e e NAT P. BROWN, Proprietor. FRED HE. BROWN, Manager. TERMS OF SUBSORIPTION $6 Por Year . By Carrier, Delivered to any vart_ofjthe city. ee ee ee ee eee eee ee ee ee ee ee oy ‘ONE EFFECT OF EXPANSION? HE UNITED STATES has been enjoying two kinds of expansion simultaneously, expansion of territory and expansion of money, both ‘likely to prove advantageous in the long ran, though in different ways. While the quantitative theory of money has-only-a—-partiak justification in fect, it does have enough of a justification to make it play an important part in the affaire of men, and especially is this true when, ‘as in the present instance, the expansion of circulating medium has been mainly due to an increaee in gold production. nln sf In this connection the recent report of Henry Olews and Co. suggests some interesting facts for reflection. This authority declares that the United States, has, during the last seven years, had an increase in its circulating medium of $847,000,000 which, notwithstanding the increase in population meantime, has noreaced the per capita circulation from $28 to $41, an increase that this country had not before known. ‘ If this increase were of paper, and especially of flat mouey, we might be very sure of a day of reckoning and a wind-up with a smash-up, but inasmuch as the increase is more than three fourths of. good, yellow gold, the world’s best money, there cannot be any danger of that. It is the gold that is measuring the values of commodities, and it is the increase of gold that has caused real estate to advance in price in numerous places throughout our State, in common with other parts of the country. It bas also stimalated improvement, for when the gold has been taken out of the ground and coined into money that money must find use somawhere and where better than in building more stately mansions for people to live in, and bigger, safer and bandsomer buildings for them to do business in? There ie all the difference in the world between an expanded paper‘and an expanded gold circulation. The one is an inflation, the other isa growth, The one is sure to burst when its strength is overtaxed; the other can not fail to increase, unless the men who mine in the bowels of th? earth, or eift the sands and gravels, are no longer able to find gold as a reward for their enterprise and endeavo:. That is not at all likely to occur. For these reasons it ie warranted to anticipate that the price level, espec~ lally to real estate values, will continue in the ascendent. The present redandency in representative forms of money may undergo a ‘contraction as a safe. guerd against tendencies toward injurious inflation, but there are tens of thousands of men searching for gold to add to the world’sstock whose hands can not be stayed, and so long as success attends them in their search so long will basic values tend upward and property bought today will be worth more tomorrow than it cost to buy it, This, otber things belng equal, is as certain as the succession of the seasons or the tides. > @46464464464%3 64 THE NEW FOURTH HICAGO, enterprising in all things, hag invented a new Fourth of Jaly. Realizing that the present style of celebration had many defects, it set itself to devise a substitute and thinks it has succeeded, How great ite success will be can only be aecertained by actual experiment. The fifth of July will tell the story better than any earlier date, The small boy is not to be wholly deprived of his firecrackers, but efforts are to be made to save his life and limbs. That the projectors of the new Fourth witb their safety freorackers and other appliances are not sitogether confident as to the result is shown by the fact that a sort of a Red Oross annex is to be established to give speedy aid to the injured. Chicago realizes that the gunpowder habit is so firmly established that it cannot at once be uprooted. The small boy considers it an inalienable right secured by the Declaration of Independence, which he loves to commemorate, to be permitted to blow off a few flongers, fill bis eyes with powder grains, or set fire to the property of his neighbors, Any attempt to deprive him of these privileges will be met by force. That a reform is needed is patent, but it must bea gradual one. A substitution mas be allowed without a too vigorous protest, und by a process of imperceptible evolution the future citizen may be slowly led to something better. Whetber the Ohicago way is the best remains to be seen. : Editorial Notes. Queen Liliuckalani is in 8t. Louis 86 a guest, but ehe has to move around with considerable celeajty to avoid being classed by the the managers as an exhibit. The Oriental war is comparatively barmless, after all. Inthe th ee land battles slready reported, there have been fewer men killed cn both sides than suffered violent deaths in Ohicago last month, namely 266. Sanekrit, and degenerates that the average man faile to understand what he hears, A highly educated clergymen requires @ correspondingly highly edacated congregation. At last the case of Postmaster Van Cott of New York bas been reached in the investigation of post office irregularities and the Presidont has ordered that official to dismiss his son from the service and to refund the salary which paid a relative who did nothing to earn it. It is a little early yet for the people to visit the St. Louis