THE PRODUCTION OF GOLD.

The director of the Unites States
mints estimates that ths production of
gold this year will reach $50, 900, ,OOO-a
gain of S7,000.OOO over the quantity
produced last year in this country.
The increased production of gold with
the great decrease in the volume of
business will have tendency to make
money plentiful, in the bank vaults
and other repositories. but will have
no appreciable effect upon the volume
in circulation, and upon the increase
or decrease of the circulating volume
of money depends goods times or hard
times, as the case may be.
Any financial system is in favor of
the few individuals and against the
mass of men to the extent that its
forms encourage and stimulate the
boarding and concentration of money,
thereby Withdrawing it from circula-
tion and undermining values. until
such time that the few, who have the
money, can posses themselves. of the
property and product of the many.
The present financial system is of this
kind and it is robbing honest labor
and enterprise of the fruits of their eff
fort through forms OF investment
which we all agree to and permit by
our voices as we'll as our votes. The
public bonded debt and the mortgages
on the soil are the forms from which
the few obtain advantages and power,
as well as privilege, from the many,
and to these can be traced all of the
iniquities of the money devil which so
harass and burden the people.-East

TWO REPUBLICS.

Ex-Ambassador Eustis defines very
clearly the distiction between the re-
publican form of government of
France and the republican form of
government of the United States. If it
is as he says, there is very little simil-
arity between them them, except in
the name-republic. The government
of France is essentially autocratic.
The liberties of the individual are sub.
servient to the workings of the govern
ment. 1t is hardly more liberal form
of government than that of Germany.
and it certainly cannot compare with
England, where the people have q
voice in the affairs of the government
almost as great as in this country.
The republic of France is founded
upon the same principle of govern
ment by the people as is this country,
but its workings are entirely different.
The government, instead of being the
servant of the people, is their master,
and the same spirit of militarism is ap-
parent there as it is in Germany, and
this is what would be tolerant to free
born American citizen.
While Mr.. Eustis' comparisons of
the two countries will apply to the
present conditions of affairs, il is
doubtful if it would in few years from
now, for there is a growing tendency
on the part of the money power in this
country to establish just such an OBJ
noxious system as is in vague in
France and Germany today, either by
the military, the police or the courts,
and possibly by all three.

DURRANr's FATE UNUERrA1N.
The Murderer is still the shadow of
the Gallon.

The Murderer is still the shadow of
the Gallow..
SAN FRANCISCO, June o.-It wo |
be difficult matter to conceive case
more complex than that of Theodore
Durrant, the condemned murderer of
Blanch Lamont. His attorneys wholly
rely upon his application for writ of
habNas corpus which they hope to
make to the Supreme court of the
United States in August.
The fact that the circuit court of
appeals, while denying the writ asked
for last week allowed the appeal, has
been construed as negativing the de.
cree of death of the state court for the
present, but the attorney general is in
doubt, and although he has had several
conferences with Warden Hale, of San
Quentin prison, within the past few
days, has not yet rendered q decision.
Durant's attorneys claim that
should Warden Hale proceed with the
execution. of their client Friday, he
would be guilty of ''legal" murder.
AtJorney-General Fitzgerald enter
tains no such views of the matter, but
whether or not he would be justified
in ordering that the law take its course
is problem which has not been solved.
Should he decide to do so Durrant's
would be compelled to have
recourse to an application for an in
junction in the federal courts. If this
were denied new problem would be
inasmuch as the action itself
would be an indirect!admonition to the
warden to proceed with the execution

NATIONAL BLINKING SYSTEM.

Among the many laws upon our
statute books that are Objectionable.
there is probably none that are more
universally condemned than those
establishing the national banking
spstem and providing for regulating
banks. When the law creating
national banks was first enacted it was
at a time when the finances of the
country required revising, and it was
held up as method to induce resident
capitalists to carry the bonded debt OF
the nation and at the same time supply
a flexible and safe paper currency.
The law was consequently crude in it's
form, and the amendments that have
been added have been no improve
ment.
The real animus of the law in it's
incipency was to benefit the incorpor-
ators of national banks, to give them
an opportunity to make large profits
upon money invested in government
bonds. The bonds being at a discount
enabled the purchaser to issue
greater amount of paper money on
them than they cost, loan such money
at whatever interest he could contract.
and at the same time draw interest
upon the bonds held as security.
Through this method incorporators
of national banks made immense profit
out of the business, that overbalanced
the Inconvenience of the restrictions
The Dalles times-mountaineer. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1882-1904, 1897-06-12
DANGEROUS PROCEEDING

Theodore Durrant appears to have
another lease on life, his attorney hav-
ing applied to the federal courts for a
writ of habeas corpus, which was
denied by the lower court and the
matter has been appealed to the U. S.
supreme court. This OF course will de-
lay the execution of the murderer, and
possibly may yet result IN saving his
life.
1t is probable, however. that the su-
preme court will refuse to consider the
matter, since it has been the policy of
the federal courts to not interfere with
state courts, and this policy should
serve as precedent in the present
case. For, were. the U. S. supreme
court to recognize this appeal, and take
any steps to prevent the carrying out
of the Judgment of the state court. it
would SET a precedent that would make
the state judiciary imperative. There
would continually be a clash of au-
thority. Every case of Importance de-
cided by the state courts, whether
civil or criminal, would be carried into
the federal courts, and there would be
no end to litigation. 1t is indeed in
the interest of Justice that the two
courts should be kept widely separated,
each having distinct class of business
to consider, but neither should inter-
fere with the other. If the U. S. SUI
preme court should consider Durrant's
case, and order writ of habeas corpus
issued, it would open the gates to
system of litigation that would be
never ceasing, and would establish
precedent that would be most danger
GUS in the future.
