his farm as a security; and as Congress
has gone still further and legislated
out of existence our State banks ths'
formerly afforded this aid to the
farmer, some plan should be devise
by which the overs of land a species
of properly of all the most stable III
value, in~destrucJable in It's nature, i'm
movable; the very mud sill of all other
properties, could make use OF his
property as q basis of credit.
Such scheme must look to govern
ment aid, either National or State,
rather than t the banks.
1t is not q proper function of a bank
to lend money on land Such loans
of necessity must be for a long time.
Banks cannot make loans on such
security or for such lengths of time.
They must have their loans in such
shape as to be readily convertible into
money s~s~necessity demands. The
function of a bank is to act as the
custodian of moneys; to provide a
circulation medium money; to faciii-
ta.e exchange and to aid business by
granting loans on short time on com
mercial paper: but not to lend money
on long time, or on real estate.
Hence the relief of that class of our
population who possess only land,
must come direct from the Govern
ment either National or State.
As some deny the power of the
General Government to lend money to
the people-though it is done by every
Congress that grants a subsidy to a
steamship line or bounty to 4 sugar
planter-thers can be no such a thing,
provided it's own constitution does not
prohibit this.
Ii such be the case, it Is a matter
entirely with the people of the State
whether they will not change their
State Constitution to enable them to
do it. 1t will, / think, be conceded
that the values of our farming lands
are below par. l can think of no plan
that will tend more to bring them up
to their normal value, than some such
scheme as Is outlined above; and is it
not time that a species of property,
which for twenty eight years has been
discredited in the eyes of the com
mercial world by the direct act of the
General Government, should be re
nabilitated by some Governmental
action either National or State2 l,
for one think it is VIM. Fl. BurgWsn,

Sir Philip Miller, the great English
h~orticulturist, writing in l74O, says: Thu
best method to have Cabbages good is to
procure fresh seed rom abroad every
year, for it is apt to degenerate in Eng
lsud in a few years" The above is a
simple illustration of the fact that the best
seeds will rapidly degenerate under un
favorable conditions. The wise will take
heed, therefore, and buy theiI seeds of
d. M. Ferry & Co., Detroit, Michigan,
whose worldwide reputation as the best
and most reliable. as we'll as the most
er'emsive seed growers and dealers, is due
to the fact that they take advantage of
every circumstance of climate, soil, meth
DDS of culture, selection of seed-plants,
etc. t procure the best possible seeds
and keep them up to that high standard.

etiEed ? and why do the great money
cen res of the country 90 feterminedly
resist rs re- nonetiz 3tion ? We answer
these questions as follows:
Silver was demonetizNd to increase
the purchasing power of gold, and so,
enormously benefit the holders OF that
metal An additional reason for the
r~ascally demonstration Of silver was
to increase the value of all the claims
which the money lords held agalnsf
the government A series of acts
went through Congress under the
title of "scts to strengthen the public
credit" and these acts contaminated
the infamous outrage against the PEG.
pie known SIS the characterization OF
silver. If those acts had been called
acts to strength the creditors OF the
government. the meaning of them
would have been only more obvious,
but not different from the meaning
which inheres in the acts as they now
stand npen the statute books OF the
Republic. For what is the strength
ening of the public credit of the
country but the enhancement of the
value Of it's securities?
The men 10 the great wealth centres
of the country resist the remonetizs
ton of silver because it is to their in
terests to have the purchasing power
of the money which they own and
control as great as possible, These
are the plain simple facts which ex
plain the crusade-ss ungodly a cru
sade as was ever carried on upon
earth-against silver. Many of our
reade 8 may not know that the act
robbing silver of IT'S honor as money
was passed through Congress clsndes
timely Blu; it is q fact nevertheless.
The country did not know that silver
had 0een despoiled of it's honor and
usefulness as money until months after
the Infamous knaves in and around
Congress had consummated their vii
lainy.
The Farmers Alliance is insisting
upon the reconciliation of silver is
only insisting that a wrong conceived
in sin and DO n in iniquity-a wrong
against the people aud against the
prosperity of the people-shall be IN.
done as speedily as possible. This is
our contention. And we mean to
succeed in it.

TO COUNTY AND SUB-ALLI.
ANCES.

1 now call upon all County and Sub
Alliances to send in their o ders for N. Q.
F. A. Official Guano early. There are
many reasons why it should be done.
If your orders are placed early, the goods
can be placed at your depots, and you
can have it out at your WI convenience
an, the transportation companies will
not be so crowded when the rush for
guano is on. 1t viii cost you no more as
interest does not begin till April LIST. Send
in the company's printed notes, and if you
wish to pay cash at any time you can
take up your notes and stoo interest.
We expect a very large trade in guano
this year and will be able to furnish all
who wish it if orders will be sent in good
time. But if all wait till about the time
to commence using it, the transportation
companies cannot move it as fast as it is
wanted. At next county meetin-s. on
the second Friday il January, 1t would
De we'll to have the matter discussed and
estimate of amount wanted and forward
to the company. Although the price cf
materials are higher, we pay the same
for the goods and have It guaranteed to
be fully up to what it was last season.
Please bring this matter before each
Sub-Alliance.
