This so-called remedy will only
make our financial troubles more acute.
Such a tremendous contraction of III
legal tender money will lower prices
still further and add tenfold to the
business depression that has been grad
ually deepening and increasing ever
since u minis were closed to silver.
Nevertheless the money power is be-
hind it, the administration is working
actively for it, and it may be that the
representatives of the people can be in
duced to sell them out again, just as
they were sold out in 1S93.-Atlanta

I" Best Money.

The Boot and Shoe Recorder, a Bos
in a recent issue contains the following
editorial utteranceS:
"The simple fact is that best money
means nothing more nor less than low
est prices, and lowest prices cannot pos
sibly mean anything else than depres-
sion in industry and %stagnation in bust
ness. Legislation that would restore
the use Of silver as money here and in
other countries would double the
amount of money and make the whole
vancing profits just rs positively as
disuSe of silver has brought nor val
liable money and declining prices. AS
long as the mOney-lending financial
ideas are in control we cannot look for
q change in this direction.
'The only prospect for relief in sight

the only chance for getting q less val
liable currency with advancing prices.
is from the increasing production Of
gold, and from this cause, as we have
previously pointed out, there is reason
to be hopeful of good results. But the
change cannot come at once. 1t will
take time to develop the mines and
get out the gold, and even with the
large production of 5000, 600. 900 in gold

over. We may get some measure of re-
lief from tariff changes which will tend
to advance prices again, but this would
be only temporary IS long as the gen
eral movement of the worlds currency
tends to make it more valuable or
better as u tinanciers express it.
1T is no answer to say that this argu-
ment could be carried to an extreme
and that a currency Of copper or tin or
iron would be cheaper and therefore
bring more prosperity. We could SIM
ply ask how the other extreme would
work with a currency of diamonds or
some other metal of which only a few
pounds could be supplied. We are
arguing Oil the existing conditions and
in a business way, and the only COM
mon sense business conclusion must be
that the movement in the direction of
better or more valuable money as a
measure Of values must be stopped be-
fore there can be any confidence or as
surance or profit in business opera
tons. We may have spurts in differ
ent lines and changes due to what
might be termed local causes but in
dustry as a whole cannot prosper as
long as declining prices destroy all
chances of profit for the men who must
take the lead in all various branches of
wealth production. In so far as the re-
cent great gold discoveries tend to this
result there is promise and hope for
the future

For Restoration.

There Is an amazing degree of mis-
understanding of the real attitude of
the farmers and manufacturers of the
country on the silver question. This
misunderstanding prevails in the West
to a degree positively alarming and
dangerous to the cause. 1t cannot be
repeated too often that the information
we get V the wires from the East
or through the metropolitan newspapers
Of the East are Subservient to the in
f1uenceS of the advocates of the single
gold standard, because, in fact, they
are, in the main, the property of the
advocates Of the single gold standard.
For this reason, Western people should
never look to the associated dispatches
OIL to the editorials of the Eastern news
paper press to ascertain the attitude Of
anybody on the silver question.
1t has been stated before, but cannot
be repeated too often, that the asso-
ciated press falsified it's reports Of the
action of the farmers national congress
at Atlanta N the silver question. The
course that the delegates in that con-
gress pursued was precisely the con-
trary to what the associated press re-
ported. and was everything that the
most ardent friends of the silver cause
could ask.
To know the real attitude of the
farmers and manufacturers of the
whole country on this question, one
must seek Information from the middle
classes, who compose the masses of
farmers and manufacturers. It is O
fact which a thorough Investigation
will sustain, that among the farmers
and manufacturers In the whole region
east Of the Missouri River nine out of
ten are in favor Of the restoration of
silver coinage.

written for The Herald

Teddy Roosevelt, the man who has
ripped the police department of New
York wide open and turned it upside
down in a very short space of time, has
no political axe to grind. He is not
working for future recognition when
fine offices are to be distributed. In
fact, he says that just as soon as a
man begins to consider the effect of his
actions on his political future, he loses
his public usefulness.
A day with Mr.. Roosevelt is about
the busiest day that can be spent in
New York these hot times. This young
man, who has been called the Dude
Commissioner" knows no rest. The
hottest day does not worry him. He
goes right ahead working and showing
his teeth This latter is no figurative
bit of speech. 1t is literal. His fine
white teeth, which glisten and shine
all day long, are known and feared by
each one of the three thousand and odd
of the police force. Teddy and his
teeth is an awful combination in Null
berry street.
It's a difficult matter to say when
Mr. RooseVelt's day begins. Often he
works right on from midnight of one
day into the next. He has set a terri
BILE example for the rest of the easy
going, luxury loving Office-holding
world of the city 1t was a strange
thing in the old days if any police COM
missioner would average throughout
! the week more than two hours work a
day. Sixteen TO twenty hours is Roose-
velts average.
An ordinary day is begun by this I'M
usual president of the police board at
7 a. m, when he flashes into the big
building on Mulberry street. Like a
streak of lightning the news darts into
every ear in every room, on every floor,
that Teddy is on deck, teeth, eyeglass-
es, energy and all.
DeIuged With Threats.
The clerk who manages the mail of
the most talked about man in New
York has no sinecure. Roosevelt
likes to begin the day by going over
these letters. There is as much excite
ment in them as a cow-punching, a
trade in which the head of New York S
police excels. It's an off day when less
than fifty threatening letters are re-
ceived. These come mainly from the
hangers-on of saloons and the small
fry criminal classes generally. Roose-
! Welt has driven the eight thousand and
odd owners of saloons we'll nigh crazy
by his Sunday crusade against them,
and as such proprietor has at least six
welt has a fine brigade of $4,000 men
pitted against him. This, of course,
represents only one division of the
grand army of his enemies. In round
numbers there are about 100000 per-
sons in New York who would smile if
he were dropped into the river some
dark night. But against this quarter
of a million there are more than mil
lion and a half of people who are with
him up to the hilt.
He is Fighter.
In eight cases out of ten the letters
received by Roosevelt are anonymous.
That is the reason the threats do not
worry him. 1t is a question whether
they would cause him any disquiet if
they were signed. He lived in the
western country with bad men, on
all sides of him for a long time, and
always held his end up. He is an adept
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-07-28

