7NE PEOPLE.

IL trick Of political demagoyues 10 lc
constantly rrating about the people as orpo.
eed 10 some imaginary enemies of the people.
II ia a stale attempt at hattering certain
classes in society, which only results in fos~
ser'ng inharmony and petty jealousies. He
who makes use Of it to further his own ends
proves himself not only mere political
huckster, bu, the worst enemy Of the party
to which he belongs. Such cowardly ap.
pcals to prejudice deserve the con,e npt ofcve
rv American.
II is glorious fact that every male ci,:-
zen in oar midst is the political equal O.
every other. The rich mans ballot counts
no more than the poor mans. There is nc
power which can compel either the poor or
nch. man to cast his ballot otherwise than in
accordance with his own pleasure. In this
respect, then, there is perfect equality among
the people, and political aristocrncy is i'm
possible hence, he who approaches the poo,
man and attempts to influence his vote by
rra,ing Of his love for the people and Of the
ambition Of his opponents to rule over and
rob the people, insults that mans intelligence
as an equal American citizen by the impli.
cation that he is capable of being suborned
contrary to his own judgment, to the pur-
poses Of others.
1t is only dehasing envy which causes a
man 10 hate reigebor because that neigh
boris possessed Of a little more property than
himself, or to hate class Of men becaase,
and only because. they may chance to be
wealthy. All classes are necessary to each
other. The capitalist cannot live without
the poor man, nor the poor man without the
capitalist. One cannot suffer without its af.
fecting the other. Hence he is an enemy 70
both who endeavors to sow dissentton be-
tween them,-to ex lite the prejuiices and
passions Of one against the other. No man
is fit to represent all classes who persistent
" decries any one Of them, nor is the man
who unjussly dccries any one class fit to rep
resent any other. lie is only an author Of
dissord and the worst enemy Of all.

Advertising, 10 be largely rcmunerative,
mustbe constant; unceasing. Some dealers
seem 10 think il enough to insert their cards
just previous to or during the periodical

merchants decide where to buy before they

maxim is eminently true in trade. Those
who are most in sight by means OF spacious

enjoy the pleasure OF contemplating them,
but they will not sell them.
