SETH LOW ACCEPTS

The Nomination for Mayor OF Greater
New York, rendered Him by the cItl.
IenI Union Party.
NORTHEAST HARBoR, Maine, Sept.
s.-seth Low has slgnined his accept
ance of the nomination as mayor of
Greater New York, rendered him by
the borough committees of the Citizens
Union.
Mr.. Low was officially notified of his
nomination by J. C. Clark, a special
messenger of the Citizens Union. There
was no ceremony attending the affair.
Four reporters were the only other per-
sons present Mr. Low. after the I'm
IONS letter of notification was read, an
nounced that he would accept, adding;
'In my view. the nomination has been
| virtually made by the people. No pa
trlot, under such circumstances, should
decline to stand unless he were prepar-
ed to discourage even In local matters,
all spontaneous movements by the peo-
pie outside Of the limitations Of party.
There seems to be an Importance at
| tnching to the order OF nomination at
this juncture on the part OF those APP
parently Inclined to be controlled by
this expression Of the popular desire
that personally, fail fully 20 under
stand"
Mr.. Low closed by saying that he
thought his nomination not personal
tribute, but that II means that the
people OF the city, as they contemplate
all that Is at stake, are deeply moved
by the desire that when the great city
begins its new career, It shall do so
with mandate from the voters to the
officials OF the city that the welfare OF
the city, not OF any party, is to be their
first concern Tor that principle, I am
known to stand; for shall contend in
the coming campaign with such allies
as time may bring; but, for II shall
stand by my friends few or many. Be
cause the citizens union stands tor this
principle and because am In sympathy
with lts general purposes, shall gladly
accept lis nomination, and shall well
come all support from any quarter that
recognizes the position that occupy"

expression about the settlement, gavO
this statement;
"The settlement n a most fortunate
termination OF the strike. There hal
been no question IN any quarter thai
miners wages should be increased. The
only question was how much. Consider
ing the difficulties in the way on both
sides In regard to the adjustment, which

fair and reasonable one. 1t reflects great
credit upon both parties,
THE operators went more than half
way and sacrificed not little but this
Is done generously and ungrudgingly,
with the purpose OF securing TO their EN-

appreciated and met In a spirit OF kind
ness and fair dealing, We regard II as
q foregone conclusion that the settle

THE ADVANCE IN STOCKS.

Bryan organs are printing conspicuously
what purports to be a statement of trust
stock gains shortly preceding and since the
passage of the new tariff law. There are
twenty-six companies or different issues of
stocks given with the price of the stocks in
April and the price now, showing ag
gregate gain in the last three months of
5000, 567, SS4 The list contains some corpora
tons the price of whose stock could not
possibly be affected by the tariff except in
the general way that all business interests
are benefited by the prospect of better
times, such as the Western Union Telegraph
Company, the Chicago Gas Company, Con-
solidated Gas Company. General Electric
Company, and others; but, waving this and
other questions of accuracy, it is submitted
that the statement furnishes gratifying
proof of the growth of confidence and i'm
provement of business conditions under the
prospect of Republican legislation. The
statement, which, be it remembered, is
printed as proof of the viciousness of Re-
publican legislation, says that within the
last ninety days trust stocks have adj
vanced in value 5000 .SS4 and railroad
stocks S267, 257, O19, making a total of $476,-
S24,9 03. There is no means at hand of veri-
flying the statement, but it is hoped it is at
least approximately correct. The Journal
would be glad to know that the price of
every share of stock in every corporation
in the United States, including every So
called trust, every manufacturing concern,
every gas water and street-railroad COM
pany and every railroad company, has
made a. material advance in the last three
months. Such an advance would Demon
strate the far-reaching effect of the revival
of confidence that has been going on, and
would show that corporations are expect
ing to share in the prosperity which every
body admits is coming for individuals. The
Springfield Republican, which is not a Re-
publican nor a protection paper. prints
other list, mainly of railroad stocks show
ing the closing prices on Saturday last as
compared with the lowest prices during the
year and the gain. This list is as folows

THE NEED OF CURRENCY REFORM.

A Republican member of Congress who
voted for the currency commission bill is
quoted as expressing doubt as to there
being any urgent necessity of change in orr
present system. 81 rather believe" he is
reported saying, that with a tariff es-
sentially American in its character upon
the statute books with abundant revenue
secured with the spectacle presented to the
world of this country paying off and dimin-
ishing, rather than increasing its debt our
credit will be so established abroad and the
confidence of the people will become so
firmly fixed at home that the wheels of in
dustry will revolve and prosperity return"
That is the let-alone theory of finance, and
no doubt it is entertained by many Repub-
licans who know that our currency sys-
tenn is radically defective and will have to
be overhauled and reconstructed soon or
late They say, What is the use of tear
ing down just to build up again? That our
currency system has some excellent fea-
lures is shown by the fact that all our diff
ferent kinds of paper money are on par
with gold and there is no possibility CT the
noteholder losing by any of them. The
country has enjoyed prosperity under the
present system in past years, and it can
do again Why not let well enough
alone?' The let-alone policy is a good one
when things are all right, but otherwise not.
1t is wise to let well enough alone, but it is
not wise to let bad enough alone. Our
present currency system has some good
features, but it also has bad and dangerous
ones The good features should be retained
and the bad ones got rid of. The mass of
people see only the good features, but ex-
perts and those who look beneath the sur
face see the bad and dangerous ones. When
finaneiers. political economists, bankers

bias. are unanimous in urging currency re-

form it is no time to say let well enough
alone. A year ago. when the treasury was
being emptied by the endless chain and
when it was doubtful from month to month
whether the government would be able to
maintain the gold parity of all its paper
currency. nobody doubted the necessity of
currency reform. IT is as important now
it was then though the dangers of the
present system are not as imminent. Be-
cause one storm has passed it must not be
supposed another will not come. Secretary
Gage touched on this point in his address
at Boston. Referring to the disposition to
postpone such reforms he used a homely
when it rains he said. 1.-The
roof is not mended because it rains. When
it is fair, the roof does not leak, and the
indolent man forgets its weakness" The
next financial storm should not find US with
a leaky roof
