An amusing Incident occurred la the Sen nto Friday. A toiniiiunlsatlou from tho Secretary of tlio Treasury was laid before tho Senate by the president pro tern. , and when Its reading was begun, It was dis covered tliatlt was In reply to a resolution adopted In executive, session. When tho words "executive session" wero read, Clilet Clerk (lllfry quickly stopped reading, folded tho document, and returned It to the president protein. Senators looked at eich other In surprise. Mr. Piatt asked If tlio communication was marked "execu tive," and, upon being Informed that It was not, said, "In that ciso It Is for the open session." Mr. Cockrcll took tho eomo .low, sajlng that If It vvtro not marked "confldcntlal"tho open session was entitled to It. The prcldeut pro tern. (Mr. Sherman) asserted very emphatically that the communication was "executive busi ness," and would be submitted to thoSen uto In cxecutlvo session. The chair then placed before tho Senate the resolutions reported from the jtillclary commltteo regarding tho refusal of tho At torney (leucral to furnish pipers called for b the Senate. Mr. Bpooner resumed tho lloor and con tinued his speech In support of tho resolu tions repotted by the malorltv of tho committee. Mr Saulsbiiry said lie was unwilling to content himself with a silent vote on the question before tho Senate. The President bad sought no controversy with the Senate lie had Rcu brought here b) tho Republi can side of this chamber as to a matter that was not within the Jurisdiction of tho St n nto. Mr. Colquitt obtained the floor, but gavo wav for a motion to adjourn. .At 4.20 p. ill. tho Senate adjourned till Slondaj next. A number of bills of a prlvato character were reported to the Houso from commit ties, after which tho House went into com inlttico on tho whole ou the prUato calen dar. At tho evening session tho Houso passed tlilrtj pension bills. 1 bo last bill in bo con sidered was that granting a pension of $12,000 a j car to the widow of (Jen. V. S. Hancock. In the Semite Monday Mr. Logan sub mitted tho following re solution, and inked Hint it might bo printed and Hoover, sajlng he would call It up on some future day and (submit some remarks on it: llfnlutl. That tho sessions of tho Senate com monlj known as executive sessions so farm the) apply to nomination!, confirmations, or rejections, hall ticrcufter bo held with open doors, and that a public record ot tho sumo shall IO kcpt.thcs'imcasoncKtslalivoscsslons. The chair laid before tho Senato Mr. Lo gan's bill to increase the elllcleucy of tho nnny. Mr. I.ogan, at the suggestion ot the Sec retary of Wur, moved for some further amendments of detail to the bill, and they w ere agreed to. Mr. Halo then mocd to strlko out tho eicond section, which provides for a fur ther forco of 30,000 enlisted men lu tho army . Ju referring to tho fisheries question, Mr. I.ogau said : Suppose, some of theso ln is, that Canada should take a notion to make a row about It. I believe thcro Is a fort In tho senator's state. Mr. Hale, l'ort Prible. In Portland har lor. Mr. Logan. Suppose somo BOO or 000 Canadians should run down to Fort Pre ble Mr. Halo. I do not think they would get thero. Mr. Logan. How would you stop them? Mr. Hale. Tho people would stop them. Mr. Logan. lou havo at Fort Preble, I Lcllcvc, thlity-ilvc-mcn. Mr. Hale said It wns not much of acrarrl eon, but tho proposed Increase would not add inatcrlallv to Its strength. Tho Canadians Indicated, however, Mr. Halo paid, would never get as far as Portland whether we had an ann or not, Mr. Logan. Inotbcr words, the people of Maine would "lick" the Canadians before tbev got to Portluud Mr Hale. Yes. Mr Logan. Well, on that theory wo do not w ant any army at all Of course If you arc going to rclj entirely on tho people that is one thing, but If jou aroin favor of having an arm at all jou should bo willing to keep It at least lu pioper form of orgiul nation. Hero the dibato was cut off by limitation of time, and tho chair laid before tho Sen ate the Judlelar committee resolutions. Mr. Colquitt took the lloor lu opposition to the majority nport. If tlieru ever was a qu'ktloii, Mr. Colquitt said, that should 1c sittled, It was the question Involved here It had been settled b) tho constitu tion, and b) tin tire t Congress, mil had ru innluid settled for foil) jeus, and when, thin It wnsquc'tlouul It was again settled, and bad remulncd stilled till thlsdiv. Mr Juil.son followed Mr. Colquitt, also in c ppositlon to the nujorltj report. Ho lielluud the right of remoal ot ofllecrs to levvhollj In the Piesldent, ho far as acts of Congress made removals dependent on the consent of the Senate, those acts wcro an encroachment ou the constitutional rights and powers ot tho President) but, asldo.from that, It was the candid couv lo tion of all real advocates of administrative rcfcjiiu that all such attemnts had been un wise, and had been attended with no sub- ftiiutlul benefits to the public service. At fi o'clock, Mr. Jackson retaining the floor, tho Senate, ou motion of Mr. Harris, went Into exceutlvo session, and when, at fi JO, the doors wero reopened tho Senato adjourned. Several pension bills coming over from last Krld a) night's session, Including that grunting a pension to tho widow of (Jen. Hancock, wcro acted upon. I pon ronclutlon of tho morning busl ines on Thursday, the Senate resumed con Fldcratlon of Senator Logan's bill to pro junto tbu efficiency of tho army.

