MIR. BRYAN,s MEXICAN EXPERIENCE

A telegram from the City of Mexico says
that Mr.. Bryan called at the Bank of Lon
don for the purpose of selling some of the
silver dollars which he had purchased with
those of the United States. The fall in the
price of silver is said to have alarmed him,
as, since the time of his purchase of Mexi-
can silver and the date he visited the
Bank of London, the depreciation of the
Mexican dollar when turned into the world S
money was per cent. This sort of thing
should convince Mr.. Bryan of the ruin
which a change to a silver basis by the
United States would bring upon all it's peo-
pie, and particularly upon those working for
wages and in trade, since the prices of all
staples will be made in gold. the money of
the world. Putting the United States on a
silver basis would cause the price of silver
to rise for a time. but the stock is so great
that eventually the value of the silver dol
lar would be less than the gold. and would
1uctuate as did the greenback during the
period that it was the real money basis of
the United States.
Mr. Bryan took his five hundred United
States dollars and was given over thou
sand Mexican dollars. A week later his
Mexican dollars would not purchase so
many United States dollars as he gave for
them. His loss, however, would be small
but the loss of the hundreds of thousands
of depositors in savings banks and investors
in life insurance policies, aggregating eight
or ten billions of money, should the country
go to a silver basis, is frightful to contem-
plate. These many thousands deposited
and invested 1OO-cent dollars. If Organism
should succeed. they would be paid in go or
75-cent dollars-dollars worth the silver bull
lion in them, and no more. Mr.. Bryan's
Mexican experience should teach him this
plain truth, unless it is his determined pur-
pose to rob the hundreds of thousands of
frugal savers of small amounts of money
to enrich few thousand silver mine own
ers the world over.

Standish is one of the best known of the

English by birth. but had lived in Holland
and joined the Mayfiower expedition there

which would indicate that he YVES cognizant

munion. but was a dissenter from the dis
senters Although not a member of the
church, he was made captain of the Ply
mouth settlement on account of his fighting
qualities and executive ability. Though he
was a man Of stern and upright character,
there is no evidence that he ever posed as a
religionist. 1t is not known that any his
torian or biographer of Captain Standish
has stated that he was a Catholic,
and it is probable that his de-
scendant speaks from family records
or traditions. He would hardly make
the assertion unless he had convinc-
ing, or, at least, very strong reason for be-
leving it true. If true. it is probable that
Standsh was either born in the Catholic
Church or became Catholic in the Neither
lands, and that when he joined the May
flower expedition he put his religion in the
background. The other pilgrims came to
the new world to escape religious persecu-
ton, but Standish probably came for fight
ing, fun and adventure and he had enough
of all. To have avowed himself a Catholic
would have invited ostracism by the other
pilgrim fathers, who, having run away
from religious persecution, turned religious
prosecutors themselves. If Captain Stand
ish was Catholic, the truth of history re-
quires that the fact should be established.
His descendant should produce the proofs.

ley's attitude and sympathies are well
known. He Is the regular American repre-
sentative of the London Times and derives
all his income from that source. For years
he has been persstently UNFOLDING the
English side Of questions connected with
our own government, and is recognized as
a more rabid Tory than is generally met
In England. To invite such man to speak
at an American dinner, and then wonder
that he proclaims his English sentiments,
is. in opinion, the. height of stupidity.
We may question Mr.. Smalleys taste I'M
der existing conditions. but we are not in
the least astonished at his attitude, and
we are disposed to jeer the promoters of
the dinner for allowing themselves TO be
put in this awkward hole. AS for Mr.. Small
ley, he comes out of the affair with the
commentator of his employers. and with,
possibly, the assurance of nice Christmas
present and he does not care the proverbial
tinker's dam what the New England So
ciety or the American press says about
him, if only they will say enough to adj
vertise him. We congratulate Mr.A Smalley
on his unexpected opportunity.
