There are sixty-fve lumber mills within

GOOD AUTHORITY,

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 il
now audaciously challenged"
In his latest work on political econ
omy, Prof Ely says:
Gail natural monopolies such a.
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 business agency,
a 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"

AMERtCA FOR AMERICANS.

Give Dc Full Legal Tender Paper Money
and . System Of Government Banks.
In our opinion the repeal Of the Sher.
man law will not restore confidence or
make better times Its repeal will not
increase the volume Of money, but,
rather, it will reduce it. It is contrac-
tion-not expansion. It is drawing in
not throwing out. 1t is harder times
downward tendency of business, what
should be done? Adopt monetary sys-
tenn for this country independent of all
other nations. -Emporia Republican.
This is good, common sense Ameri.
can suggestion. While we doubt if the
repeal of the Sherman law would either
result in an expansion or contraction OF
our currency. the proposition to estab-
lish an American monetary system in-
dependent of all other nations is both
practical and rational. Had the repub-
ican party adopted and adhered to this
kind of monetary policy and kept it
self clear of entangling alliances with
corporations and pu.lic plunderers,
there would have been no peoples par
ty to-day nor any need of one. But the
party has departed from those rational
principles and practices, and the editor
of the Republican will find himself
without party if he adheres to such
heresies, unless he fees to the populist
camp.
We may differ, and differ honestly,
concerning our theories of money, and
concerning the details of correct sys-
tenn of American finance, but when re-
publicans are ready to acknowledge
that the system which their party has
established and maintained is a vicious
one, and that radical change is neces-
sary; when they are ready to admit
that we need an American system that
shall be entirely independent of all
other nations, and that it should sup
ply an adequate amount of currency,
there is hope for the people. There
should be no difficulty in getting to-
gether upon basis of that kind and
employing the best financial ability in
the land, in formulating the details Of
the new system. (Kan.) Advor

BEAR THIS IN MIND.

Nations that Are Not in Debt Are Not
Concerned About the Standard Of
Value.
A nation which, as a government Ii
not in debt, it's bonds not being held by
foreign nations, need not concern itself
about what the so-called 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
$115, 600, 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
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 whet Their foreign
nations have as standa I'd gold idol,
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
anything, pay it in gold or silver bull
lion, without disturbing our volume of
domestic currency.

THE BASE FOR MONEY.

lnconvertible Paper Money Needs No
Base but the Legal Tender Attribute.
At a late meeting held in Topeka,
Kan, to discuss the silver question ad-
dresses were made by Joseph Marshall,
w. H. Bennington, Aajutant-General
Artz, G. c. Clements and Messrs Corn
ing and Hackworth. Resolutions were
introduced by Mr.. Bennington and
adopted favoring the demonstration of
gold and the substitution of paper for
both silver and gold. The following
are the resolutions in full:
Whereas The monetary, commercial and in
dustrial world Is on the verge of tumult and
eruption: therefore be it
Resolved. If silver cannot be restored to its
supersutiOus and constitutional position as
money and allowed to circulate par with
gold, at a ratio Of Is to 1, or unless some other
kind of money is substituted to take the place
OF both gold and silver, general bankruptcy is
inevitable
Resolved further. That if silver cannot be re-
monetized, gold should be demonetized and pa.
per substituted for both gold and silver
Resolved. further, That the gold trust and
money brokers, by rejecting or attempting to
reject one OF the precious metals, have taught
and proved to the people that both may be re.
jected, and that this conspiracy of contraction
Is Grim. against the commercial and indus
trial world as the unprecedented failures of
each succeeding day abundantly prove. And
be it further
Resolved. That this is progressive age: an
age in which the steam engine has displaced
the ox-cart, and electricity cements continents
and makes six months Journey in twinkle,
and that the use Of gold and silver are on their
journey to the mechanical and fine arts where
they belong, and that the though t of using them
as a base for money is being relegated to the
dark ages Of ignorance and supersi tion where
it originated We believe that all the goli and
all the silver plus all the cattle and all the
land-al wealth and the integrity OF the Amer
lean people, are better bases for money, than
are simp gold and silver
The words base and s'basis'' are
relic of financial barbarism. Full legal
tender, inconvertible paper money, is
sued by a great and wealthy nation like
the United States, needs no basis - but
the sacred promise of it's citizens, sew
orally and collectively, as a nation and
as individuals, to receive such money
in payment of all debts, both public
and private. This is the essence of le-
gal tender.
The representative. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1893-1901, 1893-07-26

in it's fullest and widest sense. Our
country is not dependent for an ample
and sound currency on either silver or
gold, recommendation or bimetallism.
They cannot furnish the motive
power to keep the vast machinery of
the worlds commerce in motion with
out, at times of financial strain, caus-
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.
Let the government retain this mon
ey-making power as it's sole preroga-
tive, delegating said power to no cor
porate body or private institution.

and this is NINE. H. Latimer, in

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 little puff that comes along
and there is not gold enough in sight
to physic a snipe, if it was all turned

thing in the big cities that is saving

We are told that Silver and gold
was the money of Isaac and Jacob, sew
eral thousand years before the Chris
tian era. True enough, and in those
days the grist of wheat was ground be-
tween the upper and neither mill stone
by the hands of the women of that
time and the water was drawn from

wheat different, use other appliances
with which to raise water, and in other
directions have made some improve

in the matter of money. Oberlin (Kan.)
