CKKl'lT IS DUE THEM.
It Is fair to say that the president,
while ovcitstimatlng the Importance of
the silver question, has done the coun
try an Imiiiunwe service by stopping the
purchase of silver, which Is substan
tially done. That which he has accom
plished ranhfl with Sherman's useful
ness In restoring tpeclo payments, stop
ping the coinage of Sliver and applying
to the white precious metal the yellow
golden standard.
Fault-finders l-.ive been busy with
Mr. Carlisle, but he supplied from his
department two documents of i;r.!at
pertinence and force the one showing
the license the nil 'or smelters luu I to
draw the coined g-. Pl from the treasury,
und the other demonstrating the Im
practicability und.- present condltlonn
of recolning our slh r on an uncertain
latlo. He has also v.peatedly resisted
tho Issue of natlonu! bonds to gratify
(Ither the exclusive silver or gold men,
and promoted by tho employment of all
facilities to prepare the issue, national
bank paper; and ho has ordered and
urged tho colnnge of gold bullion not
In $20 pieces for deposit In banks, butJ5
pieces for Ihe pockets of tho people.
Senator Voorhees has boon faithful on
the main question, and, while he has
done more than was needful In the way
of reasserting his old errors for the
sake of confusing his fresh antagonists,
he can make out a perfect case that the
icpeal of the silver purchase law makes
for bimetallism. Mr. Wilson the chair
man of th committee on ways and
means, has fitted the position with an
easy familiarity that, whether real or
directed, Is handsome; and In the col
loquial dlscussloiiM In which he has tak
en part, ha has nhovn that he Is In
fcrmed on money questions. Some of
his phrases suggest the studies' of an
expert.
As the silver problem la solved, the
mass of the republicans aiding the dem
ocratic administration to close tho
fcate that has let In the silver flood, the
democracy president and all enter up
on their hard times as partisans. They
havtt been thirty years absent, and they
are strangers lu a strange lnnd. The es
tablishment forever of the policy of
upholding the public, credit among the
foremost of the nations of the earth
will do soimMliliig to give the people
confidence In the country, which Is
themselves. The hooting of the cranks,
the croaking of the Idiots of calamity,
the bellowing of the populists, to whom
till things not conceived In the density
of their Ignorance Is wrong; the gro
tesque demands for tho revival of de;
lui;lons exploded by experience ages
ago will no longer menace the honor
and undermlue the foundations of the
strength of the nation; and this is
great gain, a glorious conclusion.
IUTE3 FnOM NOIiTIl PACIFIC
COAST.
For the benefit of the North Pacific
Const lumbermen, It Is to be hoped that
the CAnudlan Pacific Hallway managers
will persist in the refusal to Join In the
liai.scontliientul agreement proposed by
the Northern Fuctflo and the Ureal
Northern, which, If put Into effect,
would restore the old rate In force
prior to February 23d, last. The new
agreement which went Into effect on
that d Ue, reduced the lumber and shin'
Rle rates eastward, its well as other
fommodlty rate In both directions. The
ii'Mult was a marked increase of east
uarJ movement of forest products from
(he P.ifiyt Sound region.
tlm Cist six months of the
current year, under the influence of
i -
lower rates, shipments of lumber in
creased to the amount of 10,500,000 feet,
and shipments of shingles showed the
enormous Increase of 282,000,000. The
monetary constriction that has seized
the banking Interests, has, in a meas
ure, paralyzed the shingle and lumber
business of the coast, as It has other
portions of the country; that Is, the
demand has dried up, and ' this has
caused a dimlnishment of shipments.
But should the present favorable rates
be continued until confidence In money
matters shall have been restored, and
the demand shall revive and assume a
normal volume, the eastward movement
of shingles and lumber will afford an
enormous traffic to the railways. Hut
should rales be advanced to the old
standard, they wonM greatly cripple
the mill In-liistry. The mnnagers of the
tw ) American roads do not seem to no
tice this feature of the situation, but
are bent oiv saddling tho lumber and
shingle business with all the load the
traffic will bear. With a fatuity that
usually characterizes railway trallic
managers, they are apparently deter
mined to burden an Interest at the very
time when It needs to be fostered by
leasonable rates. ,The southern rail
ways are trying to accomplish a like
result in the lumber trafllc of the re
gion they traverse, but It Is to be hoped
that their blltld eyes will be opened by
the combined effort which the mill op
erators ara making to that end.
It Is announced that the Canadian
Pacific Is standing out against the new
ly proposed transcontinental agreement,
but It is impossible to say in advance
that It will not finally weaken under
the pressure. The coast manufacturers
should unite In opposition to the restor
ation of the old rates, nnd make such
representations to the managers that
they will see it to the Interests of the
lines they repressnt to maintain the
rates now In force. It would be to the
advantage of the eastbound traffic to
make a still lower schedule Instead of
seeking to restore one that was well
nigh prohibitive.
The president is credited with the
purpose of urging the Immediate coin
age of the silver margin. It will be re
membered that the silver bullion we
have bought and dumped was taken at
tho market and not at the coinage val
uation. The difference Is about $50,000,
000 In silver. This leaves the silver bul
lion behind the treasury notes equal to
the face of the notes, coinage value. It
does not make much, If any difference,
because the government redeems those
notes In gold at the option of the hold
er. Tho object of tho colnnge Is tho In
crease of tho currency, nnd that Is
part of thj price of the president's suc
cess with the silver purchnse repeal.
We could handle two hundred millions
more of silver If "we knew and the
world was sure we would stand by that
limitation. The objection to going on
with the coinage now is the possibility
of recolnago soiho day not distant.
"Advertising Is tho beginning, the life
and necessity of modern commerce. The
mainspring of business, the heart of
tho commercial system, without which
no legltimato business can live and
prosper. Advertising Is stock In trade,
the sustalner of cheap newspapers, and
consequently the Indirect means' of unt
versa! education and enlightenment
Hall to the power of advertising."
In Elizabeth, N. J., nn old man of SO
