THE SUB-TREASURY BILL. Iu the Atlanta Constitution we find an interesting article from a Georgian Allianceman. It is a substitute for the original bill whicn some constitutional lawyers consider unconstitutional. The Constitution thinks that the Alli ance in Georgia will approve of it and believes that it will solve the great question. Iu the meantime, the Alliance and those of us who are anxious to see more measures pass, looking to the bettering of the conditions of the agricultural and laboring classes, will watch with interest any propo sition that is proposed to benefit those who most need it. If the sub-Treasury bill is unconstitution al, then another measure, contain ing the same principles which all are willing to endorse, will most cer tainly spring up. "When a big class, composed of a lare proportion of our leading agriculturists and labor ers, as constitute lhc Alliance, de mands relief, it is only a question of time until it comes. He that as it niay, we hope every body will read the substitute print ed elsewhere, and The Staxdaud invites a discussion, iu these columns, of the proposed measure. The col umns are open to any man who has yiewa on this subject. i -r Buruw Herald : II. L. Aldeiman killed three turkeys at one slot in Jiij pea field on Moore's creek. AX INTERVIEW WITH I'UOF. 31 A.v'l l.ii Tl'.K ' KO O'EKOCS lOXPITIOX Ol" TIIK rEOi'LE. If any one wishes a few days' r. creation thev cannot find a moiv pleasant place to spend t he tune than around the thriving little village of Flow's and at Sossatnon's minora! spiings. At the time of the invo lution Cabarrus formed a part of Mecklenburg, and some of the he roes of the famous Declaration were citizens of this section. After the lapse of years in which we have been so rapidly developing a groat nation, thev have not lost any of the patriotic blood, but it still Hows in the veins of their descendants. The crops bore are the best the farmers have had in many years. There are two cotton gins in the village, and they both run day and night. AVe can begin to realize what the cotton crop of this section amounts to when we consider that in a radius of two miles there are seven gins in operation and all doing a profitable business. lVsides the agricultural interests this is a great mineral region. Iu the hills are rich deposits of gold, and many people make their living by mining alone. Mr. C. 1. .Muse is' foremost in this occupation, and 1 have it from a man v ho knows that "if all the gold he has found was in one solid piece, it would weigh more than its finder. Silver, sulphur and copper are also found in small quantities. -The forests are very valuable. Since I have been here I have had a chat with weather prophet McAnulty. He told me he was making out the copy for his alma nac, which will be published soon. The Professor is a fanner and be lieves in raising his own supplies. What he cannot raise he ca ches. What I mean by that is, that 1 saw seventeen 'possums which he It ad in boxes and was fattening just as he fattens his hogs. Ho runs a small dairy business which he says is very profitable. He contemplates writ ing a book on " dairying." It has been rainy ever since your correspondent has been here, and he has not been out much. The young men met at Hoger's chapel Sunday night aud organized a Y. M. C. A. Several of the young gentlemen made line speeches, and a nice mem bership was secured. The president called oa the writer for au address, but owing to his timidity he asked to be excused. A good many of the young peo ple are away tit school now, and all of those who are here are members of the Vliiance. which organization is very strong here. They do not say much on polities but they have rights which they intend to s- e re spected. ly the way, the good ohl farmers hae a great big move on thems.-lvcs, and they are lnovin : c.i, too, growing more prosperous a ,oey As soon as the rains are over I hope to find something which will be interesting to th- readers of Tut: StAXPAKP. .1. A Nz.v Suggestion! Touching Treasury Bill. Georgian in Atlanta Constitution.) Now. if it ca i be demonstrated i y discussion that i!l this can be d ie tl. rough a currency issued on the cneat staple crops without earryin!,' the srovernriK v,t into cither lh. warehouse or bankmg busine-:-, J am satisfied the farmers- would promptly accept such a modification of their views, and every productive interest in the whole country cotihl be brought into accord and harmony on the suftjeet. The short ro'.d to this end is for the government to establish at least cic sub-treasury in each State of the Union. It now has sub-treasuries in New York. St. Louift, Chicago, S-n Francisco, ioston, Cincinnati ami iNow urfeans, and to establish them in each State would require bi.t little time, very little