cent I of Jpriginal 'capital, he failed
4- .ei2, years ago for $6,000,000, leaving
hundreds. of touring Americans

At th tme of the Napoleonic inva
ion the great "Redshield" had built
lip a !local irepitatipn as a' financier,
and had ' lready established his son,
Nathan May er Anselum, in London, for
these;f wer 'unsettled times, and the
prudence df the man discovered the
necessity of having a place to fly to if
occasion required.
Wbf n the news of. Napoleon's coming
reached Frankfort, Ihe elector of Hesse
placed 15,0l 0,000 francs in the custody
of the elde k Rothschild for eafe keep
ing. This sum -was sent to his son
Nathan in England. Napoleon heard
of . it ahd jtried' in every way to induce
the banker to give it up.
' A commission went, to his establish

was talk of putting him under arrest.
Napolehn did not quite care to venture
Isuch an act of violence, and an effort

ipromise of gain. They proposed to him
ito leave himfhalf of the treasure if he
! would de'.ivej- the other half to the
jFrench offlpfals. They promised him
!a receipt In fnll, accompanied by a cer
tiflcate! proving that he had yielded
'pnly to force and that he was blameless
'for the seizure of the entire ' amount.
But. the backer had already decided
Sthat all truits were sacred, "and re-.

Wealthy marriages has also been part
of the creed of the family. In 1806 pie
son who had settled in London married
the i daughter of a rich banker, Levi
Barnet Cohen. .
This Nathan Rothschild was on the
battlefield of Waterloo and by a won
derfully quick trip reached London be
fore thereal news had been received
by the government. He was on the
staff of Wellington, and the minute -he
saw the defeat of Napoleon was certaiiu
he rode at breakneck speed to Ostehd,
crossed the channel at the risk of his
life, and was on the stock exchange
next morning.' -At that time England
only, knew of the first part oj the bat
t!e, when it seemed that Napoleon w3
again destined to conquer. Rothschild's
gloomy air and the adroit rumors piit
lh . circulation argued the worst for
Engiand. The prices of securities fell
at a terrific rate. At the proper tinie
Rothschild put his agents at work buy
ing everything In sight. Later came
the news of Wellington's victory.
Rothschild fa said to have cleared $6,
000,000 by. this' shady trick.
Bismarck has been forced to bow to
the moneyed power of this family. In
1866 the Prussian government demand
ed an indemnity of $25,000,000 from the
city of Frankfort. The Rothschilds
sent word to Bismarck that if any at
tempt was made to enforce the levy,
they would break every bank in Ber
lin. This was .no. idle threat, as Bis
marck well knew;' and he succumbed to
the inevitable! I;
Baron Alphonse de Rothschild, to
whom the infernal machine was re
cently sent, is the head of the Pari!
bank. He has, like all the Jew usur
era, strong ideas on the labor question
and has made many enemies in conse
quence. Three years ago he expressed
these views en the labor problem:
"I do not believe; in the so-called
labor movement. " I am confidant that
the workingmen are satisfied with their
condition and have neither cause nor.
desire to complain. They are, I am
convinced, indifferent to progress.. To
be sure, some agitators make plenty of
noise, but that amounts to nothing:
they do not influence the honest and
reasonable workingman.
"In considering the so-called labor
movement it is necessary, however, to
41stlnguilh sharply good from bad
workmen. Only the idle good-for-nothings
desire" the eight-hour day. Seri
ous men, fathers of families, work as
long as they think necessary for their
m Rj-iretr cRiiafen'"sneed3. There
is much loose talking nowadays about
the danger, of so much capital in the
hands of 'a few men.. This is all rub
bish. Some men are richer; others are
poorer. Ills the money which circu
lates which fructifies.,
"Frighten and threaten capital and it
vanishes (because we can make it van
ish, see!) Capital is like water. Grasp
It violently and it slips through your
fingers; "treat it gently, dig a canal
(bonds) in which to lead it and it runs
wherever you will. Capital is a coun
try's fortune. It represents the energy,
intelligence, thrift and labor of the
people. Capital is labor. Apart from
unhappy exceptions, which seem to be
unavoidable, each shares in the peo
ple's capital according to his intellir
gence, energy and work accomplished
(a,nd Interest absorbs -it all if you know
how to work the scheme and the
Rothschilds do). If a workman be dis
contented with his share he may strike
(and get shot down by the military, as
they did at Homestead and Pullman).
"It is unjust to compare a mannvith
capital- and intelligence, organizing
faculties, invention and knowledge with
any gross, brutal workman, who applies
to his work only the intelligent work
of his hands." -
These views were not pleasant to the
excitable masses of Paris. Perhaps the
infernal machine was an echo of them.
Of the-ele?en barons, Nathaniel, Al
fred and Leopold are located in Lou
don; Alphonse, Gustav, Edward, Adolph
and James in Paris; Nathaniel in Vien
na and William in sFrankfort. The
New York Belmdnts are the agents in
the United States.
Some idea of their riches can be had
from the fact that since 1815 they have
raised for Great Britain alone inoH
than $1,000,000,000; for Austria, $250,
000,000; for Prussia, $200,000,000; for
France, $400,000,000; for Italy, nearly
$300,0000,000; for Russia, ,$125,000,000;
for Brazil, from $60,000,000 to $70,000,
000; and they took through the Bel
mont syndicate $150,000,000 of the issues
of United States bonds issued by Cleve
land and Carlisle.
. To be'-plain, the Rothschild! gold1
octopus is today ruler of the universe
and their gold commands the armies
and navies of the world.
If, peace, happiness and prosperity
ever come back to the petople of the
world it will be when the power of the
Rothschilds has been wiped from, the
face of the earth and neyer before
for today the net proceeds of all the
products of the world, measured by
Rothschilds' standard, do not amount to
enough in dollars and cents to pay the
interest on the, debts these Jew bankers
hold aver the nations of the- earth.
Government costs money and so does

