"COIN' DON'T MEAN GOLD.

Senator Teller has taken a
course calculated to put the rep
resentatives OF the people in con
gress on record.
He has introduced in the SEN
ate concurrent resolution declar-
ing that "the bonds Of the United
States, principal and interest,
should, at the option of the govern
ment, be paid in standard silver
dollars, and that such payment
would not be a violation of public
faith nor in derogation Of the rights
Of the public CREDITOR
In 1873 Stanley Matthews in
troduced a resolution, upon which
Senator Teller has based his; which
committed this country to the bi-
metallic policy, and that resolution
was passed by vote Of AZ to 22 in
the senate and 1So to 70 in the
house. AS an interesting matter
of historical record it may be we'll
to quote the Matthews resolution.
1t declared:
ssThat all the bonds of the
United States issued or authorized
to be issued under the said acts of
congress hereinbefore recited are
payable. principal and interest, at
the option of the government of the
United States, in standard silver
dollars of the coinage of the United
States, containing 4I21a grains
each Of standard silver; and that to
restore to its coinage such silver
coins as legal tender in payment
Of said bonds, principal and inter
est, is not a violation Of the public

FINE PHRASES.

AS maker of phrases William
Mckinley was success during the
presidential campaign.
But as a maker of prosperity
since his elevation to the presiden-
tial chair he has proved failure.
One of his greatest hits in
phrase making was the declaration
that it was "better to open the
mills than the mints. Apt illustra-
tons and artful aid helped to make
this saying popular, but, unfortu-
nately, the mills have not opened,
and the remark has sunk to the
level of a glitteing generality.
With co. 900 cotton operatives
threatening to strike in New Eng
land because of reduction of 10
per cent in their scanty wage, the
cotton mills seem more likely to
close than to open, and the dawn
of prosperity so brilliantly describ-
ed as necessary result of republi-
can supremacy appears to be in
definitely postponed
Now it is announced that 50, 900
skilled workmen in New England
shoe factories are to have their
wages reduced. Prot ct O n
through the workings of the Ding
ley tariff has failed to protect and
the result is disaster to factory
owners and operatives alike.
With 100000 workingmen re-
duced to starvation wages, at least
700, 900 men, women and children
will be made to feel the pinch of
poverty and hardship. Their ina
bility to purchase anything but the
bare necessities of life will have
most depressing effect on the gen
eral business in New England.
1t is an old proverb that cline
words butter no parsnips," and
there can be no stronger proof of
this than the fate of William Nc
klnley's famous utterance that "it
is better to open the mills than
the mints.''

THE UNION believes that the
plan for the prompt collection of
taxes as given by Otto Anderson
in the "Open Court" department
of this paper last week is in ac-
cordance with law and entirely
practical. That it would be a big
improvement over the present
mode of tax collection there can
be no doubt. Next week THE
UNION proposes to discuss the
proposition at length.

Republican editors are in the
ecstacies of delight over the fact
that the government revenues for
December exceed the expenditures
by million dollars, and in their
hilarity they lay it all to the Dingley
tariff. Let's see, Uncle Sam S
cash box was replenished during
December by the sale of the Union
Pacific railroad-a little item of
S58,ooo,ooo. Even with the addi-
ton of this sum the government
receipts for the month named onlv
exceeded the expenditures by a
million dollars. Unfortunately
tor republican editors, the govern
ment hasn't any more Union Pa

faith nor in derogation of the rights
of the public creditor"
With this resolution as a re-
minder of the contract made by the
government with its creditors, the
claim that the word "coin" is
ambiguous falls to the ground.
The counter claim that the .shonor"
of tn, nation requires that this
contract shall be repudiated is also
proved to be fallaclous.
Senator Teller's resolution would
seem almost unnecessary were
it not for the fact that the gold
clique is making such a fierce fight
to establish the pos ition that "coin"
means gold and that the people
shall be robbed of $500, 900, 900
for the sole benefit of the creditor
class.
In view of this fact it is prehaps
we'll to put the matter to the test
and to put the lawmakers of the
nation once more on record.

