WHY NOT2

Mr.. Carnegie, the great iron and
steel millionaire, and chief owner d
the works at famous Homestead, Pa
feelingly warns people against the In.
happiness of boarded riches. Mr.. Ca,
negie has unIoaded vast sums FRONT biz
own hoard in gifts in the building Of
libraries, etc. There is no denying hi,
liberality in this direction. But is not
this m%unifcence m~isdirected? Doesit
help the needy3 Would it not have
been better and infinitely more chart
able when the exigencies of business
forced low wages, or overwOrk al
Homestead, to have divided his profits
with his working people9 The building
of a million-dollar library is a COMES
sion that Mr.. Carnegie has gathered
much more than he ~needs-more than
he needs-more than he can use-and
that he wants relief from his burden
Then why not double the pay of de
serving men with families by divertine
his surplus into their pockets2
would relieve the anxie5ies of hundred
of fathers, make hundreds Of mother
cheerful, and give m oral training and
education to hundreds of neglected nt
hopeless children. Mr.. Carnegie thinks
rich men should administer on and dis
tribute their WI estates. What bet
ter mode could be found for such dis
tribution than that above suggested
not forgetting of course the claims o
wife and children.

A NATIONAL CURRENCY THE BEST.

In d speech in the Senate in 1887,
John G. Calhoun said:
at appears to me, after bestowing
the best reflection | can give no sub
iect, that no convertible paper-that
is, paper whose credit rests on a
promise to PAYS suitable for cur
rency. Bank paper is cheap to those
who make it, but dear, very dear, to
those who use it. On the other
hand, a national currencv, while it
would greatly facilitate its financial
operation, would cost nothing or next
to nothing, and would, of course,
add much to the cost of production,
which would give to every branch of
our industries great advantages both
at home and abroad. And | now
undertake to affirm without the least
fear ] can be answered, that a paper
issued 10y the government, with a
simple promise to receive it for all
dues would form a perfect paper cir
culation which could not be abused
by the government ; that it would
be as uniform in value as the metals
themselves; and | shall be able to
prove that it is within the constitu-
ton and lowers of congress to use
such paper according to the most
rigid rule of constituting the constitu-
ton" (tf.)

JEFFERSON AND JACKSON

We're Opposed to Banks .of Issue Both
State and National.
Andrew jackson it was who said.
IF congress has the right under the
constitution to issue paper money, it
was given them to be used by them
selves, not to be delegated to indivi
duals or banking corporations"
Thos. Jefferson it was who said
Bank paper must be suppressed,
and the circulating medium must be
restored to the nation to whom it be-
longs. 1t is the only fund on which
we can rely for loans, it is our only
resource which can never fail US, and
it is an abundant one for every neces-
sary purpose"
If you believe in the doctrine of
Jefferson and jackson and have the
manhood to back up your belief with
your votes, what party will you be
acting with to-davq If.

THE DEADLY PARALLEL.

of contradiction, that paper issued
by the Government with the simple
promise to receive it for all dues,
would be as uniform in its value as

"Our Government connot make

too; but read that, Sibley."
He drew the letter from its envelope.
and. flinging it across the table, sat
modify toying with the empty en-
velope. On the flap of it was the broken
impress of a martlet.
Sibley Fairbanks read the letter
flung across the table to him once rap
idly, then more slowly, and, as he read,
the bewildered contraction of his
brows grew more and more decided
Finally he looked confusedly across at
Dennis.

Nlnette Fairbanks, was taken to Glen

Lorimer's wife?"

| Dennis Lorimer leaned towards him
beseechingly:
Fairbanks, for Gods sake tell me
the absolute, the entire truth. Was the
woman who married my brother John
the mother of that child? Don't YOU
can't you see how black it all looks?"
For second Sibley Fairbanks looked
as if he were ready to return to the
family traditions and throttle this
slight boyish Lorimer front of him
Then he answered him with such fierce
earnestness that there was no doubling
his impetuous statement:

me for, Lorimer? When you asked me

The COZ troll of trade through the
of the currency or by
placing it in the hands and power of
a few Is the analogue of the control
of the supply of commodities through
the protective tariff. The principle
is the same. The man who under

cial policy is a protectionist at heart.
