Every student OF monetary science
md every practical man Of business
knows that the fundamental vice in our
currency system il the legal tender note,
redocmablo in coin by tho government
and reasonable under tho law. There are
other defects, but this is fundamental
and radical, and threatens tho stability
Of tho whole volume Of our currency
SO long M those notes are outstanding

serve authorized by law for their re-
domption ut once excitcs II fooling OF
apprehension and distrust in tho public
mind, affects the values OF all our So

or loss seriously embarrasses all tho bust

How mIch has been lost to our people
ON account Of unavoidable fluctuations
in tho aeScrvo it il impossible to state,
but all Clussos have suffered moro or less
from tho effects Of these fluctuations
upon tho markets for products, upon
wages and upon tho values of all kinds
of property; and, consequently tho con
dition Of that fund is u subject of con
slant attention and anxiety throughout
tho country. With IN almost constant
drain upon il, with frequent and sudden
demands for very large sums for hoard
ing on for export, and with no certain
means of replcnishipg it, except by
sales Of bonds, it, is absolutely impossi-
bio to maintain tho reserve at amy fixed
amount. and, therefore, impossible to
keep the public constantly assured of
financial stability and safety.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS.

Hon. HOWARD DOUGLAS,
Past Supreme Chancellor, is a native
Of the city of Cincinnati, o.,
where he has always resided He was
born on January 81, 1876. He
became Pythian Knight in May
1869. and ever since been an active,
earnest member of the Order. In
1884, at the convention of the
Supreme Lodge, held in the city Of
New Orleans, Louisiana, he was
elected Supreme Vice Chancellor, and
at the convention following held in
Toronto, Ontario, in 1886, he was
elected Supreme Chancellor. His ad-
ministration of the affairs of the
office from 1886 to 1888 was character
lied by great vigor and success and
marked possibly the most important
era in the history of the Order.
Grand Lodges have no power to in
crease the minimum for funeral
benefits over the amount required by
the Supreme Law, which is $50,
But very few of the old Representa-
tives have been re elected, and as a
result a larger number of new men
will appear in the Supreme Lodge
than ever before.
The members of the Uniform Rank
in Portland, Oregon, are making
strenuous efforts to bring a fine
Division of the Military Branch of
the Order to Minneapolis in 1896.
The American Pythian Press Asso-
citation has just been organized at the
city of ST. Louis, Missouri, and starts
out with the brightest possible pros
poets. All the strong papers belong
ing to the Order have joined its ranks.

A TRIBUTE TO JOHN GRANVILLE.
BY his Comrades of Geo. H. Legate
Post.

BY his Comrades of Geo. H. Legate
Post.
Again we are called upon to close a
gap in our ranks, by the " Falling out "
of Comrade John Glanvil!e, whose
"elbOW touch we shall feel no more
until the Grand Army is marshalled
for eternal service.
Again we are painfully reminded
that the generation from which only
recruits for our columns can be drawn
is we'll toward the terminal point of
mortal journeyings, and that ia the
near future the last comrade will re-
ceive his order from the Supreme Com
mander for transfer to the Grand En-
campment on the everlasting hills"
Therefore be it
Resolved, That in the death of Com
rade Glanville we feel that this Post
and the order has sustained loss
irreparable.
That his record of participation in
more than two score holly contested
battles evidences his heroic courage an
answering loyalty
That in his life Of upright citizen
ship is attested his appreciation of the
country which he so bravely defended
That in our own sadness we. his
comrades, realize the greater weight OF
sorrow that rests upon his devoted
wife, and assure her of our warmest
sympathy.
That the foregoing be given a page
in our Post records In honor Of his
memory, and that the copies be fur
nished to the widow, and to the Local
papers for publication.

JERRY SIMPSONS PLAN.
Would Issue Certificates Against the Sill
YER In tho Mountains.

YER In tho Mountains.
When tho sockless statesman of Kan
SOS first visited New York city, he went
with friend to the United States sub
treasury IN Wall street. They were
shown through the vaults in which part
OF tho governments money is stored
and finally reached a room in which
thousands Of big bags Of silver dollars
were piled ceiling high. Looking at the
great heap Of useless metal, the Medicine
Lodge financier turned to the United
States subtroasurer and asked: "Why
could not silver certificates be issued
Just as we'll on tho silver in tho hills? 1t
would save the country all the expense
Of mining tho ore, smelling and refining
it and coming it into dollars. think ii
Is great waste of labor to dig all that
silver out Of one hole and cut it up into
little pieces just to bring it hero and
dump it down into another hole, "
Ridiculous ms is the idea of paper cur
rcncy based on silver in the rocks, it is
moro sensible than tho free coinage ut
16 to plan. The silvorites propose to
compel the government to coin into legal
tender dollars all tho silver which may
be brought to the minis. As tho country
has already far moro silver dollars than
can be used in business, it would be nee
cssary to issue certificates which would
pass rs currency. So that tho govern
ment would be practically buying al
the silver offered it mt price nearly
double its market value.
The silver mino owners and theil
agents ridiculcd Congressman Simpson s
cheap money scheme. But wild as his
plan was it did not involve tho rcpudia,
tion Of just debts or the debnsoment OF
the standard Of value, us did theirs.
Silyortcs who laugh at the notion OF
using tho Rocky mountains rs a basis
for currency are really condemning
their own theory. Sensible people who
believe in honest money want neither
certificates based ON silver ore nor on pig
silver Either would mean II great an
nual loss through tho wastoful employ
ment Of labor which ought to be en-
gagged in producing useful articles,

it ever does, in the following para

Speaking of these emisaries, we
want to say that one of them drives a

will be well for our rea ders to receive
his smooth talk ''con" grdno sGEus.
Surely that is explicit enough and
surely it is quite pointed enough also.
II is quite evident from what the En-
quirer says, that the machine it has in
its minds eye is money machine. 1t

the Enquirer great credit for thus
