Our "greenbachers" should rejoice
over the fact that another paper money
experiment is being tried. "lf green
backs put down the rebellion in the
United States, why shouldn't they prove
effective weapons against Cuban
rebels" reasons Gen Weyler, who is
flooding the coast towns of Cuba with
artistically engraved promises to pay
on one side of piece OF paper and a
picture Of well-developed tobacco
plant on the other side.
The experiment is bound to he sue
cesstul, for the notes are made legal
tender in the worst way, Any shop
keeper who refuses to accept these
promises for their face value is subiect
TO instant imprisonment in jails where
confinement means almost certain
death. OF course under the circum-
stances the notes are accepted. Weyler,
however, forgot to decree that prices
should not be raised, and the Cuban
shopkeepers are mean enough to try to
defeat the experiment by raising prices.
So far they have only doubled prices,
but each one is trying to see how high
he can put prices, and the end is not in
sight,
Come to think of It, high prices, con-
stantly growing higher, have defeated
all past experiments with paper
money. Perhaps Weyler, by correcting
this little defect may yet demonstrate
that greenbackers are right and that
cheap money. by proper legislation, can
be made just as good as money made
from costly metals. What boon plenty
Of money would be to mankindl Sue
cess to Weyler's experiment and death
to the traitor who tries to prevent It's
success by raising prices or by refus-
ing to accept Weyler's handsome prom
ises.

CREDIT FOR FARMERS.
Continuance Of Present Conditions .
Distinct Hardship to Agriculture.


Distinct Hardship 10 Agriculture.
We have lately given some accounts Of
the operation Of agricultural banks in
Europe, which have done very much for
the farming class by making it possible
for it to secure loans on such security
as farmers can offer. The farmer is
especially in need of credit, for the in
terval must always be considerable be-
tween the preparation OF the soil and
the harvesting of the crop. He must
spend money n long time before he
can get any back. As to mos; OF his
products. he may be said TO be carry
ing on u business where The stock is
turned over but once year. Further
more, as crop natures all over the
country at the same season. and gener-
ally within period OF few weeks, 1t IS
particularly important to the farmer
that he should not be compelled to re-
allie on his haryests Immediately. He
would break the market il he were
obliged to sell all his crops as soon as
gathered, and yet he must sell good
deal, for he has been under expense for
months without any income.
While the farmer more than almost
any other producer needs credit, he
cannot generally offer commercial Sc
curity, and real estate is not a good
secur'y for ordinary banks Of discount
TO take, and II is unlawful for our ma
tional banks to accept It. The result
is that the farmer Is usual compelled
to sell his produce at IN unprop tious
time or to get credit of merchants and
private bankers for which usurious
rates are obtained. In this country
there has been practically no effort to
supply this need for agricultural cred
its, although the brokers and private
bankers and factors who have made
practice of lending to farmers have
made great deal of money out of it,
for the absence of competition enables
them to get high rate for money, and
the farmer pretty generally pays his
debts.
1t is singular that in our own coun-
try no effort has been made to afford
agriculture in general the capital 1t
needs for the improving of land and
for carrying on farm operations during
the long intervals between the annual
marketing of crops. The changed con-
ditions of the times make it imperative
that farming must be conducted upon
more scientific principles so as to get
out Of the land more than it has here
tofore produced, and that necessity
leaves no alternative but either to afford
the farmer enlarged credit facilities or
to leave the present landowners to be
frozen out by insolvency, with the re-
suit of transferring this industry to
aclass possessing plermeans and able
to cultivate larger farms upon improved
methods. journal of Commerce and
Commercial Bulletin.

Unfortunate interruption.

Willie was asleep and Dan was
lonely. Willie is the minister's
son, Dan is his dog. 1t was Sun
day morning and every one was at
church but these two friends. 1t
was warm and sunny, they could
hear the preaching, for their house
WAS next door the church.
DAN said Willie, it is better
here than in church, for you can
hear every word, and don't get
prickles down your back, as you do
when you have to sit up straight
In some way, while Willie was
listening he fell asleep.
Dan kissed him on the nose, but
when Willie went to sleep he went
to sleep to stay, and did not mind
trihes. So Dan sat down with the
funniest look Of care on his wise,
black face, and with one ear ready
for outside noises.
Now the minister had for his sub.
iect, Daniel This was the name
he always gave Dan when he was
teaching him to sit up and beg, and
other tricks.
While the dog sat thinking, the
name Daniel fell in his ear Dan
at once ran into the church through
the vestry door. lie stood on his
hind legs, with his forepaws droop-
ing close beside the minister, who
did not see him, but the congrega
ton did. When the minister
shouted Daniel = again, the sharp
barks said, Yes, SIR as plainly as
Dan could answer.
The minister started back, look
ed around. and saw the funny lit
tie picture; then he wondered what
he should do next, but just then
through the vestry came Willie.
His face was rosy from sleep, and
he looked a little frightened. lie
walked straight toward his father,
and took Dan in his arms and said
please 'scuse Dan, papa. went
to sleep and he ruined away
Then he walked out with Dan
looking back on the smiling con-
gregation. The preacher ended
his sermon on Daniel as best he
could; but then be made resolve,
il he ever preached again on the
prophet Daniel, he would remem.
Der to tie up his dog. Our Little
Ones.
