TARDY REPLY
Sent to HicISs-Reach by the Bime-
taIlie League.

LONDON, Oct. 2S-The bimetallc league
has tardiIy presented to Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, the chancellor OF the exchequer, de-
tailed reply signed "Aldenhan, to the pro-
test by the commercial interests against BIZ
metallism. The reply says the league has
often pointed out that the changes taking
place in the British standard are due to the
action of foreign nations without the con-
sent Of the British government. Those who
now come forward with prayer that the
value Of our standard may be maintained "
continues the reply, have allowed the action
of foreign nations and OF India, by which the
value of our standard has been continually
increased to pass without protest; and it
would therefore appear that the signatories
to the memorial do not object to any in
crease in the value of our standard.
I'VE are unable to understand the state
ment that this country alone of the great
nations enjoys system absolutely free from
embarrassment, because many nations are
entirely free fom embarrassments caused by
their coinage and also (unless in speaking of
our country we ignore our empire) because
no power is so little free from embarrass-
ment on account of its standard, or rather It's
standards, as is the British empire. If alter
nations in the value of our standards are un-
desirable it will appear to be advisable to ar
range with other nations that they shall not
make continual changes"
The reply further says that the only pos
sible settlements of the difficulties in India
are the adoption of q gold standard or a
return to the free coinage OF the rupeee, the
former for India would be an untrted
political and social experiment entailing in
definite depreciation of the silver boards of
the natives and might lead to grave imperial
danger. Moreover, il would increase the de-
mand for gold and enhance its value. The
increased demand would be indefinite, owing
to the habits of the natives Of India of hoard
ing the precious metals. Although gold
standard would secure a par exchange be-
tween India and England. it would still
leave them as far as ever from par with
the great silver standard portion of the
world, including parts of the British empire.
The bimetallists recognizing the danger of
sudden changes in the monetary system, as a
result OF independent foreign action, argue
that these would best be prevented by Eng
lands participation in any international
agreement and with contributions of SUI
fcient Importance, due weight should attach
to her recommendations.

REGULAR REPORTS.

The fourth biennial report of the
superintendents of the worlds W. &c.
t o. department Of peace and arb1tra-
tion was presented by Mrs. Hannah j.
Bailey, of Winthrop, Maine. 1t was
in part as follows:
The most disappointing of all our ex-
pericnces during the last biennial SsSm
was the failure of the United States congress
to ratify the Anglo-American treaty OF peace
at is last session. The present administra-
ton of the United States government Is Ion-
templating an effort to get the matter again
before the upper house of congress. II The
war spirit Of the books which children reao
and study in their schools should be changed
so as not to give honored prominence to the
warrior, in comparison with the useful c1ti-
zen, the dawning of the day of peace would
surely soon appear There are lncreasihg s II
evidences of the growing strength OF the
peace movement everywhere in Europe IAe
Danish parliament recently refused credit
for strengthening fortihcations, considering
such an outlay useless. The budget commit
tee of the German reichStag refused to grant
a portion of the sum asked for by the navy
department for new ironclads. The Austrian
parlan.ent adopted resolution favorfng IN

the face of the earth. and came home in all
it's horrid details to everybody's door; it is
ton is only question of time.
Mrs Wilbur Crafts, of Washington,
D. c., reported on Sunday school work,
the purpose of this department being
to urge Sunday schools to observe the
quarterly temperance Sunday and to
reinforce temperance instruction by
emphasizing the moral and spiritual
necessity for a temperate life. She'said
that in the United States, Canada.
Australia, Palestine, the Northwest
province of India, Spain, Chilli, Mex
leo, Holland and the Hawaiian islands.
Sunday school departments are or
ganized and aggressive work is being
done.
The general assemblies, councils and
conferences of some of the largest de-
nominations in the United States have
taken favorable action in this matter.
Mrs. Irvine has succeeded through her
department in placing 1904 temperance
books in Sunday school libraries and
getting an increased pledged member =
ship of 24,784 teachers and scholars.
In the Dominion of Canada the
teaching of the quarterly temperance
lesson is almost universal. In Aus
tralia the quarterly temperance les
sons are almost invariably used. -

that since it was the law that husband was

that the new woman was obligated to sup