with food. Etery year the world rims

For centuries Christians have perse

Without guns and through the silent
power of usury alone the Rothschilds

If the people quietly stand the impo

PUBLIC OWNEESHD?.
A
POPULAR OBJECTION VERY
CLEARLY ANSWERED.
Would Have a Tendency to Take Iol-
; ltici out
of the Public CiTil Service
Rather Than to Increase Partisan
Power of the Officeholders.
1 The, movement for public control and
ownership of natural monopolies seems
to be gathering force everywhere.
Whether representatives of radical or
conservative thought be in power they
seem to be forced, Almost as of neces
sity, into a further and further exten
sion of the power of government over
matters heretofore left largely tp the
management of individuals. This tend
ency receives a fresh Illustration in
proposals ju3t made by the new Con
servative government in England,
t$rouh its colonial secretary, Mr.
Joseph Chamberlain.
HWith the advent of the Conservative
pjarty to power in England one might i
niturdlly look for a sharp reactioi,
from ihe alleged socialistic tendencies
of the long Liberal reign. We might
epecti immediate cessation of efforts
t ;apply the principles of the factory
afts, a quiet slumbering of the eight
hiur movement, and, above all, no fur
tier demands for the application .of
i tpt piUnaiplsa of public ownership to
tie transportation, lighting, and kin
dred monopolies. But lo! here comes
'Chamberlain, colonial secretary of an
aflged reactionary government, in a
speech which is described as the "one
speech of the week, that will be remem
bered,'? ' asking the imperial govern
mnt of England to go into the busi
ness of railroad building in tropical
Africa,' for the development of English
colonial interests located there. "If
railways are needed in tropical Africa
they should be built under colonial or
imperial administration rather than be
handed over to private speculators,"
th secretary is reported as saying. He
further; declared that many of the Brit
ish! colonies are in the condition of un
developed estates, which could be de
veloped; only "by a judicious invest
ment ofj imperial money."
This demand of the Conservative En
glish secretary contains the very meat
an 4. kernel of the demand for public
ownership of natural monopolies iu
this country. An extension of the pow
er pf the whole people through gov
ernnent, when necessary to bring
about results demanded by the public
good. Lender such a demand may be in
cjued the movement in the United
Stafes fOr government railroads, a post
al t;egraph, and municipal ownership
ol gas, jwater and electric-light works
andviStreet railroads.
. Oh' another page Mr. Edward Rose
water, of the Omaha Bee, who has
made a jcareful study of the results of
.public ownership of natural monopolies
inf England and other European coun
tries, answers what seems to us to be
onefbf the main popular objections to
the rapidly growing movement for pub-
lid Ownership of national monopolies
th possible danger of increasing
power oi the office-holding class. Mr.
Rosewater is arguing for a postal tele
graph, and say 3:
VOno great objection against the pos
tal; telegraph in this country id that it
would biding Into operation more politi
cal offices. I regard this as one of the
most, important and beneficial features
of the whole affair. It would be an en
tering wedge for the greatest possible
success Of the civil service. It would
brin; into the postal service from 25,
000 p 30,000 skilled operatives whose
services Scould not be dispensed with.
Thfese wOuld naturally be divided into
various politics, as every other class
of citizens, whose trustworthiness and
value! would be Increased by the knowl
edge fthai they could not be displaced
by fajjy political partisan. This has
beeli f thei experience in Great Britain
and it would be the same here. Once
getltie postal service under govern
ment ;control and the civil service act,
andjybu would soon be able to place all
departments of the government under
the ;sme system, and a large share of
the ipfbltt nuisance Incident to office
holding would be done away with, leav
ing the officers free to Inquire into and
learn their duties to their office and to
the public."
We -are inclined to agree with Mr.
Rosewater that this increase.1 of so
called office-holders resulting ,froni in
crease public ownership of natural
monopolies would, as he intimates,
tend if take politics out of the public
civil service, rather than tof Increase
the partisan power of the office-holding
class. I As- the' railroads, telegraph,
lighting, and other monopolies came
under public control the people would
naturally see more and more clearly
tne necessity or naving SKiiiea men in
charjfUnsUad of mere partisans. They

