ance to the carly trading in the stock

IL oclock-Prices were irregular
throughout the first hours. Govern
ment bonds unchanged; other bonds
irregular.
Noon-Trading was dull in the
forenoon, stocks making fractional
gains.
r. d. Lackey and Company say:
There seems to be nothing new In
the situation and trading the balance
of the day likely TO be of an evening
up nature Should stocks recede any
from their present level, we think
they are all a purchase for higher

The democrats, according to even
republican newspapers, ought to win

The democrats, according to even
republican newspapers ought to win
in 1912.
All they have to do is to organize
and pull together. The republican
party cannot defeat the democratic
candidate for the presidency. The
only possible thing that can prevent
the election of democratic president
in 1912 is the democrats themselves.
The opportunity is here, and from all
parts of the country reports are
reaching headquarters that the demo-
Gratis realize it and are already lay
ing plans for a campaign that will re-
suit in the democrats sweeping the
country in 1912.
There seems to be no way for the
republicans to avoid defeat If the
democrats get together and work, as
they are now starting out to do. If
Mr.. Taft is re-nominated the insur-
gents will slash him, and if Senator
LaFollette is nominated the "old
guard" will slash him.

When the Mothers Congress- met
in Washington, p. c., about year
ago, the women invited President
Taft to address them and he accepted
their invitation. With his usual
laundering instinct, this great lover
of judges proceeded to denounce
woman suffrage and to show why
women should not be permitted to
vote. The unexpected and unde-
served insult to the mothers of our
land was more than the women
could bear and they openly hissed the
president.
Taft has just paid visit to three
women suffrage states = Colorado,
Idaho and Washington. He is can
didate for reelection and will prob
ably be the nominee of the republi-
can party. The women of the states
named will have an opportunity to
show Taft that they are not only
capable of voting, but capable of re-
buking their defamer-not with
Kisses this time-but with votes that
count just as much as the votes of the
men. That they will do this goes
without saying. Women cannot con-
scientiously support Taft, and they
will not support the party which
makes him it's candidate for president.

tanning employment to earn a little
money. For this great class there is
no way through which they can OBJ
tain money except they dig it from
the earth or obtain It in wages.
But since silver was demonetized
and there has been no real money ex-
cept gold, the business of the country
has expanded SO much faster than
the volume of money has increased
that the second class mentioned above
cannot borrow what money they need
to carry on their enterprises. The re-
suit is that they are filled with un-
rest, and they cannot employ the men
who need employment. And there we
are. The government might relieve
the local strain by issuing $500, 0,000..
900 in one and one-half per cent
twenty-year gold bonds, Of the size
and denominations that would enable
men to pass them from hand to hand
as money, and with these pay the ex-
penses of the government as long as
they lasted, which would be but half
a year. They would enter at once In
to circulation and relieve the present
strain.
But to restore our lost export trade
with half the world; to stop the hope
less present competition between
American and Oriental labor; the men
who caused the demonetization of sill

control of all the real money of the
country, should for their own sakes
put out a statement that because vi
the inconceivable increase in bus
mess there is not basic money enough
in the country to carry that business
on. and recommend that congress
should at once, upon assembling, re-

The statesman of England are dis
cussing the causes of the seemingly
worldwide unrest and possible reme-
dies.
The unrest in the United States is
quite as pronounced, but most of our
statesmen ignore the fact, and not
one, so far as we can see, has more
intelligent remedy than to make over
the tariff, or to put in motion such
forces as would in ten years result in
something like French revolution in
half the states of the Union, says
Goodwin's Weekly.
Money was invented at first as both
measure of values and a medium of
exchange. If a man lived in Thessaly
and drove ten beeves down to Corinth
and sold them, he received ten pieces
of money valued at what one OK was
valued at, and carried the ten coins
home in his pocket. That money was
good on its face for what he had paid
for it. But after a while there came
time when before he drove his
beeves away he wanted. to fatten
them. So he went to a neighbor who
had hay and barley equal to the value
of one OK. So the OK owner bought the
hay and barley and agreed to return
the value of one OK when he sold his
oxen. That was trade, but a shrewd
neighbor, seeing what might be done,
went to all the men who had hay and
barley, paying part down and agree
ing to pay the rest later Then when
the men who had cattle and wanted
to fatten them, went to the man who
had all the hay and barley to purchase
enough to fatten their stock. But this
first merchant was canny. He raised
the price and compelled the man with
the ten oxen to agree to give him two
oxen instead of one for the accomoda-
tion. That was the first cinch; it is
now termed monopoly
But the merchant, while exceed
ingly prosperous, saw his business ex-
pand beyond his capital, so he looked
around and finally sold half his bus
mess to man named Isaac. That
was the first firm. Isaac looked over
the books, and then said to his part
ner, "You are a good man, but not
~
these stock men when they come
again" The barley and hay were
bought, as usual, by the original
buyer, and small payment made,
and the rest made payable after a
while. Then Isaac, who was In the
outer Office, asked each one how much
he would deduct from his account to
get the ready money. The poor ma
tives had never heard of such
thing. but Isaac explained that money
was very scarce, but he had a little
and would cash their amounts If they
would throw Off ten per cent. ~
that way he got most of the accounts.
That was the first discount for cash.
Then when the men with the ten
beeves came, he exacted the price of
two beeves for the hay and barley and
third OK for the risk. That was the
first interest.
Well, since then money has ceased
to be either a fair measure Of values
or fair medium of exchange, but the
idol before which most men fall down
and worship. And the world is divid-
ed into three classes; the few who are
