tutional right TO regulate the value OIL
pretty generally that the circulating me.
dunn ofthe country is too small for the
volume Of business and the population OF
the country; but at this point radical diff
ference in the remedy between the two
classes arises. The pluiocratic class desires
to maintain their present control of the
money Of the country and regulate both its
issue and value. They insist that the GOV
eminent shall be confined to coming gold,
and issuing just SO much paper as they de-
mAnd 10 pass through their national banks
10 the people, the value TO be left entirely
in the hands Of this highly favored class TO
regulate Opposed to this plutOcratic
class are 100000 OF the laboring and
producing class organized in various asso-
Citations, among whom are 100000 farm
ers, moving steadily on converting lines
that debouch on one wide plain Of com
munity Of interests. They demand that the
government shall assume its rightful pre-
rogatiye of controlling the money of the
country as the Constitution commands, and
regulating its value. There is but one way
this can be done, which is ky issuing it
directly to the people who use it in produc-
tive industry. in place of passing it through
the hands Of class who collect an enormous
usury from all who must nse money.
The plutocratic class have invented a
kind Of money which they propose to sub
stilute in place of all other money and which
they have, in the last decade, brought into
almost universal use to the exclusion Of oil
other except very small amount with
which to effect change and settle small bills.
This particular kind of money the plutoc-
racy delight in is called Credit" and 95
per cent Of the business Of the country is
transacted with this species Of money. The
banking class have entire control Of this
credit money and "regulate'' iis value at
their pleasure. Not one dollar Of this i'm
aginary money can be used in the remotest
parts Of the country without paying interest.
The banker class are determined TO continue
this system and their control of the money
of the country, and the great toiling masses
are just as determined that it shall be wrest.
ed from them and placed where the Consti-
tuition Of the United States declares il
belongs. The farmers have drawn up and
submitted their plans and ask they be
adopted or something better offered. Moth
irg else has been offered aud the plutocratlc
class have plainly stated they want none
other than their own plan which has yielded
them unnumbered millions. When the
government assumes the regulation of the
value of money interest will be put down to
the minimum merely the cost Of taking
care of the deposits and that OF exchange.
Senator PETER has made the first move in
this direction by calling for committee Of
the Senate to ascertain the actual cost ofsuch
work.

Maryland State Farmers Associa.
ton.


President Edward Stake of the
Maryland State Farmers Associa-
ton. has issued Call for the annual
meeting of this informal "Associa-
tion' to meet on Wednesday. Jan
uary 18th, 1892. in Baltimore. In
the Call Mr.. Stake says:
1t ia proposed to have the con
vention sit for period of at least
three days; its proceedings begin.
ming with the annual address of the
president. on the first day, and ad.
dress by the Hon. the Secretary of
Agriculture, on the second day, and
further addresses on fruit culture,
stock breeding. commercial fertiliz-
ers and other subjects by competent
speakers on the third day. The con.
vention will further consider the
subject OF legislation to secure the
improvement of our public roads; .
new assessment law, and an equitable
system of taxation, adopted to pro-
mote the agricultural interests OF
State, as well as other matters Of
interest generally to farmers.
The association earnestly appeals
to the farmers. planters and fruit
growers of Maryland to arouse such
interest in the subject as will bring
together large nnmber of farmers
in this convention in January. They
hope that every club and association
will send its delegates and that
steps will be taken promptly in each
county to secure q general meeting
of the farmers of each county to
select representatives, as proposed.
1t is suggested that few farmers
in each county issue call for this
purpose.
1t is believed that il this conven-
vention can agree with some unan
unity upon desirable legislative
action In aid of the interest of agri-
culture. and now arousing spirit OF
expectant concern will lead the in
coming legislature to cosider favor
ably and enact as laws what mSy be
presented as the means of advancing
and promoting this most important
OF the States industries.
The association also appeals to the
local newspapers of the State for
their aid in arousing the attention OF
the farmers of their respective sec
irons to the great importance of such
action as it is thus proposed to
secure.

a NARROW ESCAPE.
Mack Conner Run Over by street Ca,
ON Jefferson Street


Mack Conner, formerly driver fer
the Roanoke Transfer Company, met
with an accident, yesterday morning,
which came near resulting in the 10.
of his life.
He was standing on the corner of
Salem avenue and Jefferson street,
and, putting on his oyerc oat, started
around his. ears and did not notice the
approach of street car, which was d.
rectly on him. He was struck by one
Of the mules and knocked down The
animal stepped over him, but before he
could get out of the way the car wheels
struck him, the front one running over
his neck and jaw.
The driver stopped the car suddenly
and it was disc >yered that Conner was
in perilous position. He was laying
on his back with his head between tho
wheels unable to arise. 1t was i'm
possible to extricate him without NOV
ing the car, as the near wheel was on
his jaw and neck.
MIR. Blackwell and several other
gentlemen rushed up at this iuncture
and lifted up one side of the car, when
the unfortunate man was pulled out,
bleeding and bruised. He was taken to
DR.. Canaday's office, where an examina-
ton was made. The doctor found that
his left jaw had been broken, and that
he also had received several bruises
about the neck. lie was given proper
surgical treatment, and afterwards sent
to his homo in the northwestern portion
of the city. DIR. Canaday does not re-
gard his wounds as fatal, but decidedly
serious.
Conner worked for tho Roanoke Trans
fer Company until last Sunday, when he
quit his position.
Last night Corners condition was
very alarming to his friends aud rela-
tives, and the attending physician said
he would have to be attended very care
fully if he recovered.
