THE LAW AND THE PRACTICE

Representative Cousins of Iowa has
taken the initial step in the currency
reform movement He has introduced a
bill in congress declaring the gold
standard to be, the unit of value in the
United States.
Under the circumstances it seems to
be timely measure. Here we have a
gold standard with a law on the federal
statute books a hundred years old max
ing the silver dollar the unit
A law which is neither enforced nor
respected by those in authority, is a
dead letter. And still, in order to ap-
pear consistent, the Cousins bill should
be allowed to pass. The law and the
practice should coincide.
The incentive to action upon this bill
is identical with the motive behind the
extra session expected in the interest
of currency reform AS the matter
stands the gold standard is maintained
at sufferance. A free coinage president
could put the country on bimetallic
basis without the aid or consent of con-
gress. Every indication of impatience
on the part of the goldbugs is an adj
mission Of alarm at the prospect Of a
silver victory in two years.

AFLOuRISHING TRUST.

The steel trust is flourishing. So are
l55 other trusts. The law says they
shall not be allowed to exist. But what
does the law amount to? Trusts not
only exist, but flourish.
It is officially stated that the steel
trust has closed contracts enough dur
ing the past week to run it year, in
spite of the law.
Judge E. H. Gary. president Of the
federal steel trust. says that 100000
tons of standard steel rails have been
sold, on orders, to different companies
and countries. He has just given out
the following:
Fully 100000 tons represent orders
booked by the Federal Steel company,
through the Illinois Steel company.
The Carnegie company has about the
same amount of orders. The Illinois
Steel company's orders include $4,000
tons ordered by the Chicago & North
western railroad, $4,000 tons by the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad.
and O,00O tons by the Illinois Central.
We have received other orders, among
them an export order for 500 tons of
rails to go to Honolulu, to be used in
the construction of an Hawaiian rail-
road with eighteen miles of track. The
shipment to Honolulu will probably be

DR.. j. F. MILLsPAuGH.

The Salt Lake City schools will suf-
fer loss which, if not wholly irrep-
arabic, they will not soon recover
from, when DR.. J. f. Millspaugh finally
sewers his connection with them.
For fifteen years he has been identi-
fed with educational work in Utah.
Eight years ago he took charge of the
city schools. To his labors, to his
learning, his appreciation of the needs
and circumstances of the schools, his
executive ability, his earnest endeavors,
his. painstaking and his energy the
present excellence of Salt Lake schools
is largely due.
DR.. Millspaugh is progressive yet
conservative. His interest has been
centered in his work. His ambition
has been for the cause rather than for
himself. His aim has been to achieve
results rather than Distinction; but
both nave followed his efforts. The
school system of Salt Lake City is a
monument to his worth May it be a
lasting one. And the offer he has re-
ceived to take charge of a state normal
institution in a state like Wisconsin,
attest the estimation in which he is
held throughout the country.
The Herald congratulates DR.. Mills
paugh upon his appointment to such a
high position, and commends him to
the people Of Wisconsin as a worthy
citizen and a true friend of the public
schools.

THE PRoDIGAL's RETURN
Denver Post.l


Jest got letter here from Joe, our boy,
that said he'd got
Disguised Twin on the farm, an guessed
he'd take a trot
Into the busy, rushin' world, an try to
make a name
That in the comm years d be close
coupled up with fame.
He'd got a irresistible desire to gather
wealth.
An said that if he helt his grip on his
surprisin' health
He'd some day take US all to town to
wear store-boughten clothes,
An with the upper-tenners pack an ele-
waited nose.
We tried to turn him from his course
with calm, advisin' words,
But might as well have chartered to the
little dickie birds.
Fur Joe was Sot in all his ways, an
when he'd fixed pint
A stroke O. lightnin' couldn't knock his
'rangements out of tint.
An so we told him he could go, but
warned him of the SnareS
The city allus lays to ketch the stranger
unaWareS.
But he jest laughed our fears away. an
said with bitin' scorn,
The sharper that could do him had neg
lected to be born.
1 drawed a hundred dollars from the pile
I had in bank,
An told him fur to shove it down secure
~ in his flank,
An then he kissed his ma good-by, an
give my hand a grip,
Both of us fightin' an attack of tremblin'
of the lip.
At night down on our Bonded knees we'd
speak word fur Joe,
An axed the Lord to stay with him wfler-
ever he might go.
But not a message did we git from him
that went away,
SO full O. golden dreams, till this here
letter come today.
He writes fur me to meet him at the
deppo down at Rome,
An bring along the OIL brown coat he
used to wear at home.
An have his mother patch the pants he
left a-hangin' here
That's sort O. busted at the knees an
shattered in the rear.
He also wants the striped vest he give
his brother Pete,
An / must fetch a par o. shoes-he's in
his naked feet
An take along some underclothes an
socks. an SIGH as that,
Likewise his oil blue wooden shirt; he
says he's got a hat.

