Toledo. o., Jan. 10, 1887.
Messrs. f. j. Cheney & Co., Gentlemen -
I have been in the general practice of medi-
cine for most 40 years, and would say that in ali
practice and experience have never seen prepara-
ton that 1 could prescribe with much confidence
of success as / can Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
tured by you. Having prescribed it great many
times and its effect wonderful and would say in
conclusion thatI have yet to find a case of Catarrh
that it would cure, they would take it accord
ing to directions. Yours Truly,

The maple sugar bounty seems to
have gone up for this year. Attor-
ney General Miller on the 10th, de-
cided that the bounty was not opera
tive until the 1st of July. This will
be serious disappointment to our
Vermont farmers, who have their
minds fully made up to drawing the
bounty this spring.

The national House of Representa-
tives has passed bill granting Gen.
Banks a pension of 500 a month.
1t is hoped the Senate viii increase
it to 5000. 1t is a generous act, and
most people will be glad that the
venerable soldier-statesman is to be
thus provided for.

In Germany the telephone service
is under government control and the
patrons do not dare to swear over it
for fear of being arrested for treason
to the empire. Here's an argument
for the Nationalists. Government
control of the telephone is in the
interest of morality.

A mass meeting was held in Fanu-
ell hall, Boston, Tuesday, protesting
against free silver. The hall was
crowded and speeches were made by
the prominent business men and fin
anciers, showing clearly that the drift
of New England sentiment was
against debasing our money to the
silver standard. It ought to have
good effect at Washington.

The decision of the House of Rep
resentatives to investigate the char
ges in relation to an alleged silver
pool at the last session, and also to
learn who owns the S12,OOO,OOO
worth of silver bullion which it is
now proposed to have this Govern
ment buy was a good one. This
was the only sensible course for the
House to take. Honest men have
no reason to fear; and the country
has a right to demand that the dis
honest ones if there be any such in
Congress, be exposed. Let the in
vestigation proceed, and in the Ian
guage of Gen. Grant," let no guilty
man escape.

luck. The attempt to have the su-

this country and Great Britain was
intended by the Britishers to be a
great surprise to Mr. Blaine, but it
did not surprise him in the least, he
had been expecting just that very
move. Come again Johnny.

1t speaks volumes for the stability
of your present system of finance
that the alarming speaches recently
made in the senate have not precipi
tated panic. Not only has the coun-
try escaped the panic which was
threatened a few weeks ago, but its
finances are rapidly assuming their
normal condition and confidence,
the primal requisite of commercial
prosperity, is returning in business
circles. And, do not forget, when
considering this matter, that the
credit for our present financial system
belongs exclusively to the republican
party.

over and some of the troops at the
scene of disturbance have been Or
dered elsewhere. The Indians may
have some cause, such as insufficient
supplies, for making trouble, but
since it began the war department
has managed affairs very skillfully,
and in most instances without mis-
take and deserves a great deal of
credit. After the treachery of the
Indians was manifested there was
great provocation to go in and ami
hilate them.

The following comes from Leland
Stanford. 1t is good doctrine, and
although his land bill is an unsafe
bill to trust, this man is undoubted-
ly far over towards the reform zone
for a wealthy man:
At the present time paper money is
preferred to gold. BY the act of 1882
there are 100000, 900 in gold in the
treasury to exchange for money, yet
I believe not a dollar has been offered
for that gold.
Silver is the popular money as
against gold everywhere in this
country and in Europe. Besides,
gold when locked up has no value.
1t is no better than old iron or peb-
bles on the beach. Money is only
valuable according to it's use. In
fact, gold is OF very little consequence
to the people of the United States on
this side OF the Rocky mountains. It
does not circulate as money here. it
is not the money Of the people. Sill
yer is preferred. but silver comes in
competition with the money of the
banker. But the main idea is that
our paper money today do not
propose to borrow trouble about the
future-but to-day a piece of paper
with the government stamp is as
good as any money in the world.
Therefore, why buy gold when paper

The National Executive Conmattee.

The National Executive Committee,
The Committee met at st. Louis
last Saturday. Five of the seven
members were present. Mr.. Donnel-
" was absent owing to his presence
being compelled at New York,
where dispositions were being taken
in his celebrated $1,000 libel suit.
1t was decided to leave the active
work in the hands of chairman Tau
beneck for the present. Taubeneck
is q faithful mantle one who stood
out single handed for the alliance
candidate for the senate during the
late fierce conflict in the Illinois leg
islature.
To help raise funds for the work a
medal will be struck in Aluminium
and sold to the alliances.
A resolution was passed enabling
the state sections of the National
Committee to add to their number
for state work.

