Calhoun, as the Platte Center
Argus points out, advises the independ

and in the same issue says Cleveland

except that democrats will get the fat
offices. Calhoun says that Cleveland
and Harrison would veto any measure
of financial relief. But if the two old
parties both lead to perdition the in
dependents are right in taking to the
woods, and in '92 it will be found that
" the woods are full of 'em."

Sugar from sorghum is now be
ing manufactured by a new process
which is described in the Scientific
American. The gura which has hitherto
prevented crystallization is dissolved
with alcohol, and sugar to the amount
of 150 pounds per ton of the plant is
produced. A ton of sorghum cane
costs only hilf what a ton of sugar bents
costs. This is the report of H. W. Wiley,
director of the government sorghum
sugar station at Medicine Lodge, Kau.
Z3T Germany twenty years ago bought
all her sugar. To-day she grows and
manufactures more sugar than any
other country in the world. She pro
duces ten times as much as as the Sand
wich Islands, and almost nine times as
much as the United States. But what
Germany has done the United States
can do many times over. Nebraska
will yet be a great sugar as well as a
great corn, hog and cattle state. And
Lincoln is its capitol.

wishes command respect. Dr. Foster
says: "There is no question that
woman in pontic nas su lar Deen a
purifying influence. She wants no
deals, no trickery, no catch-penny
subserviency to secure notes. She
believes in thedistinction between right
and wrong and can't be made to see
that it doesn't apply to politics. Boston
furnishes a very limited sphere of ob
servation on the subject in question,
but its experience certainly goes to
show that woman's influence lu politics
is good and nothing but good."

dustry the wealth standing in his name;
the individual pauper has not lost solely
by his own guilt or indolence the means
of independent existence. Society has
helped the capitalist; it has kept alive
for him a supply of cheap labor and
skilled labor, sufficient to produce a
surplus beyend his wants however
lavishly concerned available for ac

since the accumulations became large)
that they shall be practically exempt

THE EVIL OF OPTION DEALING.
Hon. August Post, Secretary of th
National Farmer' AUianc, in Favor
of the Buttetworth Bill.
To the Alliance of American Farmer and
, Planter:
We desire to call your attention to
what Is known a "The Butterworth
Bill." concerning option and future
ales of farm products now pending be
fore congress, and to urge that you use
all the influence yon can command, by
petitions or otherwise, to secure the
active support of your senator and
representatives in congress in favor of
the immediate passage of the bill.
A careful study of the causes of the
present depression in the farming and
planting industry must satisfy any one
that the enormous amount of "short"
selling and gambling in soil products
which is carried on in Chicago and
other cities has been the leading cause
of tho present low values of these
products.
The actual product of this country
have now to compete not only with
what Is actually grown in other coun
tries, but with a hundredfold greater
quantity of fictitious or "wind" pro
duct which theso gambler through
their artful devices and methods con
jure up and uee In the market as a
means of depressing the price.
While the stuff they offer for aale is
not real or actual, yet the operator
have become such accomplished jug
gler that they make it appear a If it
was, and so manipulate it that it ha all
the weight and force of real stuff for
depressing market values of wheat and
other farm product.
For instance, a certain number of
bushels of wheat are grown in this
country. This wheat must, of course,
under the law of supply and demand,
come in competition in the market with
whatever other wheat may be grown In
the other wheat producing countries of
the world. In other words, all the
wheat actually produced in each coun
try has its effect, naturally and inevit
ably, ia determining the value of wheat
in the various markets of the world.
Now, if the market price was regulated
by this standard alone, that Is, If the
market price was depressed solely by
the amount of wheat actually produced,
the farmer could not complain. But
the value or market price is not regu
lated In this way. The operators or
gamblers in wheat are too numerous
and too insatiable to content themselves
with offering for sale only such wheat
as U actually grown. By their system
of options and selling for future delivery
they constantly offer on tho market
millions of bushels which have no ex
istence; which are neither reaped nor
sown, and never will be, and which
will never be, and are never intended
to be, actually delivered. They consist
only of wind: and the buying and selling
of them are mere "bets" which are set
tled simply by paying the differences
between the price at which tbey were
sold and the market price at the time
the "bet" matures.. Yet, when they mere
offered for sale, then appeared to be real,
actual trheat. Of course the more of a
thing which is offered for sale the
greater the tendency must bo to lower
the price. And thus the selling of these
millions of bushels of "wind" wheat
loads the market down with an appar
ent supply which has no real existence,
and causes the market price to decline
just as effectually as if real wheat had
been sold. It is believed that this short
selling of wheat tends so strongly to de
press the market price that in effect the
larmer is actually made to give away
about one crop out of every five he
produces.
In the same way the market price of
corn, and other products of the farm, is
hammered down by this method of
selling "short" or, selling fictitious
stuff, which is produced ouly by the
sleight of hand tricks performed on the
exchanges, boards of trade and bucket
shops by dexterous and accomplished
operators.
The "Butterworth bill" recognizes
that congress is not authorized under
the constitution to expressly prohibit
this business; that its only power to
deal with it is under the authority to
raise revenue. The bill therefore im
poses a license fee and tax upon this
sort of business the effect of which will
be to put an end to it.
The Chicago, New York, New Or
leans and other exchanges and boards
of trade will defeat the passage of this
bill if possible. They realize that, if
they cannot continue to use the farmers
and planters for shuttle-cocks, the game
they have played so long at the expense
of these producers will have to stop. It
will therefore require immediate and
energetic action on the part of farmers
and planters to have the bill passed.
Write your representatives aud urge
them to pass the bill in the house, and
to use all the influence they can to
secure its passage in tho senate also.
Have every influential man who favors
the bill, whether ho be a producer or
merchant, write a personal letter to the
congressi-aan of his district requesting
immediate and decisive action in this
matter. Your organization should also
adopt resolutions favoring this bill and
forward copies of same to your senators
and representatives at Washington.
Do whatever you can, and do tt quickly,
to secure the passago of the bill.
August Post,
Sec'y National Farmers' Alliance.
County Alliance Meeting.
The regular meeting of the Lancaster
County Alliance wi.s held in this city on
the 4th inst., and while a numbi v A
Alliances were not represented iho
meeting was well attended and a very
interesting session held. The County
Mutual Insurance company notified the
Alliance that they were now ready to
commenoe business, the necessary in
surance having been written to make it
effective.
A number of interesting subjects were
discussed and a committee of three ap
pointed who were instructed to organ
ize a bureau of education and arrange
for systematic work the coming year.
This committee expects to supply
every Alliance in the county with some
good speakers to address them on the
principles of the Alliance and needed
reforms, at least once a month, and we
predict that much good will be done by
thorough careful work along this line.
The next meeting will be held on Fri
day, January 9tb, and every Alliance
in the bounty should see that their del
egates attend.
SOI SOLID FACTS.
Not To B Read Unlea Ton Have Tim
to Think.
If You Would Do Youratlf Service and
U a Favor, 8rudy The Point
Carefully.
When the working voter of the coun
try come to fully understand the money
question they will do this: Demone
tize silver and gold, and by constitu
tional amendment provide for the issue
of such an amount of non-redeemable
treasury notes as shall raise the price of
goods in general to a level previously
determined upon, this level to lie main
tained by a regular increase of the cir
culation to any amount that may lie
necessary; this currency to be a full,
and the only legal tender, and receiv
able by the government for all due.
Is the present standard dollar a just
dollar? No. A just dollar Is a station
ary dollar, one that neither appreciate
nor depreciates. Our standard dollar
baa been steadily appreciating for the
past niteen years, it win never be a
just dollar until it has depreciated to an
equal extent. It can only be depreciat
ed by what is called an inflation of the
currency. Inflation is the natural and
only remedy for appreciation. Remem
ber that money is not wealth, but only
tne tool mat excr.angea it.
.
How much money is required by the
people of this nation for the most eco
nomical exchange of products, and for
all bnslness purposes? No liring man
can tell.
How shall we find It out?
By experiment.
Determine first what shall be the pur
chasing power of a dollar as measured
by all staple commodities.
Then turn on a supply of legal tender
treasury notes until the proper level Is
reached, and maintain it in the same
manner.
Thus and thus only can this roost ini
portant fact be determined
The advantage of money is derived
wholly from the using of it It is worth
less as a possession; of no use .to him
who cannot spend it. Therefore, all
that we can desire in money 1 that its
buying power shall be constant and
continuous. If money be redeemed wo
lose the use of It. Redemption is not
the life of money, but tho death of it
If we can be assured that a certain piece
of money will never be redeemed, but
will be renewed when wora, and that
its buying power shall neither increase
nor grow less, but remain constant, we
have then a perfect piece of money, no
matter wnat it Is made of. The b. vins
power of money cannot remain constant
unless there be a gradual, lawful and
systematic increase of the quantity In
circulation equal to the increase of
business transactions; that is, occasions
for tne use of money.
Silver and gold colli manufactured
at the mint, of required weight and
fineness, are a constitutional currency.

Except in speculative and gambling
transactions, all loans are loans of
wealth, accomplished by means of the
instrument called money, and all debts
paid are paid with wealth, money being
used merely to transfer the wealth from
the debtor to the creditor.
So long as the debtor class confines
itself to the labor of producing the
wealth out of which it must pay its
debts, and leaves to tho creditor claps
the business of making the money which
must be used in debt-paying, the aggre
gate amount of their debts will never
be smaller.
It has been found necessary for those
who vote to attend also to the counting
of tho ballots. It is just a important
that those who pay the dobts should
also attend to the making of the money.
