THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQ
UER ON MONEY.


The question OF bimetallism was dis
cussed in the house Of commons recently,
and during the discussion, as reported
III the London Standard Ct March IS,
the chancellor OF the exchequer said,
among other things:
Il have 10 sympathy with the conf
dence With which some persons-not al
ways the best informed persons-lay
down the law on one side and the other
III this matter You may hear mono
metallists speak of bimetallists as if they
must necessarily be lunatics or idiots,
and as If the whole theory which they
hold must be so impossible and wrong
that it is useless to argue against it, On
the other hand, you may hear bimetal-
lists who cannot believe that any one
can oppose their favorite theory, except
on the ground of some selfish interest in
connection with the existing system of
currency in Great Britain.
These are weighty and wise words and
should cause extremists to consider their
own methods We have good illustra-
ton Of the chancellor's words in the
appropriation Of the phrase sound mon
ey' by the monometallists. They com
nit the common folly III debate of as
Stunning the very question III dispute
Every serious man is in some doubt as
to what sound money is. Every thought
full man wants sound money. 1t is not a
question of sound or unsound money
that is III debate, for all want sound
money. 1t is simply the question, What
is sound money!

LIE EARIH CORNERED.

We have heard much Of late years OF
corners in most all Of the commodities
IF life, bat the announcement by q serl-
Gus and competent writer that the earth
IL cGrnered is i sensational statement
that ought to challenge the Senous
Scnity' and prolonged meditation Of
all. Mr.. J. J. Mccain Of 81 Louis has
published Il bool, with the above name,
and lie proceeds to prove that his seem
ingly romantic title is q sad and sober
fact. He makes his appeal to statistics
and other facts, and | shall subjoin a
few of them, for they are pertinent
and present one Of the grayest problems
Of the age.
There are in the United States 90
600, 600 landlcss people These are COM
pcllcd week by week to pay for the priv
ilcgc Of living on the earth, q condition
that is as unnatural as if they should
pay fer breathing the air CT basking i'll
the sunshine And yet our land area IS
not oyerpopulated It could support 20
times as many people III plenty. On the
one hand we have untitled land, on the
other idle people who are willing to
work With this state Of affairs the fol-
lowing statement, taken At random from
the book, IS Significant:
''All wealth comes from and all work
is done Oh land only, and it is the
primary bank Of all riches and the sole
employer Of al labor. Again, we are
brought face TO face with the fact that
Of the II, 000, G0G souls III the country
10, eco, 900 are comfortable, i'll pinching
frugality and settled dependency are
30, 900, O0C, and II, 900, GOO very poor
and destitute,
In 1856 there We're ,449 hOmicides
in this country For II months III 1895
there were : ,9G0 81 other crimes in
creased with even greater ratio and in
sanity is rapidly multiplying
OF the upward Of 3, 600 families as
sisted by the Provident association III
ST. Louis III 1895 over 20 per cent want
ed work and could not get it.
These are sad chronicles, but every
one wants the truth. The facts must be
basis of solution There are in certain
quarters feeble and fruitless attempts to
overlook the situation, but this spirit is
manifestly unfair and puerile and de
serves the pity Of all sensible men.
There are some grave wrongs, and we
can and must right them. Those who
refuse to como to the light give evidence
that they are afraid Of investigation.
The times are past for lodging real is
sues or for wholesale denunciation, bat
every day is ripe for earnest, clear and
forcible presentation CT fact and argu-
ment.

SLICK SPANIARDS.

New York, Dec. 10.-The Worlds
Madrid cable says: The Spanish gov
eminent will frame long statement
on the Cuban question it is said in
political and diplomatic circles, fully
setting forth SPANS rights and giving
the history of the whole disagreement
between this government and Pres
ident Cleveland's administration since
the beginning of the revolt. This
memorandum will be a sort Of indi-
rect reply to the presidents message.
1t will be conveyed simultaneously to
the American and European govern
ments. The press, cabinet and the
leaders of all political parties agree
in thinking that Spain must continue
to avoid giving America the slightest
pretext for taking offense.
They also agree that If Spain should
maintain her present friendly dispo-
sition towards America in official rela-
lions that the whole responsible
ity of rupture if brought about by
the intervention threatened, should
rest entirely with the United States.
