PER CAPITA OF CURRENCY.
Mr.. Ward of Kansas City, Takes
Exception to Our Figures
KANSAS CITY. Mo Ian

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 10, '94.
Have you ever analyzed that per
capita circulation statement you are
running? 1t is a roaring, farcical
fake. If you do not believe it. try to
persuade yourself to believe that a
gold, or silver certificate you pay
your grocer, or coal dealer is not a
real, actual, tangible thing, or bill of
money, but merely d phantom SEM
blance, the actual money being real
ly in the U. S. Treasury. BY what
rule OF logic, or arithmetic does Mr..
Dunning deduct from money actuaUy
IN the hands Of the people, money in the
U. 5. Treasury? Mr.. Dunning has
deducted the Implications, gold held
in bullion, etc, taUice. Once from the
total general stock of money, coined
and issued, and again from the
amount of money outside the u. s.
treasury. This is, of course, alto
gether wrong and laughable. Money
out OF the treasury is in the hands OF
the people, hence in circulation. not
in the treasury. We cannot succeed
by making false statements liable to
be controversial
Under the operation of a specie
basis redemption system the gold
and silver held to redeem gold and
silver certificates and greenbacks is
dead, or idle money, but the certif-
Gates and greenbacks themselves are
live, active money and part of the per
capita circulation: this is obvious and
needs no .argumentive proof.
Here is correct statement: the
amount given as in banks, being
every dollar they held on the date in
question. The truth IS bad enouqh.
On September 30. 1892, the amount
OF money coined, stamped and issued
and not in the United States treasury

THE USURERS.
How the People are Robbed by
Them.

HECTOR, Mimi, Jan 9.
HON. IGNAIUS DONNELLY:
would ask your indulgence for a
question that is of general interest
to everybody who is "hard ur" and
must make every cent count without
having it wasted by throwing it into
the Unsuitable nav Of the money
fend. 1t is this: In borrowing mon
sey, can the party letting it keep back
say five per cent as a bonus? For in
/ stance, Mr.. A bOrroWs 81 900 from b:
but B wants not only 10 per cent in
terest, in advance, but he wants a
bonus of five per cent besides, leaving
A only $3.50, while he has to give his
note for 81 900. I think it is a crying
injustice against suffering humanity,
and against the statutes Of the state
Of Minnesota. See chapter %, sec
tions 2,090-1-2, which say such con-
tracts are void and of no effect.
For the benefit of several individu-
ais wish to know what the rulings
! of the court are in the premises. 1
believe it is clearly against the letter
3sof the law for any person to take any
bonus or anything else in excess of 10
per cent per annum for the use of
money. 1t surely ought to satisfy
even Shylock himself in these depres-
sed times to get ten per cent, while
the laborers and tillers of the soil did
not get any per cent at all.
In order to get their rights l wish
to say to all farmers, laborers and
all poor men: stick to one another
through thick and thin; and do not
let anyone persuade you to again help
the plutocrats and usurers with your
vote. That's the point to the whole
business. Money always pulls togeth-
er. Is it not reasonable that if labor
is to accomplish anything it must do
the same? Surely Shylock has no
sympathy with him.
p. A. BURGEsoN.
*
Our advice to the farmers is to
borrow all the money they can get on
the terms stated. The notes and
mortgages SO given are not worth the
paper they are written on. If posi-
BILE have the testimony of a third
party to help prove the facts. The
supreme court of this state for years
over-rode the usury law, on the pre-
tense that while A could not take
commission for lending his own mon
ey, he could take one for loaning BIS
money; and on the other hand B
could not take bonus for lending
his own money but he could for lend
ing AS money!! It was therefore
"tickle me, Tommy, and I'll tickle
you." l was the father of that usury
law, when in the senate many years
ago; and was indignant to see a
great measure of protection for the
people overthrown by a bench of judg-
es elected by that very people. And
/ got the alliance to raise such hull
la-balloo year after year, that the
court, few years since, was compel
led to take the back track and en-
force the law. And now any such
loan as is described by our cores
pondent would be knocked galley
west by any court in the state.
Help the REPRESENTATIVE breth-
ren, to big, big circulation, and we
will crack whip that will make all
the skalawags in the state behave
themselves. I'D.

Ward, while the great fight was on
in congress against silver, the de-
monetization of which would largely
increase the debts of every debtor in
the land, rushed into the arena to
urge that silver should be demone-

Of congress taking that course as

it should be done as quickly as posi-

OLD TIME DISHES.

Some Famous Recipes From New England
Kitchens and Their Cooks.
To prepare Rhode Island baked beans
put one quart of beans to soak in cold
water over night. In the morning
pour off the water and cover with fresh
cold water; put on the fire and let them
come to the boil slowly, then simmer
until quite soft, but not broken. Then
pour off the water and put them into a
baking dish with boiling water enough
to moisten. Add pinch of dry mus
tard, some salt and two tablespoons of
molasses. Take about half pound of
fat salt pork, boiled and scored, and
put in the middle of the dish. Set in
the oven, covered, and let them cook
slowly all day. About two hours be-
fore night uncover and brown.
For sponge cake or diet bread take
twelve eggs and the weight of the
eggs in sugar and half the weight in
flour; one lemon, juice and rind. Beat
the yolks and whites very light; beat
the sugar into the yolks. Next add the
juice and grated peel of lemon. then
the flour; lastly the beaten whites
put in these very lightly. Have tins
with perpendicular sides, lined with
buttered paper, and steady fire. The
cake should be eaten the day it is
made.
For "brown pudding" use three cups
of flour, one cup of milk, one cup of
molasses, one cup suet, chopped fine,
two cups of raisins, one teaspoOnful OF
powdered mace and cinnamon, and two
of powdered cloves and salt, one tea
spoonful of soda dissolved in little OF
the milk. After mixing pour into a
tightly covered and well-buttered tin
mold. Tie this in strong towel and
boil hard for three hours and half.
Citron and currants may be added. A
hot liquid sauce, favored with lemon
or brandy, is nice to eat with this The
