The DeluSiVe "RuraI CreditS''
Bill.


THE only hope of relief for the agricul-
tural and laboring classes, IS q Square
Deal, in the matter of getting the use of
money.
No deal can be Square Deal, so long as
these producers, who number millions, have
to crawl to the feet of few Money trust
moguls, and borrow from them.
The Government supplies those Money
trust lords with unlimited paper money, at
about what it costs to print it. Practically,
they issue and use all the paper money of the
country, and they pay almost nothing for
that prodigiously profitable privilege.
Such system is Money trust, made law
full by Act of Congress- and furnished with
funds by the q. S, printing office
To say that the farmers can get relief by
paying annual tribute to a few favored
Capitalists, is equivalent to saying that the
sheep can become wool merchants, by letting
the shearers clip the fleece.
Can any sycophant of Woodrow Wilson
give us a reason qUhy a few bankers should
monOpolize the enormous power of control-
ing the currency, and of fattening on, the in
terest!
Can any Congressman, eager to please the
President, tell US why the merchants, mill
owners, herdsmen, tobacco raisers, Labor
Unions, and Professional men should be
made financially dependent upon the bond
holder?
Let the rich lend their money at legal in
terest: let the banker limit himself to legiti
mate banking, which consists of loans, dis
counts, exchange, and keeping deposits: let
the Capitalist buy bonds and hold them, If
he is afraid of taxation, fire, flood, and the
risks of other investments.
But there is absolutely no Justice in, and
no necessity for, a system of finance which
surrenders to a small class the sovereign
power of creating and controlling the
country's money
know that in this system, they whip the
Devil around the stump, by letting the Gov
eminent buy the paper, furnish the machines,
and pay the engravers; but, as all the ma
chine-made money must 60 to this small class
of bankers, the system and the results are
Just the same that they were under the Re
publican natonal-bank law Of 1868.
The Government Arrays made the national
bank notes, just as it now does; and Mr..
Bryan fooled himself, if he thought that the
new system essentially differed from that
which the Democratic party and himself had
so long and SO bitterly denounced.
Ehe Principle of the Regional Bank sys-
tenn was condemned by Adam Smith, Ricardo,
Bastiat Albert Gallatin, Thomas Jefferson,
Thomas H. Benton, John c. Calhoun, An
drew Jackson, and by every Democratic Con
vention that ever framed platform, prior to
Bryan's surrender to Parker in 1904.

present. the highest authorities have agreed

THE JEFFERSONIAN

Regionale, and upon the currency now cir
culating. ~
Therefore, the new law will be a delusion
to the landowner and no relief to the tenant.
It leaves the Money Power enthroned It
leaves prices at the mercy of expansion and
contraction.
The borrower will go into debt on Is cent
cotton, and $1.5O wheat; when pay day comes,
cotton will be quoted at cents, and wheat at
$1.0O. Result? Ruia to the borrower.
The certainty of the debt is there, all right;
but all the rest is uncertain
It is an outrage to compel the farmer to
pay per cent to the favored banker, for the
paper money which costs him practically
nothing
There is no reason under the sun why
just government should not deal as literally
with the producers, as with the non-pro-
ducers.
There is nothing right, in making fnan-
cial~system which will enrich the non-sweaters,
at the expense of the sweaters
The men who take the sun, and the winds,
and the rains, producing the wealth of the
world, are entitled to national money on equal
terms with the men of the carpeted offices, the
luxurious bank parlors, and the Chambers Of
Commerce.
IF Mr. Vinson doesn't mind, he will fDd
Jordan hard road to travel, when he faces
his constituents and tries to justify his glor,-
fcation of that banker made new law.
The plain farmers know more about the
Money Question than the Atlanta Chamber
of Commerce thinks. The country people
were educated on that subject by the Green
hackers, the Farmers Alliance, the Peoples
Party, and the Farmers Union.
If this new law were anything more than
another trap set by national bankers, the
Chamber of Commerce would not be hiring
experts to 60 about explaining it.
A genuine Rural Credits bill would carry
its own explanation ON it's face.
The plain people are not fools. But they
know when they have been taken for fools,
and this Administration has done just that

