Within the last three years the gov ernment has issued 4 per cent bonds to the enormous amount of $202,000,000. Never before, in the history of the world, has any nation placed such a debt upon its people in times of peace. 'onscrvativo estimates place the bond issues of coming years at at least SIOO,- uoo,ooo annually, probably double that amount. How long the government ■•an stand such a financial policy cannot be answered oIT-hand, but already its eject is felt in every corner of our coun try. To maintain a reserve of $100,000,000 in gold in the treasury these bonds must be issued as soon as the reserve drops iielow the hundred-million mark. That is the only method which our financiers can devise to replenish the treasury. The gold received for the bonds come from the hanking houses of the country, who assume a patriotic attitude in fur nishing the same, and the credit ••f the nation is then placed above ••suspicion." Quietly, then, those same patriotic hankers begin presenting treasury notes, and all other kinds of representative money which comes into their posses sion, to the treasury and demand that they be redeemed. All United States money, whether actual or so-called, is redeemable in gold only, gold alone being recognized by the government as The logical consequence follows. The irokl reserve in the treasury dwindles down, down, down, until it goes below the hundred-million mark. Then a hue , aud cry i> raised that the credit of the LToverinent is in danger. Again the Shy locks of America and Europe benov • lently offer to exchange for bonds the gold which a short time previous they withdrew from the government vaults. Ih>nds again are issued, and another mortgage is placed upon posterity. Again the notes are presented for re demption, and so ou it will continue until the molded interests of the world Wave America bound hand and foot, then they can throw off their patriotic mask and become, not literally, but in reality, the dictators of the United States government, as they now dictate in several European countries. Who Are the I'utrioLs? The cyclone of abusive epithets is still being hurled at t he Democratic platform. Its builders are not only "lunatics," •idiots," "madmen," "insane foils," ; "cranks/" "robbers," "rcpudiationists," ! "criminals" and a good deal else, but, i most unkind cut of all, they are un ! patriotic. A grave charge truly; not one I lo be lightly advanced against an in dividual, much less against a large par i i\. and hardly at all against a nation. Who are the accused and accusers? It is beyond all question that the element I .if our people most keenly interested in t he success of the free-silver movement ! are the millions who ask a living from their mother, the land. She is agon- I 'Ton# mother and they have good reason ; to work for her and love her, but in ! >pit.e of her fruitfulness and their toil there are curses upon her and upon I them, and one curse is a fraudulent I money system. j Does anybody pretend that the labor ers and farmers of America, not isolat ; ed cases, but as a class, have received i their just reward? Does anybody believe that this country can be happy and prosperous while half its people are banging over the abyss of bankruptcy? Well, these are the people who are sup ! posed to be not only criminally insane, : | but dishonest and unpatriotic, and their i | accusers are the money lending tribe i ! whoso only excuse for existence is the j i poverty of their fellows. As the page of history, in this or any •t.lier nation, past or present, has not yecßeen written which records the pa riot isi, ~f money traffickers, they should surely in 11,(. last to accuse the toiling millions of a 'sick of patriotism. I Not Follow Their Loiul. The leaders of the Democracy in Philadelphia, quite a number of whom have been reported as bolters, should know by this time that the country Democracy, as the Demociits outside the Quaker City are called, do ot follow their lead. This has been demon- ■ st,rated so often that any one tut a Dhiladel pbia Democrat would hive known it long ago, and it must ho u little galling to them to learn, and they are learning it in this campaign, that country Democrats have think-tanks of their own and are capable of choosing their way without instructions from the metropolis. LIVE QUESTIONS. A Series of Articles Contributed by Advuuced Tlilnkers. CO-OPERATION A FACTOR IN SOCIAL REFORM. The direction In which I look for the great est Improvement In social economy Is the sup pression of the vast number of middlemen who share among themselves HO largo a proportion of the produce of the country, while the serv ices they render, though Indispensable, might, be us well and better performed by a tenth part of tlior number.—J. 8. Mill. There is, in my opinion, no greater social marvel than the manner in which these socie ties (co-operative) flourish, combined with a consideration of the soundness of the basis on which they are built.—W. E. Gladstone. When a few workingnien who had failed in a strike for an increase in wages met and decided upon co-opera tion as a more effectual remedy and one better fitted to secure to the workers the full enjoyment of the wealth they created, the first step in "practical" so cial reform was taken. The terra prac tical is hero used to denote the differ ence which has always existed and still exists between the two classes of social reformers—namely, those who advocate state ownership of the means of produc /r£/v, JOIIN SAMUEL, tion and distribution, and those who hold that certain soeiul evils—the evil of poverty, for instance—may be most speedily and effectually abolished by united individual effort. The founders of the Rochdale system of 00-operation were socialists, but of that school which taught that those evils which affected them in their social, domestic and industrial relations, and which were in their power to remove, they ought to remove without waiting for or expecting aid from the state. How sound and correct were their views upon the subject before experience furnished the pr<xf appears in the result. THE ROCHDALE EQUITABLE PI6NKEKs' SOCIETY—ITS ORIGIN AND PROGRESS. As already stated, the founders of the co-operative system, failing in the strike, formulated the following pro gramme as bettor calculated to ac complish the objiict aimed at— the improvement of their financial, domestic and social position. First, they would open a store for the supply of ordinary household requirements; second, employ surplus profits of busi ness in erecting moro comfortable homes for members; third, fiuding employ ment for members when idle—in short, to readjustee commercial and indus trial machinery of society. Many months were consumed, such was their extreme poverty, in raising, by the weekly contribution of 4 cents, the small capital of $l4O, with which they commenced business. With 28 members and this amount of capital a store was opened Dee. 21, 1844. THE ECONOMIC BASIS OF CO-OPERATION. FIXED RATE OF INTEREST ON CAPITAL. PROFITS, IN THE STORE, TO THE CON SUMER ; IN THE WORKSHOP,TO THE PRO DUCER. In his interesting history of the Roch dale pioneers Mr. George Jacob llol yoako says, "The founders of the so ciety were opposed to capital absorbing all profit arising from trade, and to hit upon a plan that should give propor tionally the gain to the persons who make it was u problem they had to solve." After some discussion the plan of di viding profits on purchases was adopted. Five per ceut. per annum wus allotted to capital. The remaining profits, after providing for expense of management, depreciation and other charges, less 2f£ per cent for educational purposes, were divided quarterly umong purchasers in proportion to each one's trade at the store. The educational feature will be more fully noticed presently. When Mr. Gladstone made the speech in parliament in 1804, un extract from which is prefixed to this paper, the Rochdale society was Hearing the close of the twentieth year of its operations. The society hud grown during those 20 years from 28 members to 4,747, with an increase in capital from *l4O to $310,525. Its sales tin' first year,amount ing to $3,550, with a profit of sllO, in 18(14 had reached $874,655, with profits amounting to $115,585. In addition to the store the society hud, during those 20 years, entered into several linos of production. At tin• very time when, as Wendell Phillijis said, "The two halves of this nation were in deadly conflict," the Rochdale pioneers had in operutiou a corn mill,two cotton mills and a land and building society. Their first invest ment in the latter enterprise was SIOO,- 000 in land on which to build homes for its members. The society's investment in the two Cotton mills exceeded $400,- 000, and the equipment of these mills in machinery, sanitation, etc., was pro nounced equal to anything of the kind in the country. The number of em ployees in these enterprises, including the store, at this time ran up into the hundreds. This was the way these pov erty stricken weavers, working for 50 'cnts a day, proposed to furnish a prac tical demonstration of the tiresome plat itude too frequently heard from work ingnien that "labor creates all wealth." The pioneers showed that tlicy not only knew how to create wealth, but how to distribute it equitably after it was cro ated, uiul the 500 flourishing stores in existence .at that time, pronounced by Mr. Gladstone u "social marvel," were the most convincing proof to liiui of that "extraordinary intelligence and self acting power" ho said they dis played in tbc-ir efforts to emancipate themselves from their degraded condi tion. The testimony of the committee of management at the close of 1804, in view of flic results achieved, is worthy of study. "Twenty years have now passed away Biuco a few workingmcii in Rochdale, despairing