"tbe government never borrowed q
dollar" for the purpose Of prosecuting
the war, for the reason, first, the men
who had money wouldn't lend 1t to the
government; second, there wasn't
money enough in the world, If our gov
eminent could have borrowed 1t all,
to pay its war bills; that the war was
fought with paper money, and II the
government really owes anything at all
it was for paper money, and that the
debt" should be paid in the same
kind Of money which the government
borrowed therefore, start your
printing presses and pay the debt"
and these same cranks do not hesitate
to say that if the people need more
money than this, then remit
all taxes and print the money
necessary to pay running ex-
penses until such time as the proper
limit to the amount of money is
reached.
OF course this means anarchy, pure
and simple, and perhaps the only eff
fective way to stop it's progress is for
the major to tell the people plainly
where money comes from, how 1t Is
created, etc., the fact that the consti-
tuition gives congress the power to coin
money and regulate it's value could cas-
lily be explained on the ground Of ex-
pediency in maintaining the inviolabil-
ity Of the state secret"

In the alcoholic ward Of Bellevue
Hospital in New York lies a man dy-
ing. 1t would serve no purpose to give
his name, but for the sake Of an OBJ
ject lesson his case may well be re-
counted. A rich cotton manufacturer
died four years ago, leaving an enor-
nous fortune and four sons. The ED
est son died at S6 of alcoholism, hay-
ing made large hole in the inherit
ance. His second brother died a year
later of the same disease, aged rs, hav-
ing done his share toward dissipating
his fathers earnings. The third son
died a year ago, also from drink, at "a,
and left only $4,000 of the fortune to
the last brother, which he has spent
in his turn, and now at 20 lies dying Of
the same thing in the public ward of a
charity hospital surrounded by
"drunks" of all forms of lowness and
degradation. This is horrible tale,
but it is true, and it should serve as
a warning.

A story of two flags is told by cor
respondent of an American newspaper
who has verified accounts Of Spanish
cruelty in Cuba. The foreman of a
plantation attacked by the Spaniards
was French citizen. He retreated in
to his house and wrapped himself in
the French flag. In spite Of this sig
nificant protest he was seized and put
to death. No such contempt was
shown for the colors Of another coun-
try whose protection was invoked. A
Spanish force appeared at the estate Of
a British consul in search Of a young
man against whom they had some cause
of complaint. Putting the young man
In a room the consul nailed the British
flag across the door, and dared the Span
iards to tear it from it's place. The as
sailants knew that the power Of the
British Empire was represented by that
flag, and the colors were undisturbed.
The world has learned thoroughly the
lesson that the British flag protects the
humblest subject of the queen. May
It never fail to be true that the Amer
lean flag is defence for an American
citizen, the world over.

en- by a New York court, to the effect
that bicycle coasting is not "scorch-

into anybody, then he is subject to
arrest, but otherwise he is at liberty to
coast all he wants to without fearing
the Intervention Of the stern arm Of the
law. 1t is interesting to know that the
jddge who gave the decision is a Wheel

supposed to have spoken from the
standpoint of an expert witness.

The recent issue of 1852 millions Of
bonds In time Of peace illustrates an
other serious evil of the present none
tary system. The necessity the gov
eminent is under of redeeming green
backs in gold upon demand enables
scheming men to draw large amounts
of gold from the treasury and then say
to the government, Your reserve Is
getting low; you must have gold or you
will be In danger OF failure to keep
your promise in respect to specie pay
ments-issue bonds and get the gold
back again." So the schemers get bonds
for their gold, sell the bonds at a
premium, take the greenbacks they get
for the bonds and draw the gold out Of
the treasury again, till the govern
ment is frightened into new Issue Of
bonds, and so on in an endless chain,
with a premium profit for Wall street
on every issue of bonds, and nothing
but accommodating debt for the nation.
When bonds are issued in time of war
the government gets a substantial
eQulNdltul, DuI lhOoO ihiiiiOiio Va bOhNo
that are issued to keep up the gold re-
serve have secured to the people moth
ing at all at any real worth to them.
The spectators rendered no service to
the government-they simply drew out
gold in order to speculate on the bonds
that would be issued to get 1t back.
The government might start with 30
millions of gold in the treasury and,
through the repetition of the above
process, issue billion of bonds, and at
the end be just where 1t started, with
30 millions of gold in the treasury, and
not a thing to show for the billion OF
debt but the keeping of foolish prom
Use that is of little advantage to any
one except the schemers who have
found out how to gear it to a bond
printing press and make 1t turn the
peoples millions into their Golfers as
fast as they dare to turn on the cur
rent.-Prof. Frank Parsons of Boston

New York has tenor singer who Is
so handsome that he has to have a
woman chaperon to protect him from
emotional young women. This may be
the case in New York; anything in the
shape of male biped, outside of dudes

Judging from the cartoons in the
plutocratic papers the principal charge
against the farmer is that his whisk-
ers are too long. OF course this is 2
very grave offense and one that can
only be partially atoned for by the fact
that the farmer is kept 80 busy in the
struggle to keep his head above the
water that he has but little time to
trim his whiskers in the latest pluto
cratic style. Another reason may be
that he is Shaved" so often by specu-
lators. demagogues and usurers that he
stands in holy adherence of shaving
himself.
