FRANCE AND SILVER. Tho newspapers which clamor for Hie free coinage of silver in the United States, curloualy enough, frequently point to France as an exfwrvpk * 1 that lusltfles our government In adopting that policy. “Just let us do as France does,” they say. "and we will be all rlghit. The French halve oimetultifliri. and there la no reason why we should nod hiwie it aUso.’t Now, as a, mutter of fact, there has txx been ia legal tender silver coin turned out by fho (mints of France on private account lit atiout twenty years. The mints at (hat oounlry are just as absolutely closed sgoiiurf stiver as those of fhle United Btaites are now. During the time when ours -were coin ing siiv-r i!>Vrfh* BtuidiAlllson law, nnd l.lter, whkm our treasury was emit ting notes bused on diver under the Sherman law. no auditions -whatever were being made to the volume of the French sliver currency. There were no mints nny where, not even thus of Ger many nnd Engtumd. more nearly her metically closed against Silver than tho ho of France. This Is sXl true. There Is no free coinage of silver ot all, except of minor coins, perhaps, on govoramoirt account, just OS there Is lh llio United Btar.cs. Those references ia French free coinage nre about twenty years out of date. TWare was once free coinage in than country, but it was abandoned far thb very ».ume reason -which now makes free celnago impossible in tho United States. Tho French government saw tbit It could no longer maintain tho free oolnago of silver wttihout per mitting the curronoy of tho country to sink to the silver basis, and rather than permit this, It closed Its mints ngulnst silver. If -will not open them again do that metal unless under an Internal Jonal agreement. For tho men -Who are In favor of In dependent free coinage in this coun try, therefore, to cite 1h« example of Franco la JusttneaHlon of tlielr de mand, Is dishonest. Tho example of Franco Is exadtly apposed to iwihivt they assort or Insinuate 'that it is. Instead of French example Justifying free oolnago«Jt Justllles the closing ot tho mints against silver until an interna tional a&rcomont 1ms been reached ns to ttiho proper ratio of coinage. WrUAfT IS A “FUGITIVE." Some time ago Governor Hogg of Texas iniude a mulls! Han on Governor Flower of New York for too anrest anil extradition of IMr. Johu D. Uockefel- lor of fho Standard OH Company, on Hie grotind that he mis n fugitive from Justice and Hhould bo rottirned to Texas for trial. Governor Flower rehised to honor too reipilsttlon on 'bliu ground Uiat ,Mr. Jlekofrf’.ar bud never lK-on In TasmU therefore could m>t lie a fu gitive from.

(BUSINESS AND CHARITY. Tho proposition to send a train load or two of Southern cam and meat to tho starving peopOo of Nebraska prob ably combines consciously business with charity. During a good many years post toe South has been a buyer nul tho West too seller of corn and meats. The sc-ntiltvg of tho itraln loads lu the opposite dtroatkm would he In tended to emphasize tho taot tout toe .South Is now 'taking care of hcrsolf by raising her own com and meat, and It would not fall to do this saut.on a gr.ut ileal of good if toe people of too North west wore thoroughly apprised of this foot. Tliiose of Nebraska, especially, during too last hwo years, have made almost no crops. Many of them nre in an almost starving condition, not through any fault of toelr own, but be en uso(hey litvo stHtledln a bare prairie region, scorched by an almost Intoler able sun In summer and swept by al most unendurable bhznards tn winter. When Ibrar see too anrivnl among them of 'tbo surplus food sent .town in chari ty from a region where too summers, if long, ore not Intolerably hot, where there ore no blizzards, and where crops are contain, H will too stuango if they do not eiperlonco a desire Jo emigrate to Dixie.
