THE NEW WOMAN.
Miss Alice Cohn, writes from 474
Eleventh Street, Brooklyn, N. Y., a3
follows :
"Having had poor health for a great
many months and now having it re
stored makes me feet very grateful to
Peruna. I suffered a great deal during
my monthly periods, had severe pains,
and was generally depressed, but can
truthfully say that a few bottles of Pe
runa has removed all pain and made a
new woman of me. MISS ALICE
COHN.
The coming of what is known as the
'new woman" in our country is not
greeted by everyone as if she were a
great blessing. But there is another
new woman whom everybody is glad to
eee. Every day some invalid woman is
exclaiming, " I have been made a new
woman by Dr. Ilartman's home treat
ment." It is only necessary to send
name, address, symptom?, duration of
sickness and treatment already received
to Dr. Ilartman, Columbus, O., and direc
tions for one month's treatment will be
promptly forwarded. The medicines
can be obtained at the nearest drug
6 tore.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Ilartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.
Address Dr. Ilartman, President of
The Ilartman Sanitarium, Columbu3,
Ohio.
When writing to advertisers do not

POPULIST PROSPERITY
Mr. Warren Cites Hiatoric!. Examples of
Unparalleled Prosperity Brought

(This is another installment of the
series of articles on the money ques
tion from the pen of Hon. Marvin
Warren, Fairbury, Neb.)
POPULIST PROSPERITY.
I will now present some examples of
populist prosperity, a very different
thing from republican prosperity. I
base all my arguments upon examples
of human experience, and not like re
publicans, deal in mere tlxeories that
conflict with human experience.
ENGLISH EXPERIENCE.
Sir Archibald Allison, author of the
history of modern Europe, says:
"The suspension of specie payments
by the Bank of England in 1797 led to
the use of an enormous amount of ir
redeemable paper money. The, next
eighteen years of the war, from 1797
to 1815, were as all the world knows,
the most prosperous which Great Brit
ain had ever known. Ushered In by a
combination of circumstances the most
calamatous, both with reference to
external security and internal indus
try, it terminated in a blaze of glory
and flood of prosperity which have
never since the beginning of the
world descended upon any nation.
Prosperity universal and' unheard of
pervaded every part of the "empire.
Agriculture, commerce and manufac
tures at home had increased in an un
paralleled ratio; the landed proprie
tors were in affluance; wealth to an
unheard of extent had been created
among the farmers; our exports, Im
ports and tonnage had more than
doubled since the war began.
"From 1797 to 1819 no financial em
barrassments of any moment were ex
perienced, and In vain Napoleon waited
for the stoppage of England's finan
cial resources. But the act of resump
tion of specie payment of 1819 -the
change of the financial system from
legal tender paper money to metal
money was ruinous to all the Indus
tries of England. The distress became
insufferable, and in Manchester 60,000
men, women and children assembled
demanding blood or bread, and many
of the people were killed and many
wounded by the British troops."
There was just one cause for that
great prosperity and only one. That
cause was the plenitude of money cir
culation. The historian speaks of it
as an enormous amount of money, and
so it was an enormous amount in com
parison with the scrimp supply that
plutocracy allows to be circulated in
countries generally, But for ought I
know there may have been only just
enough of it to produce all the good
results that were produced by it. If so
the supply was propeny speaking just
(normal only; that is, just enough.

If the populist platform be put Into
effect we will have fully that greatness
of prosperity all the time and every
where in the United States. I promise
this and will prove it also, not D
theory only, but by historic facts. That
great prosperity came promptly when
the great money circulation came, anrl
left promptly when the great money
circulation left, and England Has nev
er had any such prosperity before nor
since, because she never had any such
great plenitude of money circulation
before or since. Plutocracy allowed
that plenitude of money circulation
to come in just for the time above
stilted, because it was necessary lo
enable the country to defend itself
against the war of Napoleon ior con
quest, but Napoleon being made a
prisoner for life at the battle of Wa
terloo in 1815, plutocracy in its own
interest set about it with plans to
get rid of the great money supply
as soon as possible.
OUR OWN EXPERIENCE.
