Editor Wealth Makers:
In accordanca with your request for
frlondt of candidates to expreis them
elves, you may insert this letter ia
your valuable paper and express my
belief, after careful consideration, tbat
lion, Barney Johnson, Into member of
the House of Representatives of this
state, is the strongest man we have in
our state for the Populist party candi
date for governor. He is a man of
strong qualities, upright and honorable
in every way, true to the great princi
ples of tbe Populist party, pi messing
"excellent good judgment and that broad
common sense requisite for a governor
to possoss.
He was able to be elected, with a good
majority to the last legislature from
Nemaha county, as a member of the
House of Representatives in 1HD3, al
though opposed by tho combined efforts
of Howe and Majors, each residing in
the same county (Nemaha) with Mr.
Johnion, Any man that can success
fully overcome the opposition of these
two politicians will be able to defeat
any candidate that any other parties in
the state may nominate.
Sincerely yours,
TlIKODOHE F. BARNEH.

Editor Wealth Makers:
I have read with much interest tbe
opinions of many in your exchange up
on the most available candidates, and
I feel it my duty to add a word, more
especially as to congressional nomina
tion in tbe sixth district,
First of all, there should be no ques
tion tbat every candidate should be a
living exponent of our principles.
I bulieve tbe People's Party of Ne
braska will feel proud to do honor to
men who have an experimental know
ledge of our needs. There are those
who seem to believe thatthe candidates
should be men who can ably represent
us on the stump. Let us mako so mis
takes here. Tne candidates can only
be heard by a small per cent, of the
people, and tbe most eloquent and con
vincing appeal our speakers can make
this fall will be to say, "They are
honest and competent." Make a ticket
of this kind of material, and it will
draw Jibe a magnet every honest citi
zen.
As to the sixth congressional district,
I must say that Lincoln and Omaha
dailies seem mora exercised over our
business that we ourselves.
I know of no one in the sixth district
who questions tbat the People's Party
candidate if judiciously chosen will
represent tbe clstrlct In tbe next con
gress. I baneve i am safe in saying wnue
there are those who favor a new man
as a candidate a very large per cent of
our voters are very uncertain as to the
advisability of allowing Mr. Kern to re
tire at tnls tlmo.
Ordinarily I believe a two term policy
to be the safest for individual, for party,
and for country, but Air. Kern's con
nection with politics In the district has
been peculiar. He has been obliged to
fight agalB&t great odds the organized
monopoly press of the entire state.
Only recently, anticipating Ms re
nomtaatlon they have charged him
wltb dishonesty la the treasury of Cus
ter county. They have charged him
with Incompetency, and finally with
negleot of his constituency.
As to the first charge, Mr. Kern bas
made an open ohalleage, that should
either J 'ng to light his wrong or
silence aem.
As to tbe beoond charge, I hear no
complaint in his district that he has
voted wrong, uorrect voting stamps a
man t&day as above the average con
gressman, our people nave lost confi
dence In promises and are now watcn-
leg ibe roles.
As to tne third charge; it ii simply
wanton. No man coula have seryed bis
people more faithfully. No man in the
state knows butter than Mr. Kern tba
privations and hardship of western
life. He made his famous campaign
against Djrsey with scarcely a hope of
bUCCUbS.
He travelled over the "Big Third"
in every kind of conveyance aud
shared the hospitality of the farmers in
every kind of abode. He led our cause
to victory, lie has not brought to his
party tbe b'ush of shame. He has a
warm place in the heart of the people
of his dint riot. In these days when all
men are anxiously saying, ' What is
coining uexi?'' we rounwnh.-r that Kem
was one of the first to sound a not of
warning. I speak of these tfalog in
thlsoouarotlon because Ifrel Indignant

trict against bira. It is not Kem they
are after, it U his scat in Congress, aud

entitled, "Tbe Cause of Financial Panics," by
Mr. J. It. Iltanett of tit. Louis. We sball five

and trutb.-EDiTOR Wialth Makkus f
(Continued from last week.)
The lender sacrifices nothing. The
wealth which he loans is surplus wealth.
However potent as an instrument of
production In the hands of other?, It Is
useless in his, for his hands toll not.
This fact must be borne in mind: Un
less somebody borrow the wealth of the
capitalist, he must stand by and see
nature steal away its usefulness. Then
the person who borrows tbat wealth
and saves it from the decay of nature
does the capitalist an all-Important
service, It is no answer to say thatthe
laborer, at the same time, gains a per
sonal advantage from tbe wealth which
he borrows. Does the laborer's gain
make the capitalist's gain the less?
Capital cannot produce, labor can.
