We boldly declare oar oonvictlon that
there is no possibility of having any
efficient system of financial reform that
la not squarely based on governmental
banking, and we are glad to aee that ao
able and Influential an economic writer
as George C Ward, of KanaaaCity, Ma,
is of our opinion, and as will be seen by
the subjoined letter recently received
from him, that "the people's banking
system," which in main essentials is
based on the admirable plan formulated
by Prof. II HI, will a ton be championed
by farmer leaders everywhere.

Fraternally, Uxorok a Ward.
The entire difference between our
selves and Mr. Ward has now resolved
itself Into the question of interest to be
paid depositors, where we suggest three
per cent, on time deposits he would cut
it down to Hi per cent.
In hl. devotion to an abstract princi
ple Mr. Ward would endanger the
chanco of giving the poople any relief
from the tyranny of the present
oligarchy of money monopolists who
axe now devouring the prosperity of
the country. While we, on the other
hand, are in favor of making the largest
concessions In order to secure a sub
stantial triumph.
We want victory and desire to get It
In the shortest possible space of time.
The need of the people is dire and urg
ent, for we are now absolutely under
the dominion of the money power. It
is la full possession of the political,
financial and commercial systems of
the country. It is heavily armed and
courageous and any one that thinks we
can overcome it with ease is destined
to be much mistaken, because, after we
have used Judicious compromising and
wise policy to the uttermost, there Is a
stubborn battle before us and lor a
long time it will hang doubtful in the
balance.
At the present time, when we are so
weak and the money power so strong,
what would be the tactics indicated by
good generalship that wins victories?
Would it not be to see to it that our
plan of financial reform was made so
broad and generous that all the well-to-do
middle class would throw their in
fluence and votes with us instead of
ranging themselves on the side of the
enemy? To us this seems a very plain
proposition.
There are millions of good people
who have saved up more or less money
tinder financial conditions that have
been practically unchanged for ages.
These people were not responsible for
those conditions and when they are
radically changed, it is both wisdom
and Justice to so change them that it
will not Inflict punishment and loss on
innocent persons. If it were impossible
to do this, we should say let the reform
fro on no matter what temporary hard
ships may follow the establishment of
a permanent blessing for all people.
But these injuries are totally un
called for and entirely unnecessary, in
this Instance, and their infliction would
be nothing short of deliberate cruelty
and injustice. And, mark you, the at
tempt to Inflict them would defeat
Itself, and the people would find them
selves deprived of the blessings of cheap
money, an abundanee of the circulating
medium and all the rloh advantages
that would flow therefrom, ad still
tinder the merciless dominion of the
Shy lock money master, and all because
they lacked the charity, policy and true
visdom which should have led them to
give due consideration to the great dif
ficulties always attending the change
of long established conditions, and also
to have a kindly regard for the feel
ings and interests of a large class of
their worthy fellow-citizens, and not to
work them an injury where there was
no vital necessity for so doing.
Prof. Hill's system provides for the
gradual decrease of the rate of inter
est, both paid to depositors and secured
from borrowers, until ultimately the
government would pay one per cent to
depositors and loan money at two.
But in the name of oomman sense why
not wisely come down to this by de
grees, and give commercial affairs and
the Individual Interests of the people a
chance to adjust themselves to this
great change, Instead of doing it at
once out of hand and with no regard to
who or what gets hurt? There is no
need of this fierce precipitancy, and it
will beyond a doubt meet overwhelm
ing defeat
We a&k the farmers of the country if

which would at once put eighteen hun
dred million dollars in circulation w Ik re
we have now only about three hundred
million, and giving even five per cent
to depositors and lending to borrowers
at six per cent, we ask theiu if their
present condition and future prospects,
would not be Immeasurably Improved
over what they are to-day? Then we
jvould still have a chance to gradually
work down to a lower rate of interest
in a wise, temperate and considerate
manner that would involve no shock
to business, or loss to ludividual
1 In the meantime, all the horde of
private bankers, Shylocks and loan
6Uarka would be wiped out
The question is will you take the
bountiful blessing within reach or with
stubborn hoggishness will you reject
that and stretch out for something be
yond your hands and so get nothing at
all' That is the whole Issue in a nut
shell. ' Mr. 11. II. English, of Wessington,
S. D., writes a communication to the
Ruralist, of Huron, conceruingthe Hill
banking system, from which we take
the subjoined wise extract.