exbibition, since the farmers are etill engaged in seedfog, bu' later on the grand rush will begin. The fair really opened a month toosoon, and thus far about %15,000 per day have been paid for admissions. Bat it may yet be a grand euccess, and save Uncle Sem the necessity of taking charge of the gates and putting the receipts into the pockets of those striped trousers. The total number of delegates in the Republican convention at Chicago will be 992—two of them from the island of Porto Rico. The 1400 delegates attending the Young Men’e Ohristian Associatien convention at Baffalo, were delighted to receive a letter from President Boosevelt, in which he commended them for not confining themselves to talking -bnt by trying to realize in some degree on this earth the ideals ‘ot Obristianity. A number of people very well known socially ia New York heave been eubpoenaed to appear before Justice Jerome and tell what they know about Oanfield’s celebrated gambling place. Meanwhile Mr. Oanfleld bas sold out and gone to Europe. There is no truth in the ineinuation which bas béen made that Mr. Ware, the Commissioner of Pensions ie anxious to resign hie position on account of the extra work and criticisms asa resalt of the celebrated Executive order number 78, granting pensions to Civil War soldiers over 62 years of age. It has long been known that the Commissioner never wanted the position ; 12 T=26 Per Week . , a Pleasing Play. A great question now agitating some good people is why young men do not go tochbroh. Fora long time peop!: have been groping about in the dark for an anewer, It now appears that the clergy are so highly overeducated and ‘have’so much to sey about «rt, ethnology, psychology, logic, Hebrew, that be consented to take it only to oblige the President who threatened to “draft” him if he declined to “vole unter.” For 8 good cool, sharp glass of terr cell at Wm, Harry’s saloon PricaS cia The Frank Cooley ComENR ont Oi “ae ¢ pany to Appear in Tonight the Frank Cooley Company op:ns their engagement in ‘For Her Father’s Sia.” Everyone ‘likes to laagh, so this will suit the people here, as it brings out some of the biggest laughs you have hed this year, and you will remember, them go that you cae Jeugh again. : The Gowpany fe stronger now than pever shd their plays are the best set used ty any repertoire company.

Frank Cooley is the son of Alice Kingsbury, who played ‘Fanchon” here thirty odd years ago, when McCallough and Barrett were at their beight on this coast. She was known as.the “Elfin Star,” and came to California to play ten nights at Maguire’s opera house, instead of which she played there ten months ata etretch, and then came back and played another long engagement.

The members of the Fourth of Jaly Finance committee began a canvass for subecriptions. this morning. At noon Oommercial street was completed and the aggregate amount far exceeded any that has been given for many years. This afternoon the committee devoted their attention to Broad street, and up to our press time the subscriptions being received were very liberal, The auccess attending this canvace means that the coming celebration will be a grand affair. It takee money to carry out ‘a good observance of Independence Day,and our people are never lacking in this respect. This . . year every effort: possible will be exerted to have the Great-American eagle scream louder than ever. The Rates at St. Lous, Sr. Louis, May 19—Gevo, W. McBride a member of the National Commission for the World’s Fair says erroneous reports have been sent out regarding the charges for rooms and meale in St, Louis. Mr. McBride ‘says ; “I have spent several days inspecting rooms offered for rent, learning prices asked for roome and board in private dwellings and in boarding-houees of good class both for myself and for friends, and I find that the rates charged In the residential district are very reasonas ble. I am surprised to learn how many private families are offering rooms to visitors. Idonbtif there is another city of the size of St. Louis in the United States that has so many pretty homes in its residence district, and a large proportion of these houses are offering rooms to guests. Visitors whe wish to see the exposition at moderate expense can find good, clean comfortable rooms and good board at reasonable rates by going into the resident district, where more than half the houses offer such accommodations. St. Louis bas about 500 restaurants. Substantial meals can be enjoyed at these eating plivces at rates running from fifteen cents up. For a quarter of a dollar one can get a square meal at ecores of restaurants, There are mauy bigh class cafes where the service is a la carte or table d’horle, with prices not above the reach of persone in moderate circumstances. As to roome, the experience of a writer fo. the Press Baréau of the World’s Pair may be taken a6 indicating the situation. This attache placed a smalladvertisement ln a local newepaper for s room, He received forty-four responses the first dey, being offered .excellent rooms as low as $2 per week, and large rooms with bath ead all modern conveniences at $5 per week. There are many hotels where clean and come fortable rooms may be had at $1 per day. Stories of exorbitant charges should be discountenanced by prose pective Worln’s Fair visitors.” New Schedule On Electric Read.
