Tti« Report of Special Agent Elliott
To the Editor of The Chleafjo Tribune :
Cleveland, 0., July 19.—A telegram from
your Washington correspondent, recently pub
lished In your columns, does not qullo do mo
Justice i for, in speaking of my report to tho
Bocrotary of tho Treasury, it la stated that 1 an
nounce tlio worthlessness of tho Alaska fish

contrary, I epoak In high terms of tho value of
tlio salmon-llehorios, which 1 believe to bo the
bent in tho world. Igivoloss Importance, bow
over, to tho cod-banks than has been usually as
cribed to thorn; and I tell tho truth only in say
ing that, in regard to the value of tbo minerals
of the Territory, wo none of us ns yet know
enough to pans an authoritative opinion.
Tho condition of (bo people up thoro (except
ing those of tho Heat Islands) is one of groat
demoralization, aud I so atato It} but it. is duo
alono to tho tardiness of Government, since the

supervision of its interests thoro, breaking up
tho curso of whisky-making and smuggling, ole,,
etc. Tho nresont condition of affairs up thoro
is simply shsmofnl on tbo part of (he Govern
ment. and I so state it in my report, and oaunot
in any way whatever bo laid upuu tho commer
cial traders, who. where or when they wish to
correct evils, have no support or backing of law
to-day.
Mr. Dali is also credited with saying that tho
pooplo of Alaska aro merely “vassals” of those
traders or the Alaska Commercial Company.
Until 1 soo tho name of this gentleman append
ed to such a statement, I shall deny the fact;
for I know that he or no roan of common intelli
gence will make any such assertion, viewing tho
field as it now lios.
Then, again, with roforonco to mj stand in
regard to tho SoaMaland business, I would very
willingly allow tbo comment of your correspond'

cannot permit tbo name of my associate,'
Lieut. Maynard, U. 8. N. (who accompanied mo
Inst season, on an independent footing, for tho
samo work), to pass under such a slur. The ro-
Eort of ibis gentleman is noun to be published

roborates my work in all of the loading details.
The character of tills oflicer is of the highest,
and Ins ability cannot bo questioned rightly.
My report is niado up almost entirely of a

Evanston, 111., July 20.—Now that tho tide of

"WILVT IS MONEY?
I Difference Retwoon an Object and n
I Medium of CxrJiungu.
I Mr. Charier 11. Carroll, ot Doaton, replies fo
I Wendell I’hillips on tlio nntnro ami fmiotionß of
I money. liie statement in no clear aud irrefuta-
I bio that vo reproduce it:
To Hit Khlor of the Toulon filobt;
WcndolU’Julhpa accepts for truth 'the perni
cious error first promulgated an a do*nue of po
litical economy by Uio colobraM projector.
Jolm Lav. whoso purposes it ser/od, that money
»h not an object of exchange. but merely the nur
(Uttm of exchange. On thi« metaphysical ab
straction tho whole fabric ot fictitious currency
rests, and Mr. rhillipa is endeavoring to found
upon it a scheme of Government paper currency
unlimited in volume, oxeopt in (ho dcairo and
ability of individuals to make mortgaged and in
cumber thoniflolvos and tho nation with a need
leas load of debt.
Money is no attraction : it la a commodity,
tho simplest thing in tho world. It i B tho func
tion of a commodity to circulate as an object of
exchange, to ho bought and sold; and thm is
expressly the function of money. Money is the
most essential and conspicuous object of ox
chango in commerce tbo wide world over. No
body cares, as a question of commerce or science,
what may bo tho ultimate uso of a tiling which
everybody or anybody wonts as a commodity,
and is ready to pay for In value or service. As a
commodity, everybody wants money.
There is no special medium of exchange.
Every commodity haa the quality of a medium
of exchange; that is to say, every com
modity is capable of being a medium as woil
as an object of exchange. Tho owner of irou
•may find it convenient to exchange bis Iron,
pound for pound, for wool, as a medium to n
change for wheat, or any other desirable thing
without ovou naming tho money unit. Nor iu
this sort of business very exceptional; it is com
mon among farmers and country dealers iu re
mote places.
Tbo purpose of a medium of exchange Is per
fectly served by on evidence of debt, an ordinary
account currant, any sort of base metal la a token,
or oven by a counterfoil coin or nolo, at tho op
tion of tboeo who consent to tho employment of
ouch a medium; but tho purpoao of money can
pu y bo aorvod by that which makes full payment
lu itself, as an object of exchange, an absolute
equivalent of intrinsic value iu cost, demand, and
supply. “it Is the essence of money," says Mr.
Iluslasaon, “to possets intrinsic value." pur
chasing; power is not value unless it bo paying
power also. °
There is nothing In a bank or a Government
currency but tho principle of nn account current.
Wo liavo hut to debit tho banker tho Govorn
mont, aa tho case may bo, to the valuo loaned on
its obligation, and credit tbo aamo by tho valuo
received when tho obligation is disponed of. Does
any ono auppemo this complication of debt and
credit in money ? or that with its iHinda, mort
gages, indorsement*, and ramifications ot em
barrassment, and tho inevitable crises it etiien
dors, it is, to individuals or tho nation, tho equiv
llont of capital in gold and silver? Dues Won
[ doll riilllips think ao? Yet this complication,
I embarrassment, and poverty in the place of
i money, wo must have It if wo adopt his scheme
of currency, or continue tno mixed sys
tem wo have now; lor so far as wo sub
atituto an inferior currency for money, money*
will not maintain ila value, and os suou as it
fall# hero below its valuo In London, as indicat
ed by the par of to tho pound sterling,
monoy will not remain in the country, as every
motchaut knows.
As to (ho measure of valuo—another abstrac
tion of tho money question—every commodity
ami every aervico measures tbo value of that for
which it will exchange. Thoro Is no fixedness to
tho value of anything to servo as a common
measure of value. Tho comparison of mouey
with the measures of length, weight, and capa
city, which la ao commonly made bywrlloraon
the currency is impertinent. These measures
aro implumoule, fixed in their degree, which re
main in the hands of sellers 5 money is nothing
of tho sort 5 It la a thing that la oarUrcd and
measured by that which it measures, reciprocally
It passes from seller to buyer, and varies in
value more than many other commodities, es
pecially since it la subject to tho interference of
Government and of banking in the multiples
lion ot tkHlarg, of no ooat and no value, which
being Interchangeable with money, adulterate
and depreciate it effectually to the cost of tho
owner of monoy and ultimately of the country,
without any compensation whatever.
Double the dollars of currency in (his country,
tho capital being the same as before, with the
same activity ot circulation, and if tho cummuy
is real money. or interchangeable with it, money
T* .. . * u **l°® one-half and prices will bo
doubled, indubitably. If, having a me
tallto currency, we should split our
com Into halves and raise the denomination
the half-dollar to tho dollar, we should dotiblo
the dol are and prices, and reduce the value of
the dollar the tame, but not the value of money;
that would remain unaffected. Wo should still
pav 25.8 troy grains of standard gold for the aamo
value in anything else as before, but tho price
would be 92 instead of «1. For money la the ■
ponderable mass of gold and silver outside of
the arts, m circulation or iu hoards, whether
coined or uncoined. It is the common and uni
versal equivalent of value in exchange, and no -
decree of Government, or trickery with tho do- j
nomination, can alter this fact. ♦» Bleu lu their '
