DIDN'T LIKE TIGHTS.
After Marriage Ray Malcolm
Thought skirts the Proper Thing.

Pretty Ray Malcolm, the actress who
has been playing leading male parts in
burlesque at Inmans Casino, Coney
Island, wasmarried a week ago to-day
to Oscar Schieck, Of Prof. Gleason's
horse-training show.
The event, while something Of a social
feature in theatrical circles, would have
attracted but passing notice, but for the
sudden and unexpected change II made
In Miss Malcolm's ideas of what was
the proper thing In the way of tights
and anatomical exhibitions on the stage
she seemed to experience a sudden
attack of modesty. When she appeared
last Thursday evening, down stage,
as the gay Prince of the piece, clad in
knee-long skirts, instead Of white silk
tights. the manager kicked.
Miss Malcolm, or Mrs. Schiek, said
she didn't think II at all nice to 20 be-
fore all those people" showing her legs
up to a pair of abbreviated trunks. she
was a married woman, and such exhi-
billions would in the future be reserved
for her husband.
The manager insisted that the part
called for tights, and II must be tights
or Miss Malcolm would be cut out of
the play. The actress finally gave in,
and continues nightly to show as much
of herself as formerly.

The Gold and Protection Policy

One of the ablest articles in July arena,
treating the vital questions oftopics of the
day, is entitled Accommodation and
Protection" by c. S. Thomson. We
quote few passages from this admirable
paper
'"The purpose of recommendation is to
enhance the value of credits by limiting
the volume the circulating medium. Its
adjustments made in the interest of the
annueitant and money lender are earn
estly declared to be for the protection and
benefit of the general public 1t imposes
on the debtor an additional bnrthen by
decreasing the price of his products and
labor, and taking more of both for the
liquidation of his debts than were nee
essary for that purpose when it was con-
tracted. 1t gives full control of financial
affairs of men and government to single
class. 1t makes money the object rather
than the instrument of commerce, and
harnesses all enterprise, all energy, all
business, all property, all the wealth and
all the labor of the land to the chariot of
the money changer. 1t is the capsheaf of
protectionisn, its choicest flower and
rarest fruit. 1t is worth all other forms
of protection combined for with it all
others may be continued or dispensed
with as selfishness or ambition NAV
demand.
So long as gold alone is invested with
the attributes of ultimate redemption the
supply of the worlds stock of money
must be ..wofully inadequate for the tran
saction of the worlds commerce and in
dustry. So long as this condition exists
the majority of the nations must suffer all
the horrors of monetary famine, and val
ues measured by the volume of circula-
ton must fall. So long as values fall, the
nations, actuated by the law of selfpres-
ervation, must resort to unnatural and
artificial methods for the arrest of the
general tendency, and for the acquisition
of revenue to balance the account of
receipts and expenditures. So long as
they are forced to do this, protection
must be requisite, aud efforts to reduce or
limit the range of taxation will be as
QuiXotic i'll results as the famous onset
against the windmills. We have Joined
the gold alliance; we have proclaimed
war against silver, the greatest part of
whose annual product is ours; we have
destroyed the option which makes BIZ
metallism automatic, and we stupidity
wonder why the tickle public which
shouted tariff-reform in 1892, now threat
ems us with political determination if we
dare to carry out the program it then
prepared. Verify our President is a famous
pilot but since he unshipped the rudder
and threw it overheard he must not conf
plain if the crew wonders where the wind
and tide will bear them. Did he suspect
nothing when his protectionist adversaries
united in one grand chorus of rejoicing
over the outcome of his financial policy ?"

A Challenge to EsteIla Bachman.

The editor of the Chicago Times adj.
vocating free school books by the State,
suggested that the policy, without
unreason, might 'be extended consid-
erably further than the providing of text
books; it might also include giving the
child its daily dinner and supplying it,
when not otherwise supplied, with suf-
ficient raiment to come and go to school
without peril to its health"
Estella Bachman, editor of the Letter
Writing Corps department of the Single
Tax Courier, selects the Times for a
target" and directs division of her
archers to ''show all the benefit of this
would go to the landlords, and that with
the single tax none of it would be
necessary"
We confess we would like to see Estella
make the attempt herself; and would be
willing to beta big apple, she can't adj
vance any reasonable argument i'll sup
port of her assumption. The MIDLAND
JOURNAL. will furnish reasonable space
tor the attempt. Her archers will let fly
their arrows freely, but from what we
have witnessed of their work, we are
satisfied that not one of them will go near
the mark. They will treat the Times to
rambling homilies on single tax principles
in general.

Reputation Before Us.

Extract from a recent speech
delivered in the U. S. Senate by
Hon. VIM. M. Stewart.
''Look at the foundation on which
your Savings Banks and your trust
companies rest. There are now in
this country in round numbers ST.
5OO,0O0,0O0 of securities held by
private banks, trust companies
and savings banks, used for the
purpose of acquiring interest to
their depositors.
"The investments in these secure
ties were made when the securities
were worth twice as much as they
are to-day. They have fallen 80
per cent since the investments were
made. How can the savings banks
that invested in securities when
they were so per cent higher liqui-
date to-day? The continued APP
probation of gold will shake the
foundation out of your savings
banks, and they must fall, and this
little clique of money power will
govern"
These are logical facts, and they
point as plainly to reputation,
bankruptcy and lower prices in the
Immediate future, as the gnomon of
the dial points to the hour when
the sunshines.
