LEGAL TENDER CURRENCY.
Amount Required In Any Country
Depends Not Alone on the Popu-
Iation-England's Policy.

The per capita of legal tender cur
rency required in any country depends
not simply upon the population, but
also upon commercial activity and dis
tance and cos, Of transportation to mar
ket.
The United States requires o per
capita than any other civilized nation,
in consequence of the extent Of terri
tory. intelligence and activity Of the
people. but j, actually hasless.
II the United States. as shown by W.
c. Jones. had only the average per cap
ita Of England. France and Germany,
there would now be $50 per capita OF
availablel legal tender currency. amount
ing to $500. 000. 000, instead of n e
tenth OF that amount.
A gold standard and currency con-
traction has been the avowed and per-
sistent policy Of Great Britain for near
ly a century.
When. by accumulated wealth. she
became the creditor nation Of the
world and was in the market for the
purchase OF raw material and bread
stuffs from foreign countries. her bank
ers and statesmen perceived that her
policy was TO make money scarce and
dear.
The result was TO increase thereby
its purchasing power, and. as her most
eminent statesmen and leaders have d.
clared. TO enable her 10 purchase bread
stuffs and raw materials at half price
and secure from debtor nations in re
payment Of loans twice as much as was
received by them when the loans were
contracted. This was eminently sue
cessful, but not honest-H. Haupt, in
Chicago Dispatch.

DOLLARS THAT ARE DEAR.
tng from the People Like .
Thief IN the Night.

They say you ought not 10 agitatA.
II Is a poor cause that will shirk in
quiry. The cause that breads ~investi-
CATION needs il. OF course. the burglar.
with his pistol at your head. will adj
wise you to be quiet until his contem-
plated operations are peacefully per-
formed. He is against agitation.
The testimony Of the Lexow commit
tee showed that Mr.. Havemeyer and Mr..
Searles are against agitation. why
said they-you reE.ember the testi-
mony; l do not quote IL literally, but
what they said in effect was this: III
this kind Of thing keeps on. IL every
legislature that meets is going TO ap-
point a commission TO investigate cap
ital. capital will get timid. and capital
will move out and leave you alone with
out any capital"
ITO be sure. the testimony showed
that we formed this combination for
the purpose Of forestalling the market.
Of running competition and Of placing
the great consuming masses Of the peo-
pie absolutely at our mercy. That 10
true; but when II appears to be true
1t discourages us, and therefore You
have got TO stop this investigation BUSH
ness or 1t will have a serious reflex 40
ton upon the prosperity of the coun-
try"
Now. the greatest trust Of all is the
money trust.
The people Of the United States are
aroused. Demos has been asleep for
generation. He has awakened. and the
continent shakes under his tread. Let
the oppressor beware, for the day Of
accounting is at hand. The common
patriotism of rhe American people can
be depended upon when the issue has
been once made clear.
All great political questions finally
come TO wear a moral complexion, and
then they are soon settled. And they
are settled right. or you and must be-
lieve In a malevolent instead Of a mer-
eiful God. They must bring books
nay. whole libraries-to prove that
slavery was an economic mistake; and
the people went on with their busi-
ness, and slavery grew.
Eat when some d~evout, earnest. sin
cere men drove home TO the public con-
science that slavery was morally wrong,
from that homer the institution was
doomed.
We may also make long speeches and
write thick treatises to show how the
parity Of the metal may be maintained
and give crowded statistics Of the pro-
duction Of gold and silver and the his
tory of prices.
But when the people of this great
nation shall finally have made up their
minds that the gold standard. as un-
| perceived as a thief in the night. is con-
stantly stealing from one man for the
benefit OF another, stealing from the
man who Is least able to lose anything
and giving it to a nan who least needs
10 have anything bestowed upon him;
when they begin to see that the gold
standard is an instrument Of oppres-
sion and moral wrong and without de-
Tense. then the American people will
rise and put down not only the leather
trust. the sugar trust, the coffee trust
and all the other trusts in trade, but
also the greatest trust Of all, that trust
which controls the money. the ultimate
money OF the world.

