SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. s.-The local Presbytery
decided to-day, after a lively discussion. to re.
fuse to take charge of the home missions In this
State for the Japanese and Chinese. and APP
pointed a committee to confer with tho New

ago the New York board refused to maintain,
any longer, home miss ons for the Chinese and
Japanese. The local PrCsbytery finds that the
expenses OF running the missions AFRO too heavy
a tax. They declare that unless aid Is given by
Asiatics will die.

The Teller resolutions went further than to
declare that the Government debt was payable
in the existing silver coins. 1t said that "to
restore to its coinage such silver coins is not In
violation of the public faith. &c The advocates
Of the gold standard opposed 1t because II pro-
posed payment in silver after silver had been
restored to free coinage. and tho silver dollar
thereby deprecated to less than half its present
value.

why the Republicans Voted Against the TelIel
Resolution.

To THE EDITOR OF THE sUS-Sfr: Tho great issue
Of the last Presidential campaign was whether We
were to establish the monetary system advocated by
the Democratic Convention or retain the existing
one upheld by the convention OF the Republican
party. A favorito argument OF the victorious party
was that in having the gold standard wo should
maintain the parity between gold and silver coin
not. Of course. In intrinsic value. but that our silver
money would be as generally sought after as the gold.
Tho %slverltes. as far az any ono knows, did not In.
tend to depreciate the actual value OF the silver coin
used as the dollar.
Now, why in the late discussion regarding the
Teller resolution were the advocates OF the goid
standard so strenuous in their efforts TO debar the
payment Of bonds, &C.. in the coin they claimed
would be on a parity with gold should the present
monetary system be In forcsp t.
