CoxeY'S Tangent.

Coxey in his Sound Money" paper is
out with call for conference to meet at
st. Louis, January Iath. Coxey's idea is
the demonstration of gold and the sub
stitution Off United States paper currency
of full legal tender, issued by the govern
ment, distributed and controlled by the
government through and by a system of
government banks. Mr.. Coxey cannot let
that "noninterest bearing bond" scheme
of his slide, although it's as plain as the
nose on his face-as easily seen by
another person-that when the govern
ment bank is established, the "non-
interest bond" is superhuous. Govern
ment banks demanding no more interest
on loans than the noninterest bond, would
furnish money for all public enterprises
required on the same terms and without
providing any special sum to be issued
and then destroyed when the loan was
paid. The money in general circulation
would be sufficient to conduct all such
public enterprises, because the money
goes back into the banks as soon as it
passes through the laborer's hands to the
merchant and from the merchant to the
bank, ready for loan or use Immediately.
Drop your noninterest bond as a super
fluffy when the government bank is
established, Coxey.
There can be very much more said in
favor of silver when taken in connection
with the larger supply of that metal and
the worlds money, than Coxey's philos.
ophy ever dreamed Of The demonetiza-
ton of gold by the United States, one OF
Mr.. Coxey's hobbies, would have no effect
whatever on gold as long as the minis OF
Europe are open to its free coinage, while
the gold standard usurers are using the
bullion silver of the American continent
to an immense advantage to them and
against us. We can make them pay Ioc
cents for silver in place of so cents as now,
by simply remonetizing it. If never dol
| lar of it went into our circulating medium,
our country would be enriched to the
amount of the difference. Uncle Sans
legal tender would be all sufficient for the
people of this country to transact and
extend their business with, but it is not
business to give foreigners one ofour best
mineral crops at half price. And here is
where Mr.. Coxey falls down.

The Trust.

How many have considered what
a giant danger to society the Trust
is? When the trust is in control
of the leather, the wool, the sugar,
the oil, the beef market, these COM
modities must be sold to it as well
as purchased from it; there is no
other market and the producer is
as helpless as the consumer.
Thus oppressed in the price of
it's toll, thus oppressed in it's means
of life, is there any one who can
view the conditions of present
society without CONSERVATION and
alarm?-The Coming Revolution.

The New York Clergy and the Prize
Fight,

The prize fight appears to be coming
to the front in New York's best society.
New York has made much of sensa-
ton out of the approval given to prize
fighting by Police Commissioner Roose-
welt and the Rev. DR.. Parkhurst. Mr..
Roosevelt witnessed, and to all appear
ances keenly enjoyed, the bout of Mon
day night between Maher and Choynski,
i'll which the latter was knoceed out, and
the Rev. DR.. Parkhurst, in commenting
upon Mr.. Roosevelt's presence at the
fight, said that boxing exhibitions were
we'll enough if no blood was spilled. Act
ing upon the hint contained in these
events, President Genslinger, of the b.
hemian Athletic Club, rushed to the wire
to make his offer for the Corbert-F itz-
simmons fight and people here began to
talk of Messrs. Roosevelt and Parkhurst
as advocates of smuggling matches. In
this afternoons outpour of newspaper car
feature DIR. Parkhurst is represented in
two of the cartoons as the referee of a
prize-fght, and in two of them Roosevelt
is pictured as participant i'll ring fight.
The clergy have been generally inter-
viewed upon the morality of smuggling, and
the familiar old prize-fght is being dis
cussed as though it was of recent inven-
ton. The Rev. Dwight L. Moody has
stopped in his work of evangelizing New
York long enough to give his views on
the subject. Mr.. Moody thinks it is all
wrong. He said today: eff Mr.. Roosevelt
would just put his own son in that man
place 1 don't think he would approve it
so much. That's the way always look
at those things. Just put your own son
IN his place. 1t seems to ME the Golden
Rule ought to apply there as we'll as in
anything else. Nobody wants to be knock
ed senseless. don't want to be knocked
senseless. It's all very wrong"
The Rev. DR.. Van der Water is quoted
as saying: II have always considered
prize-fghts, with the shedding of blood,
as brutal and disgusting, but can inlag
inc scientific exhibition of sparring,
even where man is knocked senseless,
that would not be revolving I should be
proud to see my son principal in such
an exhibition, whether he was worsted or
not"
1t will be seen that the real fighters,
like Parkhurst and Roosevelt, don't think
fighting so awfully awful.-Extract from
N. Y. letter to the American.
If a new name could be coined for The
sport, the probability is it would have
great run. The combats between the
gladiators was the rarest sport for the
upper ten in old Rome. New York is
reaching out for that point in civilization
which marked the Augustian age of the
Empire on the Medet eranean, which Glib
bon dates as its decline and Fall"
AS undesirable and revolving as it may
be viewed, there are good deal worse
occupations in New York sanctioned and
protected by law, and guarded as the
apple of the eye, called business" than
the prize-fght.

