90 ptejudiced against & that she did not
care to try It again. but 1 got sister
to make the Postum next morning
strictly according to directions, that Is,
allow 1t to boil full fifteen minutes af-
ter the boiling begins.
I'VE were all amazed at the difference,
Sister said 1t was better coffee, to her
taste, than the old, and father, who Is
an elderly gentleman, and had used
coffee All his life, appeared to relish the
Postum as well as my little brother,
who took 1t from the first.
For while. mother clung to her old
favorite, although she was sick more or
less of the time. Finally, one morning,
she drank a cup Of Postum by mistake,
believing Il to be coffee. We jolted her
so much about II, because she did not
discover the difference. that she finally
admitted she had occasionally taken a
sip Of the Postum Cone. and from that
time she proposed to use 81 altogether.

revolution. The other authority looks
for financial collapse, and predicates his
prophecy upon the collaboration of capi-
tai upon certain productions or industries
to the exclusion of many which do not
offer inordinate gains; which are not, in
other words, susceptible of being gathered
into rtust He insists that no private
organization with fifty millions or more
of capitalization at stake is safe against
sudden panic or even temporary business
depression.
The universal rush of capital to organ
ize into the trusts, he further AYERS, will
result in the formation of many that can
not be made profitable, many that are
bound in the nature of things to fail.
These failures would precipitate a gen.
eral crash in which the strong would
topple to ruin, pulled down by the panic
terror inspired by the misfortunes OF their
fellows. He points to the fact that upon
more than one occasion in our CONNER
clal history stocks whose dividend-pay-
ing abilities were beyond suspicion or
cavil, lost more than half of their selling
value in few days of crisis.

only should be authorized to lend All
interest should accrue to the government,
and go Immediately into circulation
through the medium of the payment of
public expenses. This would not only re-
lease the masses of the people from the
burdens of taxation, but it would insure
the constant and healthy movement of
the circulating medium, and prevent it
from congesting in the hands of usurers.
Money is like water, or blood in the body.
SO long as these are permitted to flow
steadily in the natural currents they re-

stagnate into pools or clots they become
foul and poisonous and breed all manner
of disease and suffering In the nature
of things usury is bound to concentrate
and re-concentrate capital until eventually
the medium of exchange will pass out
of the hands of the people and will be-
come idle and useless in the hands of
limited number of money dealers. It is
precisely the evil that we are beginning
to suffer from, and it is growing greater
and more exasperating month by month.
Money flows in steady stream from the
people to the money centers, and remains
idle there, while. other streams pour their
yellow treasures into the same reservoir.

Evils of USury.
[ D.

There is SO much pth and point, sound
sense and historical interest in COL JEFF
ferd's article on banking in this issue,
that a mere reference will be sufficient
to induce everybody to read it. A clearer
or stronger exposition of the evils that
come from and belong to the banking or
lending business was never writ
ten. COL Jefferds thinks the business
should be regulated; but we go further
and say it ought to be prohibited; except
as a government privilege and right. We
take the broad ground that for the good
of the general public no individual should
be permitted to lend money to another
for usury or interest-for both words
mean the same thing, the one being
merely less harsh term than the other
The business Of money lending has been
the direct and indirect cause OF more
wretchedness and crime and bloodshed
than all other evils that are sanctioned
and tolerated by governments. Our peo-
pie claim to be Christian nation, and
that fact alone ought to settle the matter,
for there is no other single evil more en-
phatically or viguro. sly condemned hy
both the Old and the New Testaments
than that OF usury. The lending Of
money for private gain is wrong in prin-
ciple, and all the glamour and plausi-
bility that can be thrown around or over
it can not make it right If persisted
in, it will bring on cataclysm and end
in the abyss, and that before many de-
cades. The end will come in the en-
slavement Of the world to some enor-
mously rich family or syndicate. We
have almost reached that point now, for
no European nation dares to go to war or
undertake any great public enterprise
without the consent" of the Rothschilds
Spain disobeyed in her late war with
us, and the grip of the Rothschilds had
equally as much to do with the results
of our aims. We have shown in previous
articles in this paper that at the pres
ent rate of rapid and startling concentra-
ton of wealth, it will require only about
80 years for the Rothschilds to own all
the primary money in the world, and
when that time comes, all the races of
men will become payers of tribute to this
Jewish family, and by means of their
wealth they will rule the world

Indiana POpuliStS.

