REVIVING CURRENCY AGITATION.

Having labored diligently to start a new agl-
tation Of the currency question, sundry journals
and bankers manifest an inexplicabe surprise
because the fanatics who have been demanding
more money" and the cheaper the better, have
promptly started up agitation on their side
That was TO be expected as the inevitable conse.

legaltender notes which form n large part of
the actual circulation. and the only part wholly
controlled by Government and guaranteed by
It's pledge TO pay on demand dollar in gold for
every dollar Of notes presented. Again the cry
Is raised that the moneyed class Is trying to get
into its own exclusive control the circulating

to say that such fears are unreasonable II ~

Itself Is never OF one mind regarding the ex-

many OF that class always have ventures upon
which they need to realize, and hence favor ex-

inc largo sums from the State Treasury for this
purpose and no small sum Will make any III"
terial contribution to road Improvement. Inc
local authorities are likewise reluctant TO as
sumo the expense Of road-making. But the con-
victs can be employed IN this work without
bringing any burden apon the taxpayers. Iheir
labor IS not expected to be highly rcmunerative.
When we abolished the contract labor system
we gave I'D the idea Of profit except as M III
cident to prison management. 1t Is possible
that the development Of diversified industries
Under the limitations Of the Constitution might
In time prove profitable. but that Is purely
matter of speculation. and such problematic re-
turns may well be ignored for the sake of the
plain benefits to he derived from devOting the
labor of the convcts to useful public WORKS
which would not otherwise be undertaken on
any adequate scale.
Experiments already made prove that the in
mates Of our prisons can be employed on ROAD
making to advantage. The employment III
wolves healthfu outdoor labor of character
which, while hard enough to be irksome-and
that Is what the law cOntemplates In a sentence
to hard labor-is at the same time varied enough
TO avoid developing any morbid mental Ten
denotes At present It might he necessary 10 re-
strict the field Of labor TO the vicinity OF the
prisons, but there is no good reason why every
part of the State should not in time have its
share of convicf-made roads. The railroads.
often carry gangs Of their own men many miles
daily to lay track and shovel gravel. and the
cOnyicts might make use OF work trains TO
carry them to a considerable distance from the
Dlaces of confinement Beyond that camps
might be established where the work was TOO
far from prison for daily transportation. The
objections made TO this are not on the ground
of practicability. but on the ground of senti-
ment. 1t is the same feeling which prompts
objection to the employment of convicts any
where outside Of prison walls. This notion has
no good basis in reason. The reforms against
prison abuses begun by Howard in England,
and carried on so persistently by Wines In this
country. have been OF undoubted benefit. but
with the good accomplished has come a maudlin
sentimentality over the sensibilities or prison
ers. We treat them rs self-cOnscious person
ages, who must be secluded in their disgrace
and not subjected to the scrutiny Of the public.
And on the other hand, the public has been edu-
Gated into thinking that it can avoid the knowl-
edge Of crime by making itself unconscious of
criminals Both phases Of this sentimentaty
we can afford TO ignore. 1t will not hurt the
convicts to be seen on the roads and it will not
hurt honest people TO see them there. BY this
method we can secure some valuable public
works and provide more constant, absorbing and
healthfu labor for cOnvicts than is likely to bc
secured for them in any other way which does
not involve long series of preparation and
doubtful experiments.

SPEECHES THEORDER
Little Progress Was Made on the
Tariff Bill on That Account.
CANNON SPEAKS FOR THE FARMER.
Wants an Export Bounty Placed on Ag-
ricultural Products-He Is Seconded
by senator ButIer--some Nomina-
tions That Were Confirmed.

Washington, June 10.-The senate had
a period Of tariff speeches, and as a re-
suit little progress was made on the
bill. Mr.. Rawlins of Utah and Mr.
Mills Of Texas discussed the Democrat
ic attitude on the tariff from their re-
spective standpoints. Mr.. Rawlins was
a member Of the platform committee
Of the Chicago convention and propos-
ed the tariff plank which was adopted.
He held that the vote he and several
other Democratic senators had cast for
duties on cotton and other agricultural
products was justified by that platform
and by the traditions of the party.
Mr.. Mills severely arraigned the bill
as a class measure, designed to build
up a vast fund for distribution among
the benefciaries Of the bill and at the
expense of the forgotten man" the
taxpayer. He indirectly criticised those
Democratic senators who voted for the
amendments to the bill putting a tax
on cotton and other articles, contending
that their course was a radical de-
parture from the tenets Of Democ-
racy.
Mr.. Cannon of Utah proposed an
amendment placing an export bounty
on agricultural products. He spoke for
two hours on the need of giving the
farmer share of the benefits of the
tariff. Mr.. Butler of North Carolina
also spoke in favor of giving the farmer
equal benefits with other classes under
the bill. Only half a page of the bill,
covering four brief and comparatively
unimportant paragraphs (229 to 23S),
were disposed of during the day.
The senate has confirmed the follow
ing nominations: Henry L. Wilson Of
Washington to be minister TO Chile,
John G. A. Leishman of Pennsylvania
to be minister to Switzerland, Lawrence
Townsend of Pennsylvania to be min
lister to Portugal. Andrew d. Barlow Of
Missouri to be consul general at the
City of Mexico
Also Lieutenant Colonel John 1. Rog-
ers. Second artillery. to be colonel, and
other minor promotions in the army.
Henry L. Wilson of Washington Is a
brother of Senator Wilson of Washing
ton. He has been identified with the
Republican party of Washington for
some time. His appointment is per-
sonal to his brother. although he was
indorsed for the position by Republics
ans in the state. He is a resident OF
Spokane. Mr.. Wilson was quite prom
inently mentioned for minister to ia
pan.
Mr.. Leishman is a resident of Pitts
burg and is ex-president of the Carne-
gle Steel company. He has never held
any public Office before His appoint
ment was urged by Senator Quay.
