Populism In Kansas.
When a man assumes the role of
leader in publia sentiment, whatever
be his theories, he ought at least be
honest in his statements of fact Editor
Rosewater, af the Hee, and Senator
Allen, another populist leader of Ne
braska, are telling the people of that
state that populism has not injured the
financial credit of Kansaa Mr. Rose
water even goes to the extent of pub
lishing pretended interviews with Kan
sas money lenders, to pgove that inter
est rates have been lowered and bor
rowing of money made easy to Kansas
people by populism. Now, the exact
opposite of what Mr. Rosewater teaches
in this matter is so notoriously and
painfully true and the evidence so
abundant and so positive that Nebraska
people need not be deceived, and if they
want populism they must take it with
their eyes open.
To settle this question once for all
that populism as to its effect on state
credit may stand in its ttyo light, the
Journal presents authorized statements
from Topeka as well as Kansas City
lenders.
j. ne nrst man seen in lopeaa oy uie
Journal representative was T. It. bweet,
president of tlie Trust Company of
America, which has a paid up capital
of £"(.'0.000 and an authorized capital of
81.000.000, with oflices in Topeka, Den
ver and Philadelphia. Mr. Sweet said:
“The census of 1800 showed Kansas
mortgages to be 8240,000,000. which
was, 1 think, an excess of some $40,000,
000 over the actual amount of longtime
loans in the state then. Since then the
people have reduced their loans very
considerably, certainly as fast as they
could, and now Kansas people have
borrowed of long time money probably
about 8170,000,000. The rate they must
pay on this borrowed money depends
much upon the amount of conservative
capital which remains with us and
competes for business. Conservative
capital is always the lowest in interest
rates of all money.
“It is that money which comes from
life insurance companies and savings
banks in the east, and which seeks only
the choicest security at the lowest rates
of interest. That is the part of our
borrowed capital, which, when it re
mains among us, and offers itself in
the market, has the effect to reduce
the price of money generally. When it
withdraws, the effect is to raise the
price of money to all borrowers. This
conservative capital is always the last
to enter a new state and the first to
take fright and go away on the least
signs of danger in public sentiment or
hostile legislation. This conservative
money is never deposited in our banks
or used in ordinary business, for the
reason that it seeks a permanent and
long time investment, and is, there
fore, loaned only on real estate securi
ty. The first signs of injury to Kansas
credit by the promulgation of the dan
gerous financial theories of the populist
party were the withdrawal of this con
servative money from'Kansas, which
is practically complete. The effect has
been to raise the rate of interest on
this $170,000,000 which we now have of
borrowed money, about 1 to 13£ per
cent per annum, a direct increase in
the cost to our interest payers of over
82,003,000 annually. Besides this direct
cost in increased interest, the loss to
borrowers has been very large, because
loans, by reason of unwise changes in
our foreclosure laws,- could not be re
news, compelling many forclosurs. In
localities where populism is rank and
district courts pronounced against lend
ers. no lenders, at any rate or on any
terms, would lend money.
“I think that it can be safely said
that populism has cost Kansas bor
rowers ovea $5,000,000 annually in the
last two years by its damage to their
credit. We began business here in
1873. Then conservative capital had
not yet entered the state, and borrowers
paid 13 per cent and brokers’ commis
sion of 1 per cent per year. In 1890,
when populism began its crusade, by
the aid of conservative capital, which
was then loaned extensively here, rates
had come down to 6 per cent, with 14
to 1 per cent commission. Since the
populists have gained complete control
of the state it has been impossible to
sell Kansas loans in the eastern market
Out of the very large number of loan
companies which were operating in this
state in 1S90, I do not know of half a
dozen who are now loaning in Kansas,
and their business is so small as to be
almost imperceptible. Eastern people
have been told generally that populism
will soon subside, and for that reason
we are enabled to hold off some fore
closures and to secure some extensions,
but at higher rates than formerly.
Wherever the borrower can, he is re
quired to pay by the holder of the
mortgage, and every dollar paid goes
east as soon as it can he collected. Up
to two or three years ago, as fast as
loans were paid, the money was not
withdrawn from the state, but was im
mediately reloaned to some one else.
Now, every dollar goes back to its
owner as fast as it can get away, and
no new money comes in to take its
place.
“there is a steady drain of money
out of this state, which is reloaned in
Iowa, Illinois and other states at low
rates. The amount of money that has
(Tone east from this state in the last
three or fouryears is without precedent
in the history of this country. In 18'JO
our company here had over 815,000,000
loaned in this state, of which we have
sent about S8,000,000 back to its east
ern home. This company has not
placed a loan for over two and a half
years in Kansas, although it has loaned
largely elsewhere. There is not one of
the several incorporated loan compa
nies of Topeka that is loaning a dollar
today in Kansas so far as I know.- We
have defended the credit of Kansas for
years the best we could, and every
loan company in this city has tried to
stem the tide of distrust that populism
has brought against the state. It is to
i f , !
the borrower's interest to keep constr
vative capital In the state, for the rea
son that when conservative capital
withdraws, rates go up and local capi
tal nu-Curally charges a higher rate—
and tho small amount of local capital is
not sufficient for the needs of a rapidly
developing new state. liut eastern
capital has gone and the people ure be
ginning to understand what that
means to them and when they see the
