1t was very kind of H. Clay Pierce
to suddenly agree to come to Texas
and answer the Indictment pending
against him, after exhausting many
of the legal technicalitles to avoid do
ing so. And President Pierce has
nothing to fear in Texas if he is guilt
less of the charges made against him.
The people of this state believe in
the same justice for millionaires that
is administered to cotton choppers. If
Pierce can prove his innocence while
the state is trying to prove his guilt,
he will be able to pass through the
ordeal entirely unscathed.-Fort
Worth Telegram.

CHRISTIAN INJUNCTION AGAINST
SOCIALISM.

An effort to make the teachings of
Christ and the Bible sustain the
tenets of Socialism was expressed in
the form of series called "Antiso-
cialistic Don'ts," quoted in our issue
for March 80. The author, Mr.. T. H.
b. Bodenhamer, has succeeded in call
ing out an antagonist in Mr.. John
Douglas Gordon, who also goes to the
Scriptures to prove the falsity of the
Socialist propaganda. His series of
Christian injunctiOns are printed in
The Catholic Standard and Times
(Philadelphia) from which we quote:
IF you stand with Christ against
Socialism, follow his example of sub
mission at all times to lawfully con-
stituted authority.
IF you stand with Christ against So
cialism, quit crying out against rank in
authority, for he always likened his
rule to a kingdom, promised that his
apostles should sit on twelve thrones
judging the twelve tribes of Israel;
also recall the degrees in the heaven
ly kingdOm-of angels and archangels,
cherubim and seraphim, etc.
eff you stand with Christ against
Socialism. take to heart the parable
of the lord of the vineyard, who said
to those who complained because, al
though they had borne the heat of
a whole days work, they received the
same pay as those who worked but
few hours in the evening, Did not
bargain with you for penny?
"If you stand with Christ against
Socialism, obev tho injunction of st.
Paul, 'Exhort servants to be Obedient
unto their masters, and to please them
we'll in all things, not answering
again.
IF you stand with Christ against
Socialism, be loyal to rulers and SUI
periors, temporal and spiritual, for st.
Paul doth thus exhort Titus, Put them
in mind to be subject to principalities
and powers, to obey magistrates, to
be ready to every good work
'If you stand with Christ against
Socialism, take not away the rich
mans wealth, for since all that we
have comes from God, if he deem it
proper he shall deprive him Of his
wealth in his own good way.
If you stand with Christ against
Socialism, remember to seek ye there
fore first the kingdom of God and his
justice, and all these things ii. e..
temporal necessitiesl shall be added
unto you
"If you stand with Christ against
Socialism, do not be deceived by those
who would have you believe that all
war is wicked. The whole Bible, from
Genesis to the Apocalypse, upholds
and encourages war in a just cause"

THE QUANTITY OF MONEY AND
PRICES.

The day when trade instinct alone
would pilot the business craft to sue
cess harbor has passed and keen
watchfulness of the worlds trade
channels as illumed by the economic
and other shoal lights, is the today
requisite to the safety of the business
barque.
This and other countries have had
what is termed great prosperity and
are reaping it's fruits. We have seen
the value Of commodities rise and the
compensation of labor enhance. In
analyzing the causes, crop reports
have been dissected and special con-
ditions peculiar to the several indus
tries pointed out, that prosperitys
probable continuance might be fore
casteG. The special conditions pecu-
liar to the leather market and indus
try have been quite thoroughly set
forth. But it is plain that the rise in
prices has proceeded from some
cause common to all countries and
commodities and is not confined to
special cases.
And that cause is without doubt the
great augmentation Of the quantity
of the worlds money through the enor-
nous increase in the production of
gold not alone through the discover
les of new gold, but by new processes
of ore reduction.
The annual production of gold in
creased from $95, $4,000 in 1883 to
$4O4.649 900 in 1906 and the increase
in 1906 over 1905 was 22,4OO,OOO In
addition to the portion of this in
crease in gold that has swelled the
volume of money in the United States,
there was the enormous augmentation
of credit money"-bank nOtes-which
in the ten years from 1895 to 1905
amounted to $32S,031, ,787, and has
since been materially increased.
That commodities rise or fall in
price in proportion to the increase or
diminution of money, is now accepted
as an incontrovertible fact.
Other conditions being equal: Dou-
BILE the volume Of money; you double
the value Of products. Divide the
volume of money; you divide the val
ue Of products.
Under the monetary system i'll force
in this and most other countries, the
volume of basic money is dependent
upon the capricious output of the
mines and is not fixed by human agen-
cy according to the requirements of
the trade Of the nations. Therefore,
the volume of gold production be-
comes an important factor in the
gauging of prices and prosperity.
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-05-30

AS reports from authoritative
sources are generally agreed that no
decrease in gold production is immi-
nent, the sources to look for contrac-
ton are financial legislation and bank
note manipulation. The vociferous
and persistent wall for an Elastic
Currency emanates from quarters oc-
cupied by those otherwise engaged
than in trade, in it's true sense. And
while the apparent purpose and al
legged necessity for Elasticity" is for
expansion to meet the demands of
trade, all of the proposed Elastic
Currency" measures are provided with
most ample provisions for contraction,
to be operated by those whose inter
ests might be benfted by curtailing
the volume of money and thereby en-
hancing it's purchasing power.-The
Glovers Review (Protectionist Organ),

CALL FOR A STATE GOOD ROADS
CONVENTION.