Mr Heck said ho bad never thought of the smator from Illinois In eonnectlou with tills subject. Ho had not even known that the bill bad been Introduied by Mr Logan Mr l-OL-an did not Intend to lmv it thrown In his faco Unit thiro was anj other Intention In uduieatlng this Increase than to incrcaso tho elllcleucy of tlie army.

AtSo'clock tlio Judlelar) committee reso lutions wcro placed before tho Senate, und Mr Jackson resumed his speech lu opposi tion to tho majority report. Mr Jackson Inquired whether It was In the Hue of tho "calm and orderly adminis tration of government" I cf erred to by Mr. Kdiminils that tho Senato should permit nil f lending nominations to remain unacted on, o let tho acauclcs lu oflico t emalu unlllled, oi d bare the session close, leaving all thoso troublesomo constitutional questions to be raised In the iiccssf Tho papers called for who wholly Irrelevant to tho matter of fill ing the olllco In question Tho power con U nihil for on the either side, that tho sus pended olllelal should icsumo tho functions of tlio ofllco when tho Senato failed to act em the new nomination, was provided for, Mr. Jackson sold, In tho original lenure of ofllco bill, but was specifically struck out la I ho commltteo of conference. It was also true, as n matter of fact, that (len. Orant and other Presidents, In submitting nominations to tho Senate, had used Inter changeably tho words ''removed" and "suspended." Mr. Jackson had examined many such cases, and had found (len. (Irant using the word "removed" wlien, In fact, tho person designated ns "removed" had, technically, been only "suspended." Mr. lMmunds asked whether such cases did not occur during the session ot tho Senate. Mr. Jackson Inferred that they did, but was not sure. Mr. IMinunds thought they did. Ho said that President Haves had been called on to explain whether (hat form of nomination (vlccor "removed" person when, Infact, the person had been suspended) meant a "removal" or not, and President llajcs had replied that It did not Imply anything of the CTud, but only meant that tho person wns rcmovid If tho Senato should consent to tho removal. That fact, Mr. IMinunds said, could be found on tho Journals of tho Senate. Mr. Jackson, In concluding his remarks, said i 1 tee nothing In this but an attempt to en croach ou tho functions and rights of tlio Kx ccutlvc, nnd of titistruc ling him and his ad ministration In their cilorls At reform. No President lor the pnst half ccutur) has ever acted with nioro moderation, none with moro conscientious regard for tho public interests, nniljctat tho very outset or his administra tion ho Is to be obstructed In this way on grounds wholly unwarranted Ho may well appeal from this Sonnlo to tho country, for tho coiiiitr will sustain him In his action. Mr. (Icorge followed, also lu opposition to the mojorltj report. In tho morning hour Mr. Iilchardson, of Tennessee, on behplf of tho committee on War claims, called up and the Houso passed tho Fourth of July claims bill. Tho pro visions of this bill wcro published In tho Nvtionvl ltr.i'imicvN of tho 20th In stant. '1 ho amount Involved hi tho bill Is $23,'JC0 1 The House then went Into committee of the whole (Mr. McMillan, of Tennessee, lu the chair) on tho Indian appropriation bill. A point of order was pending; against tho clatife appropriating $1,000 for aunual al lowance to Capt. It. II. Pratt whllo In charge of the Carlisle Indian school. Tho discussion which ensued, though confined to tho technicalities of the rules, which do not glvo much scopo to eloquence, was conducted In an earnest and, at times, ex cited and noisy manner foi moro than an hour and a half. The issue was whether tho clausowasln order by reason of similar clauses contained lu previous appropriation bills, thoutrh not being authorized by statute law. Tho point of order was sustained by tho com mlttec 93 to OS aud the clause was struck out. Mr. Nelson pursued his announced In tention by raising n point of order against tho uppropiiatlous for the Salem (Oregon) Indian school. Vending a decision tho commltteo rose. Mr. Humes, of Missouri, submitted tho conference repoit on the urgent deficiency bill, and It was agreed to. Whllo this was being done Mr. Wellborn, of Texas! Mr. Pcrkfiis, of Kansas, aud others surrounded Mr. Nelson and ap pealed to him to depart from his policy In regard to the Indian bill, but ho was ob durate, aud at 4:45 the Houso adjourned. Debate upon (Jen. Logan's