The Indicted Democrats.

Mr.. Joseph Redmond, the Chairman of the
City Democratic Executive committee, was
last night called on to resign by vote of the
committee, for the very inadequate reason
that he has been indicted by the Crane Jury
for embeZzlement of the money of the Water
Works. Such rule, if carried out, will cause
the Democratic party to shrink. 1t is worse
than 'sumptuary laws Shall man in this
free hemisphere be driven from the chairman
ship of Democratic committee for simply
exercising the Democratic right of embezzle-
ment? & much higher Democrat than Mr..
Joseph Redmond, who held at the same time
the Office of Trustee of the Water Works
and Mayor of the city, and still holds the lat
ter, escaped indictment for the same offense
by only one vote Shall he be called on by
Democratic committees to resign his office?
We doubt if Mr.. Redmond will serve as a
scapegoat for the debasement the Democratic
party have brought into the Water Works,
and into every branch of administration that
they have touched. To depose him is a farce
while Johnston remains. Redmond is badly
treated. Doubtless he was conscientiously
CARRYING out Democratic principles. For
what where good men put out, to fill up the
establishment with Democrats, if not for
spoil? That this is the right of the victor, is
an old Democratic principle. Redmond was
only carrying this out. The Indictment for
embezzlement, instead of being reason for
Al. 10
should have caused them to rally round him
as representative Democrat under persecu-
tion.-G Gin. GGz

THE cry of more money is almost
as old as trade itself. Adam Smith
had to meet it in his day. No COM
plaint.' he says, lis more common than
that of a scarcity of money. Money,
like wine, must always be scarce with
those who have neither wherewithal
to buy it, nor credit to borrow it. Those
who have either will seldom be in
want of the money or the wine which
they have occasion for Mr.. Haldi-
mand, in his testimony before Par
liamentary committee in 1919, said /:
sWhen people feel distressed they will
always say that they want money; at
the:san1e time. If you doubled erery mans
money, they aoW all remain relatively
in the same situation and aciu be equally
distressed Lord Overstone, in his tes-
timony before Parliamentary COM
mittee in 1857, insisted constantly on
the difference between money and
capital. "People Think" he said, that
whenever they want capital, if they
can only be a further issue Of notes,
notes are capital, and that anything
which puts these notes under a system
Of regulation is really producing some
regulation by which they are to have a
less command of capital than they had
before" In the case OF this country at
the present time, the primary need is
neither money nor even capital, though
an increaseIof capital is never undesir-
able. 1t is renewed confidence that we
want, an adaptation Of affairs to the
condition in which financial revolu-
ton has left us; superstructure of
trade on foundation Of certainty, such
as currency convertible into coin
alone can give. When man can raise
himself to the moon by pulling at his
boot-straps Nation will be able to
csmmand commercial activity by issu-
ing its own unconditional promises to
pay"-and no sooner.-N. Y. Post.

The Ladies' Racen of the Seawanhaka Yacht Club
will also take place to-day Prior 70 the Kane Regatta
would be numerous but the mshaps on that occasion,
which disabled many OF the yachts also belonging TO
the Seawanhaka Club, viii probably reduce the starters

sufficient to make the occasion success. AS the
yachts expected TO carry ladies they will sail in
ordinary cruising trim with boats and anchors
