Farmers, as well as manufacturers
and merchants, are directly aud vi
tally interested in the currency leg
islation now before Congress. Last
fall, during the height! of industrial,
commercial and agricultural pros
perity, all interests received a shock
from which they have not yet recov
ered, and the principal cause of it
was our unscientific, inelastic and
antiquated system of currency,
which no other nation in the world
would tolerate.
Our currency system affects the
farmer and cotton grower in this
way: In the late summer and fall o‘
each year, they need a large amount
of currency with which to pay their
help; and others need it to buy their
grain or cotton with and to pay
transportation and other charges
It is estimated that several hundred
Billions of dollars are needed for this
special purpose each season. Last
fall, when western aud southern
Country banks tried to get back the
money which they had on deposit in
New York, they could not get it, or
at least not as much as they needed.
There were two reasons for this:
In the first place, some of the New
York banking interests felt it neces
sary to use considerable of their
funds to prevent the market price of
stocks and bonds from becoming 100
greatly depreciated; and in the sec
ond place, the run upon and subse
quent closing of, one of New York’s
largest trust companies, scared the
banks to such an extent that they
summarily suspended cash payments,
and boarded their money for fear of
possible runs on them. Almost in
stantly banks all over the country
followed New York’s example and
naturally, the public became alarm
ed, many depositors insisted upon
withdrawing their funds, and others
hoarded their money instead of de
positing it, for fear they could not
withdraw it when wanted. Busi
ness, for the time being, was paral
yzed and everybody suffered. No
other nation in the world suffered in
this way, because other nations had
scientific currency systems, while the
United States had what Andrew
Carnegie calls “not only the worst
system in the world, but the worst
ever devised by the misguided in
genuily of man.” The basic trouble
is that our currency is issued against
bonds, which banks can buy to ad
vantage when they are low and sell
■when they are high; consequently
we frequently have an abundance of
currency when it is not needed, there
by stimulating speculation; and we
frequently have a shortage when the
agricultural and commercial inter*
ests need large amounts—and these
interests, through forced sales at
panic prices, or through enforced
liquidation, must therefore pay the
penalty for the shortages
Two remedial currency measures
are now before Congress which are
radically different in principle, and
which vitally affect all business in
terests. One, the Aldrich bill,
makes no pretense of being anything
more than a “makeshift;” it would
not only continue our present faulty
bond-secured currency system, but
would extend it in away that many
regard as dangerous to the general
business interests of the country- It
would provide for the issuance 01
$500,0('0,000 additional currency
based on state, municipal and rail
road bonds, and subject to six per
cent, interest. How many' country
banks now own slate, municipal qi
railroad bonds? Very few. Conse
quently the additional currency
could oaly be secured by that class
of banks which have large holdings
of, or interest in, bonds. Would it
be well for the agricultural or com
mercial interests to have said issu
ance controlled by investment or
speculative interests ? Country
Gentleman.
President Roosevelt sent another
message to Congress Monday even- ■
icg. The message was not read,
however, until Tuesday. In the
main the document is a recapitula
tion of other messages which have
recently been sent in by the execu
tive.
Among other things Mr. Roose
velt says that while the employ os'
liability law which has been enacted
comes short of what should have
been done, it nevertheless represents
an advance.
The president enters into an ex-;
baustive review of national and j
State legislation on interstate c*m- j
merce lines, and he makes certain I
recommendations which ho thinks j
may bring about belter relations be j
tween capital and labor.

FOR THE SALE OF SPIRITUOUS OR FERMENTED LIQUOR
AGAINST THE SALE OF SPIRITUOUS OR FERMENTED LIQUOR
THIS SALOON OK NO SALOON
WHICH?
\
When a great moial question is sub
mitted to the arbitrament of the ballot
it is the duty of every citizen to have an
earnest and enlightened interest in the
result. On May 13th, next, the peopleof
Prince George’s County, shall decide
whelh er or not sal®n longer be licens
ed in our midst.
This is a great question, and cold and
insensible must be the nature to which
it does not strengly appeal. It i nvolves
not a mere issue of party expediency or
governmental policy but the intergrity
of individual character, the purity of the
home aud the general welfare of the
country.
The vote upon the question of the
continuance or the abolition of the
saloons, in Prince George’s County,
will test the worth of our citizenship.
It will decide whether we shall con
tinue to stand for drunkenness, that is
increasing with alarming extent, a
scourge more destructive than the hur
ricane, more devasting than famine and
pestilence; for the sale of Intoxicating
liquor to minors and habitual drunk
ards; for tbe desecration of the Sab
bath; the toleration af gamblng and
prostitution, the promotion of idleness
disorder aud crime; the bribery of the
officers of the iaw and a general de
moralization, so insidious in its growth
that most of ua are unaware of its
enormity.
It will be decided whether Prince
George’s County, one the oldest settle
ments of our beloved State, once bless
ed with an unrivaled prosperity, with a
people once gallant and noble, is yet
true to its hallowed traditions.
Whether it shall arise from the pre
sent state of depression and immorality
and claim that progressive and enlight
ened position, to which its resources
pro eminently qualify it, or through in
difference and culpable error, continue
the downward path of material deprecia
tion and social infamy.
But why should the saloon not be
driven from our country ?
Are they places that furnish to u a
wholesome food or dens that serve a
dangerous drug?
