wonder ii he won't get it knocked off.
While you are musipg the train will
rush right along the Mississippi, ard
you will see fine old steamer blowing
her way up stream. Bluffs obstruct
your view now and then, and you see
across into Illinois the green fields and
well kept farms that border the Father
of Waters. You are wondering il
Illinois land is better than that of
Missouri, When you hear sudden
blast OF air and the train is standing
in front OF Jefferson Barracks. A
soldier or two walks lazily along the
fence, and out toward the quarters a
man is unloading cOrdwood. Up tue
steep steps you see the different build
ings, and wonder if it is not first rate
place to stay. A moment more and
you are speeding on. You dash under
the shadow OF bluffs, across a stretch
OF something like a garduer's farm,
and you enter the city. When you

to get your things together, aad by

The crowds at the gates are dense,
you fairly push your way to get into
the midway and along through the

hum of the city dimly geach your ears,
and you long'fo for the rustic seat Meath
the sheltering oak. As you pass up
the steps to the 18th street side, the
crowd surge5 on, and you are nearly

Currency Reform.

NM Dear Mr.. Ake:-It is an axiom,
equally as true as it is terse-that
"the way to resume is to resume" In
like manner, "the way to avoid the
efforts Of bad legislation is to avoid its
passage" At the present time, the
above subject is occupying the atten-
tion of Congress, and the bill known
as H. X. No. 1868 together with q
report thereon submitted to the House
by the Committee on Banking and
Currency; headed by Mr.. Fowler. was
ordered printed and committed to the
committee OF the Whole House on the
State of the Union, April 5, 1902, and
this bill and appended report is being
circulated as Campaign Literature by
the party now iu legislative power.
This act is stated to have for its pur-
poses, 'to maintain the Gold Standard
ETC." and more pernicious piece OF
Legislation has never been proposed.
Summarily, 1t proposes to take the
issuance Of all first currency out OF the
hands of government and place 1t in
the hands OF any or all such National
Banks who shall make themselves re-
sponsible for the redemption in gold
coin of $3.50, 100000 Of the United
States notes now outstanding, upon a
certain sliding scale graduated accord.
ing to their capital.
Against the issuance Of this paper
currency they are not to be required
to deposit any security whatever in the
Treasury o. the U. s. A., but to pay
small tax (one-fourth Of one per cent.
per annum), upon the amount actually
circulated by them during the preced-
ing six months. Also to deposit at the
time the notes are taken out, sum
equal to Eve percent. Of the amount,
as a guarantee fund, for the re-
demption OF the U. s. notes OF which
they have assumed the payment. The
notes themselves are to continue in
circulation, and not to be actually re-
deemed.
II this law is passed, 1t would be pos
sible for such men as j. Pierpoint Nor
gan, Frederick d. Tappan, and other
financial magnates to create such a
money trust, that the masses Of the
people In this country will be reduced
to financial serfdom comparable to
which no other country In the world

could show parallel. Sound the
| tocsin before it is too late, let the peo-
pie know what their lawmakers are
proposing to do, and avert the disaster
before they shall be overwhelmed by
a moral cataclysm, such as recently
engulfed St. Pierre, Island of Mar
Unique, physically by the eruption of
the volcanic Pelee.
What we need is Currency Reform
that shall take the power of creating
currency out of the hands of individuals
and center it in the hands of govern
ment. and this can only be done by
the abolition OF the National Bank
system in any shape whatever and the
establishment of United States Bank
that shall be charged with the exclu-
sive exploitation OF all paper currency
and be the recipient of all govern
mental deposits. With such a bank,
chartered upon the principles of the
Bank of England, the Bank of France
or the Reichs Bank OF Germany, cur
rency will be stable; there iced not
be any financial crises or panics. Me-
tallic money will eventually find its
level and be relegated to its proper
relations to paper currency, and the
commercial interests uf the country
will know absolutely that they are not
dependent upon the caprice of a class
OF men who by dealing in the staple of
exchange hesitate not to sacrifice hu-
manity and its interests provided they
thereby add to their own Golfers.

Yours respectfully,
| ONE OF THE PEOPLE.

"Seein' Things"

We took a journey the other day.
Went out to get new inspiration.
Some of you have heard about some
body going to "Bosting" to see things,
and this somebody started. not ex-
actly to Boosting" but out sight seeing,
and landed IN the States great metrop-
oils. This latter word is for the Train
ing School "ites" (uot Ikes) for they
have most charming lot of girls, and
some very fine looking young men up
there; and since most things need
cultivation at sthis season, suppose
that is why they have that training

our back on these scenes, and boarded

you watched the train speed by old
farms, rail fences, and fields of waiv-
ing grain? Haye you looked up from
this and seen the sky scolloped by the
hills OF the surrounding Ozarks? If

TO The JOvial City Lad.

Here's to the jovial city lad,
My friend and my colleague;
Who with shirtwaist, high collar clad,
Is dressed we know unique.
Pm pleased to see he loves the farm,
Likewise the farmers lad,
Who writes verse or spins yarn,
And never is seen sad.
But must really criticise,
The pleasant little rhyme;
This farmers lad is somewhat wise,
You've fell behind the time.
He uses wire instead of rails,
That's why he has the time,
He's seen no more to maui the rails,
Instead he writes the rhyme.
No more he rises at half past three,
He has more hours Of rest;
That's why he writes more poetree,
But sends his girl the best.
Last week you had the joke on me,
Now III take one on you;
Do others as they do unto you,
Do them, or they'll do you!

The attitude of the republican press
towards the democratic party is we'll
worthy Of note, it is so eminently
friendly to democratic leaders whose
fidelity is under suspicion. Mr.. La
mont, for instance, is regarded by the
republican press as one OF the men
whose nomination by the democrats
would save that party from political
ruin. Why the republicans should
want the democratic party to escape
political ruin is not quite clear, yet
they are really extremely solicitious.
Mr.. Cleveland would be acceptable to
them for this purpose, but as he is not
regarded as available they fail back
upon Mr.. Lamont, the creature of
Whitney whom Mr.. Cleveland took
into the cabinet and launched upon the
ways to speedy fortune of million
alre dimensions. Along with Mr.. La
mont as the republican choice for the
democratic domination comes Mr..
Olney, another product of Cleveland's
notoriously disastrous administration.
And then there are German and Hill.
Any Of these gentleman would be high.
ly acceptable to the republicans as the
democratic candidate for the presiden.

republican papers. But why do re-
publicans turn to them and beg the
democrats to nominate one Of themp
