OF the most conservative and careful

has this to say concerning the reviv-
al OF mill interests, which is the out
come OF Democratic influences: "The
wages of over 600, 900 mill operatives
in the different industries have been
voluntarily raised within a few
months. That is better than all the
strikes have done in five years. Not
only that, but the pleasant relations
between employed and employer have
been maintained, and the raise in
wages is "clear profit" to the work.

grasping individual that he is pic
tured to be by those who make their
living by melting their fellow men to
acts Of violence and lawlessness. AS

give those who assist him in making

PENNIES IN GREAT DEMAND.
Philadelphia Mint Is Turning Out
450 600 a Day.
Supt. Preston Says 1t Indicates n
Great Revival In Business-The
Tides of Money.

During the month OF December Supt.
Preston OF the Mint Bureau has had a great
increase or business in the coming Of
pennies. Nine presses have been kept at
work In Philadelphia from O'Clock a.. m.
unal 3 O'Clock y. M, turning out bronze
cents at the rate of $4,000 a day.
what does this unusual demand for
pennies mean?" was asked of Mr.. Preston.
1t means great revival In business
said the superintendent. The use OF the
people are spending money"
but will there not be a redundancy after
a little?'
ON, yes, as soon as the holiday trade is
over We will begin redeerning. We take
back the pennies, clean them UP, and re-
issue them
Can yol tell anything about the course OF
trade by the issuance OF pennies?''
Yes, certainly: Last year 100000
pennies went to New York, 100000 to
Illinois, 100000 to Massachusetts. 300
900 to Ohio, and SO on. You see. Ohio
doesn't begin to do the small business
Illinois does. And Chicago was not in
cluded in that shipment. as she has a sub:
mint OF her own
How about the West and the South?''
They have both begun to use pennies.
Formerly the West used no small coins. but
nickels and pennies are now beiiDG quite
commonly used there"
And Is there any one cause that con-
tributes directly to the use or pennies?''
1.-The penny in the-slot machines, very
greatly; also the nipety-nine-cent stores"
The ninety -nine-cent stores, Mr.. Preston
explained, were the most largely RESPONSE
BILE, as every sale demands the use or four
pennies.
