THE WAY THEY DO 1T.
GOLD STANDARD RErIRES
MUCH PAPER MONEY.
And Replaces II with Interest Bearing
Bonda-Gen. Warner Assalls tho Gront-
or Infamy Of tho Brltlsh.Amorlcan
Money system,
How Can It no Maintained.

The gold standard can be- main
talned In this country only by limiting
the paper currency to an amount less
than we would have II there were no
paper, to which may be added our dis
tributlve share Of the gold that would
be displaced by the paper and then
making the paper vary as a purely gold
currency would vary. In that way the
gold standard can be maintained, II q
debtor nation can maintain II at all,
but In no other way. Such q currency
would not be elastic In the sense In
which that term is now generally used,
but 1t would be as elastic as n purely
gold currency would be, and Its action
would be practically automatic. | may
add here that II an elastic currency, or
a paper currency Of any kind, will pre-
vent the outflow OF gold at such times
by keeping up prices, then the stand
ard will 60 down. II would be at such
times, too, when prices are rising and
speculation rife that the demand for
currency would be greatest, and II cur
rency were supplied In answer to bus
iness demands and to sustain rising
prices, then payments abroad would
have to be made in gold, and sooner or
later collapse would come. In other
words, to maintain the gold standard,
prices must be allowed to fall, indeed,
must be made to fall, when necessary
to prevent the outflow Of gold, so as
to permit the payment OF what we owe
abroad with commodities, instead of
with gold. And II the Issue Of currency
at such times tends, as 1t would, to
prevent lowering of prices, then 1t
would help on the export of gold and
hasten to collapse that must follow
any considerable export Of gold. An
elastic currency therefore, Of the kind
proposed Is inconsistent with the gold
standard. And in this connection It
should be remembered that as a debtor
nation We are liable to be called on for
gold when otherwise we might be Sc
cure from such demands, and the
lower prices go the more commodities
1t takes to pay debts abroad. Never
theless, to maintain the gold standard
prices must be kept at the gold level
There is no other way.

An interesting unpublished poem by
Alfred de Musset has been discovered
among De Musset's manuscripts. It
is a sonnet addressed to the moon, and
therefore headed Luna" The SON
net ends with the following fanclful
image, which, roughly translated, is:
Seeing your white fingers mark the
green cloth of my curtains, I ask you,
dear one, whether perchance you have
not let your glove fall upon my open

Decentralization,

The claim SO familiar to us all thai
"overproduction" has been the cause
10 itself an admission that the condi-
lions have been bad And think of the
absurdity of the claim that great ma
lions have been thrown into distress by
producing too much of the things that
are necessary for the sustenance and
comfort of mankind, and especially
when the suffering has been among the
very classes who do the producing. II
that be true, We stand face to face with
an utterly hopeless future. II overpro-
duction is the trouble, then the remedy
must be to check protection. And how
can production be checked without
throwing more people out Of employ
ment, adding to the sufferlngs of tho
poor, and aggravatlng the evils com
planned of. In the name Of heaven has
the gold standard nothing better than
that to offer us?

1.-THE Gresham law is that bad money
drives out good money, but that good
money cannot drive out bad money"
The Gresham law-that bad money
will expel good"-was named after Sir
Thomas Gresham, an English mer-
chant who died some three hundred
years ago. or late there has been con-
siderable said about the Gresham law,
and as 1t Is not generally understood
by the public, shall offer few OBJ
servatlons explanatory of It. w.
Stanley Jevons In his work Money and
the Mechanism of Exchange" says
Though the public generally do not
discriminate between coins and coins,
provided there is an apparent SINH

Ing 1t, or by exporting 1t to countries
where 1t is sooner or later melted.
Some coins are sunk in the sea or
lost, and some are carried abroad by
emigrants and travellers who do not
look closely to the metallic value Of
the money. But by far the greatest
part Of the standard coinage is re-
moved from circulation by people who
know that they shall gain by choosing
for this purpose the new heavy coins
most recently issued from the mint.
Hence arises the practice, extensively
carried on in the present day in Eng
land, Of picking and culling, or, as
another technical expression is, garb-
ling the coinage, devoting the good,
new coins to the melting pot and pass
ing the old, worn coins into clrcula-
ton again on every suitable oppor-
tunity." 1t will be seen that the
Gresham law applies to monies Of one
kind of metal. There is what is called
an extension Of Greshams law that

Towards the National Fund.
Maine day" was observed in the
Butte public schools yesterday, and
several thousand children contributed
10 cents each to the national fund for
erecting a national memorial to the 2s3
marines who were murdered in Havana
harbor by the Spaniards on the 18th
Of last February. Yesterday was gen-
orally observed in the public schools
throughout the United States. and the
contribution made il known a. the
American school children's tribute to
the Maine martyrs national monu
ment. The COMMITTEES having in
charge he erection Of the monume
decided to construct underneath II q
special vault in which to place the sig
natures of all pupils of all public
schools in the United States. To carry
out this idea IL was suggested that
Thursday, May Is. be set apart ae
Maine day" In the schools for the pur-
pose Of receiving the signatures Of pu-
pills. The date was fixed upon through
out the United States in order hat all
scholars in all schools might sign at
the same time as nearly as possible.
State Superintendent Carleton Endorsed
the plan. and the schools of the state
were given an opportunity to contri-
butte to the fund at his request. The
monument committee had requested
thai teachers hold some exercises of a
patriotic character m explain to
their scholars why q grateful nation
unites to pay tribute to the memory of
the sailors and marines who were slain
in Havana harbor while In b service
Of their country No such exercises
were held in Butte. however. though
all the teachers on Wednesday and
yesterday made announcements of the
fact hat all children who wished
could sign the roll and make their 10
cent contributions. A number wanted
to contribute more. but under instruc-
tons from the national committee all
contributions from school children
were limited to 10 cents The commit
tee wanted IL understood the children
