POST CHECK CURRENCY.


THE HERALD has been requested to
call attention again to the fact that
another EFFORT IS to be made at the
coming regular session Of congress TO
pass the measure known as the post
check currency bill On many former
occasions we have unreservedly en-
dorsed the bin and the idea which It
embodies. At various times the meas
lure has been explained. but in response
Ito the request from the gentlemen who
are most active in promoting its pass
age SC may not be amiss to so into
details again
The post check currency bill is al
most explained by its name. Tt pro-
poses the issuance Of one, two and
hve-dolar bills in such form as viii
enable their possessors TO transform
them into checks payable only to the
person in whose favor they are drawn.
thus rendering their transmission
through the mail absolutely safe. The
bin is designed I'm the interest Of those
living some distance away from a
money order postohice, and makes
every one of them his own p0stoffice
FOR such purposes.
IN order 60 make money order or
n post check out Of one Of the bills it
rs only necessary to write in the
space provided. the name Of the payee,
20 sign on another line the name Of
the drawer and to afx an ordinary
z-cent postage stamp. This having
been done, the check may be sent
through the mails as safely as any
bank check. The convenience Of the
method. both TO the sender and the
receiver, is apparent
The latter has only to go to the near
est bank to cash his check When the
bank has acquired what it considers a
sufficient number of them it sends the
lot to the treasury department at
Washington or to the nearest sub
treasury Tor redemption. In exchange
ft receives a bundle of new post check
notes. OF course Unindorsed notes are.
TO be used in ordinary commercial
transactions just as the currency. some
OF us have now. is used
~ Another advantage of the post check
noes is that thereby continuous sup
ply Of clean notes Of small denoniina-
tions VIII always be in circulation.
This viii be specially appreciated in
the west, for the reason that one and
two-dollar bills are novelties out here
and hve-dollar notes are not seen near
~ as often as gold pieces Of the same
denomination.
The Herald hopes the post check bill
viii pass at the approaching session.
10 was far advanced toward passage a
year ago. but I'm the press of business
at the end Of the short session ft was
crowded Off the calendar. IT is en-
urely probable that better fate is in
store for the measure within the next
few months.

N. wYsE's LETTER.

IT is DIFFICULT to view the letter
1 of NJ. Bonaparte wyse. the French
engineer to whom was granted by the
Colombian government the original con-
-cession for Panama canal. with any
thing but hilarity grave though the
subject Of his letter is. NJ Wyse, writ
Ing TO the Paris Eclair. says 1.-THE impu-
dent attitude of the Washington gov
eminent should have the effect OF rous-
Ing France ana bringing about com
mon action by the European govern
ments against the American perils, ana
also OF proving TO the most incredulous
the immenEe Importance Of piercing the
isthmus."
We are perfectly willing 10 grant thar
the action Of the United States I'm the
Panama matter is the most high
handed proceeding Of which this ma
ton has ever been guilty, but we fail
to see how any countries other
than Colombia. the republic OF Pan
ANA and the United States are con
cerned- except favorably. There rs
nothing impudent about the attitude OF
the United States as far as France is
concerned. The French grafters, with
the possible exception Of N. Wyse, are
in a fair way TO divide between them
selves a goodly chunk Of American
money. Perhaps Wyse sees impudence
ln the transaction because he has been
left out of the distribution.
Later in his letter NJ. wyse justiaes
this belief, for ne says: IF France
should finally renounce her rights the
United states might play the leading
part on condition that it indemnify tho
Interested parties" one Of whom, Of
course is III. Wyse. Continuing. the
F-enchman suggests a reference Of this
question to The Hague arbitration trib-
unal. The objection to this IS that tt
would delay the completion Of the canal
Tor an indefinite period, which is just
what we do not want Tt would be far
better to reopen negotiations with CO.
lombia, negotiations which would prob
ably have ii successful termination in
the iight 90 recent history.
~ Wyse's suggestion that a squadron
Of European warships be sent to escort
colombian troops to the isthmus is NOT
likely to be taken seriously. Opinion
in the United States is widely divided
just now on the Panama business. Per-
hdps majority Of the people wish our
impetuous president had not been so
hasty in his recognition Of the new re-
public. But what would follow the ac-
ton outlined by III. Wyse? The very
first result would Doe a Capitalization Of
sentiment in favor Of the administa-
tions action. Every man and woraan
of us u a Europeans squadron threat
encd to interfere with one Of our
avowed policies, would be Tor our coun-

SHAW sses a LIGHT.

A GREAT LIGHT seems to have
"A dawned on the Honorable Leslie
Shaw, secretary Of the treasury. Only
few weeks ago in Boston, Secretary
shaw delivered an address which was
devoted almost exclusively TO the ship
subsidy question. He argued elabor-
ately, and to some persons convincing
~, that ship subsidies are a crying
need in this country. Our shipping is
going to the demniton bow vows, said
the secretary. in effect, and it win go
further than that unless congress inn
mediately comes to the rescue.
Now. that was very interesting. but
It was so much along the line Of the
views always held by Secretary Shaw
that no special comment was occa-
stoned. Last week. however. before the
New York chamber of commerce, Mr..
shaw talked again. we don't know
who saw him in the meanwhile. We
don't even know that ne was seen at
ah Maybe he had only been reading
up little more thoroughly on his sub
ject- At any rate, Mr.. Shaw once more
discussed ship subsidies. This time he
roared YOU cas- mildly as any sucking
dove"
Though stiH favoring ship subsidies
IS "A general proposition, Mr.. Shaw IN.
his New York speech did not consider
them as Of paramount Importance to
the resurrection and growth of our
shipping industry. Indeed, he rather
hack pedaled on the notion that sub
sides are absolutely. necessary. Every
other method. he contended, should be
exhausted before the government is.
called upon to swell the treasures OF
che builders Of ships. we agree with
Mr.. Shaw's last sentiments almost en-
tirely. Every other method should be
tried-and then subsidies should not be
tried
A more direct swindIe has never been
attempted by political manipulator5.
But the thing has been shown up so
often and so thoroughly that it is
doubtful If even a Republican congress
win have the hardihoOd to attempt to
press it through at the coming regular
session. Secretary Shaw's change Of
heart may be taken as an indication of
the temper Of the administration, of
which he has on several occasions been
considered the mouthpiece.
on the eve of a national election this
hoary steal viii be filed carefully away
for resuscitatiou and reference after
November Of next year has come and
gone.
