Think Over Those Figures.

A statistician who has been digging
into the census reports and sitting out
suggestive facts and figures, presents
the following general summary:
Twenty years ago 1t was estimated
that the producing classes owned three
fourths of the wealth Of the nation; to-
day only about one-fourth OF the ma
tion's wealth is in the hands OF the pro-
ducing classes, yet the wealth of the ma
tion has been doubled In the same pc
riod. They have lost, in comparison to
the increase OF wealth, two-thirds Of
their wealth in the last twenty years
The cause for this can best be found in
a study Of few figures. The wealth Of
the nation in this period, according To
census reports, has increased at the rate
Of about per cent per annum, which
has been added TO the wealth by the la
Dor Of the producing classes. The av-
erage dividends on capital for the same
period has been per cent per year.
Under our present conditions OF society,
capital and labor are combined in al
most every branch OF human industry.
Now IL will be seen by comparison Of
the productive power OF labor and the
dividends paid 70 capital, that capital
has been receiving as wages the full
production OF wealth, and absorbing the
former possessions Of the wealth pro-
ducer, the latter class losing 66i per
cent OF their wealth in twenty years.
and the capitalists gaining 66i per cent.
The estimated wealth OF the nation to-
day is $50, 600 9O0. 900, OF which 10000
capitalists are said TO own S36, 30. 600.
$1,000 900 owning s29, $50, 90; 80, 900 cap
italists are said 10 own three fourths Of
the nations wealth. II there was an
even $1,000. 900 inhabitants in the ma
tion, the wealth would be distributed as
foiicws; Two hundred and fifty thou
sand people represent $500, 900, 600;
%, $50. 900, 900 people represent sl6,500,
100000 Of wealth.
II the producing classes have been
compelled to surrender two-thirds OF
their wealth in the past twenty years to
the capitalists, the outlook is gloomy
enough to justify the gravest apprehen-
sions. Il is useless 10 argue that II
1000 men can lawfully absorb three

Every industrial organization In the
United States has demanded the pay
ment OF the national debt as speedily as
possible. Notwithstanding this univer-
sal demand, tn esecretary has given no.

quest that the $50, 1000, 900 of ~ per cents,

enough OF itself TO bury this admins
tration beneath an avalanche OF ballots

pleted that the United States is bank,

who is responsible for 1t? 1t has been
but few months since the treasurer
WAS purchasing bonds not due until

A great deal of excitement has been
created Of late, especially among spec
ulaiors, over the rumor that there was
a movement among the farmers OF the
country 10 hold the present wheat crop
for better prices. Ii is now an estab-
lished fact that the worlds supuly OF
wheat is unusually short, and that
American wheat will be in great de-
mand TO supply the deficiency. While
this is true. Kansas is blessodlwith one OF
the most bountiful yields in her history:
and the question now Is, will the pro-
ducers receive the benefit of their toll, or
will ihey, az usual, become the prey and
victims OF scheming spectators, and
only. II quite. receive the cost OF pro-
duction. Our farmers are greatly in
debt and sadly In need OF money, which
makes them almost detenselcss against
the manipllations Of grain gamblers
who calculates on their poverty fore
ing them to sacrifice the product Of
their land rnd labor. Now the ques-
tion arises, "What are we goicg to do
about it?' Do we propose 10 continue
this condition OF affairs, or will we,
like business men, stand together,
shoulder to shoulder, and have somo-
luluE 10 say ~ 10 Nhdt ti' PtDNN'N vi
our toll shall bring? A circular is now
ont urging farmers 10 hold their wheat,
which is very valuable document,
containing vast amount Of informa-
tion regarding the wheat product Of
tha world and tho worlds market for
it The circular is quite lengthy. II
Expresses the very positive opinion
that the price Of wheat must go up, and
rightly urges the farmers 10 hold their
surplus. These circulars are sent out
from st. Paul with the assistance and
unqualified approval OF the alliance
bureau of information, and will reach a
million farmers within few days. In
the meantime farmers, hold your
wheat. kansas Farmer.

