There is growing tendency in some
large power plants to introduce condensers
of the So called central type, one large
condensing apparatus being used to main
tain IA vacuum into which all the various
engines, pumps and comprcssurs discharge
their exhaust steam. This central CON
denser has its own air and circulating
pump and forms % sort of negative genera
tor at he opposite end of the power chain
from the boiler. vi.h IA steady pull, " Sc
to slouk, upon all he motors in the es-
tablishmcut This is the extreme devel-
opment cf the separate condenser idea of
Watt, and is the logical outcome of the
evolution of his original invention. Such
condens, RS are especially coming into use
in Germany, being installed at Krupp's,
ManesInann 5, and other large establish
ments, ana their construction has already
developed into "a large and important bust
ness. Apart from the general economy of
the use OF condenser, there is the addi-
tiOnal advantage that great number Of
small engines, pumps and the like, which,
in ordinary plants, would be putting and
barking away into the atmosphere, are
operated, condensing as IA matter of course
when there is general vacuum tank at
hand. Such central condenser might be
profitahly installed wherever there is sufli
cient water available. -Cassier's Maya

COMMON JOYS.

Our common joys, oh, what nre theyi
Tie brightest and he best.
They elad lis in our busy walks.
Are with us when we rest.
An ANGEL band, they hover round
In walking and in dream,
And DER our hearts in saddest hours
They Sired golden beam.
Our common joys, oh, what are they
But blessings felt within
For smallest deeds Of goodness done
Amid a world Of sim
The mite we give the child of want,
The slightest word of cheer
That lifts a heart with sorrow bowed
Or dries a falling tear.
Our common joys, oh, what are they7
The priceless pearls and gold
Which memory Sits upon the heart
When life is growing old
The thought that we have treasured up,
Where naught can steal away,
The consciousness of doing good
With every passing day.

A New Financial System.

The demand now heard from mer-
chants and manufacturers and bankers
and other intelligent observers in every
part Of the country is not for some re.
pairs to our financial system, but for a
new system. No government paper can
be free from objection, because its vol
ume and redeemability will depend in
part upon the opinions Of congress and
in part upon the opinions Of the pres
ident. No one can be certain that these
will be correct in all years to come. If
we could DO sure that they would al
ways be correct, we could not BIO sure
that the government would always be
able to maintain a sufficient reserve
for the redemption of the notes. If the
weight Of pound and the length Of a
yard were liable to be changed ct any
time by congress, the uncertainty could
hardly be so dangerous as, the present
uncertainty regarding the unit Of value.
This explains why SO many Of the men
who do the business Of the country, not
alone in the north and east, but also in
the south and west, demand the with
drawal Of the government notes. Iron

Is This Result Desirable3

Should this country alone attempt
free coinage of silver at the ratio Of 10
to /, 1t would thereby give notice that
we are ready to exchange for all corners
quantity Of gold which is valued at 81
in every civilized country for quanti-
ty Of silver which represents in the
markets Of the world about 90 cents.
In very short time all gold would
disappear. Itwould be boarded to await
a premium OR shipped to countries
where it is more appreciated. Only sill
yer would remain our circulating medi-
um. We would be on silver basis. Our
standard would be dollar worth little
more than 80 cents in every country but
our own.
All values would quickly adjust them
selves to this deprecated dollar and
would fluctuate with its changing value
in international exchange.

EVOLUTION OF MONEY.

