BAD FINANCIAL JUDGMENT.

ing to the Unnecessary
stamp Tnx.

The stamp taxes. which were i'm
posed solely as means of raising war
revenue, and which were TO be dis
continued at the conclusion of our
troubles with Spain. are still helping
TO roll needless money surplus into
the treasury at the rate OF $6.OO0,00o
q month.
Secretary Gage. who is consistently
wrong on every money proposition.
contended that the surplus would not
amount to more than $40 .O00. 900 in
the year The figures since given out
by the treasury department show
that il will amount TO SsO,NOO.o00.
The administration is either money
mad or purblind. There is no neces-
sity for such a colossal cold-storagc
of the nations money. 1t Is not only
foolish. ii is dangerous. Secretary
Gage cannot follow his plan of pur-
chasing bonds and paying this sur
plus out in premiums forever.
Similar treasury conditions in the
past have led 10 serious money strin-
gency. and even panics. The accum.
ulation of ssO,000,000 annual surplus
or double the estimated amount
makes the immediate repeal of some
of the present taxes imperative.

A FARMERS POINT OF VIEW.


Seeing . request in your paper from
sS.." Of Franklin county, Mo-. desiring
information on the financial question
from farmers standpoint. conciud-
ed 10 write q few lines in that direc-
ton, says . subscriber 10 the journal
OF Agriculture. We do not claim 10
possess knowledge superior 10 our
brother farmers in this respect, out
have often heard said the financial
question was so deep and Intricate that
the common people could not under
stand it. We think different. All we
need to know is what money Is and its
uses. and from whence its supply
should come.
Money is simply measure ofvalues,
or medium of exchange, that COM
merce can be carried on in all its vari-
GUS branches Money has been termed
the blood OF commerce." So we see
how important it is to have supply
sufficient for all demands; and as me-
tallic money has been the basis OF all
circulating mediums since time i'm
memorial. and gold and silver circu-
tons. we see no good cause TO drop one
and retain the other, as cheap money
is the desire of all that earn it by labor,
that is the greatest amount OF money
In return for the least amount oflabor.
We think there are but two classes
benefited by dear money in this or any
other country-people with fixed sal
aries and the money lender-all others
are far better off when money is cheap,
and there Is no better way than the
one proposed by bimetallism. Gold
and silver admitted to the minis on an
equal footing discharging the same OBJ
legations debtor making choice OF
which is to be uscd), accompanied with
paper money issued b. the government,
irredeemable (unless mutilated, then
to be reissued by the governmenD.
payable for all demands public and
private. l am one of those who think
it impossible for metallic money 10
supply medium to carry on the trade
OF the world. hence the absolute neces-
sity of a paper currency; and, IL fur
nished from the proper resource, by
the government-that means the peo-
pie that compose the governmental
would be far better than any metal
money and much more convenient, and
in the course Of time would command a
premium over all other moneys, for
convenience sake il nothing else.
How could we have a better circulating
medium than that backed by the pro-
ductive capacity OF s0.co0.oOo Of peo-
Pile? the most intelligent. get-up- and
go-ahead people on the globe. The
most serious objection we have to the
Chicago platform is the redemption
clause in the money plank or financial
plank When we acknowledge that a
thing is to be or must be redeemed we
acknowledge its inferiority to that
with which 1t is to be redeemed. So IL
the redemption clause of the last dem
ocratic platform be stricken out. we
see no goo1 cause why all working peo-
pie cannot unite on W. J. Bryan and
give him the largest popular vote ever
recorded in this country.