increase cf governmental pat ronage, and the mere extension of a system that bus been perfected through years of use. National banks now exist all over the eoun try, and any number can be charter, ed under the general law". If tin se two agencies were brought into close fuel harmonious relation, and the national banks of each State were given a credit with a sub-treasury to be csla dished in each State to an amount equal to the whoi'j or some portion of their fully paid -in capital stock, and the use of the in creased currency they obtained through the sub-treasury was con fined, under proper restrictions, to advances upon the staple crops, an abundant currency, as stable as any in existence, could be brought into use and the rate of interest ou mon ey materially lowered throughout the Union. Any stringency in mon ey from moving crops would be elim inated from the conditions sur rounding commerce, and a health i ul methed of expansion aud con traction in accordance with the vol ume of trade inaugurated. The government would take no part in the business of the country ; it would have no voico in banking or the tixing of credits ; the whole ma chinery of government banking ami commerce would move on just as it dt s now, and the only change would be that the national banks, instead of having to draft on the great money centres of tbo country, would iind ample funds for moving and handling trie great staple crops in tho sub-treasuries established praciicaliy at their doors. As con sumption took place the increase of currency would How back into the Treasury, only to go out agai i as demanded by the exigencies of trade foiced upon the country by its enor mous annual productions. Each S!p te would have one or more finan cial centers, and would be rendered independent of the great financial centers. 1 RACTICAL WORKING Or THE BILL. To better understand the plan, let us contider for a moment its practi cal working. Suppose a sub-treasury was established in Atlanta and in Savannah, and with one or the oth er of these sub-treasuries tho na tional banks of the State had a cred it ecpi.il to their capital stock, and that they could use the currency de rived from this source only for the purpose of advances upon tho great staple crops. Instead of sending to New York for currency, as they are now compelled to do with which to pay for cotton, they would be abb', ou tho very data of security which they now accept, to obtain the cur rency directly from the sub-treasury instead of from their eastern cor? Respondents. There would be no drain fto- this currency upon the fi iiai:eivl etiiieis. Ootlon wouhi movo jm-t us it mow s now, nd when it finally reached the threat markets and was pa d fornu amount of currency rjuivaU'-iifc to that ad . vi ced in Atlanta would How buck ' .'.. some one r other of the sob i :. niios. So conservative aro the i"iirtl banks of the country that it is piobai)io llity e;)iild bo Safely al lowed an increase of cuireney, to be used in handlinf merchandise gen et 'ally, but so delicate is the finan cial "machinery and so easily is it thrown out of gear, that any in crease of currency should bo based only upon s eh great staple articles of merchandise as must bo eon-, sumed within a limit tl perio b To render the rate of interest uniform throughout the country, and thus to properly recti late the value of mon ey, Congrcsp. :m by the Constitution of the United States it is authorized and c'mpowo ed to do, could in con sideration of the additional conces sions made to the ; anks, provide a low and fixed r te of interest. ni t n i(i osr. From the Slanly Observer we learn of the following nairow es cape: Last Tuesday Mrs. Fannie Howell, of this town, with her two little boys were returning from Charlotte in a otu-horse wagon. The streams were much swo'.'-.-n by re cent rains. Arriving at lul!alo creek she made an effort to cross. Keaehing the channel of the stream the w igon bed floated from the wagon and with Mrs. H. and her boys started down the creek. The horse went ashore with the running works. Mr. Thorn Shii.n, who lives near ln with a boat went to tno reseue of Mrs. H. and Iter children and till were safely landed. An Ak"I Wotnnti. In chatting with Mr. J. M. Ma bry, of Forest Hill, a reporter be came interested in some facts about Mr. Mabry's mother. Nothing does us more good than to have the opportunity of throwing a Ibnver into the paths of those who have experienced the trials of. years. Mrs. Mabry is S; years of age, can walk around with perfect ease, and doesn't wear spectacles. She raised fourteen children, all of whom are living and have families. In counting up her children, Ac., this is the result: S7 ' grandchildren : CO greut-grand-childred and o cront-great-grand children. This is life aud health in their ideals.