"The advocate of the sub-treasury
plan are being decslved certainly not
Ita oppouenU. We don't oare anything
about the constitutionality of It, as we
never exwet to have aa occasion to
try it It i held up by a few as the best
known metu.d, to thorn, by which a
part of the wealth producers, the farm
ers, will receive the greatest good.
18, I know of a bettor plan, and so do
a majority of my audience. The Hill
- banking system is the plan I refer to
system which takes weeks to be put
in operation where the sub-treasury
plan takes yearfd a systeaa which does
away with national banks; a system
which does not call in a loan when we
aed it the worst, and a system which
loans m mey to anyone who can give
jood security, whereas the sub-treasury
' "plan loans money to farmers only and
(does not take iato co&sideraUo-a tfi5
outer we aim producers. The mecnanic,
the miner, the factory hands and all
other classes of the common people are
left out The sub-treasury plan is bet
ter than no plan ut all."
These are the views of a levelheaded
farmer, and we have no question bat
they will become general so soon as
the farmers are fully informed as to
the manifest practicability and univer
sal advantages of the plan of whiclwwe
give the subjoined, general explana
tion. The money question now has first
place in the political thought of the
producing masses of eur nation. For
some twenty years far-sighted patri
ots, commonly known as "greenback
era," have advocated fifty dollars per
capita government paper money in
circulation. They have opposed na
tional banks as being in the nature of
special privileges which are entirely
out of harmony with our democratio
theory of government and they have
also relentlessly battled against the
gold standard, that inevitably leads to
a contraction of the currency which al
ways serves the interests of the capital
ists at the expense of those of the
toiler.
The general propositions which the
greenbacker contended for are just in
principle, sound in politico-economics,
and If put into practice would bring a
universal blessing to our whole people.
How comes it then, after a score of
years of unselfish agitation and persist
ent arguing, with right justice and
business common sense so manifestly
on the side of the champions of the
"people's money," that thev have ac
complished absolutely nothing In the
way of righteous reform? The bank
ing guild still has its fangs deep set in
the throat of the people's prosperity,
and the currency of the country is con
tracted or expanded according to the
needs of the stock gamblers
and capitalistic sharks, but never
with reference to the general advantage
of the producing masses. A few mill
ionaire bankers name the secretary of
the treasury, and dictate his policy in
all emergencies, while the money power
of the leagued corporations, trusts and
banks has been so commanding and all
potential in the national congress that
the people have been unable to secnr
even a hint of relief throuch risrhteous
financial legislation.
This is the exact status of the casa
to-day, and it Is full time that some
thing was promptly done to change it
lor the Detter.
The new financial system that finallv
triumphs must be so full of virtue, lus-
tice and practicability that it will com
pel ine assent or all honest and intelli
gent citizens on a fair and full pre
sentation of its claims. It must be
positively Impregnable to valid and
logical assaults from the most learned
and astute special pleaders in the rmv
ef the money power. Its merits must
be palpable and easy of comprehension
10 ail persons ox average information
and ordinarily rood Indsrment: and
finally, like the fructifying sunlight it
must Bring Impartial blessing to hon
est citizens of all classes and condi
tions. The millions of artisans, clerks
and small business men in towns
B.uu cmes must see in tne re
formed money system help, hope
and prosperity for themselves, in
dividually and collectively, and
millions of farmers must also behold in
it precisely the same promise to them
of the good things to come. Any plan
of financial reform which does not meet
these requirements is foredoomed to
failure, and will never be wrought into
law by the votes of a majority of our
people.
