AMONG the conspicuous instances of
bravery during the war contributed to
the Sunday issue of the GLOBE was one
by Mr.. Morse. who. as manufacturer
of well-advertised stove polish, and as
the recipient of some elegant polishing
by his fellow representatives in con-
gress, has achieved some notoriety. He
is as Indifferent, however, to the de-
tails IN this narrative as he is in his
tariff arguments. He says that when at
Camp Bisland, Gen. Banks rode to the
front with his staff. and a cannon ball
from the enemy's batteries struck the
ground in front of them and covered
them with dirt, the general "simply
brushed the dirt from his whiskers."
Gen. Banks wore no whiskers during
his command of the Department of the
Gulf, luxuriant mustache being the
only hirsute adornment of his face.
Gen. Butler, whom Banks super-
seeded in the command of that depart-
ment, has the reputation of bravery, bur
he never yentured out III the streets Of
New Orleans unless attended by
guard, while from the day Banks took
command until relieved, not even an Or
DERBY attended him in public, and the
writer has frequently met him taking a

THE Michigan salary-grab scandal is
to be taken before the grand jury, where
it is proposed to fix the responsibility
for classifying the returns on the consti-
tutional amendment which reduced the
salaries of officials generally throughout
the state. The evidence upon which the
charges rest is sufficiently conclusive to
convince any unprejudiced person that
fraud was committed in the interest of
the officeholders, and if guilty they
should be punished i'll due course of
law. A proceeding by indictment is
preferable to legislative Investigation,
for the latter is almost Invariably con-
trOlled by partisan considerations, and
decision from such a tribunal has no
binding legal or moral effect.

BoURKE COCHRAN has made dis
covery which should immortalize him.
In speech in the house on Tuesday he
declared, relative to the income tax
proposition, that 1.-The rich will not feel
it. They will welcome it, because it
will make them class in this country
If Mr.. Cochran is right, there should be
no opposition to the income tax; but,
unfortunately, he IS wrong, and the
strongest opposition comes from the
class which, he asserts, Twill welcome
it." If MIR. Cochran has discovered a
solitary individual who welcomes the
tax gatherer he should trot him out for
the inspection of the public. Such a
person could make an independent
fortune by exhibiting himself as freak
at the dime museums.

WHAT IS MONEY!

the realm or of the country
Inc standard Of payment, wheth
er OF coin, circulating notes o.
any other commodity. Any.
thing which freely circulates
from hand to hand, as com
mon, acceptable medium Of ex-
change, III any country, is, in
such country, money, even
though it cease to be such, or to
possess any value in passing in
70 another country. In word,
an article is determined to be
money by reason Of the per-
Torrance by it OF certain func-
tons, without regard to its form
or substance.
Baron Storch terms money the
marvellous instrument to which
we are indebted for our wealth
and civilization. Mr. Harold
Rogers has said: "Just as the
development of language is es-
sential to the intellectual growth
OF a people, 20 is a medium Of
exchange to civilization Aris-
totle says of it that sit exists
not by nature but by law
How true is this doctrine, or
at least, how patent is the law,
under a civilized government, in
imparting the quality of accept
ability for the payment of debts
and the purchase OF commodities
to that which it recognizes as
money, is clearly proved by the
operation of the Bank of Venice
during several centuries through
out which time its deposits,
which were never payable, but
only transferable on the books
OF the bank, were at premium
over coins, because they were
the standard OF payment furnish
ed by the trade and used for all
large transactions. Indeed this
bank money was that which es-
tablished the money of account
and in which the value OF all
coins was expressed.
Very dissimilar substances
have been made to serve as mon
ey. The Jews in addition to
their ordinary money Of shekels,
talents and draehms of silver,
had jewel money. Cattle were
used as money in ancient Greece,
and in Rome tin was coined by
Dionysius 1. And Roman and
British tin coins are known to
exist. Leaden money is now
current in the Burman empire.
Plantinum was coined in Russia
from 1918 TO 1885. Pompilius,
king of Rome about 700 B. c.
made money both of wood and
of leather. In 1874, when the
city Of Leyden was beseiged by
the spaniarsls, leather was is
sued. In the fifteenth century,
China used the middle bari. of a
mulberry tree as money, cutinto
round pieces and stamped with
the mark of the sovereign. In
Britain, as late as the Norman
Conquest, two kinds of money
were in use known as living
money and as dead money.
The former consisted of slaves
and cattle, which were usually
transferred with the soil, and |
the latter metal.
When the South Sea Islands |
were discovered, the natives first |
exchanged their products with
the Europeans for beads or any
thing gaudy, which was offered
them, but they soon discovered
the value Of iron utensile, and
they freely exchanged anything
they had for axes, hammers and
nails, etc. Axes eventually
were held in such estimation,
that they became a standard OF
.nsyment, and the basis of a

