Reform !" What sins are commit
ted in thy name, and what Il catchy
word it is! How it has and is yet
being used from the great national
clear down the line to the small town
ship affairs. The demagogue invar-
iably uses it to carry his point. The
noisy individual adOwn all ages has
pointed to the inaccuracies and i'm
projections of erring humanity and
shouted ''refOrm'-never living to
realize that so long as man exists
his creations will be imperfect. On
the other hand the shrewd and I'M
scrupulous man of wealth makes use
of this same ''refOrm' to carry his
own selfish ends. But so long as
people will be swayed by such things,
so long will the demagOgue, high
and low, Use them. The latest Use
which we have seen made of the
word is in Il circular from New York
city, headed ''Reform Club" The
purpose of this organization, as the
circular states, is "to push the edu-
cational work for sound currency
This, OF course, is as meaningless as
their title of reform" All sane men
want sound currency But what
this organization of wealthy men
want is to get weekly papers like the
PRESS to publish their single gold
standard theories. And they offer
