INDUSTRIAL UNION.

Shall All Glasses of Industrial Workers
Hold . Conference and Form . Union3
The st. Louis conference demon
strated that the industrial people of
this country were substantially unit,
not only in the essential subjects, but
in the technical methods of reform.
Why therefore should there not be or
ganized grand central industrial un-
ion, in which all of the legitimate avo-
cations of the country shall have place
and in which all local organizations
shall be factors, to formulate declar-
alton of principles satisfactory to all
of them?
In such convocation some pre- con-
ceived ideas by advanced thinkers
would of course find sepulcher. The
pet theories of some of our iconoclasts
would be laid upon the table, but the
pressing needs of immediate relief to
oppressed labor, to languishing pro-
duction and to mortgaged hometown
ers might be met.
All who are interested in the reforms
necessary to the prosperity Of real
workers, as contra-distinguished from
the boodlers who find place in many Of
the industrial organizations of the
country, can easily find common
ground of agreement, when brought to-
gether.
We are. persuaded that in vacation Of
politics no political campaign is
on-would be the proper thine to organ
ize such a nniop Missouri State
Union.

PoPULIsT MONETARY SYSTEM.

Cold Silver and Paper-None Of Them Re-
deemable In the other.
A. J. Cunningham, of Martin county,
Ind, writes:
ITO settle a dispute, what kind of a
monetary system does the peoples
party propose? Is it in favor of MAX
ing government paper money that shall
be irredeemable, but that is to be re-
ceived back by the government in reve-
nues?'
Of course the only authentic answer
that can be given to our esteemed cor
respondent is a reference to the peoples
party national PLATFORM; but we sup
pose what is desired is the opinion of
the Progressive Farmer on the subject
AS we understand it, the peoples
party proposes that the government
alone shall issue the money, whether
metal or paper; that this money shall
be a full and equal legal tender, each
dollar fully capable of performing any
money function of which any other
dollar is capable; that this money
shall all be redeemable, equally re-
deemable, at the pleasure of the hold

of money, but in whatever substance
any person may desire to exchange for
it, and by the municipal, county, state
and national governments in taxes and
revenues-in all obligations the citizens
may be placed under to these govern
ments, or these different branches of
government to each other; and that
the amount Of this money kept in cir
culation shall be regulated by law at q
fixed sum, not to be less than $50 per
capita
OF this system we invite the closest
scrutiny, and we defy the world and
John Sherman to show wherein it
would not be good, safe and sound in
q stable government like ours, perfect
" equitable to all, insuring stability Of
prices, giving everybody chance, and
guaranteeing general prosperity. It
would knock out plutocracy. and the
money hoarder, cornerer and Spectator
would find his vocation gone. And so
would the note, bond and mortgage

THERE'S MILLIONS IN IT.

What the New York Bankers are After
They see Millions Of Profit In New Issue
Of Bonds.
When the big banks of New York
city spend hours through their respec-
tive presidents in trying to make the
government see the advantage of a
bond issue they are looking for millions
in profits. There are to-day in the city
twenty banks who could in an hours
time pour golden stream of $50 900,
600 into the sub-treasury vaults. Sat
urday's average statement for the week
from the associated banks told of $72,
254. 100 in specie in the hands of the
banks. Twenty-Five of the banks held
fully nine-tenths of this, and they are
the rich downtown banks clustering
about the sub-treasury.
The gold is not worth a penny more
in foans than paper money: in fact,
there is not one borrower in hundred
who would not make an objection if
the coin was handed over. This gold
would come out as fast as porters could
handle the bags if the government
would offer in exchange 'bond-let it
be as proposed, a per cent. 10-year
bond, with premium which should
make it net 3 per cent. This would
make the selling price 11114, so that for
the $50, ZOO. 900 in bonds the banks
would be required to pay over $55, $50,
900 in coin.
What would then happen? Any ma
tional bank may deposit United States
bonds and draw from the government,
with the bonds making the guarantee
of the government good upon them,
national bank notes to the amount of
80 per cent, so that at once the bond
buyers would have $45,OO0,0O0 in cash
back in the vaults from which the gold
had just been taken. This money is
just as good as any for any business
man to take in loans, and it would
promptly go out in exchange for gilt
edge paper in mortgages, on stock col
lateral and all the other handy forms OF
security known to the banking world.
Now, taking the average 6 per cent.
which banks get through the busy
winters and the reduced interest &C
cepted in summer, it is fair to calculate
the income of the money on loan at
per cent. The government pays its in.
terest quarterly, so that at the end OF
the first three months after the loan
had been made the government would
hand over $5OO,O0O in interest, or one
quarter of the 100000 which would
be the yearly interest on $5O,0O0,000 at
4 per cent This money would at once
go to the loaning pile and bringing in
it's share of the per cent. interest
There would be losses, there would be
the government taxes, but there would
be the compound interest to earn income
upon.
Suppose the bankers favorite plan
was accepted by the government, and
that start was made on July l next
There would be a transfer from vault
to sub-treasury Of s55, $50, 900 in gold
while deposited to the credit Of the ad.
vancing banks there would be $50, 000,'
900 in bonds locked up in Washington
upon which S45, OOO,OO in crisp new cir.
culation notes would be issued. Then
upon the bank books would appear an
account something like this:
