NO ISSUE OF BONDS.
wLL NOR Dc NECESSARY.
sshstor Teller Says silver Men VIII Not
Consont to 1.-THE Government Can
Raise Enough by Internal Tnxcs and
Issue Of Treasury Notes.

New York, April 1S.-The Worlds
correspondent telegrnphs: "Thcre will
be no issue of bonds for war purposes
until every other available mems of
raising revenue is exhausted" said
Senator Henry NJ. Teller, the leading
silver man Of the United States SEN
ate this evening. 1--WE do not antici-
pate such very long war, unless we
get into complications with some 9TH
er powers, but, speaking for myself.
do not see any necessity of issuing
bonds at all. Not even the most en-
thusiastlc gold man of this ndministra-
tion thinks seriously of issuing gold
bonds, for that would be impossible.
Under no possible circumstances would
that sort Of thing be agreed TO-"
1.-THE silver men who have given this
subject careful consideration, are un-
able to see why there should be any
issue at all, and in light Of their pre-
ent Information 1 am pretty sure 1t
would be safe to predict that they
would never give their consent.
First thing that would be done
would be n revision of the tariff laws
and the imposition of additional inter
nal revenue taxes for war purposes. In
times of war people will not object to
that, but they would endure the bur-
ueHs uuueT Sucu circumstances WIFI
out complaining.
I'VE should put additional tax of 81
on beer and a tax of ten cents pound
on tea and three or four cents pound
on coffee. We could impose tax in
conformity with the recent decision of
the Supreme Court and place tax on
bank checks and deeds and negotiable
instruments. Through this plan, ex-
tended as the exigencies of the Occa-
sion require. 1t would be an easy
matter to raise $50 100000 n year.
IF this should not be sufficient to
prosecute the war and keep up the
revenues, there would still be no use of
Issuing bonds and am sure the prop
Ositi0n would be objected to. Bonds
carry interest, and the debt could be
met with nOn-interest bearing obli-
cations
'Sllver men would favor the issue of
treasury certificates, redeemable In
coin at the pleasure of the government.
These would be an obligation, just as
bonds would be, they would not draw
interest and the government could float
them Just as easily and get all the
money 1t needs. If issued In denomi-
nations small enough, these certificates
would circulate ns money. OF course
it would initiate the currency system
somewhat. but the country could stand
1t without harm. They would not be
nearly so heavy n burden upon the
people as bonds"

Skimper had novel newspaper ex-
pcriencc in Frontierville. He landed
in there with his outfit in a prairie
schooner drawn by four mules. His
staff consisted of shock-headed boy
that did everything from sweeping the
sanctum, when the accumulation OF
paper and other things amounted to
blockade, to reporting the local events
by word of mouth while Skimper put
them into English, says the Detroit
Free Press.
The town grew like mushroom, for
1t became the center of big mining
boom, and money was plenty. For
tunes were quickly made and 1t was
not long before there sprung up a
local aristocracy, based solely on a
foundation of riches. Skimper, with
the true instincts of democracy, ridi-
culed this in a new town that had no
communication with the outer world
except by wagon trains and pony ex-
press. The indignant women raised
crusade against him and 1t was not long
until his advertising patronage dwin-
died to less than a starvation revenue.
Skimper was game and swore that he
would sink with his colors flying. He
found his chance for sweet revenge Just
as he realized that he must give up the
fight and seek for pastures new. There
was branch of national female or
ganization in Frontierville, especially
popular because OF its liberal contribu-
tions to the cause. 1t was invited to
the general roundup of the society at
st. Louis and concluded to go in
body. Just as this was settled Skim
pers paper came out with a page of
summer styles, stolen from a paper

a premium. When the Frontiersyille
delegation marched into the big con-
vention hall. wearing antiquated bon
nets. lettering crinoline and full-size
bustles. proprfety and fratcrnal feeling
combined could not restrain the laugh

plish the transformation the styles of
the visitors were brought UP to date,
but Skimper was never forgiven and he
took retreat in little town as far east
as the Atlantic ocean would permit.

War and Business.

War is the most destructive, waste
full and expensive business In the
world. Every life that is sacrificed is
lost to productive industry. every gun
that is fired shoots money into the air
ana every dollar that is paid to Off
GERS, soldiers and sailors comes out of
the pockets of producers. War is es-
sehtially waste. The apparent and
temporary stimulus it may give to
business Is far more than counterbnl-
anced by the great waste of lives,
money and energy, and the long train
OF taxes 1t always leaves behind.-In-
