A YISIOSARY POLICY.
At the session of the National
Farmers' Alliance a resolution was
iotroducted indorsing Senator
Stanford's bill for loaning money
from tba) treasury on land at 2 per
cent interest, the mortgages to run
for thirty years. It will be re
membered that the Stanford bill
provided for loans up to one- half j
the assessed value of the land.
If this chimerical and visonary
scheme is to be indorsed in sober
earnest by the Farmers' Alliance
it is time for the people of the
United States to do some thinking
on the subject of national 6nances.
The San Francisco Chronicle sug
gests that people of the United
States should study the disastrous
results of a similar scheme, the
cedu'a system, in the Argentine
Republic, and see to what it had
led there, and what would be the
inevitable results if the same or
like system were to be adopted
here.
First, it must uever be forgotten
that the government has no money
and can have none. Sometimes
the people deposit with the treas
ury more money than is needed for
immediate use, but it is still the
people's money, not the govern
ment's. This being so, if the pt -1
pie vote to lend that money at 1
per cent a year for thirty years up
to 50 per cent of the value of land,
they attempt by so doing to hi a
rule of interest for themselves
which cannot be ma'ntained, as
the experience of centuries has
shown. Two per cent a year will
not pay for the use of money, tak
ing into consideration taxes and
the necessary expenses ; and yet
the people are asked to lend their
money co'lectively at a rate to
which they would not listen indi
vidually. In the second pla, the security
is insufficient. The temptation
to increase the assessed value of
land in many places would be so
irresistible, and land would acquire
a fictitious valu which would
greatly reduce the actual worth of
the security offered. Land worth
only $10 an acre would be assessed
at $16 or $18 an acre solely to make
the 60 per cent greater, the result j
being that on a piece of land worth,
say, $1000 that is, 100 acres at
$10 an acre the government
would be called upon to loan $800
or H) for thirty years at 2 per
cent a year. What member of the
Farmers' Alliance would lend his
own monev on such security ami
on such terms?
The idea of cheap money is verv
alluring, but the example of
Argentine should teach us that
clieap money may be very dear in
the long run. The people there
rolled. in money for several years
after the adoption of the cedula
system, but at lat settling day
came, the paper money went to
almost nothing and the tointry
Wtuie insolvent. The people of
the United States, including the
Farmers' Alliance, should consider
these things before thev indorse
Senator Stanford's land-loan
scheme.
Eves the Indians are ' kicking''
over the lite lamented census and
not without cause as they claim
that the law figures will cut their
rations short. According to th
apport'onment hill Oregon will re
ceive another congressman, which
will cover a innltirude of sins.
The Indian ont break begins to
look like a case for ihe police in
stead of for the army. Several
of the ghost dancers have been
quietly arrested ami lotige.i m jhh
Their eal will probably not su
vive a few daysimprisinmer.t.

Kuitr iih nit a w
to excite as much at -
-
tention as ever
Ir is evident that the war
department does not intend .o be
caught napping by the old scoun
drel Sitting Bull and those whom
he controls. While there is noth
ing in the situation to indicate any
fresh cause for alarm, the govern
ment is very sensible in massing
troops in readiness for and out
break, for the way to tight Indians
is to strike quick and hard. A
temporary success so exalts and
elates them that they think them
selves invincible, while if they are
met at once and cowed by a
superior or better-disciplined force
they are apt to br come discouraged
anl surrender or cease their war
fare. The policy of General Miles
in massing an overwhelming force
of troops at the scene of Indian
hostilities is the only correct one
In previous Indian campaigns the
soldiers have been so few that the
Indians laughed at them. This
Balpoi'k's generosity must touch
the Irish heart. He has proposed
in the commons that parliament
vote 5000 to provide seed potatoes
for the distressed Irish land culti
vators, which are to he sold at a
discount of 20 per cent in cash.
In view of the fact that the
distressed Irish land cultivator is
on the point of famishing and has
not enough money to buy a square
meal this offer will not be con
sidered a strikingly generous one.
The lumlerii)g interests up the
Sntiam on the line of the Oregon
Pacific rai'road are becoming a
part of the important industries of
the state Outside capitalists
have recently been looking the field
over with a view of erecting more
extensive saw-mills.
Over 20,000 registered women

beautifully less as time rolls on.
