Silver Monometaliam.
In his argument lor sound money, made
in the Rei asentatives' hall at Harrisburg
lately, Mr. Charles Emory Smith reudered
a substantial service to the country. is
speech was a forcible statement of the e
pnblican position as repeatedly set forth
by National Conventions of the party, and
it was at the same time an eloquent and
convincing demonstration of the soundness
of that position. Probably one of its im
mediate good effects will be the aban
donment of the attempt to secure from our
Legislature an indorsement of Senator
Cameron's unsound views concerning free
coinage; and if is circulated as widtly as it
should be, it must do much to counteract
in all parts of the country the specious ar
guments of the Bilver producers and their
advocates, who are in fact intent on reduc
ing our currenoy to the cheap silver basis.
Mr. Smith devoted considerable space
to the proof of the proposition that free
coinage means in fact the silver standard,
—not bimetallism with a parity of value
between gold and silver, but silyer mono
metallism No man of average sense can
expect gold to circulate under a law pro-
Tiding tor the unlimited free coinage of
fifty-cent silver dollars. In that event the
more valuable coin will be locked up or
exported. The common, selfish instinct
of all men and the laws of trade attested
by universal experience would render this
result as certain as the operation ot the
law of gravitation. All Americans who
remember the last war know that when
the Government was unable to redeem its
paper promise to pay a dollar, gold in
stantly went to a premium and disappear
ed from circulation. The "fiat' of tbe
Government, with the pledged faith of the
Nation behind it, was then unable to
to make even our own loyal citizens be
lieve that a paper promise not presently
redeemable was as good as a gold dollar.
But the free-coinage advooates have now
started out to make us all believe that the
mere "fiat" of tbe Government, backed by
no pledge at all, will make fifty cents in
silver worth a gold dollar in the open mar
ket! The task is manifestly impossible,
and. as Mr. Smith says, when that day
comes the country must drop to the silver
standard.
It is of the highest importance, then*
for men who propose to help along that
time to determine what the silver standard
means. What will be the practical effect
of placing the country on a silver basisT
Mr. Smith very plainly points out some of
the effects of such a plunge to the silver
level. He calls attention to the fact tnat
the deposits in the savings banks of the
country amount to more than 1,747 million
dollars, belonging to nearly five million
depositors. Ttis industrial army of de
positors have thus placed in these banks
an average of $365 each, every dollar so
deposited being worth 100 cents in gold.
But after we drop to the silver standard
each depositor will be able to draw ont of
the bank but $363 in silver, each worth
bat 50 cents. In other words, the frugal
toilers of the country are to have their
savings scaled down one-half by a law
that will benefit nobody but the producers
of silver bullion and the speculators. This
Sttte has 248,244 such depositors with ag
gregate deposits of $66,023,821, so that the
Pennsylvania workmen's direct contribu
tion to tbe cause of free silver coinage
would amount to some 33 million dollars,
to say nothing of the shrinkage of tbe as
sets of the 1,239 building and loan associ
ations in the State.
Contemplate another object lesson: The
aggregate disbursements for pensions last
year were, in.round numbers, $140,772,000,
or an average of $144 to every pensioner
The namher of pensioners in this State
was 103,523. The payments now made to (
these Union veterans or their widows and
orphan ohildren are practically gold dollars
worth 100 cents each. When we roach the
silver producers' paradise, the payments
will necessarily be made on a silver basis
in dollars worth 50 cents each, so that
each pensioner will receive 72 real dollar* .
