Ir&FnERH one TO whom the proper purpose and value
k of ready cash are unknown, and who scat

amateur takes his own course and enjoys it more than
his critics imagine. a city's most energetic population
IS recruited from the farms, and the old merchant or
practitioner, as Il rule, Graves the country when he re-
tires. The passion is strong even amcng those born in
cities, aud IL they want TO amuse themselves with little
extravaSaDces on the soil they ought to have sympathetic
encouragement. 1t is seldom that farming is attempted
on Monte Cristo principles, but surely 1t is better to scat
ter a million on the soil than to see 1t Tapped up by
brokers in n single night. Occasionally 4 wizard in Sc

kSG6nSEJ ford to be distinguished in the industrial
world as the nation which holds life of
least moment in securing our coal. 1t must not be at
such a price that we carry on our great industries and
get the coal to make our homes comfortable. The effect
of the continuance of such revelations of slaughter as
the Investigations show, as the reports OF the past fort
night from the mines show, will In the first place be to
stigmatize the nation as the cruelest on earth. . " .
For there is no good reason why coal mining in this
country should not be safer than in any other, instead
or more hazardous. The best talent Of invention and
improvement Is at our command. If we should but make
the most of what we already have conditions would be
much better. But there should be no remission of effort
until the work is taken out of the realm of hazard and
made only a little more risky and less unhealthy than
factory work. This Is possible, and would have been
achieved long ago had there been as careful and per-
sistent and compelling inspection for the few years past
as there Is likely to be for the years to come. If the re-
suit shall be q prompt and saving inspection now, not
all of these dead will have died in vain.-New Haven

Instead of destroying combination the

But they viii never be outlawed by a

bill to amend the currency laws. The
measure is designed TO give tie coun-
tr.y a more elastic currency by author:z-
ins the issue of additional circulating
notes to the maximum amount Of $250,-
100000, which will be taken 0ut only
in cases of emergency for the reason
that q six per cent tax is imposed.
These notes can be secured by approved
State, city and county bonds.
The special feature of the bill that
may provoke discussion is that which
restricts tie privilege of issuing these
additional notes to that class Of ma
tional banks (which has circulating
notes outstanding secured by the de-
posit of United States bonds to an
amount not less than 80 per centum
of Its capital stock, and which has a
surplus of not less than 20 per centum.'
1t will no doubt be contended that this
provision is a discrimination against
tie smaller and the weaker banks in
favor of the more powerful institutions,
and should not be made, inasmuch as
no notes can be issued except by the
deposit of approved securities. But,
ON the other hand, the government as
sumes a responsibility in granting the
additional issue, and the trainers Of
the measure believe that every reason
able safeguard should be employed to
protect the national treasury.-Toledo
