Alexander Del Mar was born In the
city of New York, August 3. 1886. Af-
ter graduating at a Polytechnic, he
vas educated as a civil and mining
engineer. In 1o57 he formed the de-
sign OF writing history OF the prec-
ious metals. This led 10 his study OF
money. In 1862 he Published Cold
Money and Paper Money and In
1865 Essays on the Treasury" In
this year he was appointed director OF
the bureau OF statistics, at that time
a board OF trade. with executive func-
tions, among others the supervision OF

parent increase in the size Of the true
unit" of money, comparable, say, to
adding another inch to the yardstick
not, however, by actually increasing
the linear extension of the yardstick
itself, but by re-subdividing it so that
81 inches occupy the same space that
was formerly occupied by 36. Appar-
emily the yardstick is an inch longer;
but it has not changed; it is the inch
that will be found shorter than be-
fore. So while there has. been an
actual increase in the number of dol
lars, the total mass of dollars, assum-
ing no change in velocity, does not
change in its purchasing power; but
each dollar has a smaller purchasing
power than before. Supposing the to-
tai number of dollars to be 5, each is
one-fifth Of the whole or unit, Add
another dollar; each is then one-sixth
OF the whole or, unit each dollar
being of manifestly smaller value
than it was before.
Mr.. Del Mar begins his History Of
Monetary Systems" by saying that
since he wrote his History OF Money
in Ancient States" (1S8D, many
The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1903-11-19

boards of Roman coins have been dis
covered, and many important numis-
matte works have been published and
discussed" These throw so much new
light on the Roman monetary sys-
ttms that he finds a revision neces-
sary. II must begin, says Mr.. Del
Mar, "by assigning lower value to
the monetary evidences contained In
Pliny's Natural History than was
done in my former work. Pliny was
far from being well-informed on the
subject of Roman money. He wrote
hundreds Of years after the estab-
lishment of those earlier monetary
systems of Rome, whose metallic re-
mains have been preserved by the
earth to the modern world, but OF
which no collections appear to have
existed in his time. His observations
or the subject are gathered rather
from grammatical than historical
works, of which, owing to the proscrip-
tions of Augustus, but few were ex-
tant in Plinys time."

wIRE-PULLING.
Brethren of the NJ. E.Church
South, How Is
This?

Charges of wire-pulling and log
rolling to keep the best men out of
the latest plums in the way of the
best paying pulpits, ETC., are being
made against the board Of presid-
ing elders of the Missouri M. e.
conference, South, which met at
Mexico, Mo-, three weeks since,
under the presidency of Bishop
Galloway. Notice the following
from the Shelbyville Guard:
THE Southern Methodist con-
ference which met at Mexico last
week appointed Thompson Penn
to preach on this circuit and sent
Rev. O'Brien to Sturgeon. Rev
Holiday is to be presiding elder.
We learn that Rev. O'Brien did
not accept his appointment and
will be given another place by the
bishop. We hear mot thru Rev.
O'Brien that older and ADLER mem
bers of the conference have very
little to say in making the appoint
ments, but some Of the younger
and weaker members of the con-
ference by a system of wire-pull-
ing and lOg-rolling get some good
places. Rev. O'Brien is an able,
earnest preacher, and brought the
business interest of his circuit up
in fine shape. He has a large
family and certainly deserves
place paying better salary than is
paid at Sturgeon"
Rev. O'Brien is a man of more
than ordinary prominence in the
conference. He is temperance
worker whose labor along that line
has made him famous the state
over. He has served the charges
to which he has been assigned the
full limit of years, four, every
time, He has been presiding elder
eight years in two separate dis
tricts.
He joined the conference in 1872
and was on the Clarksville circuit
four years; four years on the
Shelbyville circuit; four years
presiding elder of the Plattsburg
district; four years presiding elder
of the st. Joseph district and yet
another four years at Shelbyville.
This is a pretty good record and
Mr.. O'Brien's friends consider
that his services entitle him to a
better place than Sturgeon, Mo-,
which is much smaller charge
than that at Shelb yville and car
ries with it corresponding smaller
salary. AS stated in the Guard
the minister has notified the bishop
that a solution of the trouble will
be found in transferring Mr.. o.
Brien to some other conference. -
