To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE;
I just arrived here this morning from
Michigan. There Is q great Upheaval
among the old parties there, and that
state can be counted sure for the Peoples
party next year. A vote has just been
taken of the Grange, Farmers Alliance,
Knights OF Labor, Citizens Alliance In
dustrial League, and Industrial Party
through their organizations, and they
voted 81 per cent. for the Peoples party.
Here In Tifin, Governor Humphrey
and Lew Hanback,, (who has grown 70
major general here) have been extensively
advertised for weeks 10 speak at 2 y. na.
to-day, and the Republicans are 30 few
that drum corps and brass band could
only draw fifty people into the opera
house this afternoon, and 10 per cent. Of
those were Of the Peoples party. OF
course they adjourned until 8 p. nc. (ss
favor to the request Of the business men)
and tonight they could only got thirty
five into the hall and no meeting tonight,
although this is city Of 10000, and the
sidewalks are crowded with people NOV

claimed to be $97,OOO,OOOOOO. Interest
at 5 per cent would make an annual tax
Of 81, ,350 100000, which would run this
government for three years. All this
vast amount Is paid by individuals for
the use of the medium Of exchange, for
mind you no one can borrow money un-
less he has some property or labor to ex-
change. The only question ls this; is 1t
better or safer for the common good that
private parties who have COrnered that
medium of exchange and steadily oppose
an addition, shall furnish 1t to their less
fortunate brethren at an exorbltant rate
Of tax, or shall the government step In
and coin their property for them and
claim small tax for itS Remember in
either case the property Is already exist
Ing, tangible and useful. All 1t needs ID
something TO facilitate exchange. Let ua
drop the term Of loRning money upon
land and it's products when discussing
the question further and ask for coming
them like bonds, gold and silver now is,
on the certificate plan. 1t may be less
Objectionable to constitutional lawyers,
for you know Congress shall have power
to coin money. 1t can't be class legisla-
ton in the sense the national bank act
was, for with proper restrictions large
majority would be able to have part Of
their property coined. 1t would not
leglslate out Of existence nor into exist
ence one dollars worth Of property exist
ing now. It would create money plsnti-
fully, having a safer and more useful, q
deeper and diversified and equitably dis
tributed basis for circulating medium
than at present. Land or sub-tressury
money would not be boarded nor hauled
out of the country like gold is in the
time OF danger. The security Is more
stable, for land will never decrease In
value as long as population increases, nor
will Its supply fuctuate like the supply
of precious metals. What would hinder
q domestic insurrection or foreign
enemies from capturing our gold reserve?
Could our land basis be captured as easyH
Does Colonel Harris and others that
think like him, suppose that II somebody
should take that gold and bonds or that
just because q few hogs in human form
that have cornered most Of the gold
existing, the whole people would suffer
and starve rather than find a substitute
for gold? A substitute equal in value
we have certainly in land and it's inn
perishable products. The land loan will
benefit the holders Of homes that are
mortgaged, the sub-treasuryi the poor
renters more than anything ever pro-
posed. "The greatest good TO the great

THE sUB-TREAsURY PLAN.
To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE.

