wages paid TO wage workers.

Mr.. 3. says:
Let us see what would happen if those
schemes were to be put in operation. First
will be noticed the results that would fol-
low the adoption of the plan to loan money
on real estate. The fast that the govern.
ment would show special favor to owners
of land by lOaning them money (lf it were
worth anything) at a rate of interest less
than the prevailing rate would Immediately
put new premium upon land owning and
the value of land would promptly increase.
AS the consequence of this increase, the
landlees would find it more difficult than
ever to acquire land. The tenant farmer
would find himself obliged to remain a
tenant farmer, and the renter of house to
remain renter. In fact all the evils of
European landlordism would be precipi-
tated upon the landless people of our coun-
try at once. That would be bad enough,
but that would not be all.
Mr.. S. is mistaken. If the people were
to issue to themselves money upon real
estate at rate Of interest not to exceed
2 per cent, such rate instead of being
''less than than the prevailing rate" T"
would at once become the prevailing
rate" The reduction in the rates of in
terest and profit would increase the
amount In dollars of wages, and the in
creased opportunities for profitable in
vestment of capital, bearing low rate
Of interest would have the same effect.
While the land loan or issue plan might
perhaps increase the value of improved,
productive real estate, the only class
of real estate upon which money
would be issued), unimproved real es-
tate, even If Its price remains stationary,
would be prOportionately lower on &C
count of the increase in wages and the
landless wageworker would have a better
opportunity than now to acquire home.
Besides this, proper system of gradu-
ated cumulative tax, levied upon unim-
proved land, would soon cause owners
of unused and unoccupied land to be
anxious to sell their land.
AS to the sub treasury plan, If Mr.. s.
will answer one question he will In such
answer, see revealed the puerile and
foolish nature of his objection to said
plan. The question is this: If the farm
ers Of the nation were all out of debt
and able to hold their grain if they so
wished and could sell their grain, or
withhold it from the market at their
pleasure, would Mr.. S. then conclude
that there was "a vast national food trust
embracing all the farmers Of the coun-
try, whose undisguised purpose would
be, under the tariff on food products,
to "corner" the food products of the ma
ton and then force the price Of the
poor mans bread to q point as high as
the traffic would bear"
And he might answer this one also.
Is it necessary that the farmers should
be forced by their necessities and the
clamor of their creditors, to push upon
the market in the space of sixty or
ninety days the food supply for 6O,OOO,OOO
of Americans and 100000 foreigners
in order that our land may not be "filled
with the dreadfully ominous impreca-
tions of monstrous army Of desperate,
starving bread rioters?"

take into consideration the fact that the
current prevalent rate Of interest for the
last past twenty years has been nearer
10 than 4 per cent, he will see that in
terest has been a grievous, oppressive
tax upon productive industry" and will
understand why 1t is that whereas labor
twenty years ago owned three-fourths of
the thirty billions Of national wealth, IL
now owns but one-fourth of the sixty
billions of national wealth, while $1,000
individuals own three-ffths of such
wealth. So much for the proposition
that interest Is not a "tax upon produc-
tive industry"
Mr.. s., In the commencement of his
article says:
Any one who believes with A. N. Noebins
that interest is a tax on productive indus
try by nOn-produCing capital" no doubt
looks upon interest as being premium
exaCted for the use of money, and upon the
rate Of interest as being governed by the
number Of dollars in the country per capita.
/ am at q loss just how to understand
the first portion Of above paragraph, as l
have never yet seen any other definition
of interest, except that it is a premium
exscted for the use of money. While l
am one who not only believes that Sin
terest is a tax on productive industry by
non-prOducing capital" but who also be-
lieveS that the people should furnish
themselves with capital, or money, at
the cost of issue, I do not believe that
the rate of interest is governed by the
number of dollars in the country per
capita. On the contrary, believe that
under just and equitable monetary sys-
tenn, operated In the interest of the
whole people, the rate Of interest would
govern the number Of dollars in active
use and circulation.
Under just, equitable and scientific
monetary system, the volume Of money
or numbers of dollars In active use and
circulation would be limited In amount
only by the quantity that could be
proftably used In productive industries
and the channels of commerce, provided
such money could be freely obtained at
a rate of interest which would equitably
divide the net annual product of the ma
tlon between the two factors-labor and
capital.
AS have already indicated, rate of
interest of 2 per cent. would fill the re-
quired conditions, giving to labor and
capital each one-half of the net product
of their joint efforts. Even under pres
ent conditions and prevalent rates of in
terest, my theory is proven to be correct,
money being borrowed for use in pro-
ductive industries only as such indus
tries give promise of profits or returns
sufficient, not only to pay the current
rate Of interest upon the borrowed
money, but also to pay those engaging
In such industries satisfactory wages in
the form Of profits. So then dismiss
Mr.. SIS proposition concerning interest
with the counter proposition that inter
est is a tax upon productive industry just
In proportion to it's rate such rate being
fair and equitable only as it equally
divides the product Of productive in
dustry" equally between capital and la
Dor. The foregoing argument, however,
only applies to the promoters, exploiters
or wage payers In such productive in
dustrles. So far as the wage workers or
real toilers are concerned, the amount

mn odd freak of nature was exhi-

about two years old. The little
fellow has no legs worthy of men,

trunk at the hip joint. The arms
are of the usual length but the
olbow joint is reversed and the
hands are without fingers, having
little nubs on the kunckles on the
back of the hands, which he uses
tolerably well. The peculiar
swinging motion of the limbs was

That Outlet.

The many creHasses just above
and just below the city within the
last three days has demonstrated
the need of an outlet to preserve
millions of dollars worth of pro-
perty along the line of the Missis-
sippi river from overflow and de-
struction.
The Truth, while advocating
and believing in the levee system
as being a good thing in its way,
recognizes that the river shoals
yearly on account of the jetties,
and that if something is not done
that within the next two or three
years the height of the levees
will have to be inceased four or
five feet. The increase will con-
tinue to 60 OH and the water will
go higher until New Orleans in
stead of being higher than the;
highest high water mark, will be!
several feet lower. Then the real
danger will arrive, and New Or
leans will be in position 70 be
SWEPT away. Levees can not be-
built strong enough to Withstand
the pressure, and something will
have to give way.
Interstate engineers, members
of the Mississippi River Commits
sion, holding splendid paying
position and others having money
at stake, of course, favor the levee
system, and want to- keep increa-
sng the height of the embark
ments, but the people paying a
heavy levee tax, the railroads
competent engineers and others
who have given the matter tho.
, rough study and lifelong consi'
Iteration, see that the outlet sys.
tenn will have to be adopted soon

: Legislature given the resolutio,