would demand that a man's "politics"!
be the last "thing to be considered id
deciding his fitness for the, position of;
engineer on the public railroad or!
manager of the public lighting plant,;
Thus, might we not conclude that the
ownership would result in educating!
the public to demand that all depart-f
ments of government should be brought!
under more strict clvil-service-reforml
rules? The Voice. -
ARE WE FISHWORMS?
Vhat Has Become of Our National
Backbone?
"There can be no doubt about it that;
if the United States were to adopt al.
silver basis tomorrow British trade
would be ruined before the year Is out.j
Every American industry would be pro
tected, net only at home but in every
other market. Of course the states
would suffer to a certain extent vhrough
having to pay their obligations abroad
in gold, but the loss in exchange under
this head would be a mere drop in the
bucket compared with the profits to be
reaped from the markets of South
Yrnerica and Asia, to say nothing of
inrope. The marvel fs that the United
States has not long ago seized the op
portunity; but for the necessity in the
vay of commercial success and pros
perity, undoubtedly it would have been
lone long pgo."
The above is from the.. London Finan-
jiai Ne-s. one of the highest financial
iiithorities in th3 world.
Does it not seem strange remark
ably strange that in the light of these
frequent admissions on the part of Brit
ish journals and statesmen as to the
advantages that accrue to Great Britain
by reason of our financial policy, saying
nothing of the object lessons constant
ly presented to us here at home, that
we will go on year after year on lines
of policy that are eo injurious to our
own interests and of such great ad
vantage to our English neighbors?
Why will not the American people
arise? Have we become a nation of
chumps? Has statesmanship in this
country gone to seed? Are patriotism
and national pride dying out? Have
we none of the spirit that animated our
forefathers? What has become of our
national backbone?
English statesmanship and' the vor
acious greed of her financiers has, after
a third of a century of intrigue and
cunning designs, succeeded, through
the most damnable conspiracy ever
sprung upon a free people, in reducing
the American republic to what is prac
tically a British dependency by arti
fice and cunning' scheming have our
people been reduced to a condition in
finitely worse than that against which
cur forefathers rebelled accomplished
through intrigues with our modern
Benedict Arnolds what she failed to-accomplish
by force of arms on two sev
eral occasions, bringing us prostrate' at
the feet of British greed and avarice.
How much longer will our patience
endure?; When will the American peo
ple arouse and shake off this accursed
yoke of oppression? Oh. for men
strong men. men of hearts, of courage
who dare to think and to act, and who
are not given over wholly to" the god
of mammon.
May the God of nation- arouse our
people to a sense of the wrongs inflict
ed upon them, of a sense of the degra
dation to which we are descending by
reason of the poverty and distress
of the masses, and prompt them
to exercise an intelligent use of the
power of the ballot placed in their
hands, that greater dangers may be
averted.
A PATRIOT RESIGNS.
ConalUera the MilttU a Constant Menace
to Peace.
A few days ago Colonel Edgar How
ard, of the Nebraska state militia,
handed Governor Holcomb his resig
nation, and said: "I am opposed to the
state militia, root and branch." I re
gard it as a constant menace rather
than an aid to the public peace. The
state soldiery throughout the" Union
has been organized always at the be
hest, and often at the dictation, of cor
porate capital,"" which asks that the
state plunge its "bayonets into the
breast of organized labor in order to
enforce . compliance with - organized
capital's demands." . Here is an ac
knowledgment from a military man
that is truly significant, and substan
tiate3 the charges of labor papers and
agitators. There is no question but
that, it is dawning upon conscientious
militiamen that they are being made
tools of to overawe and browbeat nat
urally peaceful citizens in the interest
of a selfish class. Governor Holcomb,
in accepting Colonel Howard's resig
nation, declared thatjie respected such
sentiments. Populists, as a rule, have
little use for the -wastetf"! militia.

