A Many-Sided Life

The woman who is a true wife holds
more offices and transacts more bust
ness than any dozen men.
She is a financier. Nc statesman
studies his budget closer than she. She
knows to a cent the and the
e expenditures of her household. When
she brings in a bill for an appropriation
it usually passes the house. Her ex-
penditures require no auditing.
She is a ruler and a wise one
She is a Judge who sits impartially
and whose findings are seldom reversed.
She is sometimes judge and jury, and
is Judge of both the law and the facts.
And she is her own officer of court to
carry out her decree.
She is a capable designer. Given a
fashion plate and a few suggestions
from a neighbor woman, she designs,
if, indeed, she does not build, her
clothes and those of her children, keep
ing an eye betimes to the architecture
of the husbands garments. Viewed
commercially, the average wife is credit
woman, correspondent, buyer, book
keeper and clerk. In some instances
she occasionally does the work of por-
ter or roustabout.
In a parliamentary sense, she is chair
man of the ways and means commit
tee. Her committee sits continually,
and frequently constitutes itself a COM
mittee of the whole to carry out its own
report.
She is doctor, lawyer, preacher, and
what is more important, teacher of her
brood. Her course of instruction COM
prises both morals and manners. Her
curriculum is a practical one, adapted
to the needs of the occasion.
But the greatest office, perhaps, is
that of queen, or helpmate. She CO.
operates with mind and heart in all
the hopes and plans of her king. She
shares his fears, divides his response
bilities and multiplies his joys.
Why should she desire more? Is not
the mere enumeration of some of her
many offices and business sufficient to
cause her to inquire:
Who is sufficient for these th1ngs?-

Before the era OF so-calIed .'securities,' u

Before the era of so-called ''securities,"
bank loans were made on the character
of the borrower, with the endorsement
of those who knew him. Today no such
individual reference is required. The
character and responsibility of the bor-
rover are no longer a factor in the
transaction. The only question is, us
the collateral good" This leads to two
evils. First it destroys the necessity
for the preservation of individual char
acter, and second it necessitates 'smak-
ing a MARKET for the pledged security.
The awful immortality, the lying, the
deceits and the frauds by which prices
are kept up, or, when necessary, de-
based, are thus directly encouraged by
this system of bank loans, and like the
drunkard with his dram the borrowers
and banks are forced to more and great
er illicit practice to keep the pyramid of
false credits they have created from
toppling over.
Thence arises the appeal to the Secre-
tary of the Treasury to ''come TO the re-
lief of the MARKET and the gamblers
cry for an "elastic currency; a curren-
cy that shall tide over the chasm that
their own profigacy has created, and
then like a rubber band shrink of itself
to proper business proportions. OF
course, such a thing as al automatic
currency is by the nature of things i'm
possible. 1t is like legisfating that the
mercury in the thermometer shall al
ways stand at ~ degrees or that only
southwest winds shall blow. The banks
alone can regulate and prevent the ex-
cess of the volume of loanable funds.
Adding to the currency when the whole
financial system is debauched by ex-
cessive credits is like furnishing the I'M
strung topper with another dram with
which to "brace up"
Today the most impelling ofthe
excessive improper loaning by the
banks is the multiplication of the
thousands of shares of stock and bonds
by all sorts of corporations, many valu-
able, some worthless, but all marked
up for trading and borrowing purposes.
The great corporations of the country
whose business cannot be carried on
without resort to bankers and financial
arrangements should see to it that their
credit is not debauched and weakened
by the unnecessary multiplication ofall
sorts of evidences of debt by corpora
tons for manufactures and trades
which could be as well carried on by
individuals, and which are, mostly by
overcapitalization, unnecessary for the
legitimate purposes of their business,
and are only created for the benefit of
the stock exchange.-Pubtdc Ledger.

