The copper era. (Clifton, Graham County, Ariz.) 1899-1911, 1903-10-08

Ellis II. Roberts, treasurer of the
United States, made a speech recently
before the convention of the Maryland
and District of COlum bia Bankers
A ssociatiOn in which he said: "Na-
tional banknotes constitute less than
one-sixth of our stock OF money, and
no legislation can change that ration
very materially. Gold, on the other
hand, furnishes close to one-half OF
our stock, and it grew nearly Sl2, 000 =
600 last month. Let Us be content to
stand on the rock bottom of gold. The
gold in the treasury today is the
largest sum ever recorded-S63j, 600, =
900. Oar treasury holds three and
niucteenths ii mes the amount of gold
belonging to the Bank OF England.
Good fortune has added to the treas
ury vaults of the United States since
August, 1898, to the first day of the
current month. 1898 ,9S0, 30, or nearly
eighty mil ions a year, on an average"

be entitled TO receive circulating notes in
amount equal to the par value of such
bonds or interest-bearing obligations. pro-
vided that the total amount of circulating

POLICE COURT FINES
Subject of Bill introduced in the
House.

Representative Babcock has introduced
two District bills in the House, one of
which proposes to confer power upon the
Commissioners to remit fines and grant
pardons. The latter measure provides that
the Commissioners may remit fines and
grant pardons wherein. by the judgment of
the Police Court of the District fine or
Imprisonment is hereafter imposed for
the violation of any act of Congress re-
lating to municipal matters
The second bill introduced by Mr.. Bah
cock provides q plan for the abatement of
nuisances. The measure is practically the
same as one passed by the House at the
last session. and which failed of action in
the Senate. The bill gives the Commits
sioners the authority they have long de-
sired to abate nuisances on property owned
by non-residents.
Representative Hepburn has introduced
a bill to prevent the adulteration of foods
or beverages in the District of Columbia or
any territory, and regulating interstate
traffic therein.
