PRESENT DAY THOUGHTS.
BY G. Grosvenor Dave.

To Young Men-Fighters.-A why
fighters? Because every young man
that amounts to anything is a fighter
in some form Or another Out of the
mouth CT the most contemplate of all
the contemplate Kings of Israel comes
up through the centuries Just the very
right word for young men, fighters:
Let not him that girdeth on his har-
ness boast himself as he that putteth
it off,
Our chief weakness is that we utter
great sounding phrases of what we can
do, and will do; and then too many of
US go out and do not do. The time for
boasting is not when the battle is be-
ing fought, but when the battle is won.
When that time comes, however, the
genuine battle winner does not care to
boast. Truly, therefore young men,
there is no time when boasting Is
timely. How small the self confident,
self proclaiming man looks when he is
compelled to crawl back defeated 1t
is true in every relation of life. The
man who boasts is the weakest man,
the man who swaggers is the most
cowardly man, the man who puffs him
self out is the quickest to give in, the
man who gets there is the one who
says little but thinks much, and then
interprets his thoughts into action
-
Young men, fighters; the least of all
the real testings of life are the physical
battles. In certain battles a certain
| amount of brute force and lack of
siensitiveness stand in good stead; bit
the real battles wherein the weak and
small can come out strong and great
are the battles of daily conduct. They
are not won in one great rushing at
tack, but day in and day out your
skirmish line is kept in constant alert
ness by the efforts of lurking foes, who
seem SO often, no matter how great the
rebuff, to come back sly and strong
again. ,fstxf
/ know it Is a favorite way among
preachers to insist that the battle Of a
mans soul keeps ON throughout the
whole of life. I believe that this is
only paIAy true, for when a man has
passed through the slippery years from
Is to 30 the result will be. If a good
fight has been fought, that his mature
years will find him blest with definite
ness of character and a power of vic
torious resistance. These will gradu-
ally carry him away from the gnat-
like annoyances of the skirmish line
| and place him where he is not con-
stantly reminded of the enemy's an
proach.
So young men, fighters; strive on q
few years at least and you will be con-
scious of more placid way. And the
| enjoyment of that placid way, when
You walk along the mountain tops of
self-mastery and look down upon the
darkness where you have had your
struggles is ample repayment Tor every
| contested step that led up to it.
No great hight is attained at one
leap. No great strength is gained by
one exercise. No great mind is ma
tured by one effort. Above all, no
great, strong, precious, enduring char
aeter comes except by buffetings with
/ in and without that make of you,
young men, fighters in the best sense

The Monetary Problem.


of it's existence, the big pawnbroker,
just like the little pawnbroker of to-
day, threw up his hands and told Lin
coin, in effect, that if the government
was all the security he had to offer, they
would have to charge IL per cent. inter-
est. Lincoln's eyes were then opened to
the fact that Shylock had but one God,
and that was Mammon. He turned
away from the usurer, as he could bor-
row only on pawnbroker's terms, and
issued $60,O00,O00 of one-interest bear
ing money, and it proved as good money
as any in the world. It was then that
these same bankers came to the govern
ment and said: Don't make any more
money; we will let you have all you
want at the lowest rates." Lincoln's
experience with the money power had
taught him that it was constituencies,
ruthless and cruel. Therefore his pre-
diction of the effects of it's enthrone-
ment in this country was not mere
guess. He know. The people lost their
best friend and the money power it's
greatest foe in the death of Abraham
Lincoln.

Allison, in his "History of Currency
says: ITO retain the circulating me-
dunn of nation at stationary or de-
clining amount, when it's numbers are
rapidly increasing, and their transac-
tons are daily augmenting in numbers

would be to af1ix limit to the issuing
of rations to an army at time when
the number of soldiers it contained was
constantly augmenting, or to reduce
the quantity of oil used in a machine

pliance were always on the increase

MONETARY VIEWS.
OF the New French Presidential. Lou
bet IL an Ardent Bimet-
alli8t.

The following interesting paragraph
appeared recently in the Manchester
Guardian from it's London correspond
ent:
IAN interesting fact about the new
president of the French republic is that
Nj. Loubet was for some time president
of the French Bimetallic league. He
only resigned that position when elect
ed president of the senate. M. Meline
succeeded NJ. Loubet as president of the
league, and held that office till he be-
came prime minister. Both statesmen,
between whom exists a warm personal
friendship. are still ardent supporters
of an international monetary arrange
ment, and M. Loubet's elevation to the
presidency of the republic may have an
important bearing upon the Indian cur
rency question should the committee
which Sir Henry Fowler presides over
recommend Sir Forbes Adams plan to
our government as satisfactory set
Element. That plan is that the Indian
mints should be reopened to silver, pro-
vided some other leading nation or ma
tons would open theirs to silver as well
as gold at ratio which would give
a stable exchange value to the rupee
at shilling pence, the English
monetary system being left as at pres
ent. Many monometallists engaged in
commerce, it is understood, approve of
this suggestion, while bimetallists
generally are said to be preparing to &C.
quiesce in it, ,%.*. { IS. s.zz .s.s

ALL MONEY IS SOVEREIGN.
No Discrimination Should BE Allows d
Between Our Various Kinds
of Money.

All money should stand on an equal
footing and be interchangeable at par,
and no inconvenience will ever be ex-
perienced by the government in sus-
tanning such custom if we have hon.
est laws honestly enforced. The first
demand notes or ''greenbacks' issued
by the government in 1S61-62 kept pace
with the price of coin and never depre-
ciated in value-because they were
made receivable for all public dues, the
same as gold. They were not even
legal TENDER" but they kept company
with gold through all the period of the
lowest depreciation of legal tender
greenbacks. In March, 1868, when de-
probation reached it's average, gold
brought 1551z in legal tender notes, and
demand notes brought 153, and this
practical parity between the two kinds
of money was sustained throughout.
Legal tender greenbacks deprecated
because, and only because, they were
by special act of congress excluded
from payment of duties on imports and
interest on government bonds and
notes. This act was forced through
congress by the influence of the bond
holders and the agents of the Roths-
childs. 1t was savagely attacked in a
speech by Thaddeus Stevens, delivered
in the house of representatives on the
goth of February, 1862. Among other
things, Mr.. Stevens said: II have a
melancholy foreboding that we are
about to consummate cunningly de-
vised scheme, which will carry great
injury and loss to all classes of people
throughout the union, except one.
< 1t (the legal tender act) makes
two classes of money-one for the
banks and brokers and another for the
people. 1t discriminates between the
rights of different classes of creditors,
allowing the rich capitalist to demand
gold and compelling the ordinary lend
err of money on Individual security to
receive notes which the government
had purposely deprecated. 4 y
But now comes the main clause. All
classes of people shall take these notes
at par for every article of trade or con-
tract, unless they have money enough
to buy United States bonds, and then
they shall be paid in gold. Who are
this favored class? The banks and
brokers and nobody else"
Even at that early date the Roths-
childs had their grip on the throat of
our government, and they were strong
enough to force their measures through
congress. AS result of this scoun-
drelism and national robbery, the peo-
pie of the United States paid, in gross
profits to the national banks, between
1866 and 1898, period of ~ years, the
almost fabulous sum of 5000, 1874, $50,
or $49G, 13S,476 more than the entire cost
of the civil war; and they are still pay
ing on the same account, while the
banks have meanwhile doubled their
holdings by means of the gigantic crime
