The March King's stately name is known wherever music holds its own, wherever drums and cymbals throb, and orchestras hold down their job. A Sousa march just mention that, and mark how people smile thereat; they know what Sousa's music is; it's melody without the fizz; it's full of energy and pep, and makes old graybeards dance a step; they hear the sound of marching men, of chargers trotting down the glen, the 3hock of battle and the roar, and billows beating on the shore. And Sousa, when he would compose that music which the whole world knows, fills up his pipe with good old "Tux" (name t'other brands, and he says, "Shucks 1").

JtnJHUEnUnDanJ bonds will likely ho ubout 4 . 1.2 por 'cent undur present conditions; The cost of administering lit estimated at 'about one-halt of ono por cent, niak- lug tho interest five por cent. If two ! per cent is paid on tho principal oarh year, tho total rnto will bo seven por I cent, which is too high a rnto tor the javerago settler to pay, and is no hot jter than can be had in many ot tho eastern Btatcs today. A rural credit system, In ordor to i bo adequato nnd onnblo our farmers j to competo in tho markets ot tho i world, must rcduco tho Intorost rnto, i Including amortization, to at least five por cent. This can not bo dono by the 'atnto, but can bo dono by tho Fed eral government. Australia uses Its postal savings deposits for that pur I pose. Tho money deposited ln tho postal savings banks ot this country is loaned to banks for two and one- j fourth per cent. Australia pays its .depositors four per cent and limits tho amount that ono person may do- 'posit to $2000. This country pays its depositors two por cent and limits In ; dividual deposits to J500. If tho Uni ted States would ralso tho rate paid depositors to three or three and ono ; half per cent, and ralso tho limit that an Individual may deposit to $3000, 'it is probable that Instead ot n paltry seventy million dollars deposited In ,our postal savings banks, n largo por tlon of tho morn than four billion dol lars now ln private saving banks i would bo transferred to tha postal savings banks, thus giving tho gov ernment n largo fund which can be loaned direct to tho farmer us Is done In Australia, or to tho stato or dis trict on thoir rospoctl"u bonds. 1 am not In favor ot bonding tho state for any purposo It tho bonds are to be sold on tho market, (1st) be- , cause tho first exponso, tho interest on tho bonds, would bo trio high to begin with. (2nd) Wo would bo de pendent upon the snmo peoplo who have brought tho country to its pres ent financial condition, to purchaso tho bonds. They would bo asked to furnish the funds that would be used to lower tho prevailing rate of Inter est. (3rd) In caso ot panic or money stringency and tho farmer was ln 'greatest ned of money, there would bo no sale for the bonds, oxcept at a high rate of Interest. A rnral credit sytcm, to b'ado quate, must bo free from and inde pendent of the present financial sys tem, which is too easily manipulated for the benefit of tho few regardless of Injury to other Interests.

Any so-called rural crdelt system which does not take from tho present organization of banks the Issue and control of tho money of tho country, and does not restore that control to tho National government and docs not reduce the prevailing rute of In terest to T per cent or less is a de lusion and a snare.
