The I'm piro Stale of Hie Futuro* The social philosophers who are beginning to interest themselves: in the race for primacy which Pennsylvania 1 has started out against New York will soon be called on to enlarge the scope of their survey. Estimates aro being made showing the time, at the present rate of growth, when the former would overtake the lat ter. In these calculations a dolicato balancing <>f the chances and proba bilities is shown, and all the factors, which, from the Kastern point of view, naturally enter into a problem of this sort are being weighed with considerable, (mri! and intelligence. Somebody made a prediction that Pennsylvania would lead New York in population about 1030, while others think that the change will como earlier. All of the prophets apparently aro satisfied that it will take place within the next thirty or forty yeats, and none of them seem to doubt that it will give Pennsyl vania the first place on the roll of States. It might be well for tile prophets, however, to take a look to thc West ward before announcing the result of their calculations with confidence. There are several large States in the Mississippi Valley which aro not only growing much more rapidly than either New York or Pennsly vnnia, but which have thc "promise and potency" of boundless develop ment in the future. They havo immense natural resources and great area on their sido in the contest for Supremacy with the States East of the Alleghenies. The gap which separates them from thc most popu lous of the older communities is steadily and rapidly narrowing. All thc States between tho third and sixth rank in this respect, both in cluded, arc in the Mississippi Valley. Two or three of these States will be within hailing distance, of the second piace in 1010. lt is entirely safe to predict that by the time Pennsyl vania gets abreast of Now York in tho rneo somo Western common wealth-perhaps Illinois or Ohio, possibly Missouri or Michigan, but jnobably Texas-will forge ahead of both and becomo thc Empire Stnto Of tho Union,-St. Louis (llobc I>emocrat.

Doar Sir-When I saw you hore on Tuesday you asked mo to givo you my viows upon the "Sub-Tron? rury plan," and to suggost such mea sures as I thought would give needed relief and protection to tho agricul tural interests of tho country. This I now proceed to do, although I cnn only do so imperfectly in tho limits of a lottor. Any discussion or vin dication of tho views herein ex pressed would bo impracticable in tho space nt my command. When a pcoplo clamor, there must always bo causo for such complaint. The masses do not murmur without ground for quarrel. Agriculturists everywhere aro aroused and aro de manding relief from their burdens. 1,V..-yr. t_ , I 1/........... C...... . o??o ? ..lim' in v..<j S?JitfW?U Mxiwo ttiU desortcd, because their owners can not, with tho most rigid economy and tho most untiring energy, make a meager support from tho tillage of tho soil. Farms in tho rich Western and Southwestern States aro so heavily mortgaged to Eastern capitalists that they cannot be redeemed by their owners. Loan Association agents in Topeka, Kan., and Kansas City report, according to a writer in the March Forum, that they have *(JO,000,000 of mortgages outstand ing in a dozen Western States. Agriculture in the South lan guishes, and large-landed proprietors aro what we term land-poor. With energy and economy unparalleled Southern planters eke out a misera ble existence, and enjoy few of thc comforts and none of the luxuries of life. In consecpiencc of this, men are Mooing from their farms to the towns and cities, to engage in other pur suits, which are remunerative and profitable. lt is admitted on all hands that agriculture is badly depressed. It behooves all patriots, all lovers of their country, to earnestly inquire what is the cuusc of thia depression, and what is the remedy ? No remedy eau be successfully ap plied till the cause of the present agricultural distress is fully ascer tained. Many causes have been assigned among others, these : 1. Overproduction. '2. Ignorance of the art and science of agriculture by those engaged in i farming. 3. Extravagance of the fanning I classes. i 4. Tho tariff. 5. Contraction of the currency ? since the war. i (5. The fiscal operations of the < government. While most, if not all, of these i causes may operate to depress agri- 1 culture and distress agriculturists, I think the fiscal policy of the govern- 1 mont furnishes the chief cause. It ? is evident to any unprejudiced mind I that the fiscal legislation of this ? country has been enacted in favor of < the moneyed power. Its tendency I has been to enrich the few and im- ] poverisb tho masses, to swell the < wealth of tho protected and to in crease the poverty of the unprotected, < nnd to Hil the coffers of great corpo- ' rations and to empty the pockets of tho people. Tho greatest need of the pcoplo of this country is the complete divorce of tho government from thc money power. To remedy thia ?tate of things I am in favor of these measures : I. A tariff for revenue only. A protective tariff is a great iniquity. I don't believe in tho doctrine of tax ing the many to unable the manu facturer to make his particular busi ness profitable. To forcibly illustrate this, it is wrong to make consumers of quinine, throughout tho United States, pay from $4 to $G per ounce for that drug because of an import tnx on it, imposed in order to enable a few firms in Philadelphia to reap a handsome profit from quinine making, when, without such tariff tax, it can now be bought, for fcl pur ounce. This is a fair sample of the opera tion and iniquity of a tariff for pro tection. 