Labor has lived without capital, with
out wealth except the strength of its
muscles. With this strength alone to
start wltb, labor has wrested from na
ture all that there is of wealth la the
world today. Destroy every vestige of
what men call capital, and enough peo
ple would survive the calamity to re
populate the world and reorganize
society; destroy the power to work, and
in a decade there would not be a Hying
human being.
Nobody who considers what man has
sprung from will deny this. Man did
not come into a world of walled cities,
palaces, and machines. He was once a
shivering, naked savage, his imple
ments clubs and stones. His bread he
plucked fiom the trees by labor; his
meat by labor he pursued and killed.
Man always earned his bread by the
sweat of his brow or the brow of some
body else. Labor hes the producing
power of nature, capital the decaying
principle of wealth. Why, then, can
it not be confidently asserted that
labor, aside from nature, is the only
productive force? Labor oan put its
stamp on the treasures of nature's store
house, and tbe produot is wealth. Na
ture will not receive the stamp of capi
tal.
There asks: "Will an extra crown
appear In a bag of one hundred shill
ings at the end of a year? Will there
be two hundred shillings in the bag at
the end of fourteen years?" No, nor
any extia grain la a bag of corn (Bao
tlat to tbe contrary notwithstanding)..
Herds will not increase without labor
care; fields untllled will not yield a
harvest. Nature's favors must be
wrested from her b th arm of toll.
Where, then, Is the Juitlfloullon of In
terest? What ground has one for
assuming that wealth ht the power of
growth, or that its pressor Is entitled
to an increase? If wealth does not
grow there is no ethical bal for Inter
est. It U a law at old as the world, that
what a man products Is, primarily, hi.
The converse must W true: wbat a
man dot s not produce i not primarily
hi. To become his it must he given to
htm frwly, or ho nnut secure It by
fading for U that which h has pro
duced. On this basis, Interest din not
belong to tba capitalist, for he neither
product it aor give for It anjtolag
which h ha produitd II cannot, for
the captiaUl, a such, produce noth
tog. Ills capital did aot produce It, tot
capital csBBOt even maintain iUelf.
lt us allow the greatest! of )
terest himself to toll the advantage the
capitalist has rvr the laborer, ead
thta sttutlae hi reaves as to why It Is
right. These are HaMtet' word:
Usre ale to me a One of Uieui
work from iroinlng uatll night, front
one year's tad to auotHer, aud, If be
eontuutst all that which he has gained
eve by superior energy, she remains
poor. When Christmas comes he it no
more forward than he was at the begin
ning of the year, and hae no other pros
peotthanto begin again. The other
man does nothing eltber with bit bands
or with his head; or, at least, if he
makes use of them at all, it it only for
hit own pleasure. It it allowable for
him to do nothing, for he hat an in
come. He does not work, yet he lives
well! he has everything1 la abundanoe
delicate dishes, sumptuous furniture,
elegant equipages: nay, he consumes
daily things which the workers have
been obliged to produoe by the sweat of
their brows, for these things do not
make thimstlves, and, as far at he is
concerned, he baa no hand In their pro
duction. It la the working men wbo
havi caused the corn to grow, polished
the furniture, woven the carpets. It It
our trivet and daughter! who have tpua
out iind embroidered these stuffs. We
work for him, for him and ourselves;
for him first, and for ourselves if there
is anything left. But here Is some
thing more striking still. If the former
of these two men consumes within a
year any profit which may have been
left him In that year, be is always at
tbe point from which be started and
hit destiny condemns him to move in
cessantly In a perpetual circle and
monotony of existence. But if the
other, tbe Vent! man,' consumes bis
income within a year, be has the jear
after, in those years that follow, and
throughout all eternity, an lnoome
equal, inexhaustible, perpetual. Capi
tal, then, is remunerated, not only once
or tshce, but an indefinite number of
times. So that at the end of a hundred
earl a family which hat placed twenty
housand francs at five percent. Interest
will pave one hundred thousand francs,
and this will not prevent it from bavin?
one hundred thousand more in the next
century. In other words, for the twenty
tboofand francs which represents its
labor (or the labor of some one else)
it will have a ten fold value In the labor
of others. In this social arrangement
is there not a monstrous evil to be re
formed? " ""- -
"Abd this Is not all. If It should please
the family to curtail their enjoyment a
little to spend, for example, only nine
hundred francs Instead of a thousand,
it may, without labor, without any
labor, without any other trouble tban
tbat tbat of Investing the other one
hundred francs a year, increase its capl
tal and its income in such progression
that it will soon be able to consume as
much as one hundred families of pro
ducing workers. Does not this go to
prove that society is nuralng in its
bosom a hideous cancer which ought
to be removed at the risk of some tem
porary suffering?"
