miles of mountain and valley country
which lie back of the Golden Gate.
The movement was originally start
ed by taking subscriptions for a

100000 was raised in the district
around San Francisco for this pur-
pose. It was then decided to moor
porate in order to employ the money
in a business like manner.
Stockholders in the company are
those who donated, and they number
several thousand. They will get no
dividends, however, except indirectly
through Increased business as North

OUCH! LUMBAGO!
RUB PAINS FROM
SORE, LAME BACK

Back hurts you? Can't straighten

and twinges? Now listen! That's
lumbago, sciatiea, or maybe from a
strain, and you'll get relief the NOM
ent you rub your back with soothing,
penetrating St. Jacobs Oil. Nothing
else takes out soreness, lameness and
stiffness so quickly. You simply rab
it OH your back, and out comes the
pain. It is harmless, ard doesn't
burn the skin.
Timber upl Don't suffer! Get a
small trial bottle of old, honest St,
Jacobs Oil from any drug store, and
after using it just once you'll forget
that you ever had backache, lumbago
Or sc;atica, because your back will
never hurt, or cause any more misery.

us thht a
ssThere is left no room to- doubt but
that the conspiracy perfected at that
convention resulted in that infamous
exception clause ON the greenback, and
was contaminated by act Of Congress
February Is, 1863, wherein it was
stipulated that the greenback should
be legal tender for all debts, public
and private, except duties D n imports
and interest on the public debt, which
from time to time forward should be
paid in coin"
Wall Street had won a great victory.
All the greenbacks that were issued
with that exception clause, qualifying
its value, subsequently rapidly de-
creased in value. So, then. Mr.. Chase,
knew whereof he spoke. If them
money he proposed had not been quail
flied by such an exception, it's value
would always have remained at par
with gold, because it would have had,
not only all the gold in the United
States but all Of the wealth, the army
and the navy, behind it. It would have
been worth par just so long as the U.
S. remained a nation and exercised her
Governmental perogatiyes in behalf Of
her people. 4 Z 4 "a (.
ShyIock's Pound of Flesh
When the Congress passed this act
refusing to accept it's W notes in
payment of obligations due it in way
of import duties, depreciation of this
paper money was inevitable. But the
other provision which excepted the
payment of interest on public debt
made a two-fold victory for the bank
ers. The bankers had boarded all the
gold. When imports reached this
country the importers had to have
gold to pay the duties, because this
precision of the Act kept the Govern
ment from accepting its own money
in payment of these duties. The re-
suit was that the importers had to go
to the bankers to get the gold to pay
the duties. This placed gold at a
premium, and the premium advanced
as high as 1856 per cent. In other
words, $500 in gold would buy 1886
of the Governments money. The
bankers would sell $500 in gold for
1886 of Government bonds bearing in
terest. These bonds were payable in
gold, and the Governments money
could not be used to pay interest on
the public debt,so the interest on these
bonds bought with 1886 of Govern
ment money had to be paid in gold
and paid in advance. What a harvest
for the bankers, while the Union
soldiers were facing death on the bat
tlefield for SIG per month payable, not
in gold, but in this same Government
money. If these exceptions had. not
been written into the law and the
money had not been SO conditionedI the
money would have remained at, pa,
