Breaking Banks.

Fourteen banks go up in one day is
the announcement in the morning
papers recently, with others trembling
on the ragged edge; and this is the
outcome of the "best financial system
the world ever saw !" Such boastine
with such mockiug results is an outrage
to common sense The boasted system
of national banks founded on govern
ment credit is a system to contract the
currency at the will of the money
oligarchy, which is inevitably followed
by bankruptcy and failures in business
The system is little else than wind and
the thin membrane of "credit" which
has maintained it is now bursting and
ripping to shreds. The System" is
composed of little else than air.
The collapse of the Cordage wind
bubble sent $30,000,0OO up in gas OF
wind. 1t was only the development Of
the loss which had previously taken
place. The great saudedrim of the
money trust which control the finances
of the world reaped the benefit some
time ago. When the wind and watered
values are placed on the market and
sold to confding people for good
money, is the time the mischief is done
In after times the mischif is developed.
The debt is first made, the money is
contracted, the price Of the products
which were expected to be realized
from that debt goes down and the
property on which the debt was placed
is swept into the hands of the gamblers
who engineer the scheme.
While this infamous swindle is going
on the gamblers seek to divert the
attention of the public and befog them
by crying out for the sale of bonds to
restore confidence and stop the jugger
naut of ruin which has been started, a
trap to catch the unsuspecting.
The bold effrontery and gall OF this
crowd in demanding the sale of bonds
by the government to stay the effects Of
their own evil work caps the climax OF
impudent daring since the buccaneers
roved the Spanish main.

A Tennis Tea,

morning pounding in the net-stakes and

rug from the library floor and spread it
under one of the elms, then placed
wicker table for the tea tray, and here
and there | set about wicker easy chairs
and lawn crickets. Mrs. Parker pre-
pared for me bewitching tea tray
Mrs. Parker is from Hold Hen land"
and this business of tea on the lawn
reminded her OF "'Ome, it do indeed,
Miss Connie"
The tray was laden with silver set
and a dear little alcohol lamp and
kettle. Mrs. Parker made some cara
way cookies and perigord sandwiches,
besides pile of wonderful toasted and
buttered mullins, tied up in dainty
napkin to keep warm. Behind the tea
table, in big white willow chair, fut-
tering with ribbons from every knob,
sat Josie. She was spring poem in
pink Bingham; her blonde head bare,
but huge, rutfly, chiffon parasol hoisted
for protection, and her white hands
deftly manipulating the kettle and cups.
The guests came early and STAYED
late; even the dowagers who came to
make calls on aunt were easily persuad.
ed to leave their victorias for cup of
Josie's tea. Spencer Bishop almost
earned smile from that young woman
for passing cups without spilling
drop; and Mrs Parker's seed cakes and
mullins vanished like mist before the
morning sun. The governor himself
came across the lawn to see Mr.. Bishop

QUESTIONS OF THE DAY.
The Carnival of Wealth.

The following statement is taken
from a carefully prepared article. by
Rufus w. Wilson, printed in the April
number of the New Era. 1t contains
proof of the economic condition in this
country that can only be considered
with feelings of alarm:
To-day this nation possesses not only
the greatest number of rich men, but
also the richest of any on the globe. A
list of Americas ten richest men, with
the sums they are worth, would be
made as follows: VIM. Waldorf Astor,
S150,000,OO0; Astor has sworn
allegiance to Victoria and become a
subject of the British crown.-
Ed. Jay Gould. s1O0,0OO,00O;
John D. Rookie feller, 90,O00,-
600; Cornelius Vanderbilt, S9o,000,-
600 VIM. K. Vanderbilt, $4,000, 600;
John Jacob Astor S70,000,000; Henry
NJ. Flagler, $6O,O0O00O; John l,
Blair, $50 900, 900; Leland Stanford,
$50, 100000 Coils 7. huntington,
S5O,O00,O00.
The fortunes of these ten men foot
up the studendous total of $790,000,-
600, a sum the vastness of which battles
human comprehension. The origin of
these great fortunes furnishes abundant
food for thought. The wealth of the
two Astors is due to the rise in value of
the immense holdings of real estate in
New York, secured by the founder of
their house. The fortunes of the two
Vanderbilts were made in the construc.
ton and operation of railroads, which
have greatly enhanced in value since
they came to them by inheritance. The
methods by which Jay Gould's wealth
was acquired are too we'll known to
impel recital. The fortunes of Rookie
Teller and Flagler were made in the oil
trade. and those of Blair, Stanford and
Huntington in the construction and
operation of railroads. Besides those
already named, there are over one
thousand individuals and estates in the
United States worth above $40, 100000
each. The following list, though
doubtless incomplete, can be regarded
as in the main correct:

should be dissolved in two or three
tablespoOnfuls of cold water and added
to the wetting with a teaspoonful of
salt, and the -four then stirred in with
wooden spoon until the dough is of
the proper consistency.
When l use compressed yeast never
"set felment" over night
After adding the dissolved yeast and
salt TO the wetting stir in flour until
the dough is stiff enough, then turn it
| unto the moulding board, knead ten or
fifteen minutes, and put it to rise. In
three hours it is light enough to form
into loaves, put in pans and again set to
rise. In an hour from the time it is
put in the pans it will be light enough
to bake.
Under ordinary conditions bread mix
ed with compressed yeast should be
baked and out of the oven in five hours
from the time its ingredients are stirred
together.
HOW TO KEEP COMPRESSED YEAST.
The liability of compressed yeast to
spoil in short time by exposure is the
objection frequently made to it adoption.
But a similar objection can, with
equal propriety, be made to the use of
fresh fish, fowl and Of meat generally.
And as large proportion of what are
called "perisbable' articles of food re-
quire to be handled for their perfect
preservation, even more carefully than
compressed yeast, this objection is more
imaginary than real.
Last August at Chautauqua I remov.
ed the tin foil from several cakes of
compressed yeast, put them in glass
fruit jar, covered them with cod water,
screwed the cap on the jar, and placed
the jar in the refrigerator. On the
tenth day thereafter l poured the water
from the jar and used the yeast for
making bread. AS far as | could dis
cover it was in perfect condition.
| cite these instances merely to show
that compressed yeast can be kept
considerable length of time without
spelling, and that even great extremes
of heat and cold are not necessarily
fatal to it, Housekeepers can rely that
as long as compressed yeat remains firm
and has berry smell it is fit for use,
but the fresher it can be had the better
it is for breadmaking.

qua School.

AuubNCs thic W OHPANo
sion may be charged the creation OF
this carnival of wealth. The land laws
of America are doubtless the worst in
existence. In no country has posterity
been so plundered of its inheritance.
Over two hundred and fifty millions Of
acres being in the hands of railroads,
aliens and spectators. Just how to
regain this lost empire and restore it to
its rightful owners is problem which
the Peoples Party is determined to
solve Transportation which includes
the telegraph and telephone, is en-
trenched behind the most Infamous laws
that ever disgraced the statute books Of
any government. The legalized lar
cenies which these corporations are
guaranteed, the privilege of levying
tribute without redress which they
have secured, and the boldness with
which they new defy the popular will
are questions that the Peoples Party
alone present definite plan Of equitable
adjustment. The financial conditions
of the country are also the outcome of
vicious and corrupt Legislation which
continues to intensity with each recur-
ring session of Congress. The power
of money to Cypress is now recognized
in every section of the country. and a
demand for immediate relief is coming
up from all quarters. The question
now is, how shall the Peoples Party
proceed in its efforts to bring about
these necessary reforms ; shall an attack
be made all along the lines or shall our
forces be concentrated upon one point !?
This is an important problem and calls
for careful consideration. In our judg
ment the financial question is both
naturally aud logically the first to dis
pose Of, for the following reasons if for
none other. IF the land question is
settled satisfactorily and the laws
governing finance aud transportation
remain as now but little benefit will
lnure to the people.
Again, if both the land and trans
portation questions are disposed of and
the power which now attaches to
money is undisturbed, the real benefits
will be transitory, and the monied plu-
tocracy will continue to reign, as now,
supreme. In the disposal Of the land
and transportation questions, as de-
manded by the Peoples Party, the
volume and status of money is the gov
erning factor. Con6scation is obnox-
ious to our people, and the question of
ownership by purchase includes the
money whereby this ownership may be
attained. is it not wise to provide
for the money before it is pledged? Is
it not the part of honesty and good
judgment to demonstrate first the ways
and means of providing funds before
going to extremes of making prepara-
tons fer vast outlays. We favor each
and every plank in the Peoples Party
platform, and will make as vigorous a
contest as possible for them, but deem
it wise and prudent to dispose of the
financial proposition frst.-National

In the possibility OF amassing such
large fortunes lies the secret of the
UNEQUAL distribution of the fruits OF
labor seen on every hand. In the laws
which permit such vast accumulations
of wealth in the hands of few, is found
the prime cause for nearly all the dis
tress, dissatisfaction and business dis
may that is so apparent all over the
nation, The special privileges upon
which ninety per cent of these fortunes
we're built may be found in the laws
governing land, transportation and
