Are You

Much sickness is due to

Yours may be. If it is,
you cannot get well until
you restore nerve strength
Your nervous system is

organs of your body get
their power from it. IF
the power is not there, the
action of the organs is
weak, and disease (sick-
ness) follows. DR.. Miles
Nervine cures the sick
because it soothes the
irritated and tired nerves
and gives the system a
chance to recuperate.
Try it, and see if you do
not quickly feel its bene-
fetal effect.

Upon what amount Of leash" has
this been conducted? Less than

In other words, these United States
have been endeavoring to make cir

ing the annual transactions of bust

What business man with an annual

he but $4,000 of cash?
What business man with a COM
bined investment and annual transac-
ton Of business to the amount of
$247,655 could ever live with but
$4,000 Of cash?
Yet this is exactly what the pres
ent system of currency" DE-
MANDS the citizens of the United
States shall do.
What must be done in order to
meet the conditions as they EXIST?
In the first place it must be no.
ticed that, large as theabove amounts
appear, they arc very far from indi-
eating the actual disparity between
"cash" and necessary outlay" for
these figures leave out the value of
a very large portion of plant equip
ment, personal property and AL
MOST ALL Of the land values Of
unmined coal and minerals or Of I'M
cut timber; nor does it in one iota
recognize he values Of existing water
powers OF waterways.
That which must be done is to
raise u rculating medium or cur
rency 1e point of providing for
each 81 . invested or existing value,
and for each 81 Of annual transaction
the amount necessary for their prop
err o as demanded by their exist
ence n the hands Of a private indi-
vidu |.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1908-10-22

In other words, the currency
MUST, in order to treat ALL with
that degree of similarity guaranteed
by the conditions of the individual
states and that Of the United States,
provide the amount of CASH needed
by one individual who, with a plant
costing $7O,3O9,OOO,OOO, has an an
nual transaction of $177, 1860
or total basis for "demand" of
$247, 1855, 100000.
Why is this not done?
In absolute defiance Of the consti-
tuition, the present monetary system
has created "preferred class" to
whom alone "money" shall be is
sued, viz, the class who can "pur-
chase" United States bonds, them
selves WORTHLESS as a means of
currency.
This has resulted in limiting the
issue Of currency to EXACTLY THE
AMOUNT THIS PREFERRED
CLASS CAN HANDLE, and they,
therefore, are able to raise rates of
interest to 20 per cent, 40 per cent,
80 per cent, or even 120 per cent, per
year, and refuse to deal with any
person who will not pay them these
exorbitant rates.
Moreover, it has fostered that
method of "gambling" which allows
men who hold NOTHING to deposit
certificates therefor in the hand
of the ''preferred Glass;" and it en-
abIes these "high fnanciers" to do
business on ONE FIVE-HUN-
DREDTH Of the cash needed for the
continuance Of the lines of business
upon which these "nothing-worth
certificates" are issued.
A condition in which the purloiner
of merely the "name" Of the asset
is able to realize, while the actual
owner of the asset goes into bank
ruptcy.
How may a proper currency be es-
tablished?
We have in the government al
ready, the power to issue.
We have in the banks and trust
companies the power to scrutinize
the collateral offered and act as the
disbursing agents.
And we have in the incorporated
railroad, the manufacturer, the grow
er and the laborer all the necessary
collateral.
Moreover, while the prevalent idea
is that the "name" makes the "se-
curity," we have the real fact that
the SECURITY is made by the earn
ing power Of the collateral.
True, this appears not to be so, so
long as the "preferred class" can
refuse to accept security other than
that upon which they can obtain usur-
ious rates of interest; but behind this
"play upon the truth" the FACT re-
mains.
We, therefore, need but to remodel

have cause to feel well pleased Win
the prospect before them in the com
ing election For the first time IA
some years the issue is fairly placed
before them whether they or few
selfconstituted bosses shall elect the
man TO represent them in the Natoral
capital, and they will have an opportu'
nifty to assert themselves as Amen-
can citizens on Aug Sth next.
And the Republican voters OF this
District are fortunate also in that they
have for a leader in their movement
to break the power OF this official
