DAILY REFLECTOR, Friday.
Not the least interesting and Ger.
tainly the NEST appropriate Of tie
Thanksgiving obseryances was the
Union service in the Grace Reformed
church yesterday morning. All the
churches of town united and the pastors
occupied the pulpit. The church was
crowded and an impressive service
vas held.
Rev. \. 5. Dechant opened the
meeting, reading the proclamation for
the days observance. Rev. Halaplian
gave out the first hymn and Rev.
Bennett read the scripture lesson.
Rev. DR.. Blayney followed with prayer
add then came the sermon by Rev.
q. j. Schumacher, of the Evangelical
church. The address from l Chron.
1876, was an earnest recital of our
need of thankfulueSs and the divine
command laid upon US to remember
our blessings.
After the sermon came prayer and
appeal in behalf of the poor by Rev.
SeabroOk. The collection amounted
to S27.73. The money is in the hands
of Rev. Dechant where it will remain
until relief society is organized. The
Grace Reformed church choir furnished
excellent music for the occasion and
when the service closed with the bene-
dictiOn by Rev. DR.. Blayney all went
home bettered by their attendance.

tradition, to lead me in giving any par
ticulars touching the escape Of Pres
colt and Rose from the battlefield. That
they did escape and were married soon
after is well known, and it seems to be
settled that Rose lived with the Ameri-
can army, following her husband through
the hardships of a soldiers life until the
happy end of the war.
Savannah was never retaken by the
Americans. and therefore it was impos-
sible for Rose to see her mother until
after peace had come. and with it the
freedom of America. The family tried
to destroy all the proof Of the affair
which forms the central thread Of my
story, but it could not be done. q
In the army Prescott's beautiful and
devoted wife was given the name that l
have taken for the title Of my romance.
and even so late as in 1910 there was Q
letter written in which she was referred
to as 1.-THE Rose OF Chatham"
Maynard was left where the blow de-
livered so opportunely and so effectively
by Grampus felled him; but he sur
vived many years. and was met in Paris
by Prescott and Rose when they were
travelling for the benefit CT their daugh-
ter's health. twas not a pleasant meet
ing. but there was no encounter. The
men had grown too old, and the circum-
stances out Of which their animosity
arose had been left too far behind for
any active passion to be aroused by such
n chance glimpse at them. Rose, with a
woman's quick sight, observed that when
Maynard's eyes met hers slow, scarcely
noticeable pallor overspread his face, and
the slender scar on his cheek burned like
line Of lightning across dull gray
cloud. He had never married and was
understood to be quiet, reticent, rather
sad hammered man whose chief amuse-
ment was travel.

THE MACHINERY on ExCRANGE.

discussed very fully in the future 1e-
spite the effort of old party managers to
keep 1t out of sight by the tariff ques-
tiOn.
Mr.. Carnegie, In his "a B C of Money"
has discussed this money question as
seen by q millionaire manufacturer In
his palatlal counting room and In the in
terest of the rich. Others have followed,
viewing the question from various stand
point. beg leave to use the columns
Of your paper for brief discussion OF
the money question as seen between the
handles Of the plOw by him who holds
the handles and performs the initial act
in the production Of food for the nation
and in the interest Of the toilerS OF
earth.
Money Is defined as a medium of ex-
change. Farm machinery Is medium
of production on the farm. Money per-
forms the same function and holds the
same relation to commerce that farm
machinery does in and to agriculture.
OF what shall money be made?
Farm machinery and machinery gen.
orally should be made of such material
as will give the greatest service consist
ent with the least cost The cheaper the
farm machinery, other things being equal,
the greater will be the profits in agricul-
ture. Conversely, thousands of farmers
have been ruined bp the high price Of
machinery. This law applies equally to
money; it should be made Of the cheapest
material consistent with convenience
and durability. The cheaper the money
the greater the profits in exchange; and
conversely, millions have been ruined by
high-priced money.
Shall money have intrinsic value?
The answer to this question 10 found
by implication in the foregoing. / will
discuss the question, however. The in
trinsic value of farm or any other kind
Of machinery generally, except money, ia
not considered. Much of the material Of
which machines are made Is consigned
to the rubbish heap as soon as unfit for
use In the machine. No one will object
to the general statement, / think, that
the less the intrinsic value Of machine
the more fully does 1t perform its mis-
sion. OF two kinds of material Of equal
strength and durability, the cheaper
would always be selected In construc-
ton, though the dearer might be worth
SuOre after the machine was worn out.
Intrinsic value in machine means the
absorption of labor which can perform
no service till the machine is destroyed.
Economy would require the expenditure
of such labor in producing other ma
chimes. There is no apparent reason
why the machinery Of exchange should
be subject to differet laws. Intrinsic
value in money means exactly the same
thing as intrinsic value in farm machln-
cry. 1t can perform no service till the
money is destroyed. 1t is no benefit TO
money, but an injury to him who uses it.
Like other machinery, the value of
money when unfit for exchange should
be as small as possible.
How much money, the machinery of
exchange, do we need?
In agriculture, enough Of the most eff
cient machinery Is needed to produce
The advocate., 1891-08-12

system OF money should be instituted,
and Of that money each individual should
have all that he needs in the business of
exchange, It Is not more difficult TO de-
termine the volume Of the machinery Of
exchange needed than that of any other
kind OF machinery. The machinery of
exchange, If made as cheap as il could
and should be, would cause less loss by
excess in volume than almost any other
kind Of machinery. Having no appre-
ciable intrinsic value, it's value as ma
chinery would disappear when not
wanted. Il could be stored away or de-
stroyed almost indifferently. Value
would not be In money, but in the things
exchanged through It's instrumentality.
How shall money be got into circula-
ton?
To answer this question we have only
to consider how other machinery is got
into circulation or use. In agriculture
the farmer should pay for his machinery
only actual cost of production. He buys
his machinery and Immediately puts it
into circulation or to the use for which 1t
was designed. Every farmer and the
country would be the gamer could farm
machinery be made on the cooperative
plan. It would be still better could ma
chinery be not only made but owned on
the cooperative plan, the individual
renting of the community or nation.
The result would be cheaper and better
machinery In more general use. The
machinery Of exchange having in its
mission to circulate far more extensively
than other machinery, necessity has
forced communities and nations to adopt
the cooperative plan more or less COM
pletely in making and using money. A
perfect system of money requires COM
plete cooperation In the manufacture
and use Of the machinery of exchange.
To get money into circulation then, the
people Of the nation will make their ma
chinery Of exchange comparatively, each
buying or hiring enough to do his ex-
change business. The price of machin-
cry will be governed by cost of produc-
tlOn, just like other machinery. Getting
money into circulation is thus seen to be
very simple matter.
Shall money be redeemable?
This question Is disposed Of in very
few words. The need of money will be
perpetual and the money will be perpet-
ual. When the people as a nation adopt
system Of money and make the ma
chinery Of exchange and put the same
into circulation by using 1t, each article
of machinery is the property of each and
every individual who is pledged to accept
the same in his business of exchange.
The redemption OF money is constantly
going on, the whole people redeeming
the national money daily.
Shall interest be paid for the use Of
money!
One needing the use of q machine
either buys or hires one, as suits his
means or inclination. If the machine Is
cheap, easily cared for:And Of general use,
he will likely own by buying. II, on the
other hand, the ownership entails consid-
cradle first cost, and considerable cost Of
maintenance, he will likely pay the
owner for use. Should there be those
