Hamilton County Register. Interest and Usury Synonymous Editor Wealth Makers: The words interest and usury are in tensely synonymous; but in these later days certain interested persons are very anxious to make it appear that the two words have a totally different meaning. And when we use the word usury it moans unlawful interest or an over-charge for the use of money or property which has been allowed by the state governments. So surreptitious and subtle is this defi nition of these two words, that the whole masses of the people have become debauched in their usage of these words. That this is self-evident let anyone, more especially a believer in the bible, reud that ancient record of moral ethics and see if he can And any excuse, for such definition. There usury is forbidden, and denounced most bitterly. And there . no differentiated meaning between these two words. Again let any reader of Shakespere read his Merchant of Venice, and there we see that Shakespere has no separate vocabulary for these two words, for he gives out through his celebrated charac ter, hhylock, the real animus that moves the breed of men who draw up bonds for a pound of flesh, lie careful to note the true hatred thatthisrepresentative man Shylock, had to Antonio. "I hale him," says huylocK, "tor he is a Christian But more for tha in low simplicity, he lends out money gratis and brings down the rate of usance here with us in Venice." And in finishing up his diatribe on An tonia, he says: "He rails even there where merchants most do congregate on me my oargains and my well worn inriic, wnicn ne cans interest." lou gee here, that bhakespere evidently places tnese two words as synonymous, for h speaks ot usauce and interest as inter changeably the same. Itseems to me. if our Deonle would onlv follow out in their general government Antonio's plan of action, that instead of state laws on usury it would loan mouey out to the people, at a one per cent rate, that all this hue and cry of bonds, bonds, bonds, everywhere, would be utterly aooiisned.

Democratic principles and the welfare of the people are synonymous. And thefree coinage ot silver is an economic proposition and a financial policy that is as much in har mony with what democracy stands for as is tariff for revenue and the full recog nition ot tne rights of all the people. natever is calculated to benefit the peo pie is based upon democratic principles ana any departure irom them is a mis take. , 1 he greatest good to the greatest number, together with the broadest free dom and liberty, is the foundation stone of democracy, and if the free coinage of silver shall broaden the people's oppor tunity for property gain and better busi ness and social couditions the people piust look to the Democratic party for it. uut not merely look and ask. They must join its ranks and work in harmony tor the general good of the whole country." Ihe Democrats are divided; part of them are worshiping the golden calf with the Republicans, and the balance have gone and worshiped the silver calf; they do not seem to want anything else, you see. Bryan claims to be in favor of the new one-plank silver platform party, then comes out and says it must be done through the Democrats.

I am in favor of V every plank in the People's party plat form. And nowthechurch people. Stop, think, consider, look around you, "Where are we at?" Are we living or doing as we should? We are devouring one another. We are commanded not to take usury. How many church people obey ? How many church people are bankers? How many uphold taking usury? Do you mean to say you love me when you intend to rob me? Do you love your neighbor when you uphold any robbery system or vote for those that uphold robbing one another? G. E. Ingham.

