JAY GOULD says that his first visit to New
York was during the Crystal Palace EXhibi-
ton, when he was mere boy. He was
then. as now. full of ambition, and he took
with him TO New York patent mouse trap,
which he thought would revolutionize the
world and make his fortune. 1t was not a
big thing, but Jay took great pride in it.
The mouse trap, however. got him into
trouble. 1t did not make his fortune, but
the idea of trap has ever since shaped Jay
Gould's business career. He has had more
traps set than any other man in America,
and he has been successful at trapping. He
still sets traps, some OF which he believes
will revolutionize the world. He has rail-
road and telegraph traps, which have caught
big game, and since New York is too small
for his trapping schemes, he is taking in the
West and Southwest. Jay Gould started
with mouse trap. He now traps for bulls
and bears and millionaires, for stockholders
and bondholders, and game of such descrip-
ton is constantly seen dangling or dead in
his traps

PETER CooPER's idea is that the Govern
ment should issue its own currency. These
notes. he says, may be redeemable in coin
or receivable at Post Office Savings Banks,
where a rate of interest is paid that will
keep them at par with coin. Why not use this
currency to buy gold and silver bullion and
coin it, and with this coin, and with the
hundreds of millions now idle in the Treas
ury, pay off the bonds falling due as fast
as possible, and thus stop the interest
on them, and relieve the people from the
debt entirely9''
