A VANISHING DREAM. The Best Money Was Increasing Claims aa Man' Eyes Open. Uiulavlllo CoiiriiT-Jourtial.) Ibe rrocrcM of Japan toward tbe adoption ol the gold standard gave uu other shoek to the silver mnrket last week. Tbe bill which provides for the uiintau'e ol 5 and 10-yen irold coins has Daseeil ihu lower houae of parlianieut, aud it ia practically only a tjuotdion of a ahoil tinio until tho J.ami ol tlie liitiog Suu shall have u currency epstem ou a par, or nearly so, w ith the enlightenud nations of the world. The example ol Austria. KuKsiu and Chile ia re-enforced In a very powerful quarter. Like them, Japan recognises tho impossibility of re storing silver to its old value; it suc cumbs to tbe inevitable, and is 6vaimg its conduct iu conformity with the ex- Icouciea of the tiuioa. It ib an instructive circumstance, but one hich the silverites have ignored, that no backward step lias ever been taken iu the nrouiesi of the ttold stand ard. ltiinctallic countries have invari ably made efforts to check the deprecia tiou of silver bv legislation, and as in variably they have failed and have had to seek the securer basis. The most de termined eincriuieiits of tins sort were undertaken by tbe l.atin L'nion and the United states. The Uitui t uiou entered upon tbe task with what seemed almost a certainty ol success, for opto that time France, one of the greatest commercial nationa of the world, had managed lo keep open its mints to both mctalH, though the wisdom of legislators and financiers hail been taxeu to tne ui most lo regulate tho constantly shifting relative values, rracucauy tne wnoie western hemisphere was coining silver on the eniial terms with Bold for which populists are now contending. All.tliat legislation could do was done, but no statutes that man could frame were able to control the higher law of supply aud demand, aud the Latin Union at last fell of ill own weight. The United States, with enormous resources and with popu lar prejudice in lavor of silver, made a gigantic struggle, with the disastrous ro suits tuidor which the country ia now lalioriue. in is ih tbu nlaiu lesson ol uitiiory. in recognition ot it, not only Japan aud Kussiit ami Chile, but even a icprai American state and Ibe United Stales ot Onlumbiu and Han Donuiiuo. have eith r adopted tho gold standard or else are ti vim to do bo. Mexico remains a con spicuous exception to the rule, though Mexico U making great progress, mm il.n viowe of tbe sironueBt uieu of that country are said now to favor a change In until.

TARIFP AND RECIPROCITY, The New Hill, as Compared to the McKlnley Law of 1890. l'lilla'1olhia I'r'aa.J The new larilf bill Is tbe niont distinct rid complete eiuboiliment ol the policy or reclprotity which Una country has ever umlertskeu, ita provisions sra more coiuprehensive and flexible than I tboaeof the McKlnley law of In'M). Jl,e nractical exncrlntice obtained under Die operallcns of that act has pointed the ay to a wider, more uireci anu more skillful application of the reciprocal rinclple. Its acceptance Is neither ptr- functory nor obatract. Mr. Dingley and his associates are earnest believers in eclnrortiy. and they have studiously aboied to preterit it In tho most con crete aud effective loroi. ineir pron- lem has been to open the way fr con cession which would give new markets nd new trade without impairing the revenue needed for the requirements ol the government. This has Men accompimiieu 111 two ava. Tbe first lslho telecion of ap propriate articles of import Uion which the duty tan lie reduced lu return lor special advantages lor our products in ,lio lotintries ot export, aoiodk wie eading articles tbns selected are sugar, ii.ee, champagties, Hiss arm lacea. Thl.i is a broader enumeration than was contained iu ths McKlnley law. In that ait sugar was placed on I he Iree list and it grtaily reduced tne capability 01 makiiii intiorc-cal arranitemenls. hince sugar has been returned lo tbe duliablo nit 11 opens a large neiu tor nexotiatiou. Uermany with its beet sugar is a com- petitoi for our market as wen as r-pain ud Cuta, and tne competition in suar gives a leverage lor bom. ine ex;en- sionifthe list to wines, cuampsgnep, ilks and laces provides a fpecul and powerful weapon lor negotiations with ranee and oilier J.uropean countries, so that ttie priciple ol reciprocity can be xtcndeil to h.urope as wen as to toe American contiuent. Lint this bill introduces a su'uiid method which waa not tried 111 the Mc Klnley law. I5eidee permuting a re liction o! rates on dutiable arlicleti it utbori.es in certain caee I tic tranHc-r of articles fiom the freo list t) the duti- ble