On coming through the train again Mr. Roberta touched his arm and said: “ W hy did you not ask for my ticket?" Rather abashed, the conductor replied that he presumed he had his pass. “ Do you know who I am?" uext asked Mr. Roberts. “ Yes, sir,” replied the conductor; “ yon »re the president of the road." “ Granted that 1 am. It is your duty to allow nobody to ride over this road without showing a ticket. Always hear that in mind." The conductor promised to do so in the future and passed on. After the next station had been passed he again eauie through the train for tickets and, com­ ing to Mr. Roberts, stopped and de­ manded to s e e his ticket.

OBJECTIONS TO THE HIM.. Having referred to some incidents which 1 deem relevant to the subject, it remains for me to submit a specific statement of my objections to the hill now under consideration. This bill con­ sists of two sections, excluding the one which merely appropriates a sum suffi­ cient to carry the act into effect. The first section provides for the im­ mediate coinage uf the silver bullion in tlie treasury, which represents the eo- called gain or seigniorage which would arise from coining all the bullion on hand, which gain or seigniorage this sections declares to he $55,156,681. It directs the money so coined, or certifi­ cates issued thereon, shall be used in payment of public expenditures, and provides that if the needs of the treas­ ury demand it the ¡Secretary of the Treasury may, in liis discretion, issue silver certificates in excess of such coin­ age, not exceeding the amount of the seigniorage in said section authorized to be coined, , President sent to the House the following message vetoing the Bland seigniorage b ill: To the House of Representatives: I return without my approval House bill No. 4,5it6, entitled “ An art directing the coinage of tlie silver bull’ >n held in the treasury and for otlmr -Dtir, ose».” My strong desire to at old a disagreement with those in lioth Houses of Congress who have supported this bill would lead me to approve it if I eould believe the public good would not he endangered, and that such action on my part would be a proper discharge of my official duty. Inasmuch, however, as I am unable to satisfy myself that the proposed legisla­ tion was either wise or opportune, my conception of the obligations and re­ sponsibilities attached to the great office I hold forbids the indulgence of my per­ sonal desire, and inexorably confines me to that course which is dictated by my COINING THE REMAINDER. reason and judgment and pointed out The second section directs that as by a sincere purpose to protect and pro­ soon as possible after the coinage of this mote the general interests of our people. seigniorage the remainder of the bullion held by the government shall be coined LAST Y E A R ’ S PANIC.

On the the contrary, I am in favor of it. When­ ever we have made an attempt to do anything in this or similar matters this treaty arises like a buybear to confront us. The treaty is not in force, and never has lieen. Great Britain has violated it lie and again, and I believe that we ought fiy legislation set it aside and ab­ rogate it entirely.

He also says there is not a district where a United States Court is hekl that is not in need of money for the support of United States prisoners. The jailers are needy men.