DIRECT LAW-MAKING.
NIT! ATI VE "AND REFERENDUM,
GREATEST OF REFORMS.
Btrodace This 'System and Strike at
the Roots of Party Tyranny, and Stop
Extravagance, Cupidity and Political
Bribery;
The initiative and referendum form
f government which is being agitated
from ohe;ocean to the other, and adopt
;d by a great many labor organizations
s becoming more and more popular
?very day, and means that the people
3hall rule and settle all questions, na
tional, state and county. The U. M. B.
Press, of Tacoma, Wash,, says, the
form of the initiative and referendum,
as proposed and formulated by the "Di
rect Legislation League," as an amend
ment to ihe constitution of any state
and which might be used, is given a3
follows; ;
1. The tight to approve or reject pro
posed state laws shall rest with a ma
jority of the citizens of the state. The
right to approve or reject the proposed
law of political subdivision of the state,
such as county, city, town, township,
borough or village, shall rest with the
majority of the citizens of such subdi
vision. The method of such approval
or rejection shall be that known as the
referendum. ;
2. The right to propose laws of the
: state shall (in addition to being ex
ercised by; members of the senate and
the house of assembly.) rest with any
proportion of the citizens of the state,
between 5 and 25 per cent, which may
be determined by statute law. The
right to propose laws of any political
sub-division pf that state (such as coun
ty, city, town, township, borough, or
Village) shall, (in addition to being ex
ercised by members of its legislative
ody as at present,) rest with any pro
portion of tts citizens, between 5. and
?5 per cen which may be determined
by a law of such political sub-division.
The method to be employed In so pro
posing measures shall be known as the
Initiative. ;
The operation of the initiative is
mandatory,! but regulated by constitu
tional provisions.
1 The referendum acts as constitu
tional limitktion of legislative and ex
ecutive power; and by virtue of this
power proposed legislation by ths peo
ple's representatives is referred back
tp them fof indorsement or rejection
under the operation of legal provisions.
' Of all the reforms in our political
machinery thi3 surely Is the best and
foremost in Its ameliorating and re
forming ppwer. It Is an effective
means of removing the whole train of
social and political evils that burden
the people, and would do much to re
store to them their long lost rights.
i The introduction, then, of the initia
tive and referendum into our political
system would be a great and beneficial
reform. It is admitted that it is our
duty to obey the laws, but that duty
implies another duty embodied in the
right to approve or reject the lay.s
that we mufet obey, both before and
after legislation, if necessary, and the
ultimate ratification should rest with
the clear majority of all the voters
of the nation, state or ether sub-diyis-lohs
of these.
Introduce this system and fctriko ut
the roots of party tyrouny, and stop ex
travagance, cupidity and political rob
bery and lay an ax of economy to the
very roots of scheming corruption.
j in 1S93 the city of Haverhill, Ma:?.,
by a unanimous vote adopted direct
legislation through the Initiative and
referendum; secured by the persistence
an rl take-no-denlal attitude of the
I workingmen, ; demanding justice and
fair play as supreme qualities that
should distinguish the legislative and
executive power or then- public serv-
ah.U. By the adoption of this one prin
ciple they secured a common gromi'l
in Regard to all abuses, 'monopolies and
alcbmmon plank upon which all reform
parties can stand. '
; i nis grand tneory ot political ma- i
ichinery and of sovereign power in the j
;hscds of the people, wherein it has had
'practical operation, has proven In two
hemispheres a most thorough and
(peaceful revolutionary Institution. As
'regards the initiative, it has been used
jiii bur own country since before ltn ex
istence as a nation.
j In Belgium, 1892, through the use of
jthe referendum, the law of suffrage
Uas completely changed for the better.
Before that year the suffrage was re
stricted to 140,000 vote3. By the use
)f the referendum the people forced
he enactment of a reformed law in
creasing it to l,000,00u, an Increase of
he; suffrage to over seven times the
previous franchise.
3 All this was accomplished because
4 private canvass proved the truth of
thei fact that the whole people were
clamorous for it; and by their uncom
promising attitude they dominated the
senate, the aristocracy, the army, the
tSime-servlng legal lights and royalty
iself. The sovereign will of the peo
ple,. Interpreted by its vote, overcame
every obstacle in a country hereto the
is :erie of riot, bloodshed and tumultu
ois agitation. :
But the existence of thic powerful
agency does notmean that any aud ail
n easures that seek legislation must be
fc ibmltted to a vote of the people, but
its does mean that the power exists, and
that when thei people wish to do so
they, can demand a popular vote on any
measure that they consider likely to bo
h irtful, if it should becme statutory.

