THE GOLD LEAK.

A drain of $15,0O0,000 year in our
gold coin, disappearing no man knows
whittier, unknown even to the officials
of the United States treasury, who
have been in the habit of carrying the
lost balances over from year to year, is
too important loss to be allowed to
continue. Now that we have the gold
standard it is material to prevent it
from shrinking. If We have yard
stick it must be kept at three feet of
twelve inches each or it ceases to be a
yard stick. This ought to be as plain
as a pike staff.
Nay, more: it may be possible that

MlLlTARlSM AND TRUSTS.

publican party, and how nearly akin
are these creatures of toryism: inn

rial power in control of industry.

RoyGfNG THE PEOPLE.

In ddition TO the pernicious trusts
which, re crushing labor and imposing
yoke upon the necks of the people, a
robber monopoly is created by the Re-
publican currency bill, establishing an
absolute gold standard and refunding
the national debt as the basis for the
issue of private bank notes. Speaking
upon the subject, PENIS Grove IN. j.
Weekly thus exposes some of the in
wardness of the act:
IF the government issues note the
government sells it for labor or serv-
ice. The possessor owns it and it
draws no interest from the people. II
the government coins silver dollar it
represents labor or service in mining,
smelling and coming it. The owner
possesses it and it draws no interest
from the people. Not SO with bank
notes. They are never sold for service,
but loaned for interest payable in adj
vance. If the above amounts of silver
dollars were coined ii would require
that amount of employment for labor
TO get these bank notes needed to
take the place of that much-needed
more money for commerce will require
the people to borrow them of bankers
at per cent and cost from S12,OOO,O0O
ION s20O,00O,0OO) to s21, 100000 (on
$3.50, 000,000) more each year than now.
That prospective increase of profits to
national bankers is a big investment
on their contribution to McKinley's
campaign, fund and there will be
enough left for another contribution.
That is what is meant by sound mon
ey' and an honest dollar.
IF the American people would stop
to study and think seriously what vast
amounts they are legally robbed of
every year they would rise in revolu-
ton at the ballot box and prohibit
every corporation from issuing notes
to circulate as money and have their
own legal tender money issued by
congress as the constitution intended.
Bank notes are not legal tender 10
pay debts and national banks will not
take them for the payment Of princi-
pal nor interest on bonds due bank
from the government, the people.
They demand gold.
"a government bond is mortgage
on the houses. lands and all property
owned by the people. When the men,
bers of banking corporation deposit
that bond on your property the gov
eminent gives back the same amount
of bank notes and also interest. The
government will not give a farmer
money on first-class mortgage. They
are not capitalists. Why should bank
ers be privileged classes? Is it honest?
Is it just?"

Patti Songs for Soldiers.

The recent war concert in London
under the auspices of Lady Lansdowne
realized the enormous sum of SIS, 900.
Of course, Patti was the principal at
traction, and the London papers vie
with each other in declaring that she,
looked younger than ever in a beauti-
full pale blue silk gown covered with
diamonds, emeralds and turquoises.
Nine. Patti was accompanied during
her songs by Mr.. Frank Watkis, who
has been in constant attendance upon
the great singer throughout all her
tours since 1893. His touch is produce
tive of constant ripple of extraordi-
nary lightness and delicacy. The piano
talks to itself, as it were, yet never
leaves the voice unaccompanied. Such
a voice as Nine. PATHS needs most
sensitive accompanist-one who can
follow the varying emotions Of the
great singer throughout all her moods
and expressive cadenzas, and Mr.. Wat
kis has succeeded wonderfully in
pleasing her.

TOKEN MONEY.

Now that the gold standard has been
made the absolute standard of specu,
lation, the country is to be flooded
with token money in the shape Of
subsidy silver coins, which at the real
value of 45 cents on the dollar com.
pared with gold, is good enough tor
the people who are not bankers. II
will be paid out in wages and the
wages transferred into necessaries OF
life at gold prices.
The minis Of the United States will
be busy for some time to come in I'm.
dertaking to carry out the provision OF
the act that has just become law AID
that permits the secretary of the treas
ury to add $20,000,OOO to the stock of
subsidiary coinage. The authority to
coin silver of the smaller denomina-
lions has been obtained specifically
from time to time, but has been re-
stricted to small amounts, the support
ers Of the free coinage of silver hav-
ing systematically resisted the increase
of the supply of minor silver.
Director of the Mint Roberts, in
talking about the objects and useful
ness of the new act, as relating to
subsidiary silver coinage, said: 1.-The
new monetary act, approved March IA.
authorizes an increase of about $20,,
100000 in the stock of subsidiary silver
coin. The last authority for the issua
Of subsidiary silver was given by a
joint resolution, approved July %, 1876,
in preparation for the resumption OF
specie payments. 1t authorized the
issue of an amount which. together
with the fractional paper currency
outstanding, should at no time exceed
$50 100000.
June 9, 1879, the act providing for
the redemption of subsidiary silver in
lawful money was passed, and forth
with our old quarters, dimes and
| halves, which had been driven to the
West Indies and South America by our
paper money, began to return.
| They were presented for redemp-
ton, until the treasury held over $780,
100000. In this way the $4,000 600
limit was exceeded, for the treasury
officials paid this stock out in the reg
ular course Of business until it was
practically all absorbed.
The present stock in the country
thus reached about $S0OO00OO. Under
the new law it may be 500, 900, 900, and
bullion purchased under the Sherman
act may be coined. The new authority
was sorely needed, and will scarcely
suffice for the growing needs Of the
country more than five or six years.
