as Ulysses says to Achilles In that fine
speech in Shakspeares play of Troilus
and Cressida: zone touch of Nature

touch OF the wonderful Spirit which
none knows; none has ever seen, but
which all feel, has made all men alike
in their love of everything that
pretty is" and has given to all power
TO observe and reflect on what their
senses perceive; has made all men
love the precious metals for their
beauty and desire them for their use
fitness. Hence universal demand for
them arose: hence universal value is
attached TO them, and so it was before
civilization, was and will be even If
time shall bring the sad reverse or a
darkened world again, with man re-
turning to his huts and tents and

shook as if Ginning in unison with the
mellow voice that uttered them. 'Oh,

appeared at the window and the door
softly opened. Then there was another

CLEVELAND'S FINANCIAL VIEWS

Ex-President Cleveland Is not unlike
Mr.. Toots in his management OF him
self.
Mr.. Toots was sad; Mr.. Cleveland is
sad; the former schemed TO make him
self believe himself a great man III
embryo; the latter schemes to make
himself believe himself a great man in
fact. So he is forever planning to have
himself interyiewcd the latest is on
the monetary system of the country.
He explains that what he has said
heretofore he may not mean hereafter.
The first half of a column Interview
can be reduced TO that. The second
half to an acceptation and promu gu
tion Of what is called the per capita
theory. or that there ought to be so
many dollars, in great nation, to
every man, woman and child.
Many mushroom economists think
this new theory, but the truth is II
is old as civilized society. From Ari-
stotle's down to our own day, econo-
mic writer's have considered IL care
fully, repeatedly rejecting 1t. Not one
of all them that survive in the ranks
of the worlds great thinkers has ac'
ceptcd it. Aod IL is a theory wholly
incapable Of scientific solution. How
is il to be carried out? We know how
20 ration a man or an army; know how
to clothe man or child-know 1t posi-
lively and accurately, but how are W.
TO ration a man or a community will
dollars?
Shall IL be ten dollars or Thousand
per capita.
And as the poet tells us;
Every minute dies man,
Every minute one is born.
Or one and half he might have sal
with greater accuracy-are we TO haV
n commission TO call in SO many do
lars when John Doe shall have die
and put out so many more whe
Richard Roe and Susan Doe shall hay

mission SJdDu dN Odobit PhiNNH ~
order an increase of the current
when Hans, Pat, Peter and Bepl
come: and another at our Weste
gate TO order it because Of Wun Lune
arrival?
The proposition is entirely chime
merical, and has grown out OF III
damental error in thinking
money, its origin, nature and fur
tions. For not by conventiC
nor preconccived plan, did man ado
money-the precious metals. The

The West Shore periodical has failed
and the late managers are in the not
exceedingly edifying business of ex-
planning how the thing happened by
upbraiding each other in published
cards and in chickering's and recrimina-
lions. They make the great mistake
of thinking that the failure of West
Shore is a matter of universal import
ance, when the fact is thas 1T will not
probably affect any individual for
single instant except those who were
directly interested In it either a.
stockholders or wage-workers. On thu
contrary the old world will wag alon,

regarded as potent friends to our city.

trade and were Fairhayen's pioneer
steamers, so to speak. The officers OF
both vessels have been always afiable

bad effect upon the real estate market for the reports
Of last weeks business by no bright a.
they were for the previous week. On the whole
however, the transactions were fairly satisfactory,
although they were not by any means numerous. II
seems that buyers waiting until after the opening
Of the new year before they do much more than
consider the bargains that offered them by the
agents and the real estate dealers. On this account
is not thought that the real estate market for the
next two weeks will amount 10 much. Good judges
say however that the outlook for good business and
for what Is still better for the agents and holders
good prices is promising. Money is said TO 10 easy
and buyers willing. which ought to produce lively and