instead of 144. This will be the veteran's ,
contribution to the glorious cause of clip
ped coinage, and all for the SAke of the j
silver producers, the bullion speculators j ,
and th» eheap demagogues. I,
These are a few of the object lessons to t
which ilr. Smith calls attention as ill us- (
trations of the effeots of the unlim ted
coinage ol cheap silver dollars. He adds
others that are quite as impressive; but
there is another picture that must interest
all the toilers in the land. Every man who
works for wages is paid to-day the best ,
money the world knows a currency
every dollar of which is literally as good
as gold, and which will buy more of the
necessaries and comforts of life than ever
before *n the history of the world. Does
this dollar of the workman buy too muchf
The silver men and their advocates think
it does, and they propose 'berefore to pay
the workers of this country a currency
worth about half as much as that they now
receive. And to bring this about they
have the impudence to appeal to the work
ing mm himself to he'p aloug by his own
vote the scheme to out down the pay for
bis own labor to the tuue of 50 per cunt i;i
the hope tnat somehow in the coining era
of dear commodities and chesp money he
may be able to get it raised again! Tlie
workers of the country are in fact the
great creditor class of the country, and to
tbem it is of the first importance that
wages shall l»e paid in a currency that is
most staliie and that possesses the highest
possible purchasing power. They are the
very ones who can least afford to tamper
with the currency. It is to them that
cheap money—which simply means dear
commodities—must prove most damaging,
and if they can be bamboozled into the
support of Hl lver monometallism the fact
will be most astonishing.— Agitator.

A Grave Charge.
The Philadelphia Time» draws a dark
picture of the administration of justice in
the courts of that city. It charges that
they" are rapidly approaching a condi
tion that must make property entirely
voiceless and helpless when its interests
are involved in the courts. This accusa
tion ban no dou K t been inspired by the
experience wnich Col. McClure, the vet
eran editor, recently had in a libel unit,
from which his counsel withdrew in dis
gust and which terminated in the jury
finding a very heavy verdict against him.
He does not blame the judges, but asserts
that the abuse? have grown up gradually
until they have become appalling "by
grotesquely excessive verdicts against
property."
"A deliberate conspiracy within the
very temple of justice to pollute its sanc
tuary and make prey upon property in con
tempt of justice," is the grave charge
which Col. McClure has These
conspirators have power to "inspire suits
without merit, to conduct them by testi
mony furnished by procurers, and to con
t r o) the jurors who are to give verdicts,
until it has become even mightier than
jastice itself because of the tolerance that
has been given to it." Some of the ele
merits ot this combination against justice
are thus described: "The conspiracy em
braces petty court officials, lawyers with
all the arts of the shyster added to mingled
ability and arrogance, political leaders who
have to look carefully to the safety of
their criminal henchmen, and procurers
of testimony who have become practically
professional in their criminal art, and
these combined have been plying their
vocation until property has largely ceased
to have either respect or protection in the
administration of justice in Philadelphia.
This is a terrible arraignment ot the
judicial system as conducted in the cbiet
city ol the commonwealth, and if the in
dictment can be sustained in its material
averments there is need for sweeping and
radical reform. The jnry system is held
to be largely responsible, the result of
political and official favoritism in the se
lection of jurors, who sympathize with ihe
conspiracy to prey upon propertj. The
abuse of respectable witnesses has jecome
so common that no one who val'ies his
reputation cares to take the stand. It is
charged that no leading criminal can be
convicted of any political offense, owing
to the control which is exercised ov?r the
machinery of justice. Wuen astoanding
verdicts are rendered the money does not
inure to the benefit of the plaintiff. The
suits are instituted chiefly for the benefit
of the counsel and thoßd associated with
them in furnishing testimony, jury fixing
and like services.
If a tithe of what ia here charged be true
then, in the language of the late Mr. Tildon
"reform in necessary " The public will
be loth to believe that the eoarU are so
permeated with corruption and maladn.in
istratiou. Nearly the entire press of that
city has been advocating the pensioning ol
judges in recognition of their fidelity and
integrity, but this sweeping accusation
represents them as fit only for the pillory.
—Commercial Gazette.
The Judges' Pension Bill.
The bill to pension judges after they
hare reached a certain age has passed the
House and is expected to pass the Senate.
The Commercial Gazette has opposed this
measure, not alo-.o on constitutional
grounds, but as settiug a very bad prece
dent and one which is certain to be follow
ed, should tie bill become a law. That
the people aro not deman liug this innova
tion is apparent to all. An attempt was
made to engrail a similar provisiou in the
present Coustinntiou, but it was voted
down iu the convention by a decided ma
jority. The people are no more favorable
to a pension system to-day than they were
twenty years ago, and it lias been alleged
that the present bill is being urged by pol
iticians who have no higher motive than
the retirement of a few judges who are not
pliable enough to suit their purposes.
