CURRENCY REFORM PLANS.
The Republicans \vlu> arc re
tiring from official life al Wash
ington and those who are lo re
main, in the minority, are pre
dicting all sorts of trouble for
the Democrats in their efforts lo
revise the currency and enact
some law to meet the defects in
the present system.
Admitting the importance of
the Question and the difficulties
in the way of its solution, it is
certain that the Democrats can
do no worse Ilian have the Re
publicans, who have had the Ques
tion under consideration since
1890 and have made no progress
other than to become hopelessly
divided over the merits of the
Aldrich plan.
The Democrats admit, in their
platform, that something should
be done but. they give very little
inkling of definite ideas on the
subject. They declare against a
central bank. At least they are
_sure of what they do not want
to do. They declare for such a
“systematic revision of our bank
ing laws as will render temporary
relief in localities where such re
lief is needed, with protection
from control or domination by
by what known as the money
trust.”
The Democratic advantage, to
date, is that they are sure of
what htey do not want to do on
the money question. That is a
real advance over the Republican
attitude.
GET-RICH-QUICK.
- _"
About tin1 first evidence of fed
eral interference with the grab
it-all brotherhood was the pros
ecution of “lO-per-eenl" Frank
lin and the long list of gel-rich
quick promoters, under the aus
pices of the Post office Depart
ment .
Testimony offered before the
committee probing the money
trust shows I tint Mr. Morgan’s
bank in New York is earning 22(5
tier cent per annum. This would
suggest that the Department of
Justice be relieved and the Post
office Department put on the job.
CHILD SUICIDE.
Publicity given to the increas
ing number of child suicides in
European countries has led to un
official investigation of the sub
ject in America. The Iasi mini,
her of the Forum contains a table
of statistics compiled with a view
to determining the relative poig
nancy of child griefs resulting in
suicide. Well to tile fore is
found the fear of punishment.
Son^e other methods of correc
tion than the tradition-glorified
rod will have In he found, so it
seems, as an agency of child
training.
EDITORIAL MOTES.
Those prize fighters in Nome
saved either time or money by
having fought for nothing.
A magazine poet says its hard
to be poor. We can’t see, then,
why he should continue to write
poetry.
If steel could be chemically
changed info food tlie inhabitants
of Adriannple would be assured
a square meal on Monday nexl.
Assisi ant Secretary of State
Pierce denies complicity in I he
sealing graft so long practiced
on the Pribiloff islands. No one
expected him to ’fess up this early
in the game.
Castro finds it as difficult to
enter the United States as he
would his own country. The lit
tle Indian will leave America one
of these days with a modified idea
of I he meaning of liberty.
The suffragettes of Great Brit
ain will prove a valuable adjunct
to the labor party of that coun
try, as they are always on a strike
against the government and all
others who do not look at public
questions in the same light as
they do.
The Unionist members of Par
liament have given up all idea of
being able- to defeat the Irish
Home Rule bill. There is still
some hope for the Unionists, for
it is not all parties which can
tell when they have been thor
oughly licked.
F.lhach. the homh man of Los
Vngeles, might have known that
the people of the orange city were
getting tired of the too liberal
distribution of high explosives
and consequently will have a long
i period in which to reconsider his
i foolhardy act.
!
Those New York sulfragelles
j who conlernplalo riding from
Gotham lo San Francisco on
horseback had heller place their
soflvst pillows on I heir saddles
or else they will not he able to
sit, down when they reach I he
Goledn Gate metropolis.
Those who are seeking bonds
for some of the dynamiters re
port ability lo gel the signatures
of many men who are aide lo
qualify for small amounts, lint
they have difficulty in interesting
men of greater financial strength.
Which raises this question:
When Socialism shall have leveled
us all lo an equality of credit,
where will our criminals gel
their bonds?
The iT‘|Mirl nf the invest igalnr
shows the extent ‘of the white
slave IrafiT'e in one city alone. It
indeed fceems strange that the
good people, and they are in the
vast majority, should not rise up
in their might and put an end
to the debased traffic. No! alone
are there 26,000 women lost to
humanity, but through their pow
er to earn money municipalities
are corrupted and thousands of
young men corrupted.

It i- a fact that Valdez beer is a food and not a tonic.
Ask any doctor you know. Valdez beer aids digestion. Use
it a few times with your meals and you’ll And we’re right.
If you drink beer you should use Valdez beer in preference to
others. First, because of its unquestionable high quality.
Second, because it is a home product; brewed in your home
town and all who are interested in the growth and prosper
ity of Valdez should patroniz home products.
