Mr.. Berry of California made pow

against the Bill lechartcring the Ma
tional Banks, some Of which will soon
expire by Limitation He showed
clearly that the whole system is one OF
organized robbery Of the poor for the
benefit OF the rich. Under the present
arrangement, tho Government pays
senl-annua interest to the banks on
the bonds depns ted, while the people
pay ten per cent. interest to the same
banks ON their circulation based on
the same bonds; and the bonds are un-
lax bic for either Federal State or
other purpose This arrangement
gives capital too great All advantage
over poverty and tabor. And yet the

On rice that is taxed 100 per cent. On

taxed SO per cent. Is it a fact that
the Iaboring poor, the producers of the

If there are any such, why such are

up from soap suds, her apron wet and
her temper red hot, the agent smiled
and said:
