1T Is possibleEto repeat the opera
tion In the selection Of candidates for
the executive and legislative conduct
and control Of every state and nauni-:
cipulity in the United States, and with
sufficient number Of dollars to steer
the doings of the lawmakers and law
enfcrcers Of the national, state and
municipal governments of the people.
and a sufficient proportion of the court
decision to make absolute any power
created by such direction.
Make Cash Out of Nothing.
u shall go further and say that there
exists today uncontrolled in the hands
of set of men power to make dol
lars from nothing. That function Of
dollar making which the people believe
Is vested in their government alone and
only exercised under the law for their
benefit is actually being exercised on
an enormous scale by a few private In
diviCuals for their own personal bene-
f1t.
'"This, am we'll aware is a startling
statement, but not more so than the
facts which support it. Throughout
the country today we have all grown
accustomed to the spectacle Of men
who, poor yesterday, today display
| more dollars than the king and queen
OF olden times controlled. In Haunting
this money these men proudly boast:
1--WE made all this in a night, and are
going to multiply it five or fifty fold
tomorrow night
Il can better set before my readers,
this trick OF finance by which made
dollars are brought into existence by
an illustration than by any process Of
definition. Let us suppose that the
United States government at Washing
ton. the only power legally entitled to
issue money for circulation among the
people, puts forth a particular $4,000.
Instance in Point.
"B a western farmer, tills his soil
and receives, by the sale of his wheat,
the particular $4,000, which he then
deposits In the bank. The bank, being
a part Of the government machinery,
only receives, holds and uses the $1O,-
900 under safe guards provided for by
the laws Of the land, so hereafter BIS
material life is conducted on the basis
that he Is the full and actual possessor
of $4,000. At this stage enters C
the Private Thing.
&C purchases with $4,000 (B's money!
which he borrows from the bank a
copper mine, depositing the title which
he receives from the seller with the
bank as collateral for the $4,000. AZ
ter purchasing, he arbitrarily calls the
copper mine worth 10,000-arbitrarily
because his act Is not controlled or
| regulated by any Of the laws of the
land-arbitrarily, because the actual
cost $4,000 is his secret and his alone.
Then, arbitrarily, c organizes his So, 800
of copper property into art. Arbitrary
Copper Company and Issues to himself
| a piece Of paper which he arbitrarily
stamps 10000 stock dollars This he
takes to the bank, and, by loan or 9TH
| er device, exchanges it for the remain
Efng $6.700 belong to B, and thereafter
&c conducts his affairs on the basis
}sthat he is the possessor of $4,000, his

DECATUR THIS MONTH

Present conditions and preparations
all point to great meeting in Deca-
catur Feb. % to -. when the 9th annu-
al roundup meeting of the Illinois
Farmers institute will be held.
1t is fast becoming realiZed-and
happily so. that there is one vocation
in which men engage-that of farm
ing, which cannot be bounded by
methods nor tied by precedents-One
which is as elastic and untrammeled
and as unconventional as the blowing
of the winds. 1t is an art founded on
the inter-reIationship of many scienc-
es. 1t has come to be recognized
that these sciences coupled with the
good business methods must be util-
lied and practiced in order TO attain
success and keep pace with the march
| of modern progress. And so it is that
the intelligent and progressive men in
every county in Illinois meet to dis
cuss. in their respective county insti-
tuteS. the great questions of vital i'm
portance to them in their vocation,
and now that all, or nearly all. of
these meetings have been held for this
wear. delegates from the county insti-
tutes and kindred organizations, their
| friends and fellow workers and all
who can spare the time will meet III
one grand roundup gathering, there
| to compare notes and learn OF results
achieved.
The board Of directors of the Illinois
| Farmers institute. through its pro-
gram committee. its superintendent
| of institutes and secretaries have pre-
| Dared a three-IaVS' program, the like
| of which for excellence, interest and
practical instruction has never be-
| fore been offered.
| There will be class work each morn
ing on corn culture. live stock. hOrti-
culture, poultry, dairying and domes-
tic science These classes will be
under the immediate direction of the

Fresh Fruit Exhibit.

According to reports that have
reached NJ. f. Johnson, of Fern
Creek, the president of the Ken
lucky State Horticulture Society,
the State never had more fatter-
ing prospect at this time of the
year for a fine crop OF fruit than it
now has; Mr.. Johnson, who is
also chairman of the horticultural
Committee of the Kentucky Exhibit
Association, is taking advantage of
his flatterlng prospect to arrange
for a fresh fruit exhibit at the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition for
the entire Worlds fair period after
fruit begins to .ripen. The exhibit
will be opened promptly on April
80, with cold storage fruit, 100 bar
rels of apples and pears having
been stored during the last fall.
Mr. Johnson has just issued a cir
cnlar to fruit growers and persons
interested in the EXHIBIT in every
county in the State, asking that an
organization be perfected at once,
so every county may be given rep.
resentation in the fresh fresh fruit
display. After organizations are
perfected minute instructions are to
be issued. All shipping charges
are to be paid by the Kentucky Elk
hibit Association.

FROM EVERY SECTION.
Exhibits Already Arranged For
From Nearly ali the Counties.


Since the Kentucky Exhibit AS
sociation has succeeded 10 raising
the fuli amount 500, GOO for Civ
ing Kentucky representation at the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition,
us entire efforts henceforth are to
be directed towards the gathering
of the exhibits from every county in
the State. lthas arranged Tor dis
plays from all but sixteen counties.
Committees are now az work in
these sixteen counties and It is
evident that before the Worlds
Far opens on April 80 every coun-
ty 10 the State will have represeu-
tation. The association is hoping
that this representation Will be ad-
equate. 1t wants TO give to every
county space sufficient for an at
tractive display Of its products and
resources, believing that great
good VIII result from such exhibits.
The association has committees at
work in every county and urges
citizens generally to come forward
at once with any exhibits they may
think worthy OF space at the exposi-
ton, turning them over either to
the World S fair committee or send
ing them direct to the Kentucky
Exhibit Association at Louisville.
In addition to the exhibits to be
made IN the Kentucky building,
which structure is about completed,
the ASSOCIATION has been allowed
from l 900 to 1000 square feet in the
main exhibit palaces in which to
make creditable displays of KY. S
products and resources. 1t behooves
the citizens OF our county to come
forward with everything that
would interest an exposition visitor.
No time is to be lost, as all ex.
hibits should be in Louisville not
later than April 1st-the sooner the
better.
