The Michigan Grange has received
another compliment on its good sense.
The New York Weekly Witness quotes
the action Of the Grange on the loaning
of money to farmers by the Govern
ment, at per cent, and thus COM
ments thereon:
"Well done, Michigan! We have re-
peatedly expressed the conviction that
the farmers would come out all right
as soon ss they had had time 10 digest
the proposition for a supply OF cheap
money, by which so many of them have
been carried away, and We take leave
to assume that the Michigan Grangers
have expressed the views of a very
large proportion of the farmers of the
Western States IN the above resolution.
We have nowhere seen so concise and
convincing 4 statement OF the argu-
ment against this new scheme as IS
presented by this association of farmers,
and We trust that any of our farmer
friends who have been fascinated by
the idea OF getting money made TO
order, in quantities, and on terms to
smt the needs of the applicants, will
study the above resolution with care.
zone other sentence should, how
ever, be added to this resolution, to
point out that IN addition TO these evil
effects of the proposed policy the new
currency would itself soon become a
nuisance. An immense issue of Gov
eminent notes, put IN circulation IN
the manner prescribed by the Farmers
Alliance, and not backed up by suf-
ficent redemption fund of coin or
bullion, would inevitably depreciate in
value so rapidly that all business trans
actions would be on a very unsstisfac-
tory basis. Nobody would know what
the money which ne was accepting in
exchange for the produce of his labor
would be worth a week after the time
he received It, and, therefore, no one
could make any intelligent calculations
or plans for the future"

papers printed in The Commercial last fall,
purporting to be contract for stock in the
ballot-box company, the names being writ
ten from autographs on slips of paper which
he provided, by Mr.. Millward, of Cincinnati,
in the office of Solicitor Murray, of the Hall
& Wood Ballot-Box company. Wood told
Milward that he wanted the paper to trade
for what is called the George Top" letter,

Another Version of the Matter
He said that "Jim" Foraker. the governor
brother, first suggested that he (Wood's)
could probably set the smoke inspectorship,
and spoke of number of kilograms which
passed between him and the governor, none
of which he now possessed. He said that
Governor Foraker suggested 70 him that he
could do little "hustling' for him. The
hustling that Wood said the governor
wanted was the procurement of document
drawn up in Ben Butterworth's office, which
the governor wanted to use against Butter

Butterworth was disreputable. Woods whole
testimony on this branch was directed to
prove that Governor Foraker had wanted
the paper to get even with enemies in his
own party and that he did not seem to care
how he did it. When asked, however, if
Foraker had knowingly entered into a con-
Spiracy, witness said he had not. Governor
Foraker said he did not desire to question
witness and the committee adjourned
