PEOPLE’S PARTY PAPER. ATLANTA. GEORGIA. FRIDAY, JUNE 23, 1893.
A Chapter of History.
St. Louis Republic.
Like some other people, General
Jackson was very liable to be influ
enced by those with whom he ate his
lunches and smoked his pipe. He
knew nothing whatever about finance
and so it was easy for the financiers
who had stood by him in his tight
with the National bank to use him as
they pleased. Democratic in all his
ideas, and absolutely fearless in car
rying them out, he became great,
not through special knowledge of
any one subject, but through his de
votion to the cause of the people.
An autocrat himself, he hated op
pression and oppressors with an un
relenting hatred, and when he found
the United States Bank usurping the
control of the country he saw very
clearly that it was his duty to over
throw the bank at all hazzards, and
he did it accordingly. In doing it he
did liberty in America and the world
a service of incalculable value. The
common people of his time were not
mistaken in their instinct. They very
seldom are mistaken in the instincts
by which they know their friends,
and they knew Jackson was their
friend to any extremity. The gaunt,
determined old Tennesseean had the
most sovereign contempt for those
who estimated worth by wealth, and
he was never afraid to array himself
on the side of poverty and rags
against purple and fine linen. It is
true that he discovered the Pluto
cratic usurpation of the National
bank by the fact that it had tried to
defeat him, Andrew Jackson, the dis
interested friend of the people, but
it never entered into his mind to
conceive that there was anything
selfish in his resolution to destroy
the bank. He thought its destruc
tion necessary for the preservation of
the liberties of the people. And it
was.
Certain State bankers who agreed
with Jackson that the National bank
was a danger to the country were re
garded by him as men of the purest
disinterestedness. This was a matter
of course. All who were on his side
in a great fight for the enfranchise
ment of the people seemed to him to
be patriots, moved by the noblest
motives. In this respect, as in others
history is continually repeating itself.
It happened after Jackson had
overthrown the National bank, or at
least had given it its deathblow by
withdrawing the Government depos
its, that the eminently pure and pat
riotic Napoleons of Finance in cer
tain Jacksonian State banks had
very little trouble in convincing the
Kitchen Cabinet that the only way
to save the country was to put the
deposits in their banks. Henee orig
inated the phrase “Pet banks,” which
survives even to this day.
Now, what these Pure and Patri
otic Ziixiii Dwigginses intended, to do
was to relieve a financial stringency
by a method which would incidentally
give them large dividends on their
patriotism—dividends to which they
held themselves entitled under the
rule against muzzling the ox that
treads out the corn.
On getting the Government specie
they proceeded to relieve the strin
gency in the West, “more especially
m the more sparsely settled States,”
in the most benevolent way imagin
able. The West had been demand
ing more good money. So these pat
riots proceeded to issue somewhere
from five to fifteen dollars in their
own notes on every dollar of the
Government specie deposited with
them. These notes they shipped
West on the financial theory that
“Now is Forever,” calculating that
it would take a long time ‘for them
to get back.
By the banks or by others these
notes were invested in Government
lands in Indiana, Ohio and other
Western States, where Government
lands were then being sold at nomi
nal prices in order to induce settle
ment and secure revenue.
The arrival of the fresh paper
notes from the Patriotic and Disin
terested Friends of Sound money in
the Northeast produced great activi
ty and great satisfaction in the West
and the Government revenues were
swollen by the receipt of large sums
in the notes of the Patriotic Jackson
ian banks.
The Patriotic Financiers of the
Pet banks congratulated their friends
in the Cabinet and in the Kitchen
Cabinet, who in turn congratulated
Jackson. That splendid old Demo
crat and magnificent fighter was
never better pleased in his life than
in finding that his judgment of his
merits as a financier had been thus
triumphantly vindicated. He took
his feet down from the mantle,
knocked the ashes out of his Pow
hatan pipe and proceeded to add a
section to his message congratulat
ing the country on the increased re
ceipts of the Treasury and the great
activity in the West—both clearly
the results of his financial policy.
This went on until he was about
ready to retire and had selected Van
Buren for his successor. Then the
notes began to get back from the
West into the Federal Treasury and
into private hands for redemption
and the Patriotic Napoleons of Fi
nance in the Andy Jackson patriotic
State banks began to find it mighty
hard work to get them back West
again without paying out more cash
to float them than they liked to part
with. As the difference between cash
and currency began to develop (as it
is being developed now when silver
is deprived of its power of cash and
turned into mere currency) the orig
inal stringency recurred with such
exaggerations as well be imag
ined.
About the time Jackson was ready
to let his mantle descend on Van

