THE CAUSE OF FALLING TRICES,
A Miwlcrly Address Whlcli

Mil-
AtthoLako District Fair at Butb.

Botso deltyored the following addrceB:
Ladles and gentlemen:
Tbo subject of my address may seem
to many of you difficult to understand,
and consequently uninteresting.
I did not select It wllb the expecta
tion that I could amuse by lta discus
sion, but because I believe It more di
rectly concerns your personal Interests
and tbe wolfuro of our state and tbe
nation tban any otber of n public char
acter with wbloli the American people
will be called to deal 'in tbe neur
future.
It lias been well said that tbe cur.
renoy of a country la Its llfo blood,
It necessarily follows that tocontum
lnato It Is to taint the vitals of tbo
nation through whose arteries It cir
culates, and to contract it Is in a busi
ness eenso to weaken tbe heart throbB
of tbo commonwealth from whoso
veins it Is recklessly .withhold.
No people can long bo prosperous
without currency that is sound In
quality and ample in quantity.
Monoy is purely an artificial thing, a
creature of law, and the source of all
law In this country Is the will of tbe
people expressed by the votes of their
electors at tlio polls; - j
It is plain therefore, that thoso upon
whom tbo elective francbiso is con
ferred are directly responsible for the
character of currency with which the
nation Is supplied.
How necessary then, that thoso upon
whom this grave responsibility Is lm
noted should fairly comprehend the
elementary principles upon which our
currenoy Is based, and upon which it is
to be anally and firmly established.
If in what I am going to say I can
aid you or any of you in acquiring a
better understanding of this great ques
Shall we call It a double charm?
Nothing can be more charming tban
fine footwear, because It Is a charm
felt as well as seen. As to tbli matter
we feel convinced that no stock of sum
mer shoea can be finer tban ours, and
that nothing in Balem approaches our
display in style, quality or price. Our
shoes are far too cheap to make it toler
able to wear baok-numbera or shoes
that are mostly uppers. Our high-class
footwear presents the height offashlou
una Insures cool comfort and absolute
ease for the feet, fibre are shoes for
all occasions and occupations, in and
out of town, pleasure or bUBlnees, work
or outing; and they are besides a revel

Lot us begin this discussion then,
with the Inquiry,
What Is money?
If I Bhould hold up before you a na
tional bank note, thellko of which you
constantly handle in tho transaction of
your business, and ask if it is money,
many oi you wouiu probably answer
In the affirmative.
If you should tako it, however, and
carefully read what it says, you would
aoe I bat Instead of being monoy it is a
mere promise of tbe bank issuing it to
pay monoy.
In a legal sense It dooi not differ es
sentially 'from a promissory note mado
by an individual.
It circulates as monoy because under
our currenoy system, tbe bank Issuing

of all notes which it is permitted to

TOE BIG FIGHT LIABLE TO OCCUR
Governor Clurko Feebly Supports
Judgo Dufllo.
Little Rook, Ark., Oat, 12,-Gov-ernor
Clarke has been examining the
law to prevont prizefighting. Tho gov
ernor's pronuuciamento, which is in
favor of preventive measures, is re
garded as final. The governor will
hold himself ready to co-operate with
Judgo Duffle, of the Hot Bprlngs dis
trict, should It appear that the local
authorities fall to impress upon the
lighters and their baokers with sufflo
lont force the propriety of deolaring
the fight oil.
In addition to notifying President
Btuart, of tbe Florida Athletic Club,
by mall, of his determination, Gover
nor Clark today telegraphed Corbett
and Fltailmmona as follews:
"I am advised by the press dis
patches that it la your purpose at an
oarly date to engage in a prizefight
in this etate. The purpose of this Ib
to inform you that such an act Is In
violation of our laws and in aflront to
tbe sentiment of a state's pride ontor
talned by our our people. It will tboro
foro not be possible for you to accom
plish any suoh purpose, and any at
tempt on your part to do so will subject
you to penalties and to troatmont that
I am aura will bo highly dlstastoful to
you. I do not at this tluio know in
detail all tho complications In which
you may lie Involved in any such at
tempt, but I am well enough advised of
tbe nature and extent of tbe power and
authority with which you find your
self confronted to say that it wilt prove
sufficient to defer yqu from engaging lu
a prizefight in Arkansas. This Is
enough for you to know. Thoqucstlon
so fur as it relates to you docs not now
call for a citation of tbo construction of
statutes or other rules of law. In the
prtsent state of publlq opinion, prize
fighters bayo no rights which those in
authority are bound to respect."

Little Rock, Oot. 12. Governor
Clarke's letters to Judge Duller, Sheriff
Houpt and Dan Btuart, together with
telegrams to Jim Corbett and Bob
Fitzslmmons was given to the public
last night. Tbo subject is getting much
discussion here today. Bcntlment here
at Hot Bprlngs Is overwhelmingly In
favor of tbe contest. It is well known
here that personaly Governor Clarke la
not violently opposed to the proposed
contest. He is quoted as having said
recently that seven-tenths ot the people
of Arkansas wanted tbe fight, and twe
tenths are Indifferent, and all the
clamor against It came from tbe other
tenth. When Judge Duffer brought
the matter to the governor's attention
officially, however, he was obliged to
act.

Austin, Tex., Oct. 12. A well
kuown spoiling man of this city saya
there is but one place on the American
continent where the Corbett and Fitz
slmmons flKht can be pulled off and
that Is New Laredo, Mexico. He adds
that some throe weeks ago tho Florida
Athletic club signed papers to baye the
light in the bull ring al New Laredo,
and up to this hour tiavd not asked
for a release from the contract.
New Oara Ordered.
Chicago, Oot. 12. Fifteen thousand
new cars ordered for Chicago railroads

greatest placed by the combined Chi
cago roads since two years preceding

Farmers about Aurora are complain

Thoy contracted hops early at 7j to 12
cents, from one to five year contractu,
for purposes of speculation. Now that
hops aro away below the figures they
engaged hops at they are throwing up
tho bargains. In some cases they are
uot only refusing to take the hops but
aro demanding a return of tbe picking
money. Other companies and buyers
seem to bo keeping their agreement.
The hop market is demoralized. Only
3 cents Is offered on consignment.
Thos. Pomeroy of Mebania refused to
