Washington, January 28.—The presi¬

ing nii'HHiige oti the financial question:
To the Senate and House of Representa¬
tive*:
In my last annual message, I recoin
iir iebd to thy serious consideration of
the congress the condition of our na¬
tional finances, and in connection with
the subject indorsed the plan of currency
legislation which, ut that time, seemed
to furnish protection against Impending
danger. This plan has not been up
proved by the congress. In the mean¬
time the situation lias so changed and ibe
emergency now appears so threatening,
that I deem it my duty to n*-k at the
hands of the legislative branch of the
government such prompt and effective
action es will restore confidence In our
financial soundness and avert business
disaster and universal distress among
our people. Whatever may be the merits
the plan outlined in my unnual mes¬
sage us a remedy for evils then existing
and as a safeguard against the depletion
of the gold reserve then In tho treasury,
lam now convinced that itH rejection by
congress and our present advanced stngo
of financial per; 'exlty, necessitates addi¬
tional or dlfferen legislation.

THE REAL TROUHLE EXPLAINED.
The real trouble which confronts ub
consists in a lack of confidence, wide¬
spread and constantly increasing, in the
continuing ability or disposition of tho
government to pay its obligations in
gold. Hits lack of confidence grows to
Borne extent out of the palpable and ap¬
parent embarrassment attending tho
efforts of the government under existing
laws to procure gold and to a greater
extent out of the impossibility of either,
keeping It in the treasury or cancelling
obligations by its expenditures after It is
obtained.
to issue bonds the only remedy.
The only way left open to tho govern¬
ment for procuring gold is by tho tssuo
and sale of bonds.
The only bonds that can be so issued
were authorized 25 years ago, and were
not calculated to meet our present needs.
Among other disadvantages they are
made paynblein coin Instead of specifical¬
ly In gold, which In existing conditions
detract largely and in an increasing ratio
from their desirability ns Investments.
It Is by no menus certain that bonds of
this description can much longer be dis¬
posed of at a price creditable to the
financial character of our government.
The most dangerous nml Irritating fea¬
ture of the situation, however, remains
to be mentioned.
THE MOST DANGEROUS FEATURE.
lf Is found in the means by which tho
treasury is despoiled of gold thus ob¬
tained without cancelling a single gov¬
ernment obligation and solely foi tho
benefit of those who find profit in ship¬
ping it abroad or whose fears induce
them to horde it at home. We have out
standing about §500,000,000 of on r
rency notes of the government for wla-h
gold may be demanded, and curiously
enough the law requires that when pre
■ented ami in fact redeemed and paid in
gold, they shall bo re-issued, These
same notes may do duty many times in
^^teiwlng gold from thetieasury, nor can
procees l»o arrested ns long as private
profit or otherwise see an advan¬
tage in repeating the operation. More
than $300,000,000 in these notes have
already Nxm re eomed In gold, and not
withstand.'ng such redemption, they are
all still outstanding

FORSYTH, MONROE COUNTY. GA, TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 5, 1895.
More than 1 72,000.000 of dollars
n gold fcuve been drawn out of
ho treasury during the year
,r purpose of shipments
»broad, or hoarding at home, while
learly one hundred and three millions
of tills amount were drawn out during
the first ten months of the year, a sum
aggregntlng more than two-thirds of
1 hat amount, being about sixty-nine
millions, was drawn out during thefol
low ing two months, thus indicating a
marked acceleration of the depleting pro
cess with the lapse of time. The obliga
cions upon which this gold has been
Jrnwn from the treusury are still out
standing and are avallablo for use Is re
peating the exhausting operation with
shorter intervals as our perplexities no

An adequate gold reserve Is, In all
c rcumstances, absolutely essential to
the upholding of our public credit, and
to the maintenence of our high national
cdiaracter. Our gold reserve 1ms reached
h.i i a state of diminution ua to require
kh spu i _ v it hi on cinent

