We are undoubtedly upon the
threshold of an era Of prosperity.
Blessed with every favor that heav
en- could bestow. America should
be the happiest and the most pros
porous country the sun has ever
shone upon. There should not in
reason be in all this fair land a man
favored with health and common
intelligence whose dwelling is not
blessed with plenty. Let US hope
that our country henceforth, under
wise and patriotic management,
will not again experience an era
ofhard times, and financial de-
preston.

fermented liquor in, saloon, bar

the same is kept for, sale by the

way in such places to or a drink Of
liquor. 1t also prohibits the sale
Of liquor for such purposes, and
provides a fine and Imprisonment
for violation OF its provisions, 1t
is difficult to imagine how an cleo,
ton. can be held in Michigan in
the future. 'Whatlyhave" has be-

Our Bank Kobbers Heard From

Hennessey, Ok, June IA gang
of three masked men rode into the
town of Paris, fourteen miles south
west of here, and completely ter
rorized the people. They first rode
to the residence of Ed Dixon, a
former deputy sheriff, and compell-
ed his wife to give up what money
she had, and also two revolyers.
Then they called DR. Akres out of
bed on the pretense of getting some
medicine, and thrust Al Colts in
in his face. He contributed $50
in cash and gold watch. They
also held up three horsemen, but
got nothing. a party was imme-
diately made up and a chase made,
but few shots from the outlaws
dispersed them, The gang was
headed west when last seen. They
are supposed to be the same gang
that has been operating in Gonzales
and Dewitt counties, Texas, of late
and endeavoring to hold up banks.

WASHINGTON, July. A-Bsd news has
been received at the state department
from the colony Of American negroes
who went into Mexico some time ago
and settled on the tract Of land near
Tlahualilo. A telegram was received
at the department this morning from
Consul Sparks at Piedrss NegrRs, stat
ing that the negroes are in deplorable
condition.
These smigrants went from the South
ern states under most RlluEing promises
Of comfortable homes, but from all Ac'
counts they have been badly treated
and suffered great hsrdships from the
time Of their arrival in that country.
They are living on mosquito beans and
branch water. The consul says he can do
nothing toward their relief, and no fears
trouble because the negroes are starV-
ing. The railroads offer to make liberal
rates to take them out Of the country.
The consul states he has received q
telegram from DR.. Barry at Torreron,
Mex, dated July 49, stating that mum
Der Of the negroes Of the colony were
there destitute with fifteen cases OF con-
tsgious disease among them. The Mex
ican police have prevented them from
entering the town.
A letter on the subject has also been
received at the state department from
Representative Bsnkhssd Of Alabama
inc quiring whether the government car
aid In bringing back to this country
this colony who are destitute and dis
satisfied. 1t is probable that il the un.
fortunate negroes are to be saved pri'
vate aid must be extended to them i'm.
msdistely.
The consul at Piedrss Negras has
been instructed to render any assist
ancs which he can properly extend and
to report any serious development. Our
charge at the City Of Mexico has been
informed also Of the state Of affairs as
reported by the consul and instructed
to inquire into the treatment Of the col
onists. The department OF state has M
funds which can be applied to destitute
Americans other than seRmen in for
eign countries, or provide transpOrts
tion home, and has been obliged to 81
inform the consul and all inquiring per
sons regarding these colonists.

