For more than three months congress
has been devising ways for protecting
American productions generally, but
nothing has yet been suggested to pro-
tect our silver production. Last year
our silver mines yielded SIG, 900 000
which is no inconsderable item, ana
last month silver to the amount of
nearly million dollars was imported
into this country. Those who have a
horror of silver ought to do something
to keep out foreign silver. A duty of
fifty cents per ounce would be effective.
Protectionists ought to think of this.
Such a duty would perhaps cause the
price of silver to advance till silver
coins would not be regarded as cheap
money, and to coin it would not be de-
grading.

Linen and Cotton Duck

When duck is used for gowns, linen
duck is generally preferred, as being
cooler and not shrinking so much; the
cotton duck. on the other hand, is very
much cheaper, and wears quite as we'll;
both are used, and make most usefu,
and smart costumes. Severe tailor
styles should always be followed for
these gowns, for the material is too
thick to be much trimmed or elaborately
made up.-Harpers Bazaar.

These are some Of the propositions
that are. likely to be discussed before the
treaty shall be confirmed. and the senate
has acted wisely in its practical cub
mission of the whole question to the
forum Of public opinion. 1t Is probably
safe to predict that before the senate
reconvenes after the expiration Of the
present session the question of expedi-
ency will be settled, in effect, 50 that the
action Of the senate will be mere for

The Blooming Thing

The San Pedro Times announces, with
due gravity, that large century plant
out at Point Firman is beginning to

1t is intimated that General Woodford
may be persona non grata to the Spanish
government because many years ago
he made a speech in favor of Cuban in
dependence. If sentiment in favor of
Cuban liberty is to be made cause for
rejection of an American minister, il
may give the president some trouble to
find man acceptable to Spain. Per-
haps Hale of Maine may be induced
to resign his seat in the senate and ac-
cept the mission. There are precedents
for such action. Hale is sufficiently
pro- -Hespanian to suit the sensitive
Spanish court, and he might be able to
serve the Spanish cause better in Mad
rid than in Washington. If pressed tc
it Grover Cleveland might be sent over
there, where he certainly would be re-
ceived with favor, and besides he is at
present a statesman without job.

But Greece Is In Danger OF Not Ratifyins
At All

Constantinople, Sept. 21.-The prelim-
mary treaty Of peace between Turkey
and Greece, which was signed on Satur-
day, by the representatives of the sui
tan and of the powers, has been ratified
by the sultan.
Athens, Sept. 21.-The political situa-
ton arising out Of the conditions Of the
peace convention is serious. NJ. Delyan-
mis-, formerly premier and leader of the
dominant party, numerically, IN the
Boule, had asserted that if the propos-
ed scheme of foreign control should
prove to IMPLY an inference with the
sovereign rights of the state, he would
not hesitate TO advise the chamber to
reject the treaty.
The tone of the press continues indig-
nant. The Asia and the Aropolis de-
clare it "the most iniquitous document
Of modern times"
Many are preparing to demonstrate
against the treaty.
London. Sept. 21-The correspondent OF
the Daily News: al Athens says:F
The public feeling over the peace terms
has changed from stupefaction to active
Indignation. Here and in the provinces
mass meetings are being arranged to pro-
test, and there is reason TO believe that
the chambers viii refuse to aclcept the
treaty.
NJ. Delyannis even declares the question
so grave that only the national assembly
is competent to swear away the sovereign
rights of the state. Theaking is also said
TO be very bitter over the terms.
The people object, not 10 foreign con-
troll. but TO control by bankers and bond
holders committees, whose terms must be
accepted ere Thessaly will be evacuated.

er and continued on her voyage. II is
not thought that much damage was done.
Point Arena. Cal, Sept. H.-As no
boat came ashore very little can be
learned about the accident 10 the Mon
terey. II is thought that part OF her
machinery broke down and that she
drifted with the tide and struck on the
rocks. In three-QuarterS OF an hour the
necessary repairs 10 work the machin-
cry were completed. and the steamer
backed off with some difficulty from her
perilous position. The weather was
hazy. When off the rocks the Monterey
headed down the coast and did not ap-
pear to be badly disabled.

States defense monitor Monterey arriv-
ed Lere this morning and is now anchor
ed in the stream off Folsom street
wharf. While the naval authorities de-
cline to either deny or confirm the re-
port that she went ashore at Point
Arena yesterday, they state that she an
chored off that point in order 10 avoid
the danger Of proceeding in an unusual
ly heavy fog. They admit that she might
have touched bottom, but say they
know nothing OF the matter and that il
she is damaged al all the extent Of her
injury cannot De ascertained until she
goes up 10 Mare Island.