We believe the Hill banking system
will stand all the tests designated. This
system provides for 0,000 government
banks, with three billion of greenbacks
in circulation, waging no war on gold
and silver, but letting those metals take
eare of themselves. Loan money on
land and chattels at four per cent per
annum, thus wiping out every private
mortgage in the country in less than
one year. Pay to depositors three per
oent on their loans, which Is but fair,
lor there are hundreds of thousands of
frugal men and women who have saved
up a little money under past financial
conditions, and It would .be a cruel
shame to suddenly and arbitrarily make
them lose it through no fault of their
own.
The Hill banking system kills off all
national and private bankers. It
crushes out all mortgage fiends and
loan sharks. It keeps all the money in
the country in constant circulation. Tt
stimulates industry in ten thousand
channels and sets all idle men to work.
It makes the farmer's mortgage no
longer a burden, but something easy to
carry, for the government will be his
kindly creditor; and, moreover, the
Dill banking system does not stand in
the way of any other financial reform,
which may afterwards be found neces
sary. Farmer's Voice.
Since writing the forecrolnsr letter to
Brother Hubbard, I find it necessary to
modify one of my statements, to-wit:
While it is true that in England and
Europe the net annual increase in na
tional wealth is but three per cent, or
even less, I find that in the United
States, from 1870 to 1890. the net in
crease has been just about four per
cent, compounded in 1SS0. Hence
' three per centT interest would abso b
only three-fourths, instead of all the

THE CROW AS A PET.
A Mlechievous Bird That Can Be Taught
to Talk Better Than a Parrot.
Crows make very amusing pets for
anyone who can put up with their in
nate spirit of deliltry, and besides that
they oan be taught to talk more dis
tinctly than most parrots. It is a com
mon idea among the country people
that they will not talk unless their
tongues are cut at a certain tender age.
Be that as it may, I have heard crows
talk excellently that never had their
tongues cut, and some whose tongues
are cut never will talk at alL I always
take my chances without cutting, and
out of nearly a dozen that I have owned
only two proved void of a bump of lan
guage. To be sure of having a good, affec
tionate crow, take him from the nest as
soon after hatching as you can find him.
If it is the first of the brood hatched, all
the better. How are you to tell that?
Why, if you find one baby crow and
four eggs in the nest does not that set
tle the question beyond dispute? Name
him as soon as you get home. It is a
good plan to have a family consultation
on this subject for a rechristening is
fatal to the proper education of your
callow charge. Always call him. by
name when you feed him. He will
learn his name before he knows what
feathers are, and respond to it when
ever he hears it uttered. Feed, until
half-fledged, on meal and water
regular "chicken dough" and if any
"chicken sickness" come on consult the
"chicken doctor." In other words, the
young crow must be raised on about
the same diet as a young chicken.
Feed plenty and feed often. A crow's
nest is the best thing to keep him in
during his infantile days. If you
haven't one make a substitute. As he
grows in strength and is able to travel
about a little he needs more variety in his
food, but be careful he does not swallow
anything that is very salt Dump a
handful of gravel down his mouth oc
casionally, and give him minnows and
frogs once in awhile. Swallowing his
first live frog seems to give a young
crow a most agreeable new sensation.
Do not be in any hurry about making
him bathe. He will wash himself
whenever it is necessary, and if taken
and plunged into cold water v. hile the
pinfeathers are full of blood it may
cause him to literally "catch his death
o' cold." As soon as he is well on the
wing his language lesson should begin.
Shut him up in a darkened room when
weU fed, and begin by whispering the
word or phrase you wish him to learn.
If he seems to listen, repeat it a little
louder and continue until he either
grows restless or goes to sleep. It will
be but a few minutes. Repeat the
same lesson and nothing else every
time you visit him or pass within hear
ing for a week or ten days, and if your
crow don't talk in that time he proba
bly never will. Generally they will
begin to practice to themselves
the first or second day of their
Imprisonment but once a word
or phrase is learned, others will
quickly foUow. If really talented, you
can make your crow appear to answer
any question. For instance, call his
name gently and add "what" in a loud,
emphatic tone. Soon, when his name
is called, he will respond "what" with
just the same emphasis and inflection
that he has heard you give. Then,
again, if you say "it's dinner time"
whenever you feed him, some day he
will walk into the house hungry and
gravely announce: "It's dinner time."
