The Aldrich Bill Bears Fruit

In the last issue of the Examiner we called the
attention of our readers to some of the features of
the Aldrich bill, approved March A. 1907, We at
the time indulged in little speculation regarding
the true motive of the republican party in enacting
the measure into law.
We have just received the treasurer's financial
statements for January and February, 1903, from
which we will extract few figures and see if our
surmises have not been confirmed:
Silver certificates in treasury, January l, 1908
So, 684, ,653. Silver dollars in treasury, $42 554
Total treasury holdings of silver dollars and GER
tifcates, January l, 1908, $3,727,2O7, Silver
dollars in treasury, March 2, 1908, $19.347, ,757,
Silver certificates in treasury, $10.85263l. Total
treasury silver holdings March g. 1908 $780, 200 $780,
The above statement shows that the treasury's
silver holdings in standard dollars and certificates
increased $26 473, 181 between January 1903, and
March 2, 1908, or at the rate of $13 236, $50 per
month. During the same period of time the silver
dollars and silver certificates in the circulation de-
creased $685. 313 49, and the free gold in the treas
ury decreased $16 9O3 and the free gold in the
treasury on March g. 19O8 being only ST. 99 548 all
the balance being held as reserve, and against
gold certificates outstanding which are nothing

more Or less than warehouse receipt for gold.
And yet the congress of the United States could
applaud when 1t was stated that the treasury held
over billion dollars in gold
The endless chain that President Cleveland
sashed in twain in the early '9Os has been welded
firmly together by the Aldrich bill and will go on
in its usual gait pumping gold out of the treasury,
and pumping bonds into Wall street. as long as the
republican party remains in control of the govern

The Washington correspondent of The Com
m0ner states that the present impression in con-
gress is that whatever may be the demand from the
White House for legislation congress will adjourn
about the middle of May. The leaders in both
houses say that it is necessary to adjourn in order
that members and senators may go back to their
states and attend to the political needs of their
parties. It is asserted now that the long session.
coming just before the presidential election, must
not be used for the enactment Of any legislation
other than appropriation bills and possibly such
measures as the employers liability bill and cur
rency legislation. Eight months ago, when the
short session was growing to a close, the plea was
that the session was too short for careful consid

before either new congressional election or a
presidential election. Therefore it is urged that
nothing must be done in long session, lest it

In power in the pending election. For nearly
twelve years the republican party has been play
ing the game of procrastination and promising al
ways that something would be done when the next
congress should meet. Nothing has been done
nothing will be done. The tariff has not been re-
vised, the railroad question has not been handled
firmly, the issues raised by President Roosevelt
however meritorious they may be, have not been
given attention. There has been much oratory
and little action; much wind but the ship of state
has not thereby been waited into any safe harbor
Now the republican leaders plan an early ad-
journment without having given attention to the
business brought before them. The one reason
for this early adjournment Is that they must go
home and attend to the election of delegates to
the national convention.