bill to In creaso tho eillclency of tho army was con tinued In tho Senato during the morning hour Wednesday. Mr. Teller opposed tho Incrcaso of Uio army, and advocated the taking of a num ber of Indian children from hostllo tribes, placing them in industrial schools, and, thereafter, ho claimed, Indian wars would cease. The children would constitute hos tages for the good conduct of tho parents. The hour of 2 o'clock arriving, tho army bill went over, and tho resolutions reported from tho Judiciary committee wero placed before the Senato. Mr. Morgan addressed tho Senato In op position to tho majority report. Ho en tered upon an exhaustive aualsls of the question, not only as It affected tho Im mediate case under consideration, but tho mutual relations, generally, of tho l.xecu the and the Senate. Mr. Morgan discussed nt somo length tho question of tho constitu tional limitations on tho President's pow crs, to 6how that they did not alTect bis power of removal, and that his discretion In that respect was absolute. Mr. Voorhccsobtalucd tho lloor, but gavo way foe a motion to adjourn. Ho will bo tho first to speak on tho resolutions to-day, and will bo followed by Mr. Uvarts. Tho Senato then, at 0.50 p.m., adjourned. After the morning hour Wcducsduy tho Houso went Into commltteo ot tho whole (Mr. McMlllln, of Tennessee, In tho chair) ou tho Indian aopronrlatlou bill. The subject ot Indlau education was dis cussed by Messrs. Peel, Cutcheou, Holmaii, Storm, O'Neill, and Cannon, after which tho committee roso aud the bill was passed jeas220, tiojsii. The House Immediately went Into com mltteo of tho whole (All. Hammond, of Georgia, In the chair) ou tho postoflleo up cropilatlon bill. Mr. Illount, of Ocoigla, chairman ot tho commltteo on postolllces and postroids, briefly explained the provisions of the bill. It appropriated, ho said, if.'il.DJoVW, us against mi estimate of $.V,NS,loi), and au appropriation of i5V00,9J0 for tho current j cur. Mr. llurrows, of Michigan, criticised several items In tho bill, Includlug tho In adequate pay of railway postal clerks. Another tustanco wherein tho law was per fietlj plain was that In relation to trans portation of foreign malfc, ct for tho pur ioso ot making that law a nullity tho Postmaster General had found no dlflleulty In looking beyond tho law aud outside of It for a reason on which ho could base his refusal to execute It. At the proper time Mr. llurrows will move to amend this bill so as to mako tho appropriation equal to the full amount of the sea nud inland post age, und only regretted that uudcr tho rules of tho House ho could not do more. It was tho business of tho Postmaster Gen era, when Congress had determined to let the service to tho lowest bidder, to mako an ciTort to cxeeuto tho law, Instead of sitting down and declining to mako tho sllchtest moo toward its execution, Mr. llurrows quoted from tho Democratic plat forms from lb?J to 1VH tho civil service plank, and ended by a citation froui Mr. Cleveland's letter of acceptance, in which he laid dow n tho doctrine tliat tho selection and retention of subordinates In govern ment employ should depend on their as certained fitness for tho work. Tho people wero slekcued with this boast of the Dunocratlc party. It had ceased to draw, and it would bo . better to ring down tho curtain and put out tho lights, If tho Democratic party wished to savo the performance and tho performers from public ildlcule and contempt. Let It bo tiikcn from the boards, or It would 1)8 hissed off by n disgusted public. This Democratic rrorm administration woull havo to answer for its falsification of citi zens at the bur ot public opinion, where it would receive a swift and merited condem nation Applause uu ltepuhllcan side 1 'J he coiniiilttio then lose, ami tho Houso, at ' 15, adjourned. The announcement that Messrs F.varts and oorhics were to deliver speeches upon the subject of tho Judiciary commit, tie's resolution touching the relations bo twicn the 'cnate and tho oxccutlvo depart ments drew u largu audli lieu to the Senate guiienes inursuay, una u numuer ot mem 1 crs of the I louse absented themselv es from their own hall (where a political dobato was In progress) lu order to bo present In tho Semite e hamber and to listen to tho ur guniiuts of the senators from Indium aud Jvtvv York Ml. nuihccs took tho lloor In opposi tion to the majority rctiort After stating tho question nt Issue, Mr Voorhces nskcil why tho majority resolutions contented Iheiiiselveswith nil attach ou tho agent (tho Attorney (lencrul) and shrank from a di rect blow on tho principal (tho President ) Did tho senator from ermont expect a f nbiuet ofllccr to disobey tho President? 