They want younger men of their own se
lection.
I Whether there is any truth in this charge
is not very material. The principle upon
which the law is based is wholly vicious
and foreign to oar political policy. It is
altogether unnecessary, too. since it is pre
posterous to aßsert that most of the char
acter and habits of the Pennsylvania
judiciary, who have served for twenty
years or more upon the bench at salaries
ranging trom $5,000 to SB,OOO are likely
to become objects of charity. But even if
they should be unfortunate, it would not
justify the establishing of a class system
by which men are to be paid out of the
public treasury for periods during which
they render no service.
A reference to the debates in the last
constitutional convention should have
served to enlighten the legislature on this
subject. Some very able and patriotic
members were heard in opposition to the
pension system. It was on motion of the
Hon. Lin Bartholomew that the provision
was stricken from the report of the Com
mittee on Judiciary. He characterized it
as 'the introduction of a principle of com
pensation for officials of this government
thai was an exceedingly dangerous one."
He knew no icason why the services of a
judge should have a higher or more enlarg
ed conr-ideration thau ihose of any other
officer who faithfully di.-charged his duties
and predicted that if the principle was
once incorporated in the practical opera
tion of the government it would not cease
with the judges. If adopted at all the
principle should be applicable to all offi
cials alike.
Ex-Governor Curtiu was one of tbe most
outspoken opponents of the pension sys
tem. He saiJ: "It is contrary to all our
settled policy, to our history and to our
tradition* to pension any man except one
who has been in the military service in de
fense of the country." He favored liberal
compensation to the judges, but was oppos
ed to the pensioning of officers in the civil
service.
Mr. Darlington, who had been a mem
ber of the constitutional convention of
1847-8, said: "A civil pension system is
against the g»Miu* of our inlituiions U
has never been cou»ilerod by tbe people
of I'oiiusy lva'iit as at all admissible, tor
the reason in part that no man is bound
to accept ofliue, and therefore there is no
propriety iu adding, afur a man ceases to
perforin the sen ice, inj tiling by way ot
remuneration for that which he is not able
t.o perform. 1 oppose a pension a", to
every officer in ine government save only
tho man who has periled his life upon the
battlefield.
This is sound doctrine, and if the bill
pas-es the Senate it should bo vetoed by
the Governor. It is wr.mg in principle,
an innovation that will lead to a civil pen
sion list, and is against the letter and spir
it of the Constitution —Com. Gazette.
Where the Real Trouble Lies.
Among the bills pending at ITarrisburg
is one to amend tbe Constitution and abol
ish tbe February elections The bill pur
poses to transfer tbe election of municipal
officers to tbe general election in Novem
ber, and is urged on the plea that so many
•lections tend to disturb business sud the
conduct of public sff'iirs.
,'iThi re is not much in this plea. The
r >al puipose is to check the tendency ol
the voters in cities to disregard party lines
at the February elections, a tendency tha'
1 should bo encouraged instead of killed
i At the November elections local issues are
! slwajs over-shadowed by great party prii -
| cities tuti tlie »hrewd political waua^ws
want the benefit of partisan sentiment at
such times to cover the defects of their
candidates.
When the managing politicians took the
principle out of the Australian ballot by
amending the law, first for group markings
and later by the "straight ticket ring at
the top of the column, they were probably
looking forward to this amendment to the
Constitution. Of course, in putting the
ring on the ballot they had the immediaie
object of making fraudulent marking ea.-y.
But by getting the election of municipal
officers at the same time that State and
national offices are filled they will have
the double advantage of "straight" party
votes and the ticket that cau be most easi
ly manipulated.
The country may be suffering somewhat
from the frequency of elections, but it is
suffering more from the chicanery of the
politicians.—Pittshurg Dispatch.
Harrisburg Notes.
