:
SENATOR SHERMAN has come forward i '
with a silver bill. His proposition is
for the government to purchase large
quantities of silver bullion and have it
cast into bars and deposited in the treas
ury Upon this bullion the govornment
will issue certificates for currency. Or >
dinarily this would be a tolerably safe .
If the coinage of silver .
i
was free there would be no objection to
the proposition because the person hold- ei -
Sn-r the certificate could nt any time call u
for his bullion and have it made into le-
tjal tender dollars. As it stands now ,
however , with a limited coinageand no ai
silver except that belonging to the gov
ernment capable of being transformed J.
into legal tender money , the proposi
tion differs in no essential particular
From one that the government shall store NiNi
arge quantities of wheat in granaries Ni Itt
IttO
ind issue certificates for currency on Ur O :
the wheat. The holder of the certifi-
atcs is not entitled to redemption in
my particular number of dollars speci-
led ou the face of his paper but to a
jertain number of bushels of wheat,1
Hence in no sense can the certificates
be regarded as genuine money or the
representative of money. They are
siuipl } * representatives of wheat and
their value in the market must always
be gathered from the daily market re-
ports , ilr. Sherman's plan is simply
a scheme to practically demoralize the
silver dollar and substitute warehouse
certificates for what are now known as >
silver certificates redeemable in legal
tender notes. State Journal.
IT is said that Secretary Bayard is so
much broken in spirit by the deaths of
his daughter and wife that hevill soon
retire from the cabinet. To a man
forced from public life by domestic ca
lamity the American people are always
sympathetic. As a man of family
Thomas F.-Bayard is a model citizen ,
but as a statesman he has fulfilled his
promise. If he retires from the cabinet
now his public life is ended and his ob
ituary may be placed in the editorial
pigeon hole to await the demise that
will call lor its publication. Topics.
