man did not speak with any excitement, |
but with the calm deliberation of man
who had personally gone over the figures
of which he spoke, as he said he had
also, that he was somewhat of book
keeper himself. It is not strange that
there should have been excitement on
the floor of the senate to such an extent
that the services of the sergeant-at-arms
had to be called for by Vice President
Stevenson to restore order, something
that the oldest habitue of the senate does
done. Nor is it strange that men say
Secretary Carlisle should be impeached,
either for incapacity or for violation of
the oath of office.
1t seems that whenever some govern
ment wants something said to another
government that it does not care to say
itself it calls on the United States to say
it, and if Secretary Gresham has de-
cfined single request of that sort the
fact has been successfully kept from the
public and buried in the archives of the
department of state. So far nothing SER
ious has come of Secretary Gresham's
latest attempt to do the parrot act, but
the incident is not yet closed. 1t was
the Insignificant government of San
Domingo that made use of the ever-pliant
Gresham this time. It seems that in
order to force settlement of long score
against San Domingo, France sent three
warships to the harbors of the little
black republic. Now this was none of
our business, yet Gresham, when re-
quested by the government of San Do
mingo, told France that no hostile dem
onstration must be made. The French
government took this interference much
more good-naturedly than Japan did a
similar one, and even went SO far as to
explain just what. it was trying to ac-
complish. But those warships were
not withdrawn. Gresham then sent
another communication to the French
government intimating that those war;
ships would better be withdrawn. There
the matter stands at present.
One of Greshau's little schemes was
too much even for the democratic house.
He promised to pay the British govern
ment 1926, 900 for damages sustained by
Canadian sealers in Behring sea, but
when an attempt was made to appropri-
ate the money the house, very properly,
refused by vote of 143 to 112 to do it,
fifty democrats voting with SO republi-
cans against the appropriation. Repre-
sentative Hit, of Illinois, led the fight
against the appropriation, and it was
his showing from the official records,
that all the claims for damages which
have been filed by Canadian sealers
aggregated only little more than one
third of the amount asked for by Gresh-
am, that won the fight. :

A SOUND MONEY SYSTEM.

Our finance system is a patch work
reInaIns { legislation forced upon the
country during the war aud following
the restoration Of public credit sftel
1865. 1t is not suited 10 conditions 81
peace aud the rapidly expanding
,mmerce Of this nation. II
Is lacking in volume and elasticity.
1t Is too expensive aud too mOuOpUlis
tic. This has all been stated over and
over again by the press, the presideusl
and secretaries of the treasury, and b.
the large comm rcial bodies. 1t hai
oeen emphasized by several psnics
aud our whole business stability seems
tO hang on y nair trigger with Wal

Under these circumstances, when
we talk about sound money system
we mean finance system that is ade
4uate to the conditions of the country
IS 1t now 10 or probably will be for b
term of twenty or fifty years to come
Based on the experience Of the past,
what system of finance should W.
labor to bring about, Is the question
chat every patriotic citizen should ash
nimself.
1t Is assumed that the bankers and
capitalists are just As much interested
AZ the farmer and laborer In securing n
system that shall be acceptable and
satisfactory TO the great mass Of the
American people, because unless 1t is
80, 1t cannot be enacted into the law
Of the land. Intelligent public sentl.
ment must not only demand the sys-
tenn, but must sustain IL after IL Is
enacted.
As humble student OF the subject
we have read nearly all the books and
come to this conclusion, that we have
held for years, and have seen no cause
TO amend 1t, Ifit ls wrong we would
like to have II corrected. 1t 10 simply
this:--
That all the American currency be q

Jols walters, New Play

julie Walters new production. "a
Money Order" was witnessed by a
fair-sized audience at Hsrper's thea
tire last night. The play was credit
ably presented, Mr.. Walters. who is
the old gentlemanly tramp of yore,
having surrounded himself with a
good company and handsome scenic
accessories. There are some neat
specialties introduced.
julie Walters deserved no larger
audience than he received. as pubic
confidence in him was destroyed by
the fake which preceded him here
and which for royalty he permits
to bear his name. Walters should
either enforce the name of ..Side
Tracked. his old piece. or take it
under his wing. In its present
shape it is demoralizing the business
everywhere, which he will find as
far rs he follows in its wake.
