Currency.

..The attention of the congress should be especially given to the currency question, and that the standing committees on the matter in the two houses charged with the duty. take up the matter of our currency and see whether il is not possible to secure an agreement in the business world for lettering the system; the committees should consider the question of the retire nent of the greenbacks and the problem of securing in our currency such elasticity as is consistent with safety. Every silver dollar should be made by law redeemable in gold at the option of the holder.
The Forrest City times., 1904-12-09

When we come to deal with great cor porations the need for the government to act directly is far greater than in the case or labor, because great corporations can
 become such only by engaging in interstate commerce. and interstate commerce is pe- cuiiariy the field of the general govern ment. It is an absurdity to expect to e.im- mate the abuses in great corporations by state action. It is difficult to be patient with an argument that such matters should be left to the states. because more than one state pursues the policy of creating on easy terms corporations which are never operated within that state al all but in other states whose laws they ignore The national government alone can deal ade-

JEFFRIES' BRAVE FEAT,
Stops Team of Runaway Horses in
Central Park.

New York, Jan. c9-James J. Jeffries
never battied more desperately for
victory in the ring than he did
Thursday, in Central park, when he
stopped 4 team of runaway horses
which threatened to throw q sleigh
and its occupants into a deep gorge.
lii the sleigh We're Mr.. and Mrs Albert
Hall. At the top of a steep hill the
broke and both animals started to
gallop madly down the incline.
Mrs. Halls cries attracted the atten-
ton of Jcffries, who was in a sleigh
at the bottom Of the hill. The cham
pion jumped from the vehicle which
was about 40 feet from a small bridge,
spanning gorge, and throwign off
his overccat, braced himself to stop
the maddened horses. Their speed had
increased during their flight down the
hill and the sleigh which they were
pulling rocked So violently from side
to side that Mrs. Hall was compelled
to cling with all her strength to the
seat to avoid being hurled to the
ground.
Jeffries grabbed the reins Of one
of the runaways as they dashed by
him AMI was jerked off his feet and
dragged along by the galloping horses
He had seized one of the reins attach
ed to the broken bit and his efforts to
bring the runaways to a stop had little
effect. Realizing that some other
means must be adopted. Jeffries man.
aged to seize one of the horses by the
nostrils and in this way partly strangl-
ed the animal. The horse lessened its
speed and the other animal followed
its example. Jeffries die not relax his
grip. and both runaways finally yielded
and were brought to Il stop just before
they reached the gorge.
