The motto. en- God We Trust. =
which Is now stamped upon all cold
and silver coins Of the United States,
was suggested by an Old farmer living
in Maryland. This conscientious Chris
tian gentleman thought that our cur
rency should indicate in some way the
Christian character Of our nation, which
he argued would be best done BY put.
ting a motto upon our coins, express
ing a national reliance ON divine sup
port in governmental affairs. II was
in 1861, when s. p. Chase was Secre-
tary Of the Treasury, that this man
wrote to Washington respecting his pet
idea. His letter was referred to Mint
Director Pollock, who discussed the
question in his report Of 1862.
Pollock and Chase were in favor Of
introducing the motto at once, bat
Congress gave the suggestion no at
tentl0n whatever.
III his next annual report Director
Pollock again referred to the matter,
this time III firm theological argument,
saying, The motto suggested, God
Our Trust, is taken from our national
hymn, The Star Spangled Banner; the
sentiment is familiar to every citizen
Of our country; the time is propitious;
Ills an hour Of national peril. Let US
reyerently acknowledge His sovefeigni-
ty, and let our coinage declare our
trust in God.
A two-cent bronze piece was author
lied by Congress to be coined the fol-
lowing year, and on April %, 1864,
the first United States coin was stamp
ed with the legend, I'm God We
Trust

not A GOOD PLAN.
FRiTERSAL GUARDIANS DIFFER n
OPINIONS or THE ORDER.


a GOOD, ONE.
The Order Of fraternal guardians had
meeting in Baltimore Monday night.
called BY number Of the members
who had become dissatisfied with the
plan the organization is run on. These
members belong to the Oriole lodge,
and they have distributed circular
containing brief statement Of the
facts and calling meeting Of the mem
bers Of all the lodges Of the order in
the city to meet and consider the sub
iect Of dissolying the society.
One Of the most prominent members
Of the Oriole lodge, Tuesday morning,
said: Yes, we had q meeting Mon
day night at Benson's hall. The call
for this meeting was issued by the
Oriole lodge, and was caused by some
Of our thinking people deciding, after
careful and thorough examination
into the plan Of the organization, that
| it was one which meant inevitable
failure. 1t is just like the other
schemes Of the kind that have appear
ed, flourished as green bay tree,
and have suddenly dropped with q
thud felt by every pocketbook inter-
ested. No one has found or does find
any fault at all with the management
Of the lodge. The management is as
good as any organization has. In
fact, it is one Of the best. But we
have no faith in the plan.
Sowing to the inclemency Of the
weather Monday, there was COM
paratively slim attendance at our meet
ing, and as may be supposed, those
who hold bonds which are to mature
in short while were out in full force.
OF course they are in favor Of continu-
ing, but I'll wager when they have
gotten out they won't evince much de-
sire to reinyest. After discussing the
matter and after we had fully explain
ed to them how the lodge could not
possibly under the most favorable cir
cumstances exist more than few
months, and how there are so many of
our members who are hard working
people who can i'll afford to lose the
money they have invested in the enter
prise, they rose up and passed reso-
luton expressing their confidence in.
plan and voting to continue the organi-
zation. These people are simply those
who got in at the first, and now that
the promised land is just over the hill,
they don't care continental how any
one else may suffer or what they lose
Just so they get their little pile.
.tNow was among those who start
ed in at the beginning, but | have no
desire to be benefited financially at
the expense Of many who are poor peo-
ple,i and who went into the thing be
lieving there was no doubt but what
they would in time receive their mon
ey back with high interest. To take
this from them now, as will have to be
done if the order is continued for a
few months, is nothing more or less
than taking it directly out Of their
pockets"