'I ho icsolutlous were meant for popular effect. 'I hey contemplated no measiiro of legislation to rimovo any evil or pretended evil. They wcro merely a fulmiiiatlon of senatorial opinion, barren of lesult, other limn a cheap partisan denunciation. True, (hire was a threat that It tho papers sought wcro withheld nominations would not ho confirmed. A moro illogical and ridiculous sequence could not bo conceived. It tho Attorney General was guilty as charged, of "conduct subversive ot tho fundamental principles ot tho government and tho good administration thereof," then ho should bo Impeached lu tho manner provided by tlio constitution, That was a matter fur tho Houso of llcprcscntatlvcs to proposo The resolutions now beforo tho Senato consti tuted a trivial nud Inconsequential measiiro compared to tho sturdy and straightfor ward remedy provided by tho constitution for the punishment ot a public olllelal will fully recreant or disobedient to law. Theso rcsolutloiia wcro simply Intended to keep llepubllcans In ofllce. Thcro was nothing moro certain, however, than that tho people understood tho object. Mr. Voorhces heartily Indorsed Mr. Cleve land's action lu making removals, so far as action bad been had, and ho would heartily Indorse tho President's notion In tho snmo direction If it went n thousand leagues farther. Mr. Fvarts addressed the Senato In sup port of the majority report. Tho resolu tion, ho said, declared that tho demand madobytho Judiciary commltteo on tho Attorney General for papers should, under tho circumstances, havo been compiled with, and that neither his duty nor tho In struction of tho President Justified him In his refusal to comply with tho dciiiutid. Mr. F.varts read from tho report ot the minority of the Judiciary commltteo to show that tho minority conceded that olll elal papers on tho flics of tlio departments relating to subjects within tho Jurisdiction of tho Houso of ltcprcscntatlvcs and tho Senato wero subject to tho call ot cither house of Congress. On this admission, ho said, It seemed to him there should bo but little doubt as to tho oto on the resolutions bcfoio tho Senate. Mr. Call followed In opposition to tho majority icport. Mr. I-varts's speech, ho said, bad placed his subject upon a now and different ground. That was that wo should iniusurc tho constitutional duties ot tho Senate by the propositions which tho Vrisldcnt might mako In regard to the sub ject, llurnitt was not to bo confirmed be cause Duskln's removal liiil been plarcd upon Improper grounds. Mr. Call Impllel that Mr Kv in Is was not consistent lu his statements ns to tho constitutionality ot the tenure of ofllco net, ami read from tho proceedings of tho Impeachment trial lu support of his view, Mr. lngalls then obtained tho floor, but gavo way for a motion to go Into executive session. After the morning hour the Houso wont Into committee ot tlio whole ou the post oflleo appropriation bill. Mr, DocKcry, of Missouri, reviewed the legislative history of tho foreign mall ser vico of tho l'ostotllco Department from 18n down to tho present time. Ho quoted Mr. Peters, of Kansas, laid the responsi bility for tho present condition of tho mer chant marine upon tho shoulders of tho Democratic party, and then rnido a strong oppcal to tho commltteo to do an act of Justlco to tho railway postal clerks by glv i li lt them tho full salary allowed by law. Messrs. Millard, of New York, nud Gucnlhcr, of Wisconsin, criticised tho bill and tho present administration, and Messrs. Illpgs, of Illinois, and Wakefield, of Min nesota, supported tho bill lu toto. The commltteo then rose, and tho Houso (at 5:10) took a recess to 7.30 o'clock. r.vnM.NO session-. The evening session of tho House was de voted to tho consideration of resolutions expressive of tho sorrow of that body at tho death of Joseph Itankln, lato a rcprc smtatlvo from tho stato of Wisconsin. Fuloglstlo addresses wero delivered bv Messrs. Henderson, of Iowa; Hragir, Hudcf, Gucnthcr, Thomas, and La Follctto. of Wisconsin; Henderson, of Illinois, May bury, ot Michigan, and Johnson, of Now York. Tho resolutions wcro then unanimously adopted, and as a mark of respect to tho memory of the deceased the House, at 9.30, adjourned.

