In our opinion the repeal OF the Sher-

This is a good, common sense Ameri-

They cannot furnish the motive

ing wreck and ruin. and hurting woe,
want and desolation throughout the
land.
What the country needs is a currency
issued by the government, sufficient to
meet all requirements, legal tender
treasury note, receivable for all dues
both public and private-with no ex-
ception clauses-thus placing the gov
eminent and the citizen, the debtor
and the creditor, on an equal footing.
The volume thus issued can be con-
trolled by act of congress. As trade
and commerce increase, so can the num-
Der of circulating dollars be increased.
Congress meets every year, hence there
need be no reason why, by care and at
tention to this important matter, an
adequate amount of treasury notes can
not be issued and adjusted to suit the
shifting requirements of the business
of the country.

Some Interesting Expressions from Lead

ing Men on the Situation.
Some of our professors of political
economy do move" Differing with
those who are standing still because
they have ossifed into book worms is
Francis A. Walker. He says:
NO class of questions now take
precedence in the public thought of
economic questions. A revolution is
upon us. The fountains of the great
deep are broken up The bonds of ira
dition and barriers of authority have
been swept away. EVERYTHING once
deemed settled in economic theory is
now audaciously challenged"
In his latest work on political ccon-
omy, Prof Ely says:
"All natural monopolies such rs
roads, streets, canals, docks, bridges,
ferries, water ways, harbors, railways,
telegraphs, telephones, post offices, gas
works, waterworkS street railways,
electric lights, etc, should be built,
owned and conducted by the whole
people through the machinery of the
government of the state, union or mu-
nicipality, for the benefit of the whole
people"
Prof. Ward says:
THE modern idea is gaining ground
that government is a business agency,
joint stock company on a large scale.
The people are beginning to see that
they can appoint agents to conduct
their public business to advantage, and
that the danger is not that the govern
.ment shall go too far in the service OF
the people, but that it will not go far
enough"
Prof Patten. of the university of
Pennsylvania, in recent address be-
fore the American economic association,
said:
Our national government is now the
largest business concern in the world,
and its constant growth in that direction
marks the progress of civilization"

The big bankers are saving them
selves by issuing credit certificates and
passing them through the clearing
house for money. No gold to base
them on. Wind, nothing else. No
government behind them, nothing but
the promise of the bankers. How about
gold being the only safe thing to rely
on. The first littlepuff that comes along
and there is not gold enough in sight
to physic snipe, if it was all turned
into tartar emetie. Fiat money and
that of private individuals is the only
thing in the big cities that is saving
the worst panic that ever occurred in
this country.-Lamar (Mo) Industrial

BEAR THIS IN MIND.

Nations that Are Sot in Debt Are Not
Concerned About the Standard of
Value.
A nation which, as government, is
not in debt. its bonds not being held by
foreign nations, need not concern itself
about what the so-ealled standard of
value" may be in other nations. Ma
tional governments are responsible for
and have to pay national debts only.
Adverse trade balances are paid by
firms, corporations and individuals in
gold or silver, coined or uncOined, by
weight at their market values. The
Sis, 600 in gold, lost by the United
States during the last twelve months,
was not exported by the United States
government, but by individuals. Some
Of it was sent abroad to settle trade
balances; some to pay for securities of
fered for sale at low figures by foreign
nations: some of it was exported purely
and simply as a speculation for the
money there was in it. Less than nine
teen million dollars in United States
bonds are held abroad and our govern
ment is not concerned whether foreign
nations have as standard a gold idol,
a silver image or brass monkey.
Under such circumstances how fool
ish and unnecessary it is for us TO tie
our monetary system and volume of
currency to the metals gold and silver
Let us have American money for Amer
lea. Give us money to use at home
that no one else wants and let those
who owe England, or any other nation
anythingspay it in gold or silver bull
lion, without disturbing our volume of
domestic CURRENCY.
