INITIATION.
Gold hill Provides for Exactly TAes
which Its Advocates Recent
IL Denounced.

Over 400 applications for charters
for national banks under the new
financial law have been made and most
banks now in existence have prepared
to issue circulation up to the full
amount of their capital.
This means sure and great imitation
of the currency.
What will result from this sudden
increase can be easily surmised by those
familiar with such matters. Specula-
ton will run riot and when payday
comes there will be great panic.
Another feature Of the new law 10
the fact that it is going to cause CON-
gestion of money in the treasury for
the reason that war taxes are counted
and this money cannot be used TO pay
off bonds unless they are purchased
in the open market al a premium.
When ii is realized that the excess OF
receipts for expenditures Is from S.
100000 to $l0.000.000 month, the evil
Of this surplus becomes at once evident.
1t will prove a standing temptation
for the subsidy schemes and private
enterprises will try to loot the treas
| uTy IOT their OWL cuTIcuIucHts ~
merchant marine subsidy bill 10 fair
example of this sort of enterprise.
Practically the gold hill has fastened
a perpetual national debt on the pe0-
pie of this country.
Holders of outstanding bonds which
mature within nine years can exchange
them for the new bonds running 30
years and the government can find no
way Of paying of its debt, no matter
how much money IL may have in the
treasury.
Thus. while heavily taxed. the people
are prevented from paying of the ma
tional debt.
. With initiation as one result OF the
gold bill and n perpetuation OF the ma
,ional debt as another evil. the meas
ure is certainly condemned as one OF
the most ill-advised ever passed bv con.
, gress.

THE MONEY STANDARD.
why the Debtor IL So vitality Insees
ested An the Restoratton
Of silver.

A money standard fixes the genera
range of prices, that is money valuer.
1t operates equally upon everything
that is bought or sold. IL there were no
indebtedness the nominal price OF any
species OF property would be imma-
terial The only value of money is in
it's power to purchase. In the absence
of debt money standard which made
the price of wheat rs cents would be
Just as advantageous to the farmer a.
one which made it dollar, because the
purchasing power of25 cents under the
one standard would be equal to that
of one dollar under the other. lie
would be just as rich with farm rated
in money at $3.50 as with the same farm
under q double standard rated at
81 900.
Even as to debts, the character Of
a money standard is of no Importance
SO long as they are paid under the same
standard as that under which they
were contracted. 1t is . change OF
standard operating upon pre-existing
debts by altering the terms OF the con-
tract which does injustice. II there
we're no indebtedness, even change
of standard. while it might be in
convenient, would not violate any
principle of justice. 1t is debt, ana
debt alone. which makes change from
a double metallic standard to q single
standard of gold dishonest.
OF course there are certain demands
called "fxed charges" which, so far ns
they are fixed, have in this respect
the same economic force as debts. They
are defined by saying that practically
they do not vary with other prices by
reason of the scarcity or abundance
of money. Taxes and street car fares
are illustrations of a quite numer-
Gus class. But they are fixed, not by
any force of monetary law, but by I'M
cidental considerations, mainly by GUS
tom or some form of monopoly. Un-
der normal and just conditions they
should vary with other things in nc
cordance with the money supply. Debts
are payable. however, in dollars. ana,
unlike anything else. the obligations
which they impose vary necessarily and
directly with the relative cheapness Oh

Wm. Murphy, a hobo, has a propen-
sity for throwing rocks through sa-
loon windows, and today, in corse-
quence, he is in Jail, charged with ma
licious mischief, and also has a very
sore arm, caused by a bullet which
penetrated the fleshy part of the mem
Der, near the shoulder. Murphy was
drunk, and creating a disturbance in
John Baths saloon vas thrown out of
the back door of that place. When he
recovered his balance he picked up a big
rock and heaved it through a window.
But the liquor he had absorbed and
his hasty exit had muddled his mind
and he evidently becamed confused as
regards the points of compass, for the
window through which he threw the
rock was in the rear of the saloon OF
Henry Zimmerman, against whom he
had no grievance, SO far as known.
Murphy ran away after this perform
ance and for a time it was not known
who had broken the window.
Soon afterward he showed up at Muir
phys saloon on First street, but his
tender, and as he did not exactly on
stay there was very brief and he de-
parted with the same haste and with
the same incentive that he had left
the Bath saloon. On reaching the
street, and after recovering his equili-
brium he picked up another boulder
and hurled it through one of the front
windows, the missiles lodging behind
the bar. Frank Frazer was the bar
joy such a proceeding, stepped to the
door with a pistol and shot at Murphy,
hitting the latter in the fleshy part Of
the left arm. Murphy was later arrest
ed and is now in Jail.
