MONEY oPPRessls NO ONE.


notwithstanding the Fa,sO DOCTRINE
Preached by this PopuiIsts.
The National Waterman, an organ Of
tho Popuiist party, advocates free coin
age as social reform, claiming that
more silver money will greatly improve
the condition of the farmers and work
ing classes. In recent editorial The
Waterman says, 1.-THE power Of money
to Cypress, through the reduction of the
price of labor and its products, is the
ruling factor in all the distress now seen
in this country"
This representation Of money MS some
thing which Expresses and Injuries the
people is responsible for the Populist be-
lief that idleness and poverty are due TO
the wickedness of an Imaginary "money
power. But though this doctrine is
zealously preached by the free coinage
orators and press. it is nothing but de-
fusion, pure and simple. There is not
now, nor has there ever been, am oppres-
sive money power. for the sufficient
reason that there is no possible way in
which money can Cypress any one. OF
itself money is air inert thing, which
only serves some useful purpose when
loaned ont on put into circulation. The
owner Of money cannot compel any one
to borrow it. and therefore does not CD
press those who find it profitable to pay
interest for its Ilse. The man who puts
money inc circulation by exchanging it
for goods or services employs labor and
Injuries no one. An owner of money who
refuses TO lend or spend it loses interest
on it and Injuries only himself
The idea that money reduces both the
price of labor and Of labor products is as
absurd as to say that heat expands and
contracts water. 4 decline in the price
of products is equal to an increase in the
price paid for labor, ainee the working
man can buy more goods with his wages.
But apart from this contradiction, it is
not trne that money reduces the price of
labor Wages depend oil the total pro-
duction of wealth by the workers, being
high where production is great and low
where it is small. Money hasnothirg to
do with real wages.
The fiction of an Expressing money
power is as far from fact as would be
the assertion that iron and gunpowder
are the causes of war. Populists might as
logically denounce the wicked iron and
powder power for the lives lost in battle
as to blame The material used for money
for the inequalities iii social conditions.
Except in so far as industry is checked
by the agitation for debased silver and
greenbeck currency, money has no con-
nection with idleness and poverty. And
ill no case is any ono the slightest de-
gree poorer because of the imaginary
money power.

A BANK NOTE. STORY.

To the long list of bank note stories
we NAV rs we'll add this one, for tho
truth of which we can vouch, saws the
London Presbyterian. A traveller
stayed for night at one of the largest
London hotels. In the afternoon, after
he had gone away, telegram was
received from him stating that he had
left five pound note on the mantel-
piece. On Inquiries being made. no
note was found, but the chambermaid
remembered finding dirty piece Of
paper on tho floor, and tearing it up
and carrying it away with the rest Of
the rubbish from the rooms along the
corridor. The pai! OF rubbish was
traced TO the hotel dnsthole, into
which were shot the accnmulations
from the whole Of the building. The
manager gave orders for the drsthole
to be cleared ont and examined, and
halt Il dozen people were set to work
with sieves, TO discover some trace ol
the missing fragments. When nearly
half the mass had been gone through,
one little corner Of the note was found.
Then another piece, soddem and dirty,
was discovered and finally, after about
an hours sitting. all the pieces were
found but one, of about square inch
in size. The pieces were washed and
dried. and stuck together on an elab-
crate network of postage stamp strips.
The bank paid the note; the traveller
did not even say "Thank you," but
merely complained Of the lnconve-
nience to which he had been put by
the chambermaid's stupidity.-Leisure

LUMINOUS COMPLEXIONS.

mating CLEANS limited to the room aud
its furnishings. but the gowns of the
women were also brilliantly phosplior.
escent, while their complexions
cleaned like pearls flooded with NOON
light.
As this idea threatens to become
fad of no small proportions, it should
be known by women who long to- emit
this spoonlike radiance that there is a
luminous face powder which is said
to fulfill its mission admirably. There
is also in the market luminous starch
with which the clever laundross can
give laces, muslins and all the dainty
articles of feminine attire perpetual
source of radiance. The idea of an
invisibly lighted loom, it's atmosphere
