world emanates from Populi3tic
sources, and was formulated Mt the re-
cent Washington conference of the Bi.
metallic league by Colonel Fiske, Of
Denver. The colonel wants the gov
eminent to issue $3.50, 900. 900 of non
interest treasury notes Of small denom-
nations, to pay for the construction Of
a federal railroad from Pittsburg to
San Francisco and, later, Of one from
Pittsburg to New Orleans. This, he
opines, would relieves existing distress
and likewise put into the peoples con-
troll two important Of trans
portation and travel.
a point not 90 clear is how such q
course would affect the interests Of the
existing trans continental railways, in
which millions Of dollars of American
money. much Of it the savings of men
who labor, is now invested; and on
which thousands of families are di-
rectly dependent for support. 1t like
wise does not explain where the wealth
that the people would invest In such
additional lines would get its proper
and reasonable retnrn, inasmuch az
nearly every one OF the existing
large transscontinental systems is
now heavily mortgaged bankru pit,
non-productive OF Interest charges
and in receivers hauds. These,
no doubt, are minor points which
present no noteworthy obstacles to
the mercurial Populistic mind; but
they nevertheless are items that the
prudent capitalist, when asked to in-
vest his cash, would ponder with the
utmost seriousness. It it be the gov
ernment's function to act d.
rectly as the employer of idle labor,
merely because that labor ia Idle, q
more promising course would be to

opportunity, "a soon as times brighten,
to release itself from an entangling al
lance.
Upon the whole, the scheme of Gem
sral Coxey, much rs that worthy has
been recently derided, commends itself
as preferable to this suggestion OF COL
onel Fiske. The Coxsy plan would at
least invest the nations money in some
thing of lasting value. The country
needs good wagon roads much more
earnestly than it needs multiplied lines
Of bankrupt steam railways. And If
the problem Of their construction could
be gone at with anything like prudent

Of silly billyism and vapid rhetoric. The
difficulty all traces back to a false con-

struggle for existence, it Ia the duty OF
