f1r. Fowleris" "A Benefit to the Coun-
try, An Honor to New Jersey"
Says the New YORK Press.

In New Jersey the voters of Mr..
Fowler's district should make sure to
return him to the House of Represen-
tatlves. Then the members of Con-
gress should make sure to pass his
currency measure or something drawn
on it's lines of an elastic currency
guaranteed by an asset cirucation.
In this election every Republican
in the Fifth Congress district and
every Sound Money Democrat as we'll
should make it his particular business
to see that Mr.. Fowler gets a full
vote for it is he who is author of the
Fowler Banking Bill now before
Congress providing for an asset
bank circulation and his services in
behalf of good money and sound
finance have made him conspicuous
and important figure in our national
work of recent years.
1t is such a simple thing which
Mr.. Fowlers bill proposes TO do-so
immediate in action, so sound in
principle, so sure in efficiency If
there were assets as security the cir
culation would be issued whenever
it was needed. If there were no
assets no circulation would be need
ed. for there would be no business, no
wages, no SPENDING. If there
were tremendous business and tre-
mendous assets there would be big
issue of circulation to meet the needs
of the situation. When business
diminished and the need of a cur
rency diminished the asset circulation
would be called in correspondingly.
That is an elastic currency. 1.n
elastic currency must be an asset cir.
culation.

personal generosity.
And this latter detail brings up the
fact that Mr.. Fowler is good citi-
zen alive to the needs of his fellows
and ever anxious to use his own
prosperity to help them. He has
lately offered to Elizabeth a public
library, the site for which is already
purchased, which, when finished, will
cost about $3.50, 000 The plans for
this beautiful building, now on ex-
hibition in Elizabeth. speak louder
than can words of his generous pur-
pose. But they do more. They re-
veal his study and thought on the
subject of Libraries. and his deter
mination to secure by his own dis
criminate labors as we'll as by his
means all the pleasure and instruc-
tion that such an institution can
afford.
Mr.. Fowler is no more of special
ist in his benefactions than he is as a
legislator. Let him once be con-
vinced that an object is worthy,
he will give freely TO it. His charity
is broad and unceasing, not doled out
grudgingly, but given with synpa-
thy, as one fulfilling sacred trust
Eminent as is his public position and
signal as has been his success in af-
fairs, the man himself is his own best
advocate. He is public-s spirited, sympa-
thetic, with broad views, a consider
ate Judgment mindful of his fellow
man, and therefore fitted to serve
him well. 1t should be matter of
pride for the With District to be rep
resented in Congress by a man of his
national Importance and personal
worth