Franklin county is waking up to the duty of organizing to fight the foes of freedom, and had a good county Alliance with nine Alliances represented, and more reported they would organize soon. iawson county reports that thpy are holding their members well. Their lodges are growing in interest and they say, "Dawson county is in the reform move ment to stay." "Success to the cause we advocate is our watchword." NEW RITUALS. The new Alliance and Aid Rituals and secret work are about ready to send from the natioual to the various state head quarters. As soon thereafter as practi cable an Alliances who have paid dues or notified us that they are keeping up their organization but uuable on account of drouth to pay dues will be supplied. Re member to report whether dues are sent. or not. We need to know just what Alii ancesareand what ones are not alive and ac.tive, and once every three months is none too oiten to near irom each sec retary. Da more than fill out the blank if possible. Let us know what subjects your Alliances discuss, what use you mace oi tne manual, wnat enorts you are making toward a reform library, etc., etc. Alia ao not hesitate to ask any questions which are of interest to the order and you think we can answer. A Box Butte county correspondent says they will either revise the Alliance there or will emigrate to some co-opera tive colony. Our people all seem to be thinking a great deal on co-operation and I wonder what they think the great est advantage of a co-operative commu nity is. It seems to me that it is the facility of exchange of the products of labor and the doing away with trans portation and the use of money except when dealing with the Gentiles. I like to hope that we all may live to see a genuine co-operative commonwealth where trans portation and money monopolies will be unknown. Where the possession of money will mean value rendered to the community and will enable the possessor to exact an equal benefit and no more, Then they "that will not work shall not eat." SIBLEY AND SILVER Is the heading of a petition of the Ameri can Bimetallic party which is being sent out to all Alliance men and Populists wnose addresses can be obtained. They urge the formation of silver clubs to boom Bill Bryan for some office and bibley for the presidency. According to tne replies sent in to our money ques tions last year I think they will have their labor for their pains. f . 1 tt IT 1 . vjuesuon i. wnac is money, "was almost invariably answered, "a repre sentative oivaiue or "a medium of ex cnange. we nave yet to near of an Alliance which tolerated any idea of "in trinsic value" demanded by the bi-me-tallic silver mine owners and office seek ers. Question 2. "What is its relation to wealth," was answered: "It represents ail wealth." . Question 3. "Of what material should it be made," was usually answered. "Of paper," or "any material that is light and will wear well." "By whom should it be created, "was always answered,"by the government only." 1 tie other answers to questions in van ably indicate that enough money should be issued to do the business of thecountry on a cash basis. 1 hat it should be paid out for government expenses and lent to the people through government agencies. That enough should be paid by taxation for its use to pay for making and hand ling it. J. hat the law should prevent speculation and loaning of money by in aividuais and corporations. J nat a flexible currency was wanted which would stay by the people, etc.. etc. The Alii ances evidently believe that is a good money which will exchange the products of their labor for that of their fellow la borers and pay their debts, taxes, etc, And while it is impossible to find a mon- ometallist among them, none that have had life enough to report to this office have seemed to care for metal money of any kind. By the way, cannot every Alliance take up the questions in the manual and study them, aiming to arrive at "the truth which shall make us tree?" And have your secretary send report of your conclusions when report is sent. I believe we all will get new ideas and be mutually benefited. Manu als can be obtained at this office, 10 cents each by mail. Turning to the questions on public schools we find there ought to be others inserted now, for in stance: "Are public schools desirable? ' "Is it right to tax non-pesidents to sup port public schools?" "Would not the abolition of public schools and the non education of the lower classes tend to make them more submissive to taxation in the form ot rent and usnry?" we see these questions have been an swered by the legislature and the people should bear them in mind "when election day conies round." Mhs. J. T. Kellie. The Alliance Is Reorganizing Reorganization is fast taking place and most of the Alliances are taking in many new members. The day we have long looked for seems to have arrived at last and the farmers are waking from their long slumbers. If they will only stay awake long enough to right their wrongs this time what a blessing it will be to future generations. From Buffalo aud Franklin come news of reorganization the past week also four Alliances in Loup county which had long been dead or dormant, and six Alliances in Garfield county have got to work and held a good county Alliance. "Still there is more to follow." QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. So many questions are asked by differ-1 ent ones in all parts of the state, it may be of interest to answer some of them here, now can! retain membership in I tne oraer, mere being no suo-Aiiiance I riirineor county Alliance in workiu roVr? Pay dues directly to the state Alliance as provided by the national law. No. 2fl which says: "For the purposeof enabling members to retain their membership the order where there is no state, county