CHEAP MONEY IN SOUTH AMERICA.

CHEAP MONEY IN SOUTH AMERICA.
The Century Magazine has heen
giving series of articles in Topics of
the Time on the che-p money expert
ments of various countries. One of the
most instructive of these articles ap-
pears in the August number, and re-
lates to the financial disaster of the
Argentine Republic, which has been
called the Yankee land of South
America, the government of which is
closely modelled upon that of the Unit
ed States. Like ours, it is a country
of almost boundless resources, but
these haye availed but little against
the mistaken financial policy which it
inaugurated.
In 1873 there was established in the
capital city of the Argentine Republic,
Buenos Ayres, the Hypothecary or
Mortgage Bank, whose main object
was to make loans on all kinds of land
ed property. The principles upon
which these loans were to be made
were much the same as Senator Stan
ford is advocating as basis for similar
loans by the United States Govern
ment. Any person owning landed
property in the province could go to
the bank and secure loan for half it's
value, which was to be fixed by the
banks appraisers. The bank gave
him mortgage bond, called cedula,
which was to run for twenty-four years,
at from six to eight per cent. interest,
two per cent amortization, and one pei
cent commission. The interest was
payable quarterly, and there were cou-
pons attached for the twenty-four
years. An era of wild speculation fol-
lowed, and when the crash came few
years ago, the government was bonded
for nearly $500 for every man, woman
and child enumerated in it's census
As the latest attainable total of the
regular paper issue of the banks is
placed at 346 millions, the total paper
money in circulation in March of the
present year worth about Is cents on q
dollar, was S3SO,OOOOOO, all irredeem-
able and decreasing in value every day
This was a per capita circulation Of
500 for every man, woman and child
in the republic. That ought certainly
to have put "plenty of money in the
pockets of the people," for 800 is the
highest sum per capita our widest
cheap money advocates have ever de.
manded. When the collapse came the
nation gave itself over, as France had
done two centuries earlier, to rage an6
despair. Men who were believed t.
be worth millions found themselves
paupers. One man who had been worth
$2OOOO,O0O, which he had accumulat
ed during lifetime's devotion to hon
est industry, but who had been tempt
ed to venture it in speculation, los
every dollar,

Mankato Free Press: The French
Chamber of Deputies has passed
Mckinley bill by the emphatic major
ity of 1897 to 10. The free traders did
their best to defeat the measure; Eng
land threatened retaliation, not only in
the newspapers but in Parliament,and
the New York Evening Post threw its
weighty editorials, like the sword OF
Brennus, into the scale of free trade.
But all in vain. The French thought
they understood French interests bet
ter than did the English or the Anglo
New York Evening Post. They adopt
ed a tariff which, in the opinion OF
English manufacturers, is largely pro-
hibitory of foreign trade.

1t is fact significant to the farmer,
says an exchange, that during the past
decade the rural population increased
only IA per cent while that of the towns
increased by As per cent. The signif-
canoe is to oe found in the fact that
the latter are not food producers but
food consumers.

FROM HAf-TwIsTER.

The following extracts from recent
letter from Henry Gohrman, one Of
the pioneers of Granite Rock township,
will prove of interest to many friends
of the family. The lettor is dated
from Oshkosh, Deuel. county Nebraska:
This has so far been the coolest sum
mer I ever experienced. The rains have
been plentiful and oats and wheat look
we'll and nearly ready to harvest. All
garden stuff of the hardy kind are do
ing well. Millet, owing to the cold
summer, is almost failure, if l am
Judge, and as I raised millet about as
much as anybody in Redwood county,
l think I am. l don't think corn will
get ripe only in very isolated cases; it
is small and yellowish in appearance
in this part of Nebraska.
am glad Redwood county is boom
ing, and only wish my health had not
given out so would have taken some
of it in.
Our cattle wintered we'll, but for
some reason I do not know, are not do
ing as we'll in the summer as they used
to in Redwood county; that is, we are
only making one-half the butter from
the same number of COWS we used to
at this time of year. From % and "a
COWS, according to my books, we used
to ship at this season over 159 pounds
butter per week, and now we can only
market bareley 20 pounds from n
COWS and heifers that we milk. But I
do not leave on that account. think
we could do very we'll here, but I have
to go where it is warmer on account of
health.
The family is in good health, how
ever. Ny own is better in some re-
spects, and not SO good in others, and
1 take the world easy, and am ignor-
ant of the leading questions of the
day. In fact, when almost too late, l
have to bow more deferentially to the
mandates of the Goddess Hygiea.
Well, make known to your readers
that my postofice is changed and that
l don't know where the next one will
be, but hope soon to find the Eldorado
and exclaim Eureka, and then, of
course, I'll write to every one I owe a
letter. We are leaving with all the
cattle and have six work horses now.
Trusting you and all Redwood will
be prospecting, I remain
HENRY GoHRMAN.
