peremptory demands for a fixed
amount of damages are usually made
upon nations that have no battleships

ALL THERE OF 1T.

When it comes to a question of money
there is little possible politics in it,
and less of sentiment Money was
invented as a cold business necessity.
The demands Of a civilized life en-
forced a medium OF exchange which
at the same time should be a measure
of values a money that is not sound
makes poor medium OF exchange and
an unreliable standard OF measure
ments. So we find the business men
Of the country. Of every character,
whether producer Of the products Of
the farm or of the factory. OF the mine
or Of the forest, whether tradesman
or what not all arraying themselves
on the side of sound money. They
know that the present currency system
of the United States is reliable at least,
and they fear any new experiment or
any radical change, such as that of
free mintage Of silver instead of the
present government mintage.
There are politicians who are for
Mckinley for political reasons. There
are politicians who are for Bryan for
political reasons. Again there are
politicians ready to take up any cause
or any side that holds the promise of
office. But the average man who does
not count on the chances of Office,
whether he is a Democrat or Republl-
can, is Immediately interested when
any party proposes to touch his pocket
book. So it is that we have so little
of party politics in tht present cam
paign aud so much talk Of money.
The great majority of business men,
everywhere, are for the present cur.
rency system Of the government are
for the money plank of the Republican
platform. The great majority of those
VINO are favoring the free, independ-
ent and unlimited coinage of silver are
politicians. would-be politicians, pro-
fesslonal men and the non-business ele-
meptS They are men who in these
hard times are ready, many OF them
even anxious. to take all risks and all
chances OF any change however radical
The money policy of Mf. Cleveland
and the Democratic party is at the
bottom Of all the financial stress of the
past three years OF failing revenues
and Of falling prices. But for the
money and revenue policy of the pres
ent administration nothing would have
been heard Of the proposition for free
silver which has been so agitating the
country. Upon the other hand in the
triumph OF sound money and an ade-
quate revenue policy under Mckinley
and the Republican party, every enter
prise and every industry which has
suffered under the Cleveland admins
tration would revive, and with the re-
turn of confidence prosperity would
Come to all the land.

is capable Of seeing all up to the sixth
magnitude, inclusive, or 1881 stars.
whereas the number that may be map
ped by the exposure of the sensitive
plate for thirteen minutes is over 49,
100000.
Recently a congress of astronomers
met in Paris TO arrange for the concert
ed mapping of the whole heavens,
agreed upon in 1887. Two thousand
years ago Hipparchus made a cata-
Iogue of 1922 stars. Present cata-
logues contain over 100000. But the
effort of the astronomical congress is
TO make a Photographic chart which
will contain all the thirty or forty MIL
lions Of stars that can be found with
the light gathered by telescope 3112s
yards long. having an object glass
about one foot in diameter. The work
has been divided among sixteen OBJ
servatories situated at different points
on the globe. Each observatory is to
make 100 plates, and each plate pilot
ographs two degrees square. As many
as 11.027 plates are required TO cover
the entire htavens, and the celestial
chart they will be used to construct
will represent sphere having radius
of over 3b yards. Some of the plates
are to be exposed to the heavens for
FIVE minutes; others for an hour. The
shoter exposure will give material for
a chart to contain 2, 10000 stars. How
many will be revealed by the longer
exposure it is impossible to say till the
I1,027 sections have been pieced to-
gether and the aggregate made up after
careful inspection. 1t will doubtless
contain many whose existence has
hitherto been unsupported. The long
exposure will produce a record of stars,
or suns, so distant from us as to be of
the seventeenth or eighteenth magnl-
tude-stars whose light requires mil
lions of years to reach US The vast
speciousness of the universe will be evil
denced in the minute dots that reveal
to practiced eyes systems Of worlds
not previously known. Large conclu-
sions as to the structure of the physical
universe will perhaps be suggested by
the great chart when completed. In
itself the chart will be monument of
the patient labors of science and of the
sentiment of fraternity which enables
many different nations and races to
cooperate in its productions.
