The Most Important National Event of the
Past Week Forms
MATTHEW MARSHALL'S TOPICAL TEXT
rtTECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIIK DISPATCH.!
Ssw York, March 27. "Tho Future of
Silver" is the title of Matthew Marshall's
article for to-morrow's Sun, which is as fol
lows: The most important event of toe week,
fiom a national point of Ylew, has been un
deniably the defeat of the free 6ilrer coinage
bill on Thursday in the House of Repre
sentatives. Locally, it has bedn overshad
owed by the dissolution of the Standard OH
Trust, the aggrandizement of the American
Sugar Henneries Company through the ab
sorption of the creat Philadelphia refineries,
the apprehended failure of the Richmond
Terminal reorcanization, and by the dis
quieting rumors regarding the next North
ern Paciflo Railroad dividend, hut these
concern only a comparatively few people,
whereas the silver question Involves the in
terests of the entire community, and, to a
certain extent, those of the world.
A significant feature of the vote on the
silver bill is the gradual dwindling away
which it exhibits of the strength of the free
silver cause In Congress. When Mr. Bland,
three weets ago, moved to make his hill tho
special order for Tuesday last, his motion
prevailed by a majority of two to one, and
lie exnltinsly declared that the bill would
pass the House by 40 majority. On Thursday
morning he was still confident of success,
hut reduced his estimated majority to 20.
When the matter was put to the test by Mr.
lint-rows' motion to lay the bill on tho table
Mr. Bland's majority of 20 was found to have
dlsanneared. and his Dill was only saved
from death and burial by the vote of the
Speaker, reducing the majority of one
against it to a tie. An adjournment pre
" vented further proceedings, and a renewed
effort is to be made this week to pass the
bill, but its success is doubtful.
tittle flops for the Silver Bill.
The indications are that either the bill will
he defeated outright, or that an interna
tional conference bill will be substituted for
it. Another significant fact about the ac
tion of the House on Thursday is the dis
tinctly sectional character which it demon
strates of the support of free silver coinage.
The motion to lay Mr. Bland's bill on the
table received the votes of the entire Con
gress delegation of the New England States,
those of all the Benresentatives from this
State, except one. and with a few excep
tions those of the Representatives from all
the other States north of the Ohio river and
east of the Mississippi, with the addition of
Iowa and California. On the other hand, the
Representative of the Southern, South west
ern, and extreme Western States, except
California and Washington, cast their votes
solidly in defence of the bill.
ims snowswnat i nave ireqnently pointed
ont, that on the silver question the older
and richer States are on one side and tho
newer and poorer States on the other. It is
creditors against debtors, lenders against
borrowers.
Politically, Thursday's vote shows that
free silver has in Congress more Democratic
than it has Republican adherents, the Dem
ocratic members having cast 1S3 votes for
Mr. Bland's hill nnd the Republicans only 15,
while against it were t6 Democrats and 62
Republicans. This arises Iroin the fact that
the Southern and Southwestern States are
preponderatlngly Democratic, while the
Eastern and Northern States are largely Re
publican, audit by no means proves that
tree sliver is to he hereafter a Democratic
party measure. Indeed, it is well known
that manv leading Democrats are. like Mr.
Springer, in favor ot not committing their
party on the question until the people have
had time to consider it more maturely and
iq uccodio oetter lniormea in regard to it.
Decay of the rree Silver Craz?.
I am too thoroughly aware of the hazards
of making prophecies in general to make
one in regard to the future of silver. My
esteemed friend, Mr. Springer, early in the
year announced that there would be no
silver legislation by the present Congress,
and if ho had not been stricken down as he
vi as by a dangerous sickness he might have
been able, from his position as Chairman of
the Ways and Means Committee, to make
his prediction come true. His inforced ab
sence from the floor left the House to the
control of Mr. Bland, who in turn has been
disappointed ot the victory which he
thoueht he had surely in his gtasp. The de
cay of the support of free silver coinage in
the House which I have pointed out seems
to me, however, to be indicative that the
measure is losingground. and I feel pretty
sure that Mr. Springer will be found to have
been light In asserting that it will not ho
enacted by the present Congress.
Nevertheless, assnming ft to he true that
free silver coinage has been defeated tor
the present, and that when it comes up
again, next winter or the winter after that,
it will be defeated again, there still remains
to be dealt with the act or July, 1890, which,
like the enchanted mill, has been grinding
out silver currency for the past 20 months,
at the rate otH.VXI.W) per month.so that there
is already $90,000,0Mot it in existence, and by
next December there will hoover 8180,000,000.
