Result of a Gold Standard.

There are two elements which in
currency make third inevitable
Adopt a gold standard and make
the Government responsible for the
redemption of all the circulating

is the issuance of bonds.
Gold-grabbing is going on fercely

quent intervals the Government
which undertakes to furnish paper
money and to redeem it on demand
will be called upon to supply gold
for shipments and commercial uses.
No Government can maintain a
steady policy of piling up sur
plus revenue, because no people
will endure TO be taxed for no def
mite purpose. The only alternative
for Government which is respon.
sible for a gold standard currency
in gold grabbing times is to borrow
gold whenever the redemption stock
runs low, as it will frequently.
The lamentable spectacle of an.
other issue of $4,000, 900 in bonds
is only a new symptom Of the dis
ease called the gold fever.
The Republic believes that the
President is mistaken in supposing
that sound finance calls for this is
sue at present. But that is not the
essential mistake. The continu-
mice OF the gold standard Is the
blunder which brings the rest.
There is nothing in all finance

Afraid'of Them!

A fashionable lady was looking
at some fifth avenue apartments
the other day, says the New York
Sun, that for elegance and exclusive
ness are not to be equalled any
where in the city. None but the
rich, however can hope to enjoy life
in such.
She was particularly delighted at
the glimpse caught through an open
door of suite whose superb draw
ing room windows gave to the lucky
| occupant an extensive command
of the stately stretches of Fifth
avenue. She sought to enter, but
the janitor stopped her respectfully
but firmly.
"You cannot go in there, madame"
he said.
"Why not, pray?," haughtily /;
THE apartments are empty"
Quite right" observed the man,
with the deepest humility, "but al
though the tenant is away he has
given the strictest orders that no
woman shall ever be allowed to en-
ter his rooms. | may as we'll say
that during his possession no female
person has ever crossed the thresh-
old"
The lady turned without another
word and walked toward the eleva-
tor, followed by the protesting At
tendant. Her curiosity was aroused,
however, and she could notiforbear
another question which was to the
identity of this woman-hating ten
ant. The man mentioned name
we'll known in exclusive society
circles.
Il cannot imagine how lie could
ever order such thing" observed
the fair visitor incredulously.
well, ma'am, there's not even
scrub woman or house maid allowed
in there. All the cleaning is done
by his Wallets, and they tell me that
their master says all women are
devils, and that he'll keep 'em out
Of his living place if he has to hire
an army to do SO"
