While the hou of common ha adept d the motion urging upon the govern ment th advisability of doing their ut most to secure an International agree ment, th governmnt Itself, through Sir IftcbaH Hicks-Beach, th chancellor of tb excb.eo.uer, distinctly disavow any Tmpathy with bimetallism. And, un doubtedly, th government only permit ted the adoption of the motion looking to a future conference on the subject out of courtesy to their colleagues, Ar thur Balfour and Hrnry Chapln. who are pronounced blmetalllats. No good, how aver could com of another International conference with th vast weight of Enc lend thrown Into the scale of opposition to an Internationa bimetallic ratio. The aubject presents such enormou dtfSoul tlea that It may easily be ur.dersti.od why the most sanguine of theoretical bl metalltsts should shrink from the ob stacles that confront them.. Some of Ibe more obvloua of these were touch d upon by Hicks-Beach. But the questlcu which precede them all In order Is what ratio to fix. In tb existing condition of things, when th commercial ratio of sliver and gold Is about 3u to !. the de mand of the free silver men of America for a continuation of the old ratla of is to 1 Is preposterous. It la flagrantly dlshonest. It would mean sl.nply re pudiation. No nation in the world would consider It until the commercial ratio nearly approach td that figure. But the changes In the relative value of silver and gold have been so startling and frequent In the past twenty odd years that no government would wish to agree npon a fixed ratio until the two metals bad settled down to something like per manence In their relative values. The enormous Increase In the production of gold, which seems likely to far outrun that of silver, is certain to result in a gradual increase in the relative val ie of silver, or. what is the same thing, a decrease In the relative value of gold. A long time must pass before anything like a durable adjustment of a legal ratio can be fixed by international axree-nent which will stand against the undermin ing Influence of a higher or lower com mercial ratio. The time may and probably will come when ft will be possible to bring about an agreement of the chief commercial countries of the world to support the free coinage of gold and silver at a common ratio. While the benefits of such an arrangement have been vastly exaggerated. It would doubtless tend to maintain the stability of relative values of silver and gold, but it would hardly make much dlffcence in the relative amounts of gold and silver coined. But assuming It to be as beneficial in other respects as some blmetalllsts Imagine, the plain fact Is that for the present ami for many years to come the scheme Is unattainable and therefore Impracti cable. It is, therefore, not worth while for the American people to fool with this the oretical dream of a remotely possible bimetallism In their actual dealings with the monetary phoblems which confront them. We have got to deal with facts as they are, not as we would have th-m. Bimetallism In America alone on the basis of the free coinage of sllvr at the ratio of 16 to L or at any ratio less than that of the market, is simply a chimera. In this time of platform making it Is absurd to even refer to It as a practical solution of the money question. The utmost that can be honestly done for bimetallism in th? double standard senile In any sound money platform Is to make It conditional on the agny.-ment of the chk-f commercial countrlm. Hut until that Is possible, th-re is no o'.her pohi blllty of sound money except in adhering to the standard money of th ? civilize! world, and lifting fllver and paper to a parity with gold, instead of driving gold out of circulation and degrading our currency to lower than the Mexican standard, with all the prodigious cata clysm of rascality on one side and panic en the other Implied In this slump to the silver basis. If the officials at Wasnlngton accept the plea of the Kentucky postmaHter's wife, who says she broke open a letter merely to see what was In it, there Is a sew field open for women. An Insatiable curiosity might excuse the breaking op n of a safe to see what was In it, rirling pockets to see what Is in them, and ev n committing bigamy to see what there Is In It Between the positive announcement that boopskirts are to return and the dead certainty that the bicycle is an ereentlal of woman's equipment, the fen Inlne mind is liable to b sore dis traught this spring.