Wo havo not hard times, such as a visitation of famlno or of pcstllcnco to declmato tho people, but something as bad. With wealth and plenty In tho land ot food, raiment, aud money, all being abun dant, y ct thcro is a pall hanging ov cr us. The most enterprising and Industrious of tho great producing classes tho farmer, manufacturer, aud mechanic complain that they aro not getting tho rewards they aro Justly entitled to. Surely there is somo reason for tho com plaint, for It Is general, aud it Is not con fined to our own country, but provokes Europo aud the wholo commercial world, and whatever the cause, It Is evident that It affects other countries besides our own. That moucy Is ubunduut la shown by tho fact that lutcrest Is low. In this country the volume of currency is not only larger than ever before, but It Is exceptionally good. Not u question arises as to tho value of any of It. Who over beforo saw such a stagnant condition of trado under such conditions ns now exist V Instead of stagnation, thcro ought to bo boundless activity In tho marts of trade, and such a development of active energetic life as tho world has never beforo seen. Thcro Is moro physlcul power, moro national wealth, u grander development and control of tho hidden forces ot uaturo than was dreamed of in any former epoch, aud yet they stand as It bound by u hidden hand No iri eat wars to employ this en ergy In ;ilfc dutruylng, hero-making activ ity, that has so often lu tho history of our race engaged It In overturning anil destroy ing and then rebuilding nud restoring. Happy in this would the people ho If that energy could bo directed Into channels that will benefit themselves nud posterity. More canals and substantial bridges and public buildings to mark, for centuries to come, tho power nud wealth and tasto of a people who have surpassed all who pre ceded them In true gicatucss aud accom plishments. Hut tho forces arc chained, tho energies bound. Golden chains aud goldeu hands. Not tho less urksomo, cone tho less galling becauso they aro gold. L'nthrull them. Compare the condition of our country to-day with Its mines ot gold aud silver, mid of tho less valuable minerals with Its vast accumulation of coin and bullion after paying ball ot tho great war debt aud its Interest, aggregating moro than tho pay ments on tho principal, with tho young giant after tho war closed. Now, aggregating 00,000,000 of pcoplo united, strong, and wealthy, but embar rassed and bound. Then, burdened with a vast debt, u paper currency, which many believed never would bo redeemed; no mo talllc money, one-halt of thc.'coun try wasted by wnr and without civil government. Hope and energy had full play then, aud witness tho work that was done. With tho pay uicnt of ?1,600,000,000 of In terest aud $1,400,000,000 of principal on tho debt since that tlme.lt Is estimated tint now, whllo In tho bonds of go'd,ltwlIl talto moro of any of our great staphs, w heat, cotton, or Iron, to pay that unpaid balance of tho dibt thau It would to havo paid tho wholo lu IMh1;.

