MONEY BANKING AND CURREN-
CY.
Mr. Edward Atkinson estimates
that our internal exchanges involve
the expenditure of $35000000000
annually. The clearing’ house ex-
changes in 1894 involved $45000-
000000. The sum paid for the
transportation of goods over the
railroads alone in 1893 was more
than $800000000. We have sl-
655039000 of gold silver and gov-
ernment and bank paper in circula-
tion. If we add our foreign com-
merce to Mr. Atkinson’s reasonable
estimate of the value of our domes-
tic transactions we have on the
quantitative theory exchanges de-
manding the employment of $36-
500000000 of tools which is more
than twenty times the sum of
government and bank coin and cur-
rency in circulation. To sum up
this part of the argument we have
never had a coined dollar for every
outstanding paper representative
of a dollar and we never shall have.
We have never had a dollar in cur-
rency for every dollar involved in
exchanges and wc do not need any
such amount of money any more
than a farmer needs ten 40 bushel
wagons because he has to deliver
400 bushels of wheat. The quanti-
ty of money needed is best settled
by the demand for it.
Exchanges between those who
produce and those who desire their
products have never been and nev-
er will be checked by lack of legal
tender currency. In the simple
community which I have imagined
exchanges were facilitated by the
use of the store keepers orders.
Whenever food fuel and clothes ex-
ist and there is a demand for them
there will be exchange or trade.
Men will obtain what they want and
people who say that trade is stop-
ped because there is not enough
coined money to'pay for all that is
needed are talking nonsense. In
1893 there was a currency famine
—that is the money and currency
of the country were not available
for tiade. Moreover exchanges
were checked because demand was
pretty generally satisfied. Men
were able to wait until doubt and
uncertainty should cease and there
should be a return of general con-
fidence without which commerce is
impossible. But the unwillingness
of bankers to lend money was met
by the invention of devices to take
the place of the. regular and hoard-
ed currency of the country. Cities
banks and private corporations-and
firms invented new forms of cur-
rency and exchanges in the necess-
aries of life went on with the aid of
these improvised tools. The coun-
try did not need more money but
it did need the removal of a certain
fear which kept people from desiring
to risk investment of their cash
and therefore left the cash locked
up and out of circulation. That
fear was that our money was to be
debased and that our standard of
value was to cease to be that which
prevailed in the rest of the civilized
world.- | Harper's Weekly.
Anyone who has ever had .’in at'
tack of inflammatory rheumatism
will rejoice with Mr. J. A. Stumin
220 Hoyle Heights Los Angeles
over his fortunate -escape from a
siege of that distressing ailment.
Mr. Stumin Is foreman of Merriams'
confectionery establishment. Some
months ago on; leaving the heated
work room to run across the street
on an errand he was caught out in
the rain. The result was that when
ready to go home that night he was
unable to walk owing to inflamma-
tory rheumatism He was taken
home and on arrival was placed in
front of a good fire and thoroughly
rubbed with Chamberlain’s Pain
Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed
with this liniment and by morning
was relieved of all rheumatic pains.
He now takes especial pleasure In
praising Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and always keeps a bottle of it In
the house. For sale by Smith Drug

A DAVY CROCKETT CURRENCY.
Our present method of replen-
ishing the treasury with bonds sug-
gests the story of Davy Crockett's
coonskin. Peltries were a circul-
ating medium in the backwoods
and Davy at (he loghouse tavern
paid for the drinks with the fur of
a coon which had been the sole
reward of lilh prowess with the
rille that day. The bartender
threw Ihe pelfry under I lie rude
ciiuiiti’r anil Davy recnverliig it
through an Interstice in the logs
li'iideivd it in payment lor auolliei
"round” and repeated the trick
until he and Ids coiupetltors had
drained the barrel and the puzzled
proprietor discovered that as a re-
sult ol the prosperous trade he had
been driving he had nothing on hand
but the same old cooiiHkin.
Last l.''cbruary when the treasury
reserve ran low II was replenished
by the uni of fifty millions of new
government b pci’ cent bonds for
gold the proceeds amounting to
upward of llfty-clglil millions as
the bonds commanded a high pre
niliim. That wan all very wc'l mo
fat .i It went but Hie people who
had paid in the gold saw a hole
through which they could surrept-
itiously pull it out again: This was
the obligation of the treasury and
its branches to deliver gold in re-
demption of legal tenders when
presented in sums ot SSO or more.
Through this hole all the gold re-
ceived for the bonds was soon
drawn out of the treasury again
and its present owners stand ready
to repeat the trick by paying it
over the counter once more for the
new issue of government bonds.
Given a continuance of existing
conditions and this same sixty mil-
lions gold could be used as often as
Davy Crockett’s pelfry and after
the government had issued a thous-
and millions of bonds the treasury
would have nothing but the same
old gold reserve with which it start-
ed.—[Ex.
The Ghost of a Chance.
Is a very shadowy affair. Ere the
chance of recovery becomes a van-
ishing ghost take a most potent
means of overcoming the inactivi-
ty of the organs that terminates in
their too frequently fatal disease
by resorting to Hostetter’s Stom-
ache Bitters which gives just the
requisite impulse to the renal or-
gans to promote their vigorous ac-
tion without exciting them an
effect too often produced by the
fiery and unmedicated stimulents
of commerce. Bright’s disease
diabetes alid inactivity of the blad-
der are foes of terrible menace to
the system. The inroads may how-
ever be stayed if they are met at
the start and combatted with the
Bitters. This fine and genial cor-
rective also remedies malaria dys-
pepsia rheumatism debility ner-
vousness and the infirmities incident
to age. It hastens convalescence
and is promotive of sleep and appe-
tite.

Marvelous Results.
From a letter written by Rev. J.
Gunderman of Dimondale Mich.
we are permitted to make this ex-
tract: “1 have no hesitation in
recommending Dr. King’s New Dis-
covery as the results were almost
marvelous in the case of my wife.
While I was pastoi of the Baptist
Church at Rives Junction she was
brought down with pneumonia suc-
ceeding LaGrippe. Terrible parox-
ysms of coughing would last hours
with little interruption and it seem-
ed as if she could not survive them.
A friend recommended Dr. King’s
New Discovery it was quick in its
work and highly satisfactory in re-
sults.” Trial bottles free at Smith