We of this country have also some
experience similar to that of Eng
land already given, of a much later
date than that, and all within the
memory of many of us. This experi
ence of ours corroborates all that I
have said based upon that English
experience. As I have already dis
coursed somewhat An this work upon
this experience of ours I need not
dwell any more at length upon It.
But the following extract of a letter
from the noted Wendell Phillips to
the New York Legal Tender club,
dated August 23, 1875, is very appro
priate to be copied here.
"History is1 repeating itself. Eng
land never knew more prosperous
years than from 1800 to 1820. All
that time she extended and contracted
her currency without any regard what
ever to gold. Her enormous trade
and expenditures were all paper. We
had similar prosperity during the war
and after on the same terms. In 1820
England, listening to theorists, tried
to put this new wine into old bottles,
and bankruptcy, the very history of
which makes the blood cold today,
blighted the empire.
"We entered the same valley of the
shadow of death when in 1865, McCuI
loch began contraction. Woe to tlie
political party which the nation shall
finally pronounce responsible for this
fatal mistake! Its leaders will be
buried in curses, as men whom neither
history onr their own experience could
make wise."
Yes, it is true that in 1865, when
Secretary McCulloch began our cur
rency contraction, we entered what
Mr. Phillips calls the valley of the
shadow of death. And as I have al
ready shown, the farther we have gone
into that. valley ever since, the darker
and darker it has become.
PAPER CURRENCY OF 1865.
According to statistics, nearly all
of which are taken from the reports
of the secretary of the treasury and
treasurer of the United States for
1865, we had outstanding currency on
June 30, 1865, as follows:

a really good Piano at a moderate price. In short, it has not a
single equal at the price. Their success along this line vhas in
spired the company to attempt something higher. The new High
Grade Schiller is the result. This, like the medium grade, is the
best yet produced for the money. The price is necessarily some
higher, but just as low in proportion to quality. "

In answer to a letter of inquiry re
garding the exact status of tTie seven
thirty notes, Mr. Spinner, ex-United
States treasurer, replied as follows:
"Mohawk, N. Y., Aug. 17, 1870.
Editor Commercial Bulletin, Chicago,
111. Sirs: Your letter or the 15th
Inst, has been received. In answer I
have to say that the seven-thirty notes
were intended, prepared, issued and
used as money., Very respectfully
yours, F. E. SPINNER."
The population of the United States
at that time was 34,748,000, which j
made a paper money circulation of
$57.65 per capita, and if the coin mon
ey were added in it would make $67.26
per capita.
contraction by secretary
Mcculloch.
On pages 28 and 23, Messages and
Documents, 1867-8, the secretary of
the treasury Hugh McCulloch says:
"The condition of the country and
the treasury determined the policy of
the secretary, which has been to con
vert the interest-bearing bonds, notes,
etc., into gold-bearing bonds, and to
contract the paper circulation by the
redemption of United States notes.
For; the last two years this policy has
been steadily but carefully pursued
and the result on the whole has been
satisfactory to the secretary."
From the 1st of September, 1865, to
the 1st of September, 1867, the secre
tary says the "reduction In the cur
rency" was as follows:
Compound interest notes were re
duced from $217,024,160.00 to $72,875,-
040.00.
Seven and three-tenths notes were
reduced from $830,000,000.00 to $337,
978,800.00. United States notes and fractional
currency from $459,505,311.51 to $387,
871,477.39. -
A reduction of $797,725,317.39.
And the cash in the treasury has
been increased from $88,215,055.13 to
$133,998,398.02, and the funded debt
has increased $686,584,800.
- "The secretary continued", says
Bolles' , Financial History, page 278.
"to reduce the legal tender notes, and
when congress convened in December,
a considerable stringency existed In
the money market. The price of com
modities had declined, and opposition
to further contraction was loud and
general," and an "act to suspend ror a
time the further reduction pt the cur
rency" became a law February 4, 1868.
But the contraction was later renewed
and greatly pushed as I have before
shown.
COLONIAL EXPERIENCE.
