The demand for American grain in Europe is greater than it has ever been, and from all indications it ap pears that i‘ will continue to Ik* called for in increasing quantities. Southern farmers ought to take warning in time and sow plenty ot ; oats for their stock, and also put a few acres of their best land in wheat, for their own use. This is the only true! solution of the problem of the over production of cotton, ami just i s! s(K>n as our farmers fully determine i to raise nil their supplies at home, there will be nothing heard about too much cotton. No farmer can be truly independent who depends on another section for things that he can raise more cheaply at home, liaise your own provisions, and where'er possible, and in most cases it can lx* done, jour stock also, and you will soon have the West at your feet, and then force the repeal of the McKinley Tariff. This is the kind of sub-treasury you want, and the only one that will Ik* of any lK*iu*tit. Of course a great many farmers make and is disastrous to every productive and necessary business pursuit, and beneficial to the exploiter alone, the necessity is that fluctuations in the volume of money during different seasons of the year Ik* stopped. The fluctuation in the volume of money reacts the most unfavorably upon agriculture, Ix-came its products, wheat or corn, are the distn.bing influence that produce the contrac tion, and therefore their prices art* most effected, and because agricul ture is a seller during the season in whice prices are depressed, and a buyer during the season in which prices are at their highest. This is a direct discrimination against agri culture equal to the tluetation in price. This discrimination is at least 40 per cent, but from the cen sus re|Mirts it can safely be put down more than 40 per cent. The average increase of wealth for ten years is said to be 45 per cent and the aver is offered as The auxilliaryl volume necessan to be furnished by the government to prevent the regu lar nnutiul contraction should Ik* a representative currency based iiihmi the most potential form of wealth and redeemable on demand.

Kditok Hkkamk The argument presented 1h*1ow is practically the same used by Col. E. T. Stackhouse in a sjwech la-fore the County Alliance of Darlington more than 18 months ago. It is strength ened, however, by more recent events, the action of the Secretary of the Treasury last fall and the report of the last census, which are referred to. In its present shape it is extensively published by Alliance papers North and South, East ami West. A concise and systematic maimer of treating this subject is to divide it into three parts, and consider separately, the necessity for, princi ples of, and the details of the plan. First. The necessity for the sub- treasury plan is found in the great tv, industry and frugality has Ik*cu equal to that of the average in other occupations this must represent the measure of the inequality under which he lalmrs. Here, then, is the necessity for the suit-treasury, for the purpose of preventing the fluctu ation in the volume of money which is attended with fluctuations in prices that are detrimental to all pursuit* except the exploiter. Second. The principle of the sub- treasury is that an auxiliary or sup plemental volume of money should be brought into circulation by the government in times of scarcity, so as to supply the delici ■ncy and pre vent sudden and violent eon tract ions with their sequent effect IIJkiii prices. This is the only principle there is in the sub-treasury plan: all thelmlanee is detail. The great object is to pre vent wheat and cotton from being a disturbing influence in the markets of the country by contracting the volume -of money and depressing uuitiiul fluctuation in the relative volume of money in circulation at; prices so as to produce over 40 )x*r this time, Mild in the fact, that such fluctuation is thedirect and unavoid able result of the present timmcial system. ruder the policy of a practically fixed uumlKT of dollars for the gross circulating medium throughout the cent discrimination against ugricul-j tun* and nearly as much against commerce and manufacture. He. who opposes this principle must mho- ] tl,tw T u ^ "‘! h thv farnK ’ 1 ' cute the present system which is here shown to be a svstem of class which the purchasing )Miwer of a dollar is made manv times greater tlian that o' foreign gold, if, in order to make this effective, it Ixtoiiics ne cessary to warehouse these products and lend the auxilliary volume of money, there is no direct Iwnefitto. either party from these purely inci dental ojierations. There is no Ik-iic- lit to the farmer from warehousing: or money Imrrowing as long as he pays what it costs to do those things; it is an even exchange of services be tween him and the government, pure eo-o]K*ration, an eminently democrat-' it* function of government. True he may lx* incidentally Ix-netitted lic-i cause he had no warehouse, but the plan is not res]Kmsible for that. Ai man may exchange a horse for a piece of land, and the exchange of! value may Ik* exactly equal, and still | I he may Ik* vastly beuefltted because; he had nothing to feed the horse. Incidental Ix'iietits will flow to the 1 merchant, the professional man and ; the artisan from the vast increase of l<K*al business and manufacturing iand local distribution of money in times of scarcity that will benefit all It is true that the farmer will receive a' Item-fit that no others will, but it is May sound well to the Philosopher, tint “HUSTLE OR GET LEFT” Has a truer ring to the buying public this season.