The above are the words of 'Senator

given at Bridgeport, Conn.
Shades of the departed! Only give

aided them In every species of vicious
legislation suggested.
During the thirty years of republican
control the curse of monopolistic rule
was fastened upon the country. Trusts
and combines have grown up and flour
ished as never before in the history
of any nation; class legislation has
been the rule, and so deeply is plutoc

men are free to predict revolution at
a means of freeing the people.
The causes that have brought the
country to where It is today chief of
which is the present financial policy
originated with the republican party,
which was aided and abetted by the
democratic party.
The present democratic administra
tion has not deviated one iota from
the policy of its republican predeces
sors, and yetr we are now told that if
the republicans are given another
chance they will bring prospeity to the
county.
Why didn't they do it" when they had
a chance of thirty yearsV duration?
Senator Frye asks for a decade only
wants ten years to undo what it took
thirty years to build up. That's too"
long. Give the populists control of this
government and they will cleanse the
Augean stables in les3 than one year,
and bring relief to the people inside of
sixty days after congress convenes.
The republican party and the dem
ocatic party have both been weighed
in the balance , and found wanting.
Democracy Is dead and republicanism
will soon follow. There will be no
more chances for either one of these
old parties, as the people are too thor
oughly aroused to place any confidence
in them. Their records of venality and
hypocrisy are bo black and damnable
that they cannot longer deceive the
people.
LETTING OUT THE CAT.
The Main Object Is to Curry British
Favor.
The practice of letting the cat out
of the bag is one more honored In the
breach than in the observance. For
all that, it is almost an Involuntary
process. A subsidized Wall street or
gan printed this sentence last week:
"The .victory, id Ohio of the sound
money men will do more to reassure
nervous people than anything. Eng
land is awaking io the fact that the
Uniy'ii State? are on a sound money
bais. and once again there is a good
inquiry, not only for United States
government bonds, but likewise for our
railroad securities."
It seems then, that our state cam
paigns this year are being carried on
with a wary eye to Lombard street and
the Rothschilds. The fact that thera
j js a good demand for our railroad se-
i curitifs is a ?ood" thing for the rail
roads, aud since that demand depends
entirely upon our thralldom in gold
monometallism, the railroad power is
all against silver. As a further proof
I of this consider last week's announce
ment of the Monetary Trust:
"It maj be the skeptical British mind
will realize that silver lunacy in the
United States has lost Its lustre, and
that this country, after all,. is the best
place for British money. It may be the
large professional operators of London,
who are now relatively rich from gold
speculation, will conclude to cover their
short eale3 and save a part of their
money."
Here is Wall street's official utter
ance upon the ethics and economics of
the monetary question. There are
many ways of letting the cat out of the
bag, and Wall street appears to be
master of them ail. Twentieth Cen

