The Aldrich currency bill pending
the senate of the United States is
undemocratic and wrong. Democratic
senators have been exposing its fall
lacies. showing that in addition to its
other defects it greatly enlarges the
power of national banks and that con-
gress was giving up through it the
right to issue and circulate money.
Senator Clay of Georgia in a speech
on the subject called attention to the
more than $55O,000, 0G0 of treasury
notes in circulation, not costing the
government anything, but performing
all the functions of money. He as
serted this amount could easily be in
creased $500, 100000 more without
sulting in a deprecated currency. He
further contended that the Aldrich
bill would add greatly to the strength
of the speculative banks of New York
because most of the state. municipal
and railroad bonds are held by the
New York banks. Continuing, he
said: 'If the Afdrich bill becomes a
law the government guarantees the
redemption in gold of the additional
notes issued by the national banks
and would this not be as great a strain
on the gold reserve as treasury
notes?"
If anyObdy can explain why it is
that national bank note guaranteed
by th@ government. is better than {
straight out and out treasury note OF
greenback issued by the government
without any Intermediary, we would
be glad to print the explanation.
If anybody can make it clear VIII!
the government is acting rightfull!
on guaranteeing the notes of nationa
banks, and would be asked to do some
thing outside of its functions in guar
anteeing the deposits of the people
who put the money into the banks anC
make them rich and solvent again, VIZ
would be glad to have the explanation
made and to give it publicity.

men. An eminent brain specialist de
clares that all the best work is done
in the early morning hours. There
fore, the scheme will increase the out
put of authors, clerks and all sorts
and kinds of men.
The head of one of the biggest
business firms in the city says he is
willing to discuss the plan, but the
railways and business houses all must
concur. An extra hour on a summer
evening for cricket and tennis would
appeal to the young and to city men.
The astronomers at Greenwich say it
would be easy. Already they record
three times-sidereal, according to the
stars, astronomical, beginning at noon,
and civil, beginning at midnight.
The manager of the Savoy hotel de-
clares it would be impossible to change
the time as Mr.. Pearce proposes. The
society dining hour he says. is already
late, and it is possible that people
would dislike walking about in evening
dress by daylight. Should the bill
pass, 7:30 o'clock tonight would mean
what 6:15 o'clock does now.

Saving Daylight.

The disposition of the people of Eng

London, to lie a-bed has caused a great
deal of concern to the serious-minded
early risers, and an effort is being
made TO inveigle the slumbering inhab-
itants to get up 80 minutes earlier
without knowing it.
Some time ago a certain Mr. Willets
began the agitation in favor of setting
