BEWARE!

Our friend must look out for the
tricks of the enemy. The republican
politicians say to the republi can voters:
-"Donnelly has no show, you are
simply giving half a vote for Wilder
when you vote for him." The demo-
cratic politicians say to the democratic
voters. What is the use of voting for
Donnelly? He has no possibility of
election. \ vote for him is half vote
tor Strait
Thus are both working together 10
keep their: party lines in tact. The
truth is the republicans tear US more
than they o Wilder and the democrats
know that we are the only candidate
likely To defeat Strait.
We say to our friends. that we will be
elected over both Strait and Wilder il

finance. The currency of country is
the likelihood of its industry-the great
bearer and equalizer of nutrition to the
various members OF the body poEtic. 1t
is easy to determine its action to some
one part of the body, thereby depriving
either parts of their Just proportion OF
austenance. That is just what the finan-
.cial legislation OF the country is doing.
Our experience with Democratic house
has taught us that the Democrats are
just as unreliable as the Republicans on
this great question.
But men need this lesson impressed
on them. Party education is strong,
and men do not readily escape from its
influence. They will vote for party long
after they have lost confidence in their
leaders They should be made to see
the folly of such course, and that it is
no sin, but the highest duty of a true
citizen to desert party the moment party
deserts the true interests of that which
makes this or any country, its industry.
70 this end, Anti>Monopolists and In
dependents should organize clubs in
every school district and hamlet, and
have meetings and secure able speakers,
to present these points clearly before the
minds of all voters.-Record and Union,

MEN AGAINST MONEY.

The conflict of men with their would
be masters is an old one and it is ire
pressible. In Rome it was plebs against
the patricians; during the middle ages
of citizens against the feudal barons,
and later against the priests; in all civ
ilized nations. OF workmen against their
employers. The methods of enslave-
ment have been various-Of resistance
quite as diverse. Against the military
rule of the Roman aristocrats, and
against the feudal tax-gathers it was
armed resistance; against priestly do
minion the protest of martyrdom against
the extortions of combined employers,
combined, self>sacriicing refusal to
work.
The conflict goes on without end,
but it changes form and different
weapons are used alike in attack and
defence Now and here it is the tax
eaters against the x-payers, the cap
italists against the laborers, the ring
masters against the people, the thieves
against honest men, The weapons Of
attack are legal weapons, and the bonds
sought to be imposed legal bonds. Ii is
not a brutal attack like that OF the old
barons. 1t is a gentlemanlv. but q
most insideouS attack. conducted by
that most adroit but successful class Of
men, the attorneys, in the interests Of
themselves and their wealthy employers.
1t is carried on in the most courteous
manner. but the object sought is to get
us to slip the letters on our own
wrists. The masters will not use force
but they will keep the key. Persuation
is used with all a law yers arts, but the
bonds have the strength of steel and
the weight of lead. The courts, the
legislatures all the appliances of gov
ernment are in the hands of the lawyers
and all are used for-not for our protec-
tion-but our enslavement. and the
crushing power OF combined wealth is
brought to bear on US.
In all nations and in all ages the con-
flict has gone on. In all nations and
in all ages it will 90 on-the strong
against the week. the rich against the
poor, the learned against the ignorant.
and the resistance will be no less con-
tinued and no less determined. We
have risen far; We shall rise yet higher
but we must remember that freedom
comes only by eternal vigilance.

the disloyal character Of the toast to
which Judge Wilder responded, and
while the traitorous utterances of his
predecessors we're still ringing in his
ears, he got up. not as loyal union

After the meeting we adjourned to the
court house where found my good old
friends, Charles Porter Of Lamberton
w. II. Hawks of Snndown; and last, but
by no means least, that true man, Till
