and the equal power of every dollar at
all times in the market and in the pay
ment of debts the secretary of the
treasury be given additional power and
charged with the duty to sell United
States bonds and to employ such other
effective means as may be nee
thority should include the power
to sell bonds on long and short time, as
conditions may require, and should
provide for rate of interest lower
than that fixed by the act of January
IA. 1915. While there is now no COM
mercial fright which withdraws gold
from the government, but on the con-
trary, such widespread confidence that
gold seeks the treasury demanding pa
per money in exchange, yet the very
situation points TO the present as the
most fitting time to make adequate pro-
vision to insure the continuance of the
gold standard and of public confidence
in the ability and purpose of the gov
ernment to meet all its obligations in
the money which the civilized world
recognizes as the best.
ON A GOLD BASIS.
The financial transactions of the gov
ernment are conducted upon a gold
basis We receive gold when we sell
United States bonds and use gold for
their payment. We are maintaining
the parity of all the money issued or
coined by authority of the government.
We are doing these things with the
means at hand. Happily at the present
time we are not compelled to resort to
loans to supply gold. 1t has been
done in the past. however. and may
have to be done in the future It be
hoOves US, therefore, to provide at once
the best means to meet the emergency
when it arises, and the best means are
those which are the most certain and
economical. Those now authorized
have the virtue neither of directness or
economy. We have already eliminated
one of the causes OF our financial plight
and embarrassment during the years
1898. 1894. 1895 and 1896. Our receipts
now equal our Expenditures; deficient
revenues no longer create alarm. Let
us remove the only remaining cause by
comforting the full and necessary power
on the secretary OF the treasury and
impose upon him the duty to uphold
the present gold standard and preserve
the coins of the two metals on a parity
with each other which is the repeatedly
declared policy of the United States.
In this connection I repeat my former
recommendation that a portion of the
gold holdings shall be placed in a trust
fund from which greenbacks shall be
redeemed upon presentation, but when
once redeemed shall not thereafter be
paid out except for gold.

FOREIGN RELATIONS
Situation is Generally Amicable and
Satisfactory.

A review of our relations with foreign
states is presented with such recon-
mendatiOnS as are deemed appropriate.
The long pending boundary dispute
between the Argentine republic and
Chile was settled in March last by the
award of an arbitra1 commission on
which the United States minister at
Buenos Ayres served as umpire.
Progress has been made toward the
conclusion of a convention of extradi-
tiOn with the Argentine republic. Hav-
ing been advised and consented to by
the United States senate and ratified
by Argentina, it only awaits the ad-
juStment of some slight changes in the
text before exchange.
In my last annual message adver-
ted to the claim of the AustrO- -Hungar-
ian government for indemnity for the
killing of certain Austrian and Hun
garian subjects by the authorities of
the state of Pennsylvania, at Lattimer
while suppressing an unlawful tumult
of miners. September 10. 1897. In view
of the verdict of acquittal rendered by
the court before which the sheriff and

THE OPEN DOOR.

A Telephone is an Open Door through
which trade enters.
Telephone Service is business neces-
sity.
1t is to the merchant an outlet for in
formation and quotations and an inlet
for orders.
Telephone service keeps the manufac-
turer, the merchant and the consumer
in constant touch.
1t notifies the producer at whatever
distance of the variations of demand.
Telephone service increases sales by the
expedition it lends to the filing Of orders.
1t keeps the business interests through
out the country in communication with
the markets.
Telephone service saves much time and
as Time is Money, it saves MONEY.
1t costs less than an errand boy and it
does the work of commercial giant.
Telephone service between office and
residence is tremendous convenience,
and at the present message rates is an
unlmportant expense.
If one telephone SO increases business
that the 'Open Door, is crowded, open
another door; that is, have another tele-
phone-or better, a Private Branch Ex-
change, with trunk lines to the Central, I"
switchboard, and as many stations as
may be required.

YOUNG SOLDIER RETURNS.
Alfred A. DeGroot Came Home Last
Night but Avoided Reception.

Alfred A. DeGroot Came Home Las
Night but Avoided a Reception.
Alfred A. DeGroot is the first Nor.
ristonian to return from the Philip
pines. He came home last night with
an honorable discharge in his pocket,
which was earned by eighteen months
of hard service. Mr.. DeGroot re-
turned unannounced-in fact he took
precautions against having news OF
his return known in advance. He
did this not only because of his modest
nature but to avoid any public de-
monstration. A number of volunteers
to the Spanish war, who are home
now, had planned to give DeGroot
such a reception as he deserved and
it was to be one which the young
patriot would not soon forget. Ac-
acknowledgements of his plucky exper-
ience will probably be made i'll some
other way.
DeGroot left Jaro, on the Isle of
Panay, on August "a whence he went
to Manila, 500 miles distant. He re-
turned from the Philippines on the
Transport "City of Para" arriving in
San Francisco Sept. 2S. DeGroot was
with the 18th U. S. Infantry. He is
not yet 20 years old.
