The Meaning Is the Same.

Mr.. Carter was against the amend

vote on any of the pending resolutions
would be vote of lack of confidence in
the American people He declared that
che adoption of the amendments would
be a pledge to those who were defying
the authority of this country in the
Philippines.
There was nothing amiss in all that
Senator Carter said along these lines,
but the words that attracted the atten-
ton of the newspaper reporters were
those that escaped the senator when
he declared that when the treaty has
been ratified this government will in
quire in those islands who We're in re-
bellion against our authority, and, If
necessary to maintain our authority,

The result is that some of the editors
in the country have taken Senator Car
ter pretty severely to task. In instances
he has furnished a cartoon theme, the
picture representing the senator apply

Nothing Comes of 1t.

~ ILVER'S friends have had reason
~ to note the doings of the house
~ committee at Washington that
has lately prepared a report involving
financial legislation. The majority re-
port covers the points that had been
predicted-the making of lone dollar
as good as any other dollar by bring
ing the countfy's currency to the gold
basis; the retirement of the greenbacks;
the enlargement of the functions and
privileges of national banks.
Along with this report goes minority
report from the house committee. 1t
asserts that the plan contemplated by
the majority is the utter destruction of
silver in the currency of the United
States, including the silver dollars now
IN circulation; a serious contraction of
the currency of the country; a sweep
ing change that means the fastening of
the gold standard on the United States

The Money in It.

Edgar Saltus, commenting on the fact
that the late Mr.. Halsey, better known as
"Old Sleuth," made 100000 by his sensa-
tonal stories, says:
But there are some who have done
and there are some who are doing better
yet. Mr.. Moody. for instance. Already
one book of his has brought him in over
twice that amount Then there is Mr..
Kipling. He began modestly To-day he
accepts 25 cents per word in England and
50 cents here. We don't blame him. On
the contrary. The point is, though, where
at that rate is Old Sleuth?' Where, too,
Is Mr.. Moody? Mrs. Humphrey Ward Is

four novels this lady has cleared $500, 600
Should she be spared to us she may beat
Scott, who made 100000. At present
she is only $4,000 behind Anthony Troll
lope. 100000 behind Bulwer and 5000, 900 be-

Miss Corelli, that delicious bareback,

are wholly deserved. There is but one lit

his name is escapes us. We forget. too,
the titles of his works. They are of the

If now the attorney for the state is

A well-meant amendment, providing
that the law, if passed, should not ap-

would have made the quay cases sub

a vigor which betrayed the true i'm

Law for Quay.

Fr N important feature Of the Quay
~ senatorial campaign is referred
~ to in one of yesterday morn
tng's press dispatches which says that
the first sign of dissension in the DEM
ocratic ranks came as a result of the
McCarrell bill to prevent district attor-
neys from setting aside jurors. The bill
passed the senate. by the votes of the
Quay members and two democrats
The dispatch needs to be explained.
The McCarrell bill was introduced the
first day of the present session at Har-
risburg. In brief it does away with the
old-time right of the district attorney
/. to "stand aside" jurors in cases of mis-
demeanor and felony which are tried in
what are known as the quarter session
courts in Pennsylvania. The bill re-
moves the only protection the COM
monwealth has to secure unprecedented
Jurors and is direct step in aid of the
Jury fixers'' and of corruption in the
courts.
Already, the state really has all the
disadvantage in the trial of criminal
causes. The prosecuting attorney can
hot appeal. The accused can appeal for

he Chicago News,

ioh the ShlcdSo news.
The saddest and at the same time most
Illuminating result Of. the late war is the
state of absolute restitution that many of
the returned volunteers find themselves
compelled to face at their me-coming,
Some one has said that the next day,
after man has died there is no place for
him on earth, his position having been
taken by another, and this seems to be
true of the soldier, who, after three or
four months service in defense of the flag
and the honor of the nation, comes back
to resume the pursuits that sense of
duty or love for adventure compelled him
to abandon. He finds his place filled and
no new one is opened for him. How many
of these volunteers there are in Chicago
it is impossible to tell. but the rooms of
the army and navy bureau convey the i'm
preston that there are hundreds of them
who are begging. for the opportunity to
earn bread for themselves and those de-
pendent upon them.
1T is hard to accept as true the stories
many of them tell-a place given up to go
to the field, a return home only to find
the situation occupied by another, and a
dreary and fruitless hunt for new en-
ployment: it is equally difficult to believe
that an employer would turn adrift a
competent servant simply because he has
done his duty to his country, but such
seems to be the case in hundreds of in
stances.
Possibly Chicago is not alone in this re-
spect, but it should be looking after these
poor fellows and providing them with the
means of earning their living. They are
neither beggars nor tramps but men who
have demonstrated their right to en-
ployment and recognition of their man

all forms of money, separation of the
note issues from the fiscal branch of the
treasury department, the retirement of
the greenbacks and the establishment
of branch national banks.
The minority report submitted in the
house says: This bill fixes absolutely
and unquallfiedly the single gold stand
ard upon the country. All of the stand
ard silver dollars are swept from their
present position as standard money and
into the category of credit money and
made a charge upon the government
for their redemption in gold. The pro-
vision repeating the law which pro-
hibits national banking associations
from withdrawing from circulation
more than $3,000,O0O in any one month
gives the banks a power that will in
evitably lead to a sudden contraction
of the currency and to business prostra-
ton. This will give the banks the power
to contract the currency at their will and
to coerce legislation under the threat
of panics and business depression, to be
brought about by such contraction. The
whole scheme of the bill contemplates
the destruction of silver as money, the
destruction of greenbacks and treasury
notes as money and denies to congress
the right to issue paper money except by
farming out to corporations this great
sovereign power"
Whatever the purpose of this proposed
| legislation, it will come to nothing.
From the outset, it has been perfectly
well understood that safe majority in
the house is made up of democrats to-
gether with republicans who are not
willing to destroy the greenback and
who insist that there shall be. at pres
ent, no radical legislation hostile to sill
yer. These republicans are, by convic-
ton, in favor of the continued use of
the greenback; by policy they advocate
the theory that it isn't well to stir up
the silver question just now.
1t transpires that the plan of the COM
mittee on coinage and of it's sound
money" hackers has come summarily to
naught. Night before last the house
republicans held caucus. The attend
ance was large. The caucus decision
was that lit would be futile to intro
duce financial legislation at this late
period in the session.
