Canaigre.

A writer on science in the Chicago Record says: It is proposed to under take the culture of canaigre on large scale in America. The value of can aigre as a tanning medium is settled and it is daily coming into greater de- mand. It has long been known in Mexico, both for it's tanning and med icinal properties. It grows well In Mexico, New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, both CalIfornias, Utah and the Indian territory. The demand for tannin all over the world is very large. In every continent new tannin-containing plants ase being sought, for the pres ent sources of supply threaten to run out. Most American feathers are tanned with oak and hemlock barks and extracts, and considering that there is further serious drain in the exportation of large quantities of oak and hemlock bark to Europe, even Americas most boundless forests of oak and hemlock must eventually fail to meet the demand. But America act ually buys large quantities of tannin from other countries at the present time. In 1891 l5,0O0 tons of gambler were imported into tms country, the value of which was sl,500,000. This efflux of capital can be entirely saved, for many practical tanners say that cansigrc is destined soon to replace gambler. Dr. Von Schroeder states that canaigrc is rich in tannin; that 1t dissolves and gives out its acid, even in cold water and that which 1t does not give out can easily be drawn out by hot water or steam extraction. By grinding the dry roots or plant one gets very good material to mix with tanning barks oak hemlOck etc. Can aigre gives leather soft, bright color, often a clear bright orange. It Is especially suited to upper, saddle and fancy feathers, which come out when treated by 1t, full, smooth and with a
 good grain. It's great recommendations
 are the large ammount of tannin 1t
 contains, the ease with which it dis
 solves in water, the presence of 8 sui
 icient acid-producing element, and
 the beautiful color, touch and grain that it gives. If it should prove pos
 sible to produce canaigre in America
 in large quantities at fair prices, 1t
 will certainly sell, not only here, but
 all over the world.

4 new enterprise has been started at Phnnix in the shape of q ChIldrens Aid Association of Arizona. It's object is to grant lie insurance to children hstween the ages of five and twenty one years. The rates will be low ana So arranged that children may be in dnced to save at least part of their spending money by procuriug policies upon their,liveS. On attaining maJo- rity those insured will be paid the ammonnt of their policies in full, and thus have something with which to begin the battle of life. As teaching habits of prudent thrift and economy the scheme of the soclcy is well worth looking into closely by all our young people.

The Issue Stated.

Congressman R. r. Bland Of Mis- souri. the undoubted silver leader ol the lower house, has an article in the North American Review for May, m which be comments, kindly but con vincingly, on the veto Of the seignor- sge bill. This comment states most concisely and clearly the point at is- sue between the bimetallsts and mo- nome..aI!sts. He says:
 "Tho veto of the seigniorage bill, for the reasons stated in tho prcsi- dents message that Is to say, that no further silver coinage Is practicable unless the coinage Is safe-guarded by an issue of bonds to procure gold to nut behind the silver dollar-makes the issue plain and direct between the advocates of the single gold standard and the friends of bmetallism.
 "No such thing as bimetallisn ex- i.ts where one metal is made the sole standard. The standard Of money, or The money of ultimate redemption, must rest on both metals, or there IS no meaning to the word bimetaiilsm. Yet blmetall;sm does noi mean two standards, but rather an alternative tandlrd. Indeed It's logical analysis Is that the standard rests upon the combined mass of both gold and silver xoney. The presidents veto, how ever, states the condition of the gold standard, which tacitly admits there Is not sufiicency of gold to go around, or to supply the needs of currency, either in the coin itself or the paper representative issued thereon. dollar for dollar.
 ITO make tolerable the gold stand ard, there must be very large over issue of paper money, which, to keeE the parity, must be redeemed in gold But there can be no increase of this representative money without q cor responding increase of the gold reserve which requires increased bonded debt This bonded debt must necessarily m crease from time to time, in order t' supply the demand for gold by thu holders of the credit notes, as well a. to secure any further increase of tho circulating medium. Any one at glance must see that here IS an endless chain of gold drainage from the treas nry, and the resulting effect more bond issues. Bonded debt can thui be piled on the taxpayers without any limit. Such system Is prepos terous and ought not to be tolerated.