Adding this amount to the 84T0.C00 000 in sil
ver previously coined under the old Bland
Allison act, win give u by noxt December a
total of $S30.OC0,O00. If tho act is suffciod to
remain In operation a year after that, and
the price of silver remains whpro it Is, the
total will not bo far from K3001000,000. Can
such a volume of (.liver curreuev in the
country ho maintained without driving out
gold?
Predictions a Bit Too Hazardous.
Here again, it is hazardous to make pre
dictions. I remember, in 1878, when the
Bland-Allison act first took effect, asking
one of the most sagacious and experienced
bankers of Wall street how much silver he
thought the country could absorb and carry
without putting gold at a premium, and got
from him the estimate that $100,000,000 was
the limit beyond which, ir the coinage of
the standard silver dollars was continued,
they would begin to sunplant gold. How far
ne as astray events have shown. We have
already issued $190,000,000 in silver dollars or
their equivalent, and yet they remain at par
witcjgold. Still, there must be a point.which
we shall reach, sooner or later, if we go on,
at which silver and gold will part company,
and, in obedience to Gresham's law, that the
poorer of two currencies always drives out
the better, gold will go either agroad or Into
retirement and leave us only silver.
If. as appears to be the case, the nnmber
of the partisans of sliver free coinage in the
country is diminishing.and that the chances
of its adoption are waning, the lesult must
be attributed to nothing else but a growing
neiception of the truth that the exchanga
ble value or silver bullion cannot he in
creased bylaw, and that under free silver
coinage the currency value of the silver
dollar will sink to something near that of
the amount of bullion In it. alnce this value
Is now about US cents in gold.free silver coin
age will reiult, practically. In scaling nil
debts not specially protected by a stipula
tion for payment in gold down to 68 per
cent of their present amount a result very
agreeable to the debtor, but not at all pleas
ant to the creditor. Therefore, as I said, In
thjfc West and Southwest, whoio there are
numerous debtors whoso creditors livo fur
ther East, free silver finds tho most sup
porters, while among us hero it has compar
atively few of them.
Every Tear's Delay Weakens Bland ism.
As tho West and Southwest grows richer
and gets more and more out of debt, the less
clamorous they will be for the cheap dollar.
The longer, too, that the subject is discussed
the more clearly will the lesult of free coin
age be perceived ana the stronger will the
opposition to it become. Hence, every year's
delay of the measure weakens its chances of
success, until it will finally be abandonirl.
The legitimate result of the act or July, 1890,
on the oAher hand, is not so apparent and
cannot so easily be demonstrated in ad
vance. Nothing, I fear, will'conv'nce the
mass of our citizens that it will eventually
substitute silver Sor gold but the uctnal re
sult as shown bv the disappearance of gold
coin from circulation and the commence
ment of dealings In it as a commodity, such
as prevailed from the passage of the legal
tender act in 1SG.2 until the resumption of
specie payments in 1879. Fortunately, tho
premium of gold, or what is the same thing,
the depreciation or the silver dollar will be
small at first, and only Increase gradually.
The practical demonstration of the ten
dency of the act or July, 1890, may lead to its
lepealbelore it has done lerlous mischief,
just as the growing conviction that free
sliver coinage means a dollar worth only 68
per cent of a gold dollar Is working against
free silver coinage. We shall. Indeed, be
left, after the repeal, with from $500,000,000 to
$800,000,000 of silver currency, which, like the
silver currency in France, will always go to
a discount in gold whenever any consider
able demand for gold for export occurs, but
the discount will be unimportant compared
to that which would result from free stiver
coinage.
An Opinion With a String to It.
My diagnosis of tho future of silver Is,
therefore, this: If, as I expect, the free silver
bill fallB to beoome a law at this session of
Congress, It will fall for this generation. Its
supporters may possibly he oonsoled with an
act calling for an international bl-inetallio
conference, but they will derive no praottcal
benefit from It. Every country In Europe is
obstinately set upon maintaining the single
gold standard, and will not, In onr day, con
sent to five It up. The act of July, 1890, will
he allowed to continue In force until It has
sent gold to a small premium, and will then
lng silver currency, but still retaining gold
as the standard of value. This is th way
the thing looks tome now, though Ireserve
tue ngnt to reverse or mouuy my opimuu
hereafter, as events may require.

