London, Oct. 2.-9:45 p. m.-The

coasts some times for twelve hours,
while farther to the east with the
assistance OF the Belgian authorities,
a temporary sea plane base was es-

DISPOSITION OF
THE PAVING MONEY
WILL BE DECIDED ON THIS MORN
ING BETWEEN ALDERMEN
AND COMMISSIONERS
Council Adopts Resolution That the
Money Be Adaptable For the Gen
eraI Funds If City Assumes ObIea-
ton.

A check in the sum of $500, pay
able to the city OF Hot Springs, and
representing the compromise with
the Barber Asphalt Company, In its
release from the further upkeep OF
the Central avenue paving, is held in
the hands of attorneys for the com
pany yet for some final disposition,
which the Central avenue paviHe
commissioners and a committee from
the city council hope to adjust this
morning.
The council understood that the
money was to be paid into the city
treasury when it entered into the
matter of the compromise, since the
city is expected to be responsible for
the upkeep of this street henceforth.
The commissioners were not GER
tain that 10 turn the money over to
the city would release them from full
responsibility to the property owners
of the improvement district, there
fore the matter had not been settled
The city council adopted a motion
to authorize the committee to re-
ceive the fund without any strings
tied to it. 1t had been understood
that the commissioners were willing
the money should 90 to the city, but
wanted it placed in a special fund to
care for this particular thoroughfare.
The city has already spent some
of its money in the patching and re-
pair of this street, and takes the
position that if the city is to continue
the upkeep, the city should have the
money, and as the money would
practically be of no value to the city
unless it could be handled in way
to best meet the city financial strin-
gency, the city would not profit any
thing by assuming the responsibility.
The committee and the commits
sioners this morning will make an
effort to reach an amicable under
standing in the matter, and when that
is done, the attorneys are ready to
pay over the check for the sum OF
S7,400, to be collected.

Has BEN Burbr1Glge Slapped
II. e. Coles Face. Vel?

III the trial of Bully Ben Burbridge of Jack
sonville, in the City Court, he suited that
he acaa looking for r. B. Cole, at the time he
accosted Rev. John A Hendry, and SLAPPED
lis face.
Therefore, the presumption is. that had
Bully Ben found Mr.. Cole, he would have
cas8ed Cole ,out and szapped Coles fQco
The inference is, that Mr. Cole had said
something about the knights of Columbus
that Bully Ben did not RELISH
1t seems that Bully Ben has appointed him
self to the position of the Italian Pope's face
slapper. If any man says anything deroga-
tory to Papa Sarto, OF his American foot
klssers, Bully Ben will go hunting for that
man; and II he sees some other man that he
takes to be that man, he will slap the face of
that man, although he is another man, alto
gether.
Ben wants to keep his hand in, YOU see.
BY slapping a preachers face, Ben takes
what you might call his first lesson in face
slapping.
But it is R. B. Cole whose face Ben
intended to slap. Ben's statement in the City
Court virtually amounts to that
And how does Mr.. Cole feel about it? Ben
has practically said that if Cole had been
where Hendry was, the face-slapping would
have been given to Cole.
That is a pleasant thing for Mr.. Cole to
be turning over In his mind.
He could not be blamed severely, if he
walked up to this foot-l1issing face-slapper,
some day, introduced himself to Ben, and
cordially invited Ben to carry out his threat
AS already stated, [ think there are quite
a number of Protestants, and non foot kissers
in Jacksonville whose faces Ben Burbridge
will not slap

