well foundedil 0 SMRjust retired from the bench of thel Court of the S IItatest ing more than forty years Thirty four years and more he has sat as- a a Supreme Judge and for nearly six years prior to that he served as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of CaliforniatHis is a notable judicial careers and his term of service exceeds that of all his predecessors Chielj Justice Marshall having hithertoI held the record for length ser vice in the court of last resorth THERE is no longer any doubt that the money power of Europe dominates this country says a writer on economics The power has been sending gold into the United States through New York San Francisco Nev Orleans and other ports untilwe now have a gold circulation of 50000000 in excess of that of a year ago with a total circulation nearly iooooooou larger than a a year ago This foreign power is evidently determined to ruin us if possible by dumping a lot of gold in on us in exchange for our corn wheat meat and other pro ducts GEOROE M PULLMAN died sud denly of heart disease Tuesday morning in his Chicago home The millionaire palace car builder began life as a clerk in a country store He went to Chicago int 1859 and about this time began aJ series of experiments with his sleeping car idea completing in 1865 the first car Pioneer which at once took rank as the most perfect railway vehicle in the world His later career is well known Mr Pullman was identi fied with many public enterprises in Chicago The industrial town of Pullman which he has made now contains more than 11000 in habitants iMR S N SIMMONS who has served fourteen years in the consul ar service to Mexico is at home in Louisville on a visit and spoke thus of Mexico in on interview the other day It is the most nat ural thing in the world for me t a- be a sound money Democrat I am in a country where the evils of the silver standard arc daily illustrated Some months ago I loaned a Mexican 1500 in American money to buy a piece of land with He had it excUaged into 3000 It at the end of a month he would have been compelled to pay me back he would have had to pay me 4000 in order to make up for the depreciation of silver in that short time MAJOR GENERAL MILES has just returned to Washington after a five months tour of Europe during which he studied the methods cm ployed by the European militia One point noted by General Miles was the large use made in Europe of American weapons notably ma chine rapidfire and small Runs At Aldershot every one of the I British regiments that swept pas in review was followed by a ma chine gun of American invention The entire British army was armed with a riflle designed by an Amer ican The General also says that the Germans have quietly begun the purchase of a number of Amer can machine guns Russia a1Iuses American ideas in her army and it is believed by the General that only the enormous expense of making a change in the present- ystem has operated to prevent the rench from adopting the same machine and rapidfire guns A Deserved Compliment A MOST able editorial upon the question of Prevention of Strikesc from the CourierJournal appears this issue A few notable in- tances of liberal and successful with and management of labor in America are mentioned as contradistinction with European tactics and the very many cases where employers treat the ment s creatures entirely apart from and subordinate to them which has resulted in the formation of unions and the attendant evils ol- trikes and lockouts The cases referred to by the CourierJournal are Coils Armory n New England the Cambria ron Works of Pennsvania A oal company in this State which as passed securely all through the labor troubles of this and other years and a Louisville manufacturer who hires a great many menThe names of the two Kentucky concerns are not mentioned but they are easily and unmistakably read between the lines The coal company referred to is the St Bernard Coal Company of Earlington The manufacturer will be recognized by Louisville peopleVIt is a distinguished compliment but a deserved one that the management of the St Bernard Coal Company of this place should thus be singled out by a great newspaper of National fame as among the most notable in lib eral relations to their employes and successful management of their businessReferring to the President of this Company who took 2000 of his employes on a special train to the Tennessee Centennial paying all expenses that paper says Is it any wonder such a man has no strikes though walking delegates flocked to this State last summer Prevention of StrikesC- ourierJournal NewIare Unknown in New England factories where Americans arc exclusively eniployed The most conspicuous example of this sort is found in the Colts armory These works employed 8000 men during the war night and day and have been in steady operation for fifty years without a strike the rumor of a strike or the formation of a union among its workingmen It was the policy of Col Colt at the beginning to employ none but native American mechanics to insist upon the best workmanship anc then to pay the highest wages ant to look upon his employes as men and to treat them as such in every sense of the word His business being the largest in New England we are assured that other factories were modeled after his and that in none of them where Americans have been exclusively employed has there ever been a strike or the formation of a union The newspaper in question further calls at tention to the fact that of late years with the importation of Eu ropean laborers European tactics in their management have been adopted and employers treat the apartfromThe result has been the formation of unions and the attendant evils of strikes and lockouts Probably too much is attributed to the conservative disposition of the American workingman Without questioning the superiority of tour nativeborn citizens even IAn Abscess In tha Stomach Causod Croat Suffering