On Thursday the Compulsory Education
bill passed third reading in the Senate
and in the House the bill to repeal the
Oleo law was defeated.. Other bills
which passed second reading that day were
as follows: To punish false representa
tions to assessors and collectors of taxes;
providing for the examination ot miners
in the bituminous regions and prevent the
employment of incompetent persons; to
empower cities aud boroughs to appoint
inspectors of food, cattle aud slaughter
houses; making 60 pounds a bushel of clov
er seed. On Friday, in the House, four,
teen special orders were granted, includ
ing one secured by Mr. Douthett for his
school book bill.
Secretary Edge, of the Department of
Agriculture, has formed an efficient corps
of crop and live stock reporters and the
old list has been remodeled and increased.
Eacb member of the Legislature has been
asked to furnish the department with the
names and post office addresses of two
practical and wide awake farmers to whom
tbe regular crop blanks can be sent and by
whom they can be filled up in a practical
and satisfactory manner.
He has also obtained the address of at least
one practical dairyman and one stock feed
er and breeder in eacb county, and as soon
as the Department has been fully organiz
ed, will by the systematic use of blank 6
aud the tabulated reports, obtain a large
mass of practical information lrom ail por
tions ot tbe State. In the earlier hbtoi}
of the Board this plan was adopted and
was only abandoned on account of the
increased duties placed upon the secretary
by the Legislature and it will, now that
the Department is furnished with ample
clerical force, be revived and extended in
connection with similar reports by the
National Department at Washington.
Monday night tlie following bills passed
the House finally: To require j.idges in
counties haviug 35,000 inhabitant' and
over in appointiog prison commissioners
to recognize both political parties; to quiet
state clai ns of the commonwealth against
counties, cities and boroughs aud officers
and ex officers thereof, withiu whoso term
of office the claim may have accrued where
no fraud appears; for protection of nesis
and eggs of gauie birds; for protection of
speckled trout; defining lawful seals on
deed* and other inj-trummts of writing.
A story was circulated about the capitol
that the real purpose of Senator (Quay's
visit was to try to get an expression from
the legislature on the currency question.
Oue of the best informed Republic in politi
cians in the state said Senator Cameron
has won his col.eague over for a free coin
age of silver and that Quay will endeavor
to get a resolution through the legislature
indorsing Cameron's views and speeches
on the question. The same person said
Quay was not playing the free silver game
as strong as Cameron, but it would tend to
be a question of time when he would come
out openly for free coinage of silver.
Judging from the frigid reception of
Charles ileber Clark of Philadelphia when
in ilarrisburg, two weeks aeo, to advocate
Cameron's theory, it is thought the Wo
senators will not have an oa*y task be
fore them to get through a free silver
lution.
On Tuesday Douthelt's bill to establish
a school book board and provide for the
sale of text books to school boards at the
lowest prices passed second reading by a
large majority.
Oa Wednesday the three Greater Pilt-t
--bnrg bills passed by a vote of 144 to 42.
The amendments will probably be con
curred in by the Senate, next Tuesday;
and then the bills will be ready for the
Governor. The first bill gives the city
the right to vote in the boroughs; the soc
ond bill gives Allegheny a chance to vote
herself in; and the third bill relates to the
determination of the indebtedness of the
boroughs voted in. The voting is to take
place ia Nov. 96.

Gentlemen's Fine Footwear.
There is no article which enters into ladies' or gentlemens' dress
that should be selected with so great care as a shoe. No other part
of one's dress is noticed so quickly, and so universally admired or
condemned, as the case may be.
A shoe to be thoroughly satisfactory must, first of all, fit well, and
secondly, must wear well and keep its shape; these points are the
most prominent ones in Ruff's Fine Shoes. RufiPs shoes are made
by firms whose lasts and patterns are as near perfect as skill and ex
perience can make them, and all the materials used are selected with
such great care and the workmanship inspected so closely that the
wear of Ruff's shoes is assured. Ladies and gentleman, it will be to
our mutual advantage if you will favor us to the extent of inspecting
our goods.
