ACT IN THE LIVING PRESENT.
There is no higher crime against a
free government than to abridge or
trample upon the rights of citizenship.
The glory of any country is the de
fense it throws around its humblest
inhabitant. That is the great countrv
whose citizens, from the highest to the
lowest, are equally free and indepen
dent. This is the secret of the unpar
allelled greatness of ancient Greece
and" Rome. At one time, to have
been a Roman citizen was to have had
a sure guarantee of protection, not
only in Rome, but even in the most
distant and barbarous countries on the
globe. And so has it been with
America. But is it so to-day? .Our
own grand Republic is tottering on its
base; the name American citizen has
lost its power for protection, and uh
less the almighty dollars will jingle in
a man's pocket, so far as protection is
concerned, he may go to the devil.
This is not a day dream, it is a stern
fact, and our readers know it to be
true. Patriot 1 if you would save your
country, act now! Forget the rivers
of gore that flowed in " our horrible
war, and
Let the dead past bury its de d;
Act! act in the living pref ent,
Heart within, and God o'er head.
It will be too late to save the Re
public when partisan prejudices has
stabbed it to the heart and monopoly
has sucked aw&y its life-blood. Our
Country. -
The SuHTreasury bill proposes
simply that the government shall lend
its credit to its people on as easy terms
as to national banks. It lends its
credit in the shape of bank bills to
these banks at one per cent. Why
not lend its credit in the shape of
treasury notes to the people at one per
cent ? Luray Uunion.
GENESIS OF INIQUITY IN GOV
ERNMENTS. .' C
Chap. I.
1. In the beginning man created
commodities.
2. And exchange was without in
terruption, and direct; and financiers
were a thing unknown. .But the
Spirit of Greed moved upon the hearts
of men.
3. And Government said, Let there'
be gold coin: and there was gold
coin.
4. And Government saw the gold
coin, that it was capable of monopyly:
and Government divided gold coin
from all other mediums of exchange.
5. And government called gold com
Legal Tender, and other mediums of
exchange he called Taxable Notes.
And confusion and depression were
the first day. -
6. And Government said, Let
there be a monopoly in the midst of
the people, and let it divide the com
modities from the commodities.
7. And government created the
monopoly, and divided the commodi
ties of the producer from the com
jnodities of the consumer: and it was
so.
8. And Government called the mo
nopoly Bank. And poverty and
wretchedness were the second day.
9. And Government said, Let
the gold coin be gathered together
unto one place, and let paper appear:
and it was so.
10. And Government called the pa
per Bonds; and the gathering together
of the gold coin called the Good Se
curity : and Government saw that it
was good.
11. And Government said, Let the
Bonds bring forth compound Interest
and usury, yielding extortion after his
kind: and it was so.
12. And the Bonds brought forth
Interest and usury, yielding extortion,
whose seed was in itself after its kind:
and Government saw that it was
good.
13. And misery and want were the
third day.
1 4. And Government said, Let
there be forces behind fthe Banks, to
protect the Creditor from the Debtor;
and let them be to collect the Interest,
by the seasons, and by the days, and
by the years.
15. And let them be to protect the
Banks, and to intimidate the people:
and so it was.
16. And Government made two
great forces; the greater force to kill
the insubordinite; and the lesser force
to demand the Interest; and he made
the police force also.
17. And Government set them all
over the country to intimidate the
people.
18. And the greater force the gov
ernment called Army; and the lesser
force called the Civil Authority: and
Government saw that it was good. -
19. And fear and trembling were
the fourth day.
20. i And Government said, Let
the good Security buy up the land
and take rent that may crush the pro
ducer.
21. And Government created the
great tariff, and every tax that op-
presseth the workers, and all Interest
which the Bonds brought forth abun
dantly, after their kind : and Govern
ment saw that it was good.
22. And Government blessed them,
saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and
monopolize an the exchange, and let
the rent increase upon the earth.
23. And desolation and crime were
the fifth day.
24. And Government said, Let
the Bonds be perpetuated, and be pay
able in gold, and let usury and scul
duggery bring forth fruit after their
kind : and it wa3 so.
25. And Government made Taxes
after their kind, and Interest after its
kind, and Rent after its kind: and
Government saw that it was good. "
26. And Government said, Let
us make politicians in our image, after
our likeness: and let them have domin
ion over the Taxes on commodities,
and over the rent of the earth, and
over the interest on the Bonds.
27. So Government created politi
cians in his own image, in the image
of Government created he them.
28. And Government blessed them,
and said unto them, Be fruitful and
govern the people and subdue them,
and have dominion over Rent, Interest
ana Taxes.
29. And Government said. Be
hold, I have given you Rent, Interest
ana laxes, that you may have domin
ion over all voters, and over every
thing that voteth upon the face of the
earth.
30. And over all workers on the
earth, that ye may live upon the pro
duct of their toil. I have given you
their wealth: ana it was so.
31. And government saw every
thing that he had made, and, behold.
it looked very good, But fury and
wrain were tne sixth aay.
Chap. II.
1. Thus Rent, Interest, and Taxes
were finished, and all the host of
roliticians.
2. And the seventh" dav Govern
ment ended the confusion and misery
he had made; and he rested ons the
seventh day from all the crime he had
committed, and gave man a chance -3.
And the seventh day was blessed
because, that on it Government rested
and the'era of man began.
