ance. Lie sets forth the situation plain- ly ina few straightforward sentences. | The act compelling the Government of the United States to buy large amounts of silver bullion from the silver miners and to coin itfor the use of the natiou at a fixed standard is working as was | toreseen by all economists. In spite of inconsistent laws of the most absolute character, adopted to prevent such a consequence, it is emptying the trea sury of gold, and fillibg it full to over- flowing with silver coin which is worth intrinsically only about eighty-five cents on the dollar. If the act is not repealed a financial crisis which will involve commercial disaster cannot long be staved off. Without any ifs or bats Mr. Cleveiand declares it is the duty of Congress ‘o rescue the country from such a calamity, and that it should be done immediately. — a aE Honor to a Canadian.
