Cooperative Ranking for Farmers.

| hah&hAhB LUZ
The American Agriculturist, of April
4, again discusses editorially the .en-
tire feasibility of cooperative banking
among farmers" This can be done, y
it says, "by slight notifications of the
system of cooperative savings fund and
building associations or cooperative
banks, which has proved so remarkably
successful in American cities. These
institutions now hold over $500, 900
Of deposits and are thoroughly demon
strated practical success. The Saxon
Land Credit association Ia report upon
which can be obtained by writing to
the secretary of state, Washington is a
modification of the Raiffeisen system,
which in Prussia and Germany has
achieved the same success among the
working farmers of those countries that
the cooperative banks have achieved in
our American cities. The peoples banks
of Italy and neighboring countries,
based upon much the same plan, have
had marvellous success. A report Civ
ing further particulars upon the Saxon
Land Credit association has been pub
lished by the department of state for
free distribution, in which Consular
Agent Peters says with a truth that
can never be questioned:
What American farmers require to re-
lieve them of the present financial strain
under which they are living is the power to
borrow at the lowest possible interest con-
sistent with their securities and the finan-
cial conditions in the great centers of the
world. So long as they must borrow from
the local money lender they must pay a
high rate of interest for accommodation.
It is this high rate of interest under which
our farmers are now striving and failing
that is responsible for the general unrest
and dissatisfaction. Remove the high rate
of interest, give them the same opportunity
to use their credit as men engaged in other
on the farm for one with a reasonable in
terest, which the farmer can pay and have
something left for the savings bank, and
we will restore happiness and prosperity.
1.-THE question has been solved by the
farmers and landholders of Europe, and
the solution of the problem did not con-
sist in the issue by the government of
mass of debased currency circula ted
among the people at a fictitious value. The
end was reached by the farmers and land
holders by their own force and coopera-
ton, by the founding of associations which
in time became a power in the land and
whose financial strength was measured by
millions of undoubted securities which
the public was only too glad to invest in"

"HAPPY GEORGE AGAIN.

George Alverson, better known in po-
lice circles as HAPPY George" finished
serving out a $40 fine the latter part of
last week and was again arrested yes
terday morning on the same old charge
usually following his name in the police
record-drunk and down.
He was fined one dollar this morning
by Recorder Lewis and went to Jail to
spend the day. when he will have paid
his fine. He was arrested by officer
Quintana on the corner of East and
West Commerce streets.

Baseball cranks are queer people.
When the home team loses the players
are stiffs and stogies; when the home
team wins it is all right, but when the
home team wins easy the cranks kick
and say they didn't get their moneys
worth. Because yesterdays game was
1872 instead of FL some of the cranks
were heard to remark that it was a
rotten game.
Yes, they actually said it was rot
ten. There were only four errors in
the whole game, but still it was rot
ten. Shades of Mike Kelley; just think
of it. The Bronchos got fourteen we'll
placed hits: George Keefe and Bill
Kohnle put it over the fence with the
bases full and Big Tom Hayes pitched
one Of the incest games of ball ever
seen in San Antonio and still the
game was rotten. Oh, what rotten
rooters,
The Partisan Midlanders have their
last trial here this afternoon with Jupe
Pluyes consent. Don't imagine be-
cause Eddie Green's aggregation are
tailenders they are not playing ball,
for they are. They are in the
game to the finish. In the field they
play as snappy as any team that has
ever been here, but they are not up TO
the standard in hitting, and a team can
not win unless it can hit. That's the
game. Oh, yes, the Bronchos can hit
a few, and they know their business
on the bases, for Mike O'Connor is al
ways there to tell them just what tC
do, and he shows them how to do it,
Errors? Why, of course, and plenty
of them. But what do we care fol
such little things as long as we car
hit. If you doubt just try us.
And those defenders of Dallas will
be here tomorrow. And with them are
Little Mickey Lawrence, our erst-whil,
faVorite centerfielder; and Georg,
Blackburn, so we'll remembered her,
from last years Senators: and Ma
poleon McCloskey, the boy wonder o
the big league, who has brought man,
a young player to the front; and Tu
Welch, the latest ball player that eve
walked on Texas soil. Oh. McCloske
has got a regular sideshow outfit thi
season. He's even got Kid Peoples
who's been playing ball ever since, an

A PLEASANT DAY.

A party of city folks spent pleasant
day out on the Yecker ranch, about
IL, miles west OF the CITY yesterday
where the time was spent in picking
wild flowers, listening to country
string band, and partaking of a nice
dinner which the family had prepared
for their guests. the spread consisting
of meats, abundance of vegetables,
cake, ice cream, xxx Pearl. butter
milk, etc, etc. The city folks re-
turned home about dusk, much de-
lighted with the days outing.

Confidence Makes Gold Plentiful.

The gold standard does not restrict us
to the use of gold. Our country, like
every other gold standard country, uses
vast amounts of silver concurrently
with gold.
There is no shortage of gold. Its pro-
duction is steadily increasing. When
confidence prevails, there is no lack OF
gold for currency or any other pur-
poses.
Silver VS.. MIX.
Up in Iowa they have given up silver
and have a softer snap. They make
SAL, 500 900 in Iowa from their cows
alone. That beats free silver, doesn't
it-beats It all hollow? They make
SAL, 100000 selling milk, butter, cheese
and calves, and at the end of the yea1
they hare the same old Bossy and SpecB
and Spot and Brindle and Bess that
they had the year before. The Kansas
cow is sticking her head over the pas
ture fence, lowing and mooing, with hel
bag swelling with $41, 100000 worth o.
milk, while the old man is downtown
tearing his shirt because the plutocrat'
won't coin s36. 900 worth Of silver

Government Currency.

