Bryar's New Endless Chain.

Mr.. Bryan has suddenly acquir-
ed an earnest solicitude for the
preservation of the gold standard.
The House committee on coinage.
probably in spirit Of humor. ask
ed him for his views on the meas
nre now before the House to
make silver dollars redeemable in
gold at the option of the holder,
and he responds that ''to convert
a standard money into Il credit
money is to narrow the foundation
of our financial system, and at the
same time enlarge the superstruc-
ture. Such II course weakens the
s, stem and hotl, hasiens catastrophe
and intensities it when it comes"
AS Mr. Bryan views the situa
tion, this would endanger the gold
standard, he seems to have devel-
oped sudden etfection for the vel
low metal. If this bill passes, he
SAYS, the tinancier>. whoever they
may be, vii! have absolute control

"They are a part Of the public
deb. of The state, and amount to
$493, S3o," says Governor Dnckerv
in Il recent message to the LcglSla-
tnre in which lie recommended leg
islative action on the state school
fund certificates Of Indebtedness.
This is what the Republicans have
always asserted and the Democrats
have until lately just as often de
MED, that the certificates were
part Of the state debt. The inter
est charge upon this debt now
amounts to $3.50. 900 annually and
the Governor recommends Il change
in the constitution which will make
this interest charge Il permanent
one npon the taxpayers. The prin
ciple of what was once an actual
fund, 81, 393, $50, has been di~sipat-
edand will probably never be restor-
edit the plan now contemplated by
the Democrats, to make the school
fund Il perpetual state debt, is sac
ccssfu!. The position of the Re
pubIicans in this matter is not that
the people object to he taxed Il
quarter Of million dollars annual
ly for the support OF the schools.
but that the actual cash of what
was once an actual fund drawing
interest from outside sources. and
under the constitution should have
been held as trust fund by the