As he grows in years and knowledge
your crow will develop a variety of
thievish and amusing tricks too numer
ous to mention. He will cultivate the
most friendly acquaintance with some
people, and show an unaccountable
animosity toward others. He will at
tend you part way whenever you leave
home, and, if your hours of return are
regular, will probably meet you at the
same spot and welcome you exuberant
ly. Every time he fails to do so look
for him at once: he will either be in
some utterly entrancing bit of mischief
or else dead. Nature's Realm.
FRENCH COFFEE.
Artificial Berriea Sold for the Genuine
Article.
The art of adulteration seems cer
tainly to be carried to a very alarming
point when coffee berries are com
pounded from the flour of some cereal,
molded to shape, and then torrefied so
as to resemble the true berry, and are,
as stated by a French paper, only sold
to grocers and others at a price which
yields sixty-nix to one hundred per cent
more than the usual profit When the
grocer expresses hlB surprise that cof
fee, which is now very dear, can be of
fered at the price asked, he is informed
that it is of artificial origin,
but can not be detected if
mixed with a certain proportion of
genuine berries. Some details are,
however, furnished by an official in
spector and published in the same pa
per, which will help to detect the fraud.
The false berry Is not so smooth as the
real, and its slit is not so long nor so
deep. ' It Is much harder, too, than the
genuine coffee berry, which can easily
be split by inserting the finger-nail in
the slit The new product has a faint
and nauseating taste, very different
from genuine coffee, and will resist
very hard pressure. It is clear that
"coffee as made in France" will pres
ently become a motto which restau
rant keepers in Britain will no longer
put up for the attraction of customers.

nothing so impudently fraudulent as
these bogus coffee berries has been

ROYAL BARBERS.
ToxtBOrtal Artists of the Russian and Ger.
man Monaroha.
A despot should wear a full beard or
shave himself. No nihilist will ever
get a chance at the czar of Russia with
a razor, at least in the guise of a bar
ber. The autocrat has his whiskers
trimmed, but with scissors. Even this
is treated as a responsible and Import
ant function, and of the four "grand
masters of the court." as they are
called, one always attends the czar
when his majesty is under the barber's
care. Not that any doubt is felt as to
the fidelity of the tonsorlal artist. The
family of Guelabovski have been bar
bers to the imperial house of Romanoff
from the time of the Czar PauL The
first of the name, Michael, was employ
ed when a youth in the palace at St
Petersburg, and one of his occasional
duties was to shave the emperorr" The'
nobles who conspired the death of Paul
offered the young barber a reward that
must have seemed dazzling to him if
he would cut the emperor's throat
Michael pretended to agree, "but took
the first opportunity to inform the im
perial chamberlain, Count Troubetskoi.
The latter, In vain, warned the weak
minded czar of the conspiracy against
his life; and PauL history tells, was
murdered in his bed-chamber by the
nobles who had plotted to destroy him.
When Alexander I. came to the throne
he was reminded by Count Troubetskio
of the fidelity of young Michael, and in
recognition of his devotion to the im
perial family, Alexander, by a special
decree, appointed Michael Guelabovski
and his descendants to be barbers to
the czar and his household. Alexander
was in the habit of being shaved, and
during his reign of a quarter of a cen
tury he never hesitated to entrust the
task to Michael, whose grandson now
holds the place by right of descent As
before stated, the office is a good deal
of a sinecure with the present czar, so
far as shaving is concerned.
It is the duty of the imperial barber
to attend his august master every
morning, Immediately after the czar
has risen and performed his ablutions,
for the purpose of dressing his hair and
beard. This is done in the presence of
one of the grand masters of the court.
