The absolute rottenness of the cur- rence system proposed by the Indian- apolis crowd is beginning to be real- i by the public, and even the Chi- -avo Tribune is punching holes in the The following editorial appear- 27th, under the Impracticable plan. ed in that paper Jan, title “Booming an Scneme:” The convention called for the pur- pose of urging the adoption cf the Monetary commission’s cu y form plan met at Ludianapolis yeste: day. Governor Shaw of Lowa was chosen as presiding officer. Little was done the first day. Today the convention will settle down to busi: ness. This convention is made up of esti- mable men Who have undertaken ao impracticable task—that of persuad- ing the people and congress that they should accept an unsafe, retrograde plan of “currency retorm,” which if adopted would carry the country ck uo wildcat days and teach the present generation what the evils of ap inse- cu paper currency are. The managers of Lhis convention, who ure the authors of the monetary commission scheme, have undertaken to convince Lhe American people that it is best to have all the legal tender paper which the genera! government has coived and issued funded into interest-bearing bonds to the amount of 456 million @ollars, thus adding over 13 million dollars to the yearly interest bill. Nor is this all. The people are to be persuaded—if possib e—that the government should invite the banks io supply paper money to the amount ofa bidlion or more doilars. These notes, Which the banks are to issue atter the governmebt gone oul of the banking ‘usiness,” are not to be secured by United States bonds, as at preseut, but are to be a first lien on the assets of the bank. The promoters of the Monetary commission plan will have their hands full indeavoring to convince the peo- ple that these notes, secured by assets which are mainly the property of de- positors, will be any safer than the ile bank notes which used to cir- culate before tbe war. The ma the people will believe, spite of all the delegates to the Indianapolis vention can say, that bank note i: under the Monetary commission plan would be dangerous to note-holders and depositors, and when a_tinancial storm came most of tre banks would yo into the bands of receivers. The people are to be persuaded—if possible—that the legal tender notes which are redeemable in gold on de- mand shall be funded ard replaced by bank notes which are not to be re- deemable in gold on demand. They are to be wade redeemable in “lawful money,” which includes silver as well as gold. That cilver—which would be used always by banks for redemption pur- poses—is to be made redeemable in yvold by the treasury. So the pr moters of the Monetary commission plan must make the people believe, first, that the legal tender notes must be funded into interest-bearing bouds in order “to get che government out of the banking business,” ad, second, that it should “go into the banking business” so as to redeem 500 million silver dollars in gold on demand in order that the banks may not have to redeem tbeir notes in gold. The enthusiastic gentlemen who have assembled at Indianapolis will tind before they are much older that they have ‘bitten off more than: they can chew.” It may be that after they have butted their heads for.a few months against the stone wall of popular disapproval of their scheme they will see how hopeless are their efforts to deform the currency sys- tem.—The Free Press. CAPITAL JOTTINGS. Washington, Feb. 3, 1898. The Goverument advices from Klondike do not indicate quiet the deplorable conditions that have heretofore been talked of, yet the relief expeditions that have been un- dertaken are going foreward. From all points come reports of prepara- Liens on an expensive scale for next seasun’s exodus of gold or fortune- seekers, and Washington will con- tribute its full share. Many former government employers who have lost their jobs, and ex-officials of every degree, are looking towards the El- dorado. ‘he excellent map of Alaska and the Klondike region recently prepared by the Interior Department has had a greater de- mand than any otber public document published in years. Numerous com- pauies are organizing everywhere both for investment aud con perative exploration, and uudoubtedly some of these, with officers experienced in the country and acquainted with its peculiarities, cao offer great advan- tages over Individual effort, One of these which is attracting a good deal of attention at the Capital is the Klondike, Yukon and the Copper River Company, which has its princi- ple offices in the Washingten Loan and Trust building in this city. Some of its officers are ex-otlicials of | the government and also includes the present assistant Secretary of War, Hon. D. C. Meiklejohn, who formed connections with engineers _ and miners already on the ground, have: This company has just had a large and very fast steamship, built in Philadelphia and can give no details of their plans, but they invite cor- respondence. woe Men have been elected to congress who realized that speech-making was not their strong forte. They have either avoided it altogether, or else by the aid of a friendly news- paper man, sharp secretary or the seedy individnal who tramps the cor- riders, with a “daisy” of a speech under his ragged coat, he manages to get leave to print and puts an effu- sion in the Record that is far from being his own. Of course the in- stances of this sort are rare, but they exist and nearly every Congerss has a rare avis or two of this description. A well authenticated story, growing out.of this ready-made speech busi- ness, is told on a Congress in exist- ence some years ugo. An important measure was up and nearly all the members expréssed themselves upon it. This included two members who thought they had good speeches be- cause they had paid a good sum for them. The seller was evidently a rascal for he sold the same speech to two members. One of the gentlemen got.up, while the other one happened to be absent, and delivered his pur- chased production. Satisfied with himself he left the hall, and the other member came in, got recog’ tion, and then with plenty of force andsteam, delivered the same pro- duction, Ofcourse it got out, “and the two unfortunates never heard the lastof it. It is not reported what vecame of the rascal. THE PENNY IN COLLECTIONS, Such an Offering, Except From the Poor, is An Insult to God and His Church. “The important part which the penny plays in the average eburch offering is knowo to every one’ who has ever been inter- ested in church - tinances,” writes Edward W. Bok in tbe February Ladies’ Home Journal. “And that it isa part entirely out of proportion to the necessities, is felt and realized by many achurch treasurer. Scores of people who could afford to drop a nickel ora dime into the church of- fering, content themselves by giving apenny. The feeling is either that the smallest offering ‘will do,’ or the matter of church finances is not given apy thought. There a failure to realize that a church is the same as any other business institution, and it must have money for its mainten- ance. “There is such a thing as too literal an interpretation of the phrase that ‘religion is free.’ Of course it is free, and let us bupe that it will always ke free in this country. But t&make re- religion free costs money—and it isn’t an Irish bull, either. There are those to whom more than ‘the widow’s mite’ given to the chur:h would mean doing without ‘ome absolute neces- ity of life. The penny of such a one is the most welcome gift to any church, the most poble offering which any one can make. But from those who can give more than a penny, and who are giving only the penny, such an offering isan insult to God and to His church, and the sooner people see the matter in this hard, true light the better. 1am almost tempted to say that the majority of churches could, with perfect justice, rule out the penny from their offerings. Were this done the nickel would be the pre- vailing offering, aod to how few per- sons, when one stops to consider the question, would such an offering bea hardship or an impossibility? A yearly offering of two dollars and sixty cents, calculating that one at- tended church each Sunday, or twice, with one offering of five cents, would galvanize the church finances of this country.” TWO WEEKS’ TRIP EAST. $98.00—Covers All Expenses—$98.00.
