BRYAN AT BALTIMORE.
Coinage OF Silver Has No Bearing on
Monetary Conditions,

Baltimore, Nov 26.-William Jen-
nfngs Bryan lectured at Ford's Opera
House Sunday afternoon under the
auspices of the Young Men Christian
Association, prior to which he was
given luncheon by friends and admir-.
ers.
Just before the latter event, in re.
spouse to question as to whether
the free coinage of silver, as advocat-
ed by him, would have prevented the
money stringency from which the
country has been suffering, he said:
The coinage of silver has no bearing
upon the monetary conditions which
exist today. The restoration of bimet.
alism would have given us more money
than We have at present. but the un-
precedented discovery of gold has
given us such N increase in money
that prices have risen"

NATURAL GAS
The Escape and Waste Should Be
Checked and Controlled.

AT this time i'll close proximity to
Shreveport are gas wells from which
millions of feet of gas have been wasted,
and the end is not yet
1t is said that experts who are famil-
lar with gas pressures have declared
that the Caddo field is inexhaustible,
that IS, there is gas sufficient to last for
years, all of which is or may be accept
ed in the spirit in which it is presented
Admitting that the gas supply is in
exhaustible, should it be wasted?
Should the gas and the matter from
the gas wells uncontrolled by permitted
to contaminate the bayous and the
streams, destroying the fish and poison
ing the water which may be used for
domestic purposes?
The Caucasian has already called the
attention of the Police Jury of Caddo
Parish to this condition, which should
be abated, and with the cooperation of
the City Council the relief desired
should be secured
Why wait until the next session of the
Legislature, whose action may not be
responsive to the demands for relief?
Instead of agitating the question
whether Or not gas should be permitted
to be supplied to other towns besides
Shreveport, the first effort should be
directed to the closing of gas wells,
from which millions of feet of gas have
been wasted and must be wasted unless
the wells are controlled.

CENTRAL BANK OF ISSUE:
Senator Hansbrough Will Intro
duce a Bill
PROVIDING SUCH A ONE.
Those In Favor of the Government
Taking This Step Point Out What
Great Advantage Such Institution
Would Be Now.

Washington, Nov. 26.-Details OF
many new projects for improving the
currency are being submitted to the
president and Secretary Cortelyou,
and are receiving such attention as
the other exigencies of the filan cial
situation permit Measures which are
now being discussed among bankers
and members OF congress may be
grouped under our heads: A central
bank of issue; central organization
of the existing national banks; the is.
sue of additional circulation against
various classes of bonds other than
United States bonds; the issue of cir
culation upon general assets with the
security of a guaranty fund
The project of a central bank based
upon the general outlines of the Bank
Of France or the Imperial Bank of
Germany has apparently been attract
ing more attention of late than at any
previous time i'll recent years.
Senator Ifansbrough of North Da.
kota, who is 4 member of the finance
committee, has announced that he
will introduce bill for such an insti-
tuion. Mr.. WeXler, vice president of
the Whitney Central National bank of
New Orleans. is in favor of centra
bank, and says that the New Orleans
press is generally with him.
Those who favor a central bank
point to the recent crisis as the best
evidence of the aid which it could have
afforded had 1t been In operation.
Their view is that the national banks
would have been able to discount
their papers at SUCH an institution
| and obtain its notes to any amount
| necessary to relieve the strain. It is
considered somewhat significant In
some quarters that Mr. Ridgely, the
! comptroller of the currency, has just
declared for a central bank of issue
after having in previous reports rec.
commended only a general credit cur
| rency for the existing banks. The ut
terances of Mr. Ridgely are not, how
ever. considered to commit the admin
istration, since Treasurer Treat also
has plan which he is advocating.
| 1t is so long since central bank ex
listed or was even seriously discussed
in the United States that there is
much difference of opinion as to the
details of the organization. Those
who advocate it generally insist, how
ever, that the secretary of the treasury
and the comptroller of the currency
should be ex-officio members of the
board OF directors, and that the presi
| dent should anDoint mr. annrova th.,

THE JEFFERSON DAVIS MONJ
MENT

The Times-Democrat says: The
Daughters of the Confederacy, at their
annual convention in Norfolk, decided
| unanimously to devote the surplus of
their Jefferson Davis monument fund,
after completion of the memorial in
Richmond, to the proposed monument
to Mr. Davis in New Orleans Mrs w.
J. Behan, president of the local Jeffer-
son Davis Memorial Association, brings
the news from Norfolk that this gener-
Gus contribution will not be less than
$1,000 and may exceed that sum. With
this valuable aid the ladies who have
worked SO loyalty and devotedly for the
New Orleans memorial to the President
of the Confederacy are greatly encour-
aged. Mrs. Behan, in behalf of the as
ISOLATION, announces that the organiza-
ton now plans to begin actual work
upon the monument on June 3, 1908, the
centenary of Mr.. Davis birth.
1t is the desire of all loyal Oreanians
'iial d iiohuiioHl W tie Siodl NoiieuSi-
ate shall rise in this city, which he loved,
and in which he passed to his long rest
In no community is his memory more
highly revered. The proposal of the
local memorial association is to begin
work upon the monument on the day of
the loved leaders birth is beautifully
appropriate and will be heartily applaud
ed by all. While the sum in hand is not
yet quite sufficient, the example set by
the United Daughters of the Confeder-
acy will doubtless stimulate local admir-
ers of Mr.. Davis to further generosity
and result in the early completion of the
fund

PROHIBITION IN LOUISIANA

The New Orleans Picayune says: The
prohibition movement is invading Louis
lana, as expected. DeSoto has fol-
lowed the neighboring parish of Natchi-
toches in voting against the licensing of
the saloon DeSoto has been dry for
some years, except the parish seat,
Mansfield, and the situation has been
greatly confused by that fact, the ques-
ton even getting into the courts and
reaching the State Supreme Court. Now
Mansfield goes over; and the vote is sig
nifcant. When it is considered that the
last vote showed majority in favor of
license, it is somewhat surprising and
evidence of the revolution in sentiment
that has taken place to learn that the
vote stood nearly nine to one, 100 to r.
in favor of prohibition 1t is frankly
confessed that this change was brought
about by the women, who, in Mansfield
as in other parts of the South, have been
the most ardent advocates of prohib-
ton, and in the former case stood for
hours in cold winter rain to plead for
votes against the saloon.
There are several local option cleo
tons to be held in Louisiana before
January, and the drift has latterly been
SO markedly towards prohibition that
these are likely to go against the saloon.
Co fn~ fIo
stem the tide against them. The recent
action taken by one of the largest brew
cries in the country, and its decision to
sell to no establishment which violates
the laws Of the State or city, shows a
better appreciation of the situation and
a determination to disarm the popular
hostility aroused by the lawless and de-
fiant element among the liquor dealers.

Don Gallery presented the proof Of
his Donaldsonville charges against Can.
didate Jared Sanders at the Wilkinson
meeting in New Orleans last Saturda,
night, and to an impartial observer like
ourselves it looks like the proof is pref
ty clear.-Donaldsonville Chief.
But the Sandersites. as they founder
about hopelessly, have the audacity to
declare that this proof from the record
must not be accepted as true for the
reason that it has been submitted by one
who is not an all-wool, yard wide, root
hog-or-die Democrat, The next efforts
of the Sandersites to disprove disagree
able facts may be to trot the niger out
from the woodpile.
