UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Single Copies10 Cents. VOL. IV, No. 33.CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, MAY 28, 1896.rur CI\USE I\ND REMEDY.J. S. COXEY.The present conditions of universal distress in ourcountry have made nearly �11 men and women wonderand inquire, "What is wrong?" Usually it goes nofurther than the question, but the very fact that thequestion is asked is an encouraging sign to one whofor nineteen years has appealed to his fellow men. Inmy opinion the first thing to be done is to arrive atthe cause of this diseased condition, and then to findthe remedy. The principal cause is the false financialcredit system.When the people were employed in the spring of1893 prior to the panic, we had $1,500,000,000 ofactual money, consisting of gold, silver and the vari­ous kinds of paper money issued by our general gov­ernment. Two-thirds of this, or $ [,000,000,000, wasin the hands of the people and used in making theirexchanges. After they bad paid their debts they tooktheir surplus earnings and deposited them in thebanking institutions. These deposits of the peoplewith the bankers were debts of the bankers to the peo­ple, but the bankers loaned it out to the manufacturersthat were employing the people, and received intereston it. Therefore, the bankers were receiving intereston their debts, and the balance of the actual moneywas held in these same banking institutions as bankreserves. This amounted to $500,000,000. One-thirdof our entire volume of money was practically out ofcirculation through these reserves, and yet 'it was thefoundation for another killd. of money that I term"confidence money," which exchanged products thesame as government money which consisted of com­mercial paper, commonly called notes running threeto four months' time. The manufacturers deliveredtheir prod nets, then received these notes in payment.Had not these notes answered the purpose of money?They had exchanged the products from the manu­facturer to the jobber or consumer. After receivingthe notes the manufacturer would endorse them, andturn them in to the banker for discount. The bankerwould discount them, deduct the discount and creditthe manufacturer with the balance; then these notesor this commercial paper would be subject to check.Our bank reports show that in the spring of 1893they had discounted $4,500,000,000 of commercialpaper, and as qnick (.IS it was discounted it was S'1P� ject to check; then what were the manufacturerschecking upon? Why, upon the deposits of theiremployes. Then the business of the country de­pended upon their employes allowing their money toremain in the banks as deposits. For, as quick asthey would draw their money out the bankers wouldhave no money to discount notes with, and the manu­facturers not being able to get their notes discounted,could 110t get money to pay their men and meet theirnotes, and would be compelled to close down theirworks and throw their people out of employment.The above is a true description of what was usedin employing the people aud making their exchangesin the spring of 1893.What deranged and paralyzed our business ill 1893?England put $108,000,000 of securities on our mar­ket, and converted them into gold, and commencedthe withdrawal of the gold from our country. Thenthe great daily newspapers commenced this agitationeditorially that the continued purchase of silver bythe government' through the purchasing clause of theSherman act, which made it mandatory on the Secre­tary of the Treasury to purchase each and everymonth four millions five hundred thousand ounces -of,silver and to pay therefor in treasury notes a legaltender for debts, at the market price of the silver.This l.rought into circulation each month under thislaw $4,000,000 of money. The gold gamblers ofWall street and national bankers wanted this law re­pealed because it brought the government into com­petition with them in the money market, thereforetheir agents-the daily press, commenced the agita­tion as stated, that it was going to create a panic.These newspapers, going into the homes of the peo­ple who had deposited their earnings with the bank­ers, the people became frightened and rushed to thebanks to get their deposits. These runs being madeupon the banks, the bankers had no money to dis­count notes with and therefore the manufacturersbeing unable to get their notes discounted could notget money to pay their men, closed down their worksand. threw their people upon the highway helplessand nowhere to sell their labor. Four millions be­came idle through this panic made by the gamblersin Wall street, and sixteen millions of their immedi-of one law, that the commonweal army marched fourh uudred miles to appeal to Congress to pass, and giveevery man opportunity to sell his labor in beautifyingand improving our country when they cannot find em­ployment in producing the necessaries and comforts oflife. We see now products stored up that people cannotbuy, therefore we do not want to produce more surplusproducts, but to start the idle and unemployed to pro­ducing something that cannot be put upon the marketto be sold to come into competition with the surplusproducts stored up. T'hen start them to work inbuilding good roads, and various public improvements,and while they are doing this they will create value.Then let the government issue money on the valuecreated, and pay these men for services rendered thesame as they did the soldiers during the war, and inthis manner the men will have a purchasing power tobuy products that are now stored away-which theycannot buy now, and this will substitute a cash sys­tem, to take the place of a credit system that hasfailed us twice in the last twenty-two years.You ask me to state how the relief can come.Only one way, and that is through education first, andthen political action second. The adoption of theNon- Interest Bond bill will bring this about and giveimmediate relief.908 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.ate families dependent upon them, making a total oftwenty millions of our own consumers taken out ofou� own market. Is it any wonder that the revenuesof our government should fall off, when twenty mil­lions of our own people had been stopped from con­suming foreign as well as domestic products?Is it any wonder that cotton fell to four cents perpound, when twenty millions of our own people hadbeen stopped from purchasing the cotton cloth thatthe cotton is woven into?The same thing applies to wheat, glass, iron, steel,borses, cattle, sheep and all of the products consumedby the great producing classes. Manufacturers un­able to get their notes discounted, were compelled tothrow their products upon the market to realize uponthem to get money to pay debts, therefore competitorsmust either meet the prices or else allow their goodsto remain upon their hands unsold, and in order tomeet the price they must cheapen the cost of produc­tion, and who does it strike now?