THEN AND NOW.
The Wonderful Advance Which Has Been
Made in the World and How It Is
Helping the People.
These Are Tulnable Truths.
Tbero was a tlmo when tho oldest thing that
could he foand was considered tho best, especially
when It came to treating human ills. It li thought
eo no longer. People to-day demand the latest, tho
best, tho moat Improved, the moat sclentlllo, and,
In fact, the last discovery, in order to keep their
health and prolong their lives. This la right; this
Is as It should be.
Doctors formerly bled their patients, but a doctor
who should do so to-day would be arrested for mal
practice. Formerly physicians treated symptoms;
now they treat causes. If yon are nervous. Irrita
ble, run down, restless, sleepless, wlthlos9 Of appe
tite, lack of ambition; If yon feel bine, despondent,
disgusted with lire, -wholly discouraged, these
symptoms are not a disease, only the results of a
disease, simply the results of a broken down ner
vous system. If you feel this way, yonr nerves are
more or less shattered, your health in Jeopardy and
your life in danger.
Ton cannot trifle with these things; you must
meet them, and meet them at once. Nature does
not, will not brook delay. If she Is not assisted,
she calls for assistance or collapse will be the re
sult. But no ordinary assistance will do at such a
time. It must be the most advanced, the most Im
proved, the most sclentluc, in fact, a dlsoorery.
There Is but one discovery of the present day
which will meet all these requirement, which will
'nevltably remove all of these unpleasant symptoms
by restoring the shattered nervous system, which
causes them. That discovery is Palne's Celery
Compound. It was originated by Professor Phelps,
or Dartmouth College, after years of careful study,
and after being brought In contact with number
less men and women whose shattered nerves and
broken health proved to htm the great necessity
for such a discovery. It has been found, and it
is doing more to-day to bring despondent women
to a 6tate of health and happiness, to restore brok
en down men to strength and visor than any other
discovery of the past or the present day. It is
warmly Indorsed by all who have used It, and is the
most popular preparation now known to the world.
The following are a few of the commendations in Its
favor, all of which are most outspoken:
"I have been a victim of nerve and heart troubles
for the last Ave years, with a terrible throbbing of
ray heart whenever trying to perform any kind of
labor. I could not sleep nights on account of my
nerves. I tried many remedies, but none proved a
success until I used Palne's Celery Compound.
My physician, J. Camp, M. D says he must
confess that Palne's Celery Compound has per
formed a miracle in my case. 1 speak with heart
felt earnestness when I recommend the Compound
to every sufferer.1 Tours respectfully,
M. E. WEIGHT,
Bangor, Mich.
"Last year my husband was laid npforabou
four months with rheumatism, cramps, etc. lie
was very nervous, often not getting two hours'
sleep a night. He haa a doctor nearly every day
but finally commenced taking Palne's Celery Com
pound, and now he sleeps as well a9 anyone, and
does no have a touch of rheumatism.
For ten years past I have had distressing neural
gic headaches. Sometimes the ache is mostly in
the forepart of my head and eyes and sometimes
in the top of my head, when It seems as if then
were a five-pound flatiron on it. Last winter It
eeemed Impossible for me to do any work, but I
have done it all this winter, and felt equal to It. It
Is really wonderful the good Palne's Celery Com
pound has done ns.
Ton may use our names if you wish, for we can't
say too much of the Compound."
Tours respectfully.
MRS. F. O. WILLARD,
Leominster, Mass.
"For over twenty years I had spells that the
doctor at first called neuralgia of the stomach, and
then they came in all the internal organs. Thev
kept getting worse all the time, so that for a year
before using Palne's Celery Compound I was
down sick. 1 think these spells were caused by a
fall. My liver, kidneys and digestion were very
baa.
I tried so many things without help that I was
completely discouraged. Afer spending hundreds
of dollars for no good, I saw the Compound adver
tised. It certainly saved my life, and I shall keep
praising it as long as I live.
I send you my picture, and wish I had one before
using Palne's Celery Compound, for looks tell
more than words. My nerves and complexion
were very bad. bnt arc all right now. Iwaathe
first one to nse the Compound here, but now they
sell more of It than of anything else. It has put
me In such condition that I can nurse my baby
now. when before I had to feed her."
Very trulv yours,
MARTHA ARNOLD,

We may congratulate ourselves that we live in
an age of such great advancement and such marked
Improvements. -An age that enables us to live
