joining the army.
WICHITA, Kan, Oct. ia dispatch
from the college town of Emporia
gives the details of a sensation there
among the faculty and students of the
state normal college. Recently the
Salvation army there got an eloquent
ex-cowboy leader. A party of normal
college girls attended his meeting at
the barracks recently and were in
duced to join the army. The next
night they brought more girls, and
this was kept up until the faculty of
the college attempted to put
a stop to it, when the senti-
mental girls raised the standard
of rebellion, claiming they intended to
exercise the constitutional right of
worshiping according to the dictates
of their cOnsciences. One of the lead
ing young ladies in the college an
nounces that she will give up her
school studies to join the army's slum-
ming brigade in New York. The fac
ulty is troubled and parents of the
pupils are making anxious inquiries.

THE FINANCIAL MISTAKE.
Views of Senator Carlisle Delivered to the
Reform Club at Boston.

Views of Senator Carlisle Delivered to the
Reform Club at Boston.
BOsToN, Oct. 14-At the dinner of
Massachusetts, Reform club Saturday
night Secretary Carlisle, who was the
guest of honor. said:
The first great mistake in our currency leg
iSlation was made in the act of March IL 1862
which authorized the secretary OF the treasury
to issue United States notes to the amount
OF sl5pO0).0O This was a radical and danger
Gus departure from true financial principles,
il not a serious infractiOn OF the legislation Of
the United States This deprecated paper, OF
course. expelled specie from circulation. but
as the government had not promised to redeem
it at any particular time, it subjected the
treasury department to no serious response
bility or inconvenience. That department
was invested with authority to issue
notes to circulate as money and
for the time being it was exempt from all re-
SpOnsibilty for their redemption. But since
the passage OF the act of MAY 81. 1878. and the
resumption Of specie payments on the first day
of January. i,19, the situation has entirely
changed. and the treasury department is not
now merely an agency for the issue OF
circulating notes, but is required TO pro-
vide for their redemption in coin. and to re-
issue them when redeemed. II thus appears
that the government has redeemed notes in
gold now to the amount Of S3S6OO0,01J and the
notes so redeemed are still outstanding and
may be presented for redemption over and
over again, so long as our legislation remains
in its present condition. My contention is that
the notes ought not to be kept outstanding, but
should be retired and Cancelled as speedily
as n sound and safe currency can be pro-
vided to take their places There can be
no financial repoSe in this country so long as
these notes constitute a part Of our currency,
because the fact that they exist cOmpels the
government to provide large gold reserve,
which in the very nature of things, cannot be
permanently maintained at any fixed amount
and whenever it begins to diminish, distrust
and apprehension arise in the public mind,
values are unsettled, business is disturbed and
more or less loss is entailed upon the people.
