The News evidently got credits
mixed in reproducing the para-

as the Blade does not remember
of recently expressing any views
on the subject; nevertheless it is
perfectly willing to admit of en-

expressed therein. It should only
require a passing thought to re-

so) when they are placed in

It is claimed now that gold
will become so plentiful during
this century that its value as a
money metal will be entirely de-
stroyed; that the money kings
are even now oasting about for
some plan to either limit the pro-
duction of gold or to prohibit the
free and unlimited coinage of the
metal into money. Of course,
suoh a declaration in a political
platform would be the death
knell to any political party, just
as a declaration in favor of stop-
ping the coinage of silver would
have been twenty years ago. But
when the krdsof finance discover
that their interests demand the
limited coinage of gold into
money they will devise the plan,
and its coinage will be limited,

has taken the position that flow-
ers should be denied the gradu-

that none are to be accepted by

^orae graduates are smothered !

meritorious are overlooked. Thai
inequality naturally causes heart-

the above rule.—Bowie Blade,

exactly right. “ For there are