Silrer Too Hevy.
How the bankers are squirming
about' silver. They are alarmed at the
prospect. That twenty-five million
dollars annually stolen from depositors
would weigh seven hunded and fifty
tons if It was all in silver. Just think
of it. If all taken at once would re
quire 12.000 cashiers to carry It. would
make a procession eleven miles long.
Every man loaded down with over a
hundred and twenty pounds of silver.
Some of them like as any would get
caught, too. carrying such a load as
that. Chicago Expres?.

THE OCTOBER BULLETIN'
Shows How The-Farmers Are BeCia
ulng to Make a Profit on-ThHr
Products.
The October bulletin of the Agri,
cultural Department just issued ears:
that when the otietioa card was sent
out it was supposed the drought theu
prevailing was the only - element of
danger to be apprehended.- Enquirv
was made in respect to thi. but tLf'
very-early past couUjl not be foreseen,
from which greater loss reenlteil iu
some sections than from the drought.
Previous reports indicated an sbnn
dauce of vegetables' and breadstuflV
It ; was desired to ascertain what wag
the outlook for the meat supply and
what progress farmers were making
towards improving Hbe quality and
condition of their meat-producing
btock. Commissioner Patterson is s-
deeply impressed with the necessity
of North Cavolina farmers raising
their own bread and meat and is so
thoroughly convinced that it is the jes--fential
policy on which their perma
nent prosperity must be based, that
the answers to the question are paitio
ularly gratifying.
A decided majority of the answeri
received show increase of number and
improvement of both hogs and cattle,
nncl 95 per cent, say that there is
decided tendency of the farmers to
raise more of their own meat Supplies
pud to improve the grade of both cat
tle and hogs. A large" proportion aa
Kigh the stock law as the cause of this '.
improvement in cattle and hogs. An
swers to questions of injury by drought
to certain crops and information pf
damage by the subsequent fronts, givr '
en by many correspondents, relate to
portions of the State only, where the
crops were uot fnlly matured. It is
difficult, therefore to calculate the ef
fect on the condition of each crop for
the iState at large, but from the best
information it is believed th-it cotton
is more than 63 per cent, of an aver
age crop iRj'd it may fall lower. Corn
must recede a few points from its Sep
tember condition; the increased acre- '
age" of course remaining the same as in
September report. The late Irish po
tato crop suffered badly and reports
indicate but little over half a crop.
Tobacco in the eastern counties was
nearly all housed, bnt in the middle
ud western counties the frost did
inrtchdamage; how much it is impossi-
ble nOwto estimate.
The meauNovmber temperaliire j. .
50 degrees. -The warmest Novemln-r
was that of 1890 54 degrees; the cold- .
tst that of 188747 degrees. The
highest recorded temperature for the
month was 80 degrees; the lowest 17.
The average date on which, the first
killingfrost occurs here is Oct. 2b. From
tnia it will bo seen how phenomenally
eurly were the. severe frosts thin
autumn. November is not rainy
month, for in one year only six-hun-dreths
of an inch fell during its 30
days.