Are. they galleries or art, where na
ture is portrayed in vivid fragments,
by the painter’s genius or rather
decorated with lewed pictures ot a
lascivious sentimeut, that stimu late a
low and sensual taste ?
Do their walls re-echo with the sweet
and soothing melody of a classic music,
or rather re-souud with vulgar speech
and ribald laughter ?
Do they furnish dramatic entertain
ment, where our poetic spirit is touch
ed with humorous error and tragic
justice, or rather the scene of a shame
less levity, that profanes the nost
sublime theme of life ?
Are they meeting places for an inno
cent social enjoyment, for the cultiva
tion of the mind, the exaltation of tbe
soul, or rather haunts of bestile grati
fication, of petty gambling and vile
prostitution ?
They are a standing temptation to
our youth, unaffrighted by the borrows
of intemperance; for the wasting away
of the time and money of otherwise
good men ; a loafing joint for the idle
and venal.
They take away from the natural
course of business our SIBO,OOO, each
year and send meet of it without the
country; thev are the direct cause of
seventy per cent, of our crime, that
costs the county, annually over $13,000,
as against $6,000 received from licenses,
they have destroyed an efficient and re
liable labor class, which reduces the
assessed valuation of our farm lands
over $8,000,000. which means an annual
loss to the revenue of the county, in
taxes, of over $80,000; they spread
everywhere, to individual and home,
poverty aud misery and are directly
responsible for ten per cent, of our
deaths; they bribe our police officers
and debauch our politics, and more
horrible than all these enumerated
crimes, have so poisoned the moral
sentiment that wc supinely pass from
bad to worse.
And now that the opportunity it giv
en us to say whether or not we shall
continue this condition of affairs, how
shall the majority of our people an
swer?
Will any man who knows the saloon
from personal experience, or has ob
served the frightful effects of drunken
ness in others, hetitate as to how he
will vote?
Will the father, largely r-sponsible
for the future of his boys, hesitate as to
how he will vote?
Will the memory of a mother’s an
guished heart, the tears and misery of a
loving wife, the suffering of many lit
• tie children avail nothing on the 12th
| day of May?
Does the saloon appeal to the better
elements of our nature, to our pride of
country, the love of our fellow man?
Is it superior to our ideas of decency,
the serenity of paace, the blessing of
hapjeuess aud the satisfaction of right
eousness?
Because it has existed from remote
times aud is recognized by law. are we
such slaves to the past that wo must
yield ourselves bodily to sin, shame
aud crime?
Became the saloon is profitable to a
; few must the many suffer?
j Because it is agreeable for some men
| to take a drink of whisky, shall we al
j low drunkenness, gambling, prostitu
j tion, bribery, poverty and death to
j stalk in our midst?
j But tis said, that we decry the evils
* of the saloon without suggestion of a
practical remedy; that local option
does not prohibit tbe use of alcoholic
liquor; that we cannot legislate a peo
ple into righteousness. If this bo true
. why do the saloon interests s bitterly
’ assail local option? If they can sell as
much and at higher prices with local
r option why do they complain? If the
. law never is and cannot be enforced
. wtiv are they afraid of its adoption?
But as a matter of logic and of fact
1 local option does lessen to a great de
gree the existence of drunkenness.
, It does greater than all else, it re
. moves the attraction of the saloon from
a rising generation of men aud women.
. It outlaws both tbe place and keeper,
branding the one as an illegal den, the
other as a criminal- It casts a cloud of
, shame upon tbe “speakeasy” so that
, reputable men will not enter them —and
it virtually breaks up the liquor business
by compelling it to have a concealed
and nomadic existence.
, In a word, it'makes it difficult and
dangeraus to sell to even a few, abol
lishes absolutely the sale to minors,
curtails the associated idleness, gam
bling and prostitution and greater than
all remedies, destroys the saloon as a
political ally and power and public
wrong.
i Local option will not in a day prove
. the panacea for all our material and
social ills. It will not make a barren and
wasted soil, yield an abundant harvest
in a night: it will not alter in a moment
the inclination and character of our
people, but it will prove, in tbe most
modest calculation of its blessing, the
beginning of a new aud better order of
things.
For the victims of intemperance, wc
should not have blame but pity.
We should realize that they are not
to be reformed but through patience
and kindness. We should understand
bow and why they fell. %heir struggle
and suffering and that the best of us are
not exempt from the temptations that
lured them to their fate. We should
likewise appreciate how difficult it is
for them to arise, and extend a helping
hand to aid their ascendingcourse. We
should cheer them on with the jay that
follows their reformation, the swett
peace that comet with sobriety, indus
try and Godliness.
With our minds open to the truth aud
our hearts dedicated to this useful ser
vice to mankind, let us on May the 12th,
eliminate forever the saleon from Prince
George’* County. The duty to our
selves and to society is not to arriagn
the poor victim of intemperance, as an
object of contempt aud ridicule, but to
lessen the temptation that besets his
struggle. In portraying before his eyes
the darkness of his sin, let us likewise
display the beacon-light of hope enkind
ling the heaven of righteousness.
Amid the horror of drunkenness and its
desolation, let there appear the rainbow
of promise, for to the truly penitent,
the storm of sin will subside and the
sunshine of our faith, will make glor
ious the charity of man, the majesty of
God.
