The PoWrr OF Gold.

It is the gold power that is fighting
the free coinage of silver. Why? For
the same reason that any other mon
arch would fight rival that was TO be
crowned in the same country TO divide
powers and honors with him. Gold is
now absolute monarch. and rules with
unfeellnE tyranny; and the dominant
parties and politicians are determined
that his rule shall not be disturbed
And. as in the case with most tyrants,
the people are less indebted to gold
than to any other metal or commodity.
Senator John j. Ingalls,, in a speech
made in the United States Senate. Feb
ruary / 5. ISIS. drew the following
very truthful picture OF gold:
No people in a great emergency
ever found faithful ally in gold 1t
is the most cowardly and treacherous
of all metals 1t makes no treaty il
does not break. 1t has no friend il
does not sooner or later betray. Arm
les and navies are not maintained by
gold. In time OF panic and calamity.
shipwreck and disaster. it becomes the
agent and minister of ruin No ma
ton ever fought a great war by the
aid of gold. On the contrary, in the
crisis of the greatest peril it becomes
an enemy more potent than the foe in
the field; but when the battle is won
and peace has been secured, gold
reappears ana claims the fruits
OF victory. In our own civil
war it is doubtful If the gold Of New
York and London did not work Us
greater INJURY than the powder and
lead and iron OF the rebels. 1t was tho
most inyincib.e enemy of the public
credit Gold paid no soldier or sailor
1t refused the national obligations. II
was worth most when our fortunes
were the lowest. Every defeat gave
It increased value 1t was in open al
lance with our enemies the world
over. and all its energies were yoked
for our destruction. But as usual.
when danger has been averted and the
victory secured, gold swaggers TO the
front and asserts the supremacy
Is it not little strange that an in
telligeut people like the people of the
United States with their iuexhhusti-
BILE resources and varied industries
will cling to the cast-on garments of
monarchy, and permit this metal to
measure their everything OF value and
rule them with n tyrant's sway? That
It 50 rules them the gold men them
selves do not deny--Farlners' Home

Govcrnment Loan.

Frequently the question Is asked
How will loans from the governments
assist tho mechanic or day lab0rer?"
Let US investigate this matter a little
ard soc To-day in this country one
of the greatest evils that common la
borers and mechanics are REAP. ng from
the present financial strinQency is the
lack of employment To-day thou
sands Of willing hands can find nothing
TO do. and their families are suffering
for the want of even the simple ueces-
stiles of life Now let us see a little
further. A direct loan TO those who
could give imperishable security would
relieve this financial stringeucy by
greatly augmentng the amount of the
circulating medium. and reducing the
amount of interest The trouble Is
that the rate of interest is so high that
money is withheld from needed inn
provement ana extensive repairs says
the Workman and Farmer Those
farmers who own farms are compelled
TO hold their expenses down TO
the lowest possible ebb. thus
employing the laboring man only
when it is impossible TO dis
pense with his services in the crop
season. II the amount of money
could be increased by direct loan At
Z low rate of interest the farmer
would feel that he could pay that
small rate OF interest and expeud the
money on the improvement 81 his
farm. Those thickets that have for
years been neglected will be cleared up
and put under cultivation. thus adding
to the productiveness of the country;
those low swags in the fields that have
for many seasons been worse than USE
less Will be undetermined and made TO
be the most productive part OF the
farm; the old barn viii be repaired and
a better result from the winter feeding
will be attained. the house will DO
worked over and additional con-
veniences and ornaments added. This
will cause a general awakening in the
industrial pursuits. The day lnbOrer
will be in demand every day in the
year. and the skillet mechanic viii
find much additional work 10 do ard

tent governs the prices. wHges would

Thus the country would Be- greatly i'm