Unwarranted Government Interference
Prevents Easy Transition From One Sub
stance to Another.
Money is simply commodity that ii
generally recognized as q universal
equivalent, and it's degree Of goodness
or efficiency consists in the unanimity Of
the recognition Of the fitness Of the COM
modify used as money to perform the
essential functions Of money. Many
commodities have been used as money,
and they have remained in use as long
as they met the essential requirements
Of money among the people where used,
or until some other commodity appear
ed the fitness Of which commended It,
self to the intelligence as being superior
to the commodity then being used.
As people have advanced in discrim-
mating intelligence they have discard
ed inferior commodities and adopted in
place thereof something that was supe-
rior These changes kept taking place
until finally gold and silver became the
commodities that were recognized by
the people Of most countries as being
the best for use as money. Sociological
transition is constant. Change is the
natural order Of things, and changes
come about naturally and are therefore
effected easily, if the natural process is
allowed to go on undisturbed. Trou-
blous friction ensues only when there Ia
obstructive governmental interference
to delay or defeat the natural order Of
things.
In our own day the stagecoaoh has
been supplanted by the steam railroad,
and stagecoaches have practically be-
come thing of the past. The tallow
DIP was succeeded by lamps filed with
burning fluid or oil, and lamps by illu-
ninating gas, and gas by electricity.
These and many other changes were ao-
complished with no serious disturbance
whatever, and SO it would be with COM
modities used as money in the absence
Of governmental obstruction. There
would be no threatening money ques-
tion in this country today, endangering
the continuity and perpetuity Of all
business activity, if the United States
was not engaged in the banking bust
ness.
Among civilized people the days Of
usefulness Of silver as money, except in
subsidiary forms, are numbered, and
silver Is going out Of use as surely as
have the stagecoach and the tallow dip,
and Cor ovocflv tho aana reason-civi.
Ization has outgrown the conditions
which necessitated Its use. No money
has ever come into use at the behest Of
government or because Of statutory en-
actments, but solely because of recog-
nized ability to perform the functions
of money. Austin W. Wright in Sound

Government Currency.

The reason bank circulation has been
decreasing through term of years. and
why it is inelastic, remaining almost
without change from season to season,
is that the security for it is a deposit Of
government bonds. The bank capital is
in the treasury instead Of in business.
The profits on circulation decline as the
bonds increase in value or the rate Of
interest declines, and the redemption
process is slow and ineffective. The
dangers Of the government currency
and the deficiencies Of the bank curren-
cy are now pretty we'll recognized, and
every day shows increased earnestness
in the demands of business men for
complete and permanent cure.-Iron

Cooperative Blinking For Farmers.

Cooperative Banking For Farmers.
The American Agrioulturist Of April
4 again discusses editorially the "entire
feasibility Of cooperative banking
among farmers. "This can DO DONE"
it says, "by slight notifications Of the
system Of cooperative savings fund and
building associations or cooperative
banks which has proved SO remarkably
successful in American cities. These in
situations now hold over $500, 900, 900
Of deposits and are thoroughly demon
strated practical success. The Saxon
Land Credit association Ia report upon
which can be obtained by writing to
the secretary of state, Washington is a
modification Of the Raiffeisen system,
which in Prussia and Germany has
achieved the same success among the
working farmers Of those countries that
the cooperative banks have achieved in
our American cities. The peoples banks
Of Italy and neighboring countries, based
upon much the same plan, have had
marvellous success. Areport giving fur

Credit association has been published
by the department Of state for free dis
tribution, in which Consular Agent Pc
tiers says with truth that can never be
questioned
What American farmers require to relieve
them Of the present financial strain under
which they are living is the power to borrow
at the lowest possible interest consistent with
their securities and the financial conditions in
the great centers of the world. So long as they
must borrow from the local money lender they
must pay high rate Of interest for accommo-
dalton. 1t is this high rate of interest under
which our farmers are now striving and fall
ing that Is responsible for the general unrest
and dissatisfaction. Remove the high rate of
interest, give them the same opportunity to
use their credit as men engaged in other bust
ness, exchange the present mortgage on the
farm for one with o reasonable interest, which
the farmer can pay and have something left
for the savings bank, and we will restore hap
piness and prosperity.
and landholders Of Europe, and the solution
Of the problem did not consist in the issue by
the government Of q mass of debased currency
circulated among the people OF fictitious
value. The end was reached by the farmers
and landholders by their own force and CO.
operation, by the founding Of associations
which in time became q power in the land, and
whose financial strength was measured by mil
lions of undoubted securities which the public
was only too glad to invest in.

"We cannot afford to advertise our
anxiety for the free coinage Of silver
any more" the Philadelphia North
American (Rep) declares. "Unless
some of the nations want free coin
age at our ratio or thereabout, it is idle

ing the great nations to create market

this nut, and but for the desire for O
