Budget Call For Lowered
 Alaska Appropriations

The Interior Department SUD- ply bill was reported in the House January 25, by the Dem ocratic Appropriations con- mittee. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, the de- partment has $69,342,606. The budget estimate for the year ending June 30, 1883, was $56,705,352. But the commit ee has scaled this amount down to $50,431, ,432. Alaska has been treated as follows:
 Governors salary last year $7,000, increased by legal en- actment to $1O,0O0. Secretary of the Territory, salary $3,800. increased to S5,600; contin- gent expenses for Governors and Secretary's office $14,300, increased to S17,500; Legislat- i've expenses, as usual, $46,- 900; reindeer activities, $26,, 900 this year, increased to $34,300; care of insane from S152,0O0 increased to $156,- 900; suppression of liquor traffic among Indians, from $16,200 decreased to S12,O00; Alaska Railroad, from 1,000,- 900 to this year to S500,000, in addition to allotment re. ceived by the railroad during the next fiscal year. For the ed ucation of Alaska natives the committee recommends S690,- 900, which is S109,000 less than the current amount. For medical relief in Alaska there is recommen d d $281,800, which is $37,200 less than the current figure. For Mckinley National Park administration and maintenance the present sum of $195,00 has been in- creased by the committee to $225, 100. The usual provis- ion is made for Geological surveys and Land Office ex- penses. The Secretary of the Interior sought to have the committee consent to giving the Alaska Railroad authority by the inclusion of the follow ing words: "Operation and maintenance of agricultural experiment stations heretofore operated by the Department of Agriculture on the line of the railroad" but this was re- fused.

LATE DEVELOPMENTS
 IN SILVER SITUATION


 by Senator Burton K. Wheeler in support of his bill calling for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, a senate fi- nance subcommittee was ap- pointed to hold hearings on the measure, Washington press dispatches report. Chairman Smoot appointed a committee composed of Senator Keys, re- publican, chairman; Thomas republican, and Barkley, dem- ocrat. At last reports the sub- committee was scheduled to begin hearings with 70 repre- sentatives of the Farmers un- ion from nine middle western states appearing.
 Senator Wheeler declared in his speech that the gold dollar the so-called honest dollar of the monometallists of years gone by is today worth $1.50 and the debtor is called upon to pay an unearned increment of 50 cents upon every dollar he owes. His address occupies many pages in the Congress ional Record and was in many respects the most informative statement regarding silver and present day monetary condit- ions that has so far appeared, It is far too long to permit re- production in these columns but interested persons may read the copy on file in the Herald office.
 Pierre Du Pasquier, French financier representing t Il e French parliament, proposed a world conference to seek an agreement on bimetallism or some other solution of the sill yer problem at conference with Chairman Borah of the senate foreign relations com mittee and democratic senators from western and southern states. Du Pasquier said he be- lieved the French government would send representatives to an international silver confer ence called by President Hoov- CT.
 Rehabilitation of silver would help immeasurably in speeding return of prosperity, Sir Henri w. A. Deterding, British oil magnate, declared recently in a cablegram to Senator Pitt man. Nederding's cable, read in the senate by Pittman, quot ed the views of Sir Osborne A. Smith,, governor of the Imper- ial Bank of India, ,on the silver question as follows:
 Purchasing power can be stimulated by the rehabilizat- ion of silver through a reason able stabilization of its value in relation to gold. If this could be accomplished I feel sure the improvement would be immediate and lasting and it would not be long before surplus commodities were ab- sorbed and some measure of prosperity restored"
 That the question of whether the United States will not be ultimately forced to go off the gold standard is still and i'm portant one Outside, is dis closed in the following editor ial statement in the February issue of Worlds Work, very conservative monthly publicat- ion of the great publishing firm of Doubleday, Page & Go:
