Push the Cause Of a Sound Currency.

VictiOn that the Nauonal Rouse OF
REPRESENTATIVES should not adjourn
until it has passed some practical
measure of currency reform, designed
to maintain the money of the country
upon a sound basis, and give to the
value and an adequate banking and
monetary system. We do not know
why the advocates of the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver at the ratio OF
l6 to /, have been permitted for weeks
past to load the columns of the Con-
gressional Record With their shallow
fallacies, without any systematic at
tempt being made to answer them
The speeches thus delivered by these
representatives Of the great silver trust
viii subsequently be reprinted and
sent out all over the country as CAM
paign documents under congressional
franks, Is il a wise policy to permit Il
campaign like This to be carried nn
without any systematic and vigorous
attempt to counteract it, We certain
ly believe not.

Lancaster is the latest town to
take advantage of wheat planting
furor which prevails over South
Carolina. 1t is to have a roller mill
Of 80 barrels daily capacity. While
excellent graham flour may be
turned out by good corn mills, and
the farmers are thus assured of
facilities for supplying themselves
from their own wheat, it is clear
that the establishment of roller
mill in town capable of convert
ing a surplus crop into marketable
-four, must prove great stimulus
to wheat growing in its neighbor-
hood. Farmers all around Colun-
bia are planting wheat and this
city needs a mill. If COlumbis

draw wheat from several counties,

market for all the -four that it can
produce. What would = mill like
