The N. Y. Post says the coun-
try is reaping today the harvest of
fifteen years of reckless monetary
legislation. The evil is deeply
rooted and Of long continuance; its
final extirpation bids fair to be a
heroic process New York, whose
voice has been steadily raised in
protest against the silver infatua-
ton, has in the main made ready
for the coming storm. The West
and South, which forced such leg
islat on on the country, are taking g
their punishment now, and it bids
fair to prove severe before it is en-.
ded."
In other words our contemp orary
wants to say Il told you So" On
the other hand the News AND OBsER
YER while controverting the position
taken by the Post, can with good
grace say that it is not at all sur
prised that there should be fnan
cial trouble. Such troubles come
because of the scarcity of currency
and the evil has been the want O.
an adequate supply. Had it moi
been for the increase made under
the legislation which the Post op
poses, the trouble would have com,
long ago.
It is ridiculous to say that th,
foreign demand for our gold ha
been stimulated by our silver legis
lation; or that the trouble in Au
stralia has its origin in our silve
law. And so, also, it is ridiculou
to ascribe the dearth of currency t
the only legislation which has in
creased the supply. Instead Q
making the argument it does, ou
esteemed contemporary should Civ
its best thought to devising som
plan for increasing the amount Q
money in this country. AS for tn
New York banks, were their countr
correspondents to withdraw thei
deposits and keep their reserves i
their own vaults, New York woul
be in most unenviable condition
New York does business largely O
the money Of the South and West.

STARTLING CRIME.
Young Graduate of Columbus, o., Strange

Young Graduate of Columbus, o., Strange
1y Murdered.
COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 26.-The burning
of man in straw stack south of
this city, Thursday night, supposed to
be tramp, developed Friday to be
shocking murder. The body was
burned beyond recognition, and it was
Coroner Herbst's theory that 1t was
tramp, and that he had crawled, in an
intoxicated condition, into the stack to
sleep, and set the stack on fire while
trying to light his pipe.
Friday morning the body was identi-
fed by William Shepherd, travelling
salesman for the Franklin Buggy Co.,
living at 1871 East Fifth street, as that
of his son Frank, 81, who left home for
a walk at 1880 last evening and never
returned.
1t is believed that he was murdered
for what money he had and his body
burned in the stack. His skull was
crushed.
Young Shepherd graduated at the
State university last June, and was to
enter Yale next month.
