Hon. Walter L Smith Tell of Finaucial
Legislation in List Congress.
OCAL MEN ENTERTAIN THE VISITORS
Officers Elected and Mach of Impor
tance Is Dlscassed Attendance
From All Over the Dis
trict Is Large.
The principal address before the meeting
of group 1 of the Iowa State Bankers' asso
ciation, held yesterday at the Grand hotel,
waa that by Congressman Walter I. Smith,
who spoke on the subject, "Financial Legis
lation Proposed and Enacted by the Fifty-
seventh Congress." After stating that
there was considerable more legislation pro
posed than waa enacted Congressman Smith
said In substance:
The most ImDortant proposition embodied
In law was that establishing the gold
standard In the Philippines. There seemed
to be but little doubt but that sometning in
this direction ought to be done. I he busi
ness of the islands was being conducted
upon a sliver basis, the Mexican dollar
being the chief actual medium of exchange.
nrt the tremendous nurtuations in the
price of silver caused such derangement In
the revenues as to threaten the bankruptcy
of the Philippine government.
There were two very oinerent propositions
for remedying this evil. The first, and I
think the better, proposition was simply to
extend the American monetary system to
the Islands. The other was to establish the
gold standard In the Philippines, but to
make the unit of value the peso or iz.
grains of standard gold, and to coin a sil
ver peso or 4i grains -w nne, eacn silver
peso to pass as the equivalent of one-half
of the American dollar, and Imposing upon
the Philippine government the bunion of
maintaining the parity of these silver coins
with gold. By this system, which was
adopted, the gold standard was established
in the islands and at the same time the
people were given a coin of substantially
the same size and weight of the Mexican
dollar and of substantially the same pur
chasing power.
Three Important Bills.
The three most Important bills proposed
during the last congress which failed were
the first Fowler bill, the second Fowler
bill tind the Aldrlch bill. The first Fowler
bill waa far too sweeping in character. It
sought by a single measure to remedy all
the Ills, actual and supposed, In the mone
tary system. Some of Its provisions were
wise and some very unwise, and some of
those that were wise In the abstrart were
not of a character to be sustained by pub
lic sentiment. , ,
One of the greatest evils of our financial
svstem Is that under the system of green
back redemption the government keeps a
large stock of gold on hand and when any
onexwlshes to export gold he can obtain It
by simply demanding It of the treasury
without cost for exchange. This is not true
In anv other country. Everywhere else If
one wishes to export gold he must seek it
and buy it. and this Is substantially always
attended with trouble and expense of colt
lectins It and with the charge of a small
premium for It. The result is thst gold
goes out of the country when the rnte of
exchange on Europe Is such to Justify it.
but will not ni( bark until the rate of
American exchange in Europe has gone
above the rate of European exchange here
which sent it out. The fact that gold thus
leaves this country and will -not return
when ths conditions are exactly reversed
Is highly prejudicial to us. But there seems
no war by wnicn mis nn -mo
long aa the government maintains a gold
reserve which can be raided by all who de
sire to export gold. The only way this diffi
culty can be obviated would be to retire
the greenbscks snd for this the people ere
not prepared now. if they ever will be. The
first Fowler bill sought such an end. but to
offset any benefit that might have fen de
rived from this it provided that the silver
dollar should be redeemed by the govern
ment, thus making the substantially aX
000.000 of silver the equivalent of freen-
baeka. and so aereaung any B""
might have been obtained from the retire
ment of the greenbacks. ,
The second t owier oiu wn " "; -
and contained nothing but a prr-r. -
experimental asset currency The eastern
banks are clamorous for the Passage : of
such a bill. Insisting that some such form
of emergency currency Is essential to the
relief of the financial situation In times of
monetary depression.
I was at one time much Impressed with
the desirability of elasticity In the cur
rency and do not now dlapute its adv.a
S. although Kve doubt Is thrown
upon this question by the reflection that

ever the? desirability of elasticity In the
curri-ncv the fact remains that "T
fencv could not under any P;P
latlnn be treated as a part of a bank a re
serve and th chief difficulty In recent
flmes with eastern banks hss not been to
obTsln sufficient loanable funds, but to
maintain a sufficient reserve.

State Troop Not Needed.
Governor Cummins and Adjutant General
Byera today decided that unless there are
some new developments in the strike sit
uation at Dubuque, no companies of the
mllltla will be Bent there from any other
point in the state, . , Indications are now
that the local autbocHlea have the matter
well in hand. There was some rioting in
cident to the street car strike and the com
pany in Dubuque . waa called out by the
sheriff, as he has a right to do, to assist
In doing police duty. The governor was
attending commencement at the State unl-
verslty at Iowa City and the adjutant gen
eral was out of the city engaged In mus
tering in a new company at Osceola, but
both were kept Informed of what was go
ing on. Today they reached the conclusion
that there Is no crisis at Dubuque needing
a call of the troops. General Byers went
to Cedar Rapids this evening to look after
the repairs on the state rifle range, and
Governor Cummlrs expects to go east In
a few days.

Most people have an idea that Rheumatism is contracted like a cold, that the
damp, chilly air penetrates the muscles and joints and causes the terrible ache and
pains, or that it is something like a skin disease to be rubbed away with liniments or
drawn out with plasters; but Rheumatism originate in the blood and is caused by
Urea, or Uric Acid, an irritating, corroding poison that settles in muscles, joint and
nerves, producing inflammation anu sore
ness ana the aharp, cutting pains peculiar
to thi distressing disease.
Exposure to bad weather or sudden
chilling of the body will hasten an attack
of Rheumatism after the blood and sys
tem are in the right condition for it to
develop, but have nothing to do with the
real true causes of Rheumatism, which
are internal and not external.
Liniments, plasters and rubbing will
aorzetlmea reduce- the inflammation and
swelling and ease the nain for a time.
but fail to relieve permanently because
they do not reach the seat of the
