England is willing to join n the International remonetlxatlon of silver to the extent of "reopening the mints of India," the news from London Is. Ex- Si nator John R Henderson would put It In different form. "English statesmen." he said, "are too adroit ever to accept free coinage for themselves. But to our roving free silver commission the temptations of self-ta- teres t, lt scema. have suggested that. while England Is not yel prepared to accept, she may possibly use har be offlcea to induce India to join the United States In the astounding scheme of self- destruction," From the comments made in the pa- pers about England's proposed contribu- Uon to International bimetallism lt Is ...I 1.... .

This rupee had been the army and navy people are looking made a silver tender, not by the English forward to a situation which may easily parliament, hut by the Indian council. ' become serious. They have seen enough possessing full legislative powers in that ; to satisfy them that this Is to be an behalf for India. About that time silver administration with a robust American commenced to decline. It continued to : policy. depreciate until July, 1X3. when lis In. trintdc value was only half what it had been sixteen years before.

For sixteen years lier people received only partial pa' for the products of their labor. Ey al- lowing- more for silver than other na- exports, until the silver panic of ttJ disclosed the sfartllng fact that the r- tums from the skill and patient libor of a great nation for half a lifetime had lost more than half their value. In all this there was nothing new. It was hut universal experience experience con densed into a single sentence by Mr. Hamilton, when he said: 'It is evident that as often as a country which over- rates either of the metals receives a payment In that metal it gets a Uss actual quantity than It ought to do, or leas than it would if the rate were s j Just one.' j "England." continue.! Gen. Hendrrson. ' "paid India for wheat and other pro ducts In silver bullion, and the Indian merchant receiving it hoped to reimburse j himself by coining this bullion into ru- oee. and then forcinz It under i,ai ; to r.der laws upon the farmer an. man- ufacturer at double its intrinsic value. When the Impoverished people came to realize this startling fact In iy.3, they demanded that free coinage be stopped. They did not go to parliament. The English parliament had nothing to do with lt. Under the system of govern ment devised for India, this power, with all other municipal powers, was vesid In a council chiefly composed ot na-lve Indians. Action, prompt and decisive, was necessary to save the nation from Irretrievable ruin. For sixteen years En gland rc-ajied a rich harvest from India folly. It brought great wealth to English merchants, but it carried poverty and ruin to India. India is Just now recov ering from her wild delirium. If En gland is willing to cast aside ail sense of Justice to the people of a most valuable part of the English empire, if she Is willing to abandon all pretensions to honesty and good government, and to enter upon the most selfish and disrepu table scheme to rob India for the benefit of England, then, and only then, will the government encourage a renewal of free coinage In India." The Globe-Democrat says: When the announcement was made that the preo d9t was going' to send In a jnessage aeJUtur authority to appoint a currency eptn&lsslon, tbee was uncovered a cu rlope eonditton to the United States een U)a The fact that the republicans bad gtysa the demoomzs a promise was made ksjsTUb East? n the extraordinary scb si t pleOW pawed that nothing but the tariff bill In new legislation would bo attempted.