cause I think they will apply the rem
edy. They will reject the false finan
cial theories of the populist party, re
peal the populist laws and restore the
credit of Kansas. Then and not till
then will eastern money return.
‘*1 don’t understand how any man
who has any state pride could wish to
put upon his state such conditions of
humiliated reputation and Injured
credit as Kansas has suffered from in
the last few years.”
FRIGHTENED CHEAP MONEY.
The Journal representative next
called on the Investment Trust Com
pany of America, Mr. U. E. Kail, pres
ident, said:
“Populism has frightened cheap
money and driven it out of the state.
We had 89,500,000 loaned in Kansas in
1690. Of this sum 85,500,000 has been
collected and sent east and in its stead
higher rate money has been placed.
Interest rates on long time loans have
advanced about 3 per cent We. are
now required by our eastern clients to
collect on all mortgages, where collec
tion is possible, and when extensions
of time are given the rate of interest
charged is 10 per cent. If it were not
fop the fear of populism we would be
able to loan in this state at the same
rates as are charged in Iowa and Ne
braska. There is a strong demand for
long time loans now, especially west
of the few river counties, and rates are
higher. There are only a very few new
loans being made.”
Mr. A. H. Hates, president of the
Financial association, sai{l:
“I know of no one making new loans
regularly now in this state. There may
be a new loan made now and then,
where the parties have good personal
recommendations and where tho secur
ity is prime. I know of many people
who have tried to get new loans to re
place old ones, and they have failed
and have been obliged to get extensions
on the old loan at an increased rate of
interest The uncertainty of what will
happen in our laws is what scares east
ern people.”
Mr. T. T. Gillingham, of the Inter
state Finance company, said:
“Interest rates on long time loans
have advanced in the last two or three
years about 1% to 2 per cent. We are
now renewing old loans, but not mak
ing any new ones. If you go out into
the country among the farmers you
will find out about this business.”
Mr. Van Hook, loan broker, said:
The tendency of cheap money is to get
out of Kansas as quick as possible. I
hate to say so, but it is true. We are
making very few loans—about one now
to where we did ICO three or four years
ago. It is difficult to get renewals.”
Mr. Van Hook is one of the officers of
the National Mortgage and Debenture
company.
EASTERN MONEY HARD TO GET.
The next gentleman seen was T. E.
Bowman, of Bowman & Co. Mr. Bow
man said: “Before populism hit us
here in Kansas we got money from the
east and loaned it here at 7 per cent.
Now we can get very little eastern
money at 8 per cent and upward. We
have an eastern correspondent who
promised us 8100,000, but recently with
drew it until after election.” Mr. Bow
man here showed a letter which he
had just received and which was yet
lying on his table, from an old lady in
New Bedford, Mass. She has been
loaning a part of her son's estate in
Kansaa Among other thingsshe said:
“I am willing to trust you in the fu
ture as I have in the past, and I am
willing to believe in the honesty of
those borrowers out there individually,
but please see that no loophole is left
in any of the transactions, as I do not
have confidence in yonr Kansas judges.
They will construe every point against
an eastern person if they can. ” “This,”
said Mr. Bowman, "shows what popu
lism and populist government have
done for Kansas in the eyes of eastern
people. I could show you hundreds of
letters where the same fear is expressed
of our laws. ”
The next person seen was Mr. Samuel
How, president of the Kansas National
bank and also president of the City
Beal Estate and Trust company. This
company has a paid up capital of 8100,
000. "We now have about 2,000 east
ern clients,” said he, “who are de
manding speedy collection of about
82,000,000, which is in the form of long
time loans. We could easily get these
loans extended, or get new money to
take their place if it were not for fear
of the populists. They seem to be a
red flag everywhere among moneyed
people. Interest rates havo advanced
considerably i,n the last two years. I
don’t know how much. It is a disa
greeable subject and I don't care to'dis
cuss it at length. ”
LETTERS FROM EASTERN CLIENTS.
Judge Quinton, of the law firm of
Quinton & Quinton, was busy at his
desk, He was recommended as one
whose business was extensive with
eastern clients in forecloseures. He
pointed to a pile of over 300 letters on
his table. "There," said he, “are over
300 letter received in the last few days
all from eastern clients, all referring to
the collections of Kansas loans, and all
wanting their money."
“Can’t the borrowers get new loans
of some one else who wants to put
money out?”
{ “It seems not. Now and then a bor
j rower gets a new loan, but they are
| scarce. In the western part of the
: state renewals are impossible. In a
! few weeks I have got judgment (here
he showed his judgment docket) on
j 113 loans. Nearly everyone of these
I borrowers lost the land and the mort
j gagee bids it in. Eastern people are
exercising a great deal of patience
| about these foreclosures. They realize
j the situation and an every case where
' the borrower can reduce the loan some
; he is given an extension on the bal
i ance.”
j At this point Mr. D. N. Burge, sheriff
, of Shawnee county, entered and was
introduced to the Journal representa
tive.
1 “I have just sold, at sheriff’s sale,”
he said, “a residence property in Tope
: ka, a brick house that would have sold
l two years ago at ¥8,000. for #3,505.”
j “We waited six months on these par
i ties to get a new loan,” said Judge
. Quinton, “but they could not”
! M. L. Millspaugh, secretary of the
Globe Mortgage and Investment com
pany said: “I have been here since
1887. Wo loaned up to 1800. Up to
then, we had more eastern money tnan
we could place. Now we cannot sell
Kansas loans at all. We simply col
lect and send east every dollar as fast
as possible, ltates have risen some,
where new loans are made. I think
about 13si per cent There are very
few new loans made now.”