The money centers, as well as the
rural districts. seem TO be suffering for
want OF money. The volume OF curren-
Icy In circulation is SO very small In
comparison so the great demands OF
the immense commerce OF our country,
that even that class OF lnanciers who
speculate and develop are recognizing
its insuliiciency, and are coming over to
the alliance demands for more
money. Each faction has its own ideas
Of the way this deficiency should be
met and yet the great central Idea Is
more money. IL Is a significant fact
the farmers who have heretofore trust
cd TO others the management Of the
nations finances, should have been the
first TO see the great mistake which has
been made, and should have not only
struck the root OF this great evil a.
once, but should have also provided
a remedy We say significant, be.
cause il enforces the fact that this re-
form movement Is the result OF great
necessity. The people have suffered,
but for years did not look for the cause,
and OF course did not seek the proper
relief. Now they have looked deeper,
and not only found the cause OF their
troubles, but have gone sduarely TO
work as an organized body setting forth
the evil and the remedies. Since so
many classes recognize the necessities
OF reform in our finances, and are will
ing TO join with us In demand for
more money there must be unity OF
action as TO the plan by which this
money is to be issued. In order toprop-
erly understand this question, and ar
rive at the best plan OF operation, the
first question we should settle IL: For
whom is this money to be issuedy' Is 1t
to be issued for the people or for the
money kings, bondhoders and political
bosses? We presume there Is no
man who will not at once say the in-
crease OF currency should be for the
people, and not for the preferred few
Now, II this new money be issued in
the old way what shall the people do:
Il there any way for them TO get the
use OF money under that system ex-
cept through shylocks, vampires and
money changers? No. we want the

tional bank notes, not gold and silver

which provides no way OF getting into
the hands OF the people, but we want
the money issued 50 the people can
get It at reasonable interest. That
being the case, this money must OF
necessity be issued upon q sound basis,
and to reach the people that must bo
something that the people have. Then
we must see what the people have that
can be used as basis for currency.

The papers opposed to the alliance

Times.

NEW YORK, Aug. I2.-R G. Dun &
Cos weekly report OF trade says
While business In many lines Is dis
appointing, the feeling Of confidence
distinctly increases. The belief in-
creases that the country will be able to
sell such gast quantities OF grain abroad
and draw 50 heavily upon foreign sup
plies OF capital that all home Industries
will be greatly stimulated Though at
some northern points money markets
are tight, supplies at western centers
are adequate for legitimate business and
mere speculation gets less help than
usual. Depressions In some great in
dustrles continues and is real, but may
be traced 10 causes obviously not per-
manent.
Chicago feels the effect OF gre at crops
distinctly, wheat receipts being seven
fold last years, rye five fold barley two
fold, wool nearly double, and la corn,
beef hides aud butter some increase Is
had. Sal Of clothing and shoes are
larger than ever before at this season,
and in all lines collections are satisfac
tory. AT other western points the crop
prospects are almost everywhere mem
toned as unsurpassed. aud at 81 Louis
grows more pressing, and commercial
borrowers are held more closely to their
needs. At Minneapolis and st. Paul,
Omaha and Kansas City, trade is gem
orally good; at Louisville and Nashville
improving. At Memphis and Savannah
reports OF the trade are less favorable,
and at Jacksonville business Is very
dull. Unfavorable weather has strength
Mt n,I. Ias -,
mand for sugar is good, with rice strong
and money in good demand, but with
supply ample for legitimate trade.
Prices for commodities are going
down and for the first time this veal
the general level is lower than year
ago, having declined one-half per cent.
the past week. Wheat has fallen three
tourths OF a cent In spite OF exports
greatly exceeding last years and the
enormous western receipts make CON
stantly repeated assertions that the alli-
ance can hold back wheat appear ridic-
ulous. Western estimates not usually
extreme now allow from 545, 600, 600
bushels upward for the crop, while even
more moderate eastern estimates make
200, 600 900 bushels for exports Corn

tion lower, coffee an eight lower.
Financial prospects have not changed,
and though money on call is cheap, COM
mercial loans are made with caution.
Large failures have occurred, bat none
threatening financial disturbance. The
tone abroad is less strained and the
bank of France has gained gold largely,
but pressure in Europe must result If
needs for breadstuifs are as large as are
supposed Foreign imports Of merchan-
disc In New York in July fall 10 per
cent below the year, while tho exports
largely increase. The demand for
money to move crops begins to be felt
