Several Substitutes For" Treasury Bill. the Sub- "A Reformer7' Dissects These Substi tutesOffered in Response to the Request "Give us Some thing Better." Xalional Kconomist. The Alliance has always said If you don't like the sub-treasury plan give us something better. We are not wed ded to auything. What we want is re lief, financial relief, and we do not care from what source it comes or what its prin ciples, provided it is honest, 'constitu tional,' no class legislation, and promises to be permanent in its beneficial effects." si:::ATon bctier's scbstiti'te. The press repoits that Senator Butler offers as a substitute State banks of issue. If he means such banks as those that ex isted before the war, having the same or similar powers and privilege, his plan is open to these objection: 1. The plan is not honest. No indi vidual or corporation has the right to live and grow rich on the interest of the money he or it owes. I mean just what I say "on the iuteret of the money he or it owes.' It is right that you collect interest on what is due you, but it is rob bery to make your neighbor pay you in terest on what you owe him? This is what the "State bank" of Senator But ler's does. The bank issues for every dollar of coin it holds three (more or less) "promises to pay" dollars. If the issue is three dollars in aper promises for one dollar in gold, of course two of these bills rest only upon "thin and insubstantial air." But when the people borrow these two notes from the bank these two notes which tire the mere "promises to pay" of the bank the people pay inter est to the bank, to the extent of two thirds of its issue, and the bank is ena bled to grow rich upon the interest on that money which it owes to and has prom ised to pay the people. I leave out of view the interest the bank collects upon the money it owes to depositors. The old "free banking system" is no better. 2. There is grave doubt as to its constitutionality. The trend of decis ions, and of enlightened public sentiment is certainly against it. The national gov ernment alone has the right to make money. The States have delegated the power to coin money to the general gov ernment. Can the State delegate to" the citizens a power that is inhibited to it by the constitution 3. It is class legislation of the worst character. It is legislat on in favor of money capitalists. It compels the people in the first instance to lend the capital ist twice or three times the amount of his capital without interest, and then as a bonus pay him interest on two-thirds of it a currency that O' ght to reach the hands of the people "without price.'" 4. No permanent relief will result to the people from such a course as Senator Butler suggests. It is a proposition to go back again into the mire from which we are just beginning to emerge. Apart from the curse of siu, the delegated pow .'r of cue class to create money and exact interest for its use from all other classes has caused more misery and suffering to the human race than all other causes com bined. It has created the rich to live iu luxury and ease, but at the expense of the poor who must live iu squalor and suffering. One would think tli&t no one with a knowledge of the past, however bitter the present waters or burning the present sands, would propose a return to the bondage of Egypt. Look back one hun dred year- over our own history and that of the mother country and see the lurid panic fires that burned up the substance of the people. At every decade they g:eam in the sombre light of history 13.T7, 1847, 1837, 1827, 1815-17. the national banks, an improvement upon the old "free banking" system of Sena tor Butler, came in with the war in lHt2 and postponed the crash until 1873. No one can deny that the banking system of our own and the mother country was the main cause of all these disastrous crises. No; the substitute will not do. The people have gotten too far alouy- in their study of political economy to return to an old relic of tinaucial barbarism. "We the people'' will make and issue our own money to ourselves without interest. THE N Y. TRIBUTE'S SUBSTITUTE. It is no experiment. It is simple iu it& wot kings. It is tree to all. No class leg islation is necessary to carry it into effect and beyond doubt it is constitutional. The Tribune's plan is to "raise more corn." and it is conveyed to the people iu these pleasant words: "With better weather the mortgages vanish, and aK the idea that there must be a new party in order to raise more coru ." In other words, bad weather cre ates 1 he mortgages, and your relief lies not in th- or-ja dation of any political party, but r iisiag more corn." Ye-i. men of Kansas and Nebraska! You v.h burnt your corn because it v.-cis i ma per than fuel, are told bv the Tribune that bad weather made your moit gage. that better will cause them to vanish: that you need not seek through the ballot, through a new party to rigaty our wrongs: thai you do not ueed a government warehouse in which to store your com until you ran reap the profit, which goes to the speculator and the gambler, but that the way out of your trouble lies in raising "more corn" yes, "'move corn for fuel. THE N. Y. WORLD'S SUBSTITUTE. Thl is also constiiutitmal. It dots not necessitate "a swarm of oliicers" to cau v it into effect. It i-- free fiom the charge of "paternalism. " The World, like Job's war horse with the battle, only "smells the battle afar off.'" True, it is open to the charge of "class legislation," because it will flourish best upon a certain iso thermal line. Here it is. The World says: From Florida to Texas, let the Farm tis' Alliauce renouuee the pawn-broking idea of sub-treasury and fiud fortunes iu the culture of that fragrant bulb-the ouiou." Yes, farmer, ynu who helped wiih money to bu'.ld the bih dome of the Pulitzer building are told by the World, that has its home there, to give your ef forts to secure the sub-treasury plan and "find fortunes'" in raising onions. It would seem it is time for the farmer and the laborer to take back those words "or something better," and demand the sub-treasury plan without amendment, pure and simple. A Reformer. $ A if. Lenoir County Alliance. North Caro lina, requests the publication of the fol lowing resolutions unanimously adopted: Whereas the political press have made numerous assaults and misrepresentation? aaimt our honored national president, l! L. Polk : Resolved, That we, the County Alli ance of Lenoir county, in convention as sembled, do still hold our president iu Inch esteem, and that our faith iu him as a christian gentlemen and noble officer is unshaken. Resolved, That the slanders made pub lic against him, in every instance, have to our satisfaction been disproved, and that we will stand by him with unflinch ing zeal. tf. A ; The Department of Agriculture, of Victoria, Australia, sent circulars to the head teachers of all the graded schools outside of the metropolitan area a short time ago asking for their views as to the desirability of giving instruction in ag riculture to the children attending those schools. Of 1,248 teachers. 84 per cent, are favorable to the introduction of agri cultural lessons in the rural schools, and 34 per cent, of them already have some acquaintance with the theories of agri culture. In fifty-two cases school chil d'ea already care for gardens or trees in the school reserves, and the ma jority of the scholars attending 3Gil other schools have garden plot?, or assist their parents at home in gardening. Iu 1GT schools the pupils have regularly made collec tions of wild flowers, weeds, grasses, iu sects and butteiflies, aud these collec tions have been used in object lessons. : The State meeting of the Michigan Alliance was held last week under the most favorable circumstances. It passed resolutions squarely endorsing the Ocala demands in full. The following officers were selected: President A. E. Cole. Vice-President D. B. Demiug. Secretary Anna E. Potter. Treasurer A. D.

