"A WESTERN FINANCIAL POLI
CY:' Some of the eastern papers, it seem-,
fear that a "western financial policy"
will be aJoptcil bj the incoming admin
istration. According to one of these
journal "the situation id viewed with
apprehension by leading eastern repub
licans." Treasury management and the
"national finances are to be emancipated
from the domination of New York
ideas." There is to be a new departure
in the method of conducting the financial
end of the gorernai'.'nt, which is to bi
carried on along western lines. As a
con.3cqueo.ca some of the eastern repub
lican chieftain, so the report goes, seeii
the near future visions of widespread in
dustrial wreck and consequent part
disaster.
All this may be vry alarming to the
coterie of timid and mentally dyspeptic
eastern politicians and journalists whi
entertain this notion. In the west, how
ever, this talk, where it attracts any at
tention at all. calls out nothing nior
serious than a smile of amusemeut. The
fact is, of course, soundness and con
servatisni in financial matters are quali
ties which are not restricted to any pai
ticular section of the country. Tiny,
equally with their opposites, arc found in
the west as well as the east, in the south
as well as the north. Greenliackism
flourished east as well as west of the Al
leghenies, altough it took deeper root ii.
the minds of the people and existed Iongf r
on the westerly side of that line than it
did on the other side. Hut here as well
as there it has ben dead and buried f cr
years past.
There will bs no attempt by the finan
cial officers of the Harrison administra
tion to cither revive grecLbacktsai or to
uu duly discrimin iti in favor of. silver.
Eastern men may rely on the accuracy of
this statement. Th 3 silver coinage law
will be enforced to the same extent th-1
it has been enforced since the law wm
creation. The minimum amount of silyt r
which the law preicribos will ba coined,
and not a cent more. Sherman, Wiudoni
an J McCdllozh, all western hi-ju, who
have been at the head of the treaur
department since the Bland-Allison la
was p aced on the national statute book,
sent $2,000,003 worth of silver bullion
to the mints to be made into standard
dollars each month, as the law prescribes,
but not one of them showed any desire
to pinh the coinage up to the $4, 000,000
limit which the law permits. Nor will
any western man whom President Harrison
may sefcet for that post go farther in this
direction than his predecessors went.

MORALITY AND THE VUliLIC
SCHOOLS. -
Daring his convalescence several
months ago Cardinal Manning prepared
a review of the workings of the public
school system, especially in the United
States, which appears in the Forum ft r
3Iarch. He regards compulsory state
education as the cause of great evil to
society and he attributes much of the
growth of crime in certain sections ci
the Unit d States to the vicious effects
of secular teaching. He writes:
"Compulsory education withoutrte
choice and provision for that free choice
in matters of religiem and conscience. i.
and evt-n must be, unjust and destructive
of the moral life of a people. Education
that is only secular dooms religion to
gradual extinction. Education that is
common violates conscience. Education
that is secular, common ana compulsory
violates the rights both of parents and
of children. Having in 18S3, asked my
own contrymen, Is the Christianity tf
England worth preserving? affirming;,
as I do, that the board-school system
tends inevitably to its extinction, I will
ask my American brethren, both Catholic
and Protestant, ' Is the Christianity of
America worth preserving? being ration
ally and firmly convinced that the public"
school system also tends inevitably to its
extinction. As I appcaleel years - ago to
Che Christian conscience of England in
Anglicans, . Nonconformists of every
name, and in Catholics, so now I would
appeal to the Christian conscience of the
descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers, and
to those who forsook home, and all that
the world counts dearest, for lilxjrty of
conscience, to defend themselves from
secular meddling in faith ajd religion.
I cannot see: 1. How the state can retain
its purely secular character and action if
the Bible be introduced into the schools.
The Bible is immutably a code of religion.
'1. Nor how the state can order its .intro
duction without violating the religious
conscience fcnd spiritual independence of
the American people. 3. Nor how the
reading of the Bible in any sense but its
own true sense can eelucate the children
of Christian parents. 4. Nor how the
reading of it cau counterbalance the
intrinsic moral evils of the common
school system, especially in the violation
of parental authority aud the destruction
of the instincts of home."
THE CHINESE MAY EVENTU
ALLY MANUFACTURE FOR
THE WORLD.
Li Hung Chang, the Viceroy of China,
the other day talked thus to an American
correspondent:
"Before half a century has passed
China will be covered with railways as
vith a net. Its immense mineral re
sources will be eleveloped. It wiil have
rolling mills and furnaces ia many parts
of the country, and it is not impossible
fiat it may do the manufacturing for the
world. It seems to me that the most
'wrious question which menaces the work
ing people of your country and Europe
lies here. The Chinese have shown
themselves to be as intelligent anel as
-killful as any people in the world.
They will work hard anel they can live
cheaper than your people, and when our
ountry is opan to railways and it has
niriu-d its attention to supplying the
narkets of the world, I believe it can
-upply them better and cheaper than you
an. This is a question which jou will
have to face."
The same spirit that passed the Chinese
Exclusion law, says the Pittsburgh Com
mercial Gazette, will pass laws ex
eluding Chinese goods. There will be
to scaling elown of wages and modes of
living to compete with Chinese . goods
ny more than there was to compete
with the Chinese themselves. Protection
the old standby of the American people,
will be relied upon. The question of
competition with the millions of cheap
workmen is of more serious impor
tance to Free Trade England than
it is te us. What will tshe elo when
China has reached tha manufacturing
lcvelopment spoken of by her Viceroy?
Unless she has resource to the protective
system she has long tried and now tries
to break elown, her workmen will be re
luced to the level of the Chinese labor
that it must compete with. American

in connection with tha performance of

Tho scene of ghostly experience has
boon shifted to the sea. An English
newpaper says tho mato of a ship, name
not given, ordered some of tho youths to
reef tho maintopsail. VvTien tho tirst got
up ho heard a strange voice saying, "It
blows hard!" The lad waited for no
more; ho was down in a trice and told
his adventure. A second immediately
ascended, laughing at the folly of his
companion, but returned even more
quickly, declaring that he was quite 6ure
that a voice, not of this world, had cried
in his ear, "It blows hard!" Another
went, and another, but each came back
with the saine tale.
At length the mate having sent up tho
whole watch, ran up tho sliroueU him
self, and when ho reached the haunted
spot heard the dreadful words distinctly
uttered in his ear:
"It blows hard."
"Ay, ay, old one, but blow it ever so
hard, we must ease tho earrings for all
that," replied the mate undauntedly,
cad looking around he 6aw a Cno parrot
pe-rched on one of tho clews tho
thoughtless author of tho false alarms
which had probably escaped . from some
other vessel to take ref ugo on this.
Another of our officers mentioned that
on ono of his voyages ho remembered a
boy having been sent up to clear a rope
which had got foul above the mizzentip.
Presently, however, ho came back tre m