particular material is indispensable; that it's
creation is sovereign power; that it's
quantity affects prices; and that its control
is the control of prices
To increase the volume of currency Z0aUers
IT'S price; and that fact appears in the larger
sum of money which has to be paid for other
commodities.
In other words, as money increases, prices
rise.
To lessen the volume of currency raises it's
price; and that fact appears in the smaller
sum of money which has to be paid for other
commodities.
In other words, as money decreases, prices
fall.
It ought to be obvious to intelligent people,
that the class of men who hold the power to
lessen, and to increase the amount of money
IN circulation, are the absolute despots of
markets.
Are despots of oray sort consistent qcith the
principles of democratic sezf-gouernnaemt?
Ought the laws to invest any clcass of men
with power vastly greater than those of the
Government itself?
Congressman Carl Vinson is, believe, one
of the youngest, if not the youngest, ornament
of our National Legislature. He evidently has
devoted deep study to the new Rural Credits
law, which is trumpeted in the Wilson papers
as a God-send to Uncle RUDE.
Mr.. Wilson's elaborate reflections on the
new law appeared in the Atlanta Constitu-
ton, last week Previously, the attorneys for
the Money trust had been the buglers of the
new law; and these city lawyers manifested
the most affecting affection for my Uncle
Rube.
Now that the Congressman have taken hold
of the bugle the lawyers of the Regionals
can rest awhile
Does our youthful Mr. Vinson tell us how
the tenant is to be helped by this kind of Ru-
raj Credits?
Yes; Carl tells US. In fact, I think he told
the tale as it was told to him.
He says that the tenant can buy@out the
landlord, and that the Government will lend
him the skads at per cent.
But suppose the landlord won't sell? Or
suppose that the tenant doesn't want to buy?
Or suppose both are willing, but can't agree
on price? Or suppose the landlord isn't
willing to have his land tied up with loan,
but wants all his money, down?
It seems to me that these are very practical
questions, and hard to answer.
In Ireland, the government assessed the
value of the landlords land, and forced him
to sell out: does Mr.. Vinson think such sys-
tenn would suit us?
In Europe, tenants can borrow on their
produce: why do we refuse our tenants the
same privilege?
AS Charley Barrett says, we have more
than two million tenants Are these hard
workers to be left out in the cold, when they
are unable, or unwilling to pay the landlords
price for the farm?
The Democratic party has adopted class
legislation of the most unjust kind. 1t is sell
dow now that the landowner works his own
land. He rents it, in farms varying from 40
acres to 1000

PLANNING GREAT
RECEPTION FOR
CARL MILLIkEN

Plans are now being made by the Re-
publicans of Augusta to make the meet
ing in the City hall Tuesday evening
one Of the biggest to be held in Ken
nebec county during the campaign. This
will be the only time when the Hon.
Carl E. Milliken, candidate for Gov
ernor, will be able to appear at the
capital so that it is the intention Of
the Republicans in the CITY to show
how well they think of him.
Last week, when Mr.. Millken ap-
peared in Bangor, the reception in his
honor was one of the most notable in
the State. The Blake Marching Club
turned out in force with the fife and
drum corps so that 200 men took part
in the parade. The Bangor City hall
was crowded at the time and the dem
onstration in honor of the gubernato-
rial candidate was a wonderful one.
The Republicans of Augusta are de-
termined to Guido the efforts of the
Queen City followers of the Islands
Falls man. The Hughes and Fairbanks
Club will furnish the escort and there
will be music by the Augusta Cadet
Band. In addition to this, there will be
a delegation of 200 members of the
marching club from Gardiner in attend
ance to assist in the reception
r. F. Hazard the head of the R. P
Hazard shoe factory in Gardiner, will
preside at the meeting and will make
short, sharp speech. At rally held
in his own city last week, his views on
the tariff were received with enthusi-
asm and the Republicans in Augusta
will be more than anxious to hear his
discussion Of the subject from the
standpoint OF a business man
The Hughes-Fairbanks Marching Club
will meet at the city headquarters in
Augusta at P. NJ.
