MONEY.


Cor. OF lie DEMOCRAV.)
TIE man who sails the ocean. digs
Town the mountains, levels up the
valleys, measures the stars or faith
,ms the deep does it all for money.
For it macy q man so~s plods and
tolls and resps. For money he gives
his dave. years, his energies, his
mind and his life.
Then what is money 1t is Meth
er silver nor gold, nor copper, nor
any other metallic substance. 1t Is
neither parchment, nor paper. nor
draft, nor check, nor any other fl
hrous substance. Nor is it a promise
| to paw or redeem. 1t needs no prom
| ise. It needs no redemption. 1t
cannot be redeemed. 1t is the re-
! dee ner.
Then what is money?
] don't know that l can tell; hut
at the time Abraham lived it wes
gold and silver counted in shekela.
Abraham bought Machpelah for 9
burying ground and paid therefor
four hundred shekeis of silver.
In the United States % $40 grains
Of gold and 4l21 grains of silver, a
certain fneness, coined into dollar 8
and fractional parts of dollar and
made legal tender in the payment
!. OF debts, is money.
Money is made Of gold and silver
because Of their value and adsptabil
lty and our ability in handling. Ia
the beginning it wss soon discovered
that men and nations could not dea
with eech other nor exchange The
products Of their labor snd skill arc
mind without some rule or standard
Experience soon demonstrated THE
Farious things were resorted to By
the different nations of the world by
which they could deal with each 9th
! er on equal terms; but for many age!
their devices were very crude AM
unsatisfactory. Finally the necessi
ty of trade, with the experience AM
wisdom of the world, adopted golt
and silver, coined and stamped b,
each government and divided int,
unlts as q measure Of value, and fo
more than three thousand years met
ais, IN some form or other and of
certain fneress, coined according t.
the laws of each nstioD, have becl
] received as standards of value an,
have been received as money.
5 We need not fear that the worl,
or the United States will hecom
flooded with gold and silver or wit

APreacher in Trouble.

has been received here from Moline,
Ills, saying that the Rev. j. o. Read,
pastor of the First Baptist church of
East Portland, who was supposed to
have been drowned in the Willamette
river last Tuesday night is in that city
at the residence of his brother and that
his mind is badly shattered owing to
overwork. The conclusion that he had
been drowned was drawn from the fact
that his clothing was found on the river
bank. The report is current that a
woman figures in the case.
