In the current issue OF Farm and lrcHde, the national farm paper
published at Springfield. Ohio, United States Senator Robert l. Owen
OF Oklahoma tells a follows how the c currency bill benefits the
farmer:
Under the American banking system, where W e have had twenty
five thousand independent banks, each holding its W resources, the
banks have been compelled to rely eeveraly upon their W cash re
sources, and to keep thcr commercial bills as liquid as possible, OF
short maturiies, easily convertible into cash. For this reason the bank
ers have not been able. consistent with such policy to extend sufficient
y or at low enough interest rates the class of accommodations to
farmers which the farmers chiefly need-uch as loans for fertilizers
which would be used n the spring ard could not be paid for until the
crop was gathered in the fall; such as for farm machinery, and such rs
for the building OF >ilos, or Tor Improvements III the farm which would
increase its productive power although such loans could be wisely made,
and would be safe as far as security OF payment is concerned.
But under the c banking and currency system, which will prOvid
al open large discount market for commercial bills, which the banks
have not heretofore enjoyed except in a hazardous. uncertain fashion,,
there will be open also for the banks a much larger percentage OF in
vestmcnt loans OF the character above described.
The farm mortgage provision in the currency bill, allowing mort
cages to be made on five year terms, ought to open up a farm mort
gage market which will furnish the farmers 4 considerable amount Of
money for PERMANENT farm improvements.

meets about the time the money will
reach Carson, and as it is believed
that the next body of lawmakers will
be elected on a re~trcnchment policy,
this should cause but little worry,
as the state tax rate could be lower
ed for the coming two years. With
the counties this tax rate can he
settled with no difficulty, as the coun-
tv commissioners when they meet as
a board of equalization can reduce
the tax rate SO that the amoun #
taxes that will be collected will be
no more than the budget calls for,
and the people will pay little more
taxes with the valuation raised than
if left at the old figure. Property
throughout the state will be assessed
at 90 per cent of its actual cash value.

"VAGRANT MONK" is SHOT


St. Petersburg, July 13.-Gregory
RaspOtine, known as the vagrant
monk, who is said to have exerted
hypnotic control over the car and
czarina, was shot by a woman yes
terday and is believed to be MORALLY
wounded, though no details are per-
mitted to pass the strict censorship
established by the car.
Raspotine, aspeasant, had talent
for prophesy and mysticism. He first
appeared here four years ago and
though elderly, he possessed strong
influence over women. His midnight
prayer meetings were attended by a
beVy of young girls.
For some time past Raspotine has
conducted spiritualistic seances at
the palace and his sway over the
czarina has caused comment.
