In your issue "B,M from Salem, In iidulglng his consttutional right to U9SU the- courV- when Ifc decides ajainst him, rinds fault because they do not.declde a constitutional ques tlon whenever the same Is suggested. The rule in this respect In the su preme court In the Eastern Oregon branch Insane asylum case, is the b .me which has been laid down and f dlowed by our court always, and Is an almost universal rule In Amcri cm courts; namely: "That a court will not pass upon a constitutional question and decide a statute Invalid unless a decision upon that very point becomes necessary to a deter nlnatson of the cause." This state ment of the rule islald down by Judge Cooley, In his "Constitutional Limita tion," page I0H. The present supreme court, in this, arc simply following the universal rule. If there arc other grounds upon which the case can dc decided, the constitutional question ,vlll not be passed upon. The fact that efforts have been made for two years to get a decision, shows that some one has evidently mhtakenhls remedy. "11" Is sadly mistaken when be says that tho construction of the constitu tion was not "questioned during tho more than a quarter oi ixihuij which followed." The records show the reverse. The state agricultural college, provided by tho legislature, was permanently located at Corvallis, October 21, 1870. Tho state univer sity was provided for by the state ,ind located at Eugcno by an act ap proved October 10, 1872. Both these acts were approved by Governor Grover, an able lawyer and one of the leading men In tho constitutional convention. There were many mem bers of these two legislatures who wore also members of the coiihtltu tlonal convention. Judge Deady, the president of tho constitutional con vention up to tho time of his death occupied the position as president of the board of regents of the state uni versity. Certainly these members of tho convention utterly failed to see that tho provision In question' ougln to 1k construed as "B" now construes It. The fact Is that every legislature which has convene- since 1970 has passed laws as Inimical to the pro vision in question as tho Eastern Oregon brunch asylum act, and their perfect constitutional light to do so was never questioned until tho sol-l dlcrs' home case arose. In this stato of the case, the decis ion of tho supremo court of the United States In Stuart vs. Laird, 1 Crouch, 20!, comes with peculiar force. Tho question at issue was as to tho consti tutional right of Justices of the supreme court to hold circuit courts. The court said: "To this objection, which Is of recent date, It is sufficient to observe that practice and acquies cence under it for a period of several years, commencing with the organiza tion of the Judicial system, ntTords an Irresistible answer, and has, Indeed, iued the construction of the most forcible nature. This practical exio sit Ion Is too st rong and obstinate to bo shaken or controlled. Of course, the question U at rest and ought not now to 1 disturbed." Tho supremo courts have not trilled with those questions, but are follow ing In the well-beaten paths or Juris prudence, and their actions are to bo commended by all right-thinking lawyers and cltlens. A Kood many of the Marlon county dclcKutloii will probably favor Tiinion torn for Herumnn'h place.

' TARIFF IAND FINANCE. .TARIFF ; Continued from first page. barren of the results claimed for It. It did not stay the outflow of gold, though we have Issued bonds to pur chase more than a quarter of billion of "sound money" Iff order to support thetadmlnlstratlon policy. This lias been.an expensive; experiment. More expensive than war. "We can approx imate the direct cost but wc can not estimate the cost resulting from slirinkage of value and loss to labor. I bcllevo the American people want the money function restored to the silver dollar, that It may bo again useful as money of final payment. The one contention made by tlio gold standard advocates against giving the silver tho place In our currency It formerly occupied, and the one argu ment urged und emphasized, Is that the restoration of the silver dollar would drive the gold out, and yet It Is true that since congress repealed the law directing tho purchase of sliver bullion, and by that act announced to the world that tho United States had Joined the gold-standard countries, more gold has departed from this country than ever before In the same period of time. The loss has been more man iwo-nunureu minimis. From this it would seem clear that it Is not silver that is driving out the gold, but that It has been going out wing to the other pauses. Metallic monej' at times and under certain conditions will be sought for exportation or will How out because of the foreign demand. "When this happens it always takes the coin for which there is the greater demand and that which Is most convenient for expor tation. At this time the coin wnnted is gold. The great advantage in having both gold and silver as money Is that when, for any reason, one coin goes out the other remains to do busi ness. IIMory shows that It rarely happens that both coins go out of the country at tho sumo time. The one most demanded Ih usually the scarcer and less bulky. It there is n differ ence in parity It Is true that the cheaper money will usually remain, but these conditions seldom continue for any considerable length of time. "When there Is a condition In the United lltates. which takesourgold to Europe, it goes whether we have silver or not and when conditions change. In our favor It will return whether wo hae a single or doublo standard. We are told In all of these discussions that the restoration of silver In the United States without the concur rence of other nations would he n mistake. I believe we could restoro It. but I would commenco with tho American product and supplement it by such legislation as would protect the gold reserve and would so legis late as to put more silver In circula tion. I am thoroughly In sympathy with thu Idea that we should demand and receive a portion of our duties which come through the custom houses In gold. If wo require this and Increase the tariff wc will hear no more nlxmt the dinger to tho gold reserve. It was said In substance by the gen tleman from Maine, Mr. Dlngly that whatever increase of sllvor we have r-hould be gradual. The more conser vative blnutalllsts might agree to this If some provision could lie enacted for commencing this gradual Increase. 1 for one would be satisfied In caso something substantial can be done; that Is, something which will relievo the situation. At some time talk will havo to cease and congress will legislate Upon thU question, until ... Wlien II docs 60, With tho experience ' of the past, It will doubtless legislate ; Intelligently.

It whether wo shall use the two motah nsbtandartl money, as we Ilepubllcans declared Incur platform In 1892, or liother we shall maintain tho single gold standard. It lias lcn contended here that the people will uotcare .to uso much more sllvflr than- we" now bare. Judgment tbiy. could and, yjould .take care of much more of this coin and keep it in actual circulation were it not for tho effort that Is boing mndc In certain sections to depreciate and degrade It. By retiring citibank cur rency of smairdenomlnation9-much more silver would be requlredi; and still more could bo used by the banks If they would hold silver as a part of thelrcoln reserves'. It Is believed by friends of silver, tliat the treasury departmenthas done much to discredit this metal, but 1 think under ordinary circumstances the treasurer should meet the obliga tions of thegovornmentby paylngout whichever metal is desired. But when there is evidence that tho gold Is being demanded for export or that a run is being made on the treasury for the purpose of precipitating a panic, as was done In 1893, then the treasurer should protect tho gold re serve by handing out silver. An honest dollar Is the dollar or the con tract. The obligations of the govern ment arc payable In coin, not gold. The holders might object to receiving silver, but its payment under such circumstances would stop a run in a few hours and would be sustained by the great body of American people. The people want fair dealing and without discriminations. If the money function of the silver dollar Is gone and It cin be used here after only as a subsidiary coin, then we might as well suspend its coinage and use altogether, but I am unwill ing to concede that this is to be so. There arc many bimetallism In the country, and this International strug gle for the gold is a great educator. The restoration of silver is neces sary for another reason, and that is in order to prevent the money syndi cates rrom controlling tho world's coin and to protect the government as well as the people against the grow ing and dangerous power of these great combinations. For the last two years every citizen of tho United States has been humiliated beyond ex pression because of the confessed In ability or the government to manage its own finances In its own way with out paying enormously for the support of these banking Institutions.
