Nuts To Crack
The Oregon Alliance Herald
takes up the assertion of a
prominent loan agent that one
good crop with fair prices will
destroy the industrial agitation
and asks the following ques
tions:
We should like to ask if one
good crop whit fair prices will
distroy railroad extertion?
Will it equalize the burdens
of taxation?
Will it stop usury extortion?
Will it do away with child
labor?
Will it give work to ’the mil
liens of idle men in the country
iit remunerative wages?
Will it give the millions offe
rnale emplooes living wages?
Will it destroy speculation in
land, the heritage of God’s chil¬
dren?
Will it destroy speculation in
the food prod vets of the world?
Will it prevent the lookout of
honest working people, thereby
forcing up prices by limiting
the
Will it supply school facili¬
ties to to the millions of children
nyw crowded out?
Will it destroy the robbery
that now exists in every granch
of the public service, wringing
millions out of the people to
satisfy the greed of a lot of
slick schemers?
Will it secere an equal and
equal and exact administration
of justice to all people alike?
Will it shorten the hours of
toil.
M ill ir correct all or any of
the demandable ills that have
grown out of past political ad¬
ministrations of this country?
The time has passed when
the farmers will be satisfied
with the mere fortune of good
crops for a seoson. what they
demand, and, mark you, what
they are going to have, is the
right of American citizenship
and a just distribution of the
paodubts of labor. A reform is
coming, a reform which is too
deep seated in men’s minds to

Effects of Financial Mana T
gem exits.
Only a few people who have close
iy observed the operation of our na
tionai financial system are conver
versaut with its effects upon the
business and property of the country
generally. Observation alone tea
ches that great changes have taken
and are taking place; that property
is passing out of the hands of one
class into the hands ofanoiher class;
that large cities, money centers, and
large corporations are rapidly grow¬
ing richer; and the rueal districts
poorer; that a Jimitcd lew are be
coming possessed of piled up millions
and the laboring masses of the
country becoming poorer and having
an increasing struggle against ad¬
versity. While some of the causes
of this struggle by the laboring peo¬
ple may be in a measure attributa¬
ble to themselves, other causes are
operation to bring this about.
A closo scrutiny of the following
compiled facts anil figures will show
that our financial system has some¬
what to do in oppressing the laboring
classes.
‘ In 1806 the farmers owned 70 per
cent, of the property in Georgia, and
the farmers of the United States
owned 68 per cent, of the entire pro¬
perty of the country.
Today on Ip 28 per cent, of the peo^
pie ow n homes, and in Georgia only
24 per cent of the property is held
b}' farmers.
In 1842 Charles Dickons said a
tramp in this country would be as
strange a sight as a flaming sword
ut midday in the heavens. In 1876
there were 3,000,000 tramps in the
United States.
The towns and cities of Georgia
have Srown at the expense of the
country. In ten years the property
in towns anp cities has increased
$50,000,000.
In 1866 me congress passed the
lamous contraction act. It was not
rigidly entorced, howevdr, until 1868
In 1866 the total circulation was
$1,693,279,573, amounting no$52 per
capita. In ten years the circulation
fell to $456,549,097, and the money
in circulrlion was reduced to $5,45
per capaita.
In eleven years there was lost by
“contraction” of the currency a total
of $10,146, 687,415, shared by the
people as follows:
Lost by business men, $1,394,751-*
177
Lost by farmers, $3,044,935,297.
Lost by laboring classes, $4,800,^
000 , 000 .
The circulation and its effects
upon the lime is shown by the fol
lowing table:
1811—$28,000,000—Hard times.
1816— 110,000,000—Good times.
1818— 40,000,000—| ianio.
1832- 60,000,000—Fair times,
J 837— 150,000,000— Boomi n g
times.
1843— 58.000.000—panic.
1847— 105.000,000—Good times.
1857— 215,000,000—Bo o m i n g
111116-=.
1858— 150,000,000—Panic
1865—$1,651,282,373, 5 3 0
failures—Booming times.
1873—$739,219,000, 5,1 8 3

1878—$794,443,000, 8,8 7 2

Ella Wheeler Wilcox comes
out strongly in support of Kate

Why Not The Sub-Treasury
•fV*
Because, with this crop of 550,
0.00,000 bushels of wheat, it would
put $150,000,000 more into the pock¬
ets of the farmers, ami yet wheat
has not cost the consumer one cent
more on the bushel.
It would never do to have such a
plan in operation!
Because it would give the south
ern produces full}' $75,000,000 more
on the eotton ctop—and yet cotton
costs the mills not a cent more per
bale—lifting untold mortgages from
those southern plantations.
It would never do to let the toil¬
ing people open such a dorway to
prosperity and independence.
Because it would distribute ten
billion dollars of the accumulated
bank welth and stock wealth over
the great levil of anxious human
hearts—to lift them into an atmos¬
phere now yrho'ly unknown!
It would never do to encourage
such wild and crazy dreams that!—

The Republican party cannot ad¬
vance a single claim to the right of
continuance in power. It has been
given a fair opportunity to prove its
tittle to public confidence, and dur¬
ing the year of its power it has over
and over again played into the hands
of party tools and machine politicians
who have robbed the people. The
battle of this year will be fought by
men who are willing to serve the peo¬
ple in the interest of the people, aga«
inst men who scramble for office for
the money they can get out of it; in
other words by honest men against
thieves.

1 am glad to testify that I used Pastor Roe
uig’s Nerve Tonic with the best success for
sleepless uess, and believe that it is a really
great relief for suffering humanity.
E. PRANK, Pastor, Keylertoa, P. O., Pa.
Waudock. Mo., Oct, 11, ’90.
Aliout five years ago I became affected, through
excessive smoking, with a nervous stomach
treuble (dyspepsia/. Jiy health broke down
completely, I lost my appeiite, and iu conse¬
quence became very weak : I coaid not sleep at
all, and nervous sufferings and symptoms were
innUiuerable. Four doctor®, all known dyspep
-ia rt'metiieo and also electricity affordt ii me no
relief. As a last resort, just a year ago, 1 or¬
dered si tae of Fastor Koenig’s Norve Tonic,
the second dose relieved my pains, and afiec
using only a few bottles I am entirely cured. I
eert-dy that Pastor Koenig s Nerve Tonic has
proven but not only a grea: and beneficent remedy,
also entirely harmless.
