The monopolists and mos eyed men, do not vvant more money. That may seem strange when we take into consideration their extreme greed and covetousness, i but it is nevertheless rue, They do not want more money coined because it would lower the interest on money. More money means a rise of prices, there is no question about that, but how much they would raise would be a question of uncertain speculation. That would depend entirely upon how much was put into circulation and how much of it was used to enlarge an'd extend business. Os course hie extension of business and consequent added production would have a tendency to check the rise of prices which would be the natural result of more money. It is not the amount of money coined that regulate prices; we might have double the amount of; money now in circulationand if half of it were Ijing in the banks the prices would not raise. But the! amount of money coined regulates the interest to some extent. It would not be from the raise of prices that we would ex pect to gain, however, for that would only be a result caused by the decrease in the value of money, but our gain would be from the decrease of interest on money. It would be more plentiful, easier to ob tain and would command a lower rent — $ interest. This, we, think, is what the people want. The principal effects of more money might be summed up thus—it would raise prices and lower the interest on money How do we know this? Because the more plentiful an article is the cheaper it is. This is a natural law, the other is selfevident. - Now we think this sufficiently explains why the capita.ists have always been.fight, ing what they call “inflation of the currency” and have been steadily contracting it. They don’t want cheap money. Why ? Because they have it to sell, and they are exerting all their powers to make the peo pie believe that a large volume of money : n circulation would cause untold evils. Some poor innocent persons who are full of the poetry of faith believe it too. * The poor man ‘ wants cheap money because he .has it to buy; and cheap money means more money. Now if the people could get money at a lower rate of interest so that they could pay it and make a reasonable profit, they would borrow more money and enlarge their business and thus give employment to thousands of persons who are now un employed. There would be a spirit of enterprise, and farmers would hire hands to build barns to save their grain, and the country would take a new growth. But when money is so high that it takes all, or nearly all the pre fits of the business for which it is used to pay the interest, men cannot afford to borrow it. Th&t is why business is in such a state of lethargy now. It will be hard to get the law-makers to pass a more money law, for by so doing they will decrease their own salary; and, besides, they are mostly wealthy men and such a law would not be to their interest. The g. o. p. knows that the people associate good times with high prices, and with a pretended ignorance that would flatter a born fool, continue to raise the tariff to keep prices up, while they go on steadily contracting the currency. Then if the people growl because of hard times they point them to the high prices and compare them with England, and try to persuade them that it is only a notion about hard times; that it is only a morbid discontent of the people caused by dj spep sia and that we are a prosperous and happy people. Yes, the only way to raise prices is to J stick on more tariff (if the currency is diminished at the same time.) So let have more tariff. But the people are be ginning to see—through this thin scheme; they are finding out that high prices, made so by a tariff, are not the same as h ; gh prices caused by p’enty of money. Finally, McKinley has succeeded in getting the prices up to suit the g. o. p , and now, after the excitement pluses off, they can go on with their contractions WithoU’ any further trouble. We do not suppose that any one d rubts that the currency is being cooti acted, for if my memory is net at fault, the amount ol money per capita in 1862 was $57, while now it is perhaps |io or sl2. . J • The question to be answered now is, how long will we let this state of affairs continue? Will it be until the amount of money-is so small that the capitalists can control it all? We hope not, but the wind is blowing that way. In conclusion, we hope that the people will bear in mind that the two words, Republican and capitalists, are synonyms, except when the former is applied to the poor, blind fellow who follows the party from force of habit, or who was trained to it when young, like a dog, and does not know enough to quit, in that case Repub- • lican is synonymous with “cat paws,” ‘‘tools” and Other words of like meaning.

Florida Letters. Through the kindness of Mrs Dick Townsend we are permitted to publish the following letters from her father, .who is now with his wife and Judge Studabaker taking in the sights of the Southern states The letters will prove very interesting a« Mr. Allison is a very good descriptive writer: Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 1, IS9I. We arrived here yesterday morning 10:30 a, m. from Atlanta, Ga., having spent one day and night at that place. In reference to tire country through which we passed will say that I have not formed an exalted opinion of it. With the exception of the land between Cincinnati and south of Lexington, Ky., it is very much broken and in some places mountainous and the soil is of red clay. Your mother says I have given it aTashionable name—“ Terra Cotta.” In and about Atlanta the country is some improvement over the balance, but nothing to brag on. They tell me, however, that the soil produces eood cotton and in some places corn and wheat, but I have not seen any good wheat except in the vicinity of Rome, Ga. In my opinion Atlanta is the best city in the south,'unless I except New Orleans. It is an enterprising go-ahead city with lots of business and wealth and now has a population of 60,000 with eight banks with combined capital of $4,500,000 and deposits of $10,000,000, and one of the very best state houses, costing about one million dollars which is one of the best arranged structures of the kind. In addition they have quite a number of other public buildings which would compare favorably with many in our large northern cities. It rained neatly all the wav down here which was the means of interfering with our There is one other matter I wish to refer to and that which astonished me the mosty the absence of good farm houses and barns on the plantations, there scarcely being any, with the exception of a few in and about Lexington and Danville, Kyi, the most of the farms hiving one story frame and log buildings and