FINANCIAL REFORM.
Danger of Stagnation 10 the Party in
Power.

Danger Of Stagnation 10 the Party in
Power.
Washington, Feb 7.-Horace White
of the New York Evening Post, in
letter TO the secretary of the monetary
commission, has this to say of the COM
missions report recommending plan
for a revision of the currency laws:
II heartily approve the report of the
monetary commission. While | might
prefer slight changes here and there,
the general principles advanced by the
report are. in my judgment, correct and
their enactment necessary 10 the pros
perity Of all classes. i consider the
report most timely in a political sense
. also. because the country cannot stand
still Either the right thing or the
wrong thing will be done. Stagnation
would be suicide for the party i'm power,
even IL stagnation were possible. but
it is impossible. From the close of the
war until the present time the currency
question has been the uppermost one
i'm politics. We have been moving one
way of the other all the time-never
standing still. To stop now would be
to rest in fools paradise. The enemy
VIII not allow III. L CoHSlutI the COlll~
missions plan for bank reform exceed
insy hopeful. and trust that the forth
coming indianapolis convention will
give IL a cordial endorsement"
Seth Low of Brooklyn also expressed
himself as in hearty sympathy with the
commissions purposes Speaking OF
the report he says: ''Its detailed rec
concentrations seem 10 me TO be wei
calculated to accomplish the desired
result. AS long as il is possible fol
anyone to ask with any reasonable doubt
as TO the answer: What is a dollar?
the business of the country will he
carried on under more or less disad-
vantage in proportion to the gravity
OF this doubt. II seems 10 me that the
battle as to the standard shall be un-
questionably gold or unquestionably
silver, precisely as Lincoln said that the
country must be either wholly free OF
wholly slave. In favor Of the gold
standard are these facts: First Of all.
that we are already upon it. and that
any attempt TO change il to the silver
standard would involve an industrial
and mercantile convulsion, the effects
of which no one can measure and sec
ondly. that the gold standard is the
standard of value in all the countries
enjoying the highest civilization"
