court from the decision of
Judge Morrow
If this young Chinaman should be de-
ciared to be a citizen, then there are
several thousand Chinese citizens in this
State, and of course they will be entitled
to the ballot. And if this should come
to pass, what a scramble there will be
among candidates for Office to secure
the Chinese votei What a picnic"
George Rider will have whenever a

course, in conventions, but not by the
