Seaator Aldrich said the. other day m answer to a question from a Popullt, that he would not accept free stiver If It wt courled with the McKlnlry or any other sort of tariff; that he would not. In fact, accept It under any circum stances except it were accompanied by &B International readjustment of the ratio between tha metals and a ceneral penlna; of the mints of the world to silver. This provoked retorts from Popu lists and silver Republicans that Aldrk-h and his party aro not blmetalllts. Car ter and a few others of his rTlon who have been calling themaeires Republi can pretend they believe the Repub lican platform declaration of lStt prom laea favors to silver, but their opinions at present have no welirht with the Re publican party. The Rhode Island senator Is rUrht on this question of the tariff vs. silver. It the country be forced to wait for new and better tariff legislation until the Reublican party dclarf for free silver, the Wilson-43orman act will remain on am ii"e - to be the purpose of the silverlt Repub lican senators to Join with the Democrats In the Republican congress to be chosn this year and defeat every tariff bill th party frames unless a promise of some sort of favors for silver Is given. If this threat be carried out matters will be simplified for the Republicans. Th're la a strong probability, of course, that the Over men. Including the Republican bolters, will be In a minority In the n?xt senate. If they have a majority, how ever, and the Republican party find that this threat Is to be carried out, the tariff ; win be promptly pushed, and than when defeated will be dropped until the silver forces are reduced to subjection. In th meantime the party will give Us atten tion to other matters, and sllverlsm, whan It comes up, will get tb same sort of treatment It received In the house a f-w weeks ago. Very early In its careet the Republican party adopted the protective policy, but the success of protection was never In all this third of a century of Its champion chip by the Republican party as impera tively demanded aa the rejection of silver levislatioa Is now. The tariff law of 1&4 has not many ardent friends In this coun try even In the party responsible for It, but the Republican party will cheerfully let It stand If the enactment of a better law be made contingent on the debase ment of tha currency. There will be no entangling alliances between protection and fro; silver. Each Issue will be con sldered separately. Attempt have been made on one or two occasions to yoke them together, but all have been failures. It will be well for the mine owners to understand the situation at the start. and to be guided In their partisan attl tude accordingly. The Republican party will Just as resolutely defend the gov ernment's honor and the people's Int-r-esu In tbe future as it did In 1869 when It passed the act to maintain the nation's faith with Its creditors, and as It did In 1K75 when It enacted the law which made every dollar of the people's money worth a hundred cents in gold. The British house of commons is by no means the ideal legislative body, hut there are times when !( does business In such a businesslike way as to make patriotic Americans wish that congress would sit at the feet of the house of commons and learn wisdom. Whh ad mlrably defended coasts and a navy such as the world has never before knowrl, Great Britain se-med to be ready for war with any power; not asking strife, but In a condition of security which afforded the average Briton much satis faction. Far-seMng British statesmen came to the conclusion, however, that much more of naval force was essential to the peace of the empire, so the navy estimates were startllngly large. Of course there was opposition to the gov eminent' program, but It was very fee ble. P olltical considerations were, laid aside by many of the members, and the sentiment of the house was overwhelm ingly In favor of spending whatever mon ey was believed to be necessary for the protection of British Interests in any quarter of the globe. The United States has, comparatively, no coast defenses, even, and while what there Is of our navy Is good, there is not enough of It to cut much of a figure in any of the rows in which we may soon be mixed up. The fact have been placed before con gress, but It has done nothing. It would be disheartening to the active American temperament to be called on to watch the senate In an effort to b as slow in recognizing the Cuban Insurrec tionists a the Spanish government Is in subduing them. Speaker Reed's admirer find encour . agement In the fact that the man who w hi hand first does not necessarily out ahead In the end.

The work recently done by the New York World In querying every hank of consequence In the United States as to Its readiness and ability to utorlle to the new government bond lue was an oject less in the perfection to which ths telegraph service has been brought. The facts and tt figures are astonishing. In carrying out the Idee, one or more message were sent to every city, town and village in the United States that has a banking institution. To reach them all it became necessary to send 10,370 separate telegrams, and. Including re plies, the grand total of ni'-s'ai('-s was about 17,500. The message wer- sent out In two lots. It was decided to flret sound the national banks. To r'ach them all It was necessary to send 3.t',iri telegraphic Inqulrlee. This was done on Sunday nleht, January 5. The Western Union Tlegranh Company had been notified that It would receive this gnat volume of extra business, and Night Manager E. F. Cummlng. at the main office, detailed Frank B. Smith to per sonally attend to trafficking the busi ness. At 6 o'clock In the evening th message were delivered to the Western Union people. By midnight the last had been s-nt. The task of reaching the state and savings banks, trust com panies and private bankers, which was undertaken five nights later, was twice, greater than that of reaching all the national banks, for it was neoessary to send out nearly twice as many messages 6,672. The work was commene'd at 6 o'clock In the evening, and by 2 a. m. every message had been handled. Every message reached the bank as swj as it was open for business. Th great bulk of the answers came In the morning after the messages were sent. It was a great undertaking. Never before had the Western Union Telegraph Company been called upon to handle such a quan tity of messages at any one time by any one person or corporation. Mr. W. Ray ens, the manager of the delivery depart ment at 1S5 Broadway, handled the im mense number of replies In such a man ner as to call forth praise from the World for the prompt service.
