week of last month gold amounting
to 81, 500, 900 was sent to London
from New York-just the amount
that the Indian council had sold the
$50 laos Of rupees to obtain. In
that way as usual. this country got
the double cross. She had sold
the Indian council the silver for
those rupees at about 60 per cent
discount-thanks 10 our wise legis-
lation between 1873 and 1893
then when the council sold them
our banks had to furnish the gold
to buy them.
And all the gold goes to a
country that had known only silver
money for more than 5000 years.
Was eyer financial imbecility more
perfectly exemplified? The Re
view of Reviews thinks that all the
trouble is that we, on this side.
have no central bank through
which TO raise the rate of discount
and thus prevent the expectation
of gold. But, suppose the silver
legislation between 1873 and 1893
bad been dispensed with. No gold
would have been required. Moth
ing would have been asked ex-
cept silver, and the Indian council
TO obtain it would have paid one
per cent premium instead of obtain
ing the needed silver at so per cent
discount. Then too, if our country
wants any portion of that rice she
will have to pay for it in gold or
its equivalent, as we have nothing
to exchange for it, our silver legis-
lation having closed all those east
Indian markets against exports
from the United States. And
there is not a voice raised in con-
gress in protest. President Taft
thinks silver fell in value in terms
OF gold, not through legis alton,
but because of over-production,
though it never deprecated a
penny an ounce until it was struck
down by legilation. and the eastern
journals, those wise as leaders and
trainers of public opinion. look up
on the destruction of our export
trade with half the inhabitants of
the earth and are as dumb as sick
oysters. But enterprises are halt
ing on this side because so much
is being shipped away, and
men who have TO borrow money TO
carry along their business have to
pay mor interest on it. That in
creased interest reconciles the
money-lsaders and so long as they
r happy what does it matter
what becomes of the rest of the
country. And the great unwieldy
masses of u people look on.
What was it Puck said about the
people?-Goodwin's Weekly.

HOW HIsH PRICES AFFECT cHILDRts

Mable Potter Daggett, who pre-
sented "A Brief for the House
wife" in The Delineator for June
offers some startling statements for
careful consideration. In order TO
make both ends meet, the American
family, has tried every possible ex-
pedient, she says. Many, believ-
ing that Children should not be born
into privation, have limited the
number to what their. income will
support. Families with less fore
thought, who number three and
four and FIVE children. r sending
them out to earn their daily bread.
New York City in 1904 issued 49,
191 children's employment certif-
Gates, and in 1907 the figures had
increased to 90, S43.
Child labor is heavy toll for the
nation to pay for high prices. If
these have been advanced by the
operation of national economic laws,
it is time to restarin artificial laws
and combinations that are forcing
them higher. For this the votes of
women are calling in a demand
that is growing and more in
sistent. In New. York they have
held open-air street meetings to
pass resolutions urging Congress to
act in the matter. a year ago
when Congress was giving the
country the present tariff schedule,
women protested as never before in
history. From Chicago came. an
appeal with 200, 900 signatures
written on a bale of paper, which
was drawn on a dray through the
streets of Washington to the great
white Capitol on the hill. The
protests that gathered from every
state mounted into millions of
names. They piled up by the yard
on the table of the House Com
mittee on Ways and Means and the
Senate Committee on Finance
later to be swept into the Oblivion
of the wastebasket. This con-
stituent has no ballot. Why
bother about her? Then Congress
proceeded to spend FIVE months in
fervid ~oratory by which was en-
acted a tariff taxing nearly every
thing that the workingman buys.
while his labor, the only thing he
has to sell, was carelessly left on the
free list along with rags and uncut
diamonds.
The housewife has little know
ledge. of politics. Her husband has
usually has told her that-.the tariff
is something you have. to have.
1t is an inherited national belief that
you do. And mere feminine rea-
soning, may be unorthodox in its
logic. But what every woman
knows is that there's something
with a political economy that has
made even little children along with
the necessities of life, a luxury
in the Ameacan home!

COWP ASTUREN0T
PUBLIC HIGHWAY
Rights Go Back to Riparian
Owners After Term Of
Eighty-Eight Years.

After lapse OF lightweight years,
the Cowpasture River. is no longer a
public highway. In spite of fight
made by those vino have in the past
fshed in this beautiful stream. tn.
last Legislature passed a bill repeal
ing an act approved December 10, 1922,
" Inch made the river public To all
the people of the State. The act was
effective yesterday.
The bill was introduced by j. w.
Stephenson, the representative from
Bath and Highland counties, and was
fought to some extent. However, the
spirit of local option which was so
intense in both houses caused its pas
sage by an overwhelming majority.
The legislators regarded 1t as a mat
ter affecting Mr.. Stephenson's district
alone, and the burden of representa-
ton and of responsibility was upon
him.
The Cowpasture rises in the noun
tains of Highland county near the
West Virginia line, flowing through
Highland and Bath and a part of Ale
ghany to it's junction with the Jack
son near Iron Gate, forming the
James In defense of his measure. Mr.
Stephenson said that the property of
riparian owners was sometimes dam
aged by persons from other parts of
the State.

GAS WORKS TAR
NO faint TO FISH
Chemist Ezekiel Reports OF
Analysis Of Refuse From
City Plant.

1t is the opinion of z. n. Ezekiel,
chemist of the Water Department., who
was authorized by the Council Commit
tee on Light to make experiments. that
there is not enough precipitation of tar
flowing from the Gas Works into the
James River to faint the flesh of fish.
He explains that this tarry substance
doubtless does mar and darken the
snowy hulls of pleasure craft.
Several weeks ago complaint was
made that refuse from the Gas Works
flowed into Glllie's Creek, and thence
into the James, blackening the hulls of
boats and making the fish unfit to eat.
After the examination of several wit
nesses, as well as the testimony OF
Superintendent Knowles, of the Gas
Works. the committee authorized the
chemist to analyze the water and the
tarry substancs emanating from the
Gas Works
The report is lengthy and deals and
delvcs in technical phrases. Summed
up, the chemist said he is of the opin-
ion that there Is not enough tar flow
ing from the Gas Works to cause the
flesh of fish to become tainted, lie is
of the opinion that the claim that hulls
of vessels are made black by this ref
use is we'll taken, but he does not be-
lieve the Gas Works is entirely rcspon-
sihle a much other refuse is emptied
into the river
The letter was submitted to the Com
mittee on Light last night b. super
tintendent Knowles. After a brief dis
cussion it was ordered filed by the
clerk
