The Greenback.

The Havre de Grace Republican packs
in one small sentence the following eco
nomic, demonstrated fact in the money
problem that knocks to pieces the tones
of sophistry, assertions based OH air, and
raw-head and bloody bones financial rant
that has been piled up by the gold ring
tom toms, the daily press, for years.
''Neither the governments credit or
the business interests of the country have
been injuriouslv effected i'll the slightest
degree by our national paper money cir
culation. but on the other hand, it has
been of incalculabe benefit to our indus
trial life and commercial prosperity"
The more the people learn to discredit
and suspect the teachings of the
mercenary commercial daily press the
more rapidly will they progress towards
deliverance from the stupor which the
gold conspiracy has acquired over them.
This gold conspiracy is of very ancient
origin. 1t has had numerous phases and
has had its principal disciples among the
Jews, who have brought it TO its present
colossal proportions by six thousand
years of instruction under the devils
teaching. The entire gold money doc
trine under its several aliases is of the
devils school of thought and teaching,
leading to degradation, slavery and crime!

And such is the faith and belief of the
1owly throughout the civilized world. 1t
is the destiny of this nation, if it has
future and destiny, to emancipate not
to enslave under any form of servitude, to
break the chains of those who suffer in
bondage, not to rivet them.
The United States cannot either neglect
or abuse their mission with safety, and
that mission is, in the case of these
Spanish oppressed peoples in the East
and West India islands, to help them to
liberty and the establishment of free,
republican form of government. But
there is class who have suddenly be-
come "jingoes, who are already count
ing only on freeing the island people
from the Spanish yoke to place on them
more refined kind of slavery. species
of tax gathering robbery similar to that
which grinds Egypt and British India
into the dust. They are disparaging the
native Cubans and the people of the
Philippines as barbarous, half or whole
savage, totally unfit.for elfgovernment.
This class, we are sorry to say, have
present control in this government and
will leave no art of deception untried to
securely place the people of all the Span
ish islands that fall into our hands, under
the vampire regime of the money power,
to be bled to death by their monopolies,
trusts, plundering corporations and bank
robbery.
People who produce such leaders as
Aguinaldo, Gomez, Maceo, Garcia and
many more of equal ability and leader
ship, whose followers are ready with their
leaders to lay down their lives for freedom
and who hail the flag of this nation as the
emblem Of their de1iverance from bond
age, are fit to govern themselves. All
that they want is an opportunity and
some assistance in launching safely a
government for themselves.
Spain's madness bids fair to cost her
the loss of every island over which her
savage and sixteenth century civilization
has misgoverned, and the duty which
seems providentially thrust upon the
United States of receiving this trust must
not be abused, of which there is great
danger. New statesmen must be brought
to the front if this duty is not betrayed
The Hoars, Dingleys, Morrills, Platts,
Hannas, Alriclls, ct. al, will have to be
replaced by an entirely different class Of
statesmen, competent to handle the new
questions which will shelve the old,
hoary, fossilized measures which have
stood the Republican and Democratic
parties so long to beguile the people with.

Startling Facts Concerning Banks

Is the caption ola leading paper i'll the
WeaO Time magazine, by the Hon. R. A.
Dague of California. Mr.. Dague gives a
very clear and convincing presentation of
our present banking system, pointing out
its numerous evils and faults. All he says
about the banks and banking methods
ale established facts, backed up by sta
tistics supplied by the banks and govern
ment officers. Facts, however painful to
contemplate, are not new, but are we'll
known to all who choose to study or in
vestigate the present, or any banking sys-
tenn that has ever been practiced in the
United States.
The entire banking SYSTEM" says Mr..
Dague, "both national, commercial and
savings, is unsound, is defective to the
core. 1t is untitled for this age; it should
be replaced by better system"
After stating this sweeping truism he
proceeds to outline what he considers
better system, but the plan seems to fall
far short of such banking system as the
business of the present time demands.
Mr.. Dague explains his plan as follows ::
"I.et law be enacted by the legisla-
ture of every State creating State saving
and loan bureau with branch in every
county. Let every county treasurer be
authorized to receive money on deposit,
issuing negotiable certificates for the
same, the holder of the certificate be
allowed interest at the rate of 81 or a per
cent per annum at the maturity of the
certificate on presentation for payne MT
Let the county treasurer be authorized to
make loans say at per cent interest per
aunum." Loans for not longer time than
ten years are recommended on farm lands.

The War.

The transports with General
Shafter's troops reached Santiago
on Monday and the troops were ex-
pected to be able to get ashore on
Cuban soil about the first of next
week and commence the investment
of Santiago, a place of no use what
ever to the army and the capture
of which is to secure the Spanish
fleet or destroy it which has been
blockaded in the harbor for several
weeks. In the meantime the
Spanish Admiral is watching for a
chance to run out some dark night,
and if he was a Yankee in place of
Spaniard he would certainly
accomplish it. The expectation in
army circles is that heavy fighting
will be commenced next week.

litical and economic principles and the

The monarchies of the old world are

The wealth which the free hand Of
republican institutions and the riches of a
new continent have enabled the people OF
the United States to create, has excited
the avarice of the money power and envy
of monarchical nations The war with
Spain should not be used to expand the
already great geographical bounds of the
American republic by annexing the
oceanic parts of the dying Spanish ma

The down-trodden masses who have

arms and renewed the battle hoping and
