Our considerable Secretary of the Treas
ury-considerate for the welfare of Wall
street-Layman Gage, has offered to ad
vance the interest on United States bonds
due June 80, 1900, for trifing discount,
in order to put idle money in the Treas
ury into circulation to aid the banks of
New York in continuing their credit
loans or expansion, as they call it, of bus
mess, which is extending on account of
the credit loaned by the banks. There is
a certain amount of real money neces-
sarily behind, or under this credit money,
in order to give it vitality. When the
limit of credit is reached the banks be-
come apprehensve of danger and refuse
to discount the amount of paper they
formerly did, and demand payment of
their loans. This causes business men
who are running on credit, or hocus-pocus
money, much trouble and anxiety of
mind. Bills ont are falling due and if not
met their business and business standing
are injured, with prospective bankruptcy
staring them in the face.
The interest on the public debt, if all
was applied for, amounts to $26, ,ooo
This comparatively small amount is not
considered worth calling for by the banks
and money loaners, if they have to pay a
discount of two-tenths of one per cent,
and the consequence is that but trifling
sum has been demanded.
The lesson this credit system teaches is
the precarious foundation on which bus
mess rests that is placed upon it. The
mercantile business all, or nearly so, rests
on this sandy foundation. hence o5 per
cent of those in that business in the past
have failed.
The United States Treasury has ever
been presided oyer by bankers and it has
been the willing servant of the bankers,
aiding them OIL all occasions when they
called on it and frequently to the injury
of the general public. Panic after panic
has ensued and we are now preparing for
a rousing one. The banks have four
thousand millions Of credit out and the
expansion of business this credit money
is promoting steadily calls for more of the
same. If it is not still further extended
contraction will commence, and when
the rigor period to business built on
credit, sets i'll, there is great danger of a
severe chill Selling the patient and a
cyclone panic sweeping the country The
banks are now struggling against this
storm period and the United States Treas
urer is anxious to help them If a panic
comes next summer it means death to
Republican prospects, hence mighty
struggle to stave it off till after the Pres.
idential election.

Gave AWAY the Bride,

The e is custom which has
come down TO US from the rude past
that would be more honored in the
breach than in the observance,
which is that of giving the bride
away by-her father, brother, uncle
or some other person of the mascu-
line sex. To give anything away
to another person is a presumption
of ownership, as gift otherwise
would be without a title and no gift
at all.
The custom originated in an age
when the father ouned his daugh-
ters and disposed of their bodies
for price to the highest bidder or
to some sutton who pleased him
best, without much regard to the
wishes of the girl. That period in
the ascent of the Angle Saxon race
or the American branch of it at
least, has passed away and the
emblem of this slavery should have
long since gone with it, but still
remains, more as fashionable fad
than anything else, and what
should be classed as badge of
servitude and dishonor, is by de-
cree of fashion, exalted in polite
society ceremonial of honor.
The law of every State and of the
United States declares that every
woman at an age named in the
statute, shall be the owner of her
own person to dispose of her person
in marriage as she sees fit, and shall
be the custodian of her own prop
erty without let or hindrance, and
to this end, and the enforcement of
these sacred rights, the army
of the State, and the army and
navy of the United States are
pledged. Formerly the hus-
band was the absolute owner of
the wife and all her property as
soon as the knot was tied, and he
was allowed to discipline her if she
didn't carry herself just right ac-
cording to his notions, and to use a
switch, not thicker, we believe,
than his thumb at the larger end.
Those old customs have passed
away and the whipping post has
been erected for the man who beats
his wife.
With the passing Of the actual
slavery of the daughter the emblem
of it-giving her away to the groom
at the altar-should be banished
also, and no Independent, Amer.
lean spirited girl should submit to
this badge of her degradation, and
will not if she properly understands
its meaning. The bride is the only
person who has a moral or legal
right to "give away" or dispose of
herself to the groom, and he should
object to any other presumption of
ownership of her person. And such
ownership should be a joint,
mutual, undiyidable ownership.

The Power of the Gold Rriher.

Senator Carlisle when battling in the
Senate against the demonstration of sill
yer and in favor of its restoration to free
coinage in 1873, said: "The absolute and
instantaneous destruction of half the
movable property of the world, including
horses, ships, railroads and all other
appliances for carrying on commerce,
while it would be felt more sensibly at the
moment, would not produce anything like
the prolonged distress and disorganiza-
ton of society that must inevitably result
from the permanent humiliation of one
half of the metallic money of the world. :"
When Carlisle's career under Cleveland
while he was acting as the goldbng tool
as Secretary of the Treasury is considered,
we cannot refrain from exclaiming great
and mighty is the power of the briber!