Yes, Bastlat! it certainly does,, and
your illustrations of planet and ships
and corn, although they may obscure
tbe seat of the terrible disease,, cannot
hide its manifestations. The skilled
social physician can see through your
tbin mystification. You assert that
the twenty thousand francs represent
tbe labor wblob tbat family has per
formed. This may or may not be true:
many of our modern fortunes represent
the labor of others. But,, granting tbat
it does represent tbe labor of the head
of that family, on what ground of right
or justice should that labor be remune
rated more than twenty thousand francs
worth of the labor of other eltlaens?
Why is it more worthy of return tban
tbo labor-produced wealth which ha
gone to support the laborers and their
famllles The worker's strength must
be kept up by constant feeding. The
wealth represented by twenty thounand
francs is almost as perishable; it must
also be kept up by constant action. Tbe
labrrer produces more wealth with the
strength which he absorbs from the
focd which he consumes. Tbo owner ol
the twenty thousand francs, an such,
produces no wealth; neither do tbo
francs. It them He In a vault and
they would not Increase a jot for all
eternity. Store the real wealth rep
resented by them and you would have
nooo of it left at tho end of a score of
years. Why, then, shtoild we reruune
rato the owner of the twenty thousand
francs, not for one year alou but for all
ewrohy, while we remunerate the
laborer but onu? Hut we go further,
and not only compel the laborer to
make god to the owner of the twenty
thousand francs, the ravage of naUre,
but also to pay him a hundred fold for
what he produced, Inherit), or pol
bly obtatavHl by fraud or force.
Why should we plae such a prnulam
on the savli g of walih and reward Its
production so little." My ttat very oc
lloa wt assert that It 1 nore to the ed
vantage of humanity to hate wtalth
hoarded than pioducd or used. We
y tMhe wotld; "Uu who haveiawd
even so touch, as a tahorsr prod aw
twry tee year tf hi active life, ran
live all the rest of your days In ld!
ae it you so desire, and your etilMrvii's
children may do Ihesaino, Its who h
a t tft a fortunate enough to save must
divide with yet his substance, even to
keeping you In your idleness. He mutt
toil unceasingly, and when he shall
have been gathered to hit fathers, hit
children after him mutt toll; and a por
tion ef everything which he produces
Is yours, by the right which your saving
gave you. And be must not be niggard-
y about feeding you: your share shall
every fourteen yean equal your origi
nal saving, and yet your fortune shall
never grow lest. By the slmplo aot of
saying an amount Insignificant aa com
pared with what a laborer produces
during his lifetime, you have removed
from yourself and your posterity the
ourse of humanity 'Man must earn hit
bread by tbe sweat of bis brow.' Or
perhaps your father bat done It for you;
perhaps an uncle, perhaps a more dist
ant relative wbom you never taw, hat
left a small amount of perishable wealth
In tbe world, and by that act saved you
forever from the necessity of laboring,
made you a sharer la the results of
others' toil."
Te the man who produces unceasingly
but cannot or does not save we say:
"You must stay nature's destroying
band. The substance of the capitalist
is sacred; see that you preserve it.
Keep it replenished after the waste of
time and besides give him all that he
requires to live on. Then, if there is
anything left, you may take It as your
own. Hoarding, you must remember,
exempts from your toll; more produc
ing gives only the right of sharing that
production with those who toil not."
These are the speeches which we act
out when we sanction the practice of in
terest taking. Ne questions are asked
as to how the wealth was hoarded; it
makes no difference. Its possessor la
virtually pensioned for all time aad
billeted on the community. Interest
rewards capital ad Infinitum. It la
wrong. If for producing twenty thous
and' francs the laborer is remunerated
but once, twenty thousand francs which
represent the capitalist's earnings or
accumulations, should gain for the
capitalist but one remuneration. All
men have equal rights.
Bostlat has well said that things do
not make themselves and tbat tbe capi
talist baa certainly no band in their
making. He might have added that
neither did the wealth which tbe capi
talist bad saved produce these things.
Leave it unattended and It could not
keep itself from destruction. The capi
talist hat no right, tbeor to take these
things from others. The wealth which
he produced bat disappeared years ago
under the inexorable law of nature, yet
he is still living on. What an anomaly !
Can oa eat hi cake and have It too?
The capitalist does, but he it the only
example. Then it is but a trick. He
steals more cako by legal jugglery from
the mouths of its rightful owners, and
by pretty fictions convinces them that
it is his own. Better than tbe lamp of
Aladdin, better than the magician's
wanj.. evea better, far better thaktho
the philosopher's stone, is the economic
fable, by whose potent alchemy tbe pos
eteor of a little hoarded wealth can
multiply his gold ad infinitum and levy
contributions on the generation of men
to the end ol time. It is a roaglo ca
pable of transmission ithout th trouble
or pains of study. By its action hU
posterity are made pensioner on all
the generations of mon, The capi
talist's wealth Is tbe fabled cup which,
however often drained, is forever full;
It Is the pursrt which always contains a
dollar. Verily tho capitalist's scoret Is
bettor than tbe power of kings.