2. The unlimited coinage of sil ver. 8. Expansion of *' ? currency. There has been constant contrac tion of tho] currency since thc war. This has operated upon tho agri cultural classes, which are generally tho debtor classes. This policy has been especially bard upon the South ern farmers, who were left poor and in debt by the results of the war. The value of money increases in proportion, as its volume is decreased. So with every di munition of the cur rency, it took more, monoy and was harder to pay a debt contracted when tho currency was more inflated. The mont astonishing fact in nil his tory, to my mind, bas been thc rapid restoration of the material prosperity of Southern farmers in the fnco of this Inutile national legislation. So it has been tho constant policy of tho plutocrats'o enhance tho value of their money by diminishing its quantity. Now, against the evils resulting from contraction, I would opposo ox pansiou. Lot tho volume o? tho ourronoy bo enlarged to snob on nmount ns would givo to oaoh person tho highest pot' capita proportion compatible with a sound currency. There can be too much ns well as too little money. Tho right per capita amount can bo fixed. This would largely swell tho pro sent volume of thc ourroncy and would givo untold reliof to^ the agri cultural classes. 4. Tho abolition of national banks. In tho place of national bank note? let tho govornmont issue it? own notes in sufficient quantity, taken in conncotion with tho present volume of thc ourronoy, to furnish ample mouoy to do tho business of this groat country. ?. Govornmont ownership of rail ways, steamship lines, express com panies, telegraph lines, and all other but'i'icss of " quasi-public nature. Lot them bo operated by tho govern ment ns cheaply as possible for tho public convenience and general wel fare The tax levied by transportation lines upon producers and consumers is immense. Tho amount wrung from thc people by common carriers, would bewilder tho common people, if it was just known. No wonder, wc have railroad magnates, with millions of money, who control legis latures and shape tho legislation of Congress 1 This great lax can be saved to tho people by govornmont ownership of these enterprises. The only diffi culty in the way is, can thc govern ment do these things? If it can transport, as it now does, the mails, it can carry all our products. If it can transport, as it now does, dry goods through thc post ofiico in small quantities for the people, it can own railways, and carry merchandise in bulk for the people. If it transports money by virtue of its money order system, it can transport all express matter. This is such a gigantic scheme that it cannot be treated in the space of a letter. I will only add that it was embraced in thc St. Louis platform of tho Alliance, and has not pro voked much discussion. fi. "The Sub-Treasury plan." Not in all details, not literally, as em braced in either the Senate or the House bill, but a measure providing for financial aid to farmers at harvest time, so that they will not be forced to throw their entire crops upon the market all at once at a depreciated price, but at such times as to enable the honest tillers of tho soil to se 3uro the fair market value thereof. It would bc silly to demand exact adherence to the present details of either of those measures. All that diould be asked is, that tho govern ment so aid tho farmers as to prevent speculators and gamblers from rob bing thom of their honest earnings. There needs must be an authority lodged in tho money-making power ind its willingness to come to the re- ? lief of the people at certain seasons md in certain crises. If not, gov- ? ornment fails in its chief function of furnishing protection to person and property. It is not enough that government should prevent the high waymen from forcibly robbing the citizen of his goods and chattels. This was sufficient in the rude ages, ; and when there was little complexity in social affairs. Now we arc envi roned by greatly complicated circum stances. Hobbing is not now ef fected by force. It is accomplished by fraud. Wheat kings, and corn kings, and cotton kings, and railroad kings can combine, can aggregate capital, and, knowing thc times of harvests, can plan to run down prices, and thus as successfully deprive the farmer of his fair earnings, as if done by highwaymen. There'aro two remedies. One is to punish those who combine to run down prices, and to prevent tho pur chase of large quantities of produce or merchandise by any one save for his own consumption or for sale to customers who buy at retail for their own consumption. Tho other remedy