The street-car strikers of Grand
Rapids, Mich, have had another
pitched battle in the streets. 1t oc-
.curred on the 10th inst. 1t began
with bricks and clubs, and although
the mob was broken up the police
seem to have had the worst of it.
Several were wounded with stones
and pistol shots, and eight, or ten of
sthe rioters wounded with bullets.
The daily papers give no idea as to
(which party were in the wrong. But
the. strikers maintained that they de-
served as good care as the horses
.got-especially when it came to food
and clothing. The car company is
bonded for more than the plant is
worth, and consequently to pay d.
vidends on the bogus valuation they
reduce the pay OF employees.

not only answers the purpose, but is
a great deal better, because it is un-
limited in supply? The supply OF
gold and silver is limited and not
controlled by the government. As
the government alone can make
money, it ought to make enough to
supply the want. The failure Of the
banking house in London upset the
financial affairs of America, England,
France and more or less the whole of
Europe; all for want of "a, 900, 900
or 25,OOO,OOO for l believe that
amount would have saved the Bar
ings. What kind of financial sys-
tenn is it when in a country like Eng
land such q failure takes place for
want of few million dollars, and
when we see in New York that even
upon the best securities money can
only be borrowed from day to dav
and at a high rate of INTEREST," As
we'll might the Astors-who have
millions in securities-fail for the
want of $40.

Dodge. Rusk, and Reports.

The U. s. agricultural bureau
sends out monthly reports on the
status OF the crops. They are OF
about as much value as chaff-pod
II an elephants stomach.
A Year ago Dodge was publishing
the ocean freights on wheat, New
York to Liverpool, at 10, IL and
12c. We sent the department a let
ter couched in the GREAT VESTS
most touching language, spike
shoes on each foot. In the next is
sue those rates appeared at from 3
to &c. a bushel! At that time, how
ever, real freights were lie. to &c.
Those reports are of tremendous
value{?)-but to wh3rn the value ap-
plies is not yet ascertained. Rusk
has a record which is known as
"Pork in that for mel" If he ever
comes up for Office there'l! be some

Our friend A. ]. Rude, of Gary,
Mimi, sends us another document
from the Census Bureau, (Porter) in
guiring as to whether there really is
q mortgage on his farm.
Inasmuch as Porter has declined
to give out any more facts regarding
the awful mortgage record-after
aowa's $2OO,OOO,OOO and Alabama's
95, 900, OOO-we begin to distrust the
u. S. government more than ever
and we agree with Mr.. Rude that it
is just as we'll to let the Census Bu-
reau take care of itself as we'll as it
can. Every one knows that they
undertook to Dodge the issue at
first-and we do not believe in late
conversions.

There is now an enormous drug
trust in the United States, and any
retailer who does not confer to the
trust, in cities where it is esta blished,
can buy no drugs of the wholesale
houses.
One of these days people will wake
up and say the government can fix
prices for buyer and seller better
than a trust can fix for both sides!
And lo!-the world will say-which
shall we have, Trusts or Socialism!
All, there Mr.. Pluto perhaps you
cuss the socialists Overmuch.

Our good Bro. Rearick, of Pillager,
Mimi, sends us a club of ten new sub
scribers, and writes as follows:
We are suffering here for want of
money, and it is almost impossible
to get change. Settlers are all poor,
and we are blessed with a horde OF
middlemen who, to make their selfish
ends meet, will not pay us cash for
our produce, but steadily insist on
trade-leaving us powerless to help
ourselves.
We have organized an Alliance and
sent for charter, hoping that by or
;ganization We may possibly in time
better our condition.

to be. A small issue of bare constitu-
'tions was gotten out for few favor
ties, we believe-this Office received
none. But the contract for the An
nual, made last January by Miss Nc.
Donald was a fat fizzle. They may
come out now-that the year for
work has passed by. The alliance
will suffer under such outrages and
keep calm with amazing grace.

BANKING.
Almost every member of the Farm
ers' Alliance of America are now in
terested in the subject OF banking.
There has never been a time when
the common people 80 ardently
studied national and corporate f.
nances. Indeed it is a truth that the
farmers of the United States are the
best posted class of people on this
subject. The citizens of the city can
bear no comparison with the farmer
in this respect.
We are often asked for reference to
a concise work on Banking, in order
that the history and primary ele-
ments of handling money so as to
make money by operating with
other peoples money might be bet
ter understood.
While there are many works upon
this subject, we have not been inclin-
ed to place them in the hands of the
general reader in the country unless
they are prepared to digest strong
meat. For all such works are writ
ten in the interest of the banker!-
and they stand on the foundation
that brokerage and banking are a
part of civilization, and a great ad-
vantage-a necessity-to the COM
mercial world!
In large measure this is true
but where the cause and the sequence
blend-and where the cause is in ex-
istence, and the sequences justifiable
only because unjust causes exist
there are matters which the ordinary
reader is not prepared to under
stand. He is not prepared to follow
on page after page-with the fact
visible continually, that the writer is
writing upon facts and theories
which depend upon great commercial
wrongs for their being.
However, if a person can take a
work in hand with strong, indie
pendent mind of his own, and read
to study and question, there is a
work we would like to place in their
hands. 1t is:
"Theory and History OF Bank
ing" by Charles F. Dunbar, Profess
sor OF Political Economy in Harvard
University.
The book is published by G. P.
Putnam's Sons, New York City, 200
pages, cloth-bound, and handsomely
printed. The price we have not at
hand, but it is about a dollar book.
You can address a postal to the pub
fishers and get the price. The con-
tents are as follows:
Introductory.
Discount, Deposit, and Issue.
Banking operations and accounts.
The check system.
Bank-notes.
Combined reserves.
The bank OF Amsterdam.
The bank OF France.
The national banks of the United
States.
The bank OF England.
The Reichsbank OF Germany.
We rarely give so extended a no.
tice of book-but we do wish to
have the alliance members become
thoroughly posted on these great
questions.
