sosps AND sosos.

1t is urged that this paper is not
consistent in opposing the issue of
bonds by the United States govern
ment and favoring the issue of bonds
by the county and the municipality.
It must be remembered, however,
that the United States government
reserves the right to issue money,
and the state, counties and munich
palities are restricted from doing So
The money of the United States,
whether of gold or of silver, or of pa
per, is good for its face value in all
parts of the earth because it has the
strength of the government behind it,
the government having the right and
exercising the right to levy and col
lect taxes, and this function of gov
eminent makes its money good so
long as the governmental itself Is good.
So there is no necessity for its issuing
bonds and paying interest thereon,
when it has the right to coin and
issue money.
The states nor the counties nor the
cities have this right and hence to
make necessary and useful improve
ments are compelled to resort to the
device of issuing bonds. If they had
the right to issue money of course
bonds would be unnecessary and the
bond issue would be wrong.
A newspaper can be perfectly con-
sistent in opposing the issue of one
and favoring the issue of the other
because they in no way stand on the
same footing.

Hon. Wilkinson Gail.

1t makes US excessively weary to
see some of our own state papers
engaged in the idiotic twaddle of
the idiosyncracies of poor old Senator
Call.
Hon. Wilkinson Call, for nearly half
a century, was the idol of a large
number of the people of Florida; and
for a younger generation, whose fa-
theirs and mothers may have been
benefciaries of the faithful service of
this man, to now be engaged in strew-
ing thorns instead of roses along the
pathway of his setting sun, is worse
than sacreligious.
Ex-senator Wilkinson Call cannot
now be far from the ''fOur-score"
mark. How many of US who now up
braid and dishonor him in the tOtter-
ing intirmities of old age, can hope to
have our mental faculties as well pre-
served when We reach this ripe old
age that courageous men are bound to
honor?
The democracy of Florida once need
ed him in the counsels, .and-''tribute
to whom tribute is due''-she never
called upon him in vain.
1t is time now to show to the Ev-
ing some of the flowers we are reserv
ing for the dead.-Jacksonviil Flori-

Bryan on Chinese immigrstion.

Chinese immigration is defended
by two classes of people. First, by
those, comparatively few in number,
who believe that universal brother
hood requires us to welcome to our
shores all people of all lands. This
is the sentimental argument advanc-
ed in favor of Chinese immigration.
There is no more reason why we
quire the admission of all people to
our country than there is that We
should cOnstrue brotherhood to re-
quire the dissolution of family ties.
The family is unit; it is the place
where character and virtue and use
fulness are developed, and from the
family good or evil influence ema-
mates. 1t is not necessary nor even
wise that the family environment
should be broken up or that all who
desire entrance should be admitted
to the family circle. In a larger
sense a nation is family. 1t is the
center for the cultivation of national
character, national virtue and ma
tional usefulness. A nation is under
no obligation TO the outside world to
admit anybody or anything that
would injuriously effect the national
family; in fact it is under obligation
to itself not to do so. The influence
of the United States will be much
more potent for good if we remain a
homogeneous nation with all citizens
in full sympathy with all other citi-
zens. No distinct race like the Chi
nese can come into this country with
out exciting a friction and race
prejudice which will make it more
difficult for us to exercise a whole
some influence upon the Chinese in
China, not to speak of our influence
on other nationS.-COmmone

Judge Logan E. Bleckley, ex-chief
justice of the supreme court of Geor-
gia, says that legislative bills should
be prepared at one session of the
legislature and not voted on until the
next unless in cases of absolute ur-
gency. This, he says, would prevent
hasty, crude and foolish legislation
and laws would not have to be re-
pealed in their infancy-before they
have reached, sometimes before they
have approached their majority. An
other advantage says that distin-
guished jurist of having bills thorough
ly thought out, studied, discussed,
and considered would be that the
language could and would be made
brief, simple, clear and exact. so
that, with US, statutory expressions
would no longer be slipshod, crude,
obscure, bungling, and inexact, as it
has very often been within many
years past. Statutes ought to be
drafted with as much care as the
headnotes of judicial opinions, and
with some approach to their brevity.

RESPECTABLE AND es,.esI craft.

days of Robin Hood, DICK Turpln
and Claude Duyal have had such
easy and prolific grating as those
officials connected with the Eui5able
Life Assurance Society of the Uni
ted States.
Even Chauncy -Depew, who holds
an hono-ed seat in the United States
Senate, the investigation discloses, is
mixed up to his arm pits in this ire
mendous and shameful graft.
The investigation reveals the fact
that this hitherto loved and honort d
statesman was not above receiving
$25 for each directors meeting
whether he attended or not.
If that were all it had not been so
had, but unfortunately it is the
smallest part of the revelation
Mr.. Depew received $4,000 year
for the use of his pane, thinly dis
guised as one of the company's coun-
sci. For the large sum he thus re-
ceived of innocent peoples money,
he gave nothing in return.
Mr.. Depew's graft did not stop
even here.
He was connected with what is
called the Depew Land Improvement
Company. which is now in the hands
of receivers, and whose entire prop
erty is valued at 100000; through
Mr.. Depew's solicitation, and part
ly by his vote, this company was
loaned $25O.OOO.
What became of it?
1t is difficult to believe the plain
facts Che Investigations reveal.
Here is man representing great
state in the highest and purest legis-
lative body in the world, famous for
making after dinner speeches, de-
livering orations before colleges and
universities, and yet guilty of trans
actions that would make the gentle
manly highwaymen already referred
to in the outset of this article blush
for very shame!
And the pure Alexander, the good
man who could not stand for young
MIR. Hyde, was interested in eight
syndicates making profits out of the
Equitable-he also leased Equitable
property to one of Hyde'S dummy
companies at great loss to the socie-
ty. Moreover, he used his stock
holdings, did Alexander, to elect
many dummy" directors whose
salaries were worth having. Many
of his relatives drew salaries as high
as $3.50, 900.
The evidence is sufficient to fix,
without the chance of escape, charges
of grating, conspiring for personal
gain at the expense of the company
they were managing; wronging the
company in numerous operations and
making farce of their official duties
on both Alexander and Hyde; and
int n nj "A
even grating for their personal ben
eft, must be placed Chauncey De-
pew and other men high in the places
of the rich
1t is desperase condition of af-
fairs.
If there is a law on the statutes of
New York that will fit the case of these
men, who do not need dollar that
stuck to the ends of their fingers, it
should be invoked to punish the
wreckers; these men who played fast
and loose with the money of many
thousands of people.
And Mr.. Depew, in taking a loan
in excess of the valuation of the
property mortgaged as security and
then defaulting in payment that the
company might foreclose and take its
loss, is no better than any of the
the rest of the Equitable grafters.
He should be sued by the society at
once on the note, for the balance not
covered by the sale of the property.
1t is another sickening exhibition
