Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1876-10-06

Hon. E. A. Storrs, of Chicago, got
right to the key note of the financial
situation in the following extract
from speech in that city recently.
He said:
II have visited most of the banks in
Chicago, and found them all with more
money on hand than they could make use
Of; they said they were willing and able
to lend any amount at low rates; the only
difficulty seemed to be in the lack of col
laterals. Now, l propose that ace shall
initiate the collaterals."
There is the whole question ex-
pressed in automatic form. The
trouble is not with the scarcity of
money, but in the absence of collat-
erals. That is the case in the west
and especially in this county. The
reason our farmers are feeling the
pinching of the times Is not because
there is no money, but because there
is very little to sell for money. For
this the elements and natural causes
are responsible, and for this, initiation
to any conceivable extent would be
no panacea. Diluting the currency
would be simply lessening its pur-
chasing power, rendering it a more
uncertain element in business, and
comforting no corresponding benefit
upon the farmer or laboring man.

RIGHT
Colorado Republican.

Little sister Colorado voted for
State officers, members of Congress
and members of the Legislature last
Tuesday, the result being sweep
ing victory for the Republicans
They electthelr entire State ticket and
member of Congress by 1000 ma
jority and they have two thirds of
the Legislature, insuring the election
of two Republican U. S. Senators
and giving the electoral vote of the
state to Hayes and Wheeler, the
electors being elected by voteo the
Legislature. At the last general
election in the territory, the majority
for the Democratic candidate for
Delegate to Congress was 2,l63 on a
vote of 10000.
Town elections were held in Con
necticut on the same day, and the re-
turns show unexpected and crafty
ing Republican gains in almost ev-
cry locality. Some towns heretofore
strongly Democratic have this year
given Republican majo1ties and the
result in general is very cheering
Although Connecticut has been here.
