The Truth About Money.

There is no natural money; 1t is
oil artificial money; money Is the
creation OF man, and not OF God.
Money is the result OF mental con-
coption, formulated into law. 1t has
no need OF intrinsic value to make it
money. II the government issue
two bills with promise to pay on
the one, and the other, with no prom
ise, but by the law OF its Issue, made
full legal tender, both would become
worthless from the same cause,-nn
overthrow Of HE government.
Money issued by the government,
has for its currency the stability Of
that government, and the confidence
the people have In II, because the
real foundation OF money is the
wealth Of AL the people OF u govern
ment, and tho Intelligence they pos
sess to make that wealth productive.
II the government issue treasury
notes with q promise to pay, it Is
simply the people who promise to
redeem from themselves part Of
thoir own money. The government
does not own u dollar and never can
own one except ii Is taken from, the
people In the way OF taxes, and then
1t belongs to tho people because the
government Is theirs. The govern.
ment therefore honors and reaeems
treasury notes issued rs money by
receiving them for all dues to the
government, from the citizen, in the
course OF Its administration. When
so received the government has no
more right to destroy it than it has
to destroy the forts, arsenels and
dcck-yards. They AL belong to the
people, and oil arc for use as needed
mot for destruction.

B0ndh0ldcrs versus Soldiers.

There Is an annual complaint sen,
out from Washington against the
payment OF pensions to the mon who
periled health and life to save their
country. bu: not one word against
the pensions paid to bondholaers.
President Arthur deplorins soldiers
pensions and their magnitude says:
"The fact that a sum so enormous
may be expended by the government
to meet the demands for arrears OF
pensions Is IN admonition to Con
gross, and the executive to give
cautious consideration to any SINH
lar project in the future"
All, indeed! In future congresses
Il Is hoped tho soldier may have
moro friends, bondholders not SO
many. But let us take the official
figures which show the sums paid &c
each class, as that is tho best source
from which to institute compare
sons.

The Same Old story.

The following dispatch tells the
same old, old story:
AT Old orchard the Aldinc, st. Cloud, Fiske
Belmont, Lawrence, and blanchard houses
were destroyed by incendlarics Nothing was
saved from any OF the above finc buildings, or
from any q the number o. other smaller build
tngs bu ned. Insurance ample to cover losses
Here was unproductivc property,
we'll insured, burned by inccndiarics.
In other words 1t was "sold out to
the insurance companies
An insurance adjuster once told us
that probably IS per cent OF all the
fires in the country were the result
OF gross carelcssncss and incendia-
risnl.
1t is safe to say that 90 per cent OF
this s. per cent would never occur
were II not for insurance. It simply
operates us premium upon gross
carclessness and incendiarism.
People build fire traps Of houses,
get them insured and then they nrc
not particular whether they burn Of
not. Others insure buildings for all
| they urc worth and then set them on
fire to get the insurance money.
Do away with insurance and the
great reason for many fires will be
removed.
When building Is burned. SC
much real wealth is lost to a com
munity. The immediate owner may
not be u loser, but the loss falls some
where.
Let people take care Of buildings
instead Of seeking indemnity in
case OF loss through insurance. A
pail Of water at the right moment is
better than an insurance policy.
Insurance in nutshell Is simply
this: A insures BIS house for 81 GOO
The house buns down, and then A
assesses c, d, E., etc. S2,000-s1, 00(
OF which he puts into his own roclS.
ct as expenses and turns the other
ST 900 to Is. (Reports show that one.
half or the premiums arc consumed
in expenses such as rent, commits
sion, salaries, ETC., etc.
The fire insurance companies oil
the United States arc consuming
probably $5O.DOO. 600 per year in tho
shape Of expenses The only ben.
eft they are is to offer rewards fol
