WINTER RACING BILL.
[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE 1RrBUSE.1
Trenton. March 13-when Governor werts
comes TO Trenton tomorrow he will, 1t is said,
IND many letters on his desk from people OF every
walk IN life urging him TO call extra session Of
The Legislature The people, without regard TO party,
want the racetrack gambling laws repealed, and the
feeling OF indignation that swept over the state on
their passage has not subsidized. Indeed, it will not
die OFT. but will continue a subject for discussion
in the newspapers and pulpts Of the State until the
great wrong is righted. The Democratic leaders are
ut oggeheads over the matter. and quarrels are on
among them that bid fair to last until the next cleo
tion According TO the reports current here Senator
Mcpherson is urging Governor Werts to call the law
makers back while Miles Ross and Nelson Pdcock
are opposing an extra sessi m.
Good lawyers have scanned the " Duke Of Glouces-
ter's" bill making winter racing unlawful, and pro-
nounce 1t clcancut which will stand and prove
effective. When 1t was up on final passage last
saturday afternoon, not single member OF the Leg
stature, except the Duke" had the measure,
and all who voted for 1t did his word that 1t
was a good bill, and ought TO pass" 1t would be
idle for any OF these to assert that they under
stood the bill from hearing 1t read by the reading
clerks Of the legislature The speed with which the
Inter go through bill would make Hilltop racer
dizzy One generally understands the title OF bill
portion of it, and the last clause repeating all acts
inconsistent with the one under Consideration but what
comes between sounds like mixture OF Choctaw He
brew, Low Dutch and pidgin English
The "Duke Of Gloucester" is not claiming credit
for having made q concession to the moral element.
He acknowledges that he tired Of winter racing
anyhow. According TO his notion a man who can
afford 1t ought to go to Florida In the winter time
and. see the aligators dsport themselves. When he
talks OF his WEAKNESS in the winter. he intimates
that the Guttenburg people also get tired at that
period Of the year. II they don't he proposes to make
them So There cap be no doubt that there Is
big war on between the Hilltop and the gloucester
folks and the main purpose OF THE Dukes bill Is to
injure "Denny" Mclaughlin He Will succeed In IN
sustain as much damage as Denny" before Denny
gets through with him. Its going &c be diamond

millions that his friends boast he has to spare for

tax on wbiskey tobacco. etc. paid the PENSIONS nc
then said that the whole Internal Revenue tax did
not amount TO $4,000 year. OF course ne khe"

IS applied to paying pensions, and II so, was inc

Hartman, Tenn, Feb %, 1893
Tho internal revenue receipts have for years
been in excess of the pensions paid by the Gov-
eminent.
If any Tennessee Democrat will consult The
Tribune Almanac" which is standard authority
and will not be disputed by men OF any party.
ne will lind that the pensions paid in 1892 were
Sl34.5s3,O53, and that the receipts the same
year from internal revenue were Sl539'l'o'2'
an excess of over 10000, 900 in favor Of the in
ternal revenue receipts.
The pensions paid in 1901 were 1924, 1851,
and the amount received that year from internal
revenue taxes was Sl45, 6sG,240. teing over
sol 600. 900 in favor of the internal revenue re-
ceipts.
The large increase in pensions in 1902 over
the year 1901 was due largely to the Dependent
Pension bill passed by the List Congress
The internal revenue receipts not applied
to the payment of pensions. any more than any
other money which is paid into the Treasury.
Those taxes all 90 into the Treasury the same
AS custom duties. which are collected on I'M
ported goods Pensions are paid out of ANY
Traa
piated., the same as other Government eX-
pendturs But the money paid out for pensions
during the last twenty-five years has been many
millions OF dollars less each year than the
amount paid for internal revenue taxes
IL is very strange that any man OF ordinary
intelligence should claim that the receipts Of the
Government from internal revenue taxes did not
amount to $4,000 a year Such man may do
for a Democrat. but before becoming Repub

WOULD 500 PER CAPITA BE TOO MUCH

WOULD 500 PER CAPITA BE TOO MCCH
TO the Editor OF The Tribuhe'
Sir: VIII Mr.. Horr please answer the following
question
owing to the diversity OF industries over a large
country, Is It not necessary to have IN circuiao"

~ gold and silver are to be the representative OF

Clay Court House. W. Va. Feb. 20, 1898.
Money is not the representative of other prop
erty. IL is simply something that Is USED 10
aid in the exchange OF one kind of property for
another kind, and may also be itself held as
propcrty. Gold and silver are used as the OASIS
of credit: and just how much money Is needed
nor capita in each country depends entirely
on the methods of doing business among the
people Of such country.
In France where paper money is scarce, asid
where there are no country banks 10 TAKE oe-
nosits and receive checks, most OF the pusineSS
is done with gold and silver coin In tha' couh-
try large amount of the circulating "e"iuni
No, canta is needed In the United States the
largest bulk OF the business is done wlthou' 'n'
handling of a single dollar of what is usually
called money. Hence. we do not need any such
amount of money per capita as they do in
France. This talk about the great amount OF
money needed per capita is largely humbug. 10
n careful student it has little significance.
In some countries 500 per capita would be 100
l,,tle in some il would be too much in others
there could he live times much business done
on $40 per capita and not use even all OF that.
Modern invention has taught our people to utilize
money so that 81 to-day will facilitate the ex-
change of more property than SEQ would many
years ago. 1t is not the amount OF the CIR

ness good, but it is the amount of business done
which keeps money active and makes it OF use
