The Forrest City times., 1890-06-07


 is moro in detail. We advise every farmer in St. Francis county. regard less of party ties, to give Carlisie's let ter a careful perusal and then send five cents to Edmond Hudson, Wash ington, D. C.. for the National Demo- crat, of May l7th, 1890, and read Mills letter also.
 We do not believe so wild scheme will ever become law, but it is clear that if by any means it can be ingrati- atcd with the masses, and through their demands it should happen to pass the ruin of the country would be the result, and the farmer would suffer most of all. The practice of lending money, secured by mortgage on farm real estate, has about spent itself, and it's results have brought about an agri- cultural depression all over the coun- try, of a weight and magnitude, that justly gives alarm. From ocean to ocean. and from the lakes Co the Great Gulf. dl satisfaction is clearly depicted on the brow of the country, and espe- cally the agricultural brow.
 The same power that produces this depression and dissatisfaction, by lend ing the farmer money on real estate, sees 1t can no longer garble up lands by that process, so It remains in the back ground, under the rose, itself and is making agents in every farm and labor organization, and instructihe hem to push it's pet schemes through which are ostensibly for the good of the farmer, but really the intention is to open avenues that will leave an easy passage for the farmers land and it's products to this powers own owner. ship.
 The fcderaflaw creating the national banks, wisely provided that they should not lend money on real estate security nor for longer time than three months on ehattel security But the northeast ern Shylocks circumvented this law by lending money direct to the farmer, at low interest, for five to ten years time This scheme began some twelve or fif- teen years ago, and the debts are falling due, the borrowers arc unable to meet them, and the shriek of the day IS hard times As these sorrows accu. mulate, as this grief intensiiles, the Alliance becomes holder in iis demands and cry louder for |. redress of griev- anees.
 In their mad rush, here and there, Tor means of relief, the Slslocks see their opportunity, and employ local dis guised agents who enter the society. '' and with great professions of fraternity the iasidious, heartless tools suggest many schemes of relief.
 The Shylocks sit back in their palatial parlors, and by pulling the wires of corruption electrofy the malevoleut passions of such men as L. |. Feather ston, who ineulcates, under tie nstruc- tons from the money lenders, his brothers with the idea that class legislation has caused the financial dis. tress, and 1t is but right for the govern ment to come to the country k relief, with two per cent. loan, dr sub treasury scheme.
 Any of these plans, if carried out in the name of relief for the farmer would prove ten-fold worse for the country than the great relief offered them twelve years ago by lending money on land security. These plans recently introduced in congress. are d continuation of the money lemd- ing plans originated just after the civil war with the sole aim and object of the ownership of land from the many to the few.
 The Republican party is responsible for tine partial success of tho money lenders, and they look to that party, in The main, for a continuance of the con ,iitions which will enable them to per petuate their plans and prosecute them to linal, complete success. If the Republican party remain in power, the leutlors of money on above plan will accomplish their aims, and the owners of rural homes will become teneuts, more absolute and more abject than those of feudal times.
 The policy of these shyloeks is to lnstill in the minds and diffuse am ,ng the masses the doctrine of govern paternalism, SD that the people will appeal to the government for aid at every short crop, or other misfor- tune, however, insignificant. They are the people to lean on the government, instead of depending upon Iheif own strong arm for success. They are placing dependence in the stead ot that bold, patriotic independence which has so long been the prop and main- stay Of the country.
 The Democratic party has combatted this idea of paternalism since it's birth. The Democracy of to-day k combating It, and will never cease doing so. The Democratic party is the hope of free iom in this republic, and tho moneyed realize this fact, and are moving the earth to destroy the party.
 surely our agricultural friends will not long advocate such suicidal policy.
