THE DEMAND OF THE WEST.
The Post Intelligencer of Seattle,
Washington, in These Words
Shows the Benefits of Mr..
FowIer's Financial system.

FowIer's Financial System.
What would have happened during the
last few weeks if the Fowler bill for
true banking currency, or something
modelled upon the same lines, had be-
come law2 The answer to that question
ought to be an education to those who
are stupidity protesting against it. For
there would have been no difficulty about
money to move the crops or for other
business purposes; there would have
been no call by Western banks upon
the monetary centers of the East; the
bank reserves would not have been
drawn down; there would have been
no stringency, no high rates for money,
no disturbance of prices and no demand
and no reason for any sort of relief from
the treasury department.
This is what would have happened. AS
soon as there was an active demand for
cash to move the crops. the banks of
the SECT ions where the crops are pro.
duced would have prepared, under the
law, to meet it. Each of them would
have exercised the right to issue addi-
tional circulation. up to certain pro-
portion of it's paid-up capital. This cir
culation would have been secured by the
assets of the issuing bank, and also by
the guarantee fund provided by them all
for the joint security of their notes.
Thus there would have been produced at
demand an ample supply of money for
present needs, perfectly secured, ORR
ginating just where it was needed and
applied to the transaction of the bust
ness of the country.
This additional circulation would have
paid a considerable tax to the govern
ment; enough to secure its retirement
as soon as the crops we're moved and
there was no longer any necessity for
it's existence. 1t would have appeared
when there was a demand for it, dis.
appeared when the demand ceased. and
no other part Of the country would have
been affected and no branch of business
would have suffered.
The old trouble in this country, the
fact out of which grew the entire silver
and cheap money agitation, the source
of the danger of the past and the dangers
of the future, is the lack of any general
study or understanding of monetary laws
and principles by the people. Therefore
it is most important that the public
should study, should understand and
should heed the plain and simple lesson
taught not only by this last but by every
financial strlngency that occurs.

The great success of the entertain
ment was not only in the beautiful
arrangement for the comfort OF every
one, but in the charming welcome
accorded each guest and the general
air of good oomradeship which car
ried all the guests back to the old
Morristown when parties" were
given to which people went for a
good time and real enjoyment. The
tier on tier of seats in the gallery
filled with beautiful women in even
ing dress was a sight long to be
remembered. One naive remark
was overheard in the gal
lery during the evening. "Who
did this electric liRhting?" said
some one, "Oh' was the answer, the
same people that did the Metropolitan
Opera House for Prince Henry, and it
as just as we'll he should practice on
the Prince before he did it in Morris
town.

Up to very recently miner sending in 9
few tons or even few carloads of ore has
been obliged to accept Whatever price the
Trust pleased to name for the ore, with the
result frequently of losing about 30 per
cent Of the real values in the ores. This
has led to the erection of outside heavy re.
duction plants.

Good wins Weekly: Hon. ii. +. Bar
tine came through Salt Lake on his way
to Nevada OIL Tuesday last. He has been
absent from the old State seven years,
since which time he has been writing and
talking for the right in half a dozen
States. A very sterling man, one Of
God y nobIemen is Mr.. Bartine. He was
q very splendid soldier, when boy, in
the great Civil war. and ever since as
lawyer, writer, speaker he has sought to
serve his country even as he did as q
soldier. We shall expect to hear his
voice when the autumn campaign in Ne
vsds comes on, and all who hear it will
be impressed with the absolute sincerity
and Americanism Of the speaker. Could
the world be filled with such men as Bar
tine there would be no need of set rules
for the government of society or the