to the peasantry of Europea fact ad mitted by all keen European ob serversit is certain that the treatment of these men has more to do with their contentment than their rmtivity The employer who seeks the best class of labor and pays the best wages not only finds this policy cheaper in the long run but is also freer from clashes with his workmen There are Abundant instances to prove Cambria Iron Works of Pennsyl vania with 7000 employes have never had a strike and never reduced wages until we believe the prolonged depression came a few months ago We have in mind also a coal company in this State which has passed securely all through the labor troubles of this and other years and whose miners rejected all overtures to join the movement which cost both capital and labor immense sums of money last summer This company has a contract with its men in which the wages are fixed upon liberal terms and they are guaranteed thirty days notice in case of dismissal that notice being required them in return A man who willenter into that sort of a con tract will naturally be careful in selecting his men and the men who take such employment will choosE their employer with judgment The President of this company ook 2000 of his employes on a special train to the Tennessee Cen tennial recently paying all the ex penses of transportation and admission to the grounds Is it any wonder such a man has no strikes though walking delegates flocked- to this State last summer We nave also in mind a manu facturer a citizen of Louisville who hires a great many men skilled and unskilled and who operates a large establishment the whole year around Vhen a man goes to work for him he is paid the highest market rate of wages and when he has remained six months he gets an advance At the end of one year of good work another increase is given him and a final one at the end of two years He is also permitted to share in the profits the extra money coming to him being paid in time for Christ mas presents This man never has a labor dispute and never has an employe who inot keenly in terested to prevent waste and to increase profits In 1893 when Factories were closing and solvent business men were compelled to suspend for lack of funds this man was waited upon by his employes who tendered him the loan of their savings a sum amounting to many thousands of dollars This proof of confidence in the midst of a panic was a touching one but it is characteristic of the relations that always prevail between employer and employed in this establish mentMany labor troubles are caused by the intermeddling of agitators or the sympathy workingmen have for craftsmen struggling with harder masters and whom they desire to aid by similar action Many strikes also arise from mis understandings and some because the employed do not appreciate the conditions which beset the em ployer The cultivation of amicable relations between the man who pays anti the man who sells his services will however do very much to make them Impossible The L N has entered into a closer alliance with the L H and St L railroad by making its stations ticket offices for the St Louis line Tickets

