They Want Southern Caiifornians to Travel
North With Them
Notwithstanding the religious proclivi-
les of the Half Million club, some of it's
members did not attend church yester-
day. Their minds were more centered
upon the unities of earth than the har.
monies Of heaven.
The treatment they have received at
the hands of Los Angeles and Southern
California during their stay and the re-
suits Of their efforts have not only con-
WINGED them of the wisdom OF their mis-
sion. but encouraged them to do still
more.
At hastily called committee meeting
it was decided to extend invitations to
each city OF Southern California to send a
representative man as the guest of the
Grub around the state with the excursion.
In accordance with this, Chairman w.
M. Bunker was authorized to commune
cate with the proper authorities and in
duce them to delegate someone to accept
the inequalities of the occasion.

NEW PEST KILLERS
Professor koebeIe Has Discovered Several
Valuable Parasites

San Francisco Examiner: From r.
ports received by B. NJ. Lelong. secretary
of the state board of horticulture, from
Professor Koebele, it appears that the
latter has recently made great Roadway
in discovering useful parasites that are
pest fighters in Hawaii and Australia. He
intends shortly to forward colonies of his
newest bugs militant to the sta'e
board to be placed at several experimental
stations in the state.

board yesterday. gave him a reputation
that was not agreeable to the heads of the
chronological department at Washington.
He was accused of being too friendly 10

leveled against him.

Fought for Booze

NJ. s. Polaski sent wagon to the race
track yesterday morning after the hard
booze and beer that was not consumed by
the patrons of the races last week. AS the
two expressmen were loading up their
wagon crowd of hobos appeared and de-
manded that they be given drink. This
was refused them. and the hobos began
an onslaught on the expressmen that re-
suited in their utter routing. Then the
victorious party helped themselves while

Such a system would give us q
currency, stable, elstiac and just to
all.
The friends OF the gold standard
claim that international commerce
can only be carried on by means Of
this standard; they fail to see that
for international transactions,
which are always on a large scale,
bullion will answer all purposes.
1t should also be considered that,
II we use cheap material where 1t
will answer the purpose just as
we'll and sometimes better than a
costly one, we certainly act in &C
cordance with economic principles;
what would be thought of a mer-
chant who should use scales made
out of gold? II a $40 bill were to
be dropped into the ocean, then
the owner would lose ten dollars,
but the national debt would not be
diminished; il, however, a gold
piece had thus been lost, wealth
would have been lost by the indi-
vidual owner and also by the ma
ton. In similar way thousands
OF wealth are daily destroyed by
the wear of gold coin.
1t is against all sound reason
that while the structure of com.
merce and industry is constantly
growing into more and more gigan-
tic dimensions, we should reduce
it's foundation, which is the real
money, by one-half.
From statement of the United
States treasury department of June

Under a gold standard system.

Under q gold standard system,
with the $57S,036,04l in gold coin
named above we should have only
about SIS "money in fact;" all the
other tokens, socalled money, being
but promises to pay in gold coin.
II we consider that besides these
public promises there are also
countless sums represented in pri-
vate checks, notes, ETC., which are
all footing on, and are largely out
OF proportion to the sum of "money
in fact" then it is easily under
stood how the withdrawal of gold
through an unfavorable balance Of
trade can create panic, which
must be made still more acute by
the general craze to hoard just
then as much gold as possible.
1t is evident that by making
gold again what it originally was,
simply a commodity in which men
may have their money redeemed,
as in any other commodity, at
market price and divesting 1t of
the great prerogative to be the
only "money lin fact" gold would
be put back on its natural merits
and would cease to become more
necessary or valuable and more
costly all the time; an attribute
which makes it unfit for a stand.
ard measure of costliness. Secre-
tary Carlisle in q speech emphasiz.
cd the fact that countries with a
silver standard had no gold coin
circulation, but that those with a
gold standard all used silver coin

prove that people can get along

not without silver coins, for re.