THE JEFFER SONIAN

Government get from the bankers? Not1-
ing!
The collateral which the favored bankers
put up, will continue to draw the same inter-
est as it did before it was put up, and the
bankers continue to pocket this interest,"
Thus, with the same capital, the favored
bankers draw double interest and compound
interest at that.
They get the interest earned by the col
lateral, and. they earn compound interest on
the money which the Government lends them
on the collateral and which they lend to the
people.
What does the Government get The sack.
What do the borrowing millions get? They
get the glorious privilege of paying double
tribute to the non-producing Shylocks.
The Ruralist again quotes the law, and
comments thereon:
every Federal reserve bank shall maintain
reserves in gold of not less than forty per cent.
against its Federal reserve notes in az ual circu
lation'
Does that look much like loaning money to
bankers at the cost Of printing?
That gold reserve will be the n2oncy of
dep0sitors not the money Of the bankers
It is well known fact that banks get rich
on lending the money Of the denositors.
Even the man who gives security to the bank
for loan, generally leaves the money to has
credit In the bank, and checks it out as he
needs it. Thus the bank is always lending
the same money to several borrowers and
drawing interest several times, on the same
money.
How does 40 per cent gold reserve mega
tive get the idea that the Bankers get the
Governments money at the cost of the print
ing?
would like for the Ruralist to explain
Especially, as the banks h0ve TO maintain
a reserve, anyhow, to secure their dcpositors.
But suppose you could get the permanent
use Of 500 of free money by agreeing to let
$40 remain idle, wouldn't you Jump at the
chance?
See how it works: The bankers promote
railroad stocks and bonds: these securities
come to the bank and are bought at half
price: they are then taken to the Reserve
banks and placed as collateral. For every
500 issued by the Government on this col
lateral, the bankers agree to hold $40 in gold.
What is the net result? The favored bankers
get all the interest on the collateral, and they
get interest on the $40 that lies idle, as we'll
as on the 500 for which no reserve is required.
The bankers will not lose interest on the
$40 of gold reserve for the simple reason that.
the Government gives them $40 in gold notes
which they can use to as much profit as they
could have used the gold
Instead of losing the use of $40, as the
RMazist argues, the favored bankers get 40
other dollars to replace that, and they get
$50 besides
At what cost?

WINGED.
1t came to pass that reader of this Ruraz-
aSt, wrote a letter inquiring of the Editor, In
manner and form following to-wit:
Editor Ruralist-I surprised to see you
praise the currency BILL when it provides that
the Government loan money to the bankers at
cost Of printing and allows them to loan it to the
people and charge them interest. Please let
know whether or not I am correct in that belief.
If [ correct, why didn't you tell your readers
that it did that?
If the Government can loan money to the bank
ers at cost of printing, why not loan to the peo-
pie at cost Of printing, SO that they would save
bankers?
Money issued by the Government belongs to all
the people. Do you think it is right to let the
bankers have what belongs to all the people and
make the people pay the bankers for what is their
own? Yours for justice to the people,
Spruce Pine Ala. B. S. COX.
In answer to this "surprised' subscriber,
the Ruralist expresses its regret that any
RURALIST reader should have left the
road and gone into the ditch as the "sur-
prised" B. S. Cox had done.
Laboring with Brother Cox, in the effort
to extract him from the ditch, the Editor of
the half-a-million says to Brother Cox
"You are wrong; absolutely and unquali-
fedly wrong"
Then Brother Cox must be Very wrong
indeed.
And yet let us see of he is. It would be
funny if Cox is right, and the RurazjSt in the
ditch.
[ assert that the position Of Mr.. Cox is sub
stantially correct, and that of the RuraziSt
vitality wrong.
The Ruralist says
The Government does not '1oan money to the
bankers at cost of printing The fiat money
idea is dead.
When did the fiat money idea die? How
and where did it die?
It lives in the gold dollar which would not
be legal tender were it not for the law and
the stamp.
1t lives In every postage stamp issued by
the Government. The bit of paper for which
we pay cents is worth no more than the bit
OF paper which costs us one cent; but the law
and the Government stamp on the postage
stamp is the fiat which makes them 90, at face
v01ue
Twenty niclzels pass as a dollar, but the
metal In them is worth far less.
If the Government does not 'loan" the
money to the banker, what is the proper name
for the transaction?
If it is not loan what is it? If the Rural
ist wants to say it is q gift, we will not haggle
over terms In fact the loan is so one-sided
that it partakes: more of the nature of
Special Privilege gift, than it does of BONA
fdo loan.
Quoting from the Act itself, the Ruralist
proceeds
amy Federal reserve bank may make applica-
ton for such amount of the Federal
reserve notes as it may require Such
application shall be accompanied with a tender
- Of collateral in amount equal to the sum
