SOME HARD FACTS
ABOUT SOFT MONEY
BY JOHN oAKwooD

When q farmer takes his produce
20 market and sells it for, say, dol
lar bushel, he Is dependent upon the
honesty of two measures-the dollar
and the bushel
The other day q crossroads store
keeper got sent to jail for manipu-
lating a trick bushel basket with q
false bottom that would slide up and
down In a way that was grand, gloomy
and mysterious. When using it to
measure stun he bought from farm.
er, he'd secretly shove the bottom
down until it held at least bushel
and a quarter. but he would only
credit him with busheL The buying
power Of the farmers product was
thereby deprecated by about twenty
per cent.
Finally the farmers thereabOuts got
wise to the fact that the only way
they could get what was coming to
them was to enforce q reliable stand
ard of measurement. So they put
good stir Jail penalty on using
fake measure, laid for that store
keeper with the trick basket and sent
him to prison.
Politicians in Europe have been
manipulating the other measurable
money measure-in much the same
way. Some of them In America want
to tamper likewise with the dollar.
Here is about the way it would work
cut Suppose, when the farmer
brought his product to market, the
basket measure was honest enough
and he got q dollar bill for each
busheL He'd take his dollars home
and save them. Perhaps he planned
to buy some land next his own for
thousand dollars, and figured that In
q year or so he could make it.
but meanwhile the politicians start
to manipulate the base Of the cur
rency They would change 1t from the
gold standard to q fiat money plan
from q gold guarantee to the mere
say-so Of the government that q piece
of paper was worth q dollar. The
farmer wouldn't be watching the
money-Doliticians He would be too
busy raising things. At the end OF
the year he has his thousand dollars.
He takes them to the landowner and
says, "Tn buy your land now-here's
q thousand dollars"
But the landowner would say. "That
is paper money-my land is worth
one thousand dollars gold-the gov.
eminent has printed so much paper
money folks haven't much confidence
IN 1t. But / am willing to take a
chance II you will give me dollar
and a quarter in paper money for
each gold dollars value of my land
in other words, I'll give you my land
for $3.50 dollars paper"
Soft money would be only another
way for the money politicians to hand
the farmer the same dirty deal as the
basket manipulation. In the first case
the farmer unknowingly gave bushel
and a quarter Of his product, and in
the second case he would have to give
q dollar and a quarter Of his money.
for dollars value in return.
In Germany they have carried the
manipulation Of the mark so far
we'll, 1t seems hardly believable, but
IL they did the same thing to the dol
lar, 1t would take over ten million in
paper money to buy that land. The
primary producer can raise his prices,
but not fast enough to equalize this
drop in the gold value of unsound
money. That is where the catch
comes in.

WILDERNESS OF THOUGHT

MANY of the highest priced things
AVA in life, often through careless
ness, neglect or perverted habits, are
lost amid a wilderness of weeds,
whose rankness had been permitted to
overtop a wealthy soil.
Penelope's flower garden, which she
elected to call her own" was beauti-
fully laid out and gave great promise,
but in an evil day, when she grew
weary of pulling out the tares and
watering the buds, the weeds ran
amuck and ruined the plot about which
Penelope had dreamed for weeks.
When put to the test she preferred
the melancholy weeds to the rose and
the lily
And so it was with William, who
had planned great things while in col
lege, but the weeds crept in among
his cherished ambitions and led him
far. far afield In direction he never
suspected.
Up to given point ne was faith
frightened his sky. but when they
faded he lost interest and did not
care.
Then came the day when the garden
was choked with weeds.
He smiled complacently and accept
ed his fate because he believed in
luck. He had never been taught to
hold to the anchor of faith.
But William had learned some risky
denly called upon to do so, shut his
mouth very firmly and exhibit not
the slightest sign of fear or discourage
ment.
He meant to be good and true, and

strength Is such that he can pick up
buffalo and walk off with 1t as cat
does a mouse.
Suddenly where he thought that
no man existed, he runs into stop
near the machan. he Is turned
back with difficulty, and with great
roar which shakes the trees of the for
est he turns in the direction of the
machan. His hair along his back and
his name stand straight up, his face
is covered with terrible sheer of
fearlessness and determination. 1t is
his final rush, and he cares not what
is In the way. Now he is the most
terrible of creatures and at the same
time one of the most :, superb
ly beautiful.
This great orange and black-striped
cat leaping through the jungles at
express train speed furnishes the most
stupendous example of pent-up animal
power. No man exists whose whole
heart will not come up into his mouth
at the final appearance of this great
brute. Although comparatively safe
in our machan, we know that tigers
have pulled people out of them up
to IL feet from the ground, and we
know that If he is wounded and not
killed the price may be several lives,
as a wounded tiger Is the most danger
GUS animal known. Gradually we
raise our rifles and well placed shot
lays low the noble animal.
"The sight of the charging beast,
the trumpeting elephants with their
trunks held on high to avoid the dash
of the tiger, and the beaters climbing
the nearest trees to save their lives,
is an event never to be forgotten. In
the case of one tiger being wounded,
the maharaja himself ad-
vanced alone to finish him, so that no
one else would be hurt, which was
an exhibition of craftsmanship never
shall forget"

he sought to be fortunate and happy,
but the weeds smothered him.
The brilliant course he had consld-
cred must wait till another season or
at least until he shall give proof Of his
change of heart.
He has ample ability, but even with
his fine talents there springs up at
regular intervals crop of hot-headed
weeds, sometimes growing in the night
to present sickening spectacle In
the morning.
William is but a name for a thou
sand young men who, in spite of pa
ternal advice, insisted upon sowing
their wild oats.
William has won the name of being
wild and reckless, which he admits.
He recognizes that he is sort of
moral cripple, too weak to strike out
alone, too proud to accept advice. He
Is to be pitied, for he really is not bad
at heart and Is nobody's enemy but his
own.
