talIatory course against Canada by the
disc0uraging results Of negotiations In
London In clearing the held for the reas-
sembling Of the Joint high commission.
The treasury department has now two
courses open. both being retaliatory. The
first - the preparation OF an amendment
to the tariff. largely increasing the duties
on lumber and forest products imported
from Canada
There is possibly another course. through
the section OF tho D1ngiey act authorizing
tho United States. In cases where coun-
tries impose an export duty. to add an
equivalent import duty on such goods COM
ing to the United States The Canadian
government is not imposing In 80 many

SATURDAY. DEC. 80, 1899.


The city council last evening cleaned
up, 90 far an possible, all outstanding
bills OF 1899, and left clean slate for the
beginning OF the next year and century.
BY doing this they will commence the
year undor the new charter in position
to fulfill the provisions Of that instru-
ment, which provides that each years
expenses must be estimated before the
beginning Of the year, and that the as
innate made shall not be exceeded.
The annual statemen; Of the eity's
financial affairs, upon which Recorder
Judah has been working for some time,
viii show a very gratifying improve
ment over that OF last year.
The city's income has been materially
increased aud the expenses, including
the interest account, have been cut down
70 the tune Of thousands OF dollars. But
for the very unfortunate lhcufsloh Oh
smallpox the showing would have been
close to two thousand dollars better
than Il Is.
However, there is this much consola.
tion on that point. Under, the old or
der, this burden would have been very
much m the nature Of last straw 10
break the back Of the overloaded camel
of city credit, and At best would have
put the city that much deeper In the
hole. A. ~ is, Il simply cuts down the
handsome surplus, and the city does not
take quite 80 long a stride ont Of debt A.
she otherwise would.

THAT FINANCIAL BILL

An exchange thus summarizes the
gold standard law now before congress
for passage;
This measure provides first that the
standard unit Of value shall be the dol.
lar consisting OF 25. grains Of gold, nine.
tenths fine, or % % grains Of pure gold.
1t then provides that all interest bear
ing obligations Of the United States
now existing or hereafter TO be entered
into, and all United States notes and
treasury notes issued under the law OF
July ID, 1890, shall be deemed and held
TO be payable in gold coin Of the United
States. Not satisfied with making gov
ernmeut obligations payable in nothing
but gold coin it provides that the pay
ment of all private obligations, no mat
ter what the contract, shall be in gold
by saying "and all other obligations,
pnblic aud private, for the payment Of
money, shall be performed in conform
ity with the standard established in
this act.".
Section Of the bill provides for the
operation Of the "endless chain" and
the forced issue Of interest bearing bonds
whenever money holders shall find II
more profitable to loan their money TO
the government than to invest 1t in
private enterprises. II says:
at shall be the duty Of the secretary
toilnaintain the gold reserve fund taken
up on the books Of the division Of issue
and redemption, as herein provided, and
for this purpose he may from time to
time transfer TO such fund any moneys
in the treasury not otherwise appropri-
ated or may exchange any Of the funds
in division Of issue and redemption for
other funds which may be in the gen
eral fund Of the treasury, and in adj
dition hereto Is hereby authorized to
issue and sell, whenever in his judgment
IL is necessary 10 the maintenance Of
said reserve fund, bonds OF the United
States bearing interest alta rate not ex-
ceeding per cent annum, payable IN
gold coin at the option Of the United
States after one year." Itthen goes. on to
say. "That all United States notes issued
under tho act of July IL, 1890, presented
for redemption shall be redeemed In
with the existing law"
That portion Of the bill referring TO
the issuance of credit currency places
II entirely in the hands OF national
banks, secured by interest bearing gov
bonds, and permits the sec
rotary Of the treasury TO redeem or ac-
cept such notes. The tax on bank cir
is reduced 10 one-tenth OF one
per cent.
