CURRENCY LEGlSLATI0N
The Republicans Fear to Push
It Before the Election.
ALWAYS HELPING THE BANKERS

A Situation and Proposals That Are
Not Viewed With Favor by the
Voters of Either Party-Whnt the
AIdrich and Fowler Bills Princi-
paIly Provide For.
The Aldrich bill, backed by the Rock
efellers, will perhaps not be pushed to
a vote in the coming congress. The Re-
publican leaders know that such legis-
latiOn is unpopular and will postpone
the bill until after the national elec-
ton. The same course will also be fol-
lowed with the asset currency Fowler
bill and for the same reason. If the
Democrats carry the next national cleo
ton those two bills will never more be
heard of, for both are entirely at varil
ance with Democratic ideas of financed
The Aldrich bill proposes to loan to
the banks the surplus money in the
treasury at a low rate of interest
which the banks will loan to the peo-
pie at q high rate of interest. The
most obnoxious result Of the passage
of such u measure would be that the
banks would constantly be the. champi-
Ons of high taxation. The more taxes
collected from the people the larger the
surplus and the greater amount OF
cheap money the banks would get.
The Democrats would reverse the
proposition by reducing taxes and the
tariff and only collect enough taxes 10
run The government honestly admins
tered. The national banks now have
over S16j,0O0.OO0 of the government
surplus. and the administration IS con-
tinually increasing the amount. The
banks are crying for more, as we'll they
may, for its costs them nothing, and
there is great doubt if they will ever
repay what they now have. The sea
son for this is simple one, for banks
are unlike individuals. 1t is almost
impossible to make them pay their
debts to the government if they don't
want TO.
If the present secretary of the treas
ury or any future secretary should de-
mand from these favored banks the
money that has been deposited with
them they would declare that to repay
it would bring on a panic. The banks
have loaned this vast sum to the stock
brokers AND others with railroad Snd

party will march overland to Ads
Ababa, the capital of Abyssinia, where
the negotiations with Menelek will be
conducted. 1t is regarded as certain
that an intimation has been conveyed
to the state department that Menelek
will enter into trade alliance with the
United States.
Inasmuch as the proposed trip will
necessitate a passage through a wild
and sparsely settled country, Il small
guard of marines numbering sixteen
men, commanded by a sergeant, will
accompany the consul general. An APP
plication has been made to the French
government to permit the armed Amer
lean marines to cross the French terri
tory between Djibouti and the borders
of Abyssinia, and it will probably be
granted.
Ads Ababa, the capital of Abyssinia,
is about 300 miles in. straight line
from Herrar, but the expedition will
have to travel a much greater dis
lance because of the mountainous
character of the country and the alb

fifteen to twenty days to cover the dis
lance.
Menelek II, "king of kings and con-
quering lion of JUDAH is siXty-one
years old. For fourteen years he has
ruled Abyssinia, gradually amalgamat-
ing the four kingdoms of Shoa, Tigre,
Amhara and Godjam into a solidified
empire by the suppression of internal
disturbances and by successfully re-
sisting all aggression from without.
Before assuming imperial authority in
1889 Menelek was prince of Shoa,
which is said to be geographically
identical with the ancient kingdom of
Sheba. Indeed he traces his descent to
an old time Menelek, son of Solomon
and the celebrated queen of Sheba.
This claim is supported by Abyssinian
tradition, by the Koran and the folk
lore of the Arabs. Both Menelek and
his subjects believe that he has inner
tied the wisdom of his great ancestor,
and the belief is said to have had a re-
markable effect on the emperor.
His sway affects territory of 100000
square miles, and the prevalent reli-
gion of the country is Christianity,
though of n primitive and barbarous
type. The faith was taken there in the
fourth century and was planted firmly
enough to withstand all subsequent
assaults of the Mohammedans.
Though his uniting of the antag
onistic elements in his own empire
must be reckoned as strong evidence of
Menelek's ability as ruler, the crown
ing feather in his cap was the defeat
of Italy in open warfare. Trouble with
the Italians began as far back as 1870.
when Italy began extending its juris-
diction over the Red sea territory in
the vicinity of Massaua. As time went

LORD MINER OF CAPE TOWN
A British Statesman Who just Now
Is In the Public Eye.


Is In the Public Eye.
Lord Alfred Miner, British high
commissioner of South Africa, who has
been much in the public eye of late be-
cause of the recent changes in the Bal
four cabinet, is Il grandson of British
general. His father was a professor in
the University of Tubingen, and young
Miner was not only born in Germany,
but received his early training in a
German school.
After leaving college young Miner
drifted into journalism and was at one
time connected with the Pail Mall Ga
zette. He got his start in the govern
ment service in 1887, when he became
private secretary to Lord GOschen, then
chancellor Of the eXchcquer. Two years
later he went to Egypt as undersecre-
tary and made reputation.
Returning to England in 1892, he
was for four years chairman of the

board of inland revenue, and in 1897
Lord Salisbury sent him to South AZ
rica as governor of Cape Colony. Later
he was made lord high commissioner,
which Office made him paramount au-
thority over all the British holdings in
South Africa. Two years ago he was
raised to the peerage, with the title of
Lord Miner of Cape Town.
A story is told that illustrates Lord
Miners capacity for work A young
officer on his staff who had been hoping
for a vacation had to postpone his APP
plicatiOn in order to accompany his
chief on a tour through the Transvaal.
On the return to Pretoria after a fort
night of what seemed to the officer the
hardest labor he had ever performed
he asked for a holiday. Lord Miner
looked at him and said: Vacation!
What has the last fortnight been but
vacation?'

the empire of Abyssinia for the
purpose of negotiating u commercial
treaty with Emperor Menelek H., is at
present consul general of the United
States at Marseilles, France.
Sending mission to Abyssinia is one
of the state departments efforts to Gre
ate and extend our trade. Our goods
have filtered into Abyssinia for many
years, almost without the knowledge
of our own people. The empire has a
population of 100000 and a stable
government, while recently cOmplet-
ed railroad connects it with the outer
world.
We now supply Abyssinia with cot
ton sheeting, petroleum and other sta
pies and are buying hides, carpets,
wool, ivory and civet Our relations
are important and reciprocal, but not
direct Hitherto the trade route has
been by sea from Alden to Zelia and
thence by caravan to Herrar. Within
a few months a railroad has been fin
ished from Djibouti, a new French
town on the Red sea, to Herrar, the
commercial capital of Abyssinia.
Consul General Skinner will leave
Marse!lles on Oct. % on war vessel
designated by the navy department and
proceed to the French port of Djibouti
and thence by rail to Herrar. From
