SOUTHERN MONEY MAKERS.

The people of Floyd county, Georgia,
think they need more money and they
have evolved very neat scheme Of
issuing interest-bearing county bonds
of small denominations designed to cir
culate as money. AS to whether su ch
issues would conflict with the banking
laws of the United States or be subject
to the 10 per cent. tax now imposed on
the issues of State banks we need not
now stop to consider. Attorney. General
OLNEy has rendered negative decision
on the first point aud no decision at all
on the second, though he has winked
very hard at it. whatever the winks of
attorney-generalship may mean. As
another of those excrescences Of Popu-
lism, however, which clings fondly to
the view that the Government can create
money at will, this plan, which simply
proposes that the county shall do what
the Government won't do, is interesting
to the public at large and may be in
structive to the Floyd-countyites.
1t never seems to have occurred to
such inhationists as our Southern
brothers, who want more Government
money, or to our Western kind
red, who want more silver
money, that the per capita
circulation of the country does not reg
ulate the amount of money available for
each ones use (; that it makes no differ
ence whether there is $3.50 or $50 per
capita if man has neither his labor nor
the products of his labor to exchange for
money. IL can't reasonably be claimed
that the South hasn't enough of a money
medium when its bank vaults are full
of currency. The trouble is not lack Of
money-it is lack of confidence, aud
money holders won't let go of what they
have. Southerners feel the need of
money more acutely now, too. because of
the enormous shrinkage in value OF
their cotton crop which, because of it's
low price. is drawing to them nearly
$50, 900, 900 less than il would have done
at last years prices.
As to this particular plan of the Floyd
countyites. it has also apparently not
occurred TO the advocates of the interest.
bearing bonds that If they are good for
their face value they will very quickly
disappear from circulation aud hide in
the safes of investors. On the other
hand IL they are not good the task of get
ting them into circulation will he ex-
tremely difficult IL not altogether i'm
possible.

bill and created a mongrel measure
which even today Is denied an
honorable parentage, and which the head
of the Democratic party, President
CLEVELAND, denounced as a monstrous
thing and pertidious betrayal OF
principle and party. Yet before
the ink was dry upon the
bill the President allowed it to receive
his acquiescence and then notified the
world that this business uncertainty was
to continue aud tariff meddling go on
until the Democracy finally should
blunder into tariff legislation that
should suit it.
Business is again to be overturned and
paralysis is to again still the wheels and
stop the looms of industry if the De-
mocracy gains possession of government
again. "We have only taken the first
STEP" says Mr.. WILSON to his English
admirers. eve are only at the begin
ning," was CLEvELANDs echo.
Not content with the disaster wrought
by the fear of free trade and by the unset.
tied conditions attendant upon prolonged
tariff tinkering, the uncertainty is to be
still further prolonged and the whole
system of trade conditions is again to be
overturned if the Democracy wins this
fall.
The Republican party, however, pledges
itself through its leaders that if control
is given to them no further tariff
meddling shall be had for three years
and that then the tariff will be altered
only in response to business needs and
after definite policy has been decided
upon that shall be permanent.
Which will you choose?
Will you follow the Democracy into
untried and experimental paths, again
bringing about the uncertainty that has
paralyzed the nation for the past 1S
months, or will you vote TO
restore to power the party which
has well-defined and we'll
tried policy, which has made this the
most prosperous nation on the earth, and
which will again bring cessation
from these attacks upon business con-
ditions and give our exhausted
system chance to recuperate?
VIII you vote to continue the agitation
and to unsettle business or 10 put stop
to tariff tinkering and return to pros
perity by permanent settlement of the
question and its removal from politics
for score of years? -.
The only possible permanent settle
ment OF it by the Democracy lies in free
trade.
Do we want any more of free trade
after what we have experienced of free
trade wages and free trade conditions
during the past year aud half?
II we do, let us vote for the Demo-
cratic nominees for Congress. II we
do not. let us put the Republicans back
in power by so overwhelming vote as
to break up and destroy the party
which is responsible for our present dis
tress and which has no remedy to offer
and no settled policy to carry out.

One important thing which manufac-
turers and others should remember is that
they should advertise to get customers.
Millers frequently advertise In journals
which go TO millers; insurance companies
in papers which circulate chiefly among
insurance men, and manufacturers in
periodicals which circulate principally
among manufacturers, etc. Neither of
these accomplishes the object In view, be-
cause they reach, principally, readers In
their own line OF itors,
not customers. An advertiser should
place his announcement where 1t will
reach the men who purchase his wares.
