tbe tiat idea of money, is not dead or
even sleeping. Though there is more
tliau likely to be a breaking up of the
forces that were held together during the
list campaign by the adhesion oi the
hope of spoils, those who hold to the
idea that tho one great cause of the de
pressed condition of the times is the lack
of money, ate likely to get together.
The first point that they reek U make is
the fr9e coinage of silver. This, it is
contended, will add to the volume of the

Associate Justice Stephen J. Field, of
tbe United states supreme court, has
Jlnally decided to retire from the bench
iu July next. This, of course, revives
all the old storien relative to the recast'

that event, Ilisprc'.ty thoroughly uu
derstood, at the White House aud iu the
cabinet circle that when Justice Field
does retire, Judge McKenna, now at

the bench. It used to be said tbat Jus

propose to rive President Cleveland the

This reason is now removed aud the age

When army is arrayed against army, it
is customary for both sides to appeal to
the God of battles to vindicato with vic

standing the observation tbat ' od is
generally on the eido of the biggest bat
talions. The Greek invaders of Mace
donia have issued the following procla
mation . "Brothers and Soldiers of
Christ and Liberty : We hoist the flag
of liberty, tho '-reek tlag. Under its

'Liberty or Death.' The justice of our

The president on Monday announced
tbe following appointments of commis
sioners for the promotion of an interna
tional agreement for bimetallism : Sen
ator Edward O. Wolcott, Hon. Charles
J. Payne and ex-Vice President Adlai E.
Stevenson. While this proceeding on
the part of the president is correct aud
proper, being in accord with the plat
form upon which be was elected, it will
come to naught. This is a silver com
mission, as it should be, as the United
(States is supposed to represent the sil
ver side of the ijnestion, hut the world
is drifting away from biniettalisui as the
term is generally understood. All the
nations have had it at one time or an
other and it is being discarded in favor
of a policy that sustains the largest pos
sible circulation of silver money based
upon gold, w ithout disturbing tbe parity.
This experience proves tho best aud it
will be followed.
