3ANK EMPLOYEES PICK
OUT BAD MONEY

1t is a comparatively easy matter
o become an expert in the quick
handling of money and also to detect
bills that have been raised, according
those who have tried. A large
proportion of the bills now in circula-
lion are Federal Reserve notes
those in common use have Identified
lion characteristics, in addition to the
numerals, easy to memorize.
Cashiers who handle large and
small bills rapidly, usually memorze
he portraits on the bills, which are
arge enough to be unmistakable as
he major mark of identification, with
he numerals as the minor aid. The
.wo combined are we'll nigh invaluable,
ave in the case of clever counterfeits.
As the raising of bills is accom-
lished with the numerals, familiarity
With the portraits and comparisons,
will verify the proper denomination
Of the bills. The portraits on the Fed
raj Reserve bills in everyday use
IRE as follows:
One-dollar notes, portrait of
George Washington.
Two-dollar notes. portrait of Thorn
IS Jefferson.
Five-dollar notes, portrait of Abra-
ham Lincoln.
ien-dollar notes, portrait of An
drew Jackson.
Twenty-dollar notes, portrait OF
Grover Cleveland.
Fifty-dollar notes portraits of II {
Grant.
Hundred-dollar notes, portrait of
Benjamin Franklin.
In order to make counterfeitine
more difficult, and to assist the public
more readily detecting counter .eits
United States Treasurer John Burke
IN conjunction with the secret service
department of the United States
Treasury, for the last six months
has been endeavoring to decide on a
Uniform currency issue which will
have such distinctive style that the
counterfeiters will have more diff
Guilty than ever in reproducing bills
1t is possible that we will have on
each denomination a different color
scheme, or have large seals OF differ
ent hues' in addition to the portal,
and numerals.

GOLD MINING MEN ARE
PREPARING TO FIGHT

Everywhere in the west where
gold is being or has been produced,
the determination to have congress
do somthing that will aid the gold
mining cause is daily becoming more
apparent, says the Salt Lake Mining
Review. President S. s. Wood OF
the Tom Reed Gold Mines company
of Arizona, is one of the latest to
take A stand on the subject and de-
clare himself. He has recently been
quoted on the all important subject
as saying:
1--WE are asking for nothing but what
is fair. We want no subsidy from the
government or the people All we are
asking tor is a chance to get the gold
out OF the ground We know the jew
elrv business has been making fabu-
lots profits on gold for the past four
years. They buy our gold or $40 an
ounce, the same as they did over a
hundred years ago, and sell it for
about $200 an ounce when manufac-
tured in various articles. What we are
skiing or is that they pay us fair
price for the metal; not the gov
rnment nor the people, but the big
gold manufacturers. Is it right that we
who produce the gold can hardly pay
air interest ON the investment while
he big jewelry houss in New York
have been paying dividends that they
are ashamed to PUBLISH"
This is the argument of the gold
miner and his demand is just. 1t is
expressed in simple terms-so simple
hat when congress convenes in De-
| cenber there will be no excuse for the
membership to dlay action on the Me
Fadden bill for a minute. The Nc
adden bill would levy an excise tax
| / $40 an ounce on manufactured
gold, and from the proceeds the gov
rnment would pay the miner a pre-
mum of $40 per ounce for the gold
PRODUCED in the operation of his mine.
md thus greatly stimulate the industry