is to put far mers in possession of thc moans of fighting those who conspiro to injure and to rob them. One way to do this is to let the government store agricultural products, not of a per ishable nature, and advance money thereon to the owners who were the producers. Provision should be made for monthly sales of products so stored, so that each crop would bo put on tho market for consumption in thc run ol' a year. I have never entertained any doubt as to tho constitutionality of this measure. I have soon no particular provision of tho constitution cited to show that this scheme is unconstitu tional. If this plan is unconstitu tional, much that the National Gov ernment does is unconstitutional. If it is constitutional for tho govern ment to issue silver certificates upon tho deposit of silver bullion, or silver coin, or to issue bank notes upon thc deposit of govornmont lannis by national banks, then, surely, it is constitutional for tho government to issue its notes based upon tho deposit of other products. There can bo no difference in principio. Silver bullion is not moro sacred tb un cotton. ?w .mi i > ? MM<-iwwiiI ?ovornr.Vcnt bonds ave not moro immaculate than wheat. But, HU nu' will domniid, whore is tho warrant in tho constitution for such a plan ? Congress has tho general power to legislato for tho general welfare. Moro especially Congress has the powor to moko and issuo money. It cat? make it of any thing, and base it on any product of tho minos or fields. It omi mnko its money legal tender in payment of public or private demands. It cer tainly has the powor to issuo monoy after it has made it, and ono way of issuing it is to advanco it upon pro ducts stored with it. So in its powor to make and issuo money is Congress' specific warrant to enact this plan. The only question which has har rassed inc and given mo troublo, is this ono : Is the "sitb-troaBury plan" practical, wise and reasonably calcu lated to nccomplitdi the end in view ? Will it accomplish good? Will it bring relief to thc farmer? Always anxious to do all in my powor to aid and abet tho agricultu ral masses, -1 was sorely distressed lest the scheme, selected and pro mulgated by them, was unwise, im practical, and destined to be pro ductive of more harm than good. At first, and before mature reflec tion on the subject, I deemed tho plan unwise and chi' torical. Upon full and careful consideration, with an honest purpose to arrive at a just solution, I have come to the conclu sion that it will accomplish thc end in view, to-wit: The improvement of thc condition of thc farmer. If individuals can stove the products of tho farm, make advances thereon to nearly the full value of the goods so stored, making big charges therofor; and thus permit thc producers to hold their cotton, corn, wheat, to bacco, etc., the government can cer tainly do the same by a system of warehouses and competent officials, at low cost to the tillers of the soil and with safety to tho government. The nation can command as good business talent as the individual. If the individual can store products and make advances thereon to the own ers, so that the latter can hold the same with safety, then the govern ment can do thc same thing. By the government storing the products of labor; and advancing to thc farmer thereon, the crops will bc thrown on th. market just as they arc needed, and fair prices will be obtained. This plan means death to artificial prices. To prevent tho farmers from creat ing a monopoly of breadstuffs and other necessaries of life, by storing them in government warehouses, provision should be made for periodi cal sales of such products so stored. I would suggest monthly sales. This plan will not injure others. Whatever blesses the farmer, will bless any other honest calling and industry. I havo long seen that the ultimate great conflict in this government will be between the money power ?md tho masses. It behooves every patriot to gird himself for this great light. We must either put down thc monoy power or bo reduced to serfs by it. Lastly, an honest and economical administration of the affairs of the government, with honest civil service. ? hat! no iden, of writing to such length when I began this letter.

Not content with their | situation, they begin to look for a fairer and better land as soon as they arrive at manhood. Thc old farm is left behind for a cattle ranch, an orange grove, a cotton plantation, a great wheat farm, or for the factory or store in the great cities, and the happiness and comfort of early life on tho farm is for awhile forgotten. But the chances are that tho young i man will sec his mistako sooner or later, and heartily wish himself back on the old homestead. No class of men should become so attached to thc land that constitutes their homo, as the farmer, for he not only lives upon it, but from it. Food and drink come to him from it and he learns to read each foot of its surface ns other men learn to read a book. His chil dren are born upon it and there grow up to manhood and strength and the nourishment of their bodies from it, so that they verily partako of thc soil and it becomes a part of them.
