Experience has proved the fact thst no

and farmers have now but little difficulty all

Many farmers have been annoyed when

4 NOVEL PROPOSITION.

Il
Our old friend Samuel Sinnett, of
Muscatine, Iowa, writes to the Kansas
Farmer in favor of the issue of green
backs to the people in loans on real es-
tate security at = low rate OF interest.
We present an extract giving his line OF
argument.

like that Of the bee, adds honey and wealth to
the coumsn hoard, the banker is curse,

ffuencs. But the question will arise, lhow
can men obtain the necessary money TO carry
on the business Of the nation say from the
nation itself direct. The farmer has as good q
right to the national credit-that IS, based on
his property-as the national banker. Now,
we're there national loan offices established IN
evsry townywherea national bank Is, where
the farmer, manufacturer, mechanic, ETC., etc
could obtain this money they would require

"grab" unless they could .sgrab" also.
So the bill passed and was signed: But
the people compelled its repeal as far as
possible, the presidents salary not being
respectable during his term. So he
beat his co conspirators after all he won.
And when Congress passed bill to re-
store the old salary for his successors,
as they had been forced to restore their
own he vetoed it! And now when the
House bill for appropriations names only
$25, 900 for the presidents pay the Sem
ate object; thus endorsing that corrupt
and most corrupting 'sgrab" at the
treasury. The influence will be felt in
official extravaganza throughout the
government. Fashion and ''respecta>
bility will require it, and the temptation
be increased to steal swindle or in some
way get the necessary funds. So cor
ruption will go on, and this is the ''econ~
omy" and ssreform" promised the people.
And even the old corrupt franking
privilege by members of Congress,
which, after long struggle the country
throws off our Republican, economical
reform" Senate has voted to restore!
The Democratic House alone will pro-
tect the country from that "grab" at the
treasury, simply for political and per-
sonal purposes Can you inform your
readers how our members OF Congress
act on these responsible measures?
Party papers carefully keep such infor-
nation from the pubhc.
The recent disclosures respecting Mr..
Dunnelrs electioneering operations are
of great value in teaching the people why
members of Congress want SO large pay
It is to make the national treasury pay
the cost of their own election and run
the party. The pretence of cost of living
in Washington is all a sham and cheat.
Every informed man knows that the best
men there live on 500 month; and
they are there but seven months in two
years, for which they receive now $4,000

THE STARVING MINARS.

The Catholic Standard of Philadel-
phia contains the following statement:
Sad accounts continue to reach US Of
the destitute condition of the miners and
iaborers of the Anthracite coal regions.
Thousands are out of employment with
no prospect of regular work in the future.
Thousands of others have work for the
time being. but no prospect of its regular
continuance and for the work they are
doing, dangerous, and severe, they are
receiving only Sc and $S per week. In
ether instances we hear of men working
ter sixty cents day. Many OF these
men have wives and children; and famis
lies of six or eight persons must livei on
these scanty wages: Where some of
the children are boys they must go into
the mines or the breakers, in order to
exc out their fathers wages and keep of
starvation. If these children could be
sent to school they would not be admit
ted for want of sufficient clothing to cover
THAR nakcdness. In many instances the
ONLY instruction they receive is what is
impaired to them in the evening by a
clergyman or other person who goes
around from place to place to teach them
the catechism
They cannot 60 to chnrch for the same
reason that they could not go to school
the want Of clothing.
A. for the families of those ;who have
no work, they, of course, are in still
worse condition. They have exhausted

had stored up, and sheer starvation now
stares them in the face.
