SOME FACTS-
Secretary CarUs'e's orJtr to tho mint
superintendents to prepare for the coinage
into standard dollars of the silver bullion
purchased under the Sherman act indicate!
a decided change in policy on the prt of
the administration in regard to the gov
ernment's silver holdings. With silver
purchases at an end, the administration
proposes to utilize the seigniorage which
w ill be gained by the coinage of the bul
lion, and in this way help to rtl!eve the
treasury, which is confronted with a deficit
of ?-jO,000,000 at the close of the fiscal year.
If the full amount of the bullion is coin
ed the seigniorage that will be paid into
the treasury will approximate; S"j,0o0,O0O:
but, with the limited capacity of the mints
the whole of this sum will not be available
for three or four years. Jbe secretary of
the treasury cannot anticipate the seignior
age, or, In other words, calculate the
amount, and then issue oilver certificates on
this basis, for the reason tho seignioeage
does not become a treasury H3ct under the
law until the bullion is actually coined
The additions to tho treasury balantcs from
this source, therefore, will hardly exceed
$1,500,000 t month.
JLiut for the provision in the Sherman
law which directed that 2,000,(00 ounces
of silver should bo coined each month until
July 1, )8!)1, about one year after the pas
nago of the law, no seigniorage would have
been utilized up to this time, as no o'her
iilver dollars have been coined.
That the administration shou'd adopt
the policy indicated, shows plainly that
the treasury is in need of immediate aid to
meet the demands upon it. The seigniorage
on the basis of the iiG.OOO.GOO silver dollars
coined during the first year amounted to
$6,900,000, and the greater part of this was 1
used by Secretary Foster. If ti.o silver!
bullion had been coined from the first for
redemption purposes the treasury depart
ment would be abla to immediately isue
upward of $20,000,000 of silver certificales
on the accumulated seigniorage. l!ut the
silver has been stored in the vaults' and
now in order to realize the seigniorage the
Vast amount will liavo to bo turned into
standard dollars.
Perhaps the usj of this seigniorage wjuld
not have been advised if the Sherman law
had not been repealed and the purchase of
silver stopped. If this seigniorage had
been taken advantage of '.lie issno of certi
ficates thereon might have served to further
disturb public confidence. With the chief
source of alarm removed and the issue of
treasury noies limited, however, it is not
thought that the issuo w ill have any tad
effect. Tho uso of the seigniorage in this
way will have the effect of increasing the
circulation, and this is tho only means,
oatside of the bank circulation of bonds,
that is provided for making such increase.
I will not ciiil tho increase under the
Sherman law, but figuring on tho capacity
of the mints, it will nmount to upward of
eit. 000.000 a year.
The operation of the new policy, however,
uny lead to the retirement of the treasury
n'Jtes of small denomination. When notes
of this character are redeemed the secretary
may not reissue them, but uso silver dol
lars in their place.
Kvcry dollar so redeemed would S3 add
to the protection of the gold reserve. Treas
ures are redeemable in gold or sliver coin
at the option of tho secretary, and they
have played an important part in the with
drawal of gold for export. According to
treasury figures, no less than $.V2,2o0.000 of
tho issue of S152.000.000 has boon redeem
ed in gold. Just what the secretary's plans
arc in this connection no one knows, and it
is doubtful If any lino of policy bearing on
this point has been decided upon by the
itdminis'ration.
THE ELECTIONS,
While at this writing it Is not possible
to speak with certainty as to the result in
tho'e sta'es about wi.ich there was any
doubt, it must be conceded that large re
publican gains appear to have been made.
This need occasion no surprise. It is a
rule in politics all the wo'ld over that the
party in power always suffers if a year in
which an election is he'd happens to be a
bad year in business, If the republicans
had been in charge of the administration
the democrats vould have swept things.
It was to be expee'ed that the firt election
after the presidential contest would show
some reaction, and that reaction has been
intensified by the hard times. When coo
gress has taken action upon tariff reform
and business has begun to lecovcr there
will be a different story to tell. Seattle