State and Federal.
Buren he discovered that the Pure
and Patriotic Andy Jacksonian Pet
Bankers had used his long Tennesee
fingers to pull out very hot financial
chestnuts. What oaths he swore,
what inprecations full of the reek of
the New Orleans trenches he called
down on finance and financiers is not
recorded, and perhaps it is better so.
At any rate, he issued his Specie cir
cular and went back to Tennessee to
smoke his pipe in retirement, leaving
his protege, Van Buren, to “hold the
bag.”
It was an undertaking of great
difficulty. As soon as specie only
became receivable for Government
dues the notes of the Patriotic Pet
banks began to return from the West
in the most alarming quantities and
in a little while the Pet banks discov
ered that sound financiering required
them to suspend specie payment.
And so Van Buren inherited a panic
which came near closing every bank
in the Northeast.
Once more we have with us these
Patriotic Napoleons of Finance with
their plans for the relief of the coun
try. It will be interesting to watch
them. Perhaps they will find that
the people have learned something
about finance since the time of Jack
son. At any rate, may Jackson’s so
stormy soul have rest and his ashes
peace! He loved liberty and he
loved the people better than anything
else in the world—except the one
thing of having his own way.
Mississippi Resolutions.
The following resolutions were
unanimously adopted by a rising vote
by the Pontotoc County (Miss.)
Alliance No. 448 at a regular meet
ing on June 8, 1893 :
Resolved, 1. That we fully and
unequivocally indorse the platform
adopted by the National Alliance at
its recent meeting at Memphis,
Tenn.
2. That we fully indorse the Na
tional Alliance Executive Committee
in discontinuing the National Econ
omist as the National organ of the
Alliance.
3. That we are m full accord with
and will support and sustain our
National officers, and especially our
worthy National President, against
the unjust attacks now being made,
and any that may be made of like
character by C. W. Macune and the
National Economist, or any other
newspaper that is or may here
after be engaged in such unjust at
tacks.
4. That we hereby instruct our
delegate to the State Alliance to vote
o # . .
for no motion or resolution in con
flict with the above, and that he vote
for no person as a delegate to the
National Alliance who will support
or vote for any motion or resolution
in conflict with the foregoing or take
any action whatever in conflict with
the spirit of the same.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, us they cannot reach
the diseased portion ot the esr. There is
only one way to enre Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed conditisn of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever ; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars free.

Kansas the Battle Ground-
An effort is persistently made by old
party papers to create the impression that
the voters of Kansas have returned to
their former party affiliations. To con
trovert this you need only to
INFORM YOURSELF
as to what is really happening by send
ing for the
WEEKLY TRIBUNE,
Junction City, Kansas. SI,OO will pay
for one copy one year.
The TRIBUNE is recognized as the
pioneer People’s paper of Kansas, having
stood consistently in line with the reform
principles for over 19 years. It has earned
a national reputation under the staunch
editorial management of Hon. John
Davis, twice elected (in 1890 and 1892) to
represent the sth Kansas district in Con
gress. The paper will remain his per
sonal organ during his congressional
term, and his contributions to its columns
will be frequent, lacking nothing in old
time vigor. The spirit and tone of the
paper will advance with the progress of
the Industrial Movement, and any one
desiring to keep abreast of the times will
do well to send postal for sample copies,
mentioning The People's Party Paper,
or remit as above, SI.OO for a year's sub
scription, or 25 cents for a trial trip of
hree months.

THERE IS A WIDE DIFFERENCE
between a Piano that is not right in any one essential and one
that is right in all respects, particularly in tone, touch and
durability. Viewed apart you may not notice the difference.
Buy the one lacking in essentials, and compare it with
P i ano.
and then the difference will be apparent. The strange thing
about it is this: You are sure to be asked nearly as much
for the cheaper as for the better piano. This seems incredible