of success in a strike against giant capital for an advance of wages, resolved to form a co-operative society the objects of which were the improve ment of thier social and domestic con dition. That co-operation is superior to strikes for accomplishing their objects few will dispute. That it is more con ducive* to tho happiness of the greatest number than competition there is no question. That it will ultimately prove the salvation of the laboring class there is little doubt. If we take a retrospec tive glance at the success of the past 20 years, it is indeed gratifying and cheer ing. When we consider that the aggre gate profits of tho society alone amount to $(133,000, we must be satisfied that tho social and domestic condition of its ineniliers are improved, put, much as has been done, there still domains much to do. The original programme is not finished. Tho next 20 years may see co operation developed in higher forms and the laboring class elevated to a po sition of independence and happiness never before enjoyed." At the close of its jubilee year, De cember, 1804, the society had an en rolled membership of 12,5)14, with a share capital of $1,755,05)0, sales for the year $1,425,715 and profits amount ing to $243,585. During these 50 years the business done amounted t0540,048,- 350 and had returned in dividends to members $5,850,000. In addition to these financial benefits, the society had found steady employment for hundreds of its members, and its annual payment in wages was about $75,000. For many years tho society had made annual grants to the charitable institutions of its own and other towns of hundreds of dollars. EDUCATION, THE CROWNING GLORY OF THE PIONEERS. It was the intense interest in educa tion that constituted the distinguishing feature of the Rochdale system of co operation. Nor did they wait until they were "well off" to put this part of their scheme into effect. As the law did not at the time permit the appropriation of profits made in business to any other purpose than the payment of dividends thereon, the pioneers commenced their educational work by voluntary contri butions. At tho closo of 1894 the circulating library contained 15,114 volumes and tho reference libraries 2,585 volumes, making a total of 17,099 volumes. Tho society has 20 newsrooms attached to as many branch stores for the conven ience of its members. During the win ter months lectures 011 exploration and scientific subjects arc given. 111 1873 the society introduced its art and science classes for the sons and daughters of its members, and able teachers were em ployed as instructors. Hundreds of youths of botli sexes who worked in mills, workshops and other occupations wero thus enabled to acquire the advantages of education not otherwise so easily ob tained and were better fitted and equip ped for the discharge of life's duties. It was to the importance of the education al work done by the pioneers that the Rev. Dr. Maclure, dean of Manchester, bore the strong testimony expressed in tho following extract from an address delivered by him at tin* celebration of tho thirty-fourth anniversary of tho Manchester and Salford Equitable so ciety, January, 1894. 111 tho course of his remarks tho dean said: "Long be fore a muddling or meddling department of tho Htate—tho science and art depart ment-—commenced to paddle its own canoe along the stream of educational progress the science and art classes of the Rochdale Equitable Pioneers' Co operative societies were in full course and wero doing a remarkable work, a work which was second to 110 other, and which he hoped would not be posned aside by any other combination either of technical schools or any other move ment. The Rochdulo society was also among the few societies of a limited li ability character which discovered that it had a soul to be saved. The charity of the Equitable pioneers was shown long beforo some other societies learned to open their pockets, and it led tho way by sending year by year a subscription toward tho funds of tho Rochdale in firmary. Tin* real principle of true co operation was the one embodied in the New Testament the principle of 'Looking not on every man 011 his own things, but alsooll the things of others.' They had an admirable illustration of co-operation in the carrying out of that great enterprise, tho ship canal. "When the history of this century comes to be read, it will be found that co-operation has clone much to bring the different classes of this great country into closer contact and into a truer bond if brotherhood." And ho urged those present to do all they could to promote that spirit of true paternal life which was, after all, the backbone of any true community. If they did this, whether by the co-operative movement or any other agency, "depend upon it they could rely upon the sympathy und co-operation of any man, whatever cloth ho wears, who loves his country, his fellow work