and if in paying that debt such legisla-
tive means were to be passed through
congress as that was, it was very
clear to see what must be the result.
1t is the result of this day-of millions
of men out of employment and starry
ing.
I.'stead of issuing all this money
by the government, and taking the
profit of it, we established national
banks, two thousands Of them, and we
made an arrangement by which, if
they would pay these bonds, or had
bought them 1T thirty cents on the
dollar, and would pledge them TO us,
we would issue our guarantee notes
to them to ninety cents on one dollar,
for the purpose of circulation as mon
ey--for the purpose of being loaned as
money. A man bought his bond for
thirty cents on one dollar; he was to
have paid per cent. of gold interest
on it, because in 1859 we promised
that. Men took advantage of such
laws when they were enacted, joined
together and got 100000 of them and
put them in national bank. They
came to the treasury of the United
Ststes, and they took out 100000 in
bank notes, which circulated us mon
ey. leaving their bonds there as secur:
ity, on which they got six per cent,
and which cost them but thirty cents
on dollar. They got 100000 more,
and then loaned it to their neighbors
for per cent; and so much more
greedy were they that they persuad-
ed the laboring men of Massachusetts
to vote representative to general
court 70 pass law repeating the
usury act, so that they might get
more than six per cent. as bankii
institutions, and this was on the
ground that they would make money
cheaper.
The speaker urged all workingmen
to organize, and in the coming elec-
tions by their ballot secure a govern
ment that would bring true reform
and prosperity.