stocks countriosI upon tho market isconstant ably largely responsible for recent rapid fall in price Comparing the years 1873 and 180liI Mr Meado finds that tho yearly product of silver increased SCO per cent while the prico fell 48 per cent Tho most Interesting portion of Mr Meados article is that which deals with t tim cost of producing silver Ho notes Vtho general progress of tho silver try and mentions a few of tho indusI portant improvements in machinery Tho following Givo an idea of some of tho changesI Tho first and most important im provoment in silverproduction has been tho improvement in transportation Railroads havo been rapidly extended throughout tho western part of tho IIMoxico lion of silver ores from Mexico into tho United States which greatly stimulated tho silver industry of tho former coun try Railroad transportation enables the shipping of fuel nnd timber frequently scanty in tho richest mining localities and also tho introduction of tho im proved machinery without which ccpt in tho richest deposits silver ing cannot today succeed minI tion facilities also mako it utilizo lead as a byproduct of silver i which materially decreases tho cost of silver production Difficulties of transportation I havo seriously retarded tho progress of silver mining in Bolivia A railway has however recently been in process of construction in that country j which will open some of tho richest ifiiuea Next in importance to tho improve r meats in transportation como thoso in j tho mechanical and chemical processes of mining and extraction of ore Wo may divide these as follows Improve ments in extracting and dressing the- nore and improvements in methods of treatment Under tho first tho steaminnd later tho electric hoist substituted for tho hand windlass Im i mense improvements have been mado iu tho construction of concentrators The old method of concentration which I is still in use in Mexico nnd at mines in tho United States was that of handc picking Tho improvements in sampling ores have been even more striking 1 Great improvements havo also been made in ore crushing For tho bowlder crusher of Bolivia and Mexico have been basIboenSlwedtion Of tho smelting works All refining works are now built in terrace forum andI aro so arranged that tho baso bullion which line necessarily to bo handled whilo being unloaded sampled and charged into the softening furnace shall j run from ono furnace to another and not be lifted again until it is loaded III tho smelting proper improve mrnt has been even more active than in his preliminary operations In tho treatment of dry silveroros which are amalgamated with quick silver and retorted the chief improve i niunt of recent years has been In tho saving of quicksilver Thw inothcds of extraction of high grade silver in voguo in the United States and in the best mills throughout tho world may be nuiizul as fol lows Tho oro is lira It 1 tJ tho mill isIsifted and sorted Ly luaiblncry crushed by Heavy stamping batteries or by tho rolls after which it Is carried directly to the amalgamating pans In which ItIis kept constantly in motion by ma chinery passing through tho eight pails In four hours From those tho pulp JUIKSCS lute settlers which cltan up tho charge of 1000 pounds in four hours moro Tho muss is then retorted Tho avcnigo cost of uu average mill in Art Zeus was from 3 12 to lOO per ton of oiu IIThe improvements in cx traction havo been perhaps moro notaI bio than uiiy others Prior to 1874 ores wero reduced by amalgamation as ordinary dry ores About that time it was discovered that this silver could bo far moro easily extruded by a process of smelting Following this discovery camo tho great development of Lend villn und Pueblo in tho early eighties Ihs essentials of this method of extinc tion nro C 1 Tho smelting of tho ore in an ordinary blast furnace 2 tho canI centration of tho silver into a muebI smaller quantity of lead 1 tho repa ration of the silver in n cupeling fur Dace The blast furnace hums been Iy improved during tho last 20 ytllraI nu important leaturo ui me general Improvement iu tho silver industry has been tho iiipld introduction of electric ity into mining operations Tho use of tho electric light has greatly facilitated all processes carried on within tho mine Electric power is also employed in hoisting ore and In pumping with tho very best results both as regards cost and convenience Electricity can bo transmitted long distances with only n small loss of power and it is thus possible to use power at such a distance from its source as would render it other- wiso unavailable Tho importance of this improvement can bo better realized when wo consider that ono of the greatest obstacles which mining cspo cially in Mexico has to encounter is tho diniculty of obtaining fuel for power owing both to tho lack of trauspor tation facilities and where these exist to tho high charges for hauling coal from tho United States Where water power exists within R rndltmsof liO miles it cnn bo used for tho transmission of electric power to a silver mine Tho economy of power is very remarkable At ono set of mines in Mexico operated by tho Real Del Monte wor electric power is obtained from sI falls and transmitted from 15 to 25 to work pumps hoists stamp mills crushers and ventilators II It is obvious that tho results of this long series of improvements in silver mining nnd silver smelting havo been grcntly to lower tho cost of producing silver These improvement have doubt less to some extent been accelerated by tho falling price of silver which they have also tended to produce It was not to bo expected that the great advances which have characterised every other department of industry would not affect tho production of silver and it should bo remembered that there is no reason to bcliovo that this march of improvement will bo stayed To tako but ono illustration If tim experiments iu tho utilization of tho direct heat of tho sun aro over successful tho smelting of all kinds of ores will bo completely revolu tionized Tho problem of fuel will havo been solved Tho second and most important ole ment of tho production of silver is tho supply of ore Mr Meado hero notes tho ninny largo deposits of silver prnc tically inexhaustible left in different parts of tho world and tho probability that under new methods of mining and smelting time output of many mines will greatly increase- A third factor in tho supply of sil ver which has doubtless exerted a con siderable influence is tho silver standard prevailing in Mexico and tho Central and South American silver countries Tho miners wages aro paid and most of tho supplies aro purchased in terms of tho silver standard Domestic prices nnd wages have not varied with tho prico of silver and by consequence tho fall in silver has not affected thp profits of mine owners to tho same ex tent as in tho United States This fact has placed mining operators in silver standard countries at nu advantage in competition with their competitors inI tho United States and Europo and doubtless to some extent increased tho supply of silver though we should bo careful not to exaggerate its impor tance To summarizo this portion of our study Wo find that tho increase in tho supply of silver which has been Uio main cause of its fall in price has been duo to tho application of improved processes and appliances to a series of oro discoveries extending over tho last 30 fears and that this advance of improve ment has constantly lowered tho cost of producing

1808 ouch to secure tho presidency In 1000 There is nothing now In the question as It Is now presented It was fully discussed last year but all the old arguments will be brought toI the front once moro It will be well for the farming class and the other voters of these states to study the question afresh and ask the politicians what good tho free coinage of silver can do us or our interests They will bo told first that times aro still hard in the country and that tho cause of them is the want of suflbleiit money that moro money is what is needed for general prosperity But tho education of tho last cam paign ought to Iinvo mndo every man of them understand clearly that tho coin ago of more legal tender silver dollars will not increase circulating medium of tho country for the reason that the history of tho world shows clearly that whenever n nation has attempted to mako uso of two kinds of money differing in intrinsic or commercial value tho result has always been that the bet

years running tho mints nt their fullest oapao ity to coin enough silver to make up for this loss of gold money In tho meantime there would bo nil tho evils of a heavy contraction of tho currency Mortgages and other debts would be forced to payment nnd the farmers would find in the general tightness of tho money market tho demand for their products would decrease and prices falloff Thero will bo a great deal of tho old talk about tho blessings of bimetallism this year Now tho fact is that tho United States is already tho greatest bimetallic country in tho world except Franco That is to soy

