The Sub-Treasury Scheme.
Editor Times-Estebprise:
While I ara not a farmer, I can
but feel a deep interest in every thing
that injuriously affects that most
worthy class of our citizens, as on
that class finally rests most of the bur
dens of the government, state and
national.
Impelled by a desire to serve them,
I would like to ask a few questions as
to the practical workings of the Sub
Trea-ury Scheme that is now being
urged as the plan for their financial
redemption from debt and elavating
them to hitherto unparalleled prosper
ity. If I am wrong in my conclusions
some of those who favor the plan can
certainly demonstrate it.
Waiving for the present all other
objections (and a number occur to
me) let us suppote that Congress had
passed the act as formulated by the
St. Louis Committee, and that Thom
as county was entitled to one of these
proposed government warehouses, who
would have the management and
control of it? Any citizen of Thom
as county ? No. Some favorite of
Mr. Buck, of Atlanta, or some tool of
the present administration would get
the place, and the experiences of the
dark days when the Free-man-beauro
was the power in the land, would
have to be submitted to, supplemen
ted by methods in comparison with
‘ "Which counttng qnoroms where no*<?
exist in fact will sink into insignifi
cance. What would our farmers
reasonably expect of the servants of
a political party who know no law
save the means necessary to accom
plish their own selfish end3? We will
be gladly disappointed if these ser
vants do not follow the lead of the
present Speaker of the National
House of Representatives and count
charges against the cotton that never
existed. And if so, what can the
farmers do about it? Absolutely
nothing. But this is not the darkest
part of the results that seem inevita
ble. Turn the kaleidoscope <>f events
"to the time when, under proposed
act of Congress, all of our seven mil
lions of bales of cotton, should they
be stored, must be sold, and see how
the hopes and bright anticipations of
a year will be nipped and blasted by
the merciless flrosts of greed and com
bination. Wall street will unite and
fix the price to bo paid for this cotton,
and fix it in their own favor, and
even though the government may
not have taken any precaution for
collecting out of depositors any defi
ciency that might exist between the
80 per cent, loaned on the cotton and
the amount realized at its sale, the
depositors will loss the twenty per
cent, between the original value of
the cottcn and the amount advanced
on tbeir hard earned profits.
At first glance the Sub-Treasury
Scheme looks promising and was
conceived no doubt, with the hope
and honest purpose of benefiting
producers, when in reality it is a
statute of Nabis. We are told that,
after Nabis, who was a tyrant of
Lacademan, had exercised all the
then known arts in plundering the
people of Sparta, he made a statute
resembling his wife and closed it in the
most magnificent aparel; that when
any one refused to deliver up his
ricliet, Nabis would decoy him near
tne statute which immediately, by
means of secret springs, seized him
with its arms and to rmented him in
the most excruciating manner with
barbed points and prickles hid under
the clothes.
Need I draw the parallel? Insatiate
greed and power have plundered pro
ducers until resistance has been pro
voked, and determination to no longer
submit has taken hold of honest toil
ers. When lo, this same tyrant
comes, with its ingeniously contrived
government warehouse, richly clothed
with flattering promises of good to
the depositors; yet when the crucial
test arrives Wall Street will touch
the secret spring of the combination
and arms of the monster will encircle
these confiding producers and their
substance, and the barbed points
and prickles of conspiracy and combi
nation and aggregated money will
pierce them through and through.
The farmers will, themselves, have
mads it possible for Wall Street to ab
solutely fix the price of their entire
crop of cotton by this piling it up in
gorvenment warehouses and providing
for a forced payment. This lamen
table conditioi of things would be
very much more difficult, if not im
possible of accomplishment, under the
existing methods of disposing of the
crop.
In the light of these conditions, I
can but say, BEWARE!
No Politician.

Hon. Clark Howell.
The Tribune of Romesays: “There
is general belief in the State that
Hon. Clark Howell will be returned
to the Legislature from Fulton, and
that he will be a candidate for Speak
er of the House.” *
Clark Howell is not only a good
parliamentarian, but he is both brainy
and ready. He fitly represents the
young democracy of Georgia. If he
goes to the next house, and every
thing points that way, ho will be a
formidable competitor for Speaker
of that body. Aud be would make a
good one.