The following three brief extracts
from three letters written by Dr. Ben
jamin Franklin from London to Joseph
Galloway of Philadelphia, Pa., a prom
inent and active man in the public af
fairs of that city and-colony, show the
outline of all experience of the Ameri
can colonies in the affairs of money.
Up to 1763 the colonies made almost
exclusive use of legal tender irre
deemable paper money with great suc
cess and satisfaction to themselves,
but in 1763 parliament passed an act
prohibiting the colonies from issuing
or circulating legal tender paper
money. They were allowed to circu
late coin redemption paper money, but
it was not allowed to .be legal tender
for debts of any kind. . Coin redemp
tion paper money was an impossibllty
with, them for the want of any relia
ble supply of coin for either redemp
tion or money, purposes.
Previous to the passage of that act
the colonies for many years had been
greatly prospered by the almost ex
clusive use of legal tender paper mon
ey, because they habitually supplied
themselves with a plenty of it. The
following three extracts are given ta
show how . the colonies appreciated
their plenitude of full legal tender pa
per money, and how marvelously it
prospered them. They are all copied
from volume VII. of "Dr. Benjamin
Franklin's Works, with notes and
life by Jared Sparks."
"London, June 13, 1767. Joseph
Galloway Dear Sir: In my last of
May 20, I mentioned my hopes tnat
we should at length get over all ob
structions to the repeal of the act re
straining the legal tender of paper
money; but those hopes are now great
ly lessened. ; B. FRANKLIN."
(Page 338.)
"London, December 1, 1767. Joseph
Galloway Dear Sir: I shall neverthe
less do my utmost this winter to ob
tain the repeal of the act restraining
the legal tender. B. FRANKLIN."
(Page 367.) .
"London, February 17, 1768. Joseph
Galloway Dear Sir: In mine of Jan
uary 9, I wrote to you that I be
lieved, notwithstanding the clamor
against America had been greatly in
creased by the Boston proceedings, we
should attempt this session to obtain
the repeal of the restraining act re
lating to paper money.
(Page 381.) "B. FRANKLIN."
I think that repeal was never ob
tained, but the restraining act came
to be more and more disregarded by
the colonies, and the disregard was a
part of the rebellion, like the resist
ance to taxation.
In the midst of our great republican
prosperity we have lost our merchant
marine, and can build no more ships
without a great ship subsidy. But by
the use of their full legal tender ir
redeemable paper money, ship build
ing was one of the most important
interests of the colonists. And in the
year 1738 no less than forty-one sail
ing vessels with an average burden of
one hundred and fifty tons were bunt
and launched at the ship yards of Bos
ton. Ridpath's History of the United
States, page 284. '
On the 14th of April, 1774, Edmond
Burke, in the house of commons of
Great Britain, in a speech on the sub
ject of American taxation, and speak
ing of the American colonies, said:
"Nothing in the history of mankind
is like their progress. For my part, I
never cast my eyes on their commerce,
and their cultivated and commodious
life, but they seem to me nations
grown to perfection through a long
series of fortunate events, and a train
of successful industry accumulating
wealth in many centuries, rather than
the colonies of yesterday; a set of mis
erable outcasts a few years ago; and
not so much sent as thrown on the
hleak and barren1 shore of a desolate
wilderness three thousand miles from
all civilized intercourse."
I am nroud of our ancestors, the
colonists who had the Intelligence and
inteerritv to maintain continually h
full legal tender irredeemable paper
money circulation at par with or
above coin, sufficient in quantity to
keen un a lively competition in all
business, and thus" -to keep down all
trusts and monopolies, and protect all.
available wage labor in fair pay and
all its riehts. without any need of la
bor organizations or strike
I am ashamed of our present gen
eration who lack either the intelli
cPTiffi nr inteerritv or both to maintain
a money circulation in this country
that has any of said excellencies.
FRENCH EXPERIENCE.
In 1870 France had a disastrous war
with Germany. Was required to pay
Germany a money war penalty or
100.000.000. The Bank of France then
had a circulation of $250,000,000, which
by October 31, 1873, was increased to
$602,000,000, all made irredeemable m
coin, but kept par with coin by being a
full leeal tender for all debts and
taxes. This great paper money circu
lation so enlivened all tne rrencn in
dustries that in a remarkable short
time the debt was all paid, three-
fourths of it by French manufactures
sold to Germany, leaving France with
much more coin than Germany, and in
a much better financial and industrial
condition.