DISCUSSION OF THE TARIFF.
A Letter Out Of Our Line. Rut Jnter
QAfinr

Edltor observation-disclosures the cour-
tesy of a friend in Austin Mimi, / receiy-
ed copy of your valuable paper and was
agreeably surprised with it's tone and char
dcter' ana would say that l am in full
sympathy with the sentiments your naner
represents.
Last winter I organized a club. which
consists OF 40 members now, and we have
our meetings every month and discuss the
important issues of the day. At our next
meeting we choose delegates to the mass
convention to be held at Waterloo on the
fourth OF July, to put in nomination a
candidate for representative to congress.
FOR ~ years voted with the Republican
national issues and hence for a protective
tarlff, which the leaders said was necessary
70 protect our American industries from
lorelgn competitions; also to protect the
American laborer This all sounded very
patriotic, and hence l voted for it without
giving the subject any thought as thous-
ands OF other people did in this country.
lney further said that protective tariff
was paid by the importer, and was no adj
ntlonal tax on the consumer When 7
came TO study and analyze this subject for
myself | soon found that it was a fraud
ana imposition upon the people. Any tariff
on the productions of labor must be paid
by the consumer Nothing can be farther
from the truth than that a protective tariff
enhances the price of labor. The price of
labor, like every other commodity is reg
uiated by supply and demand There is no
question in political affairs better settled
than this The result of the protective
policy of the past 80 years has been to
concentrate the money and wealth of the
nation into the hands Of a few: absorbing
1t from the masses and creating an I'M
equal distribution of wealth among the
people This has given the few control of
legislation which has been constantly exer-
clsed in their own interest, resulting in the
poverty and slavery of the laboring masses
1t must be quite evident to every thinking
man there can be no hope of redress from
either OF the old parties, for they are abso-
Iutely under the control of the money
EoWer of the country. There can then be
no hope for the redemption of the people
except through the development of a new
party.
Uniting Populists. Single Takers, Free
traders and all labor organizations which
would form a combination that would
sweep the field and give the people relief
from the bondage that now enthralls them
But there must be union of the laboring
masses, if they succeed; for they have
the money power of this nation and Eng
land pitted against them Omitted we
stand, divided we fall If every man would
vote as he feels today the country would
be safe Fraternally yours,

Pleased With Our Paper.

Editor REORGANIZATION me to say
through your paper that all who read The
Representative are well pleased with it. 1t
gives the plutes some terrible WhackS
across the small of the back | hope that
the grain growers convention will de-
wise some way in which the immense pro-
fits of the middle man will be eliminated.
Just think of it, all the old party organs
and demagogues hollering themselves
hoarse about overproduction. and people
starving We produce so much that people
have to walk hundreds of miles. through
country full of eatables that the only
way to get a bite at it is to get TO one of
the edges.
Here we are, one of the greatest people
on the face of the earth, led by band of
unscrupulous brigands. They will not give
us money enough to do our business But
in accordance with Mr.. Horr of the New
York Tribune, we should make our money
go a little faster around, and it will do
the business there is to do The trouble
is, the money goes too d-n fast as it does.
and when it comes in the way of those
bright, shnging lights of the financial
armament it stops. If the money was
equitably distributed would not hear a
word of overproduction hard times,
either. Now, / do not want to be under
stood as saying that all the money in the
United States should be taken and divided
equally. not by any means. But let those
who earn the most pay taxes in proportion
to their net income AS it now is, poor
farmer pays 10 times as large, if not more.
in proportion to his income than the great
business men do. Let congress pass a law
taxing all securities of whatever descrp-
ton and all moneys at their face value.
Then and not before will the taxes be
levied honestly.
The Republican leaders claim that the
present hard times are due to tariff legis-
lation, because, they say: What sensible
business will import goods when a
party is in control that has been elected to
lower abolish the tariff? Better wait
and import goods till the tariff is taken
off the goods and we will not lose any
thing" Now brethren, Mr.. Mckinley says
the foreigner pays the tariff. Senator Nor
rill, of Vermont. says: Every foreigner
who sends goods to these United States has
to pay that tariff
Now if that is true, that the foreigner
pays the tariff, how the business man
is taken off which we know it will not be.
Now anyone who will claim such an abb
surdity as that, the hard times we are hay
ing is due to tariff tinkering has more brass
than a brass monkey. What / believe is
that if most of the tariff done away
with it would be help to a good many,
but long as the expenses of the govern
ment has to be supplied a tariff tax is as
easy borne as any if levied right.
Hoping you may have a booming conven-
ton, and nominate men who are honest to
our principles, l remain yours fraternaly,

WHY NOT.
Hector, June !

Why not levy and collect a tax for ma
tional expenses from each state in pro-
portion to their wealth. each state treas
urer to pay to the United States treasurer
in the same manner as our county treas
urerS pay state tax to state treasurer?
Then the foreign and other capitalists who
now grasp the wealth of this nation would
have to pay their just share of ma
tional expenses. 1t would be impossible 10
devise a more unequal, unjust and oppres-
sive method of taxation, a more prolific
source of legislative corruption than our
tariff Jaws.
Protective tariff is the way
Our rights and liberties to slay.
To change Gods blessings to a curse
And ever rob the poor mans Purse.
And let rich corporations take
All that the toilng millions make
Our present deplorable condition is the d.
rect result of tariff laws; therefore
they will and must be repealed, either by a
better class of legislators or by a revolu-
ton Our struggling millions will not
much longer submit to be plundered and
oppressed by a plutocratic government.
Direct taxation and free trade with every
nation that would reciprocate would COM
pei the milionaires to bear their just pro-
portion of our national expenses. For we
would have all tariff collected from the i'm
ports of all other than free trade nations
divided amongst the states in proportion to
population and the state distribute to
each county, and the county to each city
town and township, by them to be expend-
ed for work the public roads. This
would give employment to many. Money
would gradually become more evenly dis
tributed and in few years we would be
nation on the globe.
Ever yours to help the struggle.