reforrner, but he doesn't indulge in the
luxury of theOrizing unless honesty
and sound business methods are TO be
classed as theoretic. He knew nothing
about running a police department
when he took the helm. He makes his
plans as he goes along and learns. He
is manipulating the machinery OF the
force to suit local conditions. This is
the foundation of his plan: Find out
the local condition in each precinct
and then adapt the police work to suit
them. In many respects Roosevelt mas
shown the Byrnes regime to be a farce
comedy, particularly as to the sup
preston of disorderly resorts and the
enforcement of the excise law.
How He ROams at Night.
Roosevelt usually remains at head
quarters until 6 o'clock. Then. II It 1s
to be one of his roaming nights, ne
starts for one of his many clubs where
he dimes and reads until 10 o'clock.
About this time the policeman is be-
ginning to feel tired. There are fewer
people on the streets, and he can in
dulge in restful violations of the dis
cipline laws with little chance of dis
cOVery. At least he could do so before
Roosevelt adopted such unholy habits
of prowling about all parts of the city
at night unearthing the uniformed de-
luQuGHlS.
Can't Tell Where He VIII Strike.
1t may be in Harlem that the com
missioner will strike like a bolt of
lightning Or it may be the far West
Side, or the downtown slums of the
East Side, or perhaps in the turbulent
quarters of 'Hells Kitchen" where
the occupants amuse themselves by
dropping bricks and heavy household
utensils upon the heads of passing po-
licemen. 1t is safest to walk in the
middle of the street at night time in
this section. a fact which many police
men have learned. There is less dan
ger of being ambushed by ambitious
thugs. No one knows where the COM
missioner viii strike, but he has al
ready worked so much damage TO the
heretofore spotless records that the po-
licemen have created a system of sig
nails by which they inform one another

the course that 1 recommend. Amongst
honest men it ought not to be difficult
TO find means to this end.
In case the Tories as IS now prOba-
bic will come in with a large majority.
the home rule movement will receive
a considerable setback; and as has
ever been the case the younger and
more enthusiastic element will
begin to despair of success on
constitutional lines. They will
have their attention turned to
methods of conspiracy for the pur-
pose of bringing about a revolution in
ireland. Then there will be the usual
crop of informers, prosecutions, stale
trials, imprisonments and possibly
hangings, with the inevitable retalia-
lions. Then perhaps the English pae-
pie will wake up again and see the ne
cessity of satisfying the national as
pirations of the Irish people by con-
ceding those measures Of justice that
should have been gracefully yielded
years ago.
For my part I have no doubt that
in opposition, the national elements in
Ireland will prove more united tnan
they have been with their friends. the
Liberals in power; and when this state
of things comes about, which | believe
it will very soon, the spirit which ami
mated the Irish element in America
ten or fifteen years ago will be re-
vived. Every prosecution and impris-
onment in Ireland will bring in lib
eral aid from American sympathizers,
while every hanging and every arbi-
trary exercise of Tory brutality will,
in all probability, bring to England
once more consignmentS of American
dynamite. This, of course, is i state
of things that every right thinking
man should deplore, but every student
of Irish history must recognize the
grounds for the prediction"

Tory book. but their continued re-
straint even in the presence of provo
cation and excitement furnished by the
Tory party itself will be an excellent
opportunity to again demonstrate the
intelligence and capacity of the Irish
people for discharging the responsible
ties claimed by them and which were
granted by the vote of the House of
Commons.
No great measure ever passed a

mons but eventually reached the stat

Roosevelt used to box regularly every
morning in an uptown academy. and
soon outgrew the other members of the
school. He put too much steam in his

board. The craftsman had hard mus
cles and thought at first it would be
great sport to polish off the dude. But
il wasn't The dude could fight. The
stonemason soon learned to respect the
smuggling abilities of the dude. They

nation he will get on the force. If he
doesn't he won't. Roosevelt likes him

things of the past.

that the Terror is abroad. What this

is doubtless worked with the aid of
saloon hangers-on, who are impressed
as messengers and sent flying about
the precinct on their mission of alarm
On his first nights tour Roosevelt
found only one policeman doing his
duty. Now it is hard to find one po-
Hceman not doing his duty. Whether
it is the result of the signal system
or an honest Improvement in the work
of the men is hard to say. 1t is prob
ably a combination of both.
The police have not taken kindly to
this prowling about by their chief, and
their friends are even more indignant.
Roosevelt runs the risk of serious in
jury during his wanderings. Not long
ago man who looked like Roosevelt
was mistaken for the commissioner by
a crowd of Harlemites. They tried to
mob him, but he escaped by feetness

But Roosevelt's nerve is good, and al
though he is not a big man, he is a
fighter. and there is a general impress
sion that when he is sleuthing at night
he goes well heeled
