WHY QOID IS EXPORTED.
The Portland Dispatoh says: "The
question naturally ariBes, what is all the
gold going out ot the ooudtry for at pres
ent? It is not being exported for foreign
anemilation. bnt to nay debts .due the
the foreigners. Bence, if this gold i
used for this purpose, the obligations, be
they railroad, state, national or other
bonds, will bo brought back in plaoe of
the gold and in future, the interest on
these obligations will be paid to ourowu
citiiens, and with our surplus exports
will force this same gold back, and in the
end it will be better and a reaction will
be the natural result. TbiB export sim
ply means that foreign speculators have
been compelled to draw in their invest
ments in this country and that there is
the necessary ooin here to meet this de
mand; besides the Beourities are sought
in this country as investments. It is
very evident that our government can
stand the strain and suooessfully meet
all its obligations. The resources of this
country have not yet been fully tested.''
Against this statement is that of the
Wall street Investigator, which ascribes
a totally different onuse for the export of
gold. That paper saye:
"It is not neoessary to go far to find
the explanation for the continued exports
of gold. Tbe foreign trade figures for
the part of New York alone furnish this.
In the past week the imports ot foreign
merchandise at New York were valued
at 815,675,51)4, and the exports at only
$0,006,746, whieh must be paid for in
something besides goods. Since Jan. 1st,
the imports at this port exceeded the ex
ports by S'.lt2,04R,7r6, Bud tbe movement
still continues. How is this large bal
anoe against na to be settled? We are
not selling Europe any big amount of
our securities, and the only other way to
make payment is to scud gold, as we are
doing-

Th Kooky Mountain News says:
"Dumping gold into the New York sub.
treasury is like pouring water into a rat

THE KIIANCII ASYLUM.
The committees to locate the new in
sane asylum for Eastern Oregon has a
disagreeable as well us a responsible
task. There is the eharpestoompetition
for the prize, and the places that are un
successful will always believe that a
mint nke was made when the successful
town is named.
Eastern Oregon has many bright
towns, among which are The Dalles,
Heppner, Pendleton, La Grande, Union,
Milton aud Baker City. As far as this
section is conoerued it has little or no
preference. Its ouly desire is that the
state make the best deal possible, and
combine with a favorable laud purchase
conditions which will always be benett
cial to health.
Esstorn Oregon has an excellent
climate, remarkable resouroes, indica
tions of growth and prosperity, and the
looation of a branch insane asylum there
is simply in line with the needs of every
developing seotion. Probubly it has no
more aud perhaps not as many people
suitable to be inmates as other sections
of tbe country, but for the sake of con
venience aud accessibility it was neoes
sary that an asylum be located here.
Whichever of the above-mentioned
towns is the winner in the oontest, the
needs of Eastern Oregon will be well
satisfied. Telegram.

blLVEU l'llOBPECTS HKIlillTENlNH.
From the Hult Lake Tribune.
The good news came yesterday thut
Mr. Cleveland had determined, if pos
sible, to return tbe old delegates to the
international congress and to give no
added instructions to those given by
his predecessors. This is, as we consider
it most fortunate, if true, because tbe
first impreBBiou it will give the men
beyond the sea will be thut while govern
ments obange iu Ameriaa, the only
ohanges are ou mutters ot policy, and
that all governments aud all parties iu
our country have the common good of
the people us the motive behind them.
Should Mr. Clevehvud return the old
commission uuder the old instructions,
it would iu a moment close the mouths
of those men who said last winter that
the American delegates really repre
sented nothing but a government that
in three months would be out of power.
Wo are hopeful for more reasons than
one. The following letter from Mr.
Frencu came yesterday. So soon as
the magazine referred to in the letter
arrives we shall give the substance ot
tbe article to our renders. It is im
portant, inasmuch as its hows tbe con
version of a most eminent man from tbe
single to tbe double standard. The
letter is as follows:
EuiTOR Tmm'ne: A paper of great
importauae appears in the Nineteenth
Ceutury Review for April. lis title is
"Bimetallism Once More:" tbe writer is
the Right Honorable Leouard Courtney,
el -editor of the Loudon Times, lute
chairman of the oniiimittee of the bouse
ot commons, and who as a member of
the royal currency commission, which
reported five years ago, gave at that
time his adhesion to tbe single gold
Btuudurd. You will bear in mind that
of twelve commissioners six reported- in
favor ot biuetallism, six in favor of
"gold." Mr. Courtney now oomes out
Willi a frank recantation of tbe views
be then held, lie concludes his paper
with these words (when signing tbe re
port of the currency commission) "five
years ago 1 joiued with my friends in
deprecating any attempt to establish an
international agreement for the free
village of both gold and silver as stand -

belief that such an agreement is to be

plished with the miuimnm of change Bud

the world on the couditiouB 1 have sug

feared on this aide. He made this

the following from the Currency Re
form:
And now gentlemen. I must turn tor a
few moments and when I use tbe term
moments, although the question 1 am
bdoui lo deal with is a question wmcn
it would take hours to elucidate, and I
am afraid that after tbe patient hearing
you have given me on the subject ol

