and get that of less fortunate peo- ple ¬ But manufacturing enterprises must be located in towns with surplus population and distributing facilities Every farmer and miner and livestock raiser in Texas is directly interested in the growth of Texas towns and in- tbo accumulation of capital in the towns for factory building The peo- ple ¬ of the farm who fight the growth of towns simply fight themselves The farm and the town of Texas must stand or fall together POLITICS ANI > SBCICET WORK The Cotton Plant Orangeburg S- C an Alliance journal says The News rnd Courier evidently thought it had a dnuh on the Alliance when it re- published ¬ an alleged expose of our secret work We dislike to spoil its fun but truth compels us to say that this ofttco had copies of that expose sent in soveral weeks aio clipped by wideawake Alliance men in re- mote ¬ sections of the state from the New York Sun The AUianco has boon srailiug over the matter all this tims and now after so lonpf a time when our live contempor- ary ¬ publishes it as news the Alliance is smiling again The secret work of orders purely benevolent or social may be objects of idle curiosity but never of serious con- cern ¬ The alleged oxpose of Masonry by Morgan was made at a time when the popular belief was that Masonry was inimical to the popular welfare And today peoplo carcnothing lor the secret work of the Alliance as a purely industrial and social order but when the Alliance goes into politics its secret work becomes offensive This republic is governed by political par- ties ¬ and the people will never consent that any oathbound secret organtza shall govern the country The secret work of the Alliance belongs to itself only as long as the Alliance work con- cerns ¬ itself only but when the Alliance aspires as a third party or as a cohe- sive ¬ factor in any party to dominate the politics of the republic the peoplo will resent such domination emanating from secret work Daylinht politics only cau control this country The Alliance cannot bo both partisan and nonparti- san ¬ both political and nonpolitical As a nonpartisan nonpolitical body its secret work belongs to itself as- a political organization the Alliance cannot maintain a secret work and live INVITING DANGER Actually engaged in work on the railroads in this country are 750000 men and there are fully 3000000 peo- ple ¬ men women and children who are directly and indirectly dependent upon railroad service for a living There are more ablebodied men in the service of railroads than the Confed- erate ¬ states ever bad In the field at ona time during their four years of war and the greatest war the world had ever seen up to that time What a tremendous and irresistible weight these men nearly all of them being legal voters could bring to the decision of a political contest The Peoples party and the Farmers Alliance through the Ocala platform call for a government ownership and control of the railroads if existing nbuses are not removed With gov- ernmental ¬ ownership and control comes the appointment of the men who will manage the roads and who will work them The party in power will see that this vast army shall be of their faith and as devoted to their suc ¬ cess as the postoffico force is today With such anorganizad power to op¬ ted too with the postofflce oyes running tho number up to Mc i ioned moped Lpcn Till Jy 1 hprf JjFmits d 900000 or more how could the party be displaced that has their votes and their influence The member of the Farmers Alli ance who supports the Ocala demand Lror Federal ownership of railroads plays into the hands of the men whom he tears the men in whom and through whom may come the over- throw ¬ of popular government LESS COTTON AND UETTEB PRICES The manytimes repeated suggestion to the farmers of the South to limit the production of cotton and raise the price has had so little effect that to speak of- it again is like preaching to the wind but at the risk of laying itself open to this chacge JTHE Gazette is going to from Latham Alexander Co s tton Annual what they have to say to the Southern cotton planters Unless the farmer resolves to Invest less of his capital in cotton and more in breadstuffs unless he resolves to keep the limits of his acreage in cotton moro in conformity with tho require- ments ¬ of the times he cannot reason- ably ¬ expect that amelioration in his financial condition which the producer of an article of such universal consump- tion ¬ as cotton should enjoy Unlike other produce its cultivation is limited certain latitudes and is incapable of eing indefinitely extended except in the purlieus of these latitudes Com- petition ¬ is theretore confined amongst Southern farmers themselves who be- c ¬ ause they aro unable to consume all h ey raise are dependent upon foreign nations to buy their surplus and if such surplus moro than supplies these nations wants tho result is the mar- kets ¬ of the world become overstocked and the wholo crop is depressed beyond its intrinsic value when it is no longer a money crop The European spinner prefers American cotton when he can get it and is willing to pay a premium to ob- tain ¬ it If on account of its scarcity or relative dearness he uses other growths he does so under compulsion To us therefore it seem that the farmer has tho shaping of his own des- tinies ¬ moro in his own hands than one would think he has It behooves