Editor : I read the letter in last week's paper by "a voter." I also read your editorials that he wrote about. But I am one who don't "see it" yet. Now I am an alliancemau who believes in getting our reforms through the Democratic party, and I haven't got any more confidence in the politicians and bosses hi the party than you have, and while- I believe that the Bible was right when it said not to put "new wine in old bottles," yet I don't think you represent the meaning of that point of the Bible right. We can get good true men, new men in the Democratic party and put our prin ciples in their hands, and then we put new wine in new bottles. Now tell me whv can't a man elected that way "do us as much good as a man elected in a new party f It is true, it looks bad to see a man like Grady go back on us and do as bad as the old politicians, yet we can next time nominate another man. This is the wav I see it. June 27th.

And if they should get hearted and begin to simply the charter of these bffendiDg of Trade then we will send y Macbeth Caldwell to "screw ourage" up to the sticking We publish the above because it represents the views of a number of good honest men. But we want to say to "Another Voter" that when he talks about putting our princi ples (for he and The Caucasian have the same principles, we only differ in method) in the "hands of a man" and then call that putting nfw wine in new bottles he is all wrong. You can't put your principles in the hands of a man, unless that man is against you. If he has to take your principles in his hands then he has different principles in his heart. And if he has, he is an old bottle and you are putting new wine in it. If a man has any principles in his heart, they are his convictions, they are a part of him. He and his convictions are one and the same. In fact he is the new wine himsel-f. " You can't think of a principle without thinking of same man who represents that prin ciple, who is the personification and embodiment of it. Then if you put such a man in the old party traces, surrounded by all the views of boss rule and the corrupting influences of monopoly, you are putting new wine into old bottles, and you spoil your wine, you violate common sense and the law of the Bible. You turn poor plain B. F. Grady into high flying B. F. Greedy ! But you say that you will now turn down this new edition of plain B. F. Grady and nominate some other and put him in the old party traces. But if you do you will be as bad as Ephraim join ed to his idols. You will simply SDoil another rood man. We think Mr. Grady is above the average man We think his intentions and pur poses were good when he went to congress. But you put him in an old bottle, you put him where he was surrounded by bad influences. You put him where his ideas of honesty and economy were laughed at, in one of the old party caucuses, a place where the slick politicians, the hired tool of monopoly and the influence of the lobbvist predominated. He soon saw that honesty was at a dis count. That to try to do rigtit in that gang was like "darting straws against a north wind," so at the end of two years he got lonely and could not stand their ridicule any longer so be jumped in the boat, floated with the tide and darted straws with the north wind. This made him a royal good fellow with the old party bosses and besides paid him better If Mr. Grady had been elected to congress as a Populist he would not have been subjected to those temp tations, but would have gone to con gress and stood up by noble Tom Watson, and today he would have been the hero of the people of the 3rd congressional district. The po liticians, it is true, would be cursing and abusing hhn, but the people would be standing by him. Do you see it ?

