In Paint s&ssrssi
White Lead is best: properly applied
it will not scale, chip, chalk, or rub
off; it firmly adheres to the wood and
forms a permanent base for repainting.
Paints which peel or scale have to be
removed by scraping or burning before
satisfactory repainting can be done.
When buying it is important to obtain
Strictly Pure
White Lead
properly made. Time has proven that
white lead made by the "Old Dutch"
process of slow corrosion possesses
qualities that cannot be obtained by
any other method of manufacture. This
process consumes four to six months
time, and produces the brands that
have given White Lead its character
as the standard paint.
"Armstrong & McKelvy"
44 Beymer-Bauman" " Fahnestock"
44 Davis-Chambers"
are Standard brands of strictly pure
Lead made by the "Old Dutch" pro
cess. You get the best in buying them.
You can produce any desired color by
tinting these brands of white Uad with
National Lead Co.'s Pure White Lead
Tinting Colors.

A Gold Premium.
Wtat would happen if the Treasury gold
gave outt The suspension of gold pay
ments by the government in the near
future is a possibility, even though not a
probability. The Treasury gold reserve is
small, and is subject to possible heavy
drafts; the government may be compelled
to resort to the payment of some of its
obligations—perhaps the Treasury notes
of 1890—in silver. What would the con
sequences be t
The first simple consequence would be a
premium upon gold. Gold would not be
supplied by the Treasury in exchange for
other money, as it is now, and as it has
been ever since the resumption of specie
payments in 1879. The banks ani* other
holders of gold would prefer to hold it for
possible or actual need, and would pay to
their creditors and would use in ordinary
transactions legal-tender notes and other
familiar forms of currency. Those who
must have gold, such as importers, dealers
in foreign exchange, persons and corpora
tions having to make payments spec ified
in gold, would have to bid for it at a pre
mium.
But the extent of that premium would
be a matter of uncertainty and of specula
tion. Not infrequently we are told th t
the suspention of gold payments by the
Treasury would bring us at once to a silver
basis, and to a premium upon gold cor
responding to the difference between the
intrinsic value of the silver dollar and the
gold dollar. The silver dollar is now
worth, roughly, two-thirds of the gold dol
lar: that is, the premium would be 50 per
cent., and the gold would be worth 150.
But it is certain that no change of this sort
would occur. The gold premium would
begin by being small—one or two per cent.
—and its range at the beginning would be
moderate. If it were expected that the
Treasury would soon resume gold pay
ments by getting possesion, in 3ne way or
another, of a fresh reserve stock, the pre
mium would be insignificant. If it were
feared that the suspension would last, and
if it should happen at the same time that
there was a heavy export demand for
specie or a heavy need of gold for other
payments, the premium might rise higher.
Its extent would be a matter of specula
tion, and io some extent would be affected
by gambling operations, such as those
which affected the price of silver in 1890,
or now affect the current prioes of stocks
and grain. If the suspension proved defin
itive, we may be sure that the gold ex
change would again be opened. Gold
would be bought and sold for future de
livery and on margin, and its price would
be affected by rumors and corners and
deals.
For a long time, however, it is certain
that paper currency—whether greenbacks,
Treasury notes, bank notes, or even silver
dollars and certificates—would be worth
as money more than the silver dollar is
worth intrinsically. The currency would
be at a discount as compared with the gold
coin, but it would be worth more than the
silver coin. This anomalous monetary
situation existed in Austria for a long
series of years. There, too, the paper cur
rency in circulation was nominally based
on gold, but was irredeemable, and gold
was at a premium. The paper was also
rated in terms of a silver coin having an
intrinsic value much less than gold. Not
redeemable in gold, it was yet worth more
than the silver, and this curious state of
things is but now being put an end to in
Austria by the resumption of specie pay
ments on a gold basis. If the Treasury of
the United States were to suspend gold
payments, we should be in precisely the
same situation. Even if the suspension
proved definitive, and the gold premium
became considerable, wo should remain in
that condition for a long series of years,
until eventually the currency should so de
preciate that the premium on gold corres
ponded to the difference between the in
trinsic value of the silver and the gold
dollar.
So far as the immediate effects of the sus
pension go, general industsy would feel it
little. Some of the opponents of the silver
mania are perhaps disposed to exaggerate
the direct consequences of the financial
collapse. In the business world things
would go on in the main very much as
they have gone on. The Stock Exchange
doubtless would experience a shock, and
the professional buyers and sellers of stock
would be embarrassed. But the every day
business world at the ontset would notice
the change but little. All those who had
to do with international trade, would, in
deed, be concerned at once. Importers
would have to pay a premium on foreigu
exchange corresponding to the premium
on gold, aud exporters would get that pre
mium. The disturbance here would bo
real and perhaps serious. But the great
bulk of our exchanges is purely domestic,
and to them the change would be of no im
mediate concern. What the permanent
effects on the generul business community
would be is another question. If the gold
suspension proved delinite, if the issue of
Treasury notes or other currency contin
ued in undiminished volume, we should
doubtless have in the end a tendency to a
lise in prices, and very likely a new per
iod of inflation and speculation, culmina
ting in the inevitable crisis. But conse
quences of this sort work themselves out
only after years.
