ABSURD ECONOMY.

1t proposed to abruptly close the pub
LEGATION of the "Reeords of the War of
the Rebellion" with the issuance of one
or two more volumes.
Several strong influences are at work
to bring about this unjustifable curtail-
ment of a great National work.
The plea made by Mr.. Cannon, Chair
man of the Committee on Appropria-
tions, is economy.
The present head of the Board of
| Publication, Maj. Geo. w. Davis not
the Maj. Geo. Is. Davis who did so much
excellent work for years in that position,
but an entirely new man, who served
through the war in the Quartermaster's
Departments DESTROYS of the honor of
closing up the work at once, with the
least expense.
This feeling is probably shared by the
Secretary of War.
The ex-rebels are strongly in favor of
stopping the publication as soon as pos
sible: The volumes to come, which are
in all stages Of preparation, some being
in the first steps of collation., while others
are actually in type, and completed down
to the final reading of the revised proofs,
deal with parts of the war in which the
Coniederates take the least satisfaction
the final breakup and the treatment of
prisoners of war in the rebel hands.
This last feature is specially import
ant So far there has been much less
reliable data published about the pris-
oners of war than about any other
feature of the war; Though it is known
in general way that the sufferings of
those confined at Belle Isle, Ander-
sonville, Charleston, Florence, Salisbury,
Camp Ford, and other prison-pens were
terrible in the extreme, and that the
loss of life was much greater than in
important campaigns, the official data
so far published is exceedingly meager.
The ex-Confederates naturally desire
that it should continue so.
But the loyal people, whose sons and
brothers helped make up the ghastly
aggregate of 10000 deaths in rebel
prisons, are very earnest in their de-
mand for an official publication of all
the available facts. The country has
certainly as much right to have all these
spread upon the records as the details
of any Of the great battles. Nearly
score of men died in prison, or from the
immediate effects of imprisonment, where
one was killed at Gettysburg. Yet
every scrap of documentary evidence
relating to Gettysburg has been care
fully gathered up and published.
1t is false economy to stop the publ
cation now, because much the greater
part of the expense has already been
incurred in the long work of prepare
ton.
The comrades everywhere should de-
mand at once of Congress that the
publication shall be continued and COM
pleted as originally planned.

THE currency question resolves itself
into this: Before the ignorant and in
competent Wilson began Deforming the
Tariff there was no thought of trouble
in keeping gold in the Treasury and all
kinds of money on parity.

has just entered the stage in which it was half
a century ago in the more progressive Western
Europe That is. the liberals are advocating
that education in the common schools shall be
strictly secular. and religions training be given

all education shall be in the hands of the
priests.

DENVER, September 4.-Mr. c. w. VAR

city. recently wrote Herr Most asking
what his position was on the silver ques-
ton and has received the following reply:
Il have expressed the opinion that at
present gold only. can be used as proper
standard of value because its costs OF
production are staple and alike all over
the world. whereas silver is getting
cheaper every year. If, therefore, the lat
ter might be used as money notwith-
standing the facts stated above. it should
be done according TO its market price
not 16 TO /. but Cat this momenp 80 TO l.
though that would render silver money
very inconvenient. Silver men had better
invent some new articles of luxury make
them fashionable and flood all markets.
That would be the proper way to get RID
of all superfiuity of silver and make II
useful.

San Diego, Calf, Sept. AT the
Populist county convention to-day a
great sensation was caused by l. Wade,
one of the delegates, reading the fol-
lowing letter from Jesse R. Grant, son
Of Gen. L. S. Grant:
San Diego, Calf, September l.
My Dear Judge:-I have noticed with
much interest your withdrawal from the
Democratic party and the espousal Of
the Peoples party. This action meets
my approval s.pce have concluded 10
enroll myself in\the same cause. The
financial plank Of the Republican plat
form must drive from that party any
one who believes as l do, and the alar-
ch,al plank in the Democratic platform
must lose to it any person who believes
in the protection OF American citizens
at home as well as abroad.
The platform Of the Peoples PARTY
has, on the contrary, no objecti 'nabe
principles, and seems to offer a political
home that an American can proudly en-
ter. Yours truly,
JESSE r. GRANT.
Mr.. Grant has been a resident of San
Diego for several years. He has large
property interests here but he takes
little part in public affairs. HIS ,etter
provoked prolonged applause in the
convention.
