WANAMAKER'S SCHEME.
Abandoned Yankee Farms to BE Re-
stocked and Operated.

NEW YORK, Jan. g = New England's S
abandoned farms are to be reclaimed, re-
stocked and reoperated on a plan that is
primarily philanthropic and secondarily
commercial. A corporation has been formed
with the secretary of the New York Stock
Exchange at it's head to purchase arabic
land and farm buildings in the States of
Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hamp-
shire and Vermont and to resell both on
such terms as to attract purchasers in large
cities and to relieve the congested centers
of population. The plan is indorsed by John
Wanamaker. Mrs Ballington Booth, Ma
thaniel S. Roseman, manager of the
Hebrew charity fund, and William r. Ses-
sions, secretary of the Massachusetts State
Board of Agriculture. Officers will be APP
pointed here tomorrow.
1t is estimated that more than two hun
dred thousand acres of rich, fallow land,
under cultivation twenty years ago, lie idle
is the intention of those who have asso-
ciated themselves together for the purpose
10 secure by option and by outright pur-
chase all or nearly all of this vast territory,
and to populate it with material drawn
from the crowded cities. Missionary work
will be begun in large cities, principally
New York and Brooklyn, and the assistance
of all organizations interested in better
ing the condition of society will be invoked.
The president of the company is A. Willis
I.ightburn, secretary of the New York Wool
Exchange George M. Atkins is treasurer
and Charles Roblee general manager.
President Lightbourne said of the scheme:
"Our organization, while a business enter
prise, is founded on basis OF true public
spirit, and its incorporation under the laws
of the State of Maine is hailed with delight
throughout New England, for cur success
means the putting of new life and new
blood into a territory whose fruitfuness
should produce millions of revenue.

OUR PRESENT CURRENCY.
Ten Different Forms, which Are Ex-
planned by the Commission.

The people of the United States have ten
different forms of currency: Gold coins.
silver dollars, subsidiary silver coins. minor
coins, gold certificates, silver certificates.
United States notes, currency certificates,
treasury notes of 1890 and national bank
notes. The respective qualities of each the
amounts outstanding, the amounts in the
treasury, the amounts in circulation and
the respective denominations of the paper

l. Gold coins of the denominations of $2o
$40 50 and 81 go weighing 25.S grain to the
dollar and 900 fine. They are a legal ten
der in all payments at their nominal value
when not below the standard weight and
limit OF tolerance provided by law for the
single piece, and, when reduced in weight
below such standard and tolerance a legal
tender at valuation in proportion to their
actual weight, receivable for all public
dues and exchangeable for gold certifcates

The act passed Feb. 49, 1887 which became

its weight and purity are what the law re-
quires, and the certifying by the govern

tiles, II is, and 1t ought 10 continue to be,
admitted to free coinage On the other
hand, silver nickel and copper should be

be issued from, the mint only in exchange

able at the treasury in convenient multiples
for gold coin at par Under this system
there could be no arbitrary contraction
or expansion of the coin currency nor any
tampering with the standard of value. and
the people would then carry to their credit
in the leger of the Treasury Department
the profits upon the coinage OF silver, nickel
and copper.
Many of our fellow-citizens have hoped in
all sincerity that the problem of the stand
ard would be solved by international bi-
metallism. An earnest effort has been made
to realize that hope, but 1t must now be
abandoned. The only alternatives, there
fore, are the continued maintenance OF the
existing gold standard or the adoption OF
the silver standard. If the latter alternative

taken and the necessary means be adopted
to secure the stability of the gold stand
ard the credit of the country will be es-
tabhshed, the national debt can be refund
ed at lower interest rates, the surplus cap
ital of the world will come here to find
profitable investment, and our country will
enjoy the prosperity that follows a currency
system based upon a stable standard of
value.
The means necessary to establish and pre-
serve popular confidence in the continued
maintenance of the gold standard are:
!. An explicit legislative definition of the
gold standard and a pledge that it will be
maintained.
2. A requirement that all obligations, pub
lie and private, unless otherwise stipulated
in the contract, shall be payable in con-
formity with that standard.
3. The adoption of a plan for the gradual
retirement of the outstanding note issues Of
the government
AS the gold deposited for certificates cam
not be used by the government and as the
issue of gold certificates is of no advantage
to the government or to the people, there
does not seem to be any reason for their
continued issue.