4. And it came to pass, that man
- . m m m -w- r 1 i i lr i .1 k 11 k w m 1 m w - r m ft . w m t
said, We will exchange freely without
Bonds or sold coin; and it was so,
and Interest was no more.
5. And man said, Behold, each of
us will rule himself: ana it was so.
And the politicians went to the land
of Nod, and took unto tnemseivea
work.
6. And man said. Behold, much
and is vacant, we will settle thereon,
and pay no rent.
7. And Banks and Politicians canea
upon government, saying, Help us, for
man has sense.
8. But Government was resting
from all his labors: and the Army and
Civil Authority were no more.
9. Thus Rent, Interest, and Taxes
were abolished.-
10. And every man reaped the full
product of his toil.
11. And eace and prosperity were

FROM ABANDONED FARMS.
Some of the Thoughts that Came to a
Man Who Occupies Two of Them.
I have lived on a farm all my life,
and now occupy two abandoned farms
which adjoin my own. Their former
owners got into debt and the farms
were sold at sheriff s sale, and are now
owned by men who are able to live
without working a farm. I remember
the hard times of the " fifties " before
the war, and also the good times just
after that "unpleasantness," when
money was abundant and all the pro
ducts of labor brought good prices.
All kinds of business were brisk and
all classes seemed to be prospering, in
spite of the fact that we were them
paying a large war debt. Oh, we are
paying it still, and our taxes are just
as heavy now as they were when the
debt was more than twice as large.
hid. The public officers, apparently
jealous of the prosperity of the people,
had their own salaries doubled, and
these have generally remained un
changed to the present day, while the
prices of the products of labor have
been reduced one half, and in many
cases more than that.
We were told that tho prices of
those days were "fictitious" on ac
count of the prevalent "inflation,"
and that we must come down to a
"gold basis," and of course the way
to "come down" was by contraction,
and the way we have come down has
been fun for the bondholder, but
death to the -farmer. Although in
figures we have already paid more
than one half of the national debt, it
will take more of the products of labor
to pay the remainder than it would
have done before a cent had been
paid. This is not an accidental con
dition ; it is a premeditated scheme to
rob labor of its just dues. We all
ought to know that scarcity of any
necessary or desirable thing makes it
high in price, and money is no excep
tion to the rule; but money being the
measure of value, the ordinary mind
fails to grasp the idea that money can
be high in price.
But many a farmer knows to his
sorrow that it takes double the amount
ofJprodu:e to get a dollar that it did
twenty-five years ago, and hence they
have tried every means to increase
their crops only to make the matter
worse by helping to bring down
prices. One correspondent of the
Rural mentioned laziness as one of the
causes of the existence of so many
abandoned farms, but human nature
is just the same to day as it was
twenty -five years ago, and young men
are just as eager to own a farm and
home of ther own as ever; but they
have seen too many caught in the
agricultural trap to feel like trying it
themselves. They have seen men
grow old and gray in useless toil try
ing to pay for a home, and after they
have made improvements, and in part
paid for it, it has perforce of hard
times been sold out, only to help en
rich the money shark' and to add one
more to the list of abandoned farms.
The farmer labors under too many
disadvantages. Let me mention a
few. If he waters his milk, he is-a
fit candidate for the State prison, and
a sojourn there would serve him right;
but the railroad man waters his stock
for the same purpose (to get something
for nothing), and he is a fit candidate
for the United States Senate. The
farmer issues his promise to pay and
piys the interest on it. The banks
issue their promises to pay and get
interest on them. Real estate pays
an outrageously large disproportion of
all State taxation. If the farmer is
in debt on his farm he is taxed for
the full amount, while the man who
hold3 the mortgage often gets off scot
free. Again, our tariff system on the nec
essaries of life causes the poor man to
pay as much of the tax as the rich
man, and causes millions to accumu
late in the United States Treasury,
and these are lentto the banks free
of interest. Farms that were bought
twenty-five years ago at $40 per acre
will not sell at the present time for
$20. But United States bonds were
bought at forty cents on the dollar.
and were then refunded in such a
I way that they are now worth $1.28.
The cause of all this is that we have
voted for money sharks and corpora
tion lawyers to make our laws, and
they have Made them in their own in
terest and those of their clients.
Now, if these conditions continue to
exist ' it is only a question of time
when the farmer who owns; the'land
he tills will be a person of the past,
and his place will be filled by the mis
erable tenant farmers so common in
the Old World. W. W. Coats, Alle
ghiny county, New York, in Rural

BLACKBERRIES.
Where wild blackberries are so fine
and so plentiful as they are all over
North Carolina, it is hard to get
growers to realize that there is large
profit in cultivating them. The low
prices at which the wild berries usually
sell lead them to suppose that the cul
tivated fruits wouli go in at the same
rate: This is a great mistake. In
Baltimore while the wild berries
shipped in buckets are selling for a
song, the cultivated ones shipped in
quart boxes and packed in crates bring
a better average price than straw
berries, and many growers in Mary
land and Delaware consider them
more profitable. The sorts now cul
tivated have been selected from wild
plants at the North. We have among
us many wild plants which produce
very superior fruits. Will the farm
ers and fruit growers co-operate with
us in developing a blackberry that
will bring money to their pockets ? If
you know or find a wild plant with
very superior fruit, mark it, and next
fall, in November, send the plant to
the N. C. Agricultural Experiment
Station at Raleigh. Do this and aid
us in making the Station the source of
real profit to farmers, truckers and
fruit growers. W. H. Massey Horti