VENECIAN EXPERIENCE.
In the year 1172, Venice, a nation
of Islands, of small resources com
pared with ours, became involved in a
great debt by war expenses whicn sne
was unable to pay as required m
coin, but some of her wealthy and
patriotic citizens furnished the coin
to the government to pay the debt,
and took therefor government credits
made negotiable and a legal tender to
pay all debts, public and private, but
not redeemable in coin or anything
else by the government or by any
bank or by any person or persons. And
these irredeemable full legal tender
credits became, money of great favor
not only throughout Venice, but all
Europe, and so continued without the
least, depreciation below gold or sil
ver coin for over 500 years, making the
Bank of Venice the financial clearing
house for the civilized world.
TAKE NOTICE NOW.
' I direct attention of the readers to
the fact that all the five instances of
great prosperity above stated were
cases of irredeemable legal tender pa
per money, circulation of large amount
and also to the fact that In cases
where the paper money was a legal
tender to pay all debts and taxes It
never depreciated below the parity of
coin in value. These were the . cases
in France, Venice and those in the col
onies generally. I also direct atten
tion to the fact that in the colonies
where the supply of gold and silver
coin was always too unreliable to
have coin redemption at all, the people
were indifferent about it whether they
had coins of gold or silver or none at
all.. In either event the colonial gov
ernments supplied them with a plenty
of fulL legal tender paper money, so
that they had just as much money and
just as good whether they had any
metal money at all or not.
The colonists were indifferent to the
coming and going of gold, and silver
money, but when in 1763 parliament
enacted a law forbidding the colonial
governments to issue legal tender p
per money, then came distress and
great commotion among the colonists,
and a waking up of the illustrious Dr.
Franklin himself to get the law re
pealed as I have shown. With the
colonists full legal tender irredeem
able paper money was the one great
power for good, and the metals gold
and silver were of trifling . account.
This is a great contrast with the cus
toms of this generation wherein there
is no such thing as full legal tender
irredeemable paper money in this
country, but there are great, long,
noisy, exciting campaigns fought out
between one metal and two- metals,
with nonsense prevailing on both
sides. It is not to be wondered there
fore that we are burdened with moun
tains of foreign and domestic debt
and bankruptcy, that nearly all busi
ness is carried on by great combina
tions, trusts and monopolies of every
kind, and that the eountry is beset
with labor oppressions, organizations
and strikes. Let there be two money
metals, but treat them with ration
ality and not with idolatry.
State Convention
.Pursuant to action taken at a meet
ing of the executive committee held in
Lincoln, April 23, 1902, the electors of
the people's independent party of Ne

And that the primaries in the various
voting precincts held, for the purpose
of electing delegates to the county
convention be held not earlier than
Saturday, the 14th day of June, A. D.,
1902. It is also recommended that the
various county conventions elect an
equal number of alternates to the state
convention and that steps be taken to
secure, if possible, a full delegation to
the state convention.
By order of the executive committee
of the people's Independent party of
Nebraska. C. Q. DE FRANCE,
J. R. FARRIS, Chairman.
Secretary.
Democratic State Convention
The democratic call is for the same
time and place as the populist call
above (Grand Island, June 24, 1902, at
3 o'clock p. m.), for nomination of
eight state officers, and "to transact
such other business as may properly
come before the convention." The ap
portionment is based upon the votes
cast for Hon. W. D. Oldham for at
torney general in 1900, and the rep
resentation of the various counties Is
identical with the populist representa
tion above, except as to the following
counties: Boyd 9, Butler 22, Cass 24,
Cheyenne 3, Clay 19, Colfax 15, Dawes
7, Deuel 4, Dodge 26, Douglas 127, Fill
more 19, Hall 18, Harlan 11, Knox 16,
Lancaster 55, Lincoln 12, McPherson
1, Nance 9, Saunders 28, Scotts Bluff