him to become a student of the industrial world to extend tho range of his vision beyond tho confines of his own planta- tion ¬ If he will do this we do not doubt that in the future ho will become more and more independent and share in a greater degree the prosperity of the most progressive section of that country which is today tho wonder of the world THE CAUSK OK OUR POVERTY Upon the authority of tho state com- missioner ¬ of agriculture it is asserted that about three million dollars a year go out of Toxas for the single item of bacon and Texas is an agricultural state that ought to export bacon If being an agricultural state and yet usiiig 83000000 a year to buy bacon from the farmers in other states how much do we take from our money sup- ply ¬ to purchase the manufactured products of other states Wo raise more cotton than any othor state but we send to Massachusetts and Rhode Island for our cotton goods We have more sheep than any other state but the woolen goods come from tho same manufactories We have iron and coal and wood in abundance but our wagons our plows our machinery of all kinds come from the North and the East For everything that we use ex- ceptraw cotton and wool and jattle on the foot wo pay out our money How much do we send out of the state for these goods Well wo raise about seventyfive million dollars worth of cotton every year and our cattle wheat and sheep will swell this sum to 8100000000 At the end of the year we have precious little cash on hand We must have sent about all of it out of the state for it is certainly not here It has been asserted as an argument in favor of tho Gossett alien land law that we are paying to foreign money- lenders four or five million dollars a year for interest What is this com- pared ¬ to tne enormous sums we are paying other states for manufactured goods It is certain that this drain of our money for Northern goods will never cease until we begin to make those goods ourselves It is also just as certain that we have not the money to establish manufacturing plants nec- essary ¬ to supply our homo demaud and we cannot get this money from the Eastern money centers It must come from foreigners Could we not well afford to pay 5000000 more of interest to English money lenders if by doing sc we could get capital enough to build our own manufacturing plants and keep at home the hundred millions or- so that we are now depleted of We would be very largely the gainer by It for we should be about ninety millions a year better off But we cannot get foreign monoy as long as the alien land law stands among our statutes We have banished the only hope of our independence and un- less ¬ the law is modified or declared unconstitutional by the supreme court we shall continue to work for the en- richment ¬ of protected Northern manu- facturers ¬ end through fear of the evil effects of spending five millions a year for interest we will continue to spend a hundred millions a year for manufac- tures ¬ RAILWAY CONSOLIDATION C P Huntington makes a plea for railway consolidation in the North American Review that if he be worth anything proves the need for govern- ment ¬ ownership of railroads There are many reasons in his opinion why all the railroads of the country should be brought under a single controlling and directing agency Among them mftfm are the cessationof rate wars the vast saving inexpenses from the numerous economies secured the stoppage of re- bates ¬ drawbacks and the numerous discriminations that now anger the people and ao on The amalgamation of all the roads into one grand system will he thinks obviate all the troubles inequalities and injuries that result from the competition of rival and frag- mentary ¬ lines Tho great desideratum is of course the destruction of compe- tition ¬ Another no less important in Mr Huntingtons estimation is immu- nity ¬ from legal interference or legisla- tive ¬ regulation in any shape or form He says on this point Of all property railroads should have the largest free- dom ¬ in order that they may be able to earn sufficient to pay a fair Interest upon the capital invested and to earn it in a way that shall most nearly con- serve ¬ the interests of their patrons and tbemselve3 He then adds that the courts will take care of tho peo- ples ¬ interests by preventing rates from going up and restricting the earnings of the roads to a reasonable figure Mr Huntington has great faith in the courts the sheet anchor as he calls the judiciary of all we hold dear and which as he says will stand between tho rights of the many and tho few By few it is supposed he means the railwar magnates His faith in the judiciary is greatly strengthened by some remarks of Jus- tice ¬ Brewer concerning the rights of railroads which remarks of the great jurist he quotes approvingly As the great jurist expressed concern only about tho rights of the few and not of the many it would bo well for the many If there were but a few of him on- tho bench When circuit judge in Mis ¬ souri and Kansas a few years ago this great jurist decided that rates could not be reduced by state authority be- low ¬ a point of earning canacity equal to the cost of operation maintenance payment of interest and a reasonable dividend on capital slock There was no limitation or qualification as to fictitious stock or water Concerning this decision tho Kansas board of railroad commissioners