and never will increase the wealth OF the
world. Whatever gain it's manipulation
brings to one is measured by the loss to
another, while labor causes an increase
Of wealth to one without any loss to
another, and hence increases the total
wealth Of the world.
The true policy for the west and south
is the law Of nature, that each locality
should produce as much raw material az
its soil and climate will permit, and then
manufacture il at home, letting the SUR
plus population Of the globe drift to those
countries which have soil and climate
capable Of supporting the most dense
population. But at present these laws
of nature are set at defiance by the laws
of man in strsining transportation and
finance to maintain the greatest popula
tion in those countries whose soil and
climate are least able to support it; and
this unnatural process is called "politi-
cal economy" by intellectual parties.
It has been the dream Of the west and
south that with free trade they could
get rich raising raw material to sell to
Europe. No wilder dream ever entered
the imagination Of man. With ali Europe,
Russia, India, Africa, Australia and
South America to draw from, Europe is
in q condition to dictate terms and fix
prices. The only possible chance for the
American farmer to fix prices would be
at q time Of universal famine, which is
not likely to occur, and even il it did the
probabilities are that at such time this
country would have little or nothing to
sell.
The proper thing for the south and
west is to ourtail farming and raise no
more raw material than they can work
up or use; then build factories to en-
ploy one half their labor and thus manu-
fscture their own implements and cloth
ing. By so doing it would take much
less money to make exchanges than it
now does when stuff is hauled back and
forth half round the ;globe, and the rate
Of interest would decline. Compound
interest should be absolutely prohibited;
and all interest WhEcb IS payable annually,
or OttspOr, IS compound, and will soon take
the earth to pay it, as shown in our ar
tiole published in the ADVOCATE Sep
tember 6. But il compound interest is
prohibited men will Gbe slow to loan
money. Very true. Then what will
they do with GitH They will not take it
to other countries to loan to any con-
siderable extent, Rs the lRothschilds and
the Bank Of England have already pre-
empted the earth and are seeking other
worlds to conquer. They already have
more loaned than the world can pay in
terest on, and, las before shown, small
capitalists cannot uccessfully loan money
in competition with larger ones. The re-
suit would be that eastern capitalists
would seek the west and south, not to
loan money as at present, but to build
factories to work up the raw material,
thus bringing producer, manufacturer,
distributor and consumer together in
true economy as nature intended.
The whole question hinges upon COM
pound interest. If A should give q note
for 81, 900, payable in twenty years at 10
per cent compound interest, his friends
