President Cleveland gave currency to
the endless chain" simile, referring to
the presentation of greenbacks 10 be
redeemed in gold and paying out the
greenbacks again for governmental eN-
penses. thus enabling them TO be used
to draw more gold nom the treasury,
The possibility Of such a process being
set in motion has existed ever since the
resumption OF specie payments in 1879,
but it never happened until the present
presidential term.
A reserve. for the redemption Of
notes is always Il necessity. TO enable
the notes 70 circulate at par, Green
backs did not rise to par until gold
reserve had been established, and II
was possible to get gold on demand by
presenting them for redemption. What
ever the basic money may be--whether
gold or silver>-the reserve must consist
OF coin. II the basic money is silver,
the reserve must be silver; II the basic
money is gold, the reserve must BE-
gold.
This is as true OF banks Of issue as It
IL Of the government. In the old days
OF state banks, every one OF them kept
a coin reserve wherewith to redeem
such OF It's notes as might be presented,
1t is impossible to keep notes in circu-
latlon al par. unless the people know
they can get them redeemed on de-
mand. They prefer paper to coin. be-
cause Of its convenience. so long as it
is as good as coin.
The possibility is thus always present
Of run" on a bank. or on the treas
ury for the redemption OF its notes.
In such a case. banks officers always
have 1t in their power to obtain gold
from other sources, to tide them over.
The treasury has no way to do this ex-
cept by issuing bonds.

On the treasury to obtain gold is for the 1
government to abandon the issue OF
notes, Then there will be no

Why was there no run" on the treas

ng to the lack Of sufficient revenue.
Hence the greatest protection against

against bond issues to
the reserve, is in an ample
evenue.
But if the people desire to stop all
feasibility Of bond issues to replenish
he reserve. they must abolish the gold

government entirely out Of the banking
business. SO long as it continues to ex-

I must protect its notes as a bank

1t was the New York Sun, we believe.
which, in summing up the qualities of
each great orator in the last campaign,
accorded ex-President Harrison the dis
tinction Of being the best general speak
er before the American public today.
In the opinion Of many competent crit
les, who have commented on the re-
spective ranks of the various prominent
orators, as put down on the Suns list.
the ex-president is not honored too
highly. Even tine most superficial read
er must have noticed that Mr.. Harri-
sons addresses seemed to interest him
more than those % any other public
speaker. He has a Thoughtful way Of
treating even the most trivial and pro-
sale subject which induces one to read
his entire address through, when it was
perhaps the original purpose to glance
only at few leading ideas or SEN
tences. Mr.. Harrison never seems to
use superfluous word, and there is a
plainness and charming simplicity
about his style which makes the most
abstruse idea he advances thoroughly
comprehensive without. seemingly, any
mental effort on the part Of his reader.
No one can go through any public
speech he ever made without learning
something; no matter how old or trite
the topic under discussion may be.
These thoughts especially apply to re-
cent address delivered by the ex-presi-
dent before the Farmers National Con
gress at Indianar oils, in which he point
ed out the dangers Of too exclusive
pOrtance Of recognizing the interde-
pendence Of classes in the existing con-
dition Of society. He said that II is
custom Of the time for men Of a partic-
ular occupation to associate themselves
together, to develop and cultivate mu-
tual interests. Such organizations, he
said. are to be encouraged, but il must
not be forgotten that lawyers, farmers
and laborers all have interests, and
that no one class should try to get the
better of the other classes. When any
men, engaged in particular calling.
from high motives associate themselves
together and pursue those high motives
in their association, only good can re-
suit. But, he said, people should not
be selfish in their purposes. If, he con-
tinued, we were absolutely selfish in
sur purposes and thought only Of our
own good, the good Of the class and
Of the Individual Of the class, we should
find that good most highly promoted by
taking broad view Of things. and by
admitting to our deliberations the
thought that it is not possible for one
class to be highly prosperous while all
other classes are suffering; that there IL

A mist fell from the deep blue sky
And wrapped the hills away
While DER the meadows warmly brown
The ghosts Of dead flowers fioated dowr
Heirs TO a coming May.
My little love and l.
Wandering hand in hand,
Watched silver cobwebs sailing by,
Threads spun by a fairy band;
And the little maiden with childish glet
Reveled in new discoveries
In earth and air and skies
Ny little love and 1
Still wandered far away.
And in the depths Of her sweet gray
eyes
A shadowy stiffness lay,
Didst ponder DER this world 80 gay,
My little love Of that autumn day.
As we wandered side by side?
My little love and /
Our feet no longer stray
Thro' fragrant fields Of tangled grass
Toward the misty hillside gray;
Beyond the cloudland she has passed,
Has solved the wonder old.
And left to me the mysteries
This side the skies Of gold.
