Editor independent: The contribu-
tion Of "A. f. Allen and editorial note
appended to it in a recent issue
prompts me to submit the following as
to that perplexing tissue of terms
price, measure, Z value" Each of
these terms, logically, should have its
appropriate annex with one Of the 9TH
er two as its subject and correlative;
but if applied to the other is nearly as
impairment and impredicable as as
cription Of cubical contents to shad-
ow. Thus: Value, we find to be essen
tial, intrinsic. inherent, but shifting
and generally unstable, and this is so
whether the appraisement of value re-
suits from actual or what may here be
termed artificial conditions, and is the
same in the bedlam chicane of Wall
street as in the orderly marts of legi-
innate trade. Legitimate value Is de-
pendent upon the sole conditions Of
supply and demand, and, in strictness,
lean be measured by only itself, !. e.,
value for value. which latter is bar
The fatal faa1..zays and enormous fraud
of all money that in its nlar6Tit asas
appreciable commodity quality are that
it continually tends and by intent
seeks to effect in every transaction OF
mere sale and purchase barter ex-
change in which the party who passes
| this money has an unconscionable and
monstrous advantage over the other;
as. to monopolize and augment the
purchasing power Of such money, are
/ but easy achievements Of the financial
combination-value can be measured
only by it's equivalent.
Price is but the index, or the ex-
ponent of value for the time during
which existing conditions supply and
demand remain unchanged. Price
measures nothing because it continu-
ally changes in it's conformity to the
instability of value; while the essen
tials of any measure are that it have
definiteness and established perma-
nence-as the yard-stick or the quart
cup-and now, in this series or trial Of
"price," measure" value we come
logically in sight of the middle term

and consulted. He told them he had
a medicine in the form of Chamber

him out and accordingly several
doses were administered with the
result that the fellow was able to be
around next day. The incident

Confederate armies made their
mark with the biggest and the
bravest. The records they have
left behind them for marching,
for fighting and enduring hard
ships were unsurpassed by
those of any troops in the armies
of either section, proving that
the antique notion about the nee
cessity of big men for soldiers is
an absurdity that ought not to
survive in this advanced age.
The LOuisianians forty years ago
proved the complete stupidity of
such a notion, and the Japanese
to-day have confirmed the fact.

New Orleans Picayune.
That the Japanese to-day are
the equals as tighting-men in
war, if not the superiOrs, of any
soldiers on this globe is estab-
lished. That is a distinction
they have won for themselves in
all the hardships of a military
campaign and in hOtly contested
battles lasting for hours in which
the cOmbatants we're engaged
not only at long range, but also
in bayOnet charges and hand-to-
hand fighting.
The most distinguishing charac-
teristic Of the japanese as a race,
apart from their color and race
peculiarities, is their small
stature. They are in height and
weight far below the average of
the people of the various Euro
pean natiOnalities, and yet this
deficiency in size and weight is
no bar to their excellence as
soldiers.
These remarks come up in
connection with the fact that
when men were Offering them
selves for enlistment in this city
at the outbreak of the Spanish
War the United States medical
officers who inspected the volun-
teers, rejected great numbers of
them, as it was reported, be-
cause Of their lack of height and
weight. 1t is a fact, the people
who are natives of the alluvial re-
giOns of Louisiana have been &C.
customed to drink rain water
caught in cisterns. because it
was the best and purest water
to be had. being entirely free
from mineral matter and partic-
compounds of lime, which
are the chief constituents of the
frame. AS a consequence
the people so brought up are in
in height and weight to
those raised in countries where
there is lime in the drinking
