celve that a few great financiers
have all the brains and can hood
wink the whole thinking public Of
the American people.
Now let us note briefly some OF
the benefits TO be derived from the
proposed plan when enacted into law.
l. Il will supply the decided pro
vision for the concentration Of the
cash reserves OF the banks. and for
their mobilization and use wherever
needed In times OF trouble. Expert
ence has shown that the scattered re-
serves Of the banks are inadequate
for purposes Of assistance or defense

2 Il also will make available ade-
quate means for use az times OF dis
tress 20 replenish the banks re-
serves. or Increase their IOanlng pow.
er when necessary to meet abnormal
Or unusual demands.
Q. Il will supply the much needed
quality Of elasticity In our currency. |
causing il 10 respond 10 the chang |
ing need Of business by automatic OK
pansion and contraction.
& II will provide for an effective /
agency covering the entire country
which affords necessary facilities for
making domestic exchange between
different localities and sections.
Q. Il will make Of the United
States one OF the great financial pow
ors OF the world.
8. Il will establish a standard OF
Commercial paper
T. II will have a tendency 10
equallze the rate Of interest and dis
count Ia all parts Of the country.
g. II will make Il possible for
banks 10 loan a limited portion Of
their resources on productive farm
lands. thus giving rural communities
much needed relief.
g. n will enable the establishment
Of banking institutions In foreign
countries, thus encouraging the de-
yclopmont OF foreign trade.
10. IL viii enforce the adoption Of
uniform standards with regard to
Capital. reserve. examinations and
the character and publicity OF re-
ports OF all banks in the different
sections OF the country.
There appears an erroneous Inn

From the Boston Herald.

The first woman students to be sent to
this country by the Chinese government
arrived the other day. and will take up
their studies this month at Mount Hol-
yoke and the University of Michigan.
Their coming is eloquent Of the new era
that is dawning in China and Of the part
that woman Is to play In the future Of
that empire. 1t Is also a reminder OF the
increasing army Of students who come
from overseas each year to attend our
colleges and universities. China and ia
ran in particular have sent young men
by hundreds for the past generation, and
after graduation these young men have
gone back to help their native lands make
history the faster. Both OF these coun-
tries are now represented at Washington
by ambassadors who were educated here
In youth-one at Yale and one at De
PAW.
Last year there were $40 young men
from China and AS from Japan at Amer
lean colleges. according to the figures COM
piled by the bureau OF education at WASH
ington. On the same authority there were
5,227 foreign students at our institutions
of higher education, and hundreds more
at preparatory schools. There were 25l
from Great Britain, for example, which Is
three times the number OF American
Rhodes scholars at oxford. Canada sent
down 800. and 700 came up from the West
Indies. There were .4S from India. 143
from Germany, 100 from Russia. 100 from
Turkey. 76 from Brazil. 81 from Argen-
tina, and q score Of other lands sent
smaller numbers And all OF these thou
sands OF foreigners help incidentally In
the education Of the young Americans
with whom they are associated.

March of the Black Death.

From the Journal OF the American Medical Asso-
citation.
"Black DEATH now known as the bu-
bonic plague, is. for the fourth time in
the worlds history. slowly creeping
around the globe. The present epidemic
Of plague, the fourth in the worlds his
tory, began in 1894. From the SOUTH
western province of Yunnan. bordering
on Tibet and Burma. plague spread to
other parts of China and to Formosa
and Japan. 1t reached Bombay in 1896,
and from that point spread throughout
India. Jedda became infected in 1897. and
again i'm 1899. In 1899 the disease made
its appearance in Madagascar and Mauri-
thus In 1900 Mecca became infected, also
the Transvaal. South Africa. Later, dur
ing the same year. 1t was found among
the dock laborers of Oporto, Portugal In
1900 the disease obtained a footing on
the western coast OF the two Americas.
Today we admit its presence in South
America, and are not sure that il is not
present on the Pacific coast of the United
States. The present epidemic Is similar to
those of the past In that the disease has
advanced along the highways of COM
merce save that its present distribu-
ton has been principally by sea routes
in contradistinction to the over land
routes of former ages.