says in its last report that the rule im- posing ¬ upon the community tho burden of being taxed to make returns of profit upon shares that represent no outlay or investment is a fraud on tho public Elsewhere it is called a pub- lic ¬ guarantee of interest and income to every holder of railroad securities and puts tho burden and risk of railroad construction and profitable operation in the public without allowing it influ- ence ¬ or voice in the creating of liabil- ities ¬ the issuanco of stock or the ad- ministration ¬ of tho property It would take from tho state every vital element of power to protect its citizens against unjust and unreasonable corporate ex- actions ¬ and would make losses and costs of misfeasance and malfeasance In railroad management a public charge So argues the Kansas commission about this famous decision of the great jurist who earned his promotion to the supreme bench by making decisions ofv that character in the interest of the railroads It is in such jurists as Brewer that the railroads would con- fide ¬ their interests and not in commis- sions ¬ or regulative statutes Mr Hunt- ington ¬ will find that he and the people are wide apart on that subject ABOUT SOME PEOPLE Mrs John Sherwood says it is not un- usual ¬ for Now York hostesses to spend 1000 on a luncheon for twenty women Frederick Douglass heartily dissents from Bishop Turners policy of improving the American negros condition by shipping him

Review Professor J L Ray of Ashland Va who has been studying the moon through a tele- scope ¬ says there has recently been extra- ordinary ¬ volcanic action on the planet Ht- siys that on the night of June 22 tremen- dous ¬ energy oier the whole surface pre- sented ¬ itself I saw that what of lato- havo been considered great gray plains are in reality great seas or elso a molten mass as I saw Immense sheets seemingly of water thrown through tho lunarian atmos- phere ¬ and find a resting place at least a thousand miles from where they formerly were I saw several geat mountains sink the whole moon swayed to and fro and everything in tho lunar heavens was in the wildest confusion I gazed with Intcuust awe upon this awful spectacle for hours until the confusion finally subsided and there seemed to be a dead calm as before I feel fully confident that the moon was thrown several degrees out of her course and she Is also perceptible nearer perhaps 20000 miles No other astronomer appears to have noticed these disturbances Doesnt Need It- Viaxanacaie Enterprise Tho farmer who markets his surplus pro- duce ¬ and puts in hU wot days repairing his premises doesnt nead the

establishment of Ar- mour ¬ Co made an importation of tin- plate for use in the manufacture of cans for meats The duty of 3 210 cents per pound wa3 paid subjoct to a rebate if the cans were exported The cans filloi with meats will be exported no doubt and 99 par cent of duty paid on tha tinplate will be refunded Tinplato used in this country however pays the tariff and there is no re- bate ¬ In this way the American is taxed for such provisions as ho buy3 in cans while the foreigner by express provision of tha McKinley bill gets his American provisions in cans that bear no tax This is a point that the Herald would call to the attention of the various high tax orators who are insinuating that tho tariff taxes are paid by foreigners They do not say this in words but that is the im- pression ¬ that they convey Not a dollar of the tariff tax Is paid by foreigners It is all borne by tho American consumers In the case of exported tinned meats the Mc- Kinley ¬ law kcepiug the tax ou Americans expressly removes it for the benefit of for- eigners ¬ Per Capita Circulation Atlanta Constitution The phrase per capita circulation is mis- leading ¬ It is very encouraging to see it stated that we have In this country so many dollars per hoad lit circulation hut tho main point to be considered is the matter of distribution As a recont writer on this subject makes plain the problem for economists to study is first the amount of money in the coun- try ¬ and second its distribution One hundred dollars per capita means nothing unless it is so distributed and employed as- to enable every worker to use it In earning a living Now our financial system is so arranged that banks treasurers of corporations and other citizens keep millions of dollars under lock and key This hoarded monoy is held for a reserve to answer some sudden and unexpecte d demand Anything that ham- pers ¬ money a single gold standard for in- stance ¬ prevents the adjustment of cur- rency ¬ to the demands of production and business When the government raises an excessive revenue and holds it in the treas- ury ¬ the natural conditions of trade are in- terfered ¬ with and the problem of distribu- tion ¬ becomes more complicated The remedy broadly stated is to have enough monoy to meet the legitimate wants of business and have a revenue system un- der ¬ which the government will draw from the people through the medium of taxation only enough to answer the needs of an eco- nomical ¬ administration There can be no hope of securing a generally beneficial dis- tribution ¬ of the currency until we get started on thi line In discussing the financial issues of the day the fact should always bo borne in mind that tha per capita circulation means very little unless the facilities of distribu- tion ¬