ONLY A QUESTION OF TIME.

President Mckinley will not be able
to deceive many bimetallists with the
international rainbow he has suffered
Comptroller Dawes to paint for them.
Chairman Hanna of the executive
committee of the Sound Money conven-
ton made a statement to the New York
chamber of commerce the other day
(which reveals the real sentiment of the
president and which is more in line
with the undertone of his message
wherein it refers to the present none
tary standard.
Mr.. Hanna said: 1.-THE president told
me day before yesterday, when I asked
him what 1 could say to the people
when 1 went back to begin my work:
You can say that I stand thoroughly
for monetary legislation, and that am
determined that every pledge the Re
publican party ever made along this
line shall be kept
Mr.. Hanna, referring to his talk with
the president concerning currency re-
form legislation, said further: Il do
not know that every man here ap-
proves the steps that are taken, but I
beg of you all to urge the insertion in
the written law of what so many say
now is the unwritten law. If the gold
standard is the unwritten law, it will
shock no man and no constituency to
write it in the law
This is coming out from behind the
bush about which Republican politi-
clans, including the president, have
been beating for so long time. Mr.
Hanna is for throwing off the mask of
even the remotest friendship for free
coinage, and he evidently thinks, from
his conference with the president, that
that dignitary is with him. Says Mr.
Hanna:
IF the majority of those who claim
that we are for sound money now are
satisfied simply to maintain the gold
standard that we now have, why not
write 1t in the law, and let all the rest
of us who are content say tAmen'?''
Mr. Hanna is in favor of a special
session of congress in March, to be
ing a currency reform measure. But
there are other equally earnest advo-
Gates of the single gold standard who
are not thoroughly convinced that an
extra session would be good politics.
They say that the present standard is
secure for two years anyhow, that the
country is on a gold basis now, and
that, when congress meets in regular
session, one year hence, it will be time
enough to strike a final blow to the
little silver now in circulation.
1t is not question of remorse or
mercy. 1t is a cold-blooded matter Of
getting good and ready to perpetrate
another crime like that of 1873.

REED HAS SPOKEN.

Speaker Reed is not in sympathy with
the contest movement inaugurated by
Utah Republicans against Congress
man-elect Roberts.
That settles il. The contest is over,
so far as congress is concerned. The
preachers may continue their work
which the politicians got under such
splendid Roadway, but they viii have
to go il alone or enlist the reformers
who can find nothing else in New York
or Washington to engage them at pres
ent.
Republican congressman may as we'll
get into line and right dress towards
the speaker. They have never failed
yet, so perfect is the discipline of the
cars imperial guard, and it isn't like
" that there will be any chewing or
eSpectorating in the ranks when the
order is given to fall in.
Speaker Reed has probably thought
the matter over carefully, concluding
that, as the Republicans of Utah made
their bed so shall they lie. An unneees-
sary conclusion since that is what they
are expected to do whether they go to
bed or stay up all night.
Washington newspaper correspond
ent informs d local contemporary that
there are many men in congress and
moulders Of public opinion in the east
who declare that no polygamist should
be seated upon the floor of either
house"
Any man, bachelor or bigamist, sim
gular or plural, who enters congress
and persists in sitting upon the floor,
ought to be elected. Chairs are pro-
vided for the members. Proper deco
rum should be insisted upon by the ser
geant-at-arms.
