LOCAL CURRENCY.

The Lodi Budget (San Joaquin County,
has the following:
The San Jose Fruit Packing Company have
evolved q nice plan that is great advantage
TO themselves, also their employees and meT-
chants of that city. II Is TO offer in payment
for labor one-ihird in silver and the balance of
the wages in notes of The value OF 81 each.
These are readily accepted by the merchants
and others and keep everything on the move.
The San Jose company is doubtless
doing the best that can be done under ex-
listing circumstances. They are in fact
doing what ii is the business of the Gov
eminent to do-that is, to provide people
with currency who can give security for 1t.
Now, one thousand 81 notes are no better
than one $1,000 note. Why then should a
scarcity of currency compel an employer to
Sign one thousand dollar notes when he
might go to the local bank. if there was DO
scarcity of currency, and get thousand
dollars in small bills? An employer has
as good a right to issue notes to his en-
ployes as the New York Clearinghouse
has to issue certificates which it does not
promise to redeem until the combined
banks get ready.

A PRIVATE VIEW.

a Chicago journal mentions somewhat
caustically the fact that ordinary visitors
TO the Worlds Fair were to be excluded
from the Art building one day during the
last week. The avowed reason for the
exclusion was to give the National Com
missioners and their families a chance to
see the pictures. THE National Commits
sIoners." the Chicago journal explains.
''are gentlemen who are drawing salary
from the United States Government for
jawing at one another in the Administra-
lion building six days in the week" These
jawing gentlemen who have passes which
admit their families have had a great
many opportunities to see the pictures in
the Art building. They have spent weeks
at the fair at the Governments expense.
But they were given day all by them
selves to the exclusion of people who per-
haps had been out once or twice and who
paid when they did 60.

A Burglar With a Bouquet.

About week ago smooth-faeed young
man called at 1904 Laguna street with a
large bouquet OF flowers in his hand. He
asked if Charles Frank lived there and
was answered In the affirmative. but as
Mr.. Frank was not in, the young man said
he would wait for him. He was shown
into Franks room, but when that gen tie
man appeared the smooth-faced young
man had disappeared, and bad taken with
him S45 in cash. gold watch chain and
locket, but had left the bouquet. Detec-
;ives Bee and Harper were put on the
case, and arrested August Buckholtz yes
terday as the thief, and locked him up in
the tanks. Buck kholtZ was arrested about
two months ago for burglary, but beat the
case.

THE EFFECT OF REPEAL.

1t is an American habit to abide by the
action Of the law-making power. II the
people are not pleased With that action
they can in good time reverse it. In re-
spect TO the repeal of the silver purchasing
clause of the so-called Sherman act there
will be ample time tor consideration. The
country will not be ruined by this law or
any other. Il is better to have wise laws
than foolish ones. but the latter are not
fatal. The effect of the demonstration of
silver will be gradual. The contraction 10
prices will come as contraction came in
1875, when the Government declared its
purpose to redeem greenbacks in coin in
1879. Greeenbacks began TO rise and
property to fall. Such result was neces-
sary at the time for the reason that prices
had been fixed on the basis Of a depre-
clated currency. From a short time after
their issue until 1879 greenbacks were be-
low the ccin basis. Contraction now will
be caused by The substition Of money OF
one metal for the money OF two metals as
the basis OF currency. 1t will be con-
traction. outside of the silver now in cireu-
lation, of our own seeking. 1t will last as
long, and no longer, as the people want 1t
to last. In the course of time it viii, we
think, become manifest that the gold basis
is too narrow to float safe currency on.
This country will be treated again to the
condition of abundant wealth and an in
adequate supply of money. Evidences of
Indebtedness that are good in solid prop
erty will not be good for gold at the
banks. Clearinghouse certificates or some
other device more or less in the nature of
fat money will PASS from hand to hand
for want Of better currency. When the
people get tired Of this silver will be re-
monetized TIE money power in the
meantime will have made great winning
Ali debts incurred while the country is on
3 gold basis will be payable in gold.
Debts have in the past been payable in
coin CT either metal unless gold was speei-
fed as the medium Of liquidation, but
when Congress has harmOnized the laws to
the gold standard all debts will be payable
in gold. This fact will remain as eolos-
sal argument against a return to bimetal-
nsm. Il will not be in the power of Congress
to change the terms of contract. Those
who promise to pay in geld will have TO
pay in gold or confess bankruptcy. This
is where the little joker comes in. This is
what the gold clique. of which President
Cleveland is the instrument, will cost the
American people.

NO FREE-TRADERS.

The Nap a Journal declares with consid-
cradle emphasis that no sensible man be-
lieyes that Mr.. Cleveland is a free. trader
or that he has any considerable backing
from that class" The Journal should
know that the term free-trader is applied
to opponents of the protective policy.
Thus England is spoken of as free-trade
nation, although England derives a large
revenue from duties on imports. But these
duties are levied without much regard to
the protection of British industries.

IMMORAL, BUT NOT ILLEGAL.
Plaintiff Did Wrong, But No Pecun-
larry Injury Resulted.
The Supreme Court Decides a Case
Against the Occidental Building
and Loan Association.

The Supreme Court filed its decision
yesterday in Deputy Clerk Govan's Office
in the case of f. S. Wainscott VS.. the Oc-
cidental Building and Loan Association,
Sacramento corporation (appellant).
The action was brought for the RECESSION
of certain conveyances and instruments
connected Herewith, growing out of an
exchange OF property owned by plaintiff
in the county of p lacer for Il tract of land,
with vineyard thereon, ETC., owned by
defendant, situated at Sonoma. The action
was based upon the alleged false and
fraudulent representations of defendant
and its agents, whereby plaintiff is
averred to have been detrauded.
Plaintiff had judgment in the lower
court, from which, and from an order de-
nying a new trial, the defendant ap-
pealed.
THE first point made by the appel
lant," says the Supreme Court, sis that
the complaint does not allege, and the
court does not find, that the plaintiff was
damaged, and hence that the findings do
not support the judgment.
in view of the doctrine enunciated bv
elementary writers, and fully concurred
IN by the courts OF probably every State
in the Union, it will be readily admitted
on all hands that courts of justice do not
act as mere tribunals of conscience to en-
force duties which are purely moral and
involving no pecuniary or tangible
injury. Falsehood, fraud and deceit are
not to be commended, but so long as
their practice only involves a question OF
morals the duty OF their eXtirpation rests
elsewhere than in the courts
But when they are made use of in
the business transactions OF life to accom-
plish a fraudulent purpose, as against
those having a right to rely upon their
truthfulness, and who do so rely and are
thereby deceived and injured, courts
Intervene to redress the wrong and
injury.
The reproof of the moral delinquency
IS but an lncldent-an attending circum
stance-of the paramount object. viz:
the redress OF the injury. 1t is said in
such cases: If any pecuniary loss is
shown to have resulted the court will not
inquire into the extent of the injury; it is
sufficient if the party misled has been
very slightly prejudiced, if the amount is
at all appreciable.' (Pomeroy's Eq.
Juris, Sec. S9S, and cases cited.)
The decision then takes up other
points in the case, and reviews the find
ings of the lower court at length in con-
clusion affirming its judgment and order.
