with the plain working people the masses.
His recent letter gives another proof shat
he is natural leader Of men--a brave man
and not a coward. His personal prospects
weigh not against the true welfare Of the
tOilers who once made him president In
addition to these, no abler, purer or grander
Democrat ever managed the finances Of
this nation than Mr.. Manning; no abler,
purer, or grander Republican ever did so
than Mr.. Window. These men were friends
of the masses, if ever the masses had friends.
Both had to investigate the silver question,
that they might learn what was best and act

the people. Political opponents as they

they should agree upon this question must
surely give every farmer, mechanic and
workingman in the United States grave
reason for believing that they, and not tho
advocates of silver, are his wisest Coun-
sellors,
Need it require much of the gift of
prophecy to determine the fact that
royal magnates Of finance, both In the
old and new world, are bent upon ac-
complishing much the same result-as
far as persistent superhuman exertlons
may avail-that "the Hazard circular"
accomplished in the darksome days of
the civil war, when the insurgents and
the money kings had their combined
grasp upon the throat of the American
nation? Forewarned is forearmed; and
it behooves all who are interested In the
majesty Of law, the sweetness Of liberty,
the integrity Of order, the justice Of
righteousness and in union for the
sake of preserving what the blood Of
patriots and the wisdom of statesmen
have bequeathed our people, to grapple
at once with the conspiracy of the do
mestic and foreign plutocrats enlisted
under the banner Of the alien Carnegie.

desire to formulate a few funda-
mental propositions upon finance, in
clear, terse terms, so that they may be
easily understood and aaslmllated. AS
follows:
Provided the volume of money In circu-
lation per capita remains the same and
Is kept at all times at any certain figure,
a reduction In the legal current rate of
interest upon money Is equivalent to an
increase In the value of all income pro-
ducing property, except evidences Of in
debtedness and interest bearing obliga-
tions. The value Of this class OF income
producing property being expressed and
limited by numeral dollars or units Of
account upon which interest Is reconed,
reduction In interest rates will de-
crease instead of increasing their value.
The reason of this, is because income
producing property is worth that amount
Of money upon which it will pay the
legal, current rate Of interest. A farm
that is worth $4,000 with interest at
per cent, Immediately becomes worth
$1,000 If interest Is reduced to 2 per
cent.
A contraction In the per capita volume
Of currency, without a corresponding re-
duction in the rate Of interest, reduces
the exchangeable value or selling price
of all forms Of wealth, except evidences
of Indebtedness, interest bearing securi-
ties and income producing properties,
theincome of which is payable In money.
While this injuries or damages all own
erS of property and managers Of pro-
ductive industries, who are out Of debt,
1t works double hardship upon those
who are in debt, because il takes more
property or wealth Of all kinds TO pay
not only the principal, but the interest
upon the debt. Thus the absorption OF
the peoples wealth by the owners OF
evidences of indebtedness, interest bear
ing securities and such properties as
railroads, ETC., etc, increases in rspidity

Of finance. Gold and silver must be De-
throned, demonetized and relegated TO
their proper position as commodities.
Under the beneHcent operation Of the
peoples banking system any person who
has tract Of land, horse, q stock of
merchandise or bar Of gold, o herd Cf
cattle, bin Of wheat, bale Of cotton OK
silver brick, win be able TO 60 70 the
nearest sub-treasury and get his individ
ual holding of the national wealth coined
into representative paper money, thus se-
curing the people, as it were, for the en-
dorsement of his note. Money is joint
note, signed by all the people.
In February, 1892, the Cincinnati plat
form should be amended 30 as to read,
ITO be loaned to the people at rate Of
interest not TO exceed per cent, upon
any security now considered good by the
banks under the present system" A
personal note, signed by three indlvid-
uals having a certain amount of property
not subject TO execution, 10 good security
to the present banks. Why not equally
as good to the peoples bank. Elevator
and warehouse grain receipts are AL se-
curity to the money shark. What's the
matter with the sub-treasury plans Let
US nationalize the banking system In the
interest Of the people.

Mr.. Mckinley at the recent Ohio state

New York Times, the substance Of re-
marks made by VIM. II. Lee, of Virginia,
as follows:
Subordinate everything to the
party.
Second-We must not consider any
thing in which the party is divided till
after 1892.
Thlrd-CongresS should prevent per-
niclouS Legislation, but attempt nothing
more In the Fifty-second Congress.
This probably foreshadows the policy
Of the party, and a more monstrous,
wicked policy could not be conceived.

poses until after it has secured further
promotion. Let the people take warn

The apparent prosperity OF the people,
az evinced by deposits, under our pres
ent banking system, 10 In reality, an
evidence of the very reverse of pros
perity. Increased deposits call for in
creased bank reserves, which decreases
the volume Of money in active circu-
latlon and increases its purchasing
power-i. 9. lowers the price Of labor and
its products. Even very considerable
reduction in rates OF interest viii not
avail to counteract the evil effects Of
currency contraction, because the In.
creased value Of money more than effects
the reduction in interest.
Mark the potency of these sinister
facts In connection with our present
system of private individual and corpor-
ate banking, under which the banks alb
solutely control both the volumne Of cur
rency and the rates Of interest. The
various banks and loan and trust COM
panles have ON deposit with them and
keep loaned out about four billions Of
dollars Of credit money; |. g. each dollar
In circulation iS loaned to from four to
seven different persons. The interest
the banks pay for these deposits will not
average 3 per cent They loan them out
at anywhere from s to "a per cent. This
means an absorption by these leeChes Of
society, of anywhere from s95O,OOO,0OO to
$1,OOO,OOO,OOO Of the products of labor,
each year.
What is the remedy?
First-Abolish entirely this perniclous
system of private banking and establish
a system, not Of paternallsm, but Of fra
ternslism, by putting into operation 3
peoples banking system, Of, by and for
the (whole) people. Establish safe de-
poslt and loan and discount bank Sub
treasury in all cities and towns where
banking facilities are demanded, and let
every bank official and employe be a SER
want Of the people-a government" en-
ploye. Let these banks pay per cent.
for time deposits and loan money at 2
per cent. Simply let the people as an
organized community loan to themselves
as individuals, their own credit, at the
cost of performing the service.
Second-Exslt the Alliance principle
of "equal rights for all, special privileges
to none, and add to It in italics, not even
to the holders of gold Gnd silver bullion.
Money In lts ideal perfection is purely
creation of law. Money is, or should be,
intrinSically, utterly valueless. The fc-
ton that money should and must possess
commodity value has done as much as
or more than any erroneous superstition
to enslave mankind. Money possesses,
or should possess, representative value
only. All value attaching to money be-
