Speaker Reeds assignments of
committees are almost univsr-
sally commended by Western
members. The section west of the
Missouri River received remarkable
recognition at Mr.. Reeds hand,
and the committee list evidences
his desire to be more generous than
any of his predecessors with that
great Republican section of the
country reaching westward between
the river and the ocean.
Delegate Cannon of Utah was
assigned to the committees which
he had requested, by other dele
gates. They are unusually good
appointments for a nsw member
and Delegate, and will be filled
by Mr.. Allen when he reaches
here on the LIST of next month.
Mr. Cannon is given tenth place
on Mines and Mining and Coinage,
Weights and Measures, aud seven
teenth place on the Committee on
Agriculture.

sAAa " -R1G&s
We think the following on
the Silver question, which
we clip from the Los Ange-
les Erpress, worthy "a place
in our columns.
When our friends who believe
the less money we have in the
country the richer we will he, are
talking learnedly about intrinsic
value" they always forget, or con-
veniently neglect to tell us what
they mean by the term. We have
pointed out before in these COL
umns that gold has no great intrin-
sic value aside from its use as
money. 1t is not used to build
houses, like iron; it cannot be
eaten, like wheat; it does not serve
for clothing like wool or cotton.
AS money it is no more useful
than silver; in fact it is not as USE
full, for it is softer and wears away
sooner. But we are told that if
you melt ten-dollar gold piece
you still have ten dollars in metal,
but that if you melt ten dollars in
silver you only have five dollars
Why this difference? Docs it
not lie wholly in the fact that you
can take your lump of gold to the
mint and get new eagle for 10,
while you cannot do that with your
lump Of silver? If the government
would treat the two metals alike,
would their intrinsic value not be
| the same? If you could take the
silver in silver dollar to the treas
ury and get a silver dollar fer it, al
you can with the gold in dollar
gold piece, would intrinsic value
not be their equal to their coin in
value?
! If coming silver at ratio of 1f
to l is dishonest, is Great Britain
honest when she coins American
silver into dollars at the ratio Of
Is to l, and uses them in her Chin
csc and Asiatic trades?
If Great Britain can proftably
buy American silver, coin into sill
YER dollars and use it in the east
why cannot the United States dc
the same thing and make the profit
and get the trade as we'll?
| If free silver would deluge thu
United States with the silver O.
the world, why is it that Mexico
does not suffer from a deluge o
that character at present? why il
she exporting instead of importing
silver, and silver dollars at that
Why is it that there is no deluge
in China and Japan, but they are
forced to import Mexican dollars
which pass through this city 800.
900 at time, almost every week
on their way from Mexico to Asia
Why would Europe send her sill
YER money, now coined in the rate
of Is to l, to this country to b,
coined in the ratio Of 16 to l?
How could countries which pro
duced no silver deluge those which
produced it ALP
How could Europe manage with
out her silver money? VIVA
would take its place?
These are a few questions sug
gested by gold-bug theories whicl
we should be glad to have somo o
our monometallic contemporaries
and friends to answer, if the
can.

ALONE IN THE HEAVENS.

Lieut., A. G. Totten, whose
fondness for astrological ealcula-
tons and differences is well
known, declares in Harper's
Weekly that the trouble with
current affairs is not due TO The
Udited States senate, the bicycle,
the new woman, or the silver
question, but may be accurately
traced TO the contortions of Tie
heavenly bodies. He says that
when too many Of the planets gel

same time, IL makes trouble for
the earth, and that now, for the
first time in the history Of man,
all the planets, except Earth, are
approaching coincident perihelia

be in line Juggling away at tbt

A VICTORY FOR SILVER.

The silver men are in control
of the Chicago convention, as
was clearly demonstrated by
the adoption Of the minority re.
port in regard to chairman yes
terday. The majority report
recommended that David B.
Hill, a gold bug Of New York,
be nominated temporary chair
man. and the minority reports
recommended Senator j. w.
Daniels, of Virginia. The ques.
ton Yves submitted to the con-
vention and Senator Daniels
was nominated by vote of 55f
to $40. These figures represent
the strength Of the gold ond sill
yer forces, with the exception
of Is votes for silver which are
contested. Even giving the
gold men the rs contested vote:
this will only give them 574 e
Sc for silver. Necessary to ;
choice for president 466. Thu
silver men have plenty and Il
spare.

Gold Men will Bolt.

CHICAGO, July Bolt was the
sologan Of $50 democrats at a
meeting OF the gold standard men
tonight. Not a bolt from the con-
yention-that was decided against,
but bolt from the ticket and the
platform that the convention
makes. Every such suggestion
was received with applause. Every
contrary suggestion was received
in silence.
This Is the significant resolution
suggested by 9. W. Irish, Of Cal
ifornia, and adopted. "that I
sound money delegation select |
member to return to his state anC
get the views Of his party on Id,
matter and report back TO th,
c iairman Senator Gray in Jul!

ZONE At A TIME !"

The following was taken
from the Harper Round Table:
A ticket-seller in a theater
once owned a parrot that was
quick at learning to repeat the
phrases he heard. Thus, among
other things, he was soon able
TO exclaim, "one at a time,
gentlemen! one at a time,
pleaser' for this sentence was
constantly in the mouth Of his
msster. The ticket man went to
the country for a summer vaca,
ton aud took the educated par.
rot along with him. One day
the bird got out Of his cage and
disappeared. His owner search,
ed all about for him, and finally
toward evening found him de,
spoiled Of half his feathers sit
ting far out on the limb of {
tree. while a dozen crows were
pecking al him whenever they
could get a chance. And al
this time the poor parrot, will
his back bumped up, was edginI

says that over in Georgetown,
which, although a part of the
city of Washington, still retains
its ancient name, there is beau-
tiful Oak Hill cemetary. The
name conveys a literal idea of
the place. On a hillside of slop-
ing green, falling away to the
waters of Rock Greek, and
shaded by the spreading
branches of huge old oaks, are
the tombs of many men famous
in the history of this country.
1t is said that during MI.
Blaine's residence in Washing
ton it was his frequent habit to
take a stroll through beautiful
Oak Hill, and that here he could
throw off the burdens of affairs
of state when they became too
oppressive. On one of these
occasions he observed a large
hickory tree whose top had been
snapped squarely off in a storm.
The trunk was still sound, and
up to the break the tree was
beautiful and symmetrical. Mr.
Blaine is said to have remarked
to the companion of his walk
that the tree was a fitting
emblem of his life, a sturdy and
luxurious growth up to a certain
point and then a square break.
Later he purchased the lot
which includes the tree, and
there he was buried. At the
foot of the tree stands the Gus,
tomary small marble marker
with the initials, 81. G. B.
At the head Is the hickory tree
and nothing else. And thus i
happens that no stately monu
ment with glowing inscription
marks the grave of this great
and illustrious man. BY his sid,
J are buried his eldest son, WalkeI
Blaine, whose death was such
tremendous blow to the father
