The evils under which jhey suf fer, and which threaten the destruction of the republic aud its institutions, are national in their character and cannot be corrected by sectional reme dies. Hence, recognizing but one ti ig the 11 ig of our dommon Country impelled by a common purpose, actu ated by a common motive, confronted by a common danger, they have sol emnly resolved to turn their .backs up hii the past and make orw mighty ef fort to rescue our government and in stitutions from impending peril.

The proud Saxon spirit, and con rag and patriotism, which crowned the he roism of the "blue and t he gray' with undwng fame, are now summo.ned to break the galling and degrad'ng chains of white slavery of honest labor and how fining that fhey -should lead in this glorious struggle for God and hu manity.

The Chronicle sars; "The sub treasury' hits been iirionsly discussed but it wiU take both silence nd discus sion to kill it." I dtfhy that it has been 'various! jM discftssed.hy partisan jour nalists atid politiclajis. All reference made to that measure has been char acterized by two peculiarities. First assailing the machinery rather than the spirit of the bill. Second, a desire "with malice a forethought,'' as the lawyers say, to misrepresent it, and prejudice mindsj: against it. The so called discussions When boiled down, resolved themselves into mere assertion, such as crude, lidicalous, impractical; unconstitutional, Ndw, we thiuk a mere assertion a pocij-.sort wf theory en dorsed by the representatives of three million farmers, besides other labor unions. 1 have seen the purest virture and noblest manhood clad ia humblest garb, and I have seen the foolish sneer and muck, whilst wise men recognizing the nobility within have paid reverence and honor. Within the "crude" and "absurd" habiiiments of the sub-treasury lies a soul, a principle, an idea. That idea is, an ample currency issued direct to the people at a low rate of in terest. Now, Mr. Editor, when you reflect that our government by transmitting its currency though a class of wealthy middle men to levy a tribute upon the industries of the country of over two million dollars, and when yoa reflect i that the farmers of this country have j fallen behind in the race for 'wealth, ! about twenty-five billion dollars, it is strange that the great heart of the debt-burdened, toil-worn fanning juil ' lions hwuldTrespond with a bounuV to . a measure formulated to give them protection against injurious tribute, and ii fair chance in the race for wealth and all the concomitant comforts and refinements? Isiyitis not strange, ' nor is it sjtr inge they should revolt at ! the treatment the measure has recieved ! at the hands of their niisrepresenta tives in Congress. Nor is it strange ' that they say to those self-eonstituted judges of our wants, ;nd necessities, "if our measure is crude or uncousli tional, we are paving 335 representa tives and 82 senator-, many of whom le u ned in the law to correct its crude ness. The Chronicle says it will take both discussion and silence to kill it. The editor must have; taken his crude ideas from our m embers of Congress. Those who did not in-et the bill with sneers used the we.ip hi of "silence," and I be lieve the producers resent tke treatment as much as t lit other. As for myself 1 pre'e.- rtie ou-pokeii antagonism of an Ingalls or a Gordou, to t lie dissim ulation of others.

Steel, in Mecklenb irg Times. SuL-Trcasury Bill Gives Money at the lliglit Time. These unfavorable conditions, con tinued through a long service of years, haTe reduced the producer to a neces sity of marketing his products at the earliest possible moment to meet ma tured obligations and provide for the j 2 necessities of the family. As a result of this the entire product of the sea son is thrown upon the market practi cally at one time and passes into the hands of speculators, who invariably reap the profits that legitimately be long ta the producer. The system of gambling that has. fostered and devel oped under these conditions is destruc tive to the interests of the producer una consumer aii;e. The sub -treasury bill provides an ef fectual remedy Jor these evils in detail.

It takes the world s fowl suppl' and . all the product of ag riculture out of the hands of thieves and gamblers, and brings producer and consumer into much nearer rela tions than at present to the vast profit and benefit of each. It. increases the volume of money to the legitimate re-, quirements of trade, and secures its is sue directly from the government to the people, requiring no tribute to mo nopolistic corporations to get it in cir culation. It gives to the currency the property of elasticity by providing for the cancelation and destruction of "all money advanced by the govern ment against such farm products." By these provisions a uniformity of values would be maintained and speculations at the expense of both producer and consumer would be at an end. The government would resume its legiti mate constitutional function of creat ing and issuing the - currency of the nation, which function, the best con stitutional authorities, both past and present, declare that it cannot lawful ly delegate either to individuals or cor porations. The sub-treasury plan does, there fore, embrace the elements necessary to remedy existing evils. This is the first point to establish in its behalf. Objections have been urged against it. We freely admit that if these objec tions are valid it is our dntv as reason onable people to be honest with -ourselves and with the country and aban don the advocacy of the measure. It develops upon its opponents to show their validity. In considering some of those that have been urged against it we find them to be among the strong est reasons in its favor when the facts are properly understood and applied. Topeka Kan.
