No Fife. On This Paper.

The change in the form of our paper this week is not caused by a change in the weather, or by the wave of prosperity. or from seeing SO much additional feminine beauty in town this week adorned with every grace that makes woman an earthly angel. but it is made to suit the size of the paper we have in stock.
 Our readers will observe that the change does not diminish the amount of reading matter, and that it is made up of live newsy articles with an abundance of local events. It isn't our aim to have no two issues of the paper exactly alike if it can possible be avoided.

CoNoMY SHOULD BE pRACTiCEp.

CONOM1 1 sIIOULD bE TRACI NbD'
 One of the most expensive Iuxurics of a territorial government is the judicial department. The judges are not dependcnt upon the citizens and taxpayers for their official position. and they take their own time n 'l',- charging the duties of their office.
 In the states where judges are elected by the people the judges will dispose of from fifty to one hundred cases in week at less expense than a dozen suits tried in this territory. The reason is that the juries ia the states are kept constantly employed. and in the territory they are idle most of the time and drawing two dollars per day from the taxpayers.
 There are many other expenses incident to holding courts which could be dispensed with. aud the taxpay CTS relieved il the judges would only push business in term time. It is very ex- pcnsiye to only try small case day or only hear an argument on motion or demurrer.
 It is true the judge draws salary and long sessIon is no more expen-i sire than short one so far as he is concerned. but jurors, witnesses and elients draw no salary and the ex- pense of their attendance, especially the two first named come of of tue taxpayers which is a great wrong when it could be avoided by the Judge pushing business and praclicing econ oiny.

 .at:.A few weeks ago the editor was taken with very severe cold that caused him to be in most miserable condition. It was undoubtedly bad case of la grippe and recognizing 1t as dangerous he took immediate steps io s,riag about speedy cure. From the advertisement of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and the many good recom- mendations included therein, we con eluded to make first trial Of the medicine. To say that it was satis- factory in it's results, is putting It very mildly. indeed. It acted like magic and the result was speedy and yermanent cure. We have no hesi- iancy in recommending this excellent cough remedy to anyone afflicted with a cough or cold in any form. -"lhe Banner of Liberty" Libertytown, Maryland.

THE CAUSE GROWING.

That the repeal Of the ten per cent
tax on the issues Of State bank notes Is
gaining ground is as clear as the noon
DAVIS sun 10 those who watch the &C.
velopment OF events. Until within the
last few months the New York Journal
Of Commerce would not listen TO any
suggestion Of it. But recently light has
broken upon the mind Of this representa-
tive commercial journal, and 1t Is now
beginning to see that the notes OF state
banks are the true and only proper cur
rency for our people.
In an editorial article of a day or so
back upon the speech Of Mr.. John p.
Branch, Of this city, before the Detroit
Convention Of Bankers, in which 1t en-
tirely approved of Mr.. Branch's views,
the Journal of Commerce made the fol-
lowing remarks:
or we may strike out on a wholly new
line and authorize the issue of notes by
state banks based upon general assets
under Federal supervision. This is what
the country must come TO; it is sustained
blythe best financial Judgment; it is APP
proved by the experience of Canada, MI.
walkers description of which we COM
mend 10 every reader and 1t is supported
by our own experience. The general
public. which looks az history with no
perspective sense and to which every
thing back Of its personal experience Is
con the fat" knows only that before ma
tional banks there were wildcat and
cred dog banks and il supposes that
there was no interval between the two;
that one began where the other ended
The fact IS that while a few reckless
experiments IN banking survived till near
the war the era of wildcat" banking
ended pretty soon after 1910; the panic OF
1871 marked its climax; New York, New
England. Indiana. Louisiana and other
parts of the country had admirable bank
ing systems fifteen or twenty years at
least and often for much longer, before
the war began; that even Illinois and
other states whore the wildcat era
lasted the latest were on the road 10 re-
form before the Federal Government
meddled with the bank currency; ana
finally that the 10 per cent tax on State
notes was not imposed 20 deliver the peo-
pie from the bad note issues but TO compel
reluctant banks 20 buy bonds, and IL was
advocated by Mr.. John Sherman and
others because IN parts OF the West the
good notes OF Eastern State banks were
driving the notes Of local bad banks out