DKl'EW AND VANPTRKU.T. The Eastern Hallway Magnates Are to Make a Trip to the Faclfl rot. Examiner. The dispatch from New York In Thurs day' Kxamlmr to the effect thai Chaun cev M. rvpew and Cornelius Vanderhllt. the head of the big Vanderhll; tallroad system, intended to pay a vn.t to th Facttic coast L confirmed by a teleeram received vesterday afternoon by Cilon 1 C. F. Crocker from Mr. Depew. "he telegram stated that Mr. IVpew and Mr. Vanderhllt would arrive In New Or leans on Monday next and would start Immediately for this city. The gentlemen have two private cars. Colonel Crocker yesterday issued order to have two cars run as a special train on fast time from New Orleans. He also wired Oeneral Manager Krutts.-h-nitt, who is at Tucson on an Inspecting trip, to proceed at once In hi car to New Orlean and accompany the two dis tinguished gentlemen on their W.atern trip. Colonel Crocker ha arranged to meet them at Los Angeles about the lat ter part of next we-'k. He Intended to go farther east to meet them, but changvsi hi plans on account of having loaned his private car to th untight rs of Governor Levi P. Morton, of New York, a day or two ago In which to travel back home. Th forthcoming visit of Vanderhllt and Pepew to California, together with the fad that J. B. Putcher. one of the directors of the New Tork Cent! a!, and Daniel McCoy, on of the pincers of the same road, are already here waiting for them, ha caused a good d-al of gossip as to whether or not th-- visit of the gentlemen has not some meaning and significance beyond a trip for pleasure ar.d recreation. Stories have been in circulation both here and at the East for some time past to the effect that Vanderhllt was Inter ested In a syndicate orgunixed to pur chase the Union and Central Pacific, if possible, at a foreclosure ale, and In that way rid them of their government debts and operate them as one line. The prospective visit of th gentleman I by some people looked upon as ten. ling to confirm the truth of these stories. Colonel Crocker ysterday admitted that the party would take a trip over the Central Pacific and then return here with the intention of taking a ride over the Mount Shasta route. He also said that he thought It was true that the Vanderbllts were largely Interested In some form or another in the Union Pa cific railroad and were having a good deal to say In the proposed financial reorganisation of that company now be ing considered by Depew. In a further talk about the visit of Vanderhllt 4iid Depw, he ald: "As far as I know anything about the matter. M-?srs. Vanderhllt and D; p, w are simply comlnjr to Callfornit on a pleasure trip. They have nver been here before and think a trip here for recreation at this time of tue year will well repay them I think It I true that Mr. Vanderbilt Is largely Inter sled In the Union Pacific and in It reorgani sation plans. What the gentleman's In tentions may be In reaard to the Union Pacific and other Western ra.!rnad ent r prtses I do not pretend to ki.ow. If he I Interested In any syndical? to buy th Central Pacific I do not know It. I hardly thnlk there Is such a syndleat In existence. I know that ther? have been a good many stories in circulation about such a syndieatL-. In my opinion th-y are not well founded. "All that I know r-ardirig the visit of Messrs. Vandirbllt and Iepew to this coast Is that they will spend a few days In Southern California and In this city and at Del Monte. Th-y then int n 1 to ee the snowsheds .nd the Sierrri Ne vadaa by dayl'ght.

OIneyites Want the School Situation Un derstood Thoroughly. Olney, Or., March 19, 1. Editor Astorlan: Dear Sir: "Taxpayer's" statement In his k-tter to the Herald that Timothy Leahy was In disfavor with perhaps most of the parents and therefore with their children was denied by John Leahy and his party. In order to prove th" truth of that statement. I present the following to the public for their consid eration : "We, the und-rsigned, patrons of School Dlt. No. S. Clatsop county, Or-gon, do hereby certify that If Timothy Leahy be employed a the teacher of the public school of said dlstrirot. our children shall not attz-nd said school. "James Leahy, with seven children. "Alex, and Salonr Corno, with one child. "Alex. Frazer, and wife, with threrf children. "Matilda Krlekson, with two children." The last named person is not a tar payer, but th- others ar-. Two more, Mrs. James I-ahy ar,il Mr. Pier S'-tier, would have signed the aliov-. hail It be n presented to them. Mr. Allen al"o would have ilone so. We thus He !h:it there are iKht let-al voters oppos r to Mr. John Leahy, they being thos- who were at the school m-tlr.g. There were at that meeting also eiht (really only seven) leual voters favorable to him. With such a condition of thing 'onfront Ing him, I can not se- how he can force hi son upon the district as teaeh t. It seems to me that the son himself should see that It cannot well fo done, wh'-n he considers the fact that thirteen iTill dren would not attend school, that num ber being at Past half, if not a majority of all those in the district.
