What a spectacle is this in the free
American Republic =? There's one
dollar for the bondholder, one for she
white man and another for the niger.
We have three kinds of money, each
having a difference by law in the pay
ment of debts. Gold for the bond
holder, silver for the white man and
the fat paper for the niger. Ere
while all these different classes had a
different value, and now have a differ
ent legal force. The farmers want all
money to have the same unit OF value
and the same legal force all over the
nation, and any State bank and any
financial scheme which don't come up
to these requirements are hereby re-
pudiated as originating among them.
We will do justice to the old State
banks by saying that speculation and
concentration of the currency did not
affect the money value as a whole.
This was caused by their numbers and
their evenly scattered condition, which
in some measure prevented concert Of
action. The people, in the 1naugura
ton of any financial plan, must en-
deavor to thwart the speculator and
public spectator. For the land pirates
of America, not being consulted, and
losing much of their unearn5d gains,
will endeavor to circumvent and bring
into condemnation by their manipula
tons any currency set up by the PEG
pie. Therefore we want no partner
ship of the government with these
sharks. The fiscal agents of the gov
eminent must be paid officers of the
government or of the State. If this
is done the control and speculation in
money will be thwarted to a great ex-
tent. Along the lines enumerated
great dangers lurk around this popular
movement. Let the patriots of Amer.
i3a be well assured that their schemes
will be assailed by every device which
the ingenuity of man can invent; for
it is millions for the people and not
one cent for tribute. If it becomes a
necessity for our lawmakers to do
something to save their hides, their
first efforts will likely be to side track
this movement, so that the sharks can
get their old usury. Many theories
of this sort will be conjured up. The
fight is now simply a skirmish-a dart
ing of few row under cover; but
the enemy is drilling his forces and
preparing for a general combat. Let
the patriots stick to their creed; they
are right, they are solid, and prepare
for the ~irrepressible conflict.

The question of the Hawaiian cable
a Hawaiian cable amendment had a proper

carry out the treaty, had been repealed by

to the conference report he understood
from a source which had fully examined
the question that the omission Of 4 clause

the amendment as another step in the fatal

to the amendment on the same ground. If
the cable was to be a part of the national
defense, it WAS improper that it should be

of enterprising men who wanted to make

Statesmen with Their Hats On.

The American who goes 10 parlia-
ment house il surprised 70 see the com
mons and lords sitting with their hats
on. The hat worn is invariably the
"stovepipe' or plug" An English
NJ. p. in anything but a high hat would
create a great sensation. Our English
friends have some very queer customs
handed down 70 them through the ages.
For instance. when a member comes
into parliament he carries his hat in his
hand, but on sitting down he puts it
upon his head. If a member wishes TO
speak he takes off his hat and holds it
in his hand; if he wants TO make a
long speech he puts his hat on the
bench, though he does not remove it
till he has been recognized by the
speaker. But if he wishes simply 70
make a motion OF ask a question he
keeps his hat on his head.-Augusta

The seat in the class of mechanics of
the Institute made vacant by the flight
Of Carnot was filed In 1877 by the cleo
ton of a young artillery officer, Napol-
con Bonaparte, just retuneS nom his
Italian campaign covered with glory.
The first consul paid much favorable
attention TO the Institute, and it con
tinues to this day very much as it left
his hands in the new constitution
which he gave it in 1906.
He exhibited his admiration for the
pure sciences and his dislike to the
speculative sciences, philosophy and
ethics by the expansion of the conven-
tons first class and the entire suppress
sion of the second class, thus creating
four classes: Sciences physiques ct
mathematiques, la langue ct La littera-
