THE MESSAGE.

Gives His Opinion of the Financial
Clause in the Recent Document Is
sued From the White House,
Cashier f. S. Raft of the Central Say
ings Bank, in speaking Of the financial
clause in the Presidents Message, said:
"The president recon mendatiUn that
the greenbacks should be retired Is wise
one and strikes at the very root of the
governments financial difficulties. Our
government should not undertake to
make any of it's obligations payable in
gold ON demand. Gold is not in sutfic-
lent supply to make redemption in that
metal possible without running great
risks and giving speculators the opportu-
nifty of trading on the governments ne
cessity. The supply of gold is limited
enough to enable it to be practically cor
nered at times, and che treasury has then
to buy it at the speculator's price Be-
sides, the same gold can be drawn out Of
the treasury by the same men who sell 1t
within the very hour Of its purchase. The
greenback system is absolutely vicious
| in that respect, as we'll as In the feature
that requires the notes redeemed to be
again paid out instead Of cancelled. That
provision of the law Is very faulty. No
| matter now much ROld Gne government
pays out in redemption its gold obliga-
tiOn are not thereby diminished a single
dollar. Now, If the greenbacks and treas
ury notes are retired, there will be con-
traction of tie currency Of about five
hundred millions, and the next question
is, What shall fill the voidp The silver
men say, with reason that silver In some
shape or other would be the most salts
factory means. Without discussing this
line of argument see no reason why our
country cannot succCs fully carry out a
BIZ metallic system of currency redemp-
tion. France is doing 1t without trouble,
and her example Is a good enough argu-
ment for me. However, the presidents
idea is to replace the greenbacks with ma
tional bank notes, and he outlines some
simple additional legislation which will
make his plan possible. l regard his
suggestions as entirely practical. The
national bank notes are a satisfactory and
stable system Of currency, and see nc
reason why their increase, as the presi-
dent suggests, would not be proper sub
stitute for the RreeDbaoks

The muscles Of a pigs snout are ex-

When falling, as out of a tree or

themselves into a close resemblance to
a huge hurry ball and thus escape

The mole is not blind, as many per-
