our national legislature. And if we take into account the persons in our midst of the highest average intelligence. we find that a large proportion of them are in capacitated both by inclination and by experience to discuss the currency ques- tion in a rational manner. This is not said to their discredit They feel that their relations in life do not call for ex pert knowledge of this subject on their part They leave such matters to the people whom they consider to be best fitted by the nature of their occupation to settle the money question. This is a very proper stand to take
 Of course, it will be obvious to the read CTS of the above that to our mind the currency question is properly a banking question, and not a government ques- ton. Theoretically, banks are simply business institutions. organized to fur nish, among other things, an adequate amount of money to transact the busi- ness of the community. This is the part which they ought to play in that division of Ia bor which is the great feature of modern civilization, and they should play it because a cheaper and better service would thereby be accorded the public. The banks have been accused by minimizing persons of being robbers, but this is an absurdity How many mer- cantile concerns would remain in busi- ness were there a certainly that the re- turns on the investment would be no larger than those netted by banks?

 United States Investor.
 Government never was, is not now, and probably never will be capable of proper ly exercising the money-issuing power. There is no more reason why the govern ment of the United States should supply the people with money than that it should supply them with shoes. Both are but means to certain ends, and in neither case can the end be so easily and effectually attained if the interference of the state is allowed. Money is em- ployed to facilitate trade. From time out of mind trade has been hampered rather than facilitated by the efforts of monarchs and legislatures to regulate the currency. With the establish ment of arbitrary ratios between the different forms of currency, the debas- ing of coins so often indulged in by kings of earlier days. and other pleasing at tempts to manipulate the circulating me dum to meet the whimS of the governing classes, the development of commerce has been attended with the greatest diff culties It was only when the people took matters into their own hands and invented bills of exchange, founded banks and devised other methods of ef- fecting the settlement of balances. that modern commerce may be said to have had a beginning.
 One reason why government cannot with safety be entrusted with the money issuing power. is that the relation of the supply of morey to the demand should be one of automatic adjustment, and government is not capable of meeting this need. None of the currency schemes of the middle ages was more ludicrous than the Sherman silver law of 1890. While a larger proportion of the popula- ton of the world today are versed in sound economics than was the case several hundred years ago. the average of intelligence in this particular is not high enough to encourage the belief that the regulation of the currency can safely be left to the kind of men who make up

NOTHING LIKE LEATHER. '
Big Boom in the Shoe Industry-High
 Price for Hides.

Big Boom in the Shoe Industry-High
 Price for Hides.
 Chicago Record.
 No better illustration of this general upward tendency can anywhere be found than in the hide, leather and shoe in dustries. The recital of the bare facts and the statistics of shipments and prices ought to be enough to convince the veriest croaker that he has nothing to cToak about.
 About a year ago the price of hides was so low that it hardly paid the farmer to save them and take them to market with his beef. And the big producers the owners of the Chicago packing houses-sold their hide products so low that there was an actual loss All this millitated against the raising of large numbers of cattle, and the lack of suffi- cient fodder, through the failure of crops in the west, made this tendency still more pronounced. Consequently, when the tanners began to look for raw mate rial they found that the supply was linn ited, and they at once began to buy. That was the first signal for a rise in prices.
 People have to have shoes, and they ordered just the same as if the supply of hides had not been short. Then the shoe men found that their stocks were low, and sent in their demands to the wholesalers and the wholesalers at once called on the manufacturers for supplies. Then the factories that had been idle began to fill up with workmen, and it was not long before the shortage in leather became apparent Since that time the demand has been so much great CT than the supply that the prices have made an advance unprecedented in the annals of the hide and leather industry.
 Indeed, the quotations for nearly every variety of stock are higher today than they have been before in ten years and in some cases higher than they have been since the war. Yet less than a year ago the prices were lower than they ever were in the memory of the dealers. Here is a comparison of the prices that reigned on October 1, 1884, with those of April l, 1895, and Septem- ber, 1895:
Birmingham age-herald., 1895-09-22

It will be seen that nearly all of this advance, which in some cases amounts to more than 100 per cent, in less than year, has taken place during the last four or five months. Of course this demand for hides has increased the demand for cattle, and the farmers who had them to sell got higher prices and were enabled to turn around and order more shoes. From 1880 there was a steady decline of the price of hides and leather up to the last half of the year 1894, but since that time they have suddenly recovered all of the loss. Of course the upward ten dency has raised the price of shoes, al- though as yet the wholesaler, owing to strong competition. has not advanced his prices all that the change in the leather value would warrant. An ordi- nary pair of rough farm shoes. contain ing one and one-half pounds of sole leath- CT and feet of grain leather and costing $l year ago, would be priced at about $1 30 now.

Henry Hirshfield, a physician of prominence in Mobile.

WITH THE RAILROADS.

The Louisville and Nashville will be in- convenienced today, as they were last night, on the Mobile and New Orleans di- vision, but not sufficient to very material ly interfere with traffic. A schooner ran against a pier of the Pearl river bridge at Rigolets, about twenty-seven miles this side of New Orleans, yesterday morning and tore away 125 feet of the bridge Transfers are being made while a large crew is busy repairing the bridge.
 Work is progressing favorably on the Montgomery and Prattville branch of the Louisville and Nashville Seven miles of the track has been put down and large force is busily engaged in the work. It is matter of only few days when the road will be completed.
 The repairs now being made on the Highland Avenue and Belt railroad along First avenue are of great importance, as there is a great deal of travel over the line, besides vehicles crossing it weSe constantly in danger. Keep it up, it's a good move.
 Stanley B. Slater has been appointed timekeeper of the Louisville and Nash vile here, to succeed MT. McMahon, who was only recently appointed to this posi- tion, but who has resigned. Stanley is to be congratulated on being so highly hen ored, as he is but 19 years old, and has only been connected with the road about one year. aft