Tho author believes that legal tender laws are a great curso null are responsible for most of our monetary evils Ho makes a good case Ills arguments are well calculated to upset not only 10 to 1 ideas but nil belief in favor of fiat or cheap money This being tho heart of his discussion wo quote tho following extracts from the chapters on Fiat Money nud Legal TenderFrom nn economic point of view there can be no difference between nu obligation to deliver what happens to bo a medium of exchange and en obliga tion to deliver some other article In either event tho selection linn been made by the agreement of tho parties rind tho obligation is as to a certain quantity of a certain thing It is thus that wo may say that in economic contemplation any obligation to deliver specified goods is a debt It would seem that tim obligation mode by tho agreement of tho par ties should bo altered only by tho agree ment of the parties It would seem farther that tIme obligation should not bo altered indirectly by changing tho definition of terms used in the agree ment Nor should the fact that the law looks on a debt for money in a different light from tho way in which it looks on a debt for other goods mako any differ ence as to impairing tho obligation- It is nevertheless truo that no despot ic power of government in disregard of property has been oftener or moro uni versally employed than this power of tampering with contracts nUll that too not only by governments professedly despotic but even by those claiming to bo actuated by tho principles of jus tico and liberty These then aro tho three ways of debasing tim standard coin of a country either to reduce the weight of tho picco and make the reduced piece a legal tender for tho old piece or to coin tho samo pieces as before but decree that each shall bo n legal tender on existing contracts for moro than its old name implied or to coin pieces of tho same weight as before but of n reduced flue ness and to make them legal tender with the old However it is not at nil unusual to find that when ono of these methods is employed in a schemo of do basement tho others are also associated with it Debasement properly speak ing refers simply to applying tho old minnie to n lesser of metal and in order to effect an impiriimgof con tract rights must bo accompanied by n legal tender law for otherwise creditors would not receive tho smaller coins for moro than their market valuo as stamp ed metal but the aot of debasement is so universally poisoned with this legal tender law that tho term debasement is generally used to cover both operations Tho method above described for tampering with tho mouoy of a country namely to debase tho coins in weight fineness or nomenclature anti apply le gal tender lawsis so barefaced and self evident n fraud that it is almost universally denounced and it is of into years seldom used byn civilized government There is however another meth od by which tho samo nefarious end can bo attained under the plausible pretext of regulating tho value of mouoy Ias if mouey needed any other regulation than to bo let alono to find its own mar ket level This idea of regulating tho valuo of money has its enthusiastic advocates in all countries of tho present day and has permeated to individuals in all classes of society It is based on the idea that tho order of tho govern ment tho flat of law gives money its basic value It is therefore called tho doctrine of fIati Sill and money that is tainted with this idea is called fiat moneyA legal tender law however which makes less an equivalent for more takes no account of any mans ability to fulfill his contracts but with ono fell swoop strikes n horizontal reduction of debts for nil alike and is in effect II universal bankrupt act When it is suid us sometimes is that a legal tender law is necessary to avoid bank ruptcy such a law is in reality not an mostIwrongs minnie legal tender must hold n promi nent place it seems to bo almost a

With Prominent Officials Who Favor Them Assistant Secretary Spaulding of the treasury department at VashI ington was interviewed on the subject of postalsavings banks the other day by a Chicago Record correspondent He said- I do not think the government ought to enter the banking business in competition with private parties but the postalsavings bank need not do this As I understand the purpose of the advocates of this system it is to accommodate certain small depositors who could not in most cases reach banks and who dissipate their small earnings under present conditions If this system reaches such people it will prove a great benefit to them Postalsavings banks open a way for insignificant deposits to accumulate and be come appreciable value to theldepositors In this way banks are an incentive for economy and induce thrift Selftrespect accompanies the posses sion of a little money and such a system therefore tends to better citizenship It also tends to place considerable money at the distposal of the government otherwise would be lost both to the government and the citizen It seems to me that the plan ought to be worked out to great advantage to everybody concerned Third Assistant Postmaster General Merritt said to the same correspondentThe should be encour aged in habits of thrift and econo my once formed will rapidly grow and spread and postalsavings banks will

provements thereon based on incomes li censes or franchises which may be either fl addition to or in lieu of ad valorem taxes tboreonThe object of this amendment is to interfere in any way with he mode of levying taxes for state purposes but to give all cities and towns with the approval of the legislature the right of selfgov so far as the levying of axes for our town and city purposes is concerned Some people have supposed that the amend IheiIt applies to all cities and towns and is very important to them The city and town taxes are very much heavier than state taxes It costs more to
