anniversary of his birthday on Sunday.
He stands for right and for the people
and it is the earnest wish of all that he
may be spared for many years to come

YER" Apparently the Bank of England
agrees to held one-fifth of its reserve in
silver, which It is permitted TO do by
an act Of parliament Of 1874. In reality
it agrees to do so only under conditions
as difficult of realization as II il had said
"when the sun turns backward in Its
course" These conditions are that
the French mint shall "be again opened
to the free coinage Of silver. and that
the prices at which silver is procurable
and saable are satisfactory"
France could hardly open her minis
at any other ratio than her old one OF
l5K. 1t is practically certain that her
civilization is too far advanced for her
to attempt free coinage at ljR to 1
when the present ratio is about 40 to1.
When "the prices at which silver Is
procurable and salable are satisfac-
tory" may mean anything. As the
Bank Of England cannot use silver In re-
demption OF It's notes it can afford to
buy silver only when 1t can be ex-
changed for gold wlthor risk Of loss.
OF course, If France had free coinage at
a fixed ratio the Bank Of England could

ifest advantages arising from this re-

danger. Our currency system has been
tried and found deplorably wanting. Its
friends affirm that the currency troubles

Is true, but people who accept this as a
conclusive answer strangely overlook
the fact that such result Is the most
serious indictment Of the system.

any observer could discover at the time.
no especially baleful influence on the
country's prosperity. In the fall Of 1891
there were plenty or political oracles to
point out the fact that good times were
returning In the face Of the silver pur.
chase act Of 1900.

that the preparation for such a system
must be made before the emergency
arises.
IF we are to pass In the future
through other years Of commercial dis
tress-and nobody Is so great an opti-
mist as to argue that trade reactions
are gone forever-we surely ought, DIS
an intelligent people, to provide that
in such an event our whole system OF
public and private finance, government
and individual credit, need not be swept
down simultaneously. The time to place
our own currency on sound and stable
footing is the immediate future, while
our industries are still feeling the i'm
