IInll the Master.

The German historian, DR.. Karl
Peters, in work not yet off the
press, "rhe Rise of the British EN-
pire" advance sheets of which have
appeared in Germany, holds that
the United States, through de-
pendent monetary policy, has lost
her former strong, independent pO-
sition among nations and has again
become dependency of Great
Britain.
DR.. Peters writes: THE total
political independence enjoyed by
the United States is, therefore, only
degree above the freedom Of Can
ada and Australia" Again he says:
British imperialism is not founded
upon cannon; it rests upon money
only, and ancient Rome never ex-
plotted her possessions in a more
relentless manner than Great
Britain her possessions or the cOun-
tries subject to the influence of her
capital.
"Among the countries thus ruled
by English money, the United
States stands first and alone and
pays tribute annually to the amO unit
of two hundred and fifty million
dallars, at the lowest computation,
while French statistics place it at
four hundred millions.
"To know this means to under
stand that the stars and stripes, this
| bOaSted banner Of freedom and in
pendence, floats in reality over an
immense dependence of Great
Britain. This, too, explains why
the warlke spirit of the Americans
was cooled down with such ease
| when London chose to manipulate
! the markets to the dpuimeut Of
America during the Nenrzueian
| trouble -
And further along he says: "rhat
America could ever be free frc m
this tribute must be regarded as i'm
! possible. For this could only be ac-
cOmpished if the Americans were
able gradually to purchase THEN
bonds This they cannot do unless
they save up the necessary capital.
Now, as they have already to pay at
least two hundred and fifty millions
annually of their surplus earnings,
it does not seem likely they can
save. AS matter Of fact, their
debts increase.
The farmers in the United States
rarely see money, and their property
is deeply mortgaged. Hence the
enormous number Of unemployed
and heavy emigration from Amer
lea. Americas troubles are caused
by her bondage, and if we look
| closer we will di-ruypr that Emo

EX.GOV. PETER TURNEY,
Suggests Plan to Economize Public
Expenditures.

Suggests "a Plan to EcOnOmize Public
Expenditures.
To The American:
AS starting point in an effort to
eCOnOmize puOllc expenditures |
suggest reduction in the represen-
tatiOn in both houses of the General
Assembly. My plan is to reduce to
ten Senators and twenty Represen-
tatives which | think the Legisla-
ture has the power to do under the
provisions of the Constitution.
Either create each congressional
district as now constituted, one sena-
tOridl and two representative dis
tricts, or redlstriCJ the State 50 that
the apportionmsnt of voters for
Senators and two Representatives
from district shall correspond with
one congressional apportionment.
If the representation in the Legis-
lature is thus arranged, We can have
our best men to legjslate for US, as
the extent and population OF Il dis
trict would require that the man
who hoped to succeed as a candi-
date must be known To the people
IT, be qualified before he can be
elected, and We viii get freed from
local and personal preiudices and
favOrs which are under the present
system potent factors in the selec-
tion Of legislative material.
With thir y instead of 1872 mem
bers of the Legislature, each mem
Der would feel u responsibility fol
legislation and know that response
bility could be traced to him, and
would, therefore, be more active
and anxious i'm the discharge OF
his duty.
All opportunities for shirking and
lodging would be taken away, every
man would be at his post and know
that his acts We're being observed.
There would be more deliberatioI
and sounder judgment in the en-,
actment Of laws, and the interests of
the people better subserved.
Upon all questions each member
would see that it was his duty and
to his interest to investigate and un.
derstand proposed legislation.
There would be less room for cor.
ruption and bribery, and more room
to detect and punish them if occur
ring.
There would be a saving of five oil
six hundred dollars per day, ol
about $4,000 per legislative session
to the State.
l have examined the question and
conclude there is no doubt of tt,
constitutionality of such measure
Thirty representative men, such
as this plan would give us, will bt
able to enact all necessary and prop
er legislation for the State in an en-
tirely satisfactory way, and afford
mucn less litigation over the con-
stitutiOnality of their enactments
than do the present 1872.
The present organization is cum
bersome and unwieldly and ough
to be reduced.
As it is, a few men do the work
Reduce to thirty members and every
man would have to work and under
