WHERE is THE CURRENCY

This very interesting question is
answered in very sensible; manner
by Coal that Interesting Industrial
paper published at Pittsburg, as fol
lows: e
1.-THE burden of complaint among f.
naneial reviewers and apologistic
bankers Is the scarcity Of currency
Why? Is there any less currency In
the country? To say that there Is
Is Incredible. for the reason that while
American gold goes any and every.
where ut face value, little currency,
which Is only representative, and
therefore, credit money. seldom goes
outside the confines Of our own terri.
tory except to Canada, and even there
is limited in It's circulation. Where
then is all the currency issued by the
government and the national banks?
1.-THE, answer is probably that It has
been withdrawn from circulation to
pay farmers for the products OF their
acres that have been marketed, and
is in the pockets or is hidden away
by wage earners OF foreign birth and
antecedents who mistrust the solid.
arity Of Our financial institutions.
There is more rather than less cur.
rency in the country now than there
was four weeks ago. There Is indis.
pntably more gold and silver. Why
then weak and unsatisfactory expla.
nation for the panclts Of money in the
banks?
"Therc is only one reason = too
much stretching of the elasticity OF
credit on the part OF those who float
kites and balloons in nnanclering.
1T Is not the business men Of the
nation who have brought about this
condition-far from 1t; for the banks
limit their credit 1t is the gamblers
in stocks and bonds who, because Of
their credit standing in the money
marts, lend their names to schemes to

AMONG THE EDITORS.


For the last few years there has
been a wonderful development all
along the line of school work, from
the country schools to the University
and old things are passing away and
new IDEAS are being developed and the
school system of the State Is being
overhauled and remodele,l, and 1t Is
not TO be wondered that all this new
development is meeting with opposi.
tion by some people. they have not
kept pace with the times and these
new ideas and advancements seem
wild and extravagant to them. simply
because they have Jagged behind and
are living In the past. There has
been some opposition always to the
free school system even, there are al
ways few people who vote at every
election against free schools, we have
them in this district, but their object
Is mercenary. Most of them have no
children to educate and they simply
oppose for the few pennies 1t would
save them in taxes. Some OF them.
however, are living. in the past and
think the pauper schools OF ante bel
lum days are good enough. But these
people are largely in the minority anu
when 1t comes to an election where
the people have chance to record
