Augusta, Go., Nov. 23.—Solicitor General Joseph Reynolds established a record this week by sustaining thirty- nine out of forty Indictments Issued by the grand Jury In July last.

FINANCIAL PANICS; CA USES AND EFFECTS By A. C. To the Editor of The Georgian: I think the subject of financial panics, their causes and thsir effect Is a very appropriate subject for discussion at this time, which witnesses a most ab surd condition In the money centers of the state and the nation. The very Idea of a financial panic In the midst of the most prosperous period we have had within a generation Is preposterous and would be ridiculous In the extreme were Its effects not so se rious to the great masses of the peo ple'. What are the conditions of our finan cial matters at this time? All the money tied up, none to be had to move the great crops of the nation, which are being marketed and seeking a mar ket. as they always are at this season of the year; clearing house certlflcatqs being circulated as practlcsliy the only money available as our medium of ex change and to pay our debts and raise the mortgages from our homes and our farms. What are the causes of such condi tions? To give an Intelligent answer to this question, we must first know something of the national banking sys tem. through which the great bulk of our money supply comes to us, and something of the discriminating char acter of the national laws that author ise the system, as well as the economic laws governing the supply and demand of money as a medium of exchange. It Is an aceepted principle, long es tablished In government' science, that the volume of money controls the prices of labor and Its products In the country where It circulates. This principle Is so well established that but one writer of note In political economy has attempted to contradict It In many generations. With this fundamental law or princi ple accepted as true. It Is easy to see that with a full, free and unrestricted volume of money In circulation In the United States we will have prosperous times consequent to good prices for labor and the products of labor. Labor being well paid and the prod ucts of labor well sold, all business enterprises are stimulated—the farm er builds better homes and further de velops his farm: the merchant's trade Is good because his customers are pros perous and able to buy hls goods; bank deposits swell to fine proportions, and the money lender finds ready demand for hls money at good rates of Interest, because It pays the operator to develop to the fullest extent: the whole nation Is then happy and prosperous. On the other hand, with a small and decreasing volume of money In circu lation, labor Is poorly paid and thrown out of employment: farmers get non- rsmuneratlve prices for their products; merchants loss their trade; all business Inte.-ests are paralysed and bankruptcy and financial ruin follow In Its wake. With the two pictures above de. scribed set before us, ke can plainly see that the control' of money supply of our country Is a most vital and, therefore, of most Important concern to NEWTON. every cltlxen of our government. Would to God that every voter In America could fully comprehend this ono point. If they all. or a safe majority of them, could but see this truth as I see It. and as all honest and well-posted stu dents of political economy see It, tho present national banking system, under which a very few unprincipled and de signing men control our money supply and are able, at their own sweet will, to precipitate a money panic, even In the midst of prosperity, and disturb all business Interests, and In a measure confiscate the property of the debtor classes, would be overthrown and the laws authorising such a system be blot ted from our national statute books without delay; but I am digressing. Let us go back to the causes of the present panic. In my humble opinion, they are three In number: First. Ths rich corporations—rail road. manufacturing, etc.—having their surplus wealth Invested In United States bonds, are the national bankers and constitute the money power. Un der the laws and customs governing the present banking system, they have vastly too much control over our money supply; but not quite as complete con trol as they desire. There Is still 3346 000,000 of non-interest bearing notes of the government, called greenbacks. In circulation In competition with their bank notes. This makes It more diffi cult for them to corner on the money supply than If these gresnbscks were out -of their way. So they are using the powers they already have to cut short the money supply Just at t|tls sea. son of the year, when a great volume of money Is needed to move the crops and pay the crop debts, to make It appear to the people that more tponey legislation Is needed, and to force them to urge upon their representatives In congress to push the passage of the "currency bill," calling It "remedial leg islation.” A similar bill was before congress last session, but failed to pass. Now, left us examine Into this meas ure they desire passed. They want the government notes, ths greenbacks, all called In and destroyed; and they themselves be authorised to Issue their own bank notes Instead, giving them full control of our money supply, and placing our peace, happiness and pros parity completely at their mercy. Seconfl. They also want the govern ment to Issue more thirty-year Inter est-bearing bonds to maintain the na tional debt, upon which to perpetuate their Infamous banking system (It be lng based upon the bonded Indebted ness of the government), and to give an excuse for the tariff tax. vlx.: T< pay the Interest on the national debt.

The farmers being enlighten ed to some extent, through their or ganizations, present and past, and through the reform press, have Inau gurated plans to store their products, borrow money and pay their debts, and hold their products for equitable and remunerative prices. This especially applies to the cotton farmers. The Canton manufacturers that have their surplus wealth Invested In Unit ed States bonds, constitute a part of the money power, and being desirous to obtain the raw material as low as possible, as well as to keep the pro ducers ss dependent as possible, have, In' my opinion, aided and abetted in precipitating this money stringency just at this season of the year, to thwart the producers In their plans and to force them to sell their products at present prices. So much for the diagnosis of the disease. Now for the remedy. The money power and the subsidised press say for the people to urge con gress to pass their (Infamous) cur rency bill, vlx.: Call In and destroy the greenbacks, refund the 3110.000,000 of United States bonds that are duo and payable the present year with a new Issue of thlrty-yenr Interest-bear ing bonds, and to authorise them, the banks of issue, to leeuo bank notes, their own notes, to supply the country with money. This done, mind you. they would have complete control of our money supply, and could make and unmake prices of all commodities to suit their own sweet will. Nothing but their conscience to check them. Now Is an Intelligent people wilting to swallow such medicine as this? don't believe It. Then what? Now It happens that through the re' markablo and extraordinary business methods of our national treasury de partment we owe the national banks great bonded debt, of which bonds 3110,000,000 are due and payable this year, and upon all which we, the peo pie, the government, are paying inter' est compounded every six months. It also happens, nt the same time, we, the people, the government, have on deposit with the national banks 3171, 000,000 In cagh for which they pay us no Interest. First Dose—Fill No. I. Let us, the people, the government, take enough of our money now on de posit with said banks and pay off all the bonds that are due and payable this year, together with all the Interest accrued thereon, cancel, burn or other wise destroy them. By the time this pill has had time to digest, the patient will be much Improved. Second Dose—Pill No. t. ( Let the secretary of the treasury be ruthorlsed to Issue 31.000,000 of non' Interest-bearing bonds In denomlna' lions of 35, 310, 320, 350 and 3100 In the shape of greenbacks, declare them A full legal tender for all debts both pub lie and private, and require that all current domestic expenses of the gov ernment be paid off with them, such as the salaries of all the government officials and employees, all Internal improvements, Including public build mgs, river and harbor and the Panama canal. Also pay them out for all ths sliver and gold at the market price that might be offered from our domestic mines until a sufficient amount of bul lion of the precious metals shall have been purchased to settle all balances of trade with all foreign countries and enough gold to be coined Into money to pay off all the remainder of the United States bonds as they become due. When this pill has had time to digest ths patient will be In belter health than ever before. But that all danger of relapse of the patient may be avoided, ws will now come to Third Dose—Pill No. 3. Let congress remove the tariff from all trust-mode goods of every descriP' lion and all other goods necessary In the production of wealth. This pill, token in Its proper course with the preceding, the patient will be the llvest that Uncle Sam has ever doctored. This done the will of God will have been ac complished.
