Interesting Letter
From R. H. Brown
Macon, Ga., Aug. 9th, 1913.
Editor Cochran Journal:
Can there possibly be any sensi
ble reason, either National, com
mercial, Financial, banking or
public, why the United States
Government should borrow money
or pay interest? It has the exclu
sive right to coin and issue money
and is legally and morally bound to
furnish the people with suflicient
money to meet the demands of
business. Is there any more risk
or liability to redeem its money
than its bonds? The government
should issue money and redeem and
canpel its interest bearing debt —
*ml issue as much more as busi
ness demands, always carrying
enough gold bullion to protect its
credit, or meet immergency de
mands. The people are getting
tired of borrowing money on bonds
and loaning the proceeds to the
banks without interests, and then
borrowing this same money from
the banks at 8 per cent. The re
sults of a civil war that required
large sums have passed.
The present Democratic adminis
tration has come into power ma'i.ily
under a piomise to remove the pro
tective policy of the last fifty years.
If it expects to retain that power
and retain the confidence of the
people it must keep that promise.
The present National Bank sys
tem is as much a protected indus
try as any other and the people de
mand a change. No organized
banking system should have control
of the government’s securities,
money or finances —or be able to
create a scarity of the foundation
of all business and prosperity.

I hope that when it comes time
for me to pass out from this great
stage of ever-changing scenes, I
may give up my life in the service
of some fellow man. I hope that
when Death come to me it will be
in an hour when I have helped to
strike the shackles from some creat
ure who struggles in the abyss.
And I shall want no tears. —John

Willing Panhandler.
Archbishop Ryan, of Philadelphia,
was accosted one day by a drunken
panhandler, who asked, for a dime.
The archbishop gave him the dime and
said: “My friend, don’t you think it*
would be possible for you to walk in
the straight and narrow path?’’ The
panhandler straightened up, “Who?
me? fie asked. “Show it to me. I
used to be a tight rope walker.”—Sat
