Reconstruction Of Europe.

Southern people know what recon-
struction means. ..
The close of the Civil War left the
people of the south bankrupt and des-
titute.
A rich and prosperous section was
reduced to poverty.
A people who were previously de-
pendent upon no man for things ma
terial was then dependent upon our
selves for everything material.
The south had the land and the
labor for the production of cotton; but
it had no cash capital with which to
purchase the supplies necessary for
the work.
The world needed cotton and was
compelled to have cotton.
Because of inability to- get cotton the
mills of Europe were at a standstill
and hundreds of thousands Of people
were out of employment.
The situation among the British
spinners was almost as desperate as
was the situation among the southern
people.
Aside from the consideration of
profits it was necessary to have cotton
to put the spinners Of England to
work. A hungry people is always
more or less dangerous.
The need in the circumstances was
money, which England has in abun-
dance.
Out of this situation grew what
was once known as the crop lieu
system.
England lent money to New York
bankers, who lent it to New York
merchants. New York merchants
bought goods with the money and sold
the goods to the Southern merchants
on credit.
The southern merchants bought on
credit because they had no cash.
AS security the merchants gave their
promises to pay cash backed by the
promise of the farmers to raise cotton.
The man who raised the cotton had