1t is matter of common
knowledge that much of the ex-
pense and effort now put upon
our country roads is wasted be-
cause of lack of interest and
poor methods of construction.
Experience has demonstrated
that better roads can be built for
the same money that is now be-
ing expended. Good roads mean
more prosperous farmers and
merchants, more intelligent citi-
zens, they bring large increases
in land values and are among the
best means of developing the
state and increasing the amount
of business that can be done.
Because Of these facts and be-
cause there is a general awak-
ening of terest in roads
throughout the state, the under
signed believe the time is ripe
for the inauguration of strong
movement for the bettering of
our country roads. We there
fore JOIN in issuing the call for a
State Good Roads Convention to
be held in Milwaukee on Thurs
day, September 18th, a t the
State Fair Grounds. We urge
every interested person to be
present and lend his assistance
to this movement, which is of
very great Importance to our
state.

Tomase SaIvini to Get $20,-

Publishers Press.l


New York, Jan. 25.-By decision OF
the appellate division of the supreme
court, Brooklyn, handed down this az
ternoon, Tomase Salvini, the Italian
actor, will receive from Liebler and
Co., 10000 for what was to have been
his grand farewell tour of this coun-
try. The veteran star IS now seven
ty-eight years old and is at his home
in Italy.
The action was brought by Salvini
sor breach of contract. He was rep
resented by John r. McMuller, of No.
so Wall street A contract was en-
tered into by Salvini with Liebler and
Co, to tour the u. S. in 1904. The ac-
tor said that the firm had failed to live
up to the contract and did not send
him the first installment of $4,000 In
advance Therefore he did not come
to America. The defense was that be;
cause of the Iroquois theater frs in
Chicago and its consequent effect that
season on theatrical business, Salyini
had waived his contract.
Dispositions We're made by Salvini
in Italy and used as evidence here.
The supreme court awarded his $780,
coo year ago and an appeal was ta-
ken by the defense Today's decis-
ion is regarded as final.

QUEER DIVORCE DECREE
MADE BY HAMMOND JUDGE.

Hammond, Ind, Jan. 25.-In all the

Negele, if he marries at ALL must wed
one certain woman-the ife from
whom he was divorced here today
Mrs. Negele is bound by tho terms
of the same decree-a limited di-
vorce'-to marry her husband if she
marries anyone within thirty years.
The court expressed the hope that
the Negeles would settle their diff
ferences. To give plenty of time for
the couple to think the matter over the
Judge declared he believed it would be
best to make the limit as elastic
as possible. If the Negeles fail to
make up in thirty years he agrees
that their differences of opinions are
probably hopeless and they may seek
new partners for the rest of their
lives.
Negele is prosperous pharmacist.
He sued his wife on the ground that
she is a drug fiend." Mrs. Negele
filed a cross bill making a similar ac-
cusation against her husband.

Rooms Which Were Closed Will Re-

The scarlet fever situation in Rich
mond is at standstill and no new
cases have been reported at the health
office for the past several days. Quar-
antines are being thoroughly enforc-
ed, since the complaint of looseness
was made.
The three rooms at the Starr school
and the three at the Whitewater
school, will be reopened Monday, after
ten-days' quarantine unless new cas-
es make their appearance before that
time. Several parents having chill
dren in the rooms which were indi-
rectly exposed, are still awaiting the
development of the disease, in case
there should be such, while many say
that they will not allow their children
to return to school until the disease
is stamped ont in its entirety.
Dr. Bond and his assistants now
feel that the fever is under control,
and are of the opinion that it will
have run it's course within the next
few days. Those homes which have
been open to exposure have been
thoroughly disinfected, as have the
school rooms which were closed.

ATTORNEYS CLAIM THAT THEY
THOUGHT THE ORDINANCE

NEXT MONDAY.

There was a preliminary skirmish
yesterday in the war that is now O.

traction company. As the matter new
stands the municipal officials are
resting on their arms, and there is
no prospect of hostilities being re.
sumed until early next week and not
then in case. the traction people de-
eide ito be good" which is MOI
among the probabilities.

when one of the freight cars of the

ed Riley Cook, the conductor and

headquarters. John L. Robbins local
attorney of the company and City
Attorney t. j. Study were at the sta
tion almost as soon as the officers and
their prisoners. The two legal gen.
tlemen at once became engaged in a
lively argument as to when the pro-
visions of the ordinance under which
the arrest was made, became effec-
tive. Mr.. Robbins contended that the
time for enforcement would not be-
gin until Sunday. The requirement
was that it should be published once
week for two consecutive weeks
1t was published the first time jan
uary II and a second time January
10, and Mr. Robbins declared that
it should not go into effect until next
Monday. After considerable discus

of the city to agree to a suspension of
the enforcement of the ordinance un.
til that time.s

AFFECTS CITY COURTS
Measure Pending in Legislature to In
crease Jurisdiction of Court in
Civil Suits.

A measure that would affect the city
court of Richmond, is pending before
the Legislature, and may be enacted
into law. This bill increases the
jurisdiction of city courts in cities OF
the fourth class, giving them jurisdic
tion in civil cases where the sum in
volved does not exceed $1,000.
Some of the members of the general
assembly, it is said, have advanced
the abolishment of the courts in the
class of cities named on the ground
that there was not sufficient work to
justify their continuance. The bill to
increase their jurisdiction is sprung
in order to head off any movement
contemplating the repeal of the stat.
ute creating them.