To the outside world the, Michael Guel
abovski at the present day Is a sphinx.
He has never been known to reveal the
secrets of the Romanoff toilet or wheth
er he talks to his majesty.or is occasion
ally honored with a remark from the
lips whose utterances are to Russia like
the laws of the Medes and Persians. It
is safe to presume, however, that Mich
ael cultivates the virtue of silence in the
imperial presence as well as out of it
and that he never asks the czar wheth
er he wants a shampoo, or would like
a little cosmetic on his mustache.
Michael goc wherever the czar trav
els, and it is through the occasional vis
its of the Russian autocrat to his father-in-law
at Copenhagen that the bar
ber's personality is known to the world,
there being much less ceremony and se
crecy in the Danish palace that at St
Petersburg.
The two former kaisers of the Ger
man empire both wore full beards. In
Irussia the barber has never been an
official personage, the selection being
entrusted to the marshal of the house,
at present the Baron von Lyncker. The
aged ,Kaiser William had a constant
and faithful personal attendant in Lud
wig Kanitz. the son of a Brandenburg
peasant who from performing ordinary
menial duties in the palace grew to be
the confidential servant of the king and
emperor. Kanitz was Inseparable from
his master in war and peace, and he
could undoubtedly have given memoirs
to the world as Interesting in some re
spects as those of Bismarck. The pro
longation of the kaiskr's life to a great
age was no doubt due largely to the
faithful ministrations of this humble
personage, who never shared in the
bosors or lame that crowned others
less intimately associated with his mas
ter. Kanitz did not long survive the
emperor. He was dismissed on a pen
sion sufficient to support him in com
fort, but he soon died and was buried
in the churchyard of his native village
in Brandenburg. St Louis Republic

tain city to exhibit a lot of live turkeys
in its windows about Christmas time
and announce to the public that every
purchaser of a suit of clothes gets a
turkey gratis. Last winter the firm
employed a man to stand on the corner
and call the attention of the people to
the great bargains on the inside. This
Israelite was a frequenter of poker
rooms and quite a sport as far as his
money went c
One day a gambler passed Vhe clothing-store
and, attracted by the crier,
stepped up to him and began talking,
the two having met across the green
cloth in the past.
"Say, Jakey, what kind of clothes
have they got inside?" he asked of the
crier.
"Oh, they're first-class. Just as good
as you can buy anywhere."
"Then I don't see why it wouldn't be
a great scheme to buy a cheap suit of
clothes, for the turkey would be worth
the price if the clothes were no good."
"Oh, that's where you get left. Them
turkeys in the windows is only plug
gers. When you buy a suit you get a
canary bird." Detroit Free Press.
DAZZLING DIAMONDS.
A Dealer's Interesting Talk on the Scintil
lating Beauties.
"Women exhibit a much more refined
taste in the wearing of jewelry than
they did a few years ago," remarked a
well-known jeweler to a reporter this
morning, "but the dear things cost just
as much to ornament as ever, if not
more. The unobtrusive diamond that
twinkles from the .center of a tiny
pendant costs fully as much as the
gorgeous lithographic gold medals with
which women were wont to bedeck
themselves a short time ago.
"Lithographic gold medals may not
be a correct term for the old style of
jewelry, scientifically speaking," he
continued, "but it expresses my opinion
of that sort of stuff. Why, our women
looked like barbarians a few years ago,
and they needed but a ring through
their noses to be real howling Orientals.
They were painfully loud, even as it
was.
"How do we jewelers like the change?
Bless you, we are delighted. We save
thousands of dollars annually in stor
age alone. Our stock now can be kept
within reasonable bounds. The jewelry
worn to-day is more expensive than that
of former years, as precious stones are
being used more and more. Diamonds,
for Instance, are now within the reach
of anybody who is comfortably fixed.