'1 his was Mr. Herog, ot Switzerland. 'iho English representatives condemned his proposition, and ut tho same tltuo Mr. Goschcn. of England, declared that tho universal adoption of tho gold standard might bo a causo of tho greatest disasters. Tho "monetary commission" appointed by Congress In 1870 declared as follows 1 "That as Germany nud tho Scandinavian states hnvondoptcd tho slnglo gold standard, and that somo other European nations may adopt It, Instead of being reasons for per severing In tho attempt to establish It In tho I nittd States, aro precisely tho facts which wake such an attempt Impracticable arid ruinous." Why Is It that England Is so firmly wedded to tho slnclo gold standard? She Is a great creditor nation, aud her annual Incomo from foreign debtors Is said to bo $250,000,000. Tho profits on her foreign trado aro vastly more. As ttxod Incomes aro modo moro valuablo by doar money, observe how vast Is tho advantage sho pos sesses In tho Inflow of cheap commodities, cheap becauso gold buys so much more. Her farmers nro being bankrupted and her manufacturing supremacy threatened In tho grinding competition of other na tions, and to tho havoc caused by this mis taken policy sho Is to ho n great BUffercr. Tho blnietullsts claim that silver has not declined, hut gold his advanced. That silver Is more staple than gold as a mcasuro of values. They claim that It has changed less In value, as measured by commodities, than gold. That nature Intended tho two metals for moncr, aud that each is pre-eminently united by their qualities and prcclousncss for tho purpose, and that together they aro better than cither 0110 alone. In this they aro supported by Ilia collec tive Judgment ot tho world. They bellovo that this great country should lu this, ns It has In many other di rections, cut clear from tho leading strings of Europe, aud broaden tho foundations of her own greatness. How to do It Is a question that n few practical Americans can better solve than all the "doctrinaires" ut Europo. l'rco colnngo should bo accomplished In such a manner as not to enrich a few at tho ox penso of many. It may appear Invidious for tlio govern ment to buy bullion at a large discount and coin It Into legal tender money. It would bo worso to buy It of n few favored holders. That no favoritism bo shown a simple requirement that nono but American silver bullion, assayed and weighed at tho mint, should bo coined That tho pcrccutago of all offerings re quired for coinage should bo taken from each deposit at somo moderate advance fiom the open market price Bay In Lon don. All not taken by government to bo subject to Its owner's orders. 'Iho pcoplo will bo well content to use only a portion, If they know It Is whero they can get It, nnd that It Is a safeguard against panics whllo It is stored sifcly. Its price will speedily odvanco to Its nor mal place, which Is by no means Its present dishonored position In relation to gold. Ilctwcenlho years 1521, tho year ot tho Spanish conquest of Mexico, nnd 1875, sll Acr ncVcr stood lower In tho ratio to gold than 15.95 to j, and the hlchcst In that long period was 11.10 to 1. This Is according to tho tables ot Prof. Adolpli Sootbler Aud, according to tho best "authorities, from tho year 400 II. C. to tho year 400 A. D. tho ratio varied little from 11 to land 12 to 1; and from A. D. 400 to A. D. 1500 It was about 12 to 1. Theso figures aro taken from Mr. Earnest I.oyd's "Dccllno of Prosperity." Tho present ratio Is 10 to 1, both being at par. In reality, 10 33 to 1. Hero Is tho causo of all tho troublo among tho nations. When the world Is ntpcaco and plenty Is every where, this, llkoau evil genius, which it Is, and of man's own dovls lug. balifully affects tho Industrial world to-day. Seemingly it gives a great advantago to fixed incomes and to tho salaried class; but this Is not so really, for society Is so Inter woven In Its relations that ono class cannot suffer great Ills without all being more or It ss affected. Even England Is believed to bo losing moro than sho Is gaining by this policy, which Is making tho rich richer aud the poor poorer In all her borders. Wo need tho rcvlvlfvlng Influcnco that bimetallic currency will bring to all the hearts of trade and to overy workshop lu tho land. It Is not so much an Incrcaso ot currency as a chango from the present false standard which tho adoption of tho bimetallic sy stem will glvo to general values. As tho world was never beforo so rich ns it fs now, so never beforo was thcro so largo a consumption of gold In tho arts, and this when Its production Is gradually de clining. The accrcttou ot wealth being greatest In thoso nations adhering to tho slnclo gold standard, and tho commerce of tho world being largely In their control (for our own country now, though by law bimetallic Is In practice tho other way), It follows that the purchasing power of gold will Increase, and tho evils ot tho present abnoimal relation between silver and gold will bo liicrcasid, and tho dlflleulty of res toration to normal relations be also In creased. Who does not hcllevo that but for the passage of our coinage act ot 1878 that sll v er w ould havo been found evcu lower than now, or, as blmetalllsts rightfully mako tho comparison, gold would havo advanced?