CLEARING THE SITE.


Work Is progressing on the new quar-
ters for the poor department on Eddy
street, or 1t is more proper TO say that
the old buildings on the land are being
removed in order to make room for the
new brick buildings, which are to be
plain and substantial. one section to
be two stories high. while the other will
be one story above the street level.
A part OF the wooden building now
abutting on the street will be torn
down. while the one-story brick build
ing further south will be improved and
added to. The new brick portion TO be
built is to be about AZ by So feet. and
will be used for storage of the provi-
sions. which are TO be purchased and
distributed I'm lieu of giving out orders
and for other purposes. The general
offices OF the overseer will be on the
other side, and the main wooden build
ing will have new roof and be fitted
for wood sheds in which tramps will be
given employment.
The work will not be allowed to lag.
as there Is a desire 10 have the tramp
quarters In full working order before
the extreme cold weather strikes in.
and the new system Of taking care OF
the tramps will be watched with "A
great deal OF interest.

NEW PLAY HOUSE.
Old Normal School Builiing 10 Be Trans
formed Into a Theatre.

Talk OF a new theatre is an old story
in Providence, but finally there is to be
new theatre, and ii will be in full
operation this winter and will cater
largely to the patrons of the popular
drama and melodrama. The new
amusement resort will be in the old
Normal school building. 755 West
minister street, and it will be conducted
by Mr.. Charles Allen, who is the owner
of the property.
The building Is three stories high, has
frontage of SO feet and a depth OF
about 100 feet, and II Is figured that
there will be seating capacity for at
least HOO persons. Mr.. Allen has not
yet completed all his plans for the sea-
son, but he has decided that 1t shall be
a family resort. He will do nothing at
all in the direction of vaudeville or
burlesque, but rather give a selection
of plays such as were presented at
Lothrop's opera house, now the Olym-
pic.
Mr.. Allen will probably keep his the
atre open afternoon and evening, at
popular prices, and there Is reason to
believe that he should meet with fair
measure of success.

TAKEN TO CRANSTON.
Schooley Taken From Kingston Jail
to State Prison.
Sheriff Cundall Says Transfer Was
Made For Safe Keeping.

Sheriff Cundall of Washington coun-
ty personally transferred III. G. Schoo-
ley, the man with an unenviable repu-
tation, who is accused of having caused
the death of Maria A. Flynn at Watch
Hill. from the Kingston jail to cell at
the state prison, at Cranston, for the
purpose as Mr.. Cundall expressed IT,
OF ''safekeeping."
There is a prevailing opinion that
there was some fear on the part of the
sheriff that an attempt might be made
by certain residents of South county
to do violence to the prisoner. AS II
was not known that Schooley was ia
be taken to Cranston, there was no
crowd at the station at $50 yesterday
afternoon, when the party boarded the
train for Providence. Schooley ap-
peared to be quite cool and self-pos-
sessed, and had every appearance OF
not realizing the serious charge that is
hanging over him
On his arrival in Providence he was
at once transferred to train for How

Wall. who will look after him until ne
appears for trial upon the charge which

NOT SETTLED YET.
Another Meeting to Be Held to Settle
Pawtuckets fractional Fight.

The political muddle in Pawtucket
over the question of what is and what
is not the regular Democratic city COM
mittee still remains unsettled, for the
executive committee of the Democratic
central committee did not arrive at any
conclusion yesterday. Pawtucket polit-
ical squabbles never are satisfactorily
settled, and this one seems bound to
follow the usual course.
There was quite a sentiment In the
executive committee yesterday in favor
OF sending the matter back to the peo-
pie. This was considered the falrest
thing that could be done, and the DEM
ocratic voters could then say whom
they wanted on their city committee.
There was some opposition TO this,
however. and the committee finally de-
cided to hold the matter under advise
ment until Tuesday next at IL o'clock,
when a decision will be rendered.
