Important to Farmers.

The Farmers Alliance Insurance com
pany has added "hail department" to
Its business and 1t is now possible for the
farmers to insure growing crops against
damage by hail storms at very small
cost. In the hail department the board
have placed the maximum amount of
insurance per acre at $500 on all kinds
of crops against loss by hail. The price
to be paid per acre can In no case ex-
ceed 25 cents; one-fourth of the IS cents
or Ga cents per acre is paid at time Of
insurance, which is credited on the back
of the note; the remaining 1874 cents per
acre Is subject to assessment to pay
losses in case the 81 cents paid at time
Of insuring Is insufficient to pay losses
and expenses. The hail season on grow
ing lcrops ceases on September l.. Be-
tween that date and the 18th Of Septem-
Der all losses are and must be adjusted.
At that time the committe ascertalns the
total amount Of acres insured, total
amount of losses, and makes an assess
ment Of 80 many cents per acre to cover
the entire loss for the season; then the
secretary notifies each policy holder Of
the amount Of his assessment, stating on
the card the total number of acres in
sured and the total amount Of Losses.

WHY THE MORTGAGES.

From Jeffersonian.
Census Commissioner Porter recently
sent circular TO Douglas county far
mer asking the cause of his having to
mortgage his farm. The farmer sent
him the following reply, which We are
permitted to publish.
The same reasons will account for
most of the Kansas farm mortgages:
LAWRENCE, Kans., April Is, 1891.
Robert p, Porter, Supt. of Census:
DEAR SR-My mortgage, concerning
which you inquire, was incurred because Of
a awicked contraction of the currency, where
by the market value of eastern property
worth 5000, upon which the purchase
money for this was based was reduced to
$1,000. Further, said contraction reduced
millions of paying consumers into non-pay-
ing consumers, thus destroying the market
for industrial products.
Added to this the iniquitous class legisla-
tion, which needlessly doubled the cost Of
the war, exempted the rich from taxation
and doubled il upon the poor; that gave
empires Of land TO corporations already
wealthy and cast the poor into the street;
that conceived and norished into life the
Unsuitable combine and trust.
These villainous acts with others Of like
kind constitute the sole reason for the ex-
istence Of said mortgage"

stand amazed at che series OF enact
ments that could 80 truly be char
acterized as extreme class legislatlonY
And of the unaccOmplished legislation,
how appalling might this appear
were but the veil lifted to develop all of
the schemes attempted by the armed
hosts of protectionl Here is sample Of
the matter as promulgated by the Amer
lean bankers in 1876, through their Sec
retary, in this confidential circular:
Withhold patronage or favors from all
applicants who are not willing to oppose the
greenback issue of government money.
Let the government issue the coin and the
banks issue the paper money of the coun-
try, for then we can better protect each
other. To repeal the law creating national
banks, or to restore TO circulation the gov
ernment issue of money, will be to provide
the people with money, and will therefore
affect your individual profit as banker and
lender. See your member of Congress at
once and engage him to support our inter-
est, that we may control legislation.
| Most fitly did Representative Whit
neY, of Michigan, say:
The national bankers, their agents and
attorneys, want to mOnopolize the preroga-
tive of the people, simply because in their
control of the volume of money lies their
power TO affect loan. The man who dares
to advocate upon this floor, either by his
voice or vote, the withdrawal Of one dollar
of the treasury notes.-the peoples money
will be known as the enemy of the peoples
most sacred right under the constitution.
It ought never to have been delegated to
corporation, and corporation or body of
men who ask it are wanting in patriotism
and wisdom.
The Capital, in it's mission to con-
tinue the political organization to which
It seems most inordinately attached, will
inevitably stand by Its avowed Hamil-
tonian theory of government, and hence
it must needs deride with all its might
the 2 per cent. government loan to farm
ers, for 1t undoubtedly does not believe
that the more positively the success Of
the tillers of thu soil is assured, the more
certain Is the general prosperity of So
ciety assured. As it Is virtually automatic
that the effort of the farmer 10 the real
basis which underlies all successful re-
suits; SO, by parity Of reasoning, the soil
which he tills is an underlying basis of all
other values. Therefore 1t might justly
be the base of the currency of the gov
ernment of the United States of Amer
lea for the exchange of all values, and
therefore the security behind all mort
cages upon realty, upon which all mon
etary transactions of civilized nations
may most safely rest.

great victory for the Monarch scale TO

We think that our Postmaster will

comes.
To the Companion belongs the honor
ofbeing the first weekly paper published
for young people in the United States,
and, as far as knownin the world. Near
ly a generation ago it could justly claim
the largest circulation OF any weekly
paper.
1t is no wonder that the most eminent
writer's, both in Europe and America,
wish to write for it's columns. An arti-
Gle, published in the Companion, is read
by nearly two and a half millions OF
people, and it's power for good cannot be
easily estimated. 1t has often been
