MR. GAGE AND HIS BILL.
Has Not Yet Thrown on Influences of
the Banking Interest.


the banking Interest.
Mr.. Gage has been unable to throw
aside the influence that the banking
interests possess over him, and conse-
quently as secretary of the treasury
will never reap any great fame or be
heralded forth as a shining example
by future historians.
All that these bankers and their rep
resentative, Mr.. Gage, are looking
for is to increase further the bonded
Indebtedness of the nation, and to is
sue the money Of the country exclusive
", which they viii make as profitable
as possible to themselves by either ex-
banding or contracting the circulation,
as the case may need. American green
backs and treasury notes are as good
as gold the world over and have been
so for 20 years.
Bank notes are so only because guar
anteed by the government.
If the government backing is required
in any new scheme, then, we say, let
the government issue its own notes,
which bear no interest. If the Canadian
banking system is so good, why is if
that all such bank notes are at dis
count on this side of the border?
The only elasticity to be found in any
banking currency is in that which is de-
pending for redemption wholly upon
the private assets of the banks, and is
without government guarantee, such as
at present is the usage in this country
under the national banking act.-Buf

WEATHER MAP FOR THE LAKES.
Latest Development of Weather h.
reau Service.


The growing Importance of naviga-
ton on the great lakes has at last re-
reived recognition by the issuance OF
a monthly forecast map on the lines
that have been so successful in the
hands of the photographic bureau for
ocean navigation. The maps are in
tended to give warning to mariners a
month in advance of weather conditions
likely to be found, the results being
based on the comparison of long series
of yearly observations.
The great lakes have been under
fairly careful observation for p years,
or since the beginning of the weather
bureau. The stations have been neces-
sarily few where the thorough meth
DDS of the bureau obtain, but since the
development of the state weather bu-
reaus, with the hundreds of voluntary
observers, the mass of data on the
course of lake weather has been rapidly
augmenting. It would be safe to say
that probably no other large navigable
area in the world has been so well
studied meteorologically as the lakes.
The first map is an elaborate presenta-
ton of average fact. By means of lines,
shadings and figures, the average path
of storms over the lakes in December,
as well as their number and something
of their probable character; the direc-
ton of prevailing winds, changes in
direction that may be looked for on
the approach of a storm, with instruc-
tons enabling mariners to guess at the
probable site of the storm center from
the change in direction: data on the
prevalence of fog and some idea Of the
probable temperature, are indicated in
an Ineligible, graphic form. The map
is in line with the later development of
the department, tending to give infor-
nation available in special areas where
large business interests depend a great
deal on the weather. - Detroit Free

The Objection to Stage Coaches.

In 1862 there were, strange as it
seems. only six stage coaches running
in all England. and of course these were
only public vehicles for travellers. Even
these were a novelty, and a person
named John Crosset thought they were
such a dangerous innovation that he
wrote pamphlet against them. These
coaches" he wrote, make gentlemen
come TO London upon every small oc-
casion, which otherwise they would not
do except upon urgent necessity. Nay.
the conveniency Of the passage makes
their wives come often up, who rather
than come such long journeys Oh horse
back would stay at home. Then when
thew come to town they must be in the
wade. get fine clothes, go TO plays and
treats, and by these means get such
habit of idIeness and love of pleasure
that they are uneasy after" Even peo-
ple who come TO the city on steam ears
are sometimes similarly affected by the
visit. even unto this Philadelphia
