MORE MONEY

Senator Guggenhcim of Colorado
is fathering new silver agitation
for the purpose of increasing the
amount of cash in the country.
Senator Guggenheim' PROPOSE
ton is to have the government
purchase in the open market
$50, goo, 600 of silver bullion and
to Immediately coin it into silver
dollar and half dollar pieces. He
estimates that this would place
into general circulation the $780,
600, 200 at once and about $780,,
600, 900 in the newly coined silver,
total increase of $3.50, 900, 900.
That it would be of immense
value to the western states to nave
the government purchase this
amount of silver, needs no argu-
ment. That it would also benefit
the country through the increase in
the money supply and incidentally
through the sddei prosperity to
the west, also nee is no arg umcnt
in the west.
But that is where the difficulty
comes in. The east absolutely
refuses to recognize silver under
any circumstances. Right or
wrong, they took their stand on
unaltcred opposition to silver, and
right or wrong, they are going to
remain there. They are more OBJ
stinate in their hatred to the white
metal than has ever been known
from American people on any other
question. The north could forgive
the south for secession and the re-
sulting blood shed and loss and the
south could forgive the north for
forcing freedom upon its slaves and
for devasting its fislds and homes
III maintenance of the union, but
eastern people can never relent
toward silver-not even if they
knew they were wrolg.
A year ago the government felt,
the necessity for small cha.se
which has awlays been made from
silver. They were oItrof silver
and went into the m1r,set to pur-
chase some. Irpsusdiately the new
demand maze silver go up until it
-seachet,tfA highest point in years
Ia point where it even became
profitable to operate some of the old
abandoned sivler mines of the west.
But soon it was announced that
the price ha reacl ci. ! a point oe-
yond which the government did not
propose to let it go, and purchases
were discontinued and the country
has suffered from lack Of changIc
ever since and still suffers.
The government may coascnt to
all manner of foolish schemes to
increase the supply OF money so
longs as the great New York banks
receive the benefit, but il will
never consent to such a simple
plan as that suggested by Senator
Guggenheim.
Democrats, who have an eve to
the best interests of their party
may well beware of this suggestion
of the Colorado man, as one cal
culatcd to raise a lew discussion
over the silver question, in view
if the probability of Bryau's nomi-
nasion-a result that would be
most disastrous to his chances in
the eastern states. Capital News.

He is USUALLY A FAILURE.
The Ways of the Average Great
American Office Boy.

A most difficult person to Cor
game" is the office boy. We hear
so much about the bright American
boy and the achievements of the
public schools that the wonder is
where the office boys come from.
They bring certificates of some sort
from their teachers, but Every
big concern has a procession of boys
trooping through its offices and
works day after day, but the boys,
for the most part, are obstinate and
incompetent. When a bright boy
appears he finds his opportunity
quickly enough, and if he has stay
ing powers he will get on. But the
majority Of youngsters that apply
for Jobs have no manners, they
can't spell, and they are always
watching the clock. They don't
know whether San Francisco is in
Cuba or the Philippines or whether
Los Angeles is in Spain or the Sand
wich Islands, and discrimination in
the matter of foreign postage is be-
yond them. Discipline they object
to, and they abhor taking orders.
When it comes to that, the average
young American of today does not
take orders easily. He seems to
suspect some hideous design upon
his freedom and equality. After all,
documentary information in geog-
raphy, photography, the wearing of
hats and the omission of coats in
Offices and certain glimmerings of
politeness are not without impor-
lance in business. The average ap-
plicant for Office boydom has no no
ton of responsibility. He will take
a job today and abandon it tomor-
row on any pretext or on none at
all.
But in capacity for vexation the
average stenographer can give him
points. Most stenographers are
good laundresses or baseball pitch
ers spoiled. Polysyllables try their
souls. The uncommon word fud-
dies their keys. Language is, in
their minds, a device by which in
telligent communication can be pre-
vented, and initiative is a term with
out meaning. They believe that
punctuation is given only to the
gods, for they themselves know
nothing Of it. On the other hand,
really capable stenographers are
among the most helpful equipments
of a business office, but their rarity
is beyond belief.-Arthur Warren in
Success Magazine.

Hats In Parliament.

History does not tell, so far as we
know, how it came about that men,
bers of the English parliament wear
their hats. The custom has de
scended from an age when its pro-
ceedings were not recorded, but one
may suspect that thereby hangs a
tale of sturdy and victorious revolt
against privilege, such as broke out
at Versailles, could it be recovered.
Now and again We find an antique
allusion to the practice. When the
commons voted that every one
should uncover or stir or move his
hat" when the speaker expressed the
thanks of the house for any service
done by member, Lord Falkland
stretched both his arms out and
clasped his hands together on the
crown of his hat and held it down
close to his head, that all might see
how odious that flattery was to
him. London Chronicle.

Antiquity of Soap.

Soap is not a modern invention.
1t is twice mentioned in the Bible,
first in jeremiah and again in Nal
achi. History tells US that more
than 1000 years ago the Gauls man
ufactured it by combining beech
tree ashes with goats fat. Some
years ago a soap boilers shop was
discovered in Pompeii, having been
buried beneath the terrible rain of
ashes that fell upon that city 70 A
D. The soap found in the shop had
not lost all its efficacy, although it
had been buried 1 800 years. At the
time that Pompen was destroyed
the soapmaking business was car
ried on in several of the Italian
cities.
