BIOGRAPHICAL.

Elias Stevenson was born Nov. 4,
1856, in town of Sheldon, Houston
county, Minnesota. He worked on
his fathers farm and attended the
district school till 1876 when he
moved from there to the town of
Vineland, Polk Co., Mimi, Nov. 3,
of that year. He then started out
for himself, took homestead and
bought 100 acres railroad land,
taught school in winter and farmed
in summer. Finally sold farm ma
chinery and had grand success at
that, and in 1880 located at Fisher,
Mimi, kept general store and farm
machinery. Was Postmaster and
Mayor for several years. Married
Miss Oleana Hang in 1885. In 1886
moved to Crookston, and since that
time has been agent for the CONT
mental Insurance Co., making a spe-
cialty of farm business.
He was republican until 1890
when he helped to organize Crook
ston alliance No. 64S of which he is
the present secretary, and a strong
populist.
Mr.. S. is in good circumstances
owning $50 acres of land, and is not
seeking any office.

$1,000 6S,71S.41

OF this amount the Official report
claimed that $712,416,883.3 were in
the U. S. treasury; and 1851 ,55l,-
S35. IL were in circulation among the
people as money. It will be seen
that the figures do not greatly differ
from those of the report of Aug. l.,
1898.
The U. S. treasurer, however, ad-
mits that the certificates of deposit
are simply representatives of money
in the treasury, which cannot be
counted twice, and hence, with a
sweep of his pen he reduces the ag-
gregate from $2,O99, 1868, 718.47 to $1,-
CSC. O94, 42O.47! Why then were they
included, except to deceive the peo-
ple. who will read the report and not
the explanations.
Mr.. Dunning first shows, from the
treasurer's report, that the gold and
silver bullion, held by the U. S. treas
ury amounts to SIG, 439, 1888. This is
not money, any more than pork or
wheat would be. 1t is a commodity;
stamped bars of metal and cannot
be called circulation. This reduces
the metallic money in the treasury
from $27s, 54a, $3.50 to 1902, 100, 997 .36.
In the next place the estimates OF
the gold in circulation is mere guess
work. No allowance is made for the
amount used in the arts. The Com
mercial and Financial Chronicle OF
Feb. 9, 1889, vouched for by the sec
rotary of the treasury as good au-
thority, says there are at least $685.

The Real Per Capita Circulation of Monev
in the United States is:

accounted for. '"This is a big cut in.
to $3.50, O63, sos. The same authority
shows that on January l, 1888, the
treasury claimed to hold 1924, 773, 677
of gold; but deducting gold certif-
Gates issued against it ''only about one
hundred millions can be tou,edr' The
same writer continues,-'not one
individual in every hundred receives
in ordinary business transactions a
gold certificate or gold coin once in
twelve months.'
Mr.. Dunning than proceeds to
show that the entire silver coinage
of country wears out in thirty
years. John Sherman confirms this.
The treasury claims that every silver
dollar coined since 1878 is still in cir
culation and eight million dollars be-
sides; and that no part of the sub
sidiary silver coin has disappeared:
although the government has been
claiming for years and now claims
that there are $5,916, 59O.47 of frac-
tional currency,-paper "halfs' and
"quarters'' and ten cent pieces, float
ing around while every body knows
that not one has been seen,-except
as curiosity, twenty years.
What has become of it? LOST sunk
in seas and rivers, burned up in ho-
tells, worn out. And congress de-
clared June q, 1879, that $S,375 1884
more had been lost or destroyed.
Fourteen millions in all out of $685.
10000 issued vanished. And is not
the same thing true of the silver and
gold coin? And yet this fraudulent
government of ours, to help the
plutocrats, claims that the people
have got it all!
But this isn't the worst of it. The
law requires the national banks to
hold large amount of money in re-
serve for the protection of their de-
positors. This is not circulating
among the people. It cannot be in
two places at once. How much is it?
1t is 1888, III, 465. Then the state
banks and savings banks also have
to keep a reserve of from ten to
twenty-five per cent. Mr.. Dunning
estimates this, Cat ten per cent?, as
1888, 427, 242. Then there are 3,647
banks that have not reported. Place
the reserve says Mr.. Dunning at $10,
900 each, and it gives $36, 40, 900; or a
grand total of bank reserves of
$6O3, OOs, 7O7, which must be deducted
from the 81, 1897 ISL, 1886 of total, nom
inal circulation, leaving but 1884,
543, 1913 for the use Of the people!!!
Why did not our lying servants at
Washington tell us all this when
they took the trouble to figure up
the per capita circulation at $24.O2?
How particular they were about
those two cents!
Here are Mr.. Cummings concluding
figures as to the real currency circu-
lation, of the United States:

that those bright ones ever toiled? Yes.
y,esl These packed the Chinese teaboxes,
and through missionary instruction es-
capped into glory. These sweltered on
southern plantations, and ons night
after the cotton picking went mp as
white as if they had never been black.
Those died of overtoil in the Lowell
carpet factories, and these in Manches-
Der mills. Those helped build the pyra-
mids, and these broke away from work
on the day Christ was bounded out Of
Jerusalem. No more towers to build;
heaven in done. No more garments to
weave; the robes are finished. No more
harvests to raise; the gamers are full.
Oh, sons and daughters of toll, arise
We and depart, for that is your restl
Scovill McCallum, a boy of my Sun
day school while dying said to his
mother, Don't cry, but sing, sing
"There is rest for the weary,
There is rest for the weary"
Then, putting his wasted hand over his
heart, said, There is rest for me. "
A Glorious Consolation.
Oh, ye whose locks are wet with the
dews of the night of grief; ye whose
hearts are heavy because those well
known footsteps sound no more at the

shall use no other than 'StroDg's 3 Ply" |