or sub-Alliance in working crder, such member may pay his or her dues directly to tne county Alliance, "if there is no county Alliance in working order, such member may pay directly to the state Alliance, and if the state Alliance is not in working order, such members mavpay directly to the national Alliance, to the end that such members may remain in good standing." Did the executive committee mean to reinstate delinquent Alliances, as all de linquent members? The executive committee simply rein states delinquent Alliances and recoru mends county Alliances to do the same. and also recommends sub-Alliapcesto re instate without payment of any back dues, so that poverty need not bar any one from membership. At the same time each sub-Alliance must judge as to the merits oi its members who wish to be re instated. I would advise where an Alii ance is in working order and an old mem ber wishes to be reinstated that a ballot be taken to see if the member is judged worthy or not. Must we reinstate those who are not in sympathy with the Alliance demands? Some such claim that thecall of the exec utive committee reinstates them? Answer. In order to join our order these men have said that they under stood the objects of our order and were in sympathy with them. These demands have been made publio by our state and national resolutions and have under gone no chanze worth mentioning for years. Either these men believe in these demands, or they have perjured them selves, it sure that they were working against the accomplishment of these de mands or any of them, I would feel no hesitancy in preferring charges against them and getting rid of them, first being sure that it was a willful act and not ignorance. Are all laboring men entitled to ioin our order r Our state constitution savs they shall be farmers, farm laborers, country me- cnanics, country school teachers, country physicians, country ministers of the gos pel, or an editor endorsed by the county Alliance. We do not define what the word "country" means. The natioual law with which our constitution can not con fiict, seems to define "country" as includ ing all towns of less than 5.000 inhabit ants, but leaves each state Alliance power to limit it to smaller towns, if desired To the best of my knowledge no action has been taken in our state, which leaves us under the national law. Mks. J. T. Kellie. Shots at Sbylock, By "Ivanboe" Spring Hill, Ala., April 8, 1895. Editor Wealth Makers: With government banks, no poor wid ows, orphans, young men just starting, or broken down old men will lose their til in "busted banks." is competition is virtually dead through trusts, tricks, telephone, telegraphs, asso ciations and "annual meetings," what argument yet remains in favorof private ownership of public utilities like banks, mines, telegraphs, railroads, and ex I a cnauge, except an imaginary progress and unnatural ambition? To have an appreciated currency and low prices as now, caused by a gold standard and by private banks having control of a large part of our currency and holding or calling in too much of it, this may be very desirable and "hon est" for the money loaners and those having fixed salaries, but it is an insult and terrible injustice to debtors, renters, interest payers, producers and laborers who have wages reduced. To increase the currency always helps the debtor class and therefore starts the business and everything nioviuc wonder fully. This would be good statesman-' ship and do untold good, only tempo rary, however, in some directions, as a scientific currency kept at an unchanirincr high rate per capita, of course would preveut any gigantic bond robbers'or mortgage and security raisine. but after ten years or so, unless the govern ment owned the public utilities, the Jews, Piggies and British would aerain tighten their boa constrictor coils around the strength and flower of America, through speculation, trade, tricks and money loaning. o Who would not like lower tnrfiR?

Down with the Shylocks! If the courts or constitution stand in the wav. the people made them, and the neonle can change them mighty quick. The people of one generation have no right to put a ball and chain on those of the next, com pelling them to do or not to do certain things. No decision, law. constitution. charter, incorporation, or legislative act of any kind should be for a longer period than one generation, thirty-three years, and that is really too long. The past has no right to bind the present, nor the present the future. Did you know the two old parties were twins? They united to repeal the Sher man act. They have united to either pass or defeat nearly every bill passed on lately. Both favor national banks, bonds, and the gohi standard in practice The excessively rich belong to aud domi nate both twins.

C. now eludes 23 families and 99 persons. in- While our membership bas been steadi ly increasing it is found impossible to employ all immediately. Only those are called who are best fitted to do those things first to be done in the order of work leading up to final preparation for permanently locating the center of operations. The question of exact loca tion is still only partially determined and will not be announced until fully deter mined and the land secured for the reason that enormous prices will be asked us for a few of "God's acres" if we should set about securing them with any flourish of trumpet. - ' The property and financial side of the Christian Corporation's affairs stands about as follows: Land, 1,J00 acres. Four hundred and eighty acres of this land is'of the very finest in eastern Ne braska improved aud under the highest state of cultivation nnd the rest choice unencumbered western land, some of which will soon be under irrigation. Tto treasurer's first monthly (April) statement