Currency Reform Inwardness.

The Buffalo Times says: The Pres
ident's recent message to Congress on
currency reform means that if the ma
tion allows another crime similar to
the 1873 one to be legislated upon its
shoulders bankers will provide the cur
rency and the nation, like lot of fools,
guarantee it,"
Let us consider this question OF cur
rency reform 10 its proper light, for it
should be so considered by every ma
tive born and every naturalized Ameri-
can citizen who has the welfare and
the perpetuality of the Republic at
heart, first last and all the time.
The most dangerous and insidious
for to the country is the bonding sys-
TEN. The ultimate aim of the money
power is to condense society into two
classes-the debtor and creditor class.
The whole trend of our legislation for
the last thirty years has been in that
direction; property rather than people
being the especial care of Legislators.
1t has been seen how easily, under an
arbitrary rule of the Treasury under
Cleveland, bonds were issued so as to
furnish bankers a chance for specula-
tive profits as well as those made upon
currency issued on the strength of
such bonds. There were then and
there are now no pressing debts to be
paid; there was no real occasion to is
sue bonds then to bankers, and there
is none now to do so, through the I'M
scrupulous efforts of the currency COM
mission. The bankers alone made the
demand for bonds under Cleveland,
and they are the ones now who only
insist upon change in the methods of
issuing the money of the people as has
been done since this Republic became
established.
1t is we'll enough known that the ma
tIonal bank system is based upon the
bonds issued by the government, and
that that system would end the mo-
ment this government had finally re-
deemed its bonds. The bankers run
ming this banking system howl contin-
ually about their losses, and that there
is nothing in It for them in buying
government bonds and issuing their
private paper of token money to the
public, and yet they are the very ones
who are clamoring louder than ever
for bonds in hundreds millions more
and the privilege of issuing currency
based upon them. Surely there must
be .'coen in the woodpile" some
where.
1t is for the people of this country to
carefully study out the question why
these poor philanthropic bankers wish
to saddle such money losing scheme
upon themselves. The governmet
backs its own notes now, the bankers
want their notes backed in the same
way. with this difference, they want
the profits derived by the people under
the former system all for themselves
under the latter.-K. c.. Times.