Time can not dull the pure brilliancy of
these stones, and, while all that have
ever been on the market are still there,
others are being added from time to
time, as the diamond fields are more
thoroughly worked. A small diamond
of the purest water can be purchased
for five dollars. Of course, the immense
stones, such as are worth several thou
sands of dollars, are bought up from
time to time by rich families, and thus
for time taken out of the market;
but still many a diamond has passed
through many a proud race and
at last has found a resting place in a
jeweler's casket. A diamond is like a
man. Let them rise to whatever proud
heights they may, and let the whole
world gaze enraptured upon their daz
zling brilliancy, It is to this end they
must both return and begin a new life
in a simple casket
"Here is a jewel that illustrates my
point exactly. Twenty-three years ago
last February, as I was about to close
up one terribly stormy night, a shabby
young man entered my shop and of
fered to sell me a gold ring containing
this stone surrounded by a ring of small
sparklers. He asked one hundred and
fifty dollars for the ring, saying it was
all he had In the world. Ordinarily, I
would have flatly refused to deal with
such a person, fearing to buy stolen
property, and, indeed, I put him off
that night with a lame excuse, al
though I admitted the value of the
stone, and asked him to call around
the next day. He declared that he
must dispose of It that night and his
anxiety made me more fearful, and at
last I firmly refused to have anything
further to do with him until the next
day. On the morrow he came to me,
saying that he had pawned the ring for
a trifling sum, as he was forced to do so
to get accommodations for the night, but
desired me to go with him to the pawn
broker's shop and examine the stone
more closely. I did so, and struck a
bargain with him and paying him the
difference between my price and the
pawn debt carried off the jewel. I was
strictly a business man then, and asked
no questions, although the fellow could
probably have told an interesting story
about the stone. Well, I reset the
stone in a lady's ring and a month later
it was carried off by an exultant lover,
and it sparkled on the hand of a blush
ing bride in high life soon after. We
jewelers keep track of a fine stone for
years, for we realize the ups and downs
of fortune. Well, to give you the
facts of the case without the
romance, ten years later I paid
a half-starved, shivering woman
exactly what her lover had paid
me for the ring a week before her mar
riage, and as she led away her golden
haired girl she felt that she was rich
with what she would have thrown aside
a decade before. The next purchaser
was a portly old. gentleman, who gave
it to his young wife, whom he had taken
from her school books to assume the
management of a grand old mansion.
It was just two years ago that the old
gentleman, still hale and hearty, en
tered my shop leading by the band a
bright-eyed little fellow, whom he in
troduced as his son and heir. Then he
stated the object of his visit He said
the ring reminded him too much and too
painfully of the fair young mother who
never saw the face of her baby boy. He
offered it to me at a bargain, and now
for two years it has remained in this
simple casket waiting for another ad
venture. Cincinnati Times-Star.

Comparatively few persons know that
the Worth monument, beside being a
monument to Die "bravest of the brave,"
whom "amor patriae ducit," is a tomb
stone as well. Iiut it is. William Jen
kins Worth, a gallant and successful
soldier, sleeps underneath the obelisk
whereon his battles are sculptured, and
hundreds of thousands to whom the
monument is a daily sight know noth
ing of the man to whom it was raised.
At one time Worth was aide to Gen.
Scott. Scott was six feet four inches
in height. Worth six feet two inches.
Scott admits that he considered himself
handsome; Worth was acknowledged to
be the handsomest man in the army. A
glorious sight the two giants must have
made as they walked in the gorgeous
uniforms of half a century ago down
Broadway to army headquarters, or
saar.tered among the bloods and fair
ladies of those days. N. Y. Sun.

An amateur bee-keeper of Penobscot

most every day last season. Among
other valuable lessons was this: While
working among his hot-footed charges
he clumsily upset a hive. He was shield
ed by netting and loose overalls, and
could watch with amusement the fran
tic jabbing of the forty thousand bees
that covered his anatomy. After a mo
ment, however.he thdughtlessly stooped
to pick up the hive.. Then It was that
the bees were amused. The loose over
alls were drawn tight, and the bee
keeper didn't enjoy himself for two
weeks. Detroit Free Press.