shows cash on hand $235.00. Horses 24, cattle 40, hogs 100, poultry and other live stock. About (500 acres will be cropped the present season as fol lows: Corn 270 acres; oats 85, rye 81, kaffir corn for fodder 1 5, sorghum 10 to 20 acres, broom-corn 20, sugar crn 8, onions 8, potatoes 15. other trueir 20. Forty acres of truck will be under irriga. tion, tnus insuring this costly acreage against drouth. Only eight of the 23 families are actively engaged in work on the colony farms, but others are on the road at this time aud still others will soon be given employment, it being the policy of the board of directors to en courage no one to come to Lincoln until the corporation can profitably employ them. This may be disappointing to some but we must needs go slow these times. Chances for being called depends, on the fitness of the applicant for the next work in hand, the size of family and the amount the member is able to briny along to sustain self and family with til. crops are matured and stock marketable. However, this office is an employment bureau for every member of the Chris tian Corporation and will do all in its power to secure work for its atnrnbers. Members who have been aouopted in the regular way are ex pected to contribute their surplus to the common treasury for immediate orfuture use. One brother in Omaha, a book keeper, sends f 20 per month; another, a plumber in this city sends $10 per month several others irregularamounts. These amounts are credited to the member along with his original property or cash contribution and placed to his credit in the endowment iund the same as if he had contributed the whole amount at one time. These amounts like original prop erty or cash brought to the organization, he can take out if heevercbooses to with draw for any reason; save that should loss occur, for instance by conflagration. flood or storm, he or she must share these calamities. Certainly there is nothing unjust or unfair in these arrange ments. Estimated value of all Dronertv $30,000. The policy of the corporation is to pay as it goes. No debt will be incurred of a purely speculative nature. It will use its credit only where absolutely necessary and in these instances the individual credit of its members will doubtless be sufficient. The first edition of the constitution and by-laws is almost exhausted. De mands have rome for them' from all quarters of the Union. This demand has been supplied regardless of whether the five cents in stamps to cover cost bas ac companied the order or not. The proba bilities are that more cannot be printed until well toward fall as it will require many membership meetings aud consider able earnest discussion to complete the by-laws in detail. Hence no order will be duplicated for them until further notice, that is, a second copy will not be furn ished the same person. Applications for membership were re ceived last week Irom W. L. Carman of Belvidere, Neb.. Mrs. Hardin of Whittier. Mrs. Talmadge of Belvidere, James Le- Hoy of Coldwater, Mich. Bro. Carman is a plumber and carpenter and Bro. Le roy a contractor and builder. Among the trades, professions, etc., now repre sented are the following: Gas titter, pattern maker ,electrician,steam engineer, gas maker, miner, printers, farmers, editors, car repairers, carpenter, grocer, telegraph operator, short-band teacher, minister, painter, dress-maker, school teacher, reporter, book-keeper, gardener, etc. i ne only tbing we lack now is a financier" or two. Being a modest people, however, we dono canvassing for members and will .have to get along without a representative of this valuable class. The ordinary industrial enterprise seeks first to secure the "backing" of capital. The Christian Corporation seek! rather the skill and co-operative effort of labor, the creator of all capital. Competition fawns at the feet of wealth. Co-operation enlists the support of honest toil and proposes to create wealth. As fast as new industries can be established non-resident members will be called to the scene of operations, sharing all pro ducts equally, the law of "the best man forward" will have, full sway, which. supplemented with the knowledge of the workers that they are receiving the full benefit of their efforts will furnish the greatest possible motive for exertion. Bro. A. S. Miller of Whittier, Lincoln county, Nebraska, is on the way to Lin coln to actively engage in colony work. ... Copfous rains all over Nebraska, and especially in the neighborhood of the C. C's, farming operations, have greatly en couraged everybody and are an earnest of abundant crops. Several acres in or chards and viuec will afford a great amount of fruit if conditions continue favorable. It A Lincoln county brother asks, "wif there m time for recreation?" Certainly, for the prenent, no less and no more t han we have been used to previously. Until the colony is permanently located on a tract of land large enough for a small village there will be little use to expect a reduction of the number of hours work per day; but after that time there isevery reason to believe that eignt hours per day will create more than is now realized in from 10 to 18. This leaves 8 hours for sleep and 8 hours for study and rec reation. Of course the individualist smiles at the dreamer of such things. Well, the "crank" of today is the re former of tomorrow and the Bage of the day after: and the next generation erecteth him a bronze statuteandsetteth it up in the center of the publio square. We ought to have a physician a black smith, another school teacher, a brick layer and brick-maker, a butcher, a stone muson and plasterer. Certain ones of these could find immediate employment with the C. C. Secretary. "NEBRASKY," To William Raed Dnnroy. A Rently undulating plain, With cltle prlng-lng up amain.