John T. Cheeney, of Phillips &
Cheeney, said: "It would be a picnic
to make loans now if we had the monoy
or could sell the loans. We are making
now and then a loan at 8 per cent, but
it requires about double the security
that it used to. We loan only about
half on a farm that we did two years
or three years ago. We loan now only
8800 to 81,000 on a 100 acre farm here
in Shawnee county, when the land is
finely Improved. We used to loan
double that amount at 0 per cent.”
NO NEW MONEY RECEIVED.
Mr. Hilton, a loan man, said: “Our
firm, in the last three years, has col
lected and sent east $500,000 and has
not received a dollar of new money
from the east to take its place. We
prefer to reduce our liabilities and wait
till a change comes. Interest rates
have raised between 1 and 3 per cent.
It is very unsatisfactory to loan money
now, as people do not like to go back
to high rates. ”
Mr. M. P. llllliar, dealer in bonds
and municipal securities, said: “I have
just returned from New York, where I
offered some Kansas bonds to the New
York Life Insurance company. ‘That’s
a good bond,’ they said to me, ‘but, Mr.
H illinr, wo are not buying Kansas bonds,
i They are in bad odor and we can’t af
ford to have bonds where tfie people
talk repudiation, as your Kansas peo
ple da’ I could not sell the bond,
although it was one of the best ever
offered in this state, Eastern people
say to us: ‘Oo home and straighten
out your laws and the sentiments of
your people and then come to us and
we will buy your bonds.’ ”
Continuing, Mr. Uillar said: “I have
now 840,000, 0 per cent, twenty-year
bonds, on one of the best cities in this
state, population 8,000, with fine rail
roaas. 1 nese bonds would readily sell
on a Nebraska town at a premium, and
all I am offered is 05 per cent ”
Mr. Pointdcxter, of the Northwest
ern Mutual Life Insurance company,
said: “We make very few conserva
tive loans now. I know from personal
experience all over the state that long
time loans are hard to get”
WANT OF CONFIDENCE.
Mr. P. I. Ilonebrake, president of
the Central National bank, said: “I
have been a resident of Topeka for the
last thirty years. I was county clerk
of this county ten years; auditSr of the
state six years: member of the legisla
ture, and have been in the banking
business some fifteen years. I have
been in every county in Kansas, and
consider myself pretty well posted as
to its affairs. The eastern half of the
state is recuperating rapidly, as would
the whole state had it not been for the
dry season of 1804. People are paying
off their mortgages rapidly. We would
be in much better condition if it was
not for our bad credit east. Men who
are unable to pay find it almost impos
sible to get • extensions—while it is a
very extraordinary thing to get a loan
of eastern'capital to place upon farm
lunds now. ”
“This want of confidence has been
brought about by nnfriendly legislation
of the last four years, together with
the calamity wail that has been going
up from every rostrum in Kansas, and
also from a large portion of the press
of the state. We of Kansas have done
more to damage our reputation by our
talk of the last four years than did the
drouth, grasshoppers and tornadoes of
the last thirty years Just now we are
going through a .heated political cam
paign. If the republicans carry the
state this fall, as it now seems . they
will, we look for a change. If they
fail the end is not yet. The banks are
full of money, have higher reserve now
than they have bad for years, but there
is no good demand for it. People are
afraid to invest their money in any
business, for fear they will not get a
return for their investment Merchants
are running as economically as possible
and every class of business is running
at the very lowest possible plane. The
reason for this is, they have no confi
dence in the future. Should there be
more unfriendly legislation this coming
winter, the stagnation will continue.
“To sum it up, the farmers who have
live_ stock or grain to sell are econo
mizing and getting out of debt rapidly.
The business men who have resources
of their own to rely upon are better
ing their condition, but the men who
have mortgages to pay, and who could,
under ordinary circumstances, get ex
tensions of time or new loans to carry
them through to better times, are hav
ing a hard time."
uuuiuai fepre&euuiiive men can
ed on John XI. Mulvane, president of
t)ie liank of Topeka, the largest bank
in the city, and showed him the pub
lished interview which Mr. Rosewater,
of the Bee, pretended to have with
him and Mr. Uenderson, the assistant
cashier, a few days before. “I am just
now answering an inquiry from Ne
braska about that interview,” said Mr.
Mulvane, as he showed a letter which
he had just dictated to a prominent
financier in Nebraska “Neither Mr.
Henderson nor myself ever saw Mr.
Rosewater that we know of. If he was
here be did not make himself or his
business known. I would have told
Mr. Rosewater, and 1 am ready to tell
any man from Nebraska, that populism
has humiliated this state and injured
the financial credit of its people, has
cost them more money in increased in
terest and loss of property by fordblos
ures than all the combined misfortunes
we have ever had.”
in Kansas crrr.
The same views were expressed by
the representative loan men of Kansas
City, who expressed themselves as very
certain of the cause of all the trouble
in the state.
Mr. R. M. Snyder, who handles a
large loan business and has been in the
business for years stated yesterday to a
Journal representative: “I cannot get
money to loan in Kansas at any rate or
under any circumstances. My clients
will not entertain any proposition from
that state no matter what its nature is
or what the amount of security offered
is. At the same time I am overloaded
with large sums of ready cash to loan
in this city at 5 per cent and cannot
loan enough. I would not be able to
sell a loan in ths state of Kansas even
if made payable in gold, with all other
provisions that would ordinarily make
a loan desirable. The entire blame is
to be attributed to the foolish laws of
the populists there regarding loans and
the fear of eastern investors of future
action along the same line.”