Next Saturday we expect topost a telegraphic bulletin after every inning.All are pleased by the excellent reportswhich have thus far come from the easterngames of the baseball team.

H.Clarke in Kent auditorium this evening, for the bene­fit of "the Oratorical Association, ought to be wellattended. The association is destined to become oneof the most important student organizations in theUniversity and is certainly worthy of support. As tothe high character of the recital itself no comment isnecessary, as Mr. Clarke's work is too well known,"Petrified Glaciers."A discovery of some interest to Chicago. people,and one that has not heretofore been chronicled, wasmade during the recent Peary relief expedition. Itwas in regard to glaciers, and was made by our ownProfessor Salisbury, eminent in glacial geology onaccount of his important discoveries both in America. and in Europe. Here is another to add to his laurels.It occurred when the ship, bearing the relief expe­dition of last summer, was approaching Greenland,between the Island of Disco and the main land, nearWaigat, and southeast of Melville Bay. The shorerose abruptly into a line of rugged hills, covered withwhite that glistened in the sun. The peculiarity ofthe snowy coating was that it was ribbed and ap­peared to be snow that had been deeply gullied bystreams. The whole hillside was a series of ridgesalternating with gullies running down the slope, thisextending for miles along the coast.Professor Salisbury saw in this curious formationevidence of a new and wonderful glacial action, andat once Legan taking profuse notes of his criticalobservations. In his enthusiasm he confided hisdiscovery to Professor Dyche, the zoologist of theUniversity of Kansas, and explained exactly howthose ribbed glaciers were formed. The latter wasskeptical, but to all his objections Professor Salisburyreturned unanswerable arguments. He was convincedthat here was indeed a new form of glaciers. Eventhe horizontal lines of dirt, that extended along thehillside, over ridge and gully, were explained by Pro­fessor Salisbury-to his own satisfaction, at least.This happened about midnight, though the sunwas in the sky. Professor Salisbury soon after"turned in" below to get his few hours of dailysleep. About four o'clock, when the ship touchedland, Professor Dyche preceded Professor Salisburyon deck, and discovered the �rue composition of thealleged glaciers. He at once called down the com-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.panion way, "Professor Salisbury! Professor Salis­bury! Come up and see your petrified glaciers! "Professor Salisbury soon came bounding up thestairs, exulting in the expectation of having hisglacial theory verified, and was shown a specimenfrom the glaciers. To his utter chagrin - he found itwas nothing but sand-fine white sand! The land­front was serrated with great ridges of white sandalternating with gullies running down the hillside tothe shore. Extending away to' the distance, theypresented exactly the appearance of snow-cappedmountains, with glaciers reaching down their sides.During the remainder of the trip, there was one jokethat could be depended on to relieve the monotony oflife on shipboard. And it was not until Prof. Salis­bury obtained relief in separation from the remainingmembers of the expedition on returning, that he heardthe last of his "petrified glaciers" -if, indeed, thatbe the last.Should anyone desire to have this narrative verified,let him ask to see Prof. Salisbury's notes on petrifiedglaciers.

