usuRY AND INTEREST.
PEACE

Political economists Of all schools are
agreed in the definition Of the ractOrs
which absorb the earnings Of the produc-
tive labor az rent, usury and profit, The
alliance and kindred organizations seem
to have agreed upon the terms land,
money and transportation, but believe
a more comprehensive classification
would be rent, usury and distribution.
Iwish 10 lay before the readers Of THE
ADVOCATE few thoughts in reference
to the item usury and interest

against humanity. It invests an iuani-
mate tool Of commerce, with the rights,
powers and attributes Of productive la
bor, enables the holders or posscssors Of
the peoples money 20 live without labor
upon Che proceeds Of other mems toll.
Without however, entering upon an
extended argument NJ 10 the sinister
operations of the law of interest, will
simply say that the only manner in which
this incubus upon productive energy can
be neutralized is for the people or gov
ernment TO stand ready at all times TO
loan the peoples medium Of exchange or
money TO the individual upon approved
security at the actual cost Of the service.
To this end we must bend our energies
and earnest endeavor, and il we stand
united and firm this benincent reform
will surely be among the fruits Of nine
teenth century progressive civilization.

individual OF community pay a greater
per cent OF interest than the average per
cent Of increase Of material wealth, II 10

POLITICS IN THE ALLIANCE.

POLITICS IN THE ALLIANCE.
There Is a great hue and cry just now
about politics in the Farmers Alliance.
"Ef they are going into politics" say some,
81 am done with it, "Of course these
worshipers Of party are in the minority,
still they exist, and ! would like to ask
them what their definition Of politics IL.
always supposed that politics were
connected in some way with the govern
ment Of the nation, and that they existed
merely TO promote the best interests Of
the people OF that nation; but the latter
is false supposition, find, for we are
reminded now days that "the people
must support the government, not the
government the people" The alliance
was organized for the purpose Of further
ing the interests Of the people, but how
can that be accomplished II the members
are 80 afraid Of "politics" that they de-
sert at the first mention of the word.
Politics and the alliance are tone and
inseparable." The alliance can not much
longer exist without politics, neither can
politics (when taken in the true sense Of
the world be carried on without the aid
of the farmers and laborers' organiza-
tions. In fact the political world has
already become chaos, mere medley Of
Office seekers and spectators. II is
certainly time to throw away such bigoted
prejudice, and work and vote for what Is
right, irrespective of "party," and all
such nonsense The republicans say,
"Oh, II you will support our candidates
we will do whatever you ask, just so you
stick to the republican party" and the
democrats echo the words, only substi-
tuting democratic" for Republican" "
They realize that they are in the peoples
power before election, but after election
Is past, and they have matters in their
own hands, their promises are worth no
more than the soul Of the man that
uttered them. But the poor deluded men
forget all that before next election and
stand ready to be deluded again. "Tis
passing strange what fools these mortals

DIAMOND sMUGGLERs.
Real Stones Coated So That They Resem-

Real Stones Coated So That They Resem-
bled the Spurious.
We are informed that about six weeks
ago jewelry firm not far from Madison
Square, on Broadway, succeeded in get
ting number of diamonds past the GUS
toms officials in a peculiar way.
The diamonds numbered between so
and 80, and were worth in the vicinity
of $12, 900. as they were all large stones
On the invoice they were billed as imi-
tation French jewels of the new kind.
These diamonds are made of brilliant
pieces of glass highly polished and deftly
covered with thin coating of genuine
diamond shavings. These stones are SO
expertly made that it is almost impossi-
bic to detect the imitation even by the
use of strong microscope. The tell
tale feature of the imitation stone is a
rounghness around the circular edge 40
the widest part of the stone where the
two layers of the diamond coating Join.
This is really the only way that the
imitation can be detected. Emeralds,
pearls. and rubies are also made in this
way. 1t is necessary to use a micro
scope to detect this roughness about the
edge.
When the consignment of supposed
imitation diamonds arrived the assistant
appraiser assigned to gauge their value
examined each stone carefully with a
powerful microscope, and found that all
of them had the telltale roughness on
the edges He accordingly allowed them
