This last conjecture is not so wild as it APP

penchant for special pleading could make out
pretty good case for variable gravity. For ex-

THE FAMILY OF EMPIRE
(Gulph, Can, Evening Mercury.

(Gulph, Can, Evening Mercury
The meeting of the premiers of the overseas
dominions is destined to be one of worldwide
significance The statement of the British pre-
mier that mo longer does Downing Street rule
the empire but that the empire is in charge of
Downing Street." shows the changing views with
regard to world affairs. 1t has been the common
belief that Downing Street, the home of the pre-
mier Of the Mother of Parlaments, pulled the
strings that guided the destinies of all the over
seas dominions The premier is the first to
dis-illusionize the world that such is not the
case.
The welfare of the empire is the chief CON
Germ of the several British dominions Insthe con
sderation OF that welfare the whole family is
taken into consultation. The views of the least
of them are as much desired as those Of the
greatest and as necessary to the harmonious
working of the scheme of government. NoW that
the dominions have played so great part in
the world war, they anxious to have voice
in the future OF Empire affairs. In this they are
right but it is not to be assumed that there will
be any disposition to shrk the duties or obiga-
tons owed by one member of the group to the
other.
The big question to come before the conference
is believed to be that of disarmament, the same
question as is before the whole world. and which
demands early solution if the race for military
dominance is to be ended before national bank
ruptcy ends it all. 1t is not the aim of Britain to
rule the world, but it may Be considered pardon
able if Britain declined to be ruled and controlled
by those whose chief ambition is to see it dis.
membered or destroyed, For this reason there
must be a community of interests, which COM
munity must be prepared to bend all their ener-
gies in the direction of mutual support. disarm-
ing if all others will do the same and keeping
only such force as will adequately police their
many possessions in the four quarters of the
globe.
new order is in the making. The nations of
the world have had almost a surfeit of war The
best and the nobest have been slaughtered in
millions. The nations of the world mourn for
their dead, and have determined that no more
shall such calamity overtake them if humanity
possible to avoid it. The glory of war is fading
the glory of peace is looming larger than ever.
1t is the desire of the British empire to lead in
usherng in the era OF universal peace by univ err
sal disarmament, and Canada wants to help.

SILVER COMES BACK

The announcement that the government IS be-
ginning the coinage of 279,000,000 silver dollars
supplies theme fer interesting meditation Silver
was virtually retired from circulation in the early
days of the war when Great Britain purchased our
stock to relieve the silver famine in India At that
time silver was ''token" money. A silver dollar
contained about SO cents worth of metal The
other fifty cents Of its value as money was forced
into II By the fat Of the government, Just as two
mills worth Of copper is called cent. or penny's
worth of nickel half dime.
But times have changed. The dollar of today
will Just about buy the amount of silver in a silver
dollar In ether words, siver's coinage value is
about equal to its bullion value. The fiat Of the
government is not needed to keep it aAoat 1t
crculates on parity with the federal reserve bills
ex proprio vigore.
But the only thing in America which an ounce
Of silver will buy more of today than it would
seven years ago is this same federal reserve cur
rency. 1t will pay no more rent, buy no more land
settle no more hotel bills Measured by every
standard except the paper currency standard, it is
Just about where it was when it crept out of cir
culaiion. And, whereas the old silver dollar re-
ceived an increase of hundred per cent in its
value by coinage, the new one gets hardly enough
enhancement to pay for smelling.
However, the incident is couraging. 1t sug-
gest, the possibility, however remote at present
that the other unfortunate victim of the war, gold
may some day take its place again as medium Of
exchange. When it does, we shall recognize old

THE NEXT ISSUE

The League Of Nations will net be an issue
in the next campaign The country Is fed Up
on that question. and no matter what the .politi-
ticans and newspapers say. they are not gong
to get excited over it sufficiently to let II deter
mine their choice for president IN 1924. This
beng fact. which ought to be self evident, poll
hcians who want to get into the next scrap should
begin to look for signs CT The times from which
they can forecast the real issues.
The next election Will turn on something con-
nected with President Hardings administration.
If he should happen to make good al every point.
his re-elsction will be assured. Bu' if he. or his
aids. are caught in any betrayal ct public interest.
it will wreck his prospects.
There, then. is the place Cor the opposition TO
keep its optics glued The big manufacturing and
banking interests invested heavily in Tie presidency
last fall It stands to reason they will expect
their dividends, and these dividends can be paid
only at the expense CT the general public. That
is the way the Republican party has always man.
aged to get and hold control. 1t has favored the
big interests 1t has blandly permitted them TO
help themselves to wealth. all the while assuring the
gulIble public that the amassing of huge fortunes
enabled those favorite interests to do much for
the people Most of the big fortunes of the coun
try can be traced to special privileges.
Doubtless many of those interests will be con-
ent to take their pay IN protective tariff. As the
Telegram has pointed cut frequently, the tariff
raises an issue on which Democracy has won its
most notable victories. and on which it win
again if it keeps its hands clean.
Besides this, however, there is the great sub
iect of taxation to be scrutinized. Shall The com
mon people bear the whole burden, as proposed in
the sales tax CT shall the richer interests come in
for their share. AK lodging is rapidly becoming
the most profitable employment for the man of
large means New tax laws will have to be
framed and the facilities they offer for letting the
big fish escape will constitute something to talk
about There are many similar subjects which call
for close attention Indeed, the real scramble Of
the day is one for special advantages on one side,
and equal Justice on the ether Without pre-
Judging the Harding administration, il may be
said, in the light Of much past experience, that
equal justice to all the people. rich and poor,
will not be It's motto, and the extent to which
the opposition party takes advantage Of Repub-
Iican defechon from this standard will be a long
way toward determining the complexion of the
next administration. 1t Is time 10 watch, as
