dent this afternoon. At the request CT the
president he will leave for Omaha and st.
Louis tomorrow with Paymaster General
Smith to represent the administra ton at

In those cities.
To the pointed question as to whether he

General Wheeler said:
"I have been importuned to answer that
question good deal of late, and as yet l

to explain my resignation. / hope still to

Attorney General Disqualified
1t was stated at the department of JUS

no power to examine into the conduct of
Clerk Dimmick, of the court at Montgom-

United States statute relating to the
clerks is one which gives to the president
the right to remove a clerk of a court If
it can be shown that he has been derelict
in the performance of his duties. Charges
against Clerk Dimmick or against any
other clerk would pass over the head of
the encouragement on their way from the

Falling Prices.

Falling prices rob debtors and unjustly
enrich through increasing the purchasing
power of money units.
The war against silver was inaugurated
by a combination of the worlds creditors
for the purpose of cutting off the money
supply and making money scarce and
dear. Through outlawing silver, money
metal, they have doubled their wealth
and their incomes since 1873, as every
dollar due them of either principal or
interest will now purchase double the

citation of silver emanated from a class
who sought the enrichment ofthemselves
through the plundering of general society
by increasing the value of money. Until
men cease to be solicitous for their own

things of worldly concern, the money

Silver Dollars in Circulation.

The silver dollars in circulation repre-
sent less than per cent of the currency
i'll use, SO per cent of the silver dollars
coined cannot be forced into circulation,
and yet Bryan and his followers howl for
more silver conn., Cecil Whig.
An editor ought to know better than to
publish such a statement as the above,
and if he knows better he should renenl-
Der that honesty is the best policy. There
are between three hundred and four
hundred million silver dollars doing active
duty as money. There are about sixty or
seventy million dollars that are made of
silver in circulation, and silver certificates
circulate in place of the metal they rep
resent to the amount above stated. There
is no effort making to force the metal
in the treasury to redeem their represen-
tative paper certificates when called for
OF course the silver dollars and their
paper certificates cannot both be forced
into circulation. The silver bullion that
was bought by the government under the
Bland Allison law in existence from 1873
to 1890, was paid for by issuing certifi-
Gates. Two million dollars per month
was coined which coin was held i'll the
treasury to redeem the certificates when
presented. There is scarcely any other
money in circulation save those silver
certificates.
In 1890 the Sherman act was passed
which was substitute for the Bland
Allison law. The Sherman law required
the Treasurer or Comptroller to purchase
a, 500, 900 ounces of silver bullion and pay
for the metal in legal tenders, and to coin
some of the bullion-two million dollars
month-for about one year after the
passage of the law, and then stop coming.
There were, or was the last time we Wis
tied the Custom House i'll Baltimore,
about 40 tons of silver dollars piled up
in one end Of the sub treasury apartment
i'll canvas bags. The place looked like a
big corn crib filled with sacks of grain.
These tons of silver dollars were all in
circulation by paper certificate, and of
course the metal dollars were not in cir
culation too, nor could the Treasurer
make any further effort to force them
into circulation" because their proxies
were circulating. The next subscription
that is paid in for the Whig, a hundred
chances to one, will be one of these silver
dollar certificates. Where is the honesty
i'll publishing that 80 per cent of the
silver dollars coined cannot be forced into
circulation" when all and more than is
coined is in circulation by certificates?

More Complaints.

Port Deposit sends up the fol-
lowing wall by a staff correspondent
of the Cecil News:
drunkenness and coarse talk on
our streets are on the increase. 1t
is utterly unsafe for anyone to be
out alone at night on our streets.
Last week crowd of negroes were
coming up the street drunk, one of
whom waved a razor in a white
lady's face. We ought to have
two or three policemen in our town
nowadays"
The remedy is to cause the can
didates on one or both of the legis-
lative tickets to pledge themselves
to have the license feature of the
present local option law repealed,
to take effect April 80, 1900.
