SILVER is THE ISSUE.

The New York World expected fifty
.wo Democrats to vote for the currency
oil when it passed the house. in order
to eliminate the silver issue. 1t was
disappointed and the issue has not been
eliminated.
On the contrary, says the Mail and
Express, the issue was clearly defined
by the vote, since "the Republicans sup
ported it to a man, while with eleven
unaccountable exceptions. the Demo-
Gratis voted solidly against it," 1t says
further: 1.-The result is precisely what
the Republican leaders have expected
from the outset, and it stands as fear
less and explicit expression of party
purpose and policy"
The Mail and Express regards the
vote as extremely important. 'becaSse
it shows that the Democracy, as a
party, is opposed to the cause of sound
money just as violently today as it
was in 1896"
Republicans frequently confound the
terms sound money and gold stand
ard" Notwithstanding the fact that
panics' are frequent and particularly
disastrous under the single gold stand
ard.
But here is something from the same
paper in which weakened silver men
who are looking for excuses to return
to the goldbug organization should find
infinite satisfaction:
The pending bill Is in exact accord with
the pledges of the st. Louis platform; 1t
is designed to give needfdl stability and
force to the monetary standard and to
place the national finances upon a basis
of absolute security. Against these pur-
poses the Democrats in congress fought
and voted Yesterday as desperately as
they did under Mr.. Bryan'S aggressive
leadership at Chicago in 1886. 1t was the
same Old fight over again. on the same
old lines. with the Republicans solidly ar
rayed for honest money and the Demo
Gratis arrayed against it. History has
rarely repeated itself with closer preci-
the same eXactneSS viii distinguish the
succeeding scenes of the action.
Republicans. have thrown down the
gantlet. They had the negative side
of the free coinage question three years
ago. The Democrats have the negative
side of the gold standard proposition
fer next year. 1t was a Democratic
challenge then; it is a Republican chal-
lenge now.
I'VE have carried out the pledges of
the st. Louis PLATFORM say the con-
gressmen who voted for the bill. I'VE
never wanted bimetallism by interna-
tional agreement or any other way. We
meant gold and we're going to have
gold. If you silver people don't like it
you would better lump it. II you get
tired of fighting the money power, why
join it. If you are for sale it will buy
you. It's going to run things with a
high hand. and the sooner you conclude
that it is useless to make another stand
for silver in this country until condi-
tions change, the better it will be for
you ..-

WISE MEN AT SEA.

Gold is still sailing towards Europe
There is scramble for the yellow metal
in every gold standard country. Great
Britain hasn't enough. for the transac-
ton of business. All that the Bank of
England can get hold of, and it is Of
fering special inducements to other
countries, is being boarded. Germany
is apprehepsive and locking UT her
yellow metal. There is gold quaran-
tine everywhere but in the United
States, and We are coming to that.
Some of the leading opponents of
gold recommendation in this country are
puzzling their readers over the stu
alton which bellies their predictions and
upsets their theories.
With an enormous trade balance in
our favor, there is no commercial rea-
son for the expectation of gold at this
time" says the New York World
A local goldbug organ attempts to
explain the matter in this way:
Some securities intrinsically all right in
themselves had by the action of the Boer
and the British governments become en-
Cangered, and men who held them we're
trying to save something from the wreck
This made trouble in London; then Lon
don, when in trouble. always unloads the
securities which she can realize most on,
and they are always American; hence the
trouble in New York.
But the World said that ..the sum
total of American securities held abroad
by persons willing to part with them
as investments is wholly insufficient to
Offset the mercantile balance, even
should every one of them be sold in our
markets.
There is much gesticulation and shak-
ing of heads among the wise men of
the gold camp these days

Galatin In House of Representatives.

Gallatin took his seat in congress in
December 1875, and thus began his ma
tional career. He became a follower
of Madison. the floor leader of the Re-
publican opposition. He was a keen
and competent critic of Hamilton's
financial policy. He believed in assert
ing and maintaining the power and pre-
rogative of the house. as the dominant
popular branch of the government, and
it was at his suggestion that the COM
mittee of ways and means was first
made a. separate committee in that
body.
That which most distinguishes Gala
tins career in the house was his rec
ord upon jays treaty. He was the
leader of the opposition to that treaty,
and in the course of the discussion he
charged Jay with having pusillani-
mously surrendered the honor and in
terests of his country. The fierce OPP
position with which the treaty was re-
ceived when its terms were made
known to the public is well known. This
opposition was ably represented in con-
gress There had yet to be established
the rule and precedent as to the par
ticipation of the house in the treaty
making power. The parliamentary
struggle began between the admins
tration and the popular branch of con-
gress on March .. 1876. when President
Washington proclaimed the treaty the
law of the land and communicated it
to the house in order that the neces-
sary appropriations might be made to
carry the treaty into effect. Edward
Livingston of New York offered a reso-
luton calling on the president for Jays
instructions and other papers relating
to the treaty. The first of the two great
debates in the house on tae British
treaty occurred on this resolution. The
discussion had little to do with the mer-
its and dement's of the treaty, but it
dealt with the question whetheS the;

America has much cause for gratitude
to great men Of foreign birth In our
public life during our century of ma

greater service to the republic or done
more to promote its honor and glory
than Albert Gallatin. His is a name

from 1889 to 1S29-almost continuously
in the public service. In this period Of
two score years shall notice especially
three aspects of his public career:
1. AS a commoner in the house of
representatives from 1895 to 1901.
2. AS finance minister to the presi-
dent from 1901 to 1913.
8. AS a diplomat, as a peace negoti-
ator at Client in 1914, and as an am
bassador to France and England from
1915 to 1897.
OF these three distinct periods of
Galatians life his. biographer. John
Austin Stevens, says:
by his political life Mr.. Gallatin ae-
quired an American reputation; by his
management of the finances of the
United States he placed himself among
the first of political economists of the
day. and by his mastery conduct of
the treaty of Client he showed himself
the equal of the best of European
statesmen on their own peculiar ground
of diplomacy
few words as to the life of our
statesman before his entrance upon the
arena. of national politics. Gallatin was
educated at the University of Geneva,
where he graduated in 1879. In 1880 he
emigrated to the United States. He
engaged in trade for a year in Maine,
and for two. years he taught the French
language in Harvard university. In
1884 he settled in western Pennsylvania.
Here he soon began to take an interest
in politics, and in 1887 and 1888, as an
anti-Federalist, he. opposed the adop-
ton of the constitution. In 1890 he was
elected to the Pennsylvania legislature.
and in 1898 he was elected, strange to
say, by a Federalist legislature, to the
United States senate. He served in the
senate two months. and then by strict
party vote he was declared to be in
eligible and was deprived of his seat
on the ground that at the time of his
election he had been a citizen of the
United States only eight years. having
taken the oath of allegiance in 1855. In
1894 he used his tact and ability and
his great influence with the people of
western Pennsylvania to allay the
whisky insurrection. He was in SYM
pathy with his Scotch-Irish constitu-
ents as remonstrants and protestants
against the excise and the interference
of government, but he would not lead
them nor follow them as insurrection-
