Ex-Senator Norwood Offers a Sub3ti t ute for the Sub-Treasury Bill. He Proposes tho Creation of a Eillion and a Half of Paper Money to b9 Distributed to the States and Loaned to the Citizens. Thomas M. Norwood, Ex-United States Senator of Georgia, by invitation of the Legislature of that State to ad dress them on the Alliance sub-treasury plan, spoke at Atlanta a few days ago on the general question of the finances and currency of the United States. He ad vanced n plan of bunking that is new. He contends that the accelerated accumu lation of capital in a few Eastern States and in the hands of a few persons is de structive to th-j West and South, and will finally destroy the Eastern States. It produces congestion in one part of our political body and paralysis in the other parts. His plan is in brief, for Congress to direct its Sec-rstiry of the Treasury to prepare a sufficient number of legal ten der notes of convenient denominations) which, added to the existing currency, will give thirty, forty, or fifty dol lars per capita. These notc-3 are to be re ceivable for all debts and dues except du ties on imports. They are to be redeemed by tin United States Government on pre sentation at the treasury or at sub-treasuries established at convenient cities. Tiie treasurer shall hold at least 2 per cent, of the isuc in coin, gold and silver, to redeem the notes, that being enough and as much as banks now hold for re demption purposes. The percentage of coin, however, can bo regulated by ex perience lie proposes to readjust and measurably ccptliy.e the circulation of the currency m this way: Each State on demand shall receive of legal tenders fin amount which added to ita oxistiog cir culation will make the amount per capita decided on by Congress. The banking capital in each State is to be the standard for ascertaining its circulation, unless a better can l3 "devised. To illustrate: Georgia's population in round numbers is V '00,000. the amount per capita lixed by Congress for the whole population being 40, Georgia would be entitled to eighty million dollars, but her present banking capital being thirty millions, that sum must be deducted and hertpiota of legal tendeis would be fifty millions. The ratable amount of circulation he pro poses j-hall be used by each State accord ing as the people of the State shall de termine. That is, it may be used in banking or be let by the State acting through a bureau of finance to individ uals on such securities as a prudent bank now takes for loans. His plan is for each .-'tale to hold a percentage of this cur rency t nr. et squeezes and scoops by Wall .'itr. et, and to foster bankiug with part and lend the remainder to individ uals and corporation; that each Slate shall lix by law a icasonable rate of inter est, nor. above per cent , and by law name the securities on which the bureau of tiumce shall lend, the percentage of value to be lent and time; that land shall he one of the securities, and that each State shall lend on its own products. For instance. Georgia's great product being cotton, it should be sec urity or col latteial under proper and safe conditions; wheat and corn being the chief products of Kansas, Iowa, etc., they should lend on these products Norwood contends that when money can draw to itself per cent, by going into manufacturers, mining, etc., it will go there, and thus alt the natural resources of the State will be dew loped and its wealth increased to the benefit of every citizen, whereas banking produces no wealth and benefits only the few who receive the dividends. Norwood took Georgia and Kansas to il lustrate what can bo done under his fi nancial system. He proposes that each State should set aside not less than 10 per cent, of the legal tenders to pro tect its own citizens against financial crises and squeezes. Ceoigia could in crease her banking capital $10,000,000 ami lend $:iO,000,0o0 on long time, in terest payable semi-annually to individ ual s and eorpor. lions who have valuable mines to be developed and who desire to build cotton factories, to manufactureis of uo iden wares and iron ; in short, to biM'.g into activity and use her natural resources, which are incalculable ami which have 1 tin untouched for twenty five years only because her people have had no money to work w ith. With $:0, 000,000 thus lent by the State at 5 per cent she would receive annually one mil lion, five hundred thousand dollars in in terest . With that she could establish a sinking fund of $.100,000 per annum, and in twenty years p :y off her funded debt. "W ith this in hand she could begin to re duce State taxation at once; could largely increase her school funds, and establish a bureau of immigration, aad in a very few years discontinue taxation except for county and municipal purposes. Bor rower? from the State, would get value received in the loan as low interest would thus take the place of taxpayers! Kansas could lend to her citizens at 5, 4 or thue per cent, and then they could lift the present mortgage debt of $'235, 000. 