The financial depression of the lust few
months has largely discounted the direct
and immediate effects which the suspen
sion might cause. Coming suddenly, or
unexpectedly, a Treasury collapse would
shatter credit, and might easily precipitate
a crisis. The fear of a collapse has been a
leading factor in bringing about the present
situation; it has already produced those di
rect effects on general industry which the
shock to confidence might cause. Predic
tion in matters of this sort is always haz
ardous; but crises are not l'kely to come
when they have been expected and are so
prepared for.
The real and serious evil of this lirtt
downward step would be moral rather than
material. I'nhlic confidence would be
shocked; the repute aud prestige would be
rudely shaken. The failure of the govern
went to maintain its standard would de
moralize the public conscience, and set be
fore debtors the spectacle of a failure to
meet obligations to the letter at the place
where we should have the highest exam
ple of honor aud honesty, We may hope,
indeed, that the change, if it should come,
would stir the community to a vigorous de
mand for a new and sounder financial sys
tem, which might obviate once for all a
recurrence of such a spectacle. But such
a break -down would none the less remain
au ineffacable blot on the fair financial
record which we have maintained since
the resumption of specie payments.

THE CITIZEN
Dr. Talmage on the Fair.
Vhen Rev. Dr. Talmage wm in Pitts
burg on Saturday, on his way eastward
from Chica go, he said to a reporter that
the world has never seen anything like the
Columbian Exposition. We quote part of
his conversation: "The World's Fair is a
prodigious wonder. The world has seen
nothing like it. I have visited all the
great fairs and expositions held throughout
the world in recent years, and if all were
put together the collection would not make
a circumstance to the great city in Chica
go-
"l hope that the fair will not only im
prove our material greatness, but that it
shall be a great benefit morally, and I
feel almost sure it wilL Christian unity
is almost perfect in America, and it is one
of the things that the people of the old
world who are now visiting us cannot un
derstand. How the religious denomina
tions dwell together without connection of
any of them with the state is something
that really puzzles them. I remember
this was the subject of a conversation I
had with the Emperor of Russia, in whose
relams the Greek religion is the religion of
the State. The Kmperor could not con
ceive how America existed without the
government taking a hand in religious
matters.
"What the World's Fair needs is the
favorable commendation of the Eastern
newspapers, and this it should have, as
by the success or failure of the fair largely
depends our future greatness. This idea
cannot be dilated upon at too great length.
It i* an institution that the people should
support in a manner commensurate with
our reputation as a nation."
Tone ot the Wool Market.
Prices for wool have fallen within the
past fortnight. Wools of merino blood,
such as fine medium, have dropped from
GOc. per scoured pound to 50c., and appar
ently have not yet touched bottom. A
gradual recedingoi the market has been ex
pected as the period is approached when
legislation at Washington will indicate the
actual change to free wool; the suddenness
of the drop, however, is a surprise. Free
wool in the remote future has been regarded
as inevitable, but no one expected prices
to adjust themsolves to that basis so soon.
The difficulties of running woolen mills
upon protected wool to be made into cloth
which is to be sold in six months or a year
after in competition with cloth made of
"free wool," hare, however, been great
enough to precipitate prices towards the
free wool bases with great suddenness.
The extra session ot Congress to put wool
on the free Mat has not yet assemhled, yet
prices within a few days have taken a tre
mendous stride toward the free wool basis.
Ruyers are yet reluctant to take hold of
wool, cheap as it is, and sellers are pressing
sale under orders*from shippers who are
anxious to realize before values fall still
further. Manufacturers, as a rule, cannot
be induced to buy beyond their needs for
immediate use. They believe that prices
cannot be higher, but are likely to be even
lower. Holding these views, it is difficult
to get them to make offers that can be ac
cepted. "Where offers are obtained they
are mostly on the basis of what the buyer
thinks will be the value of wool, say a
month henco. Sellers on the other hand,
recognize the inevitable movement of prices
toward the free wool basis, and are reluct
antly forced to accept many offers, under
the beliet that what seems almost a sacri
fice to-day is likely to be a better price
than can be reached to-morrow, so that of
fers which are at all above the free trade
level are generally accepted.— Ex.