Banks and Banking

A we'll managed bank is one of the
greatest blessings of its community
which the experience of mankind has
invented. 1t enables the products of
different sections of the country and of
the world to be readily exchanged; it
allows production to assure It's largest
possible safe result, and SO gives addi-
tional honest employment to many who
without its existence, would have 10
means of living. On the other hand, an
ill-managed bank is n of the greatest
evils that can curse a community. Like
the temptation of a liquor dealer to sell,
for the sake ofgreater gain, adulterated
liquors to drunkards, minors and other
unfit persons, the temptation of a bank,
that its profits may be larger, to loan
money and credit to improper persons
for improper purposes is sc great, and
at the same time so secret and indirect,
that it requires the highest morals and
the greatest rectitude and firmness to
resist it. This temptation has of late
wears DeeD 50 eDOllllOusly tiCDRthChCo
as almost TO have become irresistible,
and not a few banks have succumbed
to it.
The enormous increase in the produc-
ton of gold, together with the manu-
facture by corporations of countless evil
dences of debt, coupons, bonds payable
to bearer disable as money; heincreased
use by all classes of the community of
bank notes and checks, the free negoti-
alton of drafts accompanied by bills of
lading, and the innumerable warehouse
and storage receipts-all forms of credit
which the desire TO do more business
has created-haveso swollen the actual
volume ofloanable funds that the banks
find themselves full of means that they
cannot use in the o~ld-fashioned and
safe methods of banking. Rather than
let them remain profitless in their
vaults, they furnish them to borrowers
of little responsibility and for the most
baneful purposes, mostly gambling.

AS to That.

When seated In your Office chair
Behind a massive door.
It's very easy to declare
That you will tip no more,
But when 1t comes the time to sup
You very quickly pony up"
To push a great reform ahead
And play the martyrs role
Is easy when you lie in bed
Communing with your soul,
But when you're up against the goods
It's little George to the woods.
OF course the tipping deal is wrong.
You pay for what you get.
But when you come to bear down strong
With purpose firmly set.
Your resolution melts away,
And like a little man you pay.
You know that you can make your point
And save a lot of tips
BY dining at a ten cent joint
Where walters hand you slips.
But creditors might see you there
And think your claim to wealth hot air.
But. really, is 1t such a crime
Or such a great expense
To hand the man who waits a dime
Or even thirty cents?
To buy a railroad or a ship.

New jerseys Boroughs.

Bergen county has been busy of late
years in building boroughs. There are
more than two score of these govern
ments in that county. Nearly all the
old townships have been wiped out
and local governments have been du-
plicated to create additional public
officers. Boroughs are increasing in
other counties of the State. Every
pretty suburb hat shares prosperity
wants a borough government, and
under the general law there is not
much difficulty in making one.
There is a difference of opinion re-
specting this general resort to borough
government. One fact can be pointed
out. The borough, when created, stays.
The people have no desire to go back to
township government. The reason is
that the borough, with its well-defined
and symmetrical government, creates
a civic spirit almost unknown in the
townships, which is governed by a
committee.
The borough usually takes in a popu-
lation all of about the same character
and having the same interests and
sympathies. Bergen's %boroughs are a
product of the migration of population
from New York, and they are magnets
of attraction for more urban population.
The county's remarkable growth is due
largely to its system ofborough govern
ments.
Whatever tends to encourage the
civic spirit is for good government. The
New Yorker who settles in a New
Jersey borough soon learns to take an
interest in local affairs. Formerly he
paid no attention TO township politics.
From local affairs his interest naturally
turns to State affairs. There was a
time, prior to the formation of %boroughs,
when the commuter did not vote in
State elections. New Jersey was Demo-
cratic then. 1t is observed now that
a heavy vote is cast in State elections
in suburban places, and the State is
Republican. Towns and boroughs
have had an educating influence on
the commuter, who is now very much
a Jerseyman in his politics and votes
regularly and intelligently.
The borough is not an expensive
government. Few of the officials are
salaried, and offices are, as a rule,
honorary and are, therefore, held in
the greater esteem. Official acts are
under closest scrutiny. In a govern
ment SO small and compact jobbery
and graft would be difficult to practice.
And in a borough that class of men il
not at all likely to get into public office.
The borough is modelled on the pattern
of the city and State governments, and
experience in its affairs is a good prep
aration for a man for a larger field of
official duty. 1t also diffuses govern
ment and is the ideal of home rule