when the people have plenty OF money
they pay their debts and stop the bank
ers from rsaping where they have not
soWn. They know that when money is
scarce the people flock TO the banks 10
borrow. They know that their interests
lie in controlling the volume of currency
and limiting Comps titiOn in the money
lOaning business. And this is why they
reduce their circulating notes and de-
vote their time to speCulating on the
money Of their depositors. This Is q
principle known to the money changers
before Christ scourgOd them from the
temple. 1t was this principle that took
the monetary prerogatlve from the Brit
ish crown and transferred it to the Bank
Of England. II was this principle that
denied the right OF the American col
oniss to issue their own money and
forced patriots to klndls the fires OF rev.
olution. IL was this principle that &C.
tuRted the stockholders OF the old
United States bank to fight jackson
and threaten the life Of the nation. 1t
was this principle that stood out bolder
than all else in the notorious Hazard
circularg. It was this principle that
brought on the panic and organized the
sound money clubs with threats to em'
ploy gsttling guns to defeat any attempt
to coin silver or issue money by the gov
ernment not Controllsble by the banks.
"They know that the combine that
controls the money power OF q country
controls the people and the destiniea Of
q nation. It was vividly described in
the Bankers Magazine q few years ago
in the following words:
"'It is no libel on the characters tics
and tendencies Of the present or any
other sge to say the rich are growing
richer and the poor poorer, for such is
the natural result OF financial grsVita-
tion. Juat as easily and naturally as a
SNOWFALL gathers size by rolling down
hill does money gather wealth by stead
lily descending the gentle declivlty of
time
One thing is certain, banks Of issue
can never live in harmony with the in
atitutions Of free government. They are
mortal foes from organic principle, and
If one lives the other must die The ns'
tionRl banks have conspired against the
prosperity Of the people, threatened
bankruptcy to the nation every time an
effort was made to curb their powers,
and opposed every reform Of every kind
proposed by the people for the past
twenty-five years, from cooperative go
cialisrn down to the most minor reform
on the calendar Of public questions.
They are the natural allies Of the gold
power, the silent force behind the bond
frauds and the protector Of every other
form of private monopoly. They are
comets shot from the throne Of mon
archy, and their history is the history OF
death and desolstion. There is but one
wsy to meet this monster Of depTsvity,
and that Is to refuse it's worthless trash
and demand honest dollars for honest
service"

MONSTER OF DEPRAYITY.

l per cent. as he does when he loans the
money Of some kind depositor for which
he pays nothing. But Mr.. Gage mis-
represented the law when he inferred
that the national bankers deposit 5 per
cent. of their notes with the government
to secure their circulation.
Section Of the act Of congress reads
az follows: THAT section 81 Of the ma.
tional bank act be so amended that the
several associations therein provided
for shall not hereafter be required to
keep on hand any amount Of money
Whatever by reason Of the amount OF
their respective oirculstions; but the
monies required by said circulation to
be kept all times on hand shRll be deter
mined by the amount Of deposits in all
respects as provided for in said section
"Section 3,'of the same act provides that
the per cent. deposit with the govern
ment to redeem circulation shall be
sounted as part Of the lawful reserves
OF the bank, as provided in section 2,
Therefore the government generously
permits the national bankers reserve TO
answer double purpose, and the banker
is relievsd from depositing a single
cent extra by reason Of his circulating
notes.
"The reason national bankers do not is-
sue circulating notes to the full extent
Of their privilege is because they want to
make the flesh and blood Of the indus
trial masses very cheap and the neCessR'
ries and comforts Of life very hard to
got. Their interests lie in maintaining
q dependent rather than an independent
people. Trey laugh aud grow fat on
slavery and weep and die on freedom.
Why do national banks withhold their
own notes from circulation and at the
same time pay long. time depositors from
3to 4 per cent. par snnum for money to
loan to their customersP Why do they
pay private depositors three or four
times more for the use Of money than
they are willing to pay the government
for the use Of their own notes, which
they claim the people will accept as
freely as any other money and cannot be
boycottedP On the surface this seems
quite q mystery indeed. The Chicago
and other national bankers account for
this apparent unbusiness-like method,
on She ground that the bonds are at q
high premium. Yet it is not the low
interest on the bonds but their value aS
a basis for the circulation OF national
banks that give them the high premium
they now command. If Mr.. Lyman j.
Gage, and other national bankers, will
consult the private circulars issued BY
Fisk & Hatch, New York bankers, in
1888, they will find that Fisk & Hatch
clearly demonstrated that with bonds at
% per cent. premium, million dollars
invested in national banking twenty
years will retire the premium on the
bonds and pay it's investors $1,000 more
per snnum than s., 10000 will pay in
vested in private banking for the same
length Of time. Therefore, we will have
to look elsewhere for q cause why ma
tionsl bankers pay higher interest tC
time depositors than they will pay the
government for the use Of national cur
rency. But the cause is simple, and il
is one which the people have studied
