GOIImaf Bros. Greatest Of American
Shows.

The billboards are all covered
with many colored advertisements
announcing the coming on Satur-
day September 18th of GolImar
Dos. Greatest of American Shows,
Circus, Museum, Menageri and
Hlppodrome. Judging from
notices bearing in newspapers
published in towns where the
shows have exhibited already this
season, the establishment is-much
larger than ever before. 1t is
said that the free street parade is
magnificent spectacle and that a
larger numbr of wild animals are
shown in open dens than with
any other circus on the road.
Our exchanges state that it is a
fact that the Gollmar Bros. do
exhibit a monster blood sweating
hlppOpotamus in their menagerie
and that their horses are perfect
specimens and splendidly trained.
They have a herd of monster train
ed elephants and in their immense
geological collection are to be seen
the rarest wild animals, includ-
ing the weird and mysterious
vlack vark the only specimen on
exhibition in the world. The
press is unanimous in endorsing
the Gollmar Bros. Shows as clean,
free from graft of every kind and
OF the highest class in points of
general merit. They will exhibit
here Saturday Sept. Is, giving
two performances; doors open l
and I p. m. Free street parade
at 10 a. m.

coming February number of Watson's Mag
azine, written longibefore Mr.. Schif7s recent
speech. 1--WE want stable money, a stable
currency-not one that hu~ctuates." Mr..
Griffin shows that while in 1888 the bank
ers drew interest on $3.41 of loans for every
dollar of loanable capital they owned, yet
by 1905 they had managed to draw inter-
est on 1886 80 of loans for every dollars of
loanable capital belonging to them. In
1888 they had 81, 700, 600, 900 more deposits
than they had cash to pay with, and in
1905 they had 81, 300, 900, 600 more depos

of bank ledger, "hocus pocus,' money. Do
you see why they want some elastic

New Jersey Legislative Session, 1000

The Daily True american, of Trenton
has made arrangements for thoroughly cover
ing this important session in which the
question of railroad taxation and limited
franchises will be prominent features.
While the Republican party will have an
overwhelming majority, the Colby-Martin
ihdependant forces promise to make the
session by no means a tame one.
Besides the full daily reports of legisla-
tive proceedings, the ~undercurrent of opin
ions and actions which precede and lead to
the legislative act will be carefully watched
and reported. All subjects will be inde-
p~endentrly treated, and the usual high
standard of legislative reports will be
maintained.
The publishers will send the daily paper,
during the entire session, commencing Jam
nary 8, for $1-25. Address True American
Pub Co., Trenton, New Jersey.
