Let the government issue the money.-Para-
graph in the Barber County INDEX (pop.).
The government hasn't got it. The
only legitimate way it can get money
IS to tax the people to raise it. The
lNDEX's idea that the government can
issue slathers of money on its credit is
foolish.-Topeka Capital.
Oh, but the government manages to
loan the money to the national bank.
or i'll other words, the banker issues
money on the governments credit. If
the governments credit is good enough
fora banker to Issue money on, why
isn't it good enough for the government
to issue the money directly? Why, if
the Capitals line of reasoning is sound ,
does the government allow the banker
to issue money and loan it to the people
at an enormous rate of interest, while
it only pays l per cent for this privi-
lege? Instead of tie national bank, we
need government bank, managed by
the government and then we will have
legitimate institution instead of a
robbers den.

CREDIT or KANSAS.

A few years ago when the Anthony
Loan q Trust Company was doing bus
mess in Anthony they made loan to
F. M. Evans on real estate, and the
mortgage was subsequently sold toJohn
S. Smith of Massachusetts. In 1898
the mortgage became due, and through
the eastern agents was sent to j. r.
Hammond of Anthony. for collection.
We are told that Mr.. Evans paid the
mortgage of $500 to Mr.. Hammond in
July 1893, but that the latter gentleman
or some of his colleagues IN the case
failed to report the collection or send in
the cash. Instead of that he or they
reported that they couldn't get a fore.
closure proceeding through a populist
court. The eastern investor knew Mr..
Evans to be a safe man and the loan to
be good one and was cOntented to let
the loan take its turn and was not wor-
ried about his security.
A similar case was loan to Henry
Peters. On the payment of 1913 inter
est and back taxes to d. Ii. Williams
chnsetts, Peters was to have an exten.
sion of his loan in the year 1894. But
III this case, a. in the Evans case, the
money has not yet reached the rightful
owner; and the non payment was again
credited to the pop court" About
this time this man Hammond was edi.
tor of republican newspaper in An
thony; he was republican congressional
committeeman. He was particularly
severe on the populist court; had much
to say about repudialors; preached
honesty and integrity in his paper and
we presume he is still doing it in his
republican paper at Van Buren,, Ark.
But the tide has turned. The east
ern men who have blamed the populist
judge so severely have just found out
that the Judge was not to blame, in at
least two cases, and we can tell of sew.

ment.
We would like to ask our republican
friends it these republican editor-law-
yers, stand-up-for-Kansas fellows have
been doing much toward establishing
the credit of Kansas with our eastern
creditors? Why, dear reader, these
two cases, and there are others, have
done ten times as much to hurt our
credit as any act, resolutions or law
that can be laid to the popullst party.
We ask you republican fellows to quit
bowling reputation, and throwing
stones at the pop court until you have
cast aside the thieves and lying leaders
in your own party. IL you have eany-
thing to say in defense of this man
Hammond and his stand, up for Kan
sas methods, we would like to hear
