CURRENCY DELUsIoSs.

House on Monday that he had voted for
Q great many CURRENCY measures that were
humbugs OF course ne did not mean
TO imply that he thought they were hum
bugs when he voted for them. That, he
has found out since. The great majority
of the representatives who have bean In
Congress. as long as Mr.. Doiiiver, II they
are equally as frank as he. will have to
make the same avowal. But they can all
plead that they had the great majority of
the American peopls beh,nd them in most
Of this humbuggery.
Wrong ideas and fantastic notions
with regard to currency were one Of the
legacies OF the war Of the rebellion. The
microbe that infected SO large shars Of
the American people with currency hum
bug gerry was the product Of that conflict,
., more correctly speaking, Of the des-
psrats financial expedients which were
resorted to to carry on that conflict.
Though thirty years have passed Il has not
yet been thoroughly eradinated from the
American system, though 1t Is much less
virulent than IL was, even where 1t still
