PENSIONS FOR PosToFFICE EN-
pLOYEES.

1t seems that the house committee
on postoffices is in favor of the propo-
sition to pension the government letter
carriers when, for any cause, they be-
come incapcitated for further service.
For this purpose it is probable that a
bill will be introduced within few
days.
Under the bill[itwo per cent of the
salaries of the carriers is to be de-
Quoted annually and turned into a
common fund. IN other words, the
carriers are to be forced to provide a
pension for themselves and the gov
eminent will be so good as to take
care of it for them; in other words,
the government will take the credit of
pensioning them when they become in
capaoitated or superannua ted. If they
are to be pensioned, let them be pen
stoned by the government at it's and
not their expense.
The whole scheme is wrong. The
carriers can look. after their own in
terests better than the government
can. 1t is direct paternalism. The
government at Washington all the
while tends to become more and more
centralized. This Capitalization of
power can only end in depriving the
people of many Of their rights, and be-
gets in those who WELD this power a.
mistrust and want of faith in the
people, which in turn beget a deep and
wen founded mistrust of the govern
ment officials. The people may act
unwisely some times but their wisdom
is always safer and greater than that
of their officials. The government was
not instituted to treat the people aus
as this proposed pension bill
does.

LET THERE DE NO sTRADDLE.

The Chicago Chronicle. discussing
the candidacy of John G. Carlisle,
says:
The convention, if composed of
doughfaces and dunderheads, nincom-
poops and peace-at-any-pric people,
will want as it's candidate a statesman
who has never proclaimed himself I'M
equivocally upon any question, has
| upon all occasions faced both ways.
is on any matter of high concern as
oracular as Jack Bunsby and through
| out his career has never sailed
straight course and sought his ascer-
tanned goal through storm and stress,
but has trimmed the bark carrying
his political fortunes to every passing
breeze. to any apparently favoring
gale.
If the Chicago gathering is to be
such a convention the Chronicle says
he is not the man who will be wanted.
We do not think the Chicago conven-
ton will be such as is here described,
but if it shall be, the probabilities are
that the doughsaces and dunderheads,
nincompoops and peace-at-anypric
people, will be the very ones who will
be voting and shouting for Mr.. Car
Isle because he will be the admins
tration candidate, and the people who
will do the will of the administration
are the kind described Nby the Chron
icle.
In all conventions of all parties there
are peace-at-any- price men. and no
doubt there will be at Chicago in July.
They will not control. The silver men
there (and we believe they will be in
majority will not have peace at any
price; they will have peace at the price
of free coinage, and nothing less. We
take it that the gold standard men
will be satisfied with nothing less than
a declaration in favor of gold as the
standard of our monetary system.
before the convention and all will
know what they are striving for
Let the Democratic party at Chicago
declare in clear and unequivocal terms
either for the free and independent
coinage of silver at 16 to 1, or let it
declare against it Let there be no
more makeshifts about bimetallism
with International agreement, no
double meaning declarations about one
dollar being made as good as another.
Let there be a cessation of the shilly-
shally, mamby-pamby policy of the
past. Whatever else the Chicago con-
vention may do, there should be no
more straddling on the money ques-
ton

INTERNATIONAL BIMETALL1sM.


| In our dispatches Of yesterday
comes the word that there is in Ger
many a disposition of those who be-
lieve in silver as money in that coun-
try, to agitate for an international
convention to fix "a proportion of
value between silver and gold.'
The agitation takes the form of a
resolution drafted by what is known
as the economic committee, not indeed
an organization in any manner a part
of the imperial reichstag, but per-
manent, self-constituted committee
dealing, as, in fact, is implied by it's
name, with economic questions, and
has no other power than that of sug-
costing to the imperial parliament
measures for legislative action. The
action it suggests to the German
reichstag in respect to silver takes the
form of the following resolution:
THE reichstag shall declare that in
ternatIonal bimetallism best answers
the interests of Germany, and requests
the confederal governments German
states) to do all that is in their power
IN order to establish and secure by in
tefnational convention a fixed proper
ton of value between silver and gold"
1t is, Of course, of interest to know
that in European countries there is
still an agitation going on about the
restoration of silver to it's place as one
OF the money metals, even if only in
the way of demanding the calling Of
another international convention; for
1t does at least show that there is rec
ognition of the fact that a great wrong
silver as a money metal was stricken
down: and, second, that there is a
desire to right the wrong, 10 correct
the blunder, however timidly that de-
sire is expressed. But if Germany has
come to the conclusion that Inter
national bimetallism best answers the
interests Of Germany" the best thing
that Germany can do to bring that
about is for Germany to adopt bimet-
allism for Germany; for the shortest
cut to international bimetallism is by
Independent action by the nations.
each for itself.
But at any rate this announcement
on the part of Germany should en-
courage the United States to go on
with its Independent action, for if our
government will but do so, beyond
question other nations would soon join
with US. 1t only requires Independent
action on the part of the United States
to ultimately bring about, and that
before long, international bimetallism.

resolution for sending a United States
fleet to Cuban waters to protect
Americans and prevent Spanish bar
barities, touched the fact squarely as
to the existence of a state of war in
1 Cuba when he said: .'Two-thirds of
the island was within the embrace of
the revolution, the other third was de-
hatable ground, where s6irnishes and
lighting was going on. This, he said,
had not even been touched upon by
Mr. Sherman, although a vital con-
sheraton
Further on he said: Cuba will be
lost to SDain-I retract the will be-
Cuba is lost to Spain, and will never
be regained.' We believe that is a
fact. A country which so short a time
ago passed through war of ten years
duration for freedom, and then so soon
could again take to the tented field in
the cause of liberty, is scarcely apt to
submit TO an authority which is to it
the sign of greed and oppression
Spain is teaching Cuba-nay, has
taught Cuba, that claim of liberty
against Spain is tantamount to high
treason, and submission to such a
government is equivalent to slavery
and where such conditions exist, and
the people love freedom, it is nonsense
to talk of such a government being
permanent, and peaceful; and if gov
eminent cannot be stable and peace
full, then the sooner it is overthrown
and the form of government recast on
lines that will be satisfactory to the
people to be governed the better Nor
is it difficult to conceive the idea that
The time can come where revolt is
continuous, and war the chronic con-
dltlon of the state-ft is not difficult,
we repeat, to conceive the justice of
powerful nations insisting upon a ces-
sation of hostilities and also such ad-
Justment of affairs as shall result in
stable government and reasonably per-
manent tranquility
Spain should know by this time the
truth announced long ago by Edmund
Burke, that the use of force alone is
but temporary. 1t may subdue for a
moment; but it does not remove the
necessity of subduing again; and a
nation is not governed which is per-
petuatly to be conquered"