Shop-lifters Caught.

| Mrs. Sue Thackery and Miss
Florence Smith were arrested in
Baltimore on Tuesday for shop
lifting. The following is from the
Baltimore American
''For some time past goods have
been missing from the stores OF
Posner Brothers, on West Lexing-
ton street. Special Officer A. J.
Miller was employed to keep a
lookout and try to detect the
thieves. Tuesday morning Mrs.
Thackery and Florence Smith en-
tered the store. Mrs. Thackery
carried basket and the Smith
woman wore a long cape. They
acted in suspicious manner, and
Officer Miller followed them when
they left the store. AS they were
about to board a car at the corner
Of Park avenue and Center street
he went up to them and asked to
examine the basket.
"Mrs. Thackery then broke down
and confessed she had robbed Pos
ner's store, and said if Officer Mil
Ter would not arrest her she would
return the goods. Florence Smith
was then taken back to Posner's
store and detained, while Officer
Miller accompanied Mrs. Thackery
to her home, No. 1923 Belvidere
street, where she returned to him
about sixty dollars worth of cut
glass and fine china. In the lot
were four clocks, an entire tea set
and also many small cut glass
articles and bisque figures. In the
basket which Officer Miller carried
back found a piece of cloth and
handkerchiefs bearing the name of
Nathan Gutman & Co. The goods
were identified by one of the firms
clerks, and Florence Smith was
arrested. She was given a hearing
before Justice Grammar and con-
fessed taking the goods from Ma
than Gutman & Co. She said she
came to Baltimore from Washing
ton last January, and went to board
with Mrs. Thackery, She was a
dressmaker, and made her living at
that work until Mrs. Thackery
taught her how to do shop-lifting.
Mrs. Thackery always went out
with her and carried basket, into
which she put the stolen goods.
She also stated there were more
goods in Mrs. Thackery's house.
GA search warrant was issued, the
house searched and Mrs. Thackery
arrested. In the house was found
a wagon load of goods of every de-
scription, including hats, feathers,
silks, shoes, dress goods, cooking
utensils, boys clothing and
women's underwear, in all valued
at about three hundred dollars.
The goods bore remarks of Oehm's
Acme Hall, Dalsheimer Bros, Ros-
enthal's dry goods store, S. Kann,
Sons & Co., Levi Weinberger,
Hutzler Bros, Joel Gutman & Co.,
Charles Simon q Sons and Posner
Brothers. Some of the goods have
no mark.
"Mrs. Thackery confessed to Cap
tain Cadwallader, and said she
would tell where she got each
article. Some of the silks, which
are very expensive, have been made
up into dresses. There are also
several pocketbooks, one contain
ing a small gold watch. The women
say they have been operating for
about year.
"Florence Smith is only about %
years old, and Father good looking.
Mrs. Thackery is about so years
old, and came to Baltimore some
years ago from Wilmington. Del.
She is known to the police"
Mrs. Thackery is a native of this
county, her maiden name being
Buchanan, The family resided at
Frenchtown on Elk river, about
three miles below Elkton.