,of use. u was in the interest OF local
hanks that Mr.. sherman urged this torci-
bile extension Of the national system ana
tbe determination Of the banks of issue
of New England and New York.
Now. that Is real, old-fashioned. sensi-
bic talk. The Journal Of Commerce has
been a student Of The Times and 1t IS at
last beginning TO learn that banking Is
the most indispensable Of all business to
the people. that It ought to be just as
free as any other business, and that every
state bank ought 70 have the same right
to issue its notes that every merchant
has.
That IS what the Constitution OF the
United States intends shall be our IMAM
ciaI condition, that was our financial con-
dition until the war came on and under
It, we had the best system OF currency
that any people ever had.
The cause IS growing, and there Is yet
hope that the people may recover their
lost rights.

Mr. BoIes is quite right In saying that

so that each dollar issued by the govern

was made and would avoid It next time.

The wave Of prosperity that Is now
sweeping over the country has not struck
Mr.. Bryan. Prosperity IS the one thing
Mr.. Bryan cannot stand. Even Senator
PETER has now forsaken him.
When asked at Kansas city the other
day by reporter what he had to say
about the prospects for 1900, Mr.. PETER
pulled his whiskers and said:

ire of a great disturbance, he said, nut

unless Mr. Bryan br1adens out IL VIII
leave him high and dry. The silver ques-
ton is not the only issue of Importance

IL is not even the most important one.
Free silver alone cannot accomplish any
thing more than give us Ntte more

The more we hear OF prosperity the less
we shall hear OF Bryan. Not loug ago he
was travelling through the country Wg-
ing the. silyerites Of an parties to stand
together, and Populists, Silver Democrats
and Silver Republicans all seemed dis
posed TO give heed o. his advice. But in
Ohio the Populists refused 10 unite with
tho Democrats in Iowa they also stand
alone. and in Virginia a proposition from
the Popullsts for fusion was rejected by
the Democratic Convention

MIR. JONES AND THE SENATORIAL

Some few days ago in discussing the
the opposition by Senator Daniel and
the advocacy OF Hon. w. A. Jones OF the
primary plan for selecting Senators, we
used the following paragraph:
Now. we agree entirely with Mr. Jones
purpose and we will most cordially back
his plan or some other plan with the
same object but on the Jones side OF the
case there IS not that apparent self-for-
getfulness that we see on the Daniel
side. Jones was playing a strong card
for Jones. For, II Martin should be put
out Of The way there would be Few men
who would stand q better chance 10 be
struck by senatorial lightning than the
Jones OF the Northern Neck.
A friend thinks that we do an injustice
to Mr.. Jones IN these words, and considers
that the paragraph IS misleading in that
It apparently implies that Mr. Jones ad-
vocated the plan in the interest OF person
al political ambition
This was far from our purpose or in
tent. We hold that in championing this
popular plan Mr.. Jones was building for
himself strongly IN the minds and hearts
OF the people and that in carrying this
fight to a victory he would naturally re-
ceive. as he should, the grateful apprecia-
ton Of the people.
Mr.. Jones at least proved that he had
studied the primary plan, and therefore
endorsed and advocated it, while Senator
Daniel said. IL confess gentlemen / have
never studied the primary system at an, p"
and he charged Mr. Jones with being mi
mical to Senator Martins interests. and
used his personal influence 10 defeat the
measure.
Senator Daniel stated IN tho beginning
Of his speech that the responsibility Of
advising the convention upon this sub
ject came TO him unsought
lie gave for the moment his personal
influence for his friend Senator Martin
without regard TO what a majority Of the
convention would likely have preferred.
1t IS a dangerous precedent for safe
leaders should have no personal wishes to
subserve when they advise the people on
public questions.
