GOVERNMENT RAILROADS AND LEGAL
TENDER
TENDER,

To the Editor Of The ADVOCATE.
| noticed In the issue of February 28
that J. D. Rockefeller is worth $l55, ,000,-
600, all accumulated in twenty seven
years. The interest on this at 10 per cent.
would amount Sl5, 100000 per year, and
represents $4,000 homes, each valued
at 81 900, which Is taken every year from
labor as interest. Even at 5 per cent. 1t
would represent 1900 homes. Is 1t any
wonder that the people are losing their
homesteads and becoming tenants, as this
Is but one millionaire of eight or ten
thousand? The people are waking up,
and II they don't vote themselves out of
poverty they deserve to suffer. 1t is for
them to choose which they will have
poverty or plenty. Continue the present
system, they choose poverty. To build a
railroad from the Atlantic to the Pacific
they contract to the lowest bidder, who
hires labor at the lowest possible living
wages; when the road is completed 1t is
covered with stocks, bonds and mortgages,
for the present and UNBORN generations
to pay. Labor has done all the work and
owns none of 1t. Again, to have plenty,
let the people set themselves to work on
road, through the government, and pay
them in legal tender money as the road
Is built by labor, which would be the
base and call for issue. 1t would place
labor In exchange with general labor,
and when the road was completed the
people would own 1t, without iDcum-
brance. This system would apply to all
properties Of labor; you merely apply
money as a factor at cost OF issue to all
improvements, and usury Is dead, and
mortgages as interest bearing are Of the
past.

the start; and to day France Is the
richest and most prosperous nation In
the world, with per capita circulation
of $57, and that 80 evenly distributed
among the people that extremes Of wealth
and poverty are very rare.
One other point I want to touch upon,
and am done. While I can see much
that is good in Mr.. Higgins "plan Of
salvation," l do earnestly protest against
the exception clause on the proposed
United States notes. We have had
enough of that, thank you. Give as full
legal tender money, backed by the govern
ment, and It will never depreciste below
gold.
Cripple 1t in the way proposed, and
history will repeat itself, and we will
soon have 331155 cent dollars and 100 cent
dollars, the one for you and I, the
other for the favored few who own
the gold and bonds. No, no. Let us
profit by the lessons of the past, and In
sist on full legal tender money, Issued
by the government direct to the people.
And while we are about 1t, let US get on
the st. Louis platform of 1892, and en-
dorse every plank in it, for 1t is sound
from top to bottom, and there Is not a
bad or defective plank in it.
And let as stand by all such papers as
The ADVOCATE first, last, and all the
time. They are worth more to the cause
of the people than an "army with ban
ners." They are giving the people solid
facts, backed up by plenty of proof;
straight forward, clear cut arguments,
that cannot be refuted.
And the opposition are forced to resort
to hard names and abuse for want Of ar
gument, and lies for want Of facts.
Honest Republicans and Democrats all
over the country are noticing and com
menting on this difference; and 1t is
causing them to stop and think; and the
man who stops to think is lost Ito the
old party). Like Mr.. Higgins, their
backs are to the old partv.

It is naturalization or cooperation. In
reading BellamY's "LOoking Backward" j"
1t pictures heaven on earth; when l
had completed it, In review asked my
self what caused this great change, and
it was as plain to me as If mirrored. 1t
was the equality of the letters of credit,
equalizlDg consumption at the highest
wants of the people, which was their de-
mand on supply; it took the place OF our
present money and credits, wiping out
all interests and debts, making The peo-
pie free.
But few realize how close we are to
the Bellamy 81 stem, through the action
of the conference Of the organizations at
st. Louis on Februry %, wherein they
declared for legal tender money, issued
and controlled by the government, and
loaned on non-perishsble property at 2
per cent. and received in payment forall
public Improvements. 1t reduces all In
terest to per cent, to be collected and
paid to the government at request Of any
debtor wishing to pay any present debt,
said interest would go the United States
treasury, to pay legal running expenses
of the government, thus taking the place
of present taxes. 1t would settle the
complicated labor question of the day;
immigrants would receive representation
and employment without friction to
present labor, through increase of our
manufactures and national improve
ments through their labor. There could
be no over population until the country
Is settled to the extent of its support.
The state of Texas alone, putting ten
persons on each acre, would supply the
whole known population of the world,
and then there would be vacant acres. I'm
der the present competitive system,
probably one half of the improved in
ventlons are not in use from the fact that
the great consuming masses have not the
means to purchase their products. 1t
makes me think, man was speaking OF
the failure of piano mandatory, lay
ing the cause to over production. re-
piled by asking him if he had piano,
and If several of his friends had that in
vention, and If they would like one. He
answered, they would, but they could
not afford cne. In reply, said; sit seems
to me to be under consumption, as the
people desire things the present wage
system will not allow them to purchase"
Our homes are going 20 satisfy the de-
mands of the millionaires as interest. 1t
must be evident to all reformers that we
can receive no relief from either of the
old parties, as the leaders of both are
controlled by the money power. 1t be-
comes plain that relief must come
through the Peoples party, which has
boldly taken the bull and bears Of Wall
street in hand, to stop the speculating
and gambling in the products Of the
people. We want no middle men In our
exchange. GALEN P. ATHERToN.

