Government Alone Should Issue
Money, Declares 7. @. Osborn

Kalispell, Mont. Dec. 6.-Editor
the Rock Island Argus: The custom
airy periodical demand for currency re-
form is now upon US; and commits
sion of eminent financial experts are
working on the problem. 1t would be
an interesting chapter for the history
class to find out how many times the
currency has been reformed during the
last 40 years.
A circulating medium, or currency,
Is indispensable to the public welfare;
Therefore it's regulation and control
becomes a function of government. The
founders of our republic wisely con-
ferred upon congress exclusive juris-
diction.
monetary system has these two
principal departments: the creation of
the money, and the establishment of
places of exchange Thus we have
banks of issue and banks for deposit,
usually but not necessarily combined.
We lay down this elementary propo-
sition, that government cannot safely
delegate any partSof its function-the
creation, regulation, or control Of the
circulating medium-to any private or
corporate interests. The reason sim
ply is that in such case the public well
fare will be held subordinate to the
private or personal interest.
Under the constitution. congress has
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1909-12-10

power to coin money and regulate the
value thereof. The only question is
how shall this authority be exercised.
Also, the states are forbidden to make
anything except gold and silver legal
tender. The inference is that congress
may establish such legal tender as it
deems wise. This doctrine has been
confirmed by the courts.
1t may be a waste of time to recall
the exploded greenback heresy; but 1
believe that the federal government
should issue all the circulating medi-
UNI, or money, required for the ma
tons use, whether of gold, silver or
paper: that the present paper money
should be retired and replaced by
United States treasury notes, that
these notes should be full legal tender,
not promises to pay like the green
backs, but dollars just like the coin.
am aware of the constitutional pro-
vision safeguarding the sacredness of
contracts. and I anticipate some fric-
ton in making the change. but until it
is made the present unsatisfactory
conditions may be expected to contin-
ue, and the call for reform will arise
enthusiastically, or oftener.
Details of such a currency system
can be adjusted by experience. The
volume of the currency can be deter
mined with sufficient accuracy by the

Five Esinutes later two blue eyed

DANGER IN WIRES
Crossing of Telephone and
Electric Circuits in Bust
ness Section.
CONSTANT SOURCE OF PERIL
Only Remedy Seems in Under
grounding All of the
Equipment.

ne average Rock Islander real
lied tie risk he is taking in walking
on th' streets In the business district,
he wJuld remain at home AMI do his
shopping and other business by tcle-
phone" was the statement made today
by prominent electrician in the en-
ploy Of the Burlington road when
asked as to the danger from overhead
wires.
The question was brought out by the
lfact that Tuesday evening a telephone
wire broke and lay across the trolley
wires and was a source of considera-
Bile danger for time, so much, in fact,
that a policeman had to be stationed
near the wire to keep pedestrians away
from it until the danger was removed.
This accident happened at Twentieth
street and Second avenue about s
o'clock in the evening. Had it hap
pened two hours earlier 1t might have
resulted in the death of the telephone
operator at the Burlington depot, as
the live wire resulted in the burning
out of the switchboard and would have
killed her had she touched any of the
connections. Fortunately the operator
had left several hours before the wire
broke and the only damage was to the
switchboard.
Wires In Bad Shape
There are hundreds Of wires cross
ing and recroSsinR Second avenue in
the downtown district and most of
them have been In place for years and
are about ready to snap Of their own
weight In addition to this fact, the
pest Of wire Is liable to break as the
result Of such sudden cold spells as
has just swept down on the city. It
would be almost an impoSsibility for
one OF these many wires to break
without falling upon the trolley wires
and the result is an immediate source
of fearful danger. There is sufficient
voltage coursing through the trolley
wires to cause instant death to any un-
fortunate who comes IN contact with
them. The electrician quoted states
that he has been handling electric
wires in many different cities f. the
past II years and that in his opinion
Rock Island experiences the most dan
ger from this source of any city in the
state He said the only solution OF
the matter was to have the wires put
underground where a break will not
result in their becoming live wires on
account Of falling upon the trolley
wires.

MENACE IN OCEAN DERELlCTS
Wooden ships Frequently Rise to the
Surface and Become Grave
Peril to Sailors.

When a ship disappears beneath the
waters II is by no means certain that
II will never be seen again. II may
rise after a few days, or even few
hours, and continue afloat for
months, a constant menace to naviga-
tion. This, of course, applies only to
wooden ships. When an iron ship
goes down IL stays down.
Some years ago coal-laden schoon.
er collided with an unknown vessel
in thick fog at night a hundred
miles from Capt Hstteras. The un-
known continued on her wey, and was
swallowed up in the fog. but the
schooner, with a great hole torn in
her bows, began TO settle, and her
crew was launching the boats when
seen and rescued by passing south
ern liner. The abandoned ship was
then two.thirds full OF water and bows
under In less than ten minutes after
the crew had been taken OF the
schooner's stern rose in the air and
she made her final plunge AS she
went down the deck blew up, with a
noise like thunder. Two months later
she was sighted floating bottom up be-
low Cape Hatteras, drifting south in
the trend OF the gulf stream. The ex-
planation of her resurrection was a
simple one. Her cargo had shifted
forward when the bow tilted down
with the thrush of the water and the
rolling of a rough sea. AS she went
down the coal ran out through the
great hole there before she reached
the bottom, and, relieved of it's weight,
she rose again. turning turtle as she
did so. A ship with a broken back
is also likely TO rise as soor as her
cargo floats out or dislntegrates un.
der the action Of the salt water.
A wreck in ballast or with light
cargo drifts with bows from the waves
II there is no current worth mention
ing, but in a strong, swift current the
bow will face in the opposite direc-
ton to that in which the current is
moving.
A ship bottom up will float with
about an eighth OF the depth Of her
null out OF water. and in a heavy sea
Will lie lengthwise of the waves.
When ship has been down long
enough to become thoroughly water
logged and riddled by worms II never
rises again from its ocean grave.