list. For rnorelhan "0 years we have admitted tea, eoffe and hides free oldutv. They still remain on t ha Iree st. We do not produce them. Ihev do not come in competition (except idea in a small dcuree) witb home products, and it ia in harmony with the principle of protection not to make them subject to duty, liut this bill enables the president to nee inee arucies as ea pens to coir.man.i. rouceiBioua iroru the countries from winch we import them. If we 01 en our uiaikct to their ree introduction we have 0 right to ak heir producers to open the market lor our products upon advaiitageouo tcima. It tlie president ioc-ib inat tneir mmvuiB provisions are unfair to thia country or do not vield concession which we can ecure he is autborixed to atop tneir ree entry and lo levy a duly ol 3 cents a ontind 011 coffee. 10 cenie a pound cu lea and P. cents a pound on llldeS. These provisions arm tne president with very large and effective powers lor commercial negotiations w uu tue ie:u- ui! nations of both continents. In tlie landH of mu admimatratiou inenuiy to the policy and intent upon seeking cp- noitunities for the extension ol Amen can trade, they open ;t broad held lor dinlomatic f kill and lor commercial en- lernriae. Tbe oolicv does not llieau free trade. It dee not endanger ade quate revenue. Tbe bounds and limits are so fixed as to leave sure pafeguards ; but with these provisions tbe president can bring the nationa to terms. e provide the best market in tne worm. iermanv and t ranee ore struggling- ior ts rrivileaes, and at the same time have liscriminuted against some ol onr products. 1'ndex ibis law they can pe brnunht to lair nluv. Accompanied by wise measures lor belter nieaus ci com munication, it will give us new power in the (South American trade. W e are ltocother tbe best cuntomers ot Central and South America, out at present tney buy chiefly in F.urope. A skillful sp- ilicatlon ol tins iaw anu oi me orouu nolicv of a merchant marine which should follow it will bring them as pur hacera to our door. W ith l's enai t nient wa sha II have a lair trial 01 reel nrocitv. and. aa tbe limited act of 1SW has brought increased trade, eo this will bring it in larger measure. Japan Buying Oold.

As reported back by the sna'o coin mil tee ou foreign relations the arhitra- on treaty is a mam rigmarole ol ercpty words, and Its adoption will bring upon ns Ibe ridicule ani contempt of inllli- out peopln at home and abroad. The indon Times expresses civilization's sentiment In this way : "1 ho United Htates enat has done hat optimists affected to Ijelieve Impos sible, and what the cooler ohsoryeri Uionglit extremely probable. It ba) de. atroyed tb arbitration treaty; it has struck a blow at the principle of arbi tration itaelf, and at the confidence of be world In tho American people. Its action striken a note of levity, wanton- nen and Irresponsible caprico such as is, happily, rarely struck by any Icgis- ative assembly. Kvery word of that is deserved. I he treaty has simply been emasculated by tho grandmothers' gathered at Wash- ngton. The "amendment" provide for he siihmiaeion of all agreements for ar it ration between the two countries to ie seriate as a part of the trea'y maklntr power of this country for its approval or irnpproval, eliminates the supreme court as a permanent tribunal ot arbi tration and strikes out th provision agreeing upon tbe king of (Sweden as mptre. The Brat of these virtually Hol lies the whole intended arrangements fry reducing the arbitration tribunal to a nonentity and making the senate the real court In which shall be decided any question which may be submitted to ar bitration. The unfitness of that body to assume such a mighty responsibility ia shown by its disgraceful treatment of tbe treaty itself. To rebuke the administra- ion that framed the instrument without akinz tbern into counsel, these states men save Ibe mark have deliberately )caten down the mighty confederations of international well-being which htve lirred tbe hearts of tho people of two continents. A body tbu could show self so insensible of public opinion and contemptuous of the public welfare merely to gratify a leeling ot partisan, or tieis jnal prejudice is not to be seriously thought of as a board of final appeal in ny question aflecting our foreign reia- ions. If the treaty is adopted as it bus been repor'pd the llntish government will robably paas it over with silent con- empt. Hut the American people must ear the burden of universal execration earned by the Morgans su 1 the Millsee. And that is the worst ol it. Ielcgratn. BINGER HERMANN. Good Word for a Fellow Townsman.