THE CAUSES AND THE REMEDY.


the series of articles by Fl. A. Higgins in
THE ADVOCATE for the past month or
more.
Aside from their literary merit (Which
alons would insure an interested audi
ence) they show a pretty thorough
knowledge of the condition OF the great
masses of the people at the present time
And however we may differ as to the
causes and the cure, heartily agree with
him In his diagnosis Of the case.
Like Mr.. Higgins, was born and
raised In Republican atmosphere, and
was an ardent Republican for years.
But I was never q "strong partisan"
BY that mean, l never thought that
everything my party did was right, and
everything the other fellow did was
wrong. And when became old enough
to understand something of public af-
fairs, and became convinced that a GER
tain class Of the people was being favored
at the expense of every other class, and
especially Of the producing classes, be-
gan to "kIck over the traces"
And nhen, In 1874, the "speCie re-
sumption" bill passed both Houses of q
Republican Congress, and was approved
by a Republican president, l left the g.
o. p. and joined the gallant little band OF
Greanbackers, who made the fight for
the peoples money in 1880.
But am not writing my autobiog-
raphy. So / will go back to the ques-
tions under discussion.
It seems to me self evident that a
scarcity Of money is at the bottom OF
nearly all our troubles as q people.
While we produce more wealth than
any other nation on earth, we are suffer
ing almost money famine. And why?
Because 1--WE, the people" have been
robbed of our money by vicious class
legislation. Commencing with the ex-
ceptlon clause on the second issue of
greenbacka, crippling and debasing it so
that the gold bugs could manipulate 1t
as they liked, and extending through a
long series of years, making, link by link,
chain with which to bind the produc-
ers Of the country and compel them to
pay tribute to favored few who produce
nothing.
know the politicians and their echos
and organs will cry, "Rot," "Rant," and
"CAlsmity," at this; but they will not try
to dlsprove 1t; for facts are Stubborn
things, and ridicule and abuse are about
all the weapons left them, aud that hurts
no one but the one who uses 1t.
But, to the fair, candid man who
doubts, / would say, look for yourself at
the following acts OF Congress, and ask
yourself IL they do not make just that
kind of chain.
Flrst-The exception clause.
Second--The credit strengthening act,
making the bonds payable In coin.
Thlrd-The act demonetizlng silver, so
that all that immense war debt which
was originally payable In the legal tender
money Of the country became payable In
gold alone.
Fourth-The specie resumption act,
intended to abolish greenbacks and sub
Stitute for them high priced national
bank currency, to be loaned to the "deaT
people" at the highest rate Of interest
that they could extort, while they (the
bankers) only paid per cent. per annum

asleep by out trusted servants that we
had sent to Washington to make laws for
us.
Now, / submit that this Is just what
ails US; and if 1t is, let us look for our
coat where we lost it, and demand Con
gress to undo what Congress has done as
far as possible, and give us an equal
chance in the race. We ask no odds,
only "equal rights for all and special
privileges to none." And we eOiN take
no less.
And, as experience has proven that we
can get no redress through either Of the
old parties, let US elect Congress that
sOiI give us the redress we demand.
Another point in Mr.. Higgins last
letter must notice. He says that the
increase in the money circulation of the
country which the pension bill, sub
treasury plan, and like measures would
create would not necessarily give work to
one idle man.
Now, If this is 80, we have indeed been
"barklng up the wrong tree" (ss old
Dave Crockett would say) and wasting a
vast amount Of energy and wind.
But Is it true?
IL the per capita was increased to $50
of full legal tender money, would it not
put new life into all kinds Of productive
industry and every branch Of trader
Would not every farmer hire more help,
and improve his farm and buildings, as
he can't afford to do now? Would not
the demand for coal, hardware, railroad
supplies, and all kinds Of implements
of labor, and, in fact, every article Of ne
cesslty or luxury that Is produced by
labor, be largely increased, creating an
increased demand for labor of all kinds,
and would not WGges be raised just In
proportion to the increased demand for
labor and the increased cost OF living?
All history proves that when money Is
plenty and In the hands Of the people
the people are prosperous; and when 1t is
scarce, and in the hands Of the usurerS,
the reverse Is the case. Take the history
OF our own country In the sixties. just
before the issue of the greenback money
the nation was well nigh bankrupt. The
soldiers In the field were unpaid, half
clothed and half fed. The people at
home, their wives, mothers and sweet
hearts, were suffering all the woes OF
poverty and want. Gold had fled, like
the coward 1t Is; business was stagnated;
gloom hung over the country; the
country was like man who had been
bled till his veins were empty and life
almost gone.
But the greenback changed all this as il
by magic. The soldiers were paid. They
sent the money home to their families
Trade revived; confidence returned; and
an era of prosperity set in that was moi
broken until contraction became the
policy OF the administration, and the
bondholder got In his fine work, as ]
have shown.
Another case in point Is that Of France
After the Franco German war Of VI
and 70 France was practically bankrupt
The London Times and other leading
papers of the world declared it was i'm
possible for France to ever pay that Inn.