the frames are unpainted, and the sur roundings in poor condition as if the people had no energy or inclination to improve their condition. Jacksonville for what little I have seen ot it is quite a good business place but has not any particular good buildings, the best being hotels, but in the suburbs they claim to have some very ftrte residences, but have not got to see them yet, but we expect to take a carriage this afternoon and ride over the City which they claim has a population of 25,000 The river St. Johns is a very beautiful one in places over two miles wide, but is salty, the tide coming up this far if not further. There is only one bridge over it and that for railroad purposes, all vehicles have to be ferried over. The prices of living here are extortionate. We are stopping'at the hotel on the European plan paying two dollars for our room and paying about sixty cents fora very poor breakfast and sqpper and about one dollar •for dinner. We were out at the sub-trop-ical garden yesterday evening where they •have everything on display that is produced in the state. They have all kinds of fruit, mineral, stone and marble, three different kinds of wood, tropical trees, etc., which to me is a creditable display and an honor to the city and state; We are going to St. Augustine;on the Atlantic ocean and will lenlain there for one day and take our dinner at the finest hotel in the south, “The Ponce DeLon,” whose charges are all the w ay from sls to SSO per day. It was built by one of the Standard Oil Co. magnates, Mr. Flagler, and cost, as I understand, about $3,000,000. This luxury we take in for the purpose of seeing the style. From St. Augustine vve will go direct to Palatka, thence to Sanford, both of which are on the river above here. We will then go on directly to Tampa in the vicinity of which we expect to locate and rest. Judge Studabaker is well but tires out sight-steing. My wife stands the racket better than the Judge or myself, in fact she never runs dotvn. Yesterday was the only decent day we have had since we left home, clear and warm, in fact so hot that the. Judge and myself had to go out and buy light underwear,’the mercury standing at about fifty degrees. Your truly, >■ . R. B. Allison. Fogarty Landing, Feb. 7, IS9I. We arrived at this place yesterday from Tampa, it is on the Manitee river which puts into the Bay of Tampa, forty miles from the city. Our object in coming here was to see the beautiful scenery along the bay and river, and it certainly is grand. We also wanted to do some fishing which we tried this a. m. but without much success. The only beautiful towns we have struck : so far was Atlanta, Ga., and St. Augus- . t’n-’. The other places are all tarred with : the same stick—mud and nothing to do. We were at Tampa the night the great s new hotel of Mr. Plant was opened and they had it grandly illuminated. There , a host of people from all over the 1 country present on the occasion, among f the rest the Captain General, of Cuba, 1 who came over t xpres-ly for the occasi ?n. I We have had moderate health since leaving home, but I was unfortunate in : taking some pills that Judge Studabaker - carries with him for nervousness. I took . five and alter they got into the system they • paitially paralyzed my leg, they haying r strychnine in them. • \ > We will probably go back home by the t way of Wilmington, N. C.; Charleston, - S C , and on to Washington City, it we ’: do will advise you. As they are waiting . to send this to the office will have to close. | R. B. A.

Honduras Items. ' John Burket has transferred a portion of his household effects to the widow Scherry farm which he has rented Paul Stoutenberry who hns been visiting in various portions of Ohio, returned home last week hale and hearty. Since we exposed Ed Fulk last week he is busy reading the statutes prercribed by George W. Peck. Carl Dusder and Bill Nte. And boys ye may be lookin’ ter be exposed ven der time kums Levi Johnson delights in the sports of young folks yet. But he says he don't like the idea of boys turning up all his fire wood when they make their rounds Saturday evenings at his res-idence sparking their best girls. Those three young men, though not worthy of being called such, who floated south from No. 5 in their-cornjuice boat want to steer a little more towards the middle of their accustomed route and not try and wreck themselves by upsetting fences, gates and doing other indecent work, or they may be tempted to pull up bay of jurisdiction and have the grand jury repair their damages. On the sth of this month occurred an exciting scene at this place. Henry Hilge and Dave Crum were engaged to buzz a large pile ot wood for G. M. Houck. The engineer not being present Henry concluded to perform that task if Dave would do the guiding. An agreement was soon efiected and after considerable reversing Henry managed to get the engine to go. and the rate they went over the frozen ground was amazing. Things seemed to move smoothly till they passed through an orchard, and under a high pressure the speed and position of the trees soon bewildered Dave and he steered almost direct for a large apple tree. Da l e was brushed off and Henry hung on a limb. The engine now free from attendants started for an old wagon that stood several feet away, first crashing through three pannels of board fence and fimily came in contact with the wagon demolishing the rear portion and was finally checked in its mad career by running against a bird house post, and soon Dave began chopping at the post while the engine was yet in motion. Dave soon recovered from his adventure and shut the throttle and th< n preceded out the damages, which were as follows; Guide chain broken, rear part of wagon demolished, three 0 pannels. of fence needed repairing, several scratches in the face and a bruise amidships; while Henry escaped with nearly the same amount of bruises. They at last managed to get enough wood sawed to pay for the damages incurred, and now that firm has concluded to ask the assistance as a chief engineer when in active work. Queer things will happen and alj have had a hearty laugh. Before and After Using. At one time I had awful sores and pimples on my face, and after using two bottles of S. S. S. I was cured, and now have a nice, smooth complexion. Jas. L. Boyles, Atlanta, Ga MY LIFE A BURDEN. I was afficted from infancy with catarrh and with eruptions on my face for ten years. I was attended by the very best physicians, and tried a number of blood purifiers, without permanent re’ief. The mineral ingredients settled in my bones, and caused rheumatic trouble. My life was a burden to me, and my case was declared incurable, when I saw S. S. S advertised. Eight bottles cured me entirely and I feel like a rew person.
