of Watching the masiers go past from

REPUBLICAN, COUNTY TICKET.
TIE EAGLES FINANCIAL WRITERS.

The columns of the EGLE have beer
burthened, of late, with financial dis
cussions, from all sorts of writers. we
hopes somebody has been enlie htened
But we have been forcibly and per
sistently struck with the conviction that
very few OF these correspondents have
any idea OF what money is. Some OF
them, evidently, think that gold and
silver are money. Others hold that gold
and silver, as such, are absolute meas
ures of value. Values in fact, are not
measured but compared. Gold and
silver have commercial values and are
made to bear money values, but neither
is measure or standard values in the
sense of a pound for weight or a
yard for length. Values are
ever huctuating, as are the values of
these metals and as also are those of
real money. Money is not necessarily
either gold, silver or paper. Money is
simply a credit representative; an evil
dence that given good is due the hold
er from the community at large; a
thing created by law representing a
credit value, for commercial purposes,
and to pay debts and taxes. Money is
IN official representative, not a de facto
value, although it may be made of ma
IL e
rails containing commercial values in
and of themselves, as gold, silver, cop
per, nickle. iron and paper. Americas
money is never sent to Europe TO square
accounts or balances OF trade. It's the
commercial metal, of fiuctuating, not in
strinsic, value that is accepted by our
foreign creditor who converts such
metal or other fuctuating value into
the money or credit account of his own
country. Gold and silver are ever fiuc-
tuating in value, not only with reference
TO each other, but also as to all other
values. Silver has not probably fallen
in value Of late, measured by other
values, as that gold has gone away up.
A corner in gold is just as possible as
corner in wheat or in any
other commodity. Gold has been
cornered, practically, for years, and
If its controllers could force their idea
Of its being a standard or true measure
of money, then they could corner the in
dustries of the world.
In short, real money is that which the
law declares shall be tender for any
commercial obligation, national or in
dividual, its value resting on, and being
coextensive with the ability or value of
the government that makes tits
credit; everything else in the way of
metal money and paper money being
but representative or tangible evidences
of such ability or credit, the material of
which they are made holding their rela-
live commercial values as materials and
nothing more.

Noting the Linn county sensation of
two or three days ago the Kansas City
Gazette remarks: The failure and
departure OF Banker kincaid from Linn
county suggests that no matter
how well known a man is, how honest
or successful he may be. showing at
reasonable intervals is always proper.
He seems to have been receptacle for
the funds of the innocent and unsophi.-
ticated and he cleaned Linn county out
in fine shape" And as to the .'show-
ing," the Gazette might have added that
no honest man will object or hesitate to
make one: on the contrary he rather
courts an examination AT short intervals
and any time if nlay be desired by par
sies i interest.

The case is particularly sad, as Mr.. Myer

county for the strip about month ago,
expecting to make home there. When
near Newton she was taken suddenly i'll
