Precedent for Non-Interest Bond.

Precedent for Non-Interest Bond.
I'm 1745 Virginia was badly in need
Of money or medium of exchange. A
paper money bottomed on a special tax
was issued, which afforded abundant
relief, and as we learn from Jefferson,
never deprecated a farthing in value.
But more marked instance of the
value of money as an element of pro-
duction is furnished by the experience
of Pennsylvania during the present CEN
tury. In 1S41 the people of Pennsylva-
mia were on the verge of bankruptcy
The state was unable to pay the wages
of laborers for work done on the public
works. There was no money, conse-
quently trade and production were COM
pletely paralyzed. The state of Penn
sylvania in this crisis issued So ,100, 900
Of what were called relief notes, bear
ing simply promise that they would
be received by the treasury of the state
in payment of all taxes and other OBJ
legations due the state.
These notes were taken greedily."
But the banks would like to have
squelched them.
Banks inserted in the front of their
books an agreement that the depositors
should receive on check the same kind
of money he deposited. and then took
these notes. They discounted paper
with them. The wheels of industry
were set in motion by these notes,
which promised nothing but that they
would be received in payments of state
taxes. The state paid her domestic
creditors, and these hastened to pay
theirs or to supply their wants by pur-
chases. Crops for which there had
been no market, moved; the loom and
the spindle were again heard; labor,
lifted from despair, found work and
wages, and with the great resources of
Pennsylvania under full and free de-
velopment, she was soon exporting
more than she imported. Gold and sill
yer flowed in upon us. We then were
wise enough to know says William D.
Kelly, of Pennsylvania, from whom this
was first quoted, that it is labor, not
gold and silver, that maintains the pub
lie credit The People, Detroit,

they are in earnest they will say here
and now that under no circumstances
will we fight for gold man, and what
ever the convention does, we will be in
party which favors the free and un-
limited coinage Of silver at the ratio
of 16 to 1. If the Democratic conven-
ton endorse Cleveland, Sherman,
Rothschilds & Co., we will meet with
the silver men in another convention
which shall be democratic in truth;
which shall be American in fact; which
shall be in favor of the money of the
Constitution and against the subver-
sion OF this government through the
power OF creditor England England
is an avowed enemy of all mankind out
side of the United Kingdom, and she
declares that she will hold on to the
gold standard because by extorting
from debtor nations more than they
contracted to pay, she can maintain her
commercial supremacy and subject
them to degrading dependency"

BoYcoTTlNo BANK NOTES.
The Bankers Boycott the Money of Il
Constitution

The Bankers Boycott the Money of the
Constitution.
The boycott of national bank notes
by the knights of Labor is a good thing
where a man has no notes nor any
means OF securing any. A free tender
Oh notes in the smallest denominations
would hardly be refused even by the
most ardent advocate of the present
alleged boycott.-Little Rock Democrat
(goldbug).
While we do not endorse boycotts in
general, neither do we endorse the kind
Oh cowardice (called humility that
turns the other cheek for another
punch.
The bankers begun the boycott, and
turn about is fair play.
No doubt the bankers would also be
willing to accept silver for silver GER
tlhcates presented at the treasury If
the secretary refused to pay them in
gold.
Burning the greenbacks was some
what worse than boycotting bank notes.
And the open fight for the destruc-
ton OF the few greenbacks still in ex-
istence is a boycott not only of the best
money in existence-but is rebellion
against the government of the United
States.
The boycott of bank notes is only
protest against the special privilege
granted to bankers of drawing interest
on what they owe.
Bank notes are not money at all.
The money that the bankers boycott
Is the money Of the United States con-
stltution and the decree of the greatest
government on earth.
The boycott of the wage slaves
against bank notes may not succeed as
well as the boycott of coupon clippers
against the money of the people-but
the agitation will serve to show the
world that bank notes are not money,
not legal tender, and that banks them
selves refuse to redeam their own notes,
Notwithstanding their demagogic wall
Tor sound money" and and money re-
deemable in gold.
Let the good work go on.
Whlle the usury sharks are trying to
arouse public opinion against the green
backs, let us arouse the people against
the bank notes, and have hereafter no
other money but government money
and that of gold. silver and paper, full
legal tender in the United States fol-
all dues both public and private.
Who cares what Europe says?
This is America.

Justice Brown, of the United States
Supreme court, made very wise OBJ
servation when he said: "If wealth
will not respect the rules of common
honesty in the use of it's power, it will
have no reason to expect moderation or
discretion on the part of those who re-
sist its encroachments." Every one
must see that corporate and concen-
trated wealth is growing more arrogant
each year. The answer which the
superintendent of the Illinois coal mine
gave General Master Workman Soyer-
eign, LET them starve and be damned -
the treatment OF the Pullman employees:
the blacklisting of railway men; the
Imprisonment Of Debs; the income tax
decision; the extortion and discrimina-
ton of railway corporations; the exac-
tions of trusts, and numerous other vio-
lations of the rules Of common honesty
indicate that, while these wealthy in
stitutions depend upon the law for sup
port, they are by their example teaching
the people to have as little respect for
it as themselves. When this feeling be-
comes general where will the wealthy
look for support? without respect for
law the law ID powerless. Honest men
cannot be hired to protect the property
of tyrants and extortioners. and thieves
and thugs will see no necessity for it
when they once discover that they can

Monroe Doctrine to Be Rigidly Ad-
hered to by the Administration.

New YORK, Oct. 5.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: "The
great international question of the
hour is the Venezuelan boundary dis
pute. Secretary Olney has prepared a
dispatch to Ambassador Bayard which
will soon bring the matter to an issue.
This dispatch is of a most positive and
unequivocal nature. As soon as it
shall be placed before the British gov
ernment it will raise an issue which
can be settled only by retreat of one
taken by the United States in this dis
patch is one that involves the oldest
and most sacred traditions of the Mon
roe doctrine.
I'm polite but firm and significant
words Secretary Olney declares it to
be the belief of the United States gov
ernment that the territorial claims
which Great Britain has set up in Ven
ezuela are in the nature of an attempt
to seize territory on the American
continent to which she has no legal
right
''The secretary points out two horns
to the dilemma, leaving England to
choose which it will accept. First
If the quarrel with Venezuela is an
ordinary boundary dispute, having it's
origin In faulty descriptions, imperfect
surveys or other MISUNDERSTANDING a
refusal to arbitrate the same is con-
trary to the preced dents set by Great
Britain herself and contrary to the
practice of all civilized nations Sec

to be the case, and is the belief of the

ary line is mere disguise under which
Great Britain is attempting by supe-
rior force to extend her territory in
America, this is directly violative OF
the NJ onroe doctrine, and will never
be submitted to by the United States.
This is the substance of the dis
patch which in all probability will
soon become one of the most famous
dispatches ever sent out from the state
department. 1t is a direct, positive
and practical application of the Mon

the quarrel between Great Britain aud

Populism is conglomeration of is-

sluffing off of the soap-tail element of
the two old parties. The word ignor-

good man can excuse himself for being

Down in Mississippi the populists
have democracy about downed, and the
democratic papers are desperate in their
denunciations.
We have read a great many ouota-
tions from Mississippi papers. and will
say that the above is an average argu-
ment against populism.
Their whole policy may be summed
up in few words.
About half the democratic papers re-
peat over and over again that "tho
populists are dying"-the other half
give vent to their frenzy by repeatine

Not one of them ever attempts to dis,

merits.
The populists, meanwhile, are en-,
gagged in educating the people upon
their duties and responsibilities as goo6

The populists recognize the fact thai
even a fool may learn something.

The populists are willing to learn

longs to.
1t is for the mutual benefit of all the