The reason bank circulation has been
decreasing through a term of years,
and why it is inelastic, remaining al
most without change from season to
season, is that the security for it is a
deposit of government bonds. The
bank capital is in the treasury instead
of in business. The profits on circula-
ton decline as the bonds increase in
value or the rate of interest declines,
and the redemption process is slow and
ineffective. The dangers of the gov
eminent currency and the deficiencies
of the bank currency are now pretty
we'll recognized, and every day shows in
creased earnestness in the demands of
business men for a complete and per-
manent cure.-Iron Age.

BLOW TO CUBAN PLANS.
President Mckinley Not I'm Favor of Fill
clustering Expeditions.

4Nthihity NV Va
clustering Expeditions.
Washington, March 19.-There are in
dications that Cuban filibustering is not
in favor at the White House. 1t is be-
lieved that President Mckinley and
Secretary Sherman will oppose it as
strongly as did Cleveland and Olney.
The president and number of his ad-
visers had quite prolonged conference
Wednesday on the subject of filibuster-
ing expeditions, and finally reached
conclusion that for the present at least
clearance papers should be refused sus-
pected filibustering vessels until their
owners cleared themselves by affidavit
or otherwise of the suspicion attaching
to them.
The cabinet Tuesday considered the
question of the enforcement of the neu-
trality laws, with particular reference
to the treatment of such vessels as the
Dauntless which are under suspicion
of filibustering intent, but seek to Sc
cure clearances in the routine fashion.
A number of legal points are involved
and Attorney General McKenna was
asked to prepare a legal opinion on
them.
Wednesday, by appointment Secreta-
ries Sherman, Long and Gage and At
torney General McKenna met the pres
tident for a further discussion of the
subject. The furnishing of a patrol
fleet for the protection of seal life in
Bering sea was also a matter OF con-
sultation, but no conclusion was
reached. Appointments did not come
up
The attorney general was asked spe-
officially for an opinion whether clear
ance papers should be granted to the
tug Dauntless. Mr.. McKenna, with the
information at hand, did not deem 1t
advisable to pass on the subject. He
concluded to obtain additional facts
and circumstances bearing on the his
tory of the vessel and 1t is supposed
has communicated with the govern
ment officials in Florida for the purpose
of getting all the data obtainable. A
decision in the case Is awaited by the
treasury officials with great deal OF
interest as giving an indication or the
regard to Cuban matters.
Meanwhile there Is evidence that In
one respect at least the treasury off,
cials are keeping up the sharp lookout
begun by the former administration to
intercept filibusters. Information re-
Gently reached the department that sus-
picious circumstances indicated the
probability of the Three Friends max
ing preparations for another flibuster-
ing expedition. The vessel Is now al
Key West, so word was sent to the
commander of the revenue cutter For
ward at Tampa to proceed to Key West
and keep sharp lookout for the al
legged filibuster.
Formal confirmation came to the state
department Wednesday from United
States Consul Lee of the press report
of the release at Havana of Oscar Ces-
pedes, a native Of Key West, who has
been for many months In jail at the
Cabanas in Havana.

London, March 19.-The Daily Chron-
icle states: "Grave new has been re-
ceived in London with respect to the
health Of Emperor William of Germany,
and certain constitutional possibilities
are being discussed"
This paragraph refers to the recent
disquieting reports regarding the sanity
of EMPEROR William and the possibility
that a regency will have to be estab-
lished for the German empire. The
London Daily Mall in paragraph un-
mistakably referring to Emperor Will
lam, said that the latter's vagaries were
causing profound anxiety to his family
Pnching guests and trying to trip
them with his sword are among the lat
est antics attributed to Emperor Will
lam, whose manifold eccentricities and
occasional VIOLENT outbreaks have caused
his sanity to be suspected for several
years.
These successive illusions In two lead
ing London papers to the mental con-
dition of Emperor William have caused
much comment here. The subject is, OF
course. so delicate that no public man
of prominence cares to be quoted upon
it. The probable sanity of Emperor
William for some years has caused
grave apprehensions in diplomatic cir
cles lest some mad freak on his part
might disturb the peace Of Europe. 1t
is believed now, however. that the Ger
man ministry and parliament will prob
ably recognize the situation and take
measures to establish a regency or put
the emperor under necessary restraint.

MILK SHIPPERS UP IN ARMS.
They Have Declared War on Dealers in
Chicago.

Kenosha, Wis, March 19.-The milk
shippers are after the scalps of the Chi
cago milk dealers. A call has been sent
out to all the shippers between here and
Harvard, Ills, along the Kenosha di-
vision of the Chicago and Northwestern
road, to organize local unions at every
station and send delegates to Kenosha
to attend meeting called for Saturday.
This meeting is one of series which
will be held at points where the milk
shippers on all sides of Chicago can be
reached. Each meeting is to elect del
egates to a central meeting to be held
in Chicago Monday, March 29 This
movement is a revival of the one made
some months ago having for its purpose
the protection of the milk shippers
against irresponsible dealers, who, in
many instances, are not paying a living
price to the shippers for their milk and
in many other instances pay nothing
at ALL The former movement was not
an unqualified success, owing TO the
failure of the shippers TO agree on a
plan of cooperation. A very lively
meeting is looked for.