The * Memoir* of Napoleon," much

his captivity in writing the acoount of
the twenty years of his political life.
So constantly was he oooupied in this

he bestowed upon it would be almost
to write the history of his life at 8k

impatient of the pen whioh refused to
follow the rapidity of his thoughts.
When he wished to draw up the ao

gate the subject; and, when all the ma

them extempore. Ho revised the man

hand. He often diotated it anew, and
still more frequently recommenced a
a whole page in the margin. These
manuscripts, entirely covered with his

It was really amusing to hear a Nash

way Judgo Avery put things through et 5

the sentence, " two years hi the county 1 v'>

Sheriff,” said his Honor, pointing to the
grunter. “ Good gracious I" muttered
nnother. "Sheriff, tnko that man to i
jail,” directing the officer to the ">««
last mentioned. "Great God," said a
third. » Sheriff, take that man to jail," *
repeated the Judge. "I tell ycr, sar,"

Americans have a level way of looking
at things. In conversation with an
American on the subject of entail, it
was remarked, "But, after all, you have
the same freedom of bequest and in*
heritance as we have and, if a man to*
morrow chose in yr.nr country to entail
a great landed estate rigorously, what
oould you do?” The American an
swered, "Set aside the will on the

ing so effective as a strength restorer

of cod liver oil and its filthy compound*. f
It rouses every organ of the body to ac
tivity, purifies, enriches and vitalize*
the blood so that the body feels refreshed '
and strengthened. If you are too thin, too
weak, too nervous, it may be that the food ’
assimilation is at fault. A certain amount ^ r :
of bile is necessary for the reception of the v;
fat foods in the blood. Too often the liver
bolds back this element which would help
digestion. Dr. Fierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery stimulates, tones up and invig
orates the liver, nourishes the blood, and
the muscles, stomach and nerve* get the
rich blood they require. -