Rich men meet in . the bank, the club house or parlors ; workingmen when they combine, gather in the street. All the organized forces of society are against them. Capital has the army and navy, the legisla tive, judicial and executive depart ments. When the rich combine it is for an "exchange of ideas " When the poor combine it is "conspiracy." If they act in concert, if they really do something, it is a "mob." If they defend themselves it is "treason." In this country the political power is equally divided among men. Why should the rich control? There aie certainly more poor than there are rich. Why should not the laborers combine for the purpose of control ling the executive, legislative and judicial departments f The reason the laborer don't is because he don't know enough and refuses to be taught. Col. Ingersol. This is severe criticism. But read it again, think over it well and then ask yourself the question : Are not the laboring classes responsible, to a great extent, for. this . condition of affairs f They have the power to make themselves felt at: the ballot box, and when they fail to unite for self-protection, they deserve to be criticised, and if they don't deserve to suffer they certainly will suffer, and it is their own fault. , DONT let a day pass without trying to get a new subscriber for The Caucasian, Washington, June 30th. It has just taken history just 20 years, al most to an hour, to repeat itself. The "Back Salary Grab" that made the 42nd Congress infamous was en acted on the nijrht of March 3rd 873. The Democratic "salary grab" that will consign its authors and beneficiencies to obscurity was en acted at midnight March 3rd 1893. The 42nd Congress was' overwhelm ingly Republican. The 52nd Cod- gress which died only a few months was overwhelmingly Dem ocratic. Then it ' was a Renub- ican raid on the treasury, now it is a Democratic raid. The Republican raid was made in the broad daylight the Democratic raid at the dead hour of midnight. The country had notice of the one, but the other was "a virtual steal." The one was debated and considered in conference for days and days, the other was passed under the whip and spur of a gag rule without debate, without consideration. The one was an attempt to increase the salaries of all government officials the oth er operates to the exclusive benefit of members of Congress. Then, as now, when the voice of protest was raised in behalf of the people it was laughed to scorn. Senator Edmunds said the enact ment of such legislation would make the Republican party infamous. Sen ator Farnsw.orth said that it put to shame the monstrous Credit Mobe- lier scheme. It passed the Senate March 3rd 1873 by 36 yeas to 27 nays. Both Senators from North Carolina Ransom and Pool voted aye. It passed the House by 102 yeas, 9G nays, 42 not voting. Cobb, Thomas, Waddell, Leach and Har per from North Carolina voted aye; Shober is recorded as not yoting. Waddell, I believe, afterwards de clined to receive the increased sal ary. Leach and the others named did receive it and went into igno minious oblivion. Will history re peat itself again f That there may be no dispute over the fact, I have copied the resolution adopted by an oyerwhelming Democratic vote ir the last Congress. It reads as fol lows: "Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress as sembled, That on and after April first, eighteen hundred and ninety three, each Member and Delegate of the House of Representatives of the United States may, on the first day of every month during sessions of Congress certify to the Clerk of the House of Representatives the amount which he has paid or agreed to pay for clerk hire necessarilly employed by him in the discharge of his offi cial and representative duties dur ing the previous month, and the amount so certified shall be paid by the Clerk out of the contingent fund of the House on the fourth day of each month to the person or persons named in each of said certificates so filed: Provided, That the amount so certified and paid for clerical serv ices rendered to each Member and Delegate shall not exceed one hun dred dollars for any month during the session: And provided further, That the provisions of this resolu tion shall not apply to members who are chairinen of committees entitled under the rules to a clerk Approved, March 3, 1893." I now quote from the protest made by the minority of the committee that reported the resolution: A PROTEST. "The minority, aftefcr careful con sideration, feel constrained to dis sent from the report recommend ing the adoption of the resolut.on The immediate effect or the reso lution is to add more than three hundred officials to the present enor mous'roll, and to fix upon the Treas ury a charge exceeding $600,000 during each Congress, which must continue indefinitely. The second ary result, though none the less in evitable, will be to entail upon the people and expenditure to provioe and furnish more than three hun dred offices in which these clerk's can transact the private business of the Representatives. There is no space in the Capitol that can be set apart for this purpose, and the cost of erecting or renting will amount to several millions. "The incoming administration and a large majority of the r lfty-third Conerress are pledged to the most rigid economy in public expend iture, and in view of the depleted Treasury and the declaration ot a large body which is the sole bene ficiary of this appropriation, tne mi nority is of the opinion tfeat such action cannot be justinea or exeusea at this time. The necessity for such clerical assistance as this resolution contemplates is not a new condition It has existed for a long time.

That ia but the iDntrtituent made by law to tneaa uro tho value, jiut ai .'Mi inehea ia by law made a yard. Money rervea aa a medium of exchange j:it an a cart serves to convey ptodiietto market. Money ia the legal re pre actitMti vc of wealth. The real wealth ia tho capacity to produce unmet hing, hence the wealth of a nntiou i laud rtirl man. Now, I maintain, that a laud ia the basis of all our wealth, progreaa and prosperity, whenevt-r it ia di crinatcd againtt by tho money lead ir then progress and development will Ik retarded. Therefore wo will change our present banking aya teiu, and make laud thw real basiw of our wealth and not U. S. lninda, which they derive their necurity from land. L-jttho government t-stabliah theo banks in all parts of the country, and loan money to land owners at half tho value of their land, at '1 per cent, interest per annum. If these banks were entablisbed there would bo an immediate enhancement of the value of t eal estate, and the sun of prosperity would shine iu all parts of this great country. The recent failures of our Nation al bnnks have demonstrated the ut ter inefficiency of the system, (iov ernment hanks, with money issued to the people on land and its non perishable products, i what wo need. People are afraid to receive checks drawn on many of our banks, for the reason that they may fail before the check can reach its destination and be cashed. Are the people afraid, ot unwilling to receive a poiitoflice order issued by Uncle Kara! No! Then thia forcibly proves the ability of the government to issue its own money. The people have faith in the government, but they are last losing it in our present banking sys tem. No money should be issued by any corporation whatever, whether it be private individuals or by Mate. The government only tdiould iasuo aioney. What we-need to-day is to return to the system as advocated by Jef ferson and Jacks'jti the latter of whom said: "If Congress has tho right under the Constitution to issue paper mou ty, it was given thm to 1e used by themselves, tot to be delcg.tbd to individuals or corporations " Hear what Jeffiitaon aid: "I believe banking institution ar niore dangerous to our liberties than landing armies. Already they have raised up a money aristracy that has set the government at de fiance. The issuing power should be taken from th banks, and re stored to the government and the people, to whom it belongs. L t the banks exist, but let them bank on coin or treasury note." The tendency in this country is to concentrate the wealth in the hands of the few, and unless this is changed, our liberities will not long eadure. James B.
