NATIONAL BANKS.
MOST behuuful System of Stupendous

Will nave 'overproduction' this year,

cheap and (as the republicans say)
nasty, and in need of protection. What
is that financial committee of the SEN
ate going to recommend? National
banks, suppose. Don't you think that
some of the people who have been so
engulfed by that wave of prosperity
will see the error of their way and come
over and help suppress the wave and its
wavers? [ think the national
banks are greater curse, if possible,
to the people than the gold standard.
believe the government stamp should
be our standard of dollar, whether on
gold, paper or silver. Let the govern
ment be the bank of issue, and delegate
tha. right to no man or corporation"
Replying to the above, we will say that
the sole object and purpose of the crea-
ton of the finance committee was to
establish the gold standard and fasten
the national banks more firmly on the
backs of the people. We are now living
under a government by and for the
Rothschilds. They are bankers and
lenders of certificates of debt called
money. In order that they might lend
larger volume of these debt certif-
Gates and eventually control the worlds
finances and thereby govern all the peo-
pie of the world, it was necessary to
limit the volume and annual output of
basic money, real money, money that
represents no debt but is free and
stands on its own bottom. According
ly, by intrigue, bribery, deceit, theft
and such other crookedness and scoun-
drelism as these people are familiar
with, they secured the demonetization
of the money that is most beneficial to
the people-namely, silver-because
this was the money that the people dug
out of the earth free and unhampered,
in larger volume than any other kind,
and had it stamped in denominations
best suited to their convenience in car
rying on their daily transactions. With
this money of the people in full and free
circulation and being added to by each
years product of the mines, it would
have been impossible for the Roths
childs and their international gang of
financial cutthroats to corner the
money market and force the people to
born wv and pay interest on rotten shin
plaster certificates of debt. 1t is easy
to corner gold, because it is the rich
mans money and does not go out
among the people; but silver is free and
easy in its way, and loves to mingle
with the common herd in dimes,
quarters, halves and dollars. Hence it
was necessary to get rid of silver in or
der that the banks might flourish, and
accordingly the gold standard came
into existence. For the purpose of still
further favoring the rich at the eX
pense of the poor, and placing the latter
more firmly under the heels of the
Rothschilds and their international cut
throats, as aforesaid it was essential
to establish and sustain the national
banks. Now these national banks are
founded on public debts, which are
owned by the bankers themselves; and
by this hocuspocus of extra financial
crookedness they are enabled to lend
their money to the government, which
is the people, and also the people indi-
vidually so that the people pay the
bankers double interest and the bank
ers still have their money to lend out
to somebody else-or lock it up in their
vaults, as they prefer. 1t is the most
beautiful system of stupendous public
and private robbery that was ever in
vented-worthy of the intricate and
scheming brain of a Rothschild. And
the worst of it all is, that the people
being sovereigns are the only authority
that can create money; consequently
the money that they borrow from the
bankers and pay double interest on is
the very same money that they create
and stand good for. All this would lead
one to conclude that the people must be
natural born unthinkers; and in an
swer to this supposition we must frank
ly confess that some of them are
If things continue as they are now
going, the Rothschild family will own
all the basic money (gold) in the world
before another generation; and when
that time comes who will be the mas
ters of all the people on the earth? 1t
does no require much wisdom to an
swer this question.-Mississippi Valley
