Blaine's Opinion of our English
Banking System.

"Could there be scheme devised
that would legally enable certain
class OF men to get money without
work, to grow rich by robbing the
people, to swallow up the fortunes Of
the masses more effectually than the
system of banking pursued in this
country up to the time of the intro
duction of the greenbacks If it is
possible to inaugurate greater
system of robbery of the people
money, that system has been inau
gurated in the present system oil
national banks. The money lost by
the people under the old system Of
State banks is a mere bagatelle COM
pared to that which has been and
will be taken from them under the
present system of national banks

Congressional Record 1880. page lis
of the Appendix.
Jas. G.. Blaine was repud:ated by
the republican party at Minneapolis
under the lead of Chauncy M.
Depew, Vanderbilt's good man Fri
day, and Harrison. who seems to
please the millionaires so we'll, was
taken in his stead. Can the votes oil
the friends of James G. Blaine be
controlled in the interest of the Van

A Great and Grave Danger Ahead

The exception clause on the Treasury
notes issued under the law of July 18th,
1890, threatens to become as great cause
for suffering and loss TO this country, as The
exception clause on the old greenbacks
during the war. This new exception on
the Treasury notes, 10 practice means, illegal
tender, except when gold is demanded in
the contract"
The effect of this clause on the finances of
tine Nation, is to create countless debts, or
contracts, payable in gold coin. Every bond
issued by railway corporations, industrial
corporations, and all mortgage Indebtedness
by farmers and others, is now made under a
contract, that they are payable in gold
coin.' The aggregate Indebtedness :hns
assumed since this law went into effect,
foots up IN the thousands of millions.
We haye solid reasons 10 many facts for
saying, that this exception clause is con
spiracy of Jew bankers, and others in their
pay. to imperil the security of the farmer.
the workman. and all who are dependent
upon their toll for their bread and butter.
The conspiracy extends, first, to export
all the gold in the country which can be
spared from ecessary reserve funds; and
next, foreclose this gold Indebtedness by
commanding fasGars and others to buy gold
from Jews and those in theis gay at such
prices as they choose TO ask, as was the
case during the war.
Already cable dispatches from England
are almost daily reaching this country,
predicting that the United States will short
ly-within few weeks or so-be out of
gold. sad gold will be selling in the open
market al "a psesaiam.
This time the exception 1!snse will not
leave choice 10 the decision of the psop!e,
whether they will MAINTAIN legal tender
currency independent of gold, lin the shape
of greenbacks,) because The workings of this
clause has already bound the farmers and
borrowers by contract 10 buy gold, with
which 10 pay their Indebtedness.
Every day HoR sees new obligations issued
in some part of the eaaatry, which add
millions to the already colossal aeLl ghich
borrowers in this country have obligated
themselves TO pay in gold coin.
The indications are that the Jews can
spring thSiE trap, gust as soon as they get
ready, by throwing on our market few
millions in our railway securities which |
they now own. Practically this country is |
now reduced to twelve millions of gold |
dollars as the only available sum TO meet
further expectation. See last Treasury
statement. Now what do American debtors
propose 10 do about it2

Four Interests.

The last report of the Secretary of the
Treasury shows the banks as loaning
$3.50, o92,6S7. Four times the amount OF
money there is to loan. Four interests on
each dollar. They are drawing from The
people enough to run the government. How
long will it take them to gather in all the
property of the nation? This does not in.

and savings banks. Add to this the billions
