to be in circulation, is but promise
to pay money, is redeemable in gold.
and is not money in its own right and
therefore not money at an. 1t is no more
money than a bill of fare is a din
ner, and ought not to be accounted
as such. That is the answer to the
secretary's showing.
This answer cuts down the amount
of money outside the United States
treasury. and for that reason supposed
to be in circulation (although it is not,
for very much of it is held in reserve
in the banks, national and private,
and in private loardings) to S4S4,72S,-
547. Add to this the $S5, 1878. 1872 of gold
in the treasury on the first day Of
January, 1885, and it makes the total
amount of money in the United States
but $56S. LOG. 1888. Allowing that there
was seventy millions Of populations on
the date given, it reduces the inflated
per capita of $2235 to less than 50
per capita.
Nor is there any way by which this
answer can be contradicted. Gold alone,
under our present system Of administer
ing our finances, is regarded as re-
demption money in the United States,
and the whole $2,197. 900, 2S6-minus the
$56S, 100000 of gold itself-reported
money of the nine different forms, is
all dependent upon the small basis Of
gold that stands for its redemption.
Everybody knows that such a finan-
fol n &c -
let is constantly falling-money ap-
preciating, and property in relation
thereto falling. Under such conditions
capital is timid, and seeks its hiding
places for security rather than oppor-
tunities for investment in productive
enterprises. The very fact that on a
government call for $100,000,000 on a
basis of about 31s per cent per annum,
five and a half times the amount was
offered, shows clearly the condition of
capital in the United States, and
proves it to be not only timid but
cowardly; and that because it is fear
full that If invested in productive or
development enterprises, it would never
be able to gain by it.
Ihere is no need TO accuse secretary
Carlisle with classifying his figures to
crush the argument the single gold
standard people think they see in his
report to the senate. It is answered
by the fact that of real miney. accord
ing to his figures, there is less than SO
per capita in this country instead of
$22.55. hence not enough money to
bro, or f1aa ~ he
and hence the necessity of setting the
minis at work in coming silver as
well as gold.

wmroRp woopRUFF.

Eighty-nine years ago today. in the
little town of Pennington, low called
Avon. Hartford county, Connecticut,
MILFORD Woodruff. the venerable Presi-
dent of the Mormon church. was born.
There will be thousands of people in
Utah today who will remember this
fact and couple it with sentiments of
profoundest esteem for Milford Wood
ruff. To the members of the church
over which he presides, Mr.. Woodruff
is Of course held in especial honor; for
in their minds the high ecclesias-
teal Office he holds adds something to
the man. But while they will honor
him for his official position as well as
for the virtues of the man, there is
enough in the man himself, in the
sturdy virtues of his character and
the downright, simple honesty of his
life, that challenges the admiration of
the people of Utah irrespective of re-
ligious connections.
President Woodruff is today the
greatest living pioneer in Utah, and
for matter of that, in the United
States. He accompanied Brigham
Young in that wonderful journey
of the Mormon pioneers across the
plains, and with him entered Salt Lake
valley ON the 24th of July. 1S47. 1t was
his hand that planted the first seed
in this state, and from then until now
he has shared the tolls and hardships
attendant upon the settlement Of
new country. He has seen the wilder
ness of Utah during the half century
since first he entered it, transformed
into a prosperous state Of the Ameri-
can Union The land he found a des-
ert he has seen converted into fields
and gardens and filed with villages
and towns in whose streets the merry
laughter of happy children is to be
heard.
1t is a wonderful century with which
President Woodruff's life almost runs
parallel. Since his birth steam
has won its triumph over sea
and land, making of the
oceans convenient highways be-
tween the continents, and of the land
network of highways iron banded,
The electric telegraph within the per-
iod of his life has annihilated distance
and bound all the nations together in
instant communication; and later, it
has been made possible for friend to
converse with friend in familiar
tones though separated by hun
dreds of miles; and later
still mysterious agent has been dis
covered by which sight may penetrate
solid and apparently opaque sub
stances. Men have advanced within
President Woodruff's day from the
taIlow dip to the electric light; from
the prairfe-schooner to the tightening
express train; from the sailing ship
that required six weeks to cross the
Atlantic to the ocean steamer that
does it in less than that number of
days; from the pony courier to the
electric telegraph and telephone; and
these things have so revolutionized the
life of man that eighty-nine years of
life, if measured in what IS seen, felt
and accomplished. equals the life of
the old Bible patriarchs who lived as
much Of a millennium as President
woodruff has of a century.
The Herald joins in wishing the
venerable Utah pioneer many happy
returns of this day-the anniversary
of his birth.