Hut Ilk all necromsnry, when un
veiled, it I but tho jugglery of tho
fsklng charlatan. When the wealth
which he ha savtd Is gouo, he mystifies
others and takes their wealth to supply
('place. It Is by others' toll that the
cup Is kept full. Ha shuiMus the empty
vessel into the p!ao of the brimming
goblet whhh In turn he drains. Ills

ed power of growth, There Is ao rscap
lag the eonclusloQ that Interest Uklr g
Is wrong,
Hut it Is asserted that wltbout the
(TSK'tlco of litter?! taking thern would
NO. 49
be no saving; tbat all capital would be
destroyed, that we should be hampered
in our production and retrograde to
ward the savage. Does our civillaotion .
depend for Ite existence on the
thoroughly barbarous principle of trl- '
bute taking? Why would there be no
object la saving If we could not oolleet
Interest? If 1 produce more capital
than I cssv use at present, and waat te
save it for use at some future time, will
It not be as much mine when I want to
use It, If I lend It without interest as If
I oolleet ten per cent, interest upon it?
Tho agreement for' the return of the
capital aad the paying of Interest are In :
no way dependent upon each other. One
can be made without tho other, I can
ftt now make an agreement with the
borrower that li I allow Mm to use a
portion of tbe wealth controlled by me,
he will return It to me at the end of a
certain stated period unimpaired by the
ravages of time. Interact it not a
necessary part of the sgreementt and
if that agreement le carried out, I shall
be sure of getting back all that I have
produced. This It as great an incentive
for saving aa any mortal would require.
He would, at now, look forward to a
time of ease when he might live on
wbat he has saved daring his active
producing life. He would be obliged
ts lend his wealth in order to save it.
The same security could be required as
under the system of Interest taking. -The
argument of no motive for savlag -unless
Interest le allowed for tbat
saved, implies that humanity ia to
avaricious that if one cannot get wbat
does not belong to him he will not take
care of what he hat. Under the system,
of no Interest, he who aavdt will not
get rich while be "Jollifies or sleeps or
loafs or debauches, as at present. A
soon aa he liee idle bit fortune will be
gin to grow lets by Just the amount
which he spends.. He will have all
that he. produces to ute ae be pleases,
but be must keep his bands off tbe pro
duction of others. '
Looking at it from the standpoint of
the producert, the discontinuance of the
practice of interest taking would be an
unmixed blessing. He would be able to'
use the wealth which its owneit could
not useand with It produce mora wealth
At the same time be could save It for
them from the inevitable ruin of nature
and Increase his own substance. Ho
would be released from the hard condi
tions which at present to often make
production unprofitable to all except the
money leader. The burden on busiaesa
which bow sends the eountry into
practical bankruptcy every decade, and '
makes a failure of aloe ty -five per cent,
of all busineia undertakings, would be
emoved. The toller would not be .
( roMIged to hand over hi substance in
interest to tbose wbo toll not, and would
be able to accumulate a surplus of bit
own, or to shorten his hours of toil.
There would be no drooee among those
capable of working. As soon as one re
fused to work ne would begin to eat
Into his capital, and even If tbe amount
wblch he has accumulated were up into
the millions, instead of multiDlvinir aa
at present, it would begin to melt away
irom tne ciuionesoi tne idler, it would
be only a question of time until the for
tune, However large, would be exhaust
ed, and tbe idler and his desoendacts
would sealn have to fake uo their bur
den with the rest of mankind. The'
accumulated fo tune of tne rich would
be amply sufficient to suddIv their de
clining years, and there would be
enongb also to educate their children
and give them a start In life, but they
could not grow richer thn their father
unless they worked and added some
thing to the wealth of the world. The
worthless, idle scion of a wealthy family
would be a thing unknown. No fortune
would be sufficient to bear for a life
time ths extravagance in which the
rich now Indulge, Once amenable to
the benign, unsbockled law of nature,
that man must earn hi bread by the
sweat of his brvw, the man who In
herited a fortune would gro poorer
and poorer, unless be produced, until
anally he would be obliged to work,
beg or starve. All Idlers, rich aud poor,
would be plaod on aa equet footing.
Ths wealthy idler could not save htm.
self by refuting to tend. It he tried to
hoard his wraith, oaturo would punish
Mat by destroying it all the faster,
l ack man would have just what b d
served-no moie. Why, then, should