man and liis God." JOHN SAMUEL. It is a stubborn fact tliat the masses fo the people of this country are not enamored with our present civil service system, and the evidence is multiplying oil every hand that there is a growing dissatisfaction with its workings and an ever increasing desire on the part of the people to substitute a system of really representative government for tho sham and fraud which we call a democratic, representative government. THE TWO PLATFORMS. Views of ii I'rofttHKor of Political Kcono iny on the Silver Issue. Tho Chicago platform 011 silver is most eloquent, tho substanco of its demand being that silver shall be treated exactly as gold is in the mints of tho United States. We have free coinage of gold. Whoever takes gold bullion to the mint can have it coined into live or ten-dollar pieces at tho standard fixed by law. and can c: r.'y ofT ids coins after paying tho cost of coinage. Or, to save him time, the mint will give him gold coin at once and take his gold bullion in exchange. Tho Chicago platform proposes that ex actly the same rule shall apply to silver, and whoever owns silver bars shall have the right to have them converted into standard dollars, at tin; ratio of count ing sixteen ounces of silver worth'one of gold. The government is simply to act as tiie agent of the owner of tho bullion, and to get a small percentage in return for use of its coining machinery. The Republicans say: "We also will be ready for this as soon as wo can get other countries to agree with us to do tho same. We do not think it safe or wise for us to do this without their co-opera tion, as we would bo undervaluing gold and overvaluing silver if we coined both freely at 10 to 1. in that case all experi ence showp that we would see our gold exported or hoarded, and as wo have between .$4ro,ooo,ooo and $000,000,000, we cannot afford such a frightful and sud den contraction of tho currency as this. It would bring on a panic. And as we alone, and unaided by other countries cannot bring silver back to its old rantio with gold, we would get a dollars worth less than any dollar we ever had in this country. As all debts would be payable in this new dollar, the change would amount to 'scaling' all the debts we owe either to our own countrymen or to for eigners. Of course, international bi metallism, if we had it, would also amount to a lowering of the value of the dollar, but this would be to a reasonable extent, and not to tho ruin or even t! 0 injury of the creditor class. Ameriacu creditors would suffer unduly severe losses under free coinage, and our credit abroad would be ruined." The Democratic case is to tills effect: "Our present situation is intolerable, and something must be done. We, too, would like to act in concert with other nations, but we son no prospect of that, so we must act alone. Many even of the news p.pers which support Mr. McKinley tell us there is not the smallest chance of an international agreement to restore bi metallism. The clause in the Republican platform about 'promoting' interna tional bimetallism they excuse as amounting to nothing. It certainly points out no way in which bimetallism is to 1 0 promoted by Mr. McKinley if he should be elected. What we propose is definite, and seeks the relief of the people from a monetary system which has doubled the weight of all debts in the last quarter of a century, and has crushed industries which enjoyed adequate protection, such as iron and silk, equally with those 011 which there lias been a great reduction of duties. "As to our losing our gold, it Is bound to go at any rate uudor the existing sys tem, and lias been going for years. Free coinage will not make it go faster, be cause our own silver will keep our mints busy at coinage, and foreigners cannot exchanged their bullion silver or silver coingae, as was done in 1835, when tho French bought up our undervalued sil ver by bringing their gold. "As to injury to the, creditor class, if we must choose betwben that and ruin to the far greater debtor class, we choose the less of two evils. Rut we do not ad mit that any such ruin will be effocttd. If our government really assumes the tadf of restoring the credit of silver, as it did not when it passed the (mutilated) Rhtnd law and the shilly-shally Sherman law, the result will be such a restoration of the credit of silver as will cause tl e two metals to draw near to each other again. This will make an international agreement both possible and inevitable." Such seems to me to be the cases that may be. made for both parties. It will be seen that both contain a large element of prophecy, especially that of the friends of silver. Rut it lias the merit of proposing deli 11 ito action to cure an evil which is very great indeed. The Republican platform neither shows an adequate sense of the evil, nor indicates how it is going to deal effectively with it. Rout. Eli. is Thompson. Denis ().