Niyin, climb out Of his way. leaving the
lad TO make the same leap untram-
melcd. and to follow him as he toiled
along The face of the wall, until easier
travelling was reached.
The feat was for the hunter 10 make
the leap Of eight feet. and TO land on
the narrow ledge SO lightly that there
would he no rebound. for the slightest
would throw him backward, and ii was
impos sibie for him 10 turn so as to
Jump more than one-half the distance
to the rock from which he first sprang.
a more delicate feat cannot be i'm
agined, and il would be hard 10 find an
athlete that would attempt it.; but
pausing only long enough to lay aside
his baggage and carefully TO poise
himself. Frohmaur gathered his mus
Giles and made the leap just as NiviE
came up behind him.
The heart of the boy throbbed fast
for be felt more misgiving than did his
parent. and unfortunately il was well
founded.
The veteran chamois hunter landed
on the ledge. seemingly as lightly az a
feather. lie had gagged the distance
and the effort required with marvellous
skill; but there was just a trife of a
rebound.
He threw IN his arms, desperately
clutchingforsome slight protuberance:
but, alas, there was none, and nothing
could save him from going backward
but for the presence of mind displayed
by his som.
just as the father was in despair.
something pushed against him. and he
Immediately recovered his balance.
"Are you safe. father?"
As the boy asked the question. he
was leaning forward over the ravine.
with the crooked end of the staff
pressed against Frohmaur's back.
Xivin was quick TO detect the miscal-
culation Of his father. and h, saved him
by the a%rtifice which was 10 simple
that nerhaps it was all the more re-
markable on that account.
And then. incredible as !; may seem.
Nivin. the daring boy. without casting
aside his staff or sack. took the same
perilous leap. the father uttering no
protest, for he felt that such dangers
were a part Of the profession he had
adopted.
xiyin accomplished the perilously
delicate feat successfully, and climbed
after his father without accident.
Shortly after. the dead chamois was
found. and late at night they reached
their home in the mountain valley far
below.-Golden Days.

Steadily and carefully they went up

been their destination for TIE last two
hours.
Our friends were now within safe rifle
shot, and the father had given Niyia 10

a veteran. therefore, thar the lad pointed
his rifle. took deliberate aim and fired.
Before the smoke lifted from the muz-

to its feet, make a couple of bounds.

cliff.
They were pretty certain where the
dead animal would be found, and the
hunters began picking their way DOWN

The hooked slaves they carried were
indispensable. it may be said. and they
used them with the skill Of the Alpine
guides.
Frohmaur was some distance in adj
vance OF Xivin, when il became neccs-
sary for him to make a dangerous leap,
which may thus be described:
Achasm several hundred feet in depth
yawued before them. Directly In front
was a solid mass of rocks. reaching hum
dreds of feet upward, and a strong ledge
extended along the face of this wall. Of

was placed upon il.
But the frightful difficulty will be
seen. II was eight feet away. and the
ledge was no more than eight or ten
inches in width. 1t was as IL a person
should leap directly against tae side
of a brick house, at a great distance
from the ground, there being a projec-
tion of several bricks on which to sup

When il is remembered :nat each
hunter carried his staff and reick sack,

From a democratic standpoint

nothing could be more desirable than
the announced policy Of Hon. Mark
Hanna TO glut his vengeance on the
Ohio republican convention at Column
bus. If his programme be carried out
II the Kurtz-McKisson delegates are un-
seated and Gov. Bushnell is insulted by
being ignored in the platform-there
will not be enough left of the republican
ticket this fall to furnish material for
a decent wake. Let Marcus prance gay
ly on. He canno be ousted from his
seat In the senate, but he can work his
own ruin as boss Of Ohio. And a ma
tional boss who doesn't control his W
state doesn't last long. Marks fond
ness for a club as a political argument
will accomplish his undoing and that Is
the consummation to be wished.-Chi-
cago Chronicle.