To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE.
have carefully followed the discus
sions going on in the Kansas Farmer
between Colonel Harris and others In
relation to the sub-treasury plan, and l
would like hand in the discussion.
Brothers Harris and Shinn seemed to
misconstrue the true purposes for ad-
vancing sub-treasury and land loan PLANS
namely, to furnish more extended, d.
versifed and generally distributed basis
for an increase In our currency. 1t is
now generally conceded that We need an
increase in our circulating medium of
exchange; the only really existing differ
ence Of opinion is as to the basis to be
used, and the mode Of emitting It. Now,
the government can't give money away,
the bonds are not all due yet, and we
don't want extravagant appropriations.
Buying railroads would give money to
capitalists; building new ones would
only be spending money uselessly, for we
have enough roads now. Brethren, how
do you propose to get money into circula-
tion? Free coinage OF silver will not
bring sufficient relief, for if every ounce
of our annual United States output was
coined It would increase currency not
over 81 per capita annually, and at that
rate most of us would be dead and gone
before that happy standard Of 1866 is
again reached, when, according to SeCre-
tary McCulloch'S report, the people were
practically free from debt. Who would
like to wait that long for recurrence Of
those prosperous times? No, brethren.
As long as non-producing private capi-
tai can tax productive labor through in
terest, as long as the creature can tax It's
creator, 80 to speak, you need not hope
for change. The adoption Of land loan
and sub-treasury plans Is the only vlsl-
BILE, effective way OF stopping private
taxation and directing 1t to its proper
and only legitimate channel, namely, the
general government. 1t alone should
have power TO tax US. Now as to this
talk about fat money or class legislation.
We now employ four different kinds of
paper notes as money, viz, gold and
silver certificates, bank and legal tender
notes. The first two are based upon
metal bullion, the bank notes upon bonds
or promises to pay, on faith and hope, so
to speak, that the government viii be
able to tax enough gold from the people
TO pay those promises when due, and
the legal tenders are based only upon the
general credit of the'government. Now
would notes based upon real estate or i'm
perishable necessities Of life be any more
fiat money than bank notes or legal ten
ders, or even than gold and silver certif-
Gates? Would 50 worth of land be q
more fat basis than 81 worth Of gold or
The advocate., 1891-09-23

silver bullionY We all understand or
rather believe that money should have
some sort of property basis to make 1t
good, but why gold, silver or bonds are n
good and safe basis, while land and It's
lmperlshable products are not, can't
understand. All life depends upon land
and its products; no government could
exist without them. 10 q non-essentiRl
luxury like gold better basis for money
than the very foundation Of human ex-
istence? There ia no more fat about 1t
than about gold or silver money. II the
government does not make money l
should like to ask Colonel Harris who
does? If the government stamp does
not make them money what is the use of
putting 1t on? Why not pass them by
weight. Gold and silver before coined
are Simple commodities. The govern
ment simply coins them for the owners,
It does not assume ownership Of them.
Now il 1t can lawfully coin the property
Of few men holding gold and silver,
why can 1t not coin land and It's products
upon the certificate plan? Which 10 the
worst class legiSlation-tO give couple
Of non-essential luxuries, Cornered by a
few greedy comOrants, the privilege of
being coined, or to extend that privilege
to the very foundation Of life? Gold
and silver held In bars are as much
personal property as land or its products,
yet deed of trust or warehouse brings
them as much under control Of the gen
eral government as gold and silver are
now. Let Colonel Harris note the dis
tinctlon.
While the government makes the
money, gold and silver or certificates and
bank notes, It does 1t for private citizens.
Itcoins existing property. Nowiwouldit It be
asked under sub-treasury or Land loan bill
to coin anything not existing property? ?
It would be simply extending the privl-
lege Of coinage to land and its products
with the difference that we are willing
to pay tax Of l or 2 per cent. for that
privilege, but we may Of course ask that
gold and silver or bonds be compelled TO
pay q like tax for they are no better.
But the main point iS to emancipate US
from the rule Of private capital. Capital
without the aid OF labor produces moth
ing. Pile the gold of the world in a pile
and see how much it will produce. On
the other hand figure up the immense
tax or interest paid now by labor to capi-
tai and for what? Tell me brethren, " hat
does capital do or produce 70 entitle 1t to
such taxi Is it greater than our govern
mentG Or do we pay homage and taxes

Boguta is a city OF about 100000 inhabitants,
and upon the same elevated plain are several
quite large towns. There are no manufactures
OF any account in any part OF the Republic.
10 few places a small amount Of coarse goods
for the most common clothing and a few manu-
factories Of the cheapest grades OF soaps const-
tute the major portion Of the manufacturing
industry Of the country,
IL will be seen, therefore. that nearly every
thing which goes toward the support and main
tenance Of the people generally have 10 be inn

only "bridle-paths" so to speak IL follows that
away from the coast and the naVigable rivers
everything must be transported on pack mules
or pack oxen; consequently large and heavy
articles cannot be transported, or IL at all at
enormous expense and great loss Of time.
Everything is therefore very costly' and as

profit, makes the
