Government Redemption.

1t Is constantly assumed by some TIA,

Sre"nhacks, and treasury notes Issued
under the act Of 1900 are responsible for
the recent drain upon the gold reserve.
but this assumption Is entirely without
foundation. The fault does not lie with
the sreenbacks and the treasury notes.
but rather with the executive officers who
nave seen NJ 70 surrender q right which
should have been exercised for the pro-
lection OF the interests OF the people We
are iold that any attempt upon the part
OF the government to redeem its obI'Ka-
ions in silver would put n premium upon
gold. But why should Il? The Bank Of
france exercises the right to redeem all
bank paper In esther COLO or silver, aud
yet France maintains the parity between
goii and silver a. a ratio Of 1874 20 l.
ana retains in circulation more silver
per capita than we do
II may be further answered that uur
opponents have suggested no feasible
plan for avoiding the danger which hey
rear. The retirement Of greenbacks and
treasury notes would not protect The
treasury, but the same policy which now
leads the secretary Of the treasury to
redeem all government paper in gold
when gold Is demanded will require the
redemption Of ali silver dollars and silver
certificates In gold. II the Ereenbacks ana
