NEW TREASURY POLICY.
Excellent Eject OF secretary COTtel-
you's Deposits OF Cash.

from the Philadelphia Pres.
Secretary Cortelyou, by his prompt and
early action in regard TO the Treasury,
has wholly changed the financial outlook
Confidence has replaced apprehension.
Investment has begun again. The rate
for money has grown easier and lower
not only In. New York, but over the
country
The mere announcement OF stable and
systematic Treasury policy has accom-
plished these results, for as yet little has
been actually done to shift funds from
the Treasury to the banks. But the
knowledge that this power VIII be in
telligently used to prevent any artificial
stringency has been a most important
factor in altering the outlook.
This power should be used to its limit.
A year ago-in round numbers, in Sep
tember and October-S39. GOO was trans
ferred from the Treasury 20 depositary
banks, and. the surplus revenue being
added the Treasury funds in depositary
banks rose in these two months SO 090,0 ,0o8
This year this deposit is just $5J,0o0,ool
larger than last year, or Sl07,0o000 on
September 8. 1896. and Sl57. 600 on Sep
tember 5. 1897. In addition, the available
cash balance is 100000 larger now. Be
ginning with 100000 more in the chan
nels OF trade. the Treasury has $780, 90
more than il can place IN depOsitary
banks and still be as well off as last year
in its cash.
No reason whatever exists why thi:
transfer should not be doubled. The
Treasury needs no cash balance OF SOL
| O00,e00 TO $225 0l0,0oo, such as it carried
last year through September and October
| This cash balance could BE cut down
| one-half with safety.
Placing this in New York would merely
| stimulate speculation. systematically dis
/ tributing il over the country would aiC
/ banking facilities everywhere. Legisla
! ton has given Secretary CortelyOu new
powers. he should use them TO the limi
! 10 prevent any monetary stringency her
| at a time when all over the world Z
| serious stress exists.

Chewing Gum and Henthen.

The Episcopal Bishop of Texas sadly
laments the inadequacy Of the sum rep
resented by total annual donations 10
foreign missions and finds an infinite re-
gret that so much good money goes to
waste in this country every twelve
months that might be so well used in
the cause Of spreading the gospel in
dark places and benighted countries
In compiling his statistics the good bishop
shows that America spends for chewing
gum alone over sixty millions Of dollars
annually sum staggering to contem-
plate when compared TO the small outlay
for rescuing the heather.
While the bishop does not request it
directly, it is evident that his remarks
along the lines noted indicate a sug-
gestion TO chewing-gum fends that they
might well skip the gum and give the
money to the cause so lear TO his
heart II. indeed. every chewer Of gum
should deny himself as much as one-half
Of his annual supply, many heathens
might be snatched from their deplorable
estate and converted into useful citizens.
1t seems TO US that this appeal should
not fan upon unheeding ears. Chewing
gum may have It's pleasures, but it is
by no means indispensable 1t would not
kill any single person TO cut it out alto
gether. But even were one not disposed
to deny oneself all Of the delight OF
wagging ones jaws TO the accompanying
crunch Of big wad of gum, economy