principal labor question of the day, you
would not willingly Bit another hour in

siderations, when 1 speak ot moments
I really mean to trespass on your farther
attention tor only a very limited space
of time. But after tbe highly interest
ing conversation whioh was my privilege
to bold this morning with gentlemen
well qualified to represent your views
and the views of a large and steadily
growing eeotion of publio opinion on tbe
intricate question of tbe necessity for
wnom more or less adequate adaption
of tbe standard of value to the changed
conditions under wbiob in our day tbe
interchange of commodities is carried on,
1 must turn for a few moments to wbat
is familiarly known as the question of
currency reform. Now, I am sure we
all have a most profound veneration for
tbe currency, and there are at least three
aspects in which the subjeot might be
regarded, but as time is at present of
great value you are familiar with tbe
popular and highly expressive saying
that time is money, and it has acurrenoy
of its own wbiob we cannot, and ut the
time ot life at wbiob 1 have now arrived
I especially must not, disregard I shall
content mysel. with saving in a single
word that onrrency reform means bi
metallism. Loud and prolonged cheer
ing. I might refer you to my former
utteranoe on this question, but though I
am not aware that any of the principals
wbiob I have on previous oooasionb enuu
ciated are obsolete or inapplicable to ex
isting conditions, I am now in a position
to sy that l regard bimetallism as
question wbiob is fully ripe for discus
sion, and that we are rapidly approach
ng the time when it must bcoome ripe
for settlement on a broad and final basis.
Gentlemen, we are bound to take into
our oonai(ition not only tbe limited
class of crto"rs tor whom an appeoiat
ing standard ot value has naturally i
strong and irresistible attraction; but we
must acknowledge that it is tbe duty of
a democratic legislature to supply the
muoh larger class of people wbo require
money for tbe payment of their oebts
with a currency to whioh they may have
acoeBS on easier terms, Loud applause.
It is essential, at the same time, to pro
vide a standard of value wbioh shall be
as little fluctuating as tbe variable oon
ditions regulating the supply and the
demand for tbe preoions metals will
permit. Now, it has been demonstrated
by Mr. Giffen and other high authorities
that witbin tbe last few years gold has
varied from 20 to 25 per cent, and even
from 30 to 40 per oent. iu relation to
other commodities. The people, whose
judgement on all such questions must
be tioal, guided by that divine intuition
whioh distinguisbes those whom I may
oull tbe masses from tbe more artificially
moulded components of society desig
nated the classes, have arrived Bt tlu
oonolusion that, to correct the variable
tendenoy of gold, it must, as a staudard
of value and as a legal medium for the
interchange of o mmodities, be linked
inuissoliihly with silver. It has been
said that it passes the wit ot man to
devise a scheme by which a variable
standard of value shall be made less
fluctuating by linking it with another
metal which is much more variable.
But I say there ate at least twenty ways
in whioh tbe desired end may be at
tained, or at least approached in such a
degree as may appreciably alleviate the
present unfavorable conditions, and it
will be the duty of any government
whioh you may o boose to administer tbe
ail tors ot this country to find a plan
and to provide for tbe debtors and thi
wage-earn'jrs of tbe country that plecti
ful supply of ourrent coin wbiob tbey
most reasonably demand as an elemen
tnry right, and at the same time to
secure for farmers and other producers
those higher prioes for their commodi
ties which they have an equal right to
insist upon." Loud and long applause.

to announce his recovery and return to

scription of his illness: "I was locked
up in the Fannie Padlock Hospital,
Taooma, for quite a spell and had a
tough time. It was all the result of
rough riding while scouting with the
regular army in the Indian wars in 1877

since. Finally I bad to go to the hos

but four days after, when the reaction
came, I caught it. I had on a night

collar, whioh gave Old Death a good
plaoe to grip, and be gripped hard. I
died a few times, but I am glad I am not

Not Heke. Tbe stateme nt is current
with our newspapers that a traveling
man, representing a supposed produce
and commission bouse, C. A. Dulton &
Co., of Frisco and Portland, hod worked
off one of bis checks for 885 on a
fl eppoer bank. It is not true. Our boys
are pretty hard to trap. The story goes
that each of the banks bad received a
letter from C. A. Dalton &Co., tbissnpijos
ed produoe and commission firm of Han
Francisoo and Portland, to the effect
that they had enolosed to their traveling
man a cheek for 885 and also enclosing
the traveling man's signature. The
check being for such small amounts, ths
cashier at eaoh bank felt no suspicion
and the traveling man's signature of en
dorsement being all right, his checks
were oashed without inquiring into tbe
standing of tbe firm. Investigation,
however, ahowed the so-oalled firm of
C. A. Dalton & Co. to be an imaginary
establishment and the ohecks worthless,
but tbe traveling man had departed be
fore tbe discovery was made.
