WHAT OTHERS SAY.

A writer in the Washington
Craftsman speaks of the nobility of
agriculture and of how all others are
dependent on the farmer for food.
Slowly, softly, friend. Surely you
don't understand political economy.
1t is the capitalist, not the farmer
on whom we are all dependent.
Nay, even the farmer is dependent
on the capitalist. Without him
neither land could be cultivated nor
machinery operated. Until capital
sets the wheels of industry in mo-
ton the fields must remain untitled
and all the factories silent. Per-
hapS the Craftsman will say that
the fields were titled and Labor per-
formed before there was such a
thing as capital. But to say this is
to put the crude unlettered knowl-
edge of the unscientific against the
fine spun theories of the schools. To
deny that the continuance of indus
try depends on the use of capital is
to reject the most cherished tenet of
the orthodox economists creed. 1t
may be common sense, but, 60 to!
Would you place common sense on a
par with learned scientific theories =?
-Canadlan Labor Retornaer.
1t sounds ''queer to the eye of a
critical man to observe labor papers,
reform papers, fighting away for
protection and all the trusts" and
yet with all the old colors and mot
toes to the fore. equal Rights"
Zone for All and All for Onew can
Injury to the Humblest is an Insult
to the Community" and so on and
so forth-those are all good in them
selves more or less. But equal
Rights for All" and special "Protec-
ton" for the capitalist, factory
owner, the mill owner, the coal
baron, the lumber millionaire
those do not seem to agree very well
together. They remind one of New
Jersey champagne-compoundedo OF
hard cider and turnip juice-more
"tizz" than nourishment. Hayes

The great problem now before
the civilized world is the Labor
question. Socialism is the solution,
and from the time that Socialism
begins its benign reign, new era Of
development and progress begins.
"But why do the Socialists pro-
pose to abolish the offices of Presi-
dent and Vice President and the
Senate? ?" For the same reason that
Americans abolished Monarchy and
the House of Lords, even while they
instituted equivalent nonsenslties.
Now that the campaign fever ex-
poses the "artful dodgers" and trick
sters in the labor organizations there
is chance for the honest minded
trades unionists to rid themselves of
the Jonahs. Overheard with them,
and clear the decks of traitors.
Every Socialist should ask his fell
low workers who have fallen in love
with the REPUBLICAN" or demo
cratic" party, how much of raise
in wages they expect on the success
of their favorite ticket. OF course,
we can't recommend betting, but
there's chance for safe bets or
bluffs, without takers.
''Let it be campaign of reason, "
says the Sun. The party the Sun
supports, as well as the other great"
party, is making a campaign of
Doodle. The Socialist Labor Party
will do as the San says, and its
newspapers will not do as the Sun
does in commencing reason and ad-
vocating the election of enemies of
democracy calling themselves demo-
Gratis, when they are anything but
democrats.
Among the supporters of that
squat caricature in the White House
are the armed murderers of Union
Labor Party voters in Arkansas; the
free trade democratic" wing of the
United Labor" Party; some fourth
rate democratic" politicians in the
Central Labor and several Trades
Unions, and the silk-stocking ode
mocracy," who will take whatever
financial benefit there is in the deal
having invested heavily in the pur-
chase of the previously mentioned
small fry.
Thomas B. Barry, of the National
Executive Board of the Knights OF
Labor, exposed the criminal extrava-
gance of that august body to large
audience in Cooper Union Hall,
New York, last Wednesday evening.
The WoRKMEN' ADVOCATE sounded
the warning years ago, not from a
knowledge of the individual charac-
teristics of "prominent" Knights,
but from a knowledge of the form OF
organization and the inexperlence of
the members at large. The labor
movement will be benefited by the
expose.

le.ying a tal.nce Of $1,000 On

hand.
Mr. F. B Chiffon of Pecos, In the alb
sence of John T. Elliott, the regular Sec
rotary, acted as secretary of the meeting
and read the report of Secretary Elliott,
which embodied his resignation, and
which also embodied in substance the
verbal reports hereinsfJe- given BY mem
bers OF the Committee, of the work that
had been done In different parts of the
stste. The resignation of Mr.. Elliott had
been accepted by the executive commit
tee. but he acted by request until this
meeting Of the state committee. After
the report Of the secretary was read,
Chsirmen Dsugherty said that here
tofore the action of the executive
committee hsd been all that could be ex-
pected; that money should be in banks
to meet all expenses before any debts
were created, snd suggested that II
every member of the state committee
WAS held responsible for the assessment
of his district the money would be raised.
Said he was ady to be responsible for
the amount assessed against his (the
SiXteenth) Senatorial district. Referring
to the plan of work in the movement, he
said he had been afraid OF helocsl organ
izstion plaD, but favored general state
management; when no exact amount was
expected of districts the result would
be inaction on the part of the people; the
best plan would be to let the people know
how much money was expected Of them,
snd he believed it would be forthcoming.
He thought the executive committee
should have 100000 at their command,
but others were of the opinion that 5000
from esch senatorial district wss enough.
This amount $4,000, he said, was ready
from his district.
IN EXPERIENCE MEETING.
Every one wanted information and no
one knew just what to expect, and on
motion an experience meeting was made
and entered into, where each member
gave history of what had been done in
his district, with the following result:

FLowERY HIMSELF.

Mr.. Barry SHE'D his caster into the ring
and dared Any proud Templsr to combat.
He was member of the executive com
mittee, and had heard with no pleasant
feelings the criticisms that were heaped
upon that body. 1t was charged that
the secretary had been derelict. Ths
committee had accepted the secretary's
resignation. The state committee was
responsible for his selection and election.
Mistakes had been made. The commit
tee ordered ten page pamphlet publish
ed that would cost $40, and the Secretary
had one published that cost 5000. Even
the 5000 work could have been done much
less. The secretary had requested land
agents to send him list of lands they
had for sale. This the committee dissp-
proved. He read from the resolutions
passed and written in the committees
book, to show that policy had been out
lined. Explained what the committee
meant by its Endorsement of agents and
organs. Dallas land men wanted list
OF enquirers for Texas lands to the CON-
mittee, and they resolved that these mat
tiers could not be given out. The COM
mlttee was flooded with correspondence
and sll kinds of propositions. One old
man wrote with red ink and asked the
committee to sell q remnant stock of
goods for him valued at $500. He ex-
planned that California railroads were
not anxious to haul people from that
state to this. He said that division of
sentiment, and indecision was doing in
jury, and should be removed, and that he
was ready to stand by the record of the
committee or, IL not agreeable, he could
step down and out.

Who is this man, this Western man!
His name needs more than mention,
For he has shown he will and can
Exist without pension.
August, no doubt, had earned his wage
While fighting 'neath the hammer;
Is he insane or in rage
To act in such manner
He certainly is not OF those,
The clinging sort Of yermin,
Who keep as relics bloody clothes,
And fiaunt them like in Sh-rm-n.

Oh, shame to think in all the land,
In all its wide extension
Gus Burkhart's is the only hand
TO let go of pension.

The marvellous processes by which the
wand of the planter king is transmitted
into rich casks Of snow white or golden
sugar, by means Of steam boilers, strain
ers, vacuum pans, mixers and centrifu-
gals, has been described many times
over, and is a thing not to be done by
novice without abusing and misus-
ing technical terms.
The raw juice is dark, dirty looking
liquid, hideous gray in color. AS it
undergoes all the scientific processes