But even such an outcome. or oth-
crs which might be imagined, would
not substantially alter the main re-
suit. namely. that the owners, who
ever they are. OF Europe after the
war will during the rebuilding period
be eager borrowers and will lift up
the rate Of interest.
am quite aware that many bust
ness men believe. on the contrary,
that the rate Of interest will be low.
Those who reach this conclusion rea-
son along what ] believe to be fall
lacious lines. in some cases even fall
ing into that ancient pitfall Of
thought. the money fallacy" of in
terest. according to which the rate
of interest is supposed to be in
versely related 10 the amount of
money in circulation. This and
other fallacies | have discussed in
The Rate of Interest and shall not
discuss them here.
Ii is worth noting that what has
been said concerning the future rate
Of interest applies from the moment
peace is in sight. 1t does not fully
apply before that time. During the
war itself the rate of interest has
been. a. ! predicted that it would be,

mediate comforts but relatively
rich in future expectations.
Such "a condition will make for a
nigh rate Of interest. The spirit Of
Europe will be one Of eagerness and
impotence. just as is the spirit dur
ing the upbuilding of a new country;
and this eagerness and impotence
will be registered in a high rate of
interest. as they were while our fore
fathers were making America.
II is conceivable that curious
things may happen to complicate
this result. If the war continues
much longer the government bond
holders will be the virtual owners
Of Europe for years to come. The
income tax for the rich may reach
30 per cent. The taxes on the poor
nav be equally oppressive. Rather
than pay such tribute, for a life
time. TO the bondholder-who may
not then be so popular as he is to-
day the taxpayers may, by the
Wholesale, emigrate to the United
States. Wealthy people, Of more
foresight than patriotism, after tax
ing good care to sell out any hold
ings in government bonds, may
change their residence to where
taxes will not seem to be coniisca-
ton. The fate Of European nations
would then be similar to that so
common to assessment insurance

lose their paying membership and

THANKS APPRECIATION.

Dear Sir: A friend Of mine on the
Pacific Coast has had the kindness TO
send me your delightful magazine
for several months past, and | have
spent many happy hour absorbing
its pages and have particularly en-
Joyed your personal writings. Was
deeply interested in your straighten-
ing out Of the Frank case-but more
particularly interested in your case
against the Roman Catholic political
machine, known as the Holy Roman
Catholic Church.
| consider you the ablest defend
ant of this American government
today, and write these few hasty
lines merely to assure you that | am
with you heart and soul.
l. am at present endeavoring to
interest several of my patriotic neigh
bOrs in Watson's Magazine, and have
the promise of years subscription
from two of them thus far. Expect
to send you club at a new future
date.
am not only publisher of the
home paper here, but also postmas-
ter, Mason and an Odd Fellow
but first of ali an American citizen,
and one who is awake to the menace
to all our institutions of liberty pres
ent in the Roman Catholic plans and
propaganda.
If they insist upon dragging you
out of Georgia for trial, l think it is
time to revive the Clansmen-and /,
for one, am ready to join.

FROM AN ALABAMA PREACHER.


Dear Sir: have a desire to write
you few lines First, we want to
thank you for the light and knowI-
edge that we have obtained, through
the columns of your editorials. We
do not consider them obscene or
filthy, but we do believe them to be
clean and wholesome. we are with
you to the last.
Second, we want to say 'God bless
the man that has the nerve to at
tack the old beast in his den, and
then have manhood enough to stand
at the front while the beast is raging
in his fury"
l consider the beast spoken of in
hev. 20 nothing else but the Catholic
hierarchy.
Then, Mr.. Watson, while you stand
in front, | feel that I would be less
than common man if | failed to
walk up and take my stand by your
side.
Then when the Acknowledgement
bursts forth and says he is satisfied
Of Mr.. Watson's guilt, feel just like
he has said he is satisfied of my
.
more than | would like to have done
had l the ability. Lance him in the
future as you have done in the past,
and l believe all the liberty loving,
GOd-serving Americans will be with
you.
This same old beast has Stayed
thousands in the past and he says
he never changes. So, fellow-citi-
zens, we may expect death in the
future if he ever gets in power.
feel like It is a burning shame
and disgrace that every State in the
Union has not got inspection laws
so that these dens could be looked
into just any ola time. l am ashamed
that this very bill died in Montgom-
cry, Ala.
God bless you, Mr. Watson Please
find club list on separate sheet.
Your friend,
Ala. REV. j. E. HODGENS.

The Song Of the Gift.

Writing his notes of thanks.

Where woman has never a gift to
If this is Christmas land!

Oh, men with children and wives,
How little you know Of the fearful

With brain unable to think, -

WELDING his pen and Ink.

And still with q note of felicitous
pitch, ... r
Because he was handsome and young
