Outstanding the provisions of his
own measure, he would never have
made such a remark. That gentle
man does not seem to comprehend
the meaning of language, even
when used by himself. From his
inner consciousness, or some other
equally mysterious source, he has
read into his bill something which
is not there, and which does not
resemble anything which is there.
After explaining how the bank is
to loan its paper on Government
bonds at 80 per cent. of their mar
ket value, collecting the interest
thereon, ETC., he goes on to make
this astounding assertion: $50 the
bond and the interest accruing on
the bond are both held for the re-
demption of the money loaned :"
which is simply untrue-an asser-
ton contrary to fact, and without
anything in the bill to sustain it.
The bond and interest thereon are
NOT held as security for the re-
demption of the money; they
are held as security for the
repayment of the loan that is, the
return to the Government of the
money borrowed, and for nothing
else. There is no security of any kind
held or provided for the ultimate
redemption of the money itself. 1t
is difficult to understand from Mr..
Horner or anyone else with wit
enough to earn a living can so con-
found two things which are not
only entirely distinct, but dia-
metrically opposite. Is it possible
Mr.. Horner does not understand
the difference between security for
the return of paper money borrowed
and security for the ultimate re-
demption or payment of that paper
money, one being matter between
the Government and the man who
borrowed the money and the other
a matter between the Government
and the parties who may have re-
ceived the money from the bor-
rover, or any outside parties in
whose hands it may happen to be ?
One is a debt due TO the Govern
ment, and the other an obligation
due BY the Government. A man
who cannot see the difference be-
tween security for debt due to
the Government, viz, the loan, and
security for an obligation owing BY
the Government, to wit, the I'M
redeemed paper money is too far
gone to be worth arguing with.

What is Redemption? How Does
HOrner'S Banking Act Pro-
vide For IT?

Mr.. EDITOR: The above are
questions apparently honestly
asked by Anti-Dog. Therefore I
beg to make some explanation, as
Anti-Dog seems calm enough to
hear, see and reason, which S. L. B.,
writing in the same paper, on ac-
count of passion or prejudice, or
both, seems incapable of doing.
Anti-Dog, your definition of re-
demption is accepted I have never
had the boldness to claim nor
argue that money paid, as taxes,
tariffs or other dues, to Government
was legitimate redemption. A few
days ago, while conversing with an
opponent respecting the two re-
demptions provided in the bill, |
incidently remarked that did not
consider money redeemed when
paid as taxes and dues to Govern
ment. "Ohl" said he, chat is
good redemption" "All right" I
said, eff that is redemption, my
bill provides for three redemptions
for its money"
1st.-Redeemed as taxes, tariffs
and dues to Government.
2d.-Redeemed, when it is re-
turned to the bank, by the bank
giving for it certificate of deposit
drawing interest and payable on
demand.
3d.-It is redeemed when the
borrower carries it back and re-
deems his property with it.
So, taking all of the provisions of
the bill into account, we must pro-
nounce the redemption of the
money of the Bank of Hawaii "per-
feet" The "first" accommodates
those who have taxes, tariffs and
dues to pay. The second" ac-
commodities those who have more
money than they know what to do
with, and want to loan it for an in
terest where it will be safe. The
third" allows, yes compels, all
borrowers to carry back to the bank
the money borrowed, if they wish
TO save their property.

A New Light.

A German inventor has devised q
means of producing light superior in
strength to either oil or electricity. 1t
is by means of air driven through pumice
stone, the latter having been impregnated
with benzine. The benzine gas thus OBJ
tanned is then carried through a fine mag
nesium powder, and proceeds upward
through pipe to be consumed in small
flame of a claimed 40O,0 900 candle-
power. The apparatus for producing
this light consists of blast engine for
driving the air through the pumice and
number of other accessories, all of
which take up but a small space, and
which are enclosed in a glass case for
protection from the elements, as the light
is especially designed for coast illumina-
ton. The arrangement is especially
adapted for giving an intermittent light,
the consumption of magnesium being
small, depending on the power OF the
light required. English Mechanic.

Platinum a Popular Metal.

The great demand for platinum for
electrical apparatus has caused such ex-
traordinary advance in the price of the
metal, which has doubled in value in the
last three years, and is now worth three
fourths Is much as gold. For certain
scientific instruments this metal is indis-
pensible. It is found only in small
quantities in few localisies-as platinum
ore in Peru, Columbia and Brazil, and in
small steel-gray grains in California,
Oregon, Borneo and the Ural Mountains.
The principal source of supply is the
Urals. The total yearly produstion has
never exceeded four tons, and at present
is not more than three tons.-Trenton

Sheep are not commonly regarded as
useful as beasts of burden, but in large
part of Northwest India Thousands OF
sheep carry for many miles the comnfodi-
ties that are purchased by the sale OF
their own wool. The mountain paths
among the foothills of the Himalayas are
so precipitous that the sheep, more sure
footed than larger beasts, are preferred
as burden carriers. The load OF each
sheep is from, sixteen to twenty pounds.
The sheep are driven from village to
village, with the wool still growing, and
in each town the farmer sheers as much
wool as be can sell there, and loads the
sheep with the grain which he receives
in exchange. After his flock had been
sheared he turns it toward home, each
sheep having on its back small bag
containing the purchased grain.--Boston