methods will certainly lead to misfortune
and loss not only to our national credit
and prosperity and financial enterprise
but to those of our people who seek em¬
ployment hh a means of livelihood, and
to . tlioHti whose , capital ...... is their daily
labor -
It will hardly do to say that a simple
Increase of revenue will cure our troubles
with the apprehension now existing and
constantly increasing ns to our financial
ability does not rest upon a calculation
of new revenue.
The tim e lias passed when the eyes of
Investors abroad and ourpeople at home
were fixed upon tbe revenues of the gov¬
ernment. Changed conditions have at¬
tracted their attention to tbe gold of
t lie government. There need be no four
that we cannot pnj r our current expenses
with such money as we have, Tii ere Is
now in the treasury a comfortable sur¬
plus of more than #63,000,000, but It
is not in gold and therefore does not
meet our difficulty.
B1LVEK NOT THE ISSUE.
f ennnot see that differences of opinion
concerning the extent to which silver
ought 1o bo coined or used In our cur¬
rency, should interfere with the counsels'
of those whowe duty it is to rectify evils
now apparent in our financial situation.
They have to consider tho question of
national credit and the consequences that
will follow from its collapse.
Whatever ideas may be insisted upon
as to silver or bimetalisra, the proper so¬
lution of the question now pressing upon
u« only requires a recognition of gold as
well as silver and of ifs-im
portance, rightfully or wrongfully acquir¬
ed, as a basis of national credit, a neces¬
sity of an honorable discharge of our ob¬
ligations payable in gold and a badge of
solvency.
WHAT FRIENDS OF SILVER DEMAND.
1 do not understand that the real
friends of silver desire a condition that
might follow Inaction, or neglect to ap¬
preciate the meaning o? tho present ex¬
igency, if it should result in the en¬
tire banishment of gold from
our financial and currency
arrangements. Besides treasury notes
which certainly should be paid in gold,
amounting to nearly 500,000,000 of
dollars, there will fall due in 1904 one
hundred millions of bonds, issued during
Hie last year for which we have received
gold, and in 1907 nearly 600,000,000 of
4 per cent bonds issued in 1877. Shall the
payment of these obligations In
gold be repudiated? If they are to be paid
in such a manner as the preservation of
our national honor and national sol¬
vency demands, we should not destroy
or e* en Imperil our ability to supply our¬
selves with gold for this purpose.
NOT UNFRIENDLY TO SILVER.
While I am not unfriendly to silver,
and while I desire to see It
recognized to such an extent as is consis¬
tent with the financial safety and the
preservation of national honor and
credit, I am not wiling to see gold entire
ly abolished from our currency and
finances. To avert such a consequence I
believe thorough and radical remedial
legislation should be promp ly passed.
1 therefore asked congress to give the
subject immediate attention.
what should be done.
In niv opinion the secretary of the treas¬
ury should be authorized to issue bonds
of the government for the purpose of pro¬
curing and maintaining a sufficient gold
reserve and for the redemption and can¬
cellation of the United States legal tender
notes and the treasury notes issued for
the purchase of silver under the law of
June 14tli, 1890. We should be roliev
ed from .'ho humiliating process
of issuing bonds to procure gold to be
immediately and repeatedly drawn out
on these obligations for purposes not re¬
lated to our government or cur people.
The principal mul mterert ot thc»e
bonds should be payable on their face in
sold, because they should be sold only
'or gold or its representative, and be
muse there would now be difficulty in
favorably disposing of bonds not con
taming this stipulation.
BONDS of small denominations.
I suggest that the bonds bo issued in
denominations of twenty and fifty dol
lars. and their multiples, and that they
bear interest at a rate not exceeding 3
per cent per annum. 1 do not see why
, they should not be payable fifty years
j from their date. e of the present gen
eration have large amounts to pay ii we
meet our obligations, and long bonds are
most saleable. The secretary of the
treasury might well be permitted at his
discretion to receive ou the sale of bonds
the legal tender and treasury notes to be
retired, and of course when they are thus
retired or redeemed in gold thy should be
cancelled.

be allowed to issue circulation ud to the

IMPORTS P A YA TILE IX GOLD.
As a constant means for the mainten
anee of a reasonable supply of gold in
the treasury our duties on imports should
be paid in all gold, allowing all other
dues to the government to be paid in any

I believe all the provisions I have eug

740 Total for the day president’and §3 951 740
as to what the
Secretary Carlisle intend to do were
plentiful, but no official announcement
was given out. No preparations are
being made for a bond issue, and none
will be made until the president is con
vmetd that congress w:ll not respond
to his appeal for financial aid. Unless
this congress responds prompt^ te
the president’s suggestion, ho will,
in the exercise of his discretion
under the resumption net, direct
the issue of 8100,000,000 bonds, Fu
der fir's act there arc three kinds of
bonds he may issue, viz: Five per
cent bonds which ruu ten years; 4;
per cent bonds which run fifteen years,
and 4 per cent bonds which ruu thirty
years. As the president in his recent
message favored fifty-year bonds, the
general belief is that, if bonds are is¬
sued under the restitution act,they will
be 4 per cent bonds to run thirty years.
Everything is contingent on the con¬
dition of the gold reserve. Should the
gold withdrawals dimaiish or cease al¬
together, the president m iy not con¬
sider another bond issue no? s ary at
this time, as the general condition of
the treasury, with $143,000,000 avail¬
able for expenses and constant im
provement daily showing in receipts,is
better now than it has been for the past
two years.

Alafaha, Gh., June 22.—B. B. B. Com¬

suffered from that terriblo dyspepsia, for
over fifteen years, and during that tima
tried everything I could hear of, and spent
over three hundred dollars in doctor’s bills
without receiving the slightest benefit.
Indeed I continued to grow worse. Final¬
ly, after I despaired of obtaining relief, a
friend recommended B. B. B (Botanic
however Blood Balm), and I began using it; not
expecting to be benelitted. After
using half a bottle I was satisfied I was
being benefitted, and when the sixth bottle
was taken I lelt like a new man, I would
not take a thousand dollars for the good it
has done me; in fact tho relief I derived
from it is priceless. I firmly believe I
would have died bad I not taken it.