The Peoples party of Indian met as
per call, at Indianapolis, on Feb. 22, and
is now in better shape than it has been
since 1892. 1t has put all aggressive, 10y
al men in control of the party's affairs
for the first time in the history of the par
ty in the state. When such men lead
plutocracy may we'll begin to tremble
for it can make no more trades or COM
promises.
There were 200 delegates present. Tom
Lief, a democratic member of the legisla-
ture from Fountain county, and a few
other disturbers, tried to get into the
meeting by pretending they were Pop
ulists. This is the same Tom Lief who
helped to try to pack the Populist state
convention in 1892, but ingloriousiy failed
The convention assembled at the GRIM
inal court room in the court house
promptly at 10 a. m, as the call read
and waited quite a while to extend the
courtesy of calling the meeting to or
der to State Chairman Hanna. He did
not put in appearance and J. c. Stew
art, of West Baden, member OF the state
committee, called the meeting to order
and the convention proceeded to bust
ness by electing Hon. F. J. S. Robin
son, of Cloverland, chairman; L. E. Col
lier and c. NJ. Walters, secretaries. The
object of the meeting was to reorganize
the state committee and elect one mem
Der of the national committee in the place
of W. S. Austin, who had moved to Ok
lahoma.
Resolutions were adopted contending
that the way to hold the Peoples party
intact for active work was to see that
public speakings are held in all counties
and that the several party papers of the
state are supported and populist litera-
ture disseminated and read that each and
all county chairlnen and committees see
to it that the people all over the state
have Peoples party ticket emblem; that
while they ask all to rally to the support
of populist principles, they do not con-
denim those who may think otherwise,
but invite them to investigate our plat
form.
Banks OF issue are denounced as mono
poles and as a menace to republican
form of government. The precinct club
plan of organization was adopted, and
the party in Indiana was placed in the
middle of the road for 1900. NJ T. Mot

the way is now clear for pressing to sue
cess the principles for which we have
been SO long laboring. l have delayed
action thus far in order to secure the
hearty cooperation of our Texas Popu-
lists.
At the recent meeting of Our state
committee the plan outlined at Cincinnati
in September last, was practically adopt
ed. 1t remains now for us to press the
work vigorously along these lines.
You have been assigned, as you will
see, certain territory to organize and
manage, which l trust you will handle in
just such way as your judgment may die

circumscribed in your work so long as
you stand and work for straight Popu-

Write me fully and freely at any time,
making any suggestions you may feel
necessary. We want to organize as rap

Rockefeller, Goulds and Vanderbilts, &C
cording to New York papers, are forming
a combine or syndicate to control all the
roads in the United States, putting them
practically under one management, doing
away with all the competitive expenses,
such as costly city freight and passenger
offices with all their thousands of high
priced and low priced employees, all their
advertising, duplication Of terminal facili-
ties, travelling solicitors, lawyers, doctors,
cross-lobby and other expenses. That
will render all the smaller roads worth
less and they will take them in at their
own price. The managers will then be
able to control commerce in every city
and hamlet in the land, and while it will
be done secretly, they can and will ruin
every dealer who is not friends to some
of those in power. And that will put the
railroads in easy shape for the govern
ment to take then-which will have to
be done for the safety of the people All
things tend toward socialism.

And l say: The blood of heroes dyed

Who shames her? Who defames her?
Give me my gun once more!
Well answer when they need us-when
the war fires light the night;
There's Lee still left to lead us to the
glory Of the fight!
See how the old flag ripples, and haunts
her folds in scorn,
Her stars and bars will be the JOY Of
nations yet unborn;
And though she waves DER new made
graves, meath alien sod and dew,
There, in the starry silences, the grey
sleep with the blue
We're one in heart forever-we're one

The flags challenge to the sea, gar

Ingenious Device In a New York Bank
Is Operated by Electricity.
An adding machine in use in the
Union Dime Savings bank, New York
City, is operated by electricity. II
marks In a depOstors book the amount
of his deposit, and makes duplicate
OF the entry on a tape locked In a box
attached to the machine. At the same
time the amount of the deposit is au.
tomatically added to the total Of the
banks transactions, so that a glance at
the latter would tell just how much
money the bank had received since It's
organization.
The machine Is placed on a table at
the teller's right hand. In front Of It Is
keyboard with rows Of figures ar
ranged like the letters on a typewriter
When a deposit is made the teller
places the depositors book under a
cylinder filled with movable figures on
the side of the machine. Then he pulls
the figures on the keyboard that rep
resenttheamount of the deposit These
figures are connected by wires with the
figures ON the cylinder. The teller next
moves a lever and that sets the ma
chine in motion. The amount Of the
deposit is printed on the book and at
the same time on a tape locked In
box placed just above the cylinder, 50
that a double entry is made. Should
the teller make any mistake there is an
ingenious contrivance attached to the
machine that would prevent 1t from
working and thus notify him Of the
error.
After the entries have been made ID
the depOsito-'s book and on the banks
tape another cylinder is set in motion
This is in the middle Of the machine
and contains movable figures running
