WHY WE DO NOT HAVE BETTER LIT
ERATURE.

M. d. Conway recently made the
somewhat startling statement that the
dearth Of good literature in America at
the present time is caused by the lack
of better copyright laws. The magical
power of law of any kind to give liter
ary ability and inspiration is well known
to nobody. No great book was ever
written for money. Mammon does not
inspire his votaries to write. Mr.. O.
should remember "Dryden's slovenly
verses, written for the market. F"

PRACTICAL COOPERATION.

LIE Claire Up. o., Edwardsville, Ills. }
is the most successful cooperative town
in America, 1t is the product of that
genuine friend of his fellow men, Hon.
N. o. Nelson. The movement is very
successful and the workmen are most
comfortably located. All manufacturers

JESUS AS A TEACHER.

1t is suggestive that in these days of
dissatisfaction and almost universal
questioning every one is turning to Jesus
and his message. The socialist, COM
munist, single taxor, free trader or the
leader or follower of any and every
movement all look to the message of
Jesus as the solution for their woes.
Many of these spuru the churches and
their dogmatic asseverations about
Jesus, for these are not conspicuous for
their love of their fellow men, but the
message of Jesus has at least escaped
from the leashes of theology and is per-
meating every class of society.
His highest thought may be heard in
the slums and is sung on the stage of
variety theaters. Along with this gen.
eral movement is the feeling among
teachers that there is needed more in
spiration in our schools. Results are
very barren compared with the time and
expense used. Dr. Hinsdale has led the
way in preparing a most able and sug-
gestive book. The work is one that
deals with strong and firm hand with
the method of Jesus teaching and other
related questions. The book will be of
great service to the professional teacher
and to all others who hope to under
stand the method of the greatest didac-
tic master.
THE OLDEST COLLEGE IN THE WEST.
At Lebanon, Ills, about 20 miles west
of st. Louis, is located McKendree col
lege, founded rs years ago, while Lin
coin was a member of the Illinois legis-
lature. 1t is claimed that he helped to
secure the charter and took much inter-
est in the movement. During all these
years the school has gone steadily on its
way and is still doing a good work.
Many of its graduates are filling high
positions in life. The father of the pres
ent candidate for president on the Dem
ocratic ticket was educated there. DR..
M. III. Chamberlin, the president, is
working for Il large endowment, and the
associations of the school, the great
work it has done, the name of Bishop
McKendree and the splendid ability of
DR.. Chamberlin make the outlook most
encouraging Every lover of education
i'll the United States ought to aid in
this great work.

Results of Law-M Made overproduotion.

Results of Law-Mado Overproduction.
From the New York Freeman Journal.
When one or more of the uses to which
a thing can be put is destroyed or made
illegal, the value or price of that thing
goes down correspondingly. This needs
no proof, but an illustration will make
it clearer. There are two kinds of coal
mined and used in Pennsylvania. The
bituminOus coal produces vast amount
of smoke in combustion, while the
anthracite produces little or none. Now
suppose the authorities in Pittsburg and
other manufacturing cities were to forbid
the use Of bituminous coal in order to
obviate the nuisance of smoke, what
effect would that prohibition have on
the price of these two kinds of coal? 1t
would cause a fall in the price of the for
bidden coal and a corresponding rise in
the price of the smokeleSs kind. The
latter would rise in price because the
prohibition had imposed on it alone the
work heretofore done by both kinds
The former would fall because its great
est utility was destroyed, and there
would be a law-made overproduction in
the market
1t is precisely the same with gold and
silver. Destroy the greatest utility of
either and impose the work of both on
the other, and the result must be rise
in the price of one and fall in that Of
the other. Decentralization OF either
destroys its greatest utility, for two
thirds of both are used as money, hence
that is the greatest utility.
What would be the result of the re-
moyal of the prohibition to use one kind
Of coal? 1t would increase the demand
for it because it would be put to its old
use again, and its price would rise The
demand for the other kind would be re-
duced because it would no longer have
to do the work of both, and as a conse-
quence its price would fall to that point
whore it was prior to the prohibition.
This is the result OF the general law of
supply and demand, or of production and
consumption. 1t applies to everything
that can be put to use by man including
gold and silver as metal or as money.

study the question, but Chairman
Powers said:
"As the first mortgage on the Union
racine is in process of foreclosure,
time is the essence of this matter"
Chairman Powers, of the Pacific rail-
road committee, has received letter
from Louis Fitzgerald. chairman of the
reorganization saying:
The regular committee now presents
a substantially single representative of
all Union Pacific first mortgage bonds in
circulation, as well as of all issues Sc
cured by liens prior to the lien which
secures the debt to the United States.
Ihls union OF securities relieves the mat
ter OF voluntary reorganization from every
difficulty excepting that of defining the
relatively fair proportion which should be
made for the claim of the government.
While the necessity is pressed upon the
reorganization committee to enforce the
rights of the first mortgage bondholders,
penang foreclosure proceedings, the COM
mittee believes that it would be its best
office to aid in carrying into effect such
proposal for the equitable settlement of
the government claims as may be approved
or made by the committee on Pacific
roads, and be carried into the form of
proper legislation by congress-
Another letter has been received by
Mr.. Powers from L. j. Morrison, of New
I ork, advocating the plan for purchase
ana reorganization executed for II. Ltv-
ingston Rogers, as agent for about $50
Union Pacific, whose holdings amount to
some 100000. This plan embraces a
S35, 600, 600 first mortgage to be issued for
the present firsts which would include the
Omaha bridge bonds, the per cent. land
grant bonds, and the three unpaid cou-
pons on the present first mortgage. Mr..
Morrison holds that the earnings of the
Union Pacific at their present ratio, if
they had been properly applied, would
more than suffice for the payment Of in
tereSt of United States mortgage bonds.
He advocates a union Of the interests of
the government and his clients, and says:
with a majority of the issue in its
hands, the syndicate Opposing interests),
can use the bonds in lieu Of cash, as
bid money on the foreclosure sale, and in
the absence of any higher bid they would
become the purchasers Of the property
and would assign to the government and
to their security holders interests in the
new company upon the reduced plane
which they have outlined in their publish
ed plan, stocks and watered low rate
bonds"

the enactment of such a law is con-
