THE CORN BURNER CONVERTED

Who would have believed, even one
short year ago, that the light would have
dawned SO soon upon the Iowa State
Register. 1t seems but yesterday when
Our highly esteemed contemporary was
advising tile Iowa and Kansas farmers to
burn their corn in order to improve the
industrial and financial situation. The
finances were al! right and the banking
system perfect, bit there was simply
too much corn. Burn it aud all would
be well. But the following extract
which we clip from the Register of the
10Th inst, proves that the November
cyclone did not pass over Iowa in vain:
1t is Idle to attempt to deny that the ma
jority of the people are dissatisfied with the
present banking system. The national
banks and the money lenders Of the entire
country are now demanding amendment or
regulation in their interest; tho president,
the secretary of the treasurer and the con-
gressional committees nave been laboring
diligently for the past two weeks to ar
range some method that VIII give relief to
the bankers and other money lenders of the
leading money centers. Those who loan are
clainorous for government assistance, and
have been far more vociferous in agitating
their demands for several weeks past than
borrowers ever have done. The papers adj
vocating the cause of the lenders against
thatof the borrowers make no reference
whatever to the fierce demands for prompt
relief from all the leading money centers.
People who read the daily press dispatches
from New York and Washington know tina
a desperate effort is being made by the ma
tional banks to force amendment or regu-
lation Of the national banking laws in the
interest of the bank. No one can make de-
NAL of this statement.
This reads like an extract from some
%greenback speech or an address issued
by some union labor convention. 1t at
tacks bodily the national banking sys-
tenn, administration and the American
congress. all solidly republican! This is
a shot from an unexpected quarter. We
advise u friends throughout Iowa to
procure copies of the Register of Dec. 10,
for they will have use for them by and
by. Brother Clarkson may yet rival
Brick Pomeroy rs a fiatist and aspire to
lead the radical wing of the currency re-
formers. But, We advise him not to be-
come too enthusiastic and to keep a little
in the rear Of the currency skirmishers.
It's the safest position by all odds.
Sherman's bummers exposed themselves
unnecessarily, and If Brother Clarkson
should shove out too rashly he may be
taken for a demagogue and be picked off
prematurely.-Io1Cd Tribune.

The new e%xtraditton treaty with Can.

materially deeteased.t the number OF largo
defatcations and embeSzienehts III. the

ones shows no falling off.
"Ve have on an average three EN-.
bezzlements every two days. said the
vice president Of one of the city surety
companies fn New York a few days q

business Of bonding employees Is mainly
confined To clerks. End railroad and ef-
press men; aid the amounts we are
called on to make good are small. The

elements are under SIC, 600.
"The desire for accumulating wealth
by speculation is at the bottom Of nearly
every case, and the first step the tempo

has been the ruin OF thousands; They
need the money, take it, and Probably

THE new ~extradition treaty has done
much to stop population. but the vigor-
Gus prosecution of offenders has done
more. The new treaty, however, gives
more facilities for bringing these crimi-
nails to justice. Before, in nearly every
case Of embezzlement; the prosecution
had to prove forgery In order I'd. extra:
dominion by prosecuting for bringing
stolen property into Canada. AS it is
hard to identify money, however, the
criminal could often dodge the latter
charge, and, not being guilty of the
former, could escape entirely. Now IL
is almost impossible for u mar to escape,
but in many instances the amount taken
is so small and the cost Of prosecution 50
great that the matter is dropped. In
every case in which we are interested we
prosecute unrelentlessly. We must do
so to deter others, and in many instances
have spent far more to convict a man
than his embezZlement amounted to-"

"THE RisiNG sT6RM.'

The old party press is p~aralyzed with
fright. The heavy cannonading Of No
vember and the rapid firing Of the skirm-
ishers all along the line has started
them on g dead rum The following eX-
tract Clipped from the editorial columns
of the Register of the 10th inst, is a
sample of the piteous appeals for help
now issuing daily from the. organs Of the
money power from one end of the couna
try to the other.
The Farmers alliances, Oranges, and all
other farm associations ave been express
ing discohtent with the national banking
system for a number Of years. They Will
now be Joined by the Citizens alliance,
which Is composed of town and city menu
bership, and will cooperate with the farm
organizations. If these elements can be
combined Into one party; and given control
of congress and the executive department
the nation will certainly see a revolution in
financial legislation. Is it not greatly bet
ter to consider the demands Of the farmers,
and all borrowers for an extension OF the
national banking system in a manner that
will give relief to borrowers as we'll as

The Registers specific for "dissolv-
ing elements is for congress to modify
the banking law in the interest Of bor-
rowers. 1t thinks the farmers are clam
orous for this. Banks are not run, nor
can they be sin the interest OF borrow
ers." Their business is conducted in the
interest of lenders, and will ever be so
conducted. Nor is there D demand any
where among the farmers tora moditi-
cation. They demand the utter and
complete extinction of the national bank.
ing system, and they demand that the
government shall resume its constitn-
tional and sovereign control over the
three great instruments of commerce,
money, transportation and telegraphy.
The plutocratic press will strive in vain
to 'sdissolye the elements that will pre-
cipttate the storm" They are above

must and will come, and the air will be
purer and sweeter afterwards.-Iopa
