More Bonds to Be Issued

Although the government has $119,- 100000 deposited in the national banks. where it draws no interest, yet it has decided to cali for bids on $3O ,00O, ,00O of ? per cent bonds. Bids may be made Up to December 5.
 These bonds are called Panama canal bonds. As matter of fact, the money received from them will go into the treasury to be drawn upon for any government purpose whatever. The object of the bond issue is to keep from drawing upon the banks for money in this orop-moving season of the year.
 The government is running behind Receipts are not equal to disbursements by about s10,0O0,00O a month, and a total deficit in the present fiscal year will prooably be about $150 ,000, ,000. This is really what leads to the current bond issue.
 By reducing duties until they cease to be prohibitive the revenue could be increased, but the republican party proposes to stand by the tariff benefciaries regardless of the govern ment's revenue, because the tariff beneficiaries stand by the republican rarty in its presidential campaigns. It is conspiracy against the mass of the people, and it bids fair to be main tained until the consumers rise up to drive the republicans out bag and bag gage.

Tariff BenefrlarIaS At tha Hnarines

Speaking of the consumers, said the President elect, they ought to get to- gether and be represented. So, per haps, they should be, but they are un- organized and their pockets are not bulging with profits extorted under a Dingley tariff. Let us hope, however, they will club together in some way, and that the consumers side of the tariff issue will be presented before the current hearings are ended.
 In enc view Of the case this should not be necessary. If a majority of the ways and means committee represented the people instead of the special tariff privileges of few, no appearance be- fore it of the consumers should be nee essary. But majority of the commit tee is opposed to the people and in favor of special interests, and for that reason the consumers should be heard.
 The ways and means committee Is really trying case in which the con sumers are pitted against special inter- ests, and the jury is packed against the people It is packed to bring in re- vised verdict in favor of the few but it is all the more important that the consumers should be heard. Mr Taft 3 view of the matter is unsound in theory, but sound in fact. The ways and means committee should represent the people, but it does not, and the consumers ought, therefore, to get together and be represented in the hearings before the ways and means committee.

The Iron Market.

In the pig iron market the buying movement which got a good start just after the election has been accelerated day by day until now it is in full swing. Before the activity became pronounced furnace interests were quoting SIS but the price was being shaded. For two weeks it has been stiff at SIS and the in dications point to an early advance. The demand is healthy and as barometer of IUturning prosperity the condition of the iron market Is being felt in all branches of trade.
 Matthew Addy & Co.'S Cincinnati re- port of yesterday says in part:
 "The hope of improvement is exempli- fled in the happenings in the iron mar ket since the election. There has been a wholesale tonnage sold by all furnaces north and south. This buying movement has been extensive and furnace order books are in fine shape. Buying Shis week has not been on the large scale of last week but this was to have been expected as of course consumers can not keep buying all the time any more than a man can keep eating all the time. But in spite of this the. business of the week has been good and the market is still full of inquiry
 "A feature of the situation is the num- Der of furnace companies that have sold so much as to force them absolutely out of the market

Jan Pauren'S Is a Test Case

The Russian government is employ ing high-priced lawyers and spending money like water in order to secure the extradition of the Lettish peasant, Jan Pouren. He was a revolutionist. Lot criminal in the ordinary sense of the word. Russia does not so much want to capture Jan Pouren in an in- dividual sense as she desires to make plain to all her subjects that this coun- try is no longer a place of asylum to the enemies of aristocracy. Germany and Switzerland are now extraditing Russian political offenders, and if Eng land and the United States can be added to the list the world would prae- iically be closed to Russian revolu- tionistG and they would have to sub- nit to drumhead courts or any other device that the Russian government may present.
 The real question before the federal authorities in the Jan Pouren case is the right of asylum, and if the political refugee in this case is extradited politi- cal misruIe will gain victory and DO litlcal progress will receive a blow that
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-11-21

will long be felt in all parts of the world.
 Heretofore the scales of justice in this country have inclined toward po- litical refugees. It is not always easy to draw the line between criminals and political refugees, but heretofore the doubt has gone in favor of the man that pleads his political opinions against extradition, as Jan Pouren does. We should give him the benefit of the doubt. Ne should maintain an open door to all political fugitiyes. The right Of asylum should be enlarged, rather than lessened, and the hope is that Russia's efforts and money eX- penditnres in the case of Jan Pouren will prove to have been futile. The case is still pending in the federal courts of New York city.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
Death of Josenh Bryan.

The death of Joseph Bryan, which oc- cured last night at his country seat near Richmond, Va, will bring sorrow to the hearts of a large circle of friends in Bir- mingham. Ever since MT. Bryan pur- chased an interest in the Sloss company more than 20 years ago. he had been a frequent visitor to this city. He was one of the largest individual stoelIhold= CTS in the Sloss- Sheffield Steel and Iron company, and was a director and member of the executive committee up to the time of his death. The officials of the com pany were devoted to him, and he and President Maben had been intimate friends for long years
 One who knew him well said last night, on receiving the sad tidings; "Mr. Bryan was one of Birminghams most ardent prophets. In the dark days of the nine ties nothing ever shook his faith in this district but on the contrary he would say: Birmingham has d great future and the Sloss properties are sure to enhance in value and yield big dividends to the stockholders MT. Bryan enlisted in the Confederate army when he was a mere stripling, but he made a dashing young soldier. Through life he was fearless morally and physically, and was leader in public spirit and all movements in tended for the uplifting of humanity.
 He was a lawyer by profession, but he was better known as a capitalist and man of affairs. As the owner of the Richmond Times s-Dispatch he gave it's ed itorial conduct close attention for many years. He was a brilliant and forceful writer and was vigorous in attacking shams and political corruption.
 "A staunch churchman, MT. Bryan took an active part in Sunday school work and in the business of the Protestant Epis- eopal diocese of Virginia, and was fre- quently a delegate to the general conven- tion of the church. He was in England last summer as a delegate to the Pan Anglican congress.
 He had planned to visit Birmingham a week ago but was prevented from coming by the illness which, alas, had a fatal issue"

Better Times In Trade

The banks in some states hold more than double the money they did four years ago, despite the fact that the fine crops of the year are sending back to the country districts large sums. Still the balances of the banks in the cen tral cities are well maintained. All, too, know that under the Aldrich law $5OO,000,000 of new notes could be is sued All this makes for confidence in the general situation, for all see that another financial storm could not well arise.
 The revival of trade is based on the return of confidence, and confidence has been promoted by the fact that the democrats have accepted the result of the election in the best possible man. ner, Their quick and patriotic accept ance of the popular result has done a great deal in re-establishing confidence, and the country may be sure that every good democrat, every warm friend of Mir. Bryan, will welcome the opening of mills and plants and prosperous times in all lines of trade.
 If now every capitalist, big and little, would assist in swelling the tide of prosperity the coming of good times would be hastened, and we would soon have a contented people from one side of this country to the other. Financial assistance at the right times and Tn the right spot goes long way in re- viving trade and in putting hungry men at work There is no reason why it should be longer withheld. Capital can now earn money for it's owners and it can now powerfully aid in bring ing back better times in trade.

 A man who didn't fret Ger this and that and other things He knew he couldn't get. While in the crib we want the moon, No matter what it's worth, And later on when we grow up,

 Who tries to pluck rose Will nearly always find the thorn, Which stands for earthly woes. And so he longs and longs in vain
 Until his sun is set; Iris what we really want the most
