The Dollar We Want.

It would be hard to find citizen
who hasn't had some suggestion to
offer during the past few months
as to just the kind of dollar that
would be most desirable to citizens
of the United States. Unless we
are very much mistaken thesdol-
lar that will prove most satisfactory
to every one of us is the dollar that
is easy to get and hard to let go; a
dollar that will pay four dollars
worth of debts and then come back
by means of a string attachment;
dollar that snuggles easy in the
socks of John Smith but withers
like the mama of old in the safe
of a railroad president; a dollar that
will buy some -four and meat while
it buys much whisky and tobacco;
dollar above drawing interest
and yet will double itself while the
owner sits in the shade and spits
at mark; dollar that will circu-
late without depreciation, will buy
shoes for the baby while it buys
fun for a man in places where he
can't take his wife; dollar that
viii surely repair the waste of sloth,
appetite and bad judgment; dol
lal that comes to the lap of indo-
lence like worms to the craw of a
fatherless robin; a dollar that
would remove the sentence pro-
nounced upon Adam, reverse the
order of nature, and transform the
nature of men. This is the kind
of dollar we want, and this is the
only kind of a dollar that will be
satisfactory to everybody. 1t mat
tiers not whether it be gold, silver
or greenback. Crowley Signal.
