Upon this Col. Thomas OBrien TOOK
the floor to say that, in his OPINION, IL
would be unwise and injudicious to COM
nit the Association to this advanced
statement at this time. In his Judg-
ment, the entire agitation Tor single

ton and origin, was upheld by wall
street. under foreign influences, and
was wholly in the interests or the cred
itor classes and against Amerlcanlsm
and American ideas and American mae
pendence and progress. He depreca-
ted the introduction of the resolutions
and hoped they would not prevail
Others favored the resolution, and
after some discussion, further consider

cursion over the Monongahela river

was shown the visitors.
At the night session the resolutions re-
lating to the gold standard, which were
pending when the morning session ad-
journed, were taken up and were amended
after the words gold standard of value
in the first resolution by inserting the
words cor as may he hereafter determined
by international agreement" and in that
shape were adopted unanimously.
Mr.. L. Mallonee, of Grafton, read a pa
per upon the free coinage of silver, in
which the writer made a strong argument
against free coinage at 16 to l.
The topic Interest on Deposits was the
subject of an interesting discussion. the
tendency of which was against the prac-
tice. This led to a consideration of gen.
eral banking methods and to the conclu-
sion that reformation by Congressional
enactment was needed all along the line.
Taxation of banks was also discussed.
The committee on uniform rates OF ex-
change was not ready TO report and was

CONGRESS- ExrRAvAGANCE.

Not only has more money, been ap-
propriated outright by this Congress for
ordinary expenditure for the next fiscal
year than was ever appropriated by any
of its predecessors, but it has mortgaged
the future revenue TO the extent of $780,,
100000 for work to be contracted for,
which is to be paid for out of the rev.
enues OF coming years.
The total of expenditure will be $780,
000,G00 This is a stupendous sum. 1t
would be an object lesson worth while
if the teachers in the public schools
should ask their pupils to show in de-
tail the amount of the expenditure in
volved per month. per day, psr hour
and per minute. In that way the mind
could be better able 10 grasp the stag
gering aggregate. In that way also
the toiling millions might more clearly
understand the strain that is put on the
productive capacity of this great nation
by reckless extravaganza.

the rates were less.
1t is urged by the advocates OF gov
eminent ownership of the telegraph,
that in that case correspondence
could be conducted more cheaply by
telegraph than is now possible, and that
the people would gain immensely by
the process. 1t is believed that the use
of the telegraph can be much more ex-
tended in the ranks of private life than
ii is to-day. According TO Mr.. Depew,
there is less than one Geographic mes
sage annually to each one of the 10000
600 people of the United States, and the
point has bsen reached where the bus
mess can be much extended without in
creasing its expenses.

$4,000 to insure a family against any
serious consequences from an attack Of