THE BIBLE IN THE SCHOOLS.

Much discussion has been revived of
late IN relation TIC restoring the prac-
tice of reading the Bible in the public
schools. On the 18th Of February,
twenty-six Protestant ministers, con
shutting about half the membership
Of the Ministers Alliance in Kansas
City, Mo-, adopted a resolution asking
the board of education to restore the
Bible to the public schools; and though
at the last the action was made in
their capacity as individuals, rather
than as members of the Ministers Al
lance, it nevertheless stands as one
among many other evidences that such
an agitation is afoot. We hope it will
not become general, and we believe it
will not. We do not think there will
be restoration of the Bible to the
public schools. There is no occasion
for it. 1t will not increase the respect
for the Bible to have it read in the
public schools. In most cases it would
become mere matter of form, unat-
tended by any sentiment OF reverence,
much less devotion; and the Bible read
plishes no good, and may do much
harm. For sacred things treated in
an irreverent manner become so pro-
famed as to loose their sacredness alto
gether.
Then, while our schools may do much
for the training of our youth, it must
never be supposed they can do all
There are other institutions for the
education of the youth of our land
besides the schools, in which reverence
for the Bible and respect for its pre-
cepts may be inspired. Chief among
these is the home, where daily Bible
readings may be so conducted by those
anxious to train their children in a
respect for it's divinity as to beget pro
foundest regard for it's sacredness, and
obedience to its precepts.
There is a practice in many Chris
tian homes of daily reading a chapter
in the Bible, usually followed by
prayer, a custom that must ever be
beautiful in the eyes of earnest Chris
tians, and it occurs to US that if those
jealous Christian ministers who are so
anxious to restore the Bible to the
schools, would urge home reading of
the Bible until, among Christians at
least, the custom became universal, we
feel sure they would do more towards
employing the Bible as a factor in
creating right and deep religious SEN
timents then by spending in vain their
strength to restore the Bible to the
schools. Let the homes Of our land
be made the centres of religious and
moral instruction and we can well dis
pense with efforts to bring back Bible
reading to the schools-a proposition
about which the American people
never will agree

THE KENTUCKY SENATORIAL CON-
TEST.

The one interesting political event In
the country aside from the doings of
congress is the senatorial contest in
Kentucky. It has gone along week In
and week out with no result. AT last
DR.. Hunter, the Republican candidate,
has Withdrawn, says a dispatch to the
Louisville Post. This Is all the infor-
nation conveyed. If correct, it is very
important and may put new phase
on the whole matter. 1t may mean
that some deaf has been made where
by a Republican is to be elected; de-
velopments alone can tell whether this
is so. At all events it will give a new
turn to the contest.
That Senator Blackburn would long
before this have been reelected had
not it been for the adverse influence
of Secretary Carlisle and the admins
tration, there is no doubt. Mr.. Car
Isle made a campaign through the
state last summer in the interest of
the principles of sound money and it
had its effect. 1t was generally be-
ieved that he did this at the behest
of Mr.. Cleveland. To advocate 'sound
money" as understood by these two,
was to advocate the throwing down
Of Senator Blackburn, who is a free
coinage man. It was as plain a dec
Iaration as could be that In their eyes
Sound money" was paramount to
everything else, even the supremacy
of the Democratic party in the state
of Kentucky. Thus far they have not
triumphed, but they have put Black
hurn's chances in great jeopardy.

our senators. who, in their zeal for par

Tariff and Silver.

The Republican senators admit that
tariff without recognition of free silver
is an impossfbility. and yet they are de-
termined that silver shall not be recog-
nized. The west now holds the balance
of power and 1t should use it in every
way possible to bring that relief to us so
long denied by the east.-Mt. Pleasant
