GOVERNMENT BANKS.

The Money Question Ia the Interest Prob
lem, Governmental Banking is Its SOlu-
tiOn.
The imperative necessity of eman-
cipating the American people from
bank domination is daily becoming
more apparent, and the Importance of
this issue is being speedily pushed to
the front by the encroachments of a
relentless power controlled only by
avarice and greed.
Never in the history of any nation
has such organized strength been de-
veloped, having in view the enslave-
ment of the masses, as the banking
power of this country exhibits at the
present time.
The avenues of popular intelligence
are closely guarded and every possible
effort made to keep the voters in
absolute ignorance of the facts con-
corning affairs which are of the most
vital import in connection with govern
ment.
No king, queen nor emperor, having
absolute authority, would permit as
dangerous an influence to acquire such
gigantic proportions in their dominion
as the people have permitted to grow
up in our midst
1t is only to be accounted for from
the fact that an advantage has been
taken, by designing individuals, of the
inherent respect entertained by the
millions for personal liberty.
This, coupled with the time-honored
regard for the rights of property, has
permitted the esta blishment of an oil
garchy in our midst founded on the
idea of acquiring wealth, regardless OF
how, and retaining it regardless Of re-
suits to the public.
The power of banking institutions
for acquiring wealth has never been
fully comprehended by the people.
Even among those who have riven the
subject deep and careful study there is
often the greatest lack Of conception
on this point. One most common error
in the minds Of many is that the
amount of money per capita is the
basis on which to make all ealcula.

THE FALLAoY in COIN.

There Is No Primary Money In Circulation
Why ID There Any Price at All?
Populists in general feel friendly
toward that novel and entertaining
advocate of the RECOMMENDATION of sill
yer, known as Coins Financial School,
on account Of the disturbing effect it is
having upon the two old parties and
the gold basis We have all enjoyed
the fright and confusion into which it
is throwing the old parties as political
organizations and the worrying which
II is giving the millionaire gold-bugs;
but, at the same time, there are few
populists who have read the book who
have not noticed the glazing fallacy
which pervades It. This is its teaching
that the amount of metal or primary
money in existence Is what determines
prices, the amount Of credit or paper
money in circulation having no inAu-
ence at all in the matter. Populists,
especially the old greenbackers, good
naturedly laugh at this, because they
know better. They know that prices
cannot possibly be affected by the
material out Of which money is
made, but by it's volume. All
schools Of finance Except "Coin's'O
are governed by this fact; hence comes
the Rold.bug's opposition to silver
coinage or any imitation Of the paper
currency, because either would initiate
prices, making him give up more
money in exchange for values. On
this novel proposition in finance, that
prices are determined only by the vol
ume of metal money in circulation, re-
gardless Of the volume Of paper money,
'Coin" ingeniously bases his argument
for silver coinage. 1t serves him, too,
as powerful fulcrum upon which to
ply the lever with which he is hosting
the corner of the house of the gold
bugs The on-looking populists enjoy
seeing the hosting, because of the
shaking up and CONSERVATION which
ensue, but there is not one of them
that would give his Endorsement as a
student of finance to the peculiar argu-
ment used. They are quite willing,
however, in the mood of st. Chrysos-
tom, that "Coin" should go on argu-
tentatively deceiving the benighted
worshipars of the golden calf for their
good, in the belief that the means are
justified by the end.
The fall in prices since 1893 is not
wholly due to the stopping of the coin
age of silver in November of that year,
as our friend "Coin" argues, but only
in part. At the rate at which silver
was being coined when stopped, the
loss to the circulation in consequence
of stopping to March 1, 1895, was s4O,-
OOO,OO but the loss by contraction of
other kinds of currency in the same
time was s153,OOO, 900, or nearly four
times as great. So that silver's share
in reducing prices, as compared with the
rest of the currency contraction, has
been only about fifth. Well informed
financial reformers are all aware of
these facts, but they all wish "Coln"
success.-Iowa Farmers Tribune.

established depriving them of this
privilege, the most dangerous ana
threatening power which now menaces
the very foundation Of our government
would be 0verthrown.
With increased circulation, however
much It is to be desired, and without
government banks, the great and
threatening evil continues to exist and
with each succeeding year increases in
strength.
An increased circulation is legiti-
mate demand and must not be aban-
doned, but government banking must
be recognized as the most important
issue In connection with our financial
interests.
ItShould not be overlooked as the
leading question, but must take prece-
dence of every other issue, for If right
is ever to prevail this question must be
settled, and If liberty is to live it must
be settled right. Chicago Express.

ONE argument used in favor of a
gold money is, that should the gov
eminent go down and we had only a
paper money, it would be worthless.
This is true, but did you ever think as
to where the deed to your property
comes from? Do you once suppose
that your deed would be worth the
paper it is written on in the event the
United States should become the prov
ince Of another country? There is as
much sense in having the deed of
your farm contain intrinsic value to
she worth of it as in demanding dol
lar with hundred cents OF silver OF
gold.

Friends of the Santa Fe, and they
include most Of the people in Kansas,
have reason to feel more encouraged
regarding the final adjustment Of the
roads difficulties than at any time
since they began. The fact that Mr..
A A. Robinson has taken the matter
in hand means that something will be
done and the road will be put on It's
feet again. State Journal.
Why should anyone care whether
the road ever gets on its feet againP
he road Is running as usual. The
freight and passenger charges are the
same and there is no probability that
that either would be reduced by the re-
ceivers turning it oyer to new set Of
managers. AS for the friends Of the
Santa Fe, probably the road would DO
better off If 1t would cut their friend
ship. While pass may not cost much
intrlncally speaking, yet extra men
have to be employed during legislative
sessions to fill out and mail them to
the friends" Of the road. Kansas
has been a much better friend to the
Santa Fe than it has to Kansas. AS
for the individuals Of the state, there
is not one person in a thousand that
cares a snap whether the stock
holders of the road ever get one cent
from it. Such talk from the Journal
reads more like a paid local than an
editorial in one Of the most independ-
ant papers In the state.
The law Of 1878 which made gold the
unit of value is as follows: THAT the
gold coins of the United States shall be
q one dollar piece, which at the stand
ard and weight of twenty-five and
eight-tenths grains shall be the unite
of value" Before that time the sill
yer dollar was demonetized to this
extent, that it could not and would
not pass for more than its bullion
value If the government did not prom

the government keeps all paper money
at par with gold. The Mexican sill
yer dollar Is really worth more than
our silver dollar, yet one Of ours will

We reproduce the above to show how

was a depleted treasurey. The repub-