000, due mainly to'the East, and at the same time put interest monev enough in the State treasury to relieve them from State taxation. He contends that as all the money that can be borrowed is in the Eastern States, it is practically useless to the South and West. Under "the system he advocates the monev and security are in the same State-are neighbors and will exchange -and intcre-t will go to the benefit of both lender and borrower and all the people in the State; whereas, now the interest paid, as a rule goes East. The interest now paid per annum by the whole people goes to enrich those who are already too rich for the safety of the Republic, and that interest would be dis tributed among the whole people taken by States. lie contends that the present banking system is a monopoly, because it is based on but one class of securities Govern ment bonds: second, that it is monarchi cal, being fashioned on the plan of the Hank of Kngland during the first century of its existence; and. third, that our banking system is m.r. ha-ed on money or coin, but i paper credit. The whole system rests on the ( Jovernment's credit, hereas his proposed system wovld rest on coin in the treasury sufficient to meet all demands of foreign commerce and do mestic trade. Norwood substitute for the Alliance sub-treaury plan avoids Federal action. Each State lends to farmers on land and on its own especial products at low inter est. Thus he says he establishes equality for all and shows favoritism to none. He contends that his plan obviates every ob jection hitherto made to the Alliance sub treasury plan, and gives farmers sure re lief, rs the allotment of currency he pro poses not only equalize? it if lent by States as the States' volume of currency, but thus distributed will remain perma nent in each State, because the State being the lender and the principal being lent to its citizens it must return to the State with interest as the principal falls due. t ! A TALK WITH JERRY. Topeka, Kan Jerry Simpson says that Alliance vote amoDg the farmers in Kansas is increasing but slowly since last year. The principal gains have been in the cities and towns where the Citizens1 Alliance has been hard at work this year. He estimates the increase at 20 per cent, over last year. Speaking of the negroes in the South he said : "They aie flocking to us in the South. I believe that this movement is the solu tion of the race problem. It divides the colored as well as the white vote of the South. If it does nothing else it will do that much good at least. The old fight between the blacks and the whites will be broken; the blacks will take issue with each other in politics the same as the whites. That's what they ought to do. The lines are closer drawn in the South than here. Everything divides on the tub-treasury scheme. It is either en dorsed or opposad bv every man in the South. "How many members has the Alliance ia the United States?" "In thirty-eight states and territories we have 4,000,000 members.'' "And you expect to have a National ticket in ?92? Who will lead it?'' "O, Lord, I don't know Some far mer now unheard of may spring up and prove himself the right man for the place. Just at present the only men in sight are Weaver and Polk.'' Jf. -k rf; The Alliance in Michigan has prosper ed beyoud the most sanguine expectations during the past year. It has increased in numbers and effectiveness, until now it may well be considered as one of the reliable and staunch State organizations of the Order. Under the intelligent and conservative guidance of its officers, no factious have arisen, no disscntions have occuned in the ranks, but to the con trary, a uuity of action and continuity of purpose has directed all its efforts. It has taken care of itself and its growth and condition is the result of home ef fort. Michigan has never been accorded the aid which comes from large meetings, addressed by national officers or men of National reputation in the order, hence it may be considered as self-made in all respects. The good work done in Michi gan has had its effect in other States. if. . i St Jf. The Alliance Vindicator, of Sulphur Springs, Texas, was on the 18th wit. dressed in full mourning, on account of of the death of its able and true editor, Hrother Moore, who -was killed in a per sonal difficulty, which was reported to b the culmination of a bitter contro versy over the demands of the Order. The Vindicator promises an account of the affair next week. Brother Moore was an able and true Alliance man, res pected and beloved by all who knew him. His untiriDg zeal, devotion and ability has built up the Vindicator, and his labors contiibuted largely to the suc cess of the movement. The Alliance Sigual (Gonzales. Tex.) says: We would like to remind those who bleat so much about "capitalistic influence" that if every dollar of capital was swept from the earth, labor and la bor alone, would reproduce it again. Therefore, capital is but the creation of labor, and should Le the hand-niaid of industry. It is said that the Farmers' Alliance have 555,000 lecturers in the field, be side a number of volunteers, who are giving the people light on all economic question3. The Headquarters of the National Farmers' Alliance and Industrial Union is in the National Economist building, 2!59 North Capitol Street, Washingtc n, D. C. Two Epitaphs.

Fifty years ago a dress suit of blao'i broadcloth was the every day attire of many gentlemen and mDit clergymen of Ne.v York, and it was worn in the street as well as at home.
