The knights of Labor yesterday asked
Coleman Brother, brewers and malt
sters, to sign an agreement which pro-
vides, among other things, that the firm
shall hire nothing but knights and use
nothing but fair material. The firm
refused, and fffty-live men in their en-

filled rapidly. This completes the cir

HOME PRODUCTION.

What q farmer raises and consumes
on his own place is of a fixed value to
him. a pound Of beef, a b,,slel of
wheat, a colt. Il peck of potatoes is
worth to him for his own use its value
as measured Ivy the amount of physi.
cal sustenance and comfort the several
articles will give him. The price Of
these articles in the worlds markets
to others make no difference in their
valCe to him. What he eats and uses
gives him so much life and comfort;
and wheat that will sell for two dol.
lars a busllel will make no more bread
than If it sold for twenty-five cents.
1t is this that makes the farmer so in.
dependent us compared with other
classes of producers, SO large u part of
his living comes to him direct without
the Intervention of the middle man.
Tie wage worker depends on others
for everything. Tie capitalist is no
better Off, the newspaper man gets up
with considerable help from others, :.
five cent newspaper, everything else
he buys or steals. The lawyer rarely
finds himself capable of defending or
prosecuting his private suits, and the
physician will call in another doctor
when lie is ILL. The steel rail maker
uses his own product only when he
takes Il journey. and the blacksmith is
independent only so far us lie uses his
own horse shoes or other iron work.
If the markets of the world were
closed, all factories stopped, and every
wheel stoml still. the farmer would
still live on in comparative comfort
while the world with its oilers and
workers would stLrvc around him.
When lard times in a measure does
stop the flow of money, when crowds
so through the cities crying for bread,
the farmer tills his soil in peace and
is well fed.
The moral Of this is that the more a
farmer produces for his own consulmp.
ton the less he need care for the tinan.
cial problems that are the every day
worriment Of the ordinary mortal, and
il this is true of the individual, why

THErH1Rp PARTY.

The third party movement in this
county is fatheretl by Il very respect.
able element. both in numbers and in
character. There is no doubt as to
the honesty of purpose or the wish for
the bettcrmcnt Of humanity. ard thus
far they have the symmtliics of u
very large number of voters who are
now attached by party ties to other
party organizations, and it is to this
latter class that the third party must
go for the strength that will lead to
success. The difficulties w!licl, lie in
the way of crystalizing abstract prin.
ciplcs into u party organization are
many. Right. in the abstract and
right. as exemplilied in the platform.
candidates and personcl Of Il party are
two different things.
Already, in the very inception of
tlis movement professional politicians
llavo put out their hands to seize the
helm and guide the ship into their
own snug harbors. That they had no
right to do this is true, but the fact is
that they were there and there was 10
way of ruling them ont, and what was
true ut the preliminary caucuscs is
likely to he true in an aggravated
form if Il future convention is called
either to endorse candidates nominal.
ell by other parties or to nominate
new ones. If u man claims to be IL
farmer and temperance man lie is Ger.
tainly eligible to vote at the third
party caucus. no matter if it is known
that lie and others like linn have lie.
liberately packed the caucus for the
purpose of nominating for county
office, men whose lives and principles
are in direct opposition to those of the
third party. If the third party con.
vcntion is called before the other con.
ventions and put ticket in the field
there is danger of antagonizing both
the other parties. And in case it
should be run us Il distinctive third
party with full machinery, candidates.
etc, local option would then depend
on the success oftle third party and its
candidates, with the possibility of the
jewel losing its brilliancy in the dullness
of its setting. At any rate its chances
would be only one in three if dependent
on a third party, instead of one in two if
run as single issue without the candi-
date attachment. For candidate for
office, the chance Of one in three is as
good as when only two parties are in the
field, for plurality elects, but question
like local option requires majority, So
that it would be possible under the third
party to elect officers pledged to carry
into effect law which might be defeat
ed ut the same election.
On the other hand, if the endorsing
convention is not called until after tl.e
others have met, then will come the
warping, twisting strain of the friends of
candidates already nominated, seeking
endorsement for their own favorites,
which would be q difficult strain for a
party so loosely constructed to stand
without rupture.
This article is not written in carping
spirit. Nearly all of these difficulties in
a greater or less degree are also present
in the regularly organized parties, hut
are there more easily guarded against as
party lines and party issues arc more
distinct.

TAXATION OF MORTGAGES,

The Alliance resolutions ut lIamil.
ton call for taxation of mortgages.
Notwithstanding that taxes have been
collected for thousands of years, vet it
is safe to say, no absolutely just
method of taxation has yet been dis.
covered; and while we may easily dis.
cover evil in the present method of
practically letting the money lender
go free, yet it may he better to suffer
the evils VIC know than to fly to others
that we are not acquainted with.
Capital in this new country is IL neces-
sity. Capital is, however, very eau.
tious and timid, and it bclooyes us to
lie careful of our treatment of it.
The question of taxation of foreign
mortgages is too extensive for II news.

Taxes to the extent of six or seven

that lie could not agree to do this he

We believe that the result of taxing

capital SO scarce that only the highest
rates would procure it. The true
