"Mr. Hopkins and myself have come
to pay such marks of respect as we
may to the memory of a great and
earnest woman, and to escort her re-
mains back to San Francisco" said
DR.. David Starr Jordan, President Of
Stanford University, this morning to a
representative OF the Star, as the Ala
media steamed in from her anchorage,
after having been passed by the qua
rantine officers.
I'VE have been hoping on all this
journey that when we arrived here 1t
would be known that she had died a
natural death, as certainly she was en-
titled to do. But the verdict Of the
coroner's jury, II 1t is supported by
the evidence, seems TO destroy that
hope.
ITO me this is a very sad journey,
and her death is a great blow to Stan
ford University and all connected with
It, / have worked with her through
so many difficulties in the history and
progress Of Stanford University, have
known so well the greatness OF both
her mind and character. that l am

wisest as we'll as the most generous
friend Of learning In our time There
was no selhshness IN her character.
She was steadfast to the highest ideals.
She abounded in both courage and for

FOR AN ELASTIC CURRENCY.
Secretary Shaw Suggests Plan to
Solve the Problem.

In an address before the members
of the Georgia and Florida Bankers
association at Atlantic Beach. Fla.'
last Friday, Secretary Shaw suggested
plan which he thinks Is calculated
to secure more elasticity In the cur
rency SYSTEM:
Suppose the national banks were
granted permission to issue a certain
volume Of currency, either proportion
ed on the capital of the bank or on
the amount of bond-secured currency,
and were charged not less than per
cent interest during the time this cur
rency Is out, certainly additional cur
rency would spring into existence
whenever money is scarce. and II the
banks were compelled to pay per
cent interest thereon they would re-
tire 1t as soon as the pinch Is over, 1t
could be retired by a deposit or an
equal amount of lawful money at any
Of the sub treasures. 1t would not be
necessary to redeem each individual
bill. The volume Of money would be
contracted by the deposit as well as by
the actual destruction OF the bank bills
so issued.
1.-THE government should guarantee
the redemption Of this credit currency
for the interest charged would vastly
more than cover all possible loss. l
desire to go on record as opposing the
issuance of any currency that the gov
ernment does not guarantee, and l am
equally opposed to the government
guaranteeing bank currency without
being first amply secured. But one
quarter of / per cent interest on the
currency issued under conditions such
as l have described would pay the In
surance. Any insurance company
would be glad to take the risk at that
rate. The tax on this credit currency
should be kept sacred to the redemp-
ton of the currency Of failed banks.
Thus the country would be saved an
other experience with cat currency,
and the government take absolutely
no risk.
1.-THE only other plan that seems to
me at all feasible would be permission
to issue a small volume Of heavy taxed
currency, based upon bonds other than
government bonds. / am not certain
however, that this would prove as
elastic as some of the friends Of the
plan contend 1t seems to me that the
ffno
low, could hardly afford to purchase
any kind of bonds as security for cir
culation."

AS SEEN IN CLINTON.

The current issue OF the Clhtoii
Chronicle, edited by the Rev. j. +.
Jacobs, contains the following criti-
cism of the action of the trustees or
the Presbyterian College OF South
Carolina with reference to the sug-
gested removal Of the college from
Clinton:
Tho commencement. exercises were
ouite a success, marred only by the
visit of the committee from Yorkvllie,
Offering a bid for the removal OF the
college to that town.
Last year. when the board or direct
ors were asking that the clause In the
constitution requiring that the locauon
of the college should not be changed
from Clinton be stricken out and when
thew asked that the local members De
thrown out Of the board, assurances
were given that 1t was the Intention OF
the presbyteries to develop the coliese
in clinton and that this untrammelleo
ownership was necessary to the sue
cess Of the enterprise. The Cnnton
contingent, or part of them, 1eii ii.o
the trap and voted away their rights.
nIacing confidence in the clerical
promises made them. 1t now turns
ont as the writer at that time SAID II
would. that the whole movement Is IN
tended to encourage bids for the loca-
tion of the college, from. other towns.
rrbe Yorkyille bid Is an absurd one.
THE members Of the board all ADMIT
that. But they nevertheless have ap.
nointed a committee to look into IL
and In such terms as really 10 encour-
age other bids from other towns. Ineir
protestations to the contrary are noun
ing short Of absurd and can only ue
ceiye the most gullible. The subter
Suees used to capture the college and
rob the Clinton people Of 1t, are un-
worthy the ministers and ELDERS VINO
compose the board. Insincerlty mas
been in evidence everywhere ana any
one could have seen with half an eye
what was up. But some Of our CLINTON
elders and deacons were TOO easy.
They now find that they have been up
against an ecclesiastical bunco game
which threatens to leave them wiser
but with lighter pockets.
THE success Of this move on the
mart of the board depends upon whetn-
or they can induce other towns TO pet
ter Yorkville's bid. II they get pet

