Saturday Evening Post calls atten-
ton in a strong editorial. 1t is a
matter of rejoicing that our wide
awake mayor is taking steps to
stamp out what is said to be a grow
ing evil in our own fair city. 1t is
inconceivable that any white man
should fall so low as to furnish a
poison that turns human beings into
demons at the last and is fruit
full source of crime, and yet it is
common talk that negroes in DaW-
son are regularly employed to ped
die the vile stuff to debauch their
race and all because some white
man wants to make easy money.

is Intended to prevent depreciation OF

Senator Owens plan is to cancel out
standing gold certificates as they come
into the Treasury: issue Treasury
notes redcomable IN gold In their
stead; transfer the gold represented
by the gold certificates to the redemp
ton division: cancel the . per cent
bonds; issue per cents In their stead
and supplant national bank notes with

The owen bill Is n distinct measure.
and has no direct relation to the ad-
currency bill now pro-
cecding In the House.
Senator Owen said his plan would
establish IN this country q great re-
demption fund, such as all other coun-
tries have and that this would have
a psychological effect in maintaining
a financial stability. The reserve fund,
he estimated, would thus consist of
Sl,236,0oo,000 of gold, and $4,000. 900
