THE INDEPENDENT NATION.

The British Government, rs was predicted
some time ago in special dispatches from Lon
don to The Tribune. has decided that 1t will in
no way modify It's policy In order 10 promote
the larger use of silver. either by opening the
minis Of India or by adding to the holdings by
the Bank of England. This places the United
States In the position OF having discharged It's
duty toward other nations, and absolved itself
from the consequences which may follow. How
soon those consequences may transfer Into n
controlling majority that powerful force In
favor Of international accord, which has been
strong enough gravely TO disturb The inner co,in-
sells of the British Cabinet and OF the banks d.
rectors Is the business OF Great Britain. In due
time more will be known than seems at present
10 be apprehpnded as to the power Of the United
States TO command the monetary situation.
To thennthinking, this monetary decision In
Great Britain and the notice just sent TO United
States consus throughout the world regarding
invoices of sugar may seem unrelated events.
The notice REQUIRES consuls to certify, as to re-
fined sugar shipped to this country, from what
country the raw material for refining was
drawn. With that information the customs Off
Gals here will know what discriminating duty
must be imposed to counterbalance any bounty
raw or the refined sugar was produced. With
this provision OF the new tariff faithfully en-
forced. as It will be by an Administration which
understands the Importance OF developing new
industries in the United States, 1t may be ex-
pected that the production Of beet sugar will
speedily become Of the greatest Importance.
But some will ask, what has 1t to do with Brit
lsh monomctalllc plans;
1t is now twenty-one years since the United
States has paid less than s7O,000,00O in any one
year for imported sugar. During the last ten
fiscal years the imports have been in value

that this country can within very short time

THE COURTS AND THE FRANCHISE.

The Republican machine Is getting cold com

successfully rejected and its smart plans upset

Gaynor rendered last week and Justice Pryor
confirmed on Monday. uphodng the Citizens
Unions certificate OF nomination against the
contention that it was invalidated by technical
defects The Court listened with patience to
the arguments Of Qulgg's attorneys, but its
opinion of their purpose and quality was signlf-
cantly indicated by Justice Cullen's remark that
the free expression OF the will Of three million
people should not be hampered by such technical
rules as would apply to a proceeding in relation
to debtors property. II Is said that the case
will be carried at once TO the Court OF Ap-
peals and II Is not unnatural that the men who
have done their best TO make their cause con
temptible should desire to postpone as long as
possible the moment Of their final discontinue
And yet just now the judicial atmosphere Of