The arrange­ment is such that the pupil must study to know the rule ofgood use and to be able to follow it. The English Departmentof the University recommends this book as the best yet writtenfor the purpose.Law at a Glance. By F. M. Payne. pp . .JI8. $I.OO. New York: Excel­sior Publishing House.This book is an epitome of the business and domestic lawsof the several states of this country and the laws of the gen­eral government of the United States. It has heen compiledfor the sake of business men who will find in it a convenientmode of informing themselves concerning the rights and lia­bilities growing out of their manifold business relations. Asfar as practicable the author has endeavored to lay down rulesof law of every-day use and importance without the use oftechnical expressions, and in such a manner as to be readilyunderstood and practically applied by persons who have givenno attention to the study of the law.Practical Co-Operatlon in Real Estate.There have been few plans presented to the public whichhave stood the test of good business reasoning, whereby thesmall investor is assured of a pro rata division of profits accru­ing from a large operation in real estate. While many schemesof co-operation fail or pan out poorly, still it is generallyrecog­n ized that the principle of co-operation is gaining groundrapidly. This principle is a popular one with capitalists;combination after combination is made and large profits se­cured thereby. To such an extent is this carried by themoneyed interests that those of smaller means are driven outof active competition for trade and the same is true. in thefield of investment. Indeed, this is so far true that men ofmoderate means often resort to speculation as the only oppor­tunity for the profitable use of small sums outside of business.This method is nevertheless an unwise one; it involves takinggreat and oftentimes unknown risks of loss in the visionaryhope of large gains and is one of the greatest, because mostwidespread, evils of the day. It is well known that nearly allsafe openings for large returns are sought by capital and soplaced beyond the reach of small sums. These conditions, inbusiness, and out of it, confront the small investor and causehis failure from simple lack of opportunity. The smaller thesum the less power per dollar zt has either to choose investmentin or out of business or to protect the investment wizen made.It is a satisfaction to note, however, that small investors areso generally recognizing the absolute necessity of combiningtheir small sums to compete successfully with large capital andthat the best financial talent of the conn try is directed to meet­ing that need, and we have the savings bank, the trust com­pany, the insurance company with its investment policy, andthe building and loan association as the result. All these havebeen useful in educating people to save and to use their sav­ings in combined effort, but they all fall short of providingthat" equality of opportunity" the times demand, in that theyearn interest only on money loaned. No plan yet devised,however, so fully meets the needs of small investors as the de­velopment of real estate by combined capital with mutualdivision of profits, and it is this principle which has made the American Real Estate Company, of New York, a prominentand successful financial institution. The Company's sole busi­ness is owning and dealing in selected city real estate for themutual benefit of shareowners. It does not loan, but buys,improves and sells, to gain business profit. which in everysuccessful business largely exceeds interest. Its assets arenow nearly $r,500,000, while its capital and surplus exceed$650,000. The Company was organized in 1888 and has fromthe beginning met cordial indorsement. With perfected de­tails an d a successful eight years' record, it has graduallyextended its business. The test of its general appreciation isfound in the high character of its certificate holders, many ofwhom are representati ve business men of the large cities of thecountry, and the test of its successful management is in theprofits realized on matured certificates, which have been fromtwelve to fourteen per cent per annum on the sum investedsince the organization of the Company. The company issnesInvestment Certificates for any desired amount on installmentpayments during a term of years, ann invests the funds re­ceived thereon-in addition to its own foundation capital-inits business. Certificates are contracts of the corporationsecured by its entire assets, and guarantee to investors: Thefull sum invested; Interest, six per cent, payable annually;Business profits-a pro rata share, payable at maturity; Lib­eral Surrender Privileges-in case of death or inability to con­tinuepayments; At Maturity-repayment with profits in cash;or the option of re-investing in an Income Certificate, payinginterest and profits thereafter yearly in cash.The value of this plan i; that it combines sound businessprinciples, large capital and capable management advantagesevery investor shares in and could not get individually, and bythis combination brings within reach of everybody those op­portunities heretofore limited to capitalists. The companyowns the famous Park Hill property, at Yonkers-on-the-Hud­son alongside the city of New' York, opposite the beautifulPalisades of the Hudson.

The ambitious strife of the citycauses exhaustive drains upon themental and physical resources of men,and it is singular that more do not seethe necessity for rest.But where can this be obtained? Thetime occupied in lying around in a ham­mock, or loafing on the veranda of some.busy hotel, does not refresh the mind orstrengthen the body. The proper relax­ation is to enter in to the delights of pis­catorial pastime, hunting, boating, orsome other occupation that will brushaway the cobwebs from the musty cham­bers of the intellect.And then the bnsy housewife and thechildren need the change of air andscenery. Not all families can afford themore expensive outings that involve avisit to some far away resort, but theGoodrich Line, with its magnificentsteamships, offers all the opportunity ofa pleasant, healthfnl trip at very moder­ate expense.
