STREET CORNER FINANCIERING.

FRIDAY HARBoR, May q, 1895.
EDITOR Islander
I send you what l heard about
the Finances Of the country in an
idle hour, spent on the street, in
the shade of the old shop on the
corner, listening to the wise who
daily meet there to instruct the
public in the science of money.
When I arrived the argument
was on silver and free coinage, also
how to get silver into circulation
(the Esquire had the chair) and a
stranger man with red whiskers Ct
think he was a bimetallist) said he
could tell them how to get silver
into circulation. He said if any of
them should happen to earn dol
lar they should demand silver in
payment; when they sold anything
demand silver in payment; if they
gave note, or received one, have
it made payable in silver; demand
of our senators and representa-
yes in congress, and in the state
legislature, state officers, county
officers, and all others doing bust
ness for the public, that they de-
mand their pay in silver (the ESQ.
observed that those were his senti-
ments exactly.) Tie red whiskered
man then proposed that they all
pledge themselves to always use
silver when possible, and that they
all go to the Bank and exchange
their gold and paper money for
silver, for a starter. No one started
for the bank, so the stranger man
said he guessed that they didn't
want to start silver into circulation,
but thought it was the poor mans
money, and he must 60 as the boat
was ready to start.

but that Jim Hill has secured con-
troll of the Northern Pacific railroad
system. Just what effect it will
have in regard to rates is hard to
tell, but as Hill is a progressive

A Way to Pay.
ence.

The Twentieth Century alludes to
the way the city of Humboldt, Kan,
paid off its bonds as a good criterion
for the people to be guided by in pay
ing off the fraudulent bonds recent
ly 'bargained by Cleveland to the
Rothschild gold syndicate. It says.
3As the time may not be far dis
tant when the people will repudiate
the bonds sold without their knowl
edge or consent, the experience of
Humboldt, a town in Kansas. may
be interesting. Sixteen years ago
bonds to the amount of $4,000
were issued for the purpose of build
ing railroad, and later a second is
sue to the amount of $4,000 was
made. The road was started and a
railway bank constructed. That was
all. A rail was never laid; locomo.
tive or a car never appeared, and the
people, fully alive to the situation, re-
pudiated the bonds. But the bond
holders? O! they put the machinery
of the law into motion, only to find
that in all.the city there was not an
Eofficial upon whom to serve a legal
document. For 16 years Humboldt
has been a prosperous city, full Of
happy inhabitants without a single
official to govern it. Officials have
been elected, but they ruled by the
consent of the people and have never
taken the oath of Office. In two years
more the debt will be legally outlaw
ed according to the law of Kansas.
The citizens say they wish to wrong
no one, and are willing to pay exactly
what the purchasers paid for the
bonds-about % cents on the dollar.
This the bondhoiders refuse, declar-
ing that they will have all or nothing,
which does not appear to worry the
inhabitants of this officerless city,"