THIS Due West dispatch to the
News and Courier is especially inter-
esting:
The record made at the College

and too much praise cannot be given

most satisfactory boarding place Tor
the Erskine boys. An average OF M
ty-five boys boarded at the home TINS

rate of 81 a month Mrs. Brice did all
of the purchasing and looked after the
preparation Of the meals. She also
employed and superintended the SER
wants. >,
After all expenses were paid, IN
cluding servants hire. the keeping or
a COW and the many little fncidentals,
Mrs. Brice announced yesterday that
the sum of $235 remained, which was
distributed among the fifty-one boys
who had remained until the end or
the season. To the majority or the
BOYS this pickup meant railroad rare

ed. it certainly did come In well. Each
received a few cents over "a.
Under the excellent though econo-
mical MANAGEMENT OF Mrs. Brice fine
meals have been served at the home
three times a day, and none or the
half hundred boys have registered any
complaint. The manager Is paid sal
airy for her services, which amount al
so comes out of the general fund pald
In by the boys. The Erskine boys are
congratulating themselves upon the
certainty of Mrs. Brice's return next
year.
That Erskine college has done a
good work during the past year goes
without saying. Il has done good
work during every year of its exist
ence. and we trust 1t will continue to
do such work for a.; time to come. But
right here we wan to say that In our
opinion this splendid achievement OF
Mrs. Brice deserves especial mention
along with the proudest triumphs Err
skine has known. Every sensible
housewife, as well as the husband who
pay the bills, If he be we'll balanced

would take to furnish satisfactory ta-

the Clinton people can be bulldozed in
to q contribution by this sort Of game.
It is holdup pure and simple and one
that thoroughly deserves rebuke. This
town has always supported the col
lege. Never a year has passed In
which 1t has not made some sacrifice
for It. And so long as such assistance
Is solicited In genteel way 1t will
continue such support. But to be told
Hands up" is putting 1t a little too
strong. We are now informed that II
we do not yield up an indefinite
amount we will be relieved Of the In
stitution which the easy confidence of
the people has entrusted to the honor
Of the presbyteries.
But the Presbyterian college has
more at stake than Clinton has. 1t
will have to sacrifice its reputation In
order to move the college. It will have
to prove itself an migrate devoid Of ap-
probation of the struggles Of the Clin-
ton people in the cause OF Presbyte-
rian education. It will have to take
rank as conducting q skin game. ca
joling an all too credulous public into
trusting 1t and then forthwith disap-
pointing the people by breaking the
trust.

THE people who have been prohtins
by the leak they had in agricultural
department statistics, evidently had
Secretary Wilson badly fooled. II
will be remembered that about two
years ago, when Messrs. Brown and
Hayne had figured out a shortage as
compared with the department report
SUFFICIENT to warrant them In such
heavy buying as to put the price OF
cotton "out Of sight" Secretary wilson
took strong grounds against them. He
almost denounced them, attributine
their conduct to the widest and most
irresponsible of speculation. The Sec
retary was no doubt faithful to his
own reports. and his own statisticians
were very possibly working In the In
terest Of somebody who was able to
give them bigger pay than they could
get from the government We shall
see, however, what we shall see.
