Tub movement to chango the Schuylkill Traction Company's tracks from Coal street to Centre stroet should be encouraged, thus obviating much of the dissatisfaction that now exists as to the condition of the former thoroughfare. Thk 3rd NtbrtiBka Regiment is now clamoring to be sent to the Philip pines. The attitude of the successor of Col. William Jennings Bryan is in quite obvious contrast to the fighting proclivities of the silver orator dur ing his brief career in the volunteer service. Thk praise which Archbishop Ire land is receiving in Europe for his eulogy of Joan of Arc is not the first given him for a treatment of the same subject. The first prize of the many ha captured during his school boy days was for a paper on the Maid of Orleans. According to report the Spanish clergy in Cuba and Porto Rioo bitterly criticise the American author ities for introducing in the island the idea that marriage is a civil con tract, and are still more indignant because the new laws recognize the possibility of divorce. Thk German-American who has just got himsejf into prison in Ger many for applying an offensive epithet in that country to the Kaiser will hardly arouse much sympathy in the United States. This person ought to have known, and doubtless did know, that no such liberty to abuse the head of the state is allowed in Germany aa there is in this country. Thk Presbyterian Church of the United States Is to be congratulated on the announcement made by the Moderator that with the exception of the Freedmen's Board, all the boards of the church have closed the church year without any indebtedness. The return of prosperity to the country has evidently had its effect upon the financial condition of the church. Only a. few years ago, almost if not all of its boards were struggling with a debt which was hampering it in its work. Jons O. Ulbich, Esq., brought to the con vention a big batch of pamphlets containing a synopsis of the speeches mado by him through out New York State in 1806 In behalf of 'William Jennings Bryan and the Chicago plat form. The pamphlets were eagerly devoured by the members of the cpmmittee. Chronicle The manner in which the members of the Democratic Standing Commit tee "devoured" the pamphlets is not made clear; by our contemporary. It is Inferred, however, that the masti cating process occurred previous to the rejection on the part of the com mittee of Mr. Ulrich's resolutions en dorsing Bryan and the Chicago plat form. We would suggest that the doses be reduced hereafter. Currency Reform. It is understood that the House Republican Caucus Committee, ap pointed to frame a scheme of currency reform, has agreed upon a measure along the following lines : The redemption of all obligations of the government in gold on de mand.. . Greenbacks, when once redeemed tor gold, to be reissued only for gold. Permitting national banks- to issue notes of the par value of their gov ernment bonds deposited in the Treasury, instead of ninety per cent., as at present. Permitting the minimum capital of national banks to be twenty-dye thousand dollars, instead of fifty thousand dollars, as at present. This plan is much less comprehen sive than ardent advocates of general currency revision have urged, but was adopted because harmonious agreements on it was possible which was not the case when more radical meABUres were suggested.
