ALI Hands Working For the
Farmers Alliance Sub-Treas-
ury Plan, Or Something
Better.

ID [ wake, or do [ dream? Do may eyes
- deceive me as to what see in the news
papers! Have [ gone crazy, or lis visions
about?"
Dadburn it, [ hardly know what to expect
another day to bring forth.
Here we have the Eminently Respectable
BUSINESS MEN Of the big cities clamoring
for the ware-housing Of cotton and the issu-
ance of treasury notes thereon.
Here we have the starchiest BANKERS
that ever heaped scorn upon the Farmers AL
lance and its Sub Treasury Plan, raising the
roof in behalf of that very plan.
Here we see the Hog-eye man, who was
most bitter opponent to the Farmers Ali
ance fastening around with the alert move
ment of bee in a tar-barrel, to establishing
the Storage Plan which we despised old Pops
begged for in the Nineties
In vain did Jere Simpson and I plead with
the Democratic leaders in Congress to set
aside one day for the consideration of the
Storage Plan which the Farmers Alliance
had suggested, and which would have put the
agricultural class on equality with the Bank
ING, Manufacturing and Liquor making class.
In person, l urged it upon Speaker Crisp's
right-hand man, Hon. Benton Macmillan of
Tennessee.
But this floor leader of the Democratic
House of 1892 positively and somewhat brus-
quely refused our request.
Things have changed Populism, the poll
tica1 off -8prjag Of the Farmers Az1iancc, has
put its leaven in the loaf of legislation, all
the way from sea to sea, and from Canada to
Key West.
Politicians keep their ears pretty close to
the ground and now, at last, we see our Sub
Treasury Plan lifted out of the mire of con-
tempt, and set up among the ideals of states
manship.
Who cares a button about this sudden and
temporary zeal in behalf of the Farmer?
Who is deceived by it?
The very men who are justling one another
III their Love of the Farmer, are the men who
have surrendered our Currency System to the
Money Trust thieves of New York and Eu-
rope, and who have imported German Jew,
the agent of the Rothschild banks to take
charge of the new Money Trust System.
No 1merican, h0n1e-ruiSed Jea0 qo08 good
enough for them, it seems.
Paul Warburg was brought over here from
Europe for that very purpose, and has been
waiting in New York until Morgan, Schiff,
Baker, Stillman, and all that robber-ga
could get the Aldrich law fastened upon the
country.
They have already taken care of these
Regional Banks where the favored few are
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1914-08-13

They have already put the Aldrich- Vree-
land bill into operation, and are receiving
from the Government thousand million
dollars based on nothing but commercial pa
per, stocks, bonds, &C.
Thus the assets Of the bankers can be con-
Uerted into money, and the banker will draw
interest thrice on the same investment.
The stocks, bonds and notes continue to be
his property and the dividends earned are
his; and yet he will draw cash from the Gov
eminent equal in amount to the notes, stocks
and bonds; and when he lends out this cash,
he pockets another interest, periodically COM
pounded.
How can the Few become other than rich,
when they earn two incomes from the same
investment!
How can the Many become other than poor,
when they have to pay this double interest,
regularly compounded?
One thousand millions of dollars-asset
currency! based upon mercantile securities!
And what are the mercantile securities
based on?
In the last analysis, those mercantile,
specially privileged properties are based upon
Labor and Land.
Take out the Labor and the Land, and the
whole gigantic Babel-tower of commercialism
would fall into chaos.
Does this new Currency System, with its
Regional Banks, do single thing for Labor?
Not q single thing, except to increase it's
burden.
Does this new Currency law and the Re-
gional Banks do anything for the Land?
NOT 4 THING!
Under Section Is Of the new law, national
bank cannot discount at the Regional Bank
any land-loan notes.
Besides, the short term Of six months would
have shut out the Farmer, even had not his
notes been outlawed from the list which the
Regional Bank may handle.
(The Regional lends only to other banks
No loan for longer than six months can be
handled.)
Thus the deadly work which the Roth
schilds began in 1870, when they sent Ernest
Seyd to this country has at last been finished.
1t commenced with "the Crime of 1873,"
when silver was struck out of the coins of
full legal tender.
1t was nearly complete when President
Cleveland coerced Congress ineo the repeal Of
the Sherman Silver Lava work in which
Holze Smith helped all he could
For one thing, he persuaded General John
B. Gordon to stultify his lifetime record, and
to vote against bimetalism, when all of his
speeches and votes, heretofore, had been in
favor of the bimetallic system demanded by
our Federal Constitution.
The equal use Of both silver and gold, in
ratio based upon commercial value was not
only provided for in the Constitution made by
George Washington, James Madison, Alex
ander Hamilton and Benjamin Franklin, but
was enacted into our very first coinage law,
the joint work of Thomas Jefferson, Gouver-
neur Morris and Alexander Hamilton.
But this system of our Fathers was doomed
to be one of the victims of the Civil War
war waged-by whites to free the blacks, and
which resulted in free niggers and enslaved
