Rein1 Neighl0rly.

He was small boy with dirt on his
nose and faded straw hat on his head,
and feet SO long unwashed that it was
hard to tell where his toe nails were To-
Gated. He walked boldly up the steps,
pulled the bell, and when the lady came
to the door he said:
"Say, can You lend ma your telephone
for a few minits?'
"Why, / can't !" she gasped ont.
"Well bring it back in half an hour. !"
"But can't lend it, child. You don't
seem to know what telephone is. Who
are your"
I've live around the corner-iust
moved in. and we want to be neighborly.
/ tried to borrow your wheelbarrow and
shovel, but your boy wouldn't lend 'em,
and our hired girl has been over to Dor

We kinder thought we might borrow
your telephone or something and ma
would bring it back and get chance to
see your style, and ask you to run right
in with your old clothes on !'-Detroit

The Real Mission Of the Piano

A mystery las been solved. A citizen
.. the world has found out what is the
purpose Of the modern piano located in
the mo iern parlor. To be played ON !?
What stale and rreposterous suggts-
ion. What snperlatiye nonsense. The
mission Of the piano is two fold; it
is To impart dignity and stateliness to
the household, but chiefly it IS to az
ford place for young lady to sit, idly
turning over the leaves of The bi,ckIird
b ok while young man hangs Imply
over to whisper into her car that he is
growing gradually weaker, hut still
lives. There is no better place for mat
rimonial blow Oh the head. There is an
ec.tatic rapture in hanging over piano
i'll good form that no young woman can
resist. II thrills, eaectrifies and oxil-
iz,s. Ten minutes OF such magnetic
disturbance viii overthrow tho utmost
prejudice OF objection, aud twenty min.
iiss is equal to a welding ring aud mar
riage settlement. Ii an ambitious young
woman can secure the presence OF r.

him there until she has ramblel through

big piece Of her Cake; and the Wolf
p r:sh,d miserablv of indigestion before

PLATFORM OF PRINCIPLES
OF the National GrccnbnCk LabC
Party. Adopted at hes MOImcs, ISIS.

or the National Grccnbnck- Labor
Party, Adopted at Des MOimcs, 1852.
/. That VIC reaffirm the principles OF our
party ~ declared ct our convention in 1881.
2. We are opposed 10 the monopoly Of money
through tho notwithstanding system, and favor
the General Government issuing all currency,
making it full legal TENDER and keeping its
volume uniform with the requirements OF In
crcasing business and population.
3. We are opposed to all refunding OF the
tnterest-bearing national debt, which places it
beyond the power OF the Government to pay at
will and We demand that said debt be paid a.
rapidly ~ possible.
4. We favor the unlimited coinagc Of gold
and silver on equal terms.
5. We are opposed to tho present system OF
allowing railroad and telegraph monopolie, to
determine the rates for transporting persons or
property over railroads, or for the nse Of telo-
graphs, and hold that all corporations created
by law should be governed by law in tho inter-
est of the people, and we regard the Iowa Rail-
road Commission as 4 wlful and intentional
hindrance TO that end.
s. We are opposed to the monopoly OF land,
and demand that oil public lands, including
those forfeited by non. compliance with law,
shall be held for actual settlers.
7. We hold that the representatives Of labor
have the right to combine to protect all their
constitutional rights, and that they should be
protected by law III tho exercise OF that right.
3. That our patent laws for tho granting
patents should be 30 amended - to prevent
courts from assessing damages against limo
cent purchasers, who in open market purchase
any pateut article which may be an infringe
ment on any other patent
3. We are opposed to all monopoles and arc
in favor Of equal rights, equal burdens, equal
taxation, and equal benefits for all, with spe-
cial privileges for none, aud We hold that is the
best government wherein IN injury to one il
the concern OF all"
10. We favor = revision Of the tarin laws in
the interest Of American labor, and not in the
interest OF rich corporations and monopolies.
IL. We urge upon all anti-monopolists Of this
State to consider the utter hopelessness Of OBJ
tanning the relief by them demanded at tho
hands Of either Or the old parties, aud request
them to unite with US 10 assist in gaining these
ends, and We pledge them to make that guess
ton one Of great prominence, aud that our
candidates shall earnestly labor to secure this
desired reform.

The Bessemer Steel Monopoly.

The right to manufacture Bessemer
steel in the United States is owned and
exercised by The Bessemer Steel Com
pany, limited" which is a consolidation
Of former organizations and owners Of
various patents, both foreign and Ameri-
can. including the Bessemer and Kelley
patents. Although the Bessemer patent
has run out, still all later improvements
aud inventions governing this process
and protected by patents have been
bought and are now owned by this same
company. Under the above monopoly
thirteen works were running, and two
additional ones were erected in 1881.
The monopolists owning these patents
were, by virtue OF this owner
snip, enabled to get all that the
tariff allowed them to take-that il,
the price of the foreign articles,
plus duties and charges for railroad
and ocean freight, commission charges
aud inland transportation-on the aver
age 81 a ton. the duty is specific
dnty-s2s ton; consequently now,
after fifteen years Of its existence, pro-
portionately thrice as high as at the time
when the tariff charge was enacted, the
prices Of foreign rails having come down
to about third Of their original cost.
Our prices simply had to follow English
prices in their decline. Our steel men
did not do anything more than yield to
the inevitable. Their monopoly enabled
the Bessemer steel makers to regulate
the supply SO as to make the tariff pay
them hugely. The Vulcan Steel Works,
at st. Louis, are reported to have $780,
600 during the hard times from the COM
biuations as q bonus for not running
their works. Il is not mentioned that
the workingmen received any wages
during the time Of enforced idleness. -

A Point Well Made.

Mr.. Schilling. of Milwaukee, in his
short talk before the Greenbackers OF
this city Wednesday night, made very
nice point Tor the consideration Of spe-
cie-basis advocates.
He held ont silver dollar and in
qnired where the metal came from of
which it was made, and answered. from
the mine. Mines owned by the United
States? Oh, no! How then did the
Government get the metal ont of which
this silver dollar was made ? 1t issued
bonds for it. The bonds, he said. were
paper, with nice pictures on them, some
thing like greenbacks.
After the bonds were thus issued for
the silver ard it had been coined into
dollars, it was found the dollars were
cumbersome in large amounts and not
suitable for effecting changes. Then the
Government said it would give a certii-
cate that should be legal tender, and for
all purposes money, If the holder Of ten
of these silver dollars would deposit them
in the treasury.
So at last we have paper promises
called silver certificates, based on silver
coined dollars, based on paper promises
called bonds.
Mr.. Schilling thus ingeniously traced
our money to the basis Of the public
credit and upset the idea Of coin basis.
He asks why it would not have been
better to have issued a paper dollar in
the first place. Rapids Leader

The Crack Of the Slave Drivers Whip.

The agitators who encourage strikes
and stir up discomfort among working
men should be seized by the law and
dealt with for malicious mischief. La
borers have not nearly as much reason
for complaint as the d-bags OF their
orders pretend and urge. Workingmen
in this country get from three to four
times what 10 paid to corresponding Ia
borers in other countries. while the
prices Of living are not bit higher. For
example, mechanics in Germany get
about $3.50 week builders, $3.50
shoemakers, $500; smiths, $3.50, etc,
and the condition is little better else
where. The trouble in this country Is
that too much license is allowed to sedi-
tious and ignorant or knayish public
speakers. II breeders OF riot were more
effectively dealt with riots would be
fewer.-Editorial in Chicago Daily In.
