THE HOUSEHOLD.
Help One Another.
REV. T. DE WITT TALMAGE.

REV. T. DE WITT TALMAGE.
Paul advances the theory, "Beal
ye one another's burdens, and SC
fulfill the law of Christ"
Here's a text for the New Year,
"a text to make the New Year a
really happy one. How shall you
carry it out7 By splitting up the
burdens into fragments,-you take
part of mine and l take part OF
yours, and each one will take part
of the others, and so will fulfill the
law of Christ.
One of the ways toward this end
is encouragement.
Encourage the merchant. If he
have superior style of goods, tell
him so.
Encourage newspaper men. Be
affable to them when you have no
ak to grind,
Encourage mechanics. If one
has done a job well, tell him it is
splendidly done.
Encourage the farmers. There
is no class of people in this country
who want your sympathy more
just now than farmers.
Encourage the doctors. You
praise the doctor when he brings
you up from an awful crisis of
disease, but do you praise the
doctor when through skillful treat
ment of the incipient stages of
disease he keeps you from sinking
down to the awful crisis9
Encourage the lawyers.
Encourage the teachers in our
public schools.
Encourage all invalids by telling
them how many you have known
with the same ailments who got
well,
Encourage all starting in life, by
yourself becoming reminiscent.
Such is happiness, and the road
to a Happy New Year.-Demorest's
Magazine.

Another Scheme.

The following bit of information
was given out by Secretary Carlisle
in his speech before the Finance
Committee. Read it carefully
'During the course of the hear
ing Mr.. Carlisle disclosed to the
committee the information that
under decision of the Attorney
General the government is now
liable to claims from national banks
for over taxation, running back
over a period of thirty years. He
recommended that for the purposes
of taxation of one-half per cent on
the bank circulation it should be
expressly provided that banks
should not be relieved from the
payment of this tax on such of their
own notes as might happen to be in
their own possession in the ordi-
nary course Of business, not present
ed or held for redemption. By a
decision of the Attorney General,
he said, it appeared that the pres
ent law was defective in this respect,
and the government was subject to
claim for the return of all taxes col
lected on the currency of the bank
while in its own possession"
Here is a scheme to rob the peo-
pie of several millions. The law
provides for a tax on all national
bank issues, which was intended to
mean all national bank currency
furnished by the government, no
matter what the banks did with it.
Now these plunderers go to the At
tOrney General and have this case
virtually decided before they bring
a suit. 1t is one of the most in
famous tricks that could be per-
petrated. The worst feature of the
case lies in Secretary Carlisle's
asking the Committee to frame a
bill that will virtually admit that
the banks should be permitted to
make this raid 0n a bankrupt
treasury.
Such proceedings is enough to
make the people rise up as one man
aud drive the whole mercenary
gang from the borders of the
country.-National Watchman.

RISING SUN, CECIL COUNTY, MD. FRIDAY DEC


of the world. When interest is
due the debtors are compelled to
apply to this monopoly of "final
redemption" money for further
loses or sacrifice their securities or
holdings on a falling market, and
this is what has been going on for
more than twenty years. The
wreckage it has caused and is caus-
ing may be partially learned by
consulting Dunn & Co., and Brad
streets. From ten to thirteen thous-
and bankrupts annually, aggregat-
ing hundreds of millions, partially
tell the story of the money disaster
that stalks rough shod over the
industry of the country. This i'm
portant question of money monop
oily is susceptible of far greater
elaboration than we have room to
treat it.
The superficial view of the class
of financial students referred to in
the beginning Of this article, mis-
take the commission part of money
dealing for the more weighty in
fluence which is exercised by the
money monopolist. The bonanza
farmer of the Dakotas, places his
crop in the shipping elevator and
receives a bill of lading. That bill
Of lading serves him as a record
and as credit in bank, and no
money payment probably is re-
quired till the wheat reaches the
consumers in England. But these
Intermediates are all commission
men, the banker who furnishes
credit for money to keep the pro-
duct moving if necessary at any
stage of its transit, the transporta-
tion companies over and and water
all charge up their commissions
against the cargo, let the price be
what it may. They are affected
but little and are but little con-
cerned: These commissions which
we call expenses of shippers, hand
lerers, bankers, brokers, etc., must
all come out of the money the grain
sells for, every cent of W hich is paid
in the end by the consumer. The
transportation company's claim,
bank accommodations, brokers'
fees, &C., must all be deducted from
thp money which the consumer
pays for the bread. The various
transactions before reaching him
may all be done on paper, but the
cool cash must be put down by the
consumer, and if cash is scarce ana
wages low, there is but small pay
for the producer of wheat in the
Dakotas: All Of these commits
slons or expenses must be taken out
of the price if it absorbs the whole.
before the original producer is paid.
and we have seen the consumers
ability to pay determines the price
of the article and the money mo-
nopolist who holds in his hand the
power to contract the volume of
currency exerts almost a life and
death power over trade in its man
fold branches.
When men talk glibly and loosely
about the unimportanee of money
and speak Of credit, checks, bills of
exchange and the comparatively
small amount of money necessary
to transact business, they don't
know what they are talking about
and haven't learned the A, B, G of
money:
