THE ALLANCE -INDEPENDENT. e. - i Wall birt-t-t lre,annff to Sqaeeae The Banking Botioess. Editor Aiaiance-Ikdefendent: Immediately after th present admin istration entered upon its duties, Bank er Clews, Wall Street's spokesman Announced to the country that Wall Street would become restive and alarm ed "if some steps were not taken look In? toward a financial finality." Webster says 'Finality" means the final state, the last winding up of things Wall Str-ft wants a "finality" of the finance question. It wants the finance question "wound up,' 'settled for all time. ' Iq the same connection Banker Clews Informs the people that the first step In the final settlement of the finance ques tion, is the repeal of the silver purchase act. Wby did Wall Street wish to get rid of the Sherman silver law? Not, as ttclaims, because t ha law drove gold out of the country, not because it caused the nrcsent "acute financial crisis." But because under the law 4 500,000 ounces of silver was purchased each month and paid for with U. 8 treasury notes thus over 13,000,000 a month of government full legal tender money was going Into circulation. Accord lne to Wall Street the first step in the fiBal settlement of the fi nance Question is to stop the Issue of all government currency. What is the next step? We will let the backers answer. In the Bee of July 10th, we find the following from Banker Clews: It Is not to be supposed that a stop page of the silver issues Is the only amndment the currency situation re quires. We must have an elas icity in our currency that will permit it volume to inorease with the growing business of the country; and if the 'new silver issues ar s opped without provision being made for a natural additional supply of money the change will bo simply one from unsouna inflation to the opposite extreme of violent contrac tion. It would be neither an uarea-on-able nor an unwholesome demand if concurrently with the consideration ot a repal bill the sense of congress tihould be consulted as to the procure ment of this needful elasticity through amendments of the laws relating to bank note circulation. ,Yes; stopping the coinago of silver resulted in a violent contraction of the ourreney. Wall Street called in loans to contract, and congress stepped the issue of a government currency, thus helping on the Wall Street scheme of contrac tion, and contraction caused the present "acute financial crltls " But Banker Clews is very careful in outlining bow Wall Street wants the currency question settled. He does not wish ta arouse any determined opposi tlon, he merely intimates that bank ourreney might take the place of silver issue. Not so with Mr. W. C. Crom well, who read a paper before the Amerlcaa Bankers Association en Oct. 18ib, 1893. He boldly gives away the whole plan, the Wall street plan ot a final settlement of the finance question He says: All silver purchasing must cease. Without this it is absolutely useless to institute other reforms Then our legal tenders, the greenback and the Treas ury ncte, must be retired. This brings to us the question, what shall fill the gap thus created? There is but cne answer. I he present tendency in all the great nations of the world Is to wards bank cuirency Bark currency is what we, too, mint depend n. "Notes issued by properly capitalized and inspect"! banks to the extent of a proportion of their paid up capital, and mane a first Hen upon their asetx, not specially pledged, but held as a general security, have be Mud them the only trluy s ientitic basis for circulation ia a coun'ry l'ke ours the basis being the produce of th energy, the muscle, and the brain of our people. What bet ter basis for bank notes can be created than these quick assets? Such bank notes, uod'r regulation for daily re demption, modest y and automatically retire when tbey are not needed Qraft this principle upon the national sys tem. AbolUb the overseourityand tae tax en circulation. Make the note se cure nough, but not too secure. Drop the United States bond poial security, adept the general security principle which is in such successful operation in Canada, make the note fimt lien on all assets, including doublllaMltty in stock holders, 1 raiting its issu to a percent age ol capital with a guarantee fund and othf r miner details to be arranged KstablUa redemption agencies at finan cial centers throughout the Unlu-d btatae, Lhi all nites to prtn'ed by the gvernt-nt as now. Under the geae val eecarlty principle daily actual re demption woutd tnn become a fact. The iperatinna would be the same at under Canadian law.

Cr m w 11 says, "n ake the note secure enough, but not too secure.1 That Is, make the notes good enough to circulate when the people have confi dence in them, but in tima of panic not so secure but what the bankers can re fuse to take them. Thus giving the banks power to rob bill ho'dars as tbey now have the power to rob depositors. During the Cleveland administration Wall Street proposes to scttlj the fi nance question as outlined by Cromwell This of course will kill tha Democratic party; but what cares Wall Street for that? In that case it will try to put the Republican (Its other party) in power to act as "dog In the manger" to prevent the people from wiping out the wrongs done them by tho Democrats. Wall Street proposes to get what it wants from tho Democrats, and keep what It gets by turning the country over to the tender mercies of a Repub lican do-nothing party. To quiet the nerves of the people Wall Street will then p'rooeed in its own way to boom the times for a year or twa on a wildcat currency. The issue of government bonds Is tha next step in the Wall Street plan. Tba large banks will probably get all the 5 per cent, and other bonds issued and in their bands, and these will go tw a 25 per cent, premium. We call the attention of the small country banks, especially the state and private banks to this fact, that whtn tba large banks get the finance ques tion settled to suit them they will own all the bonds aBd securities on which aa issue of bank bills could be based They could then fix the premium on all securities to be used for banking pur poses where they p'ease. They could fix the number and location of all banks and as their schema contemplates only national banks, we predct that one-half of the banks now doing business will be "turned down" and those reorganizing will be squeezed for a good round premium. Tbo large banks are not quite ready to eat op the small ones. Wall Street wants the assistance of all tba banks to help force on the people the foreign banking system, tha foreign rate of wages, the foreign tenant system, tba foreign mannar of living for the labor ers and the foreign rule of monopoly. These things an accomplished fact, Wall Street will be ready and in a peti tion to gobble the small banks. CONSMVATIV. The Popali-ts of Kelib County Alive. Og ala ix a, Neb., Feb. 5, 1891. Editor Alliance-Independent: At we seldom see anytning in yeur valuable paper from this part of tha Lord's Moral Vineyard, and as we have na Independent paper in Keith county at this time, to spread the good aews abroad that the Independent party here still lives, I am prompted to write this, trusting it may find space. Our party is continually growing ia the knowledge of the truth, and we feel that the principles set forth in the Omaha platform must be enforced by actual legislation before justice can b done to the great masses of the toilers of this nation. We realize the fact that there U going to be a terrible struggle before the great conspiracy of the money lenders and capitalists of this country and England will concede that the common people have rights that they are bound to respect. We bave watched, and are still watching with solicitude the progress of events as they transpire both in and outside of the halls of Congress. We have watched the sad spectacle of the leaders of the two old parties in Congress voting ss a unit on measures that are in the interest of the Say locks of both oountrli s.

It Is said that a cat can look at- the King, and although I am not a ca I claim the right to write to you this open letter. You will perceive it is a let er somewhat of inquiry and I hopo and trust that the prvsH throughout the length and breadth of our nation, will publish these fewlines and your answer thereto, for I fancy there ara millions who want to know your answer. I want to ask you about a little clip taken from ho New York Tribune in 1378, as follows: The time is near when theythe na tlr.tal banks will feel themselves com pelled to act strongly. Meanwhile a very good thing hat been done. The machinery is a w farnlsht-d by which in any emergency, the financial corpo rations or tho east ran act together at slnld days notice with such power that no act or uongress can overcome or re slst their decision. I believe this statement to be true, and I consider it parallel to a case where a robber or pirate, takes possession of a man's farm and home, I ca 1 you to account for it and not only myself but millions of idle and angry men in this nation. By what authority, license, law or permission, have you done this thing? Let us see what you have done. Will you turn to Article 1, Section 1, of the constitution of the United States and read with me: All ler islativa powers herein granted shall be vested in a congress of ha United States which sball consist of a Senate and House of itepresentatlves. Now read shave It the short preamble: "We the people of th United States in ord-r to form a mors perfect uulon, establish justice, inure do nestio tran quility, provld 'for '.tie common defence promote thn 'general welfare, and se cure the blessings of liberty to our- elves and our posterity, do ordtla and establish this constitution of the United States of America. Now this seems to ba n agreement, a contract. Let us see. What Is a con tract? I think it is Judg Story who says: "A contract is a deliberate en gagement between competent pirtlei, pon a lepal consideration to d j or to abstain from doing seme act." This contract includes not only what I have quoted, but the entire constitution of the United States; and do you remem ber our forefathers fought for the liber tie?, the powers, the union, the justice, the domestic tranquility, tha common defence, the general wvlfare resulting in the aforesaid blessings of liberty to ourtelves and pour otterity? They fought for it, they purchased it with their blaod. Yea, they died for It. Dj you realize how sacred is tha Inherit ance to us? Do you know what sap- parts tba laws of our constitution and our state? Is it not the consent of the governed? Then it is, aa agreement,' is it not? And a legal contract, is it not? It Is a promiie by o-rtaln parties. Thecoa-tltutlon af the United States was rati fit d by all the states, and be came a contraot by all the ft aple, a promise to be governed )y those laws; and the people, then, wen parties to those laws, of whom you, if you are hu man, intelligent beings and citizens of the United Stater, are a party and have promised to perform all the terms of the coatt ant. Now what have you done! What is the coufession of your organ, the New York Tribune? Lt me answer, and then you perjure yourselves to answer it In tha negative If you dare to. You, the fimncial corporations of the east bave taken tha government into your own bands and wnn such power, that no act of Congress can overcome or re list your tifcition, tnat is a hat you claim, and that is Indicated by your acts. Now sirs, what will ba your answer to this chirge? You bave never answered it only in one wav, taclt'y, by what wa call a demurrer. You know what demurrer Is but I will d fine it becaasa some who read tliee lines tnoy not know A dt munvr is an answer in court, to the declaration ia a writ; it admits tha declaration all to be trae, but says, "What of It?" And aa you say of this charge I bring against you only you don't use exactly tba same words, but at I have seen It ia prin', "Ths government, tha people la d d.' Now, looking at you from this stand point. You ara trai tors, ara you what? Yoa ara diabolical pirates. Watlano Knowlton, 8-crelary. Co A. 1st lUg. Main P P. V.

The first suggestion I have is to take courage for the coming year. The re cords of the Doane College Obs rvtory how that for the past 15 years 1873 to 1893 tho average rain fall has been 29 and 21-100 inches. That looking over the past we have not had two very dry years in succession. The average rain fall for the past ten years is 27 & 86 100 Inches. Those figures app'y to S.iutb eastern Nebr-ki. 1887 shows 21 & 95 100 Inches followed la 13SS by 27 & 55 100 inches in U39 by 30 St 14 100 lnou- In 1890 again the rain fall was only 21 & 81-100 Inches followed in 1891 by 33 Jc 57 100 innhes in 1392 by 23 & 40-10J laubes In 1893 by 22 & 55 100 inches or more than 6 Inches below the average. Look ing hack over the fifteen years it wll be contrary to the experience ot the past if we have less than full average rain fall In 1891, with the indications favoring an exoest above the averag Evidently it Is a part of wisdom to plan lor a wet spring and heavy summer rain. Furtunttely Nebraska soil eaiily absorbs exoessivo rain fall and our wet test are our mojt successful years. W'th most this is a leisure time to mske plans for the spring and summer. Send for seed catalogues, plan to hare a larg garden, which if planted in long rows so as to cultivate everything by horse and machinery can be oared for without taking much tima from tha mala crop. to seleoting from various seed lists It Is better to use almost the entire plant of reliable well tried varieties whose value is not at all lessened from the fact that they can be had at the lowest prices. Touoh high prlotid novelties lightly, lot those who have more time and means experiment with those. These sugges tions apply with yet more fores to the selection for the orchard and the fruit garden, beotnse these represent invest ments for a term of years. It Is safer to purchase from tha nearest reliable nur serymon rathar than to send to dUtaot nurseries; on the business prlnolptl that the firm nearest to the planter value his trade most and will make greatest exertions to please, tbey are also within reach In case of accident or misfortune Ordinary business prudence compels the local nurserymaa to be nnre careful to carry varieties adaoted to his own looa- tloa and trade. Most wes-ern nurt jry men are also orcbirdlsts as well as nurserymen, they have usutlly acquired expensive experience available and of value to their customers. In planting the orchard and fruit gar den it will doubtless ba found wise to de vote tha ground mainly to tha trees and plants and not to attempt to raise full crops of farm products from the same ground. Year by year it becomes mora apparent that the orohirdi aa1 fruit plantation should bo so planted and handled as to make thoro cultivation with two or four horse mtohlnery easy and practicable. Oxhard trees planted at right angles aai at dlstanoea can with profit ba cultivate 1 with disk pulverisers run by two or four horses from somet mo in May to August 15tb, with suffi slant ciltlatloa thereafter to keep down weed growth which will dis sipate the moisture needed for winter. This cannot ba done whore the attempt Is made to raise a farm crop In the orchard. It Is wlso to plan for planting the leading small fruits, since they give large returns in a brief Man. Ttioae who have not yet protected grap? vines of previous planting s ho aid atoace trim and lay down on tho ground, covering with hay or stra to protaot from the dry winds of February and Mrcb, February usually has very mild dtys suited to orchard trimming. When the frost is out af the ffood we oftn times have more comf rtabte weather for pruning thU m ioth than in the blustering diy of Maroh. E. F. Stkphkns, President, State FI irtia Ut iral Society.

Cne of her hens had been trying to set for some tima but she had been "broken up" on two or three successive nests. At lait she found a nest away bank under the house with five eggs in it, and seized upon that nest as if she bad struck upon a bonanza. There she sat patiently and triumphantly dny after day till her tima had lengthened out to two weeks. Once she, came on tha norland Mrs. Gowan looking baik under the house saw the family cat back there in tho nest She was very glad of It, for that Indicated that the eggs would go. Next day. i.owever, tho hen was back on tha nest as usuuL and thjre was no way to. get back to her. Una ly when about two weeks had gone by the hen came out. and Mrs. Cowan determined to capture her bofora she could get back. In order to make sura of it she called in tha assistance of tha fifteen-year old son of a neighbor, who in order to '-head off" the ben threw a little too hard with his stone, and us a result tha hen fluttered and died. This was tha last of tha hen. and, as Mra Gowan thought it was tha last of the nest and eggs. Her sur prise may bo imagined wbon on just a week from that day. she heard a commotion under the house and found that it was caused by tha cat trying to keep track of four little downy young chlckena After quite a whllo they all got out from under tha house, and were at once transferred to tha kitchen, where since that tima mo ther and children have boen doing well" Mra Gowan now has an in terestlng question to propound to all listeners: Which is tbo mother of the chickens tha hen that laid tha egg or tho hen that did tha setting for two weeks, or tha cat that finished the operation.

Pa Jn relating hla exiterlences and what be had suffered in consequence of the hardships he had encountered Mr. Blundla said: - "I was born at lirldgewaier, Penna., in 1841, and went through tba war as private sergeant and hospital steward in Ct mpaty C, 28th Pennsylvania Vol unteers. My service was a tive. and while in Georgta I bad aa attack of typhoid fever, which left ma weak and a ready victim for future disease. My kidneys were then affected and thfa finally developed into spinal trouble wnion in h tea through my army service. In 1806 I was mustered out with aa honorable dUchusre and entered tha Jefferson Medical College in Philadel- pnia as a siuaent. I graduated two ears later with a diploma but not prac tice. At that time I was living In Man ay unk. One day, after I had graduated, I wi.s lying on a sofa at inv home la Mansyunk, wben I felt a cold sensation n my lower limbs as thouch the blood bad suddenly left them. When I tried lo move th m I was horrified at the dis covery that I was paralysed from my nips to my toes ine paraiytis was (implete and a bin or a ulnch of tha 11 sb caused no naln. I could not move a muscle. I called In Dr. William C.

I consulted r. I. W. Gross and Dr. Psncoast of Jefferron Col- ego, Philadelphia, with tha same re sult. I railed ia Dr. Morehouxe. of Philadelphia who said that no amount medicine would ever Drove of the slightest benefit to me. Mne day last September I decided to try Dr, Williams' Pink Pill for Pale People. I sent for one box. I had al ways tx en troubled wltb a sort of ver tigo after my first stroke ef paralysis to such an extent that when I got out of my bed my bead would swim and I bad difficulty in saving myself from falling. My appetite was eac, digestive organe ruin d and no assimilatb n of food. In addition to many other ailments, rheu matism held a prominent place. Fly the time l had finished the first boxef Pink Pills I was comparatively free from t beep minor ills. My appetite retaraed, tbe digestive organs got down to their dally grind aad tbe rheumatism disap ptared. I was much ercourased and immediately sent for a half dotes boxes of Pink Pills Relief followed upon re lief with astonishing rapidity. First one all would disappear, then another, until tbe pll s got to work upon tbe foundation of my trouble paralysis. 1 felt a sense ef exhilaration and the general effect was bnefidal, becoming more so each day. Noting this fact, I Inrreased the dose from one to two pilla after each mea' for a few days. Before I bad taken six boxes of pills, I was sit ting in my chair one afternoon, when I felt a curious sensation in my left foot. Upon investigation, I found It had flexed, or, in other words, become mov able, and I could move it. Fn m that time on my improvement was steady and it was not long before I was walk iotr around on crutches with little or no djscfmfort. It ws three years before taklDg the Fink Pills that I had been able to use tbe crutches at any time. My health is daily improving and I feol sure that Pink Pills bave done me more gnrd tdan all tbe doctors and sll the medicine in thecountry, and as they are rt ft)y I can easily afford the treat meat."