C, Farmers' Alliance took place at the court house iu Aiken. It was decided to reduce the acreage planted in cotton next year and to plant more grain, corn, peas aud grasses and also to raise more meat. They will await the action of the Cotton Growers' Con vention which meets in Atlanta soon to determine the acreage of cotton to the plough. The farmers were advised to hold back all the cotton they could to bring better pr'ces. The Alliance in North and South Da kota are doing well. They learned the doctrines of the Alliance early, and have to a greater or lesser extent put them into practical use. - The report of the proceedings of the N. C.

"Well, I suppose yoa have heard a great maiiy big stories of our wonderful "crop,'' remarked Hon. Thomas Simp son, of Winona, the other day, "but I have just heard one which I know is true and which well indicates th great ness of this year's crop in th grain -j be sides wheat," Mr. Simp-son then related to the reporter the history of t .vo Win ona boy in South Dakota last surnmsr, withholding the names of the young men. This spring they rented 320'J acres in South Dakota at fifty cents an acre and put iu a crop of flax. From this farm they obtained 50,O0J bushels of flax, an average of a little over fifteen bushels to tbe acre. Selling this at ninety-five ceu:s p-r bushel the youa.j farmers realized "47,50D.

Short-Lired Athletcg. Did it ever occur to you, said a Boston trainer, that athlete3 are rarely long lived? By athletes I mean the folks who are training themselves continually for special feats of muscular power, and I leave out the dilettante amateur who ex ercises slightly, comparatively speaking, and then with only the objest of phys ical development. It is my opinion that, as a rule, the professional athlete is not a very good risk for the life in surance people. And this aside from any risk of physical in jury of a sudden nature to which the athlete iu the course of his performances may bs subject. I think it would seriously stump you if I asked you to name a dozen cases of ex treme longevity among men who have been famou3 for their muscular power and skill. B it anybody can name a aoz.m people who have led sedentary lives from boyhood aud attained extreme old age. Very strange as it may appear, consumption is a disease to whica the swimmer, the oarsman, the runuer and the lighter have all on numerous occa sions fallen victim. Rheumatism U another common disorder. All of which sometimes makes me think that natura never intended the development of the human physical energies to tli3 p'mt at whk-h they are often obierved. The athlete who lives the longest is the man who used to be an athlete and gave up his athletic fancies and plans before he had reache l middle life. Otherwise you hud that the average of years on earth of athletes is suprisiugly low. Tli3 Longest liivcr Tunnel. The St. Clair tunnel is the longest river tunnel in the world. It is 0050 feet long. From the American cutting to the river edge is 1800 feet, aud from the Canadian cutting to the river edge is 195!) feet, and the distance across the river is ''3'vJ feet. The tunnel walls are of cast-iron segments, thirteeu of which and a key form a circle. The segment dimensions are: Length, four feet ten inches; width, eigthteeu inches; thick ness, two inches, with flanges inside six inches deep and lv inches in thickness. Their total weight is 26,000 tr.us. The segments are bored aud secured in place with bolts seven-eighths of an inch in diameter aud weighing iu all 2,000,000 pounds. The outside diameter of the tunnel is twenty-one feet and twenty feet Ja-'ide. The soil excavated amounts to i,iyt5,40O cubic feet. Employment has been steadily furnished to 700 men since lirst the work of construction began and costs complete about 3,000.000. It is a year a io since the eugineers, who had been working toward each other from opposite shies oi' the river tit ted th'.iir hy draulic shields together and shook hands fathoms below the surface. The ap proaches and railway tracks have been completed sines that day. The Grand Trunk peopb believe that when the tun nel is in actual use it will offer facilities for through communication between Chicago and all points east which will be greatly appreciate! by passengers and by freight shippn-s. it shortens the dis tauc.: to th..- -'i'j)ard about six miles and save-; t v ;. oars iu ti tue. Cft k:tjo An Annual Presentation ol Fruit. The presentation of fruit to the Lord Mayor of London by the Fruiterers' Com pany in olden times simply took the form of twelve baskets of apples. The fruit was carried to the Minsion House by porters from Farringd u Market, headed by the company's beadle with his gown aud staff. The Lady Mayoress used to place a bottle ot wine in each of the empty baskets for the use of the car rier.:, who were then, says the Biok of Ceremonies, "regaled with a diuneiyand, having satisfied themselves, retired, tak ing with them the fragments for their evening " supper." Of late years the apples have given place to pineapples, nectarines, peaeae; and all the choice i'ru't in season.
