THE END OF FREE SILVER. There will be no more agitation for free sliver In this country. The finan cial bill which became a law with the president's approval yesterday settled that question permanently, to the In . tense relief of the democrats, no doubt, as well aa the republicans. For the sake of seeming consistency the next democratic platform will con tain a free coinage plank, but the democratic leaders will not press this issue In the canvass because they rtal lse that It is permanently settled, and settled by the sanction not only of th republican party, but with the entire assent of a large section of the demo , erotic voters as well. Free tilver coin age at the ration of 16 to 1 will not fig ure in the next campaign. ' This Is & clear gain to business sta bility, at least, for which this country Is to be congratulated, and the majority in congress is to be commended. While tht passage of a currency bill which recognises old as the monetary stand ard of the couutry and eliminates the endless chain syrUem of depleting the treasury gold reserve, is only the be lated fulfillment of a campaign promise made nearly four jears ago, It Is an exceptional instance of a campaign promise fulfilled. Many campaign prom isese are made to the car to be broken to the hope, and tha business interests of the country are to be congratulated that Che gold standard promise was not one of this sort. With the coinage question In effect eliminated from the coming presiden- tial contest, the public will be able to J take sides upon some new issues grow- I lug out of conditions which have arisen since the last presidential tlecMon anj j which will not be obscured dv an v serl- ous discussion of the currency question, j States, all pour with a steadily increas If not the wisest bill that could have i lng flood int0 the niarkeU of the East, I been framed upon the subject, it settles the question for years to come. If not for all time, it will be recognized as a final settlement by everybody and j with the cordial acquiescence of nearly everybody. Buinens men can plan for the future with the positive assurance that financial values cannot be disturb ed by unwise tinkering with the mone tary standard for years to come. What the "open door" to the trade of the East, of which we hear nowadays so much, amounts to, is fihown in gen eral and with great abundance of detail In Bulletin 18 of the national depart- l for Infants I Nature planned that infants I should have only milk for at ; least the first year of life. But i thin milk, skimmed milk, will not nourish. It's the milk that is rich in cream, or fat, that does the work. This is be ! cause fat is positively neces j sary for the growing body. scon's Emulsion contains the best fat, in the form of Cod-Liver Oil, for all I delicate children. ' They thrive greatly under its use. I Soon they weigh more, eat more, l play better and look better. Iff just l the right tWiuon to ineir regular I food. The hypophosphitcioflime Ifana soda in it are necessary to the growth and formation of bone and I teeth.

It Is altogether during the ten years increased j6 per cent, and imports only CO per cent. In the last three years the inequality is even greater, exports having more than doubled, w hlle the Imports of 1S99 were a n ililou less than those of the year before. Exports to the East are so far principally of five items cotton, of which before 1SSJ none was sent to either of the three countries, none to China until 1592. and none to Hong Kong until 1S9S; cotton manufactures, kero sene, wheat flour and iron and steel manufactures the combined value In 1S93 amounting to J-S.S59.635, or about SO per cent of the total. Of the Imports, as would be expected, silk and tea form the principal part, or about "0 per cent of the total, silk for last year being valued at twenty-four millions and tea, at nine. Among the detailed tables, I which occupy more than one hundred I pages of the Bulletin, carrying the stat istics to the last degree of refinement. It is possibly interesting to note that we toon irom cnina last year roriy i million pounds of tea, valued at 16,000, 000, or an average of about 18 2-3 cents a pound, showing a great profit some- where between the grower and the con sumer, and JH0.0C0 worth of firecrack- ers, less than one-third as many as the ' ante- Dut mu81 have !ome material year before, and 1 ss than half the!Palns 48 fruil8 of victory full Inde- averase for the last five vears.

Senator Mason has introduced In the senate a resolution calling upon the state department for all the correspon dence between the government of th United States und the government of Great Britain relative to the Isthmian i canal authorized by the late Secretary J. O. Blaine and also "a chronological recapitulation of the contentions made by the various secretaries of state since the signing of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty as to the validity of this treaty, tins replies by the ,;overnment of Great Britain and the violations of the terms of the treaty on the part of Great Britain which have been held by the government of the United State to have operated as an abroga- Hon of the treatv " The. nunviv nf tho tlon of the treaty. The purpose of the resolution Is announced in the body of It to be to "fiecure from the state de partment a complete explanation as to the attitude of the various secretaries of state relative to the Clayton-Bulwer treaty." In the preamble Gen eral Lew Wallace is quoted as saying Mr. Blaine had told him while secre tary of state that he had written a note to the American minister to Great Britain instructing him to take the position that Great Britain had by her own acts rendered the treaty void, j This statement is contrasted with the statement attributed to the state de partment that Secretary Frelinghuysr.-n was the only secretary of state who had held the view that the Clayton Bulwer treaty had been cancelled. TERMS FOR THE BOERS. New Tork Tribune. Discussion Is already rife of the set tlement that Is to be made In South Africa at the end of the present war. ft seems to be Imagined by some that the war is near It end, and that the 222 l'it "nlii'' '...h"-bY.i - 5 i . - il ..' v i l v'..', 3 Th niir ine ru" Uiltlsh will be triumphant .......i ... i.. H..t. thnir.iM hit Ihev - - should be magnanimous In their trat- :ncnt of the Boers, and It Is intimated probable that they will be made better oil. but It will not be throuh'h the J granting of Independence. The British government has not yet Indicated the form of settlement It will Impose upon the Boers. There Is no doubt that it will act with generosity and klndnesi, as Lord Roberts Is do ing at tho present moment. But neith er is there any doubt that it will es tablish, ome and for all time, its sov ereign authority over the whol-; of South Africa. The government will not be more lenient toward the Boers than Lord Rosebery would, and Lord Uii8ebLry r.aa said emphatically that tbcre can be no repetition of the Ma Jjba surrender. The terms of peace will be dictated by the victor, not by the vanquished. That If the common I ,h.,, -o-n. ,, k, , and there seem to bc no rule of war, reason for departing from It In this "axel Salve." It Is Infallible for piles I and skin diseases.

If they were justified in annexing British territory, why may not the Britltih annex Boer territory? But all these questions will be for the British government to settle when Lord Roberts gets to Pretoria. They are no business of the outside world. There are only a few points of settle ment which concern the world at large, even In an academic sense. One is that the settlement shall be final, and there shall be no loophole left for a renewal of the wretched controversy , that has vexed the land for the last ' quarter of a century. Another Is that j there shall be no race proscription, but j every facility shall be offered for a ' growth of amity and good fellowship " i & , is that South Africa shall be put and arate from the other portion of the Irn kept In line and In touch with clvlllza- j '"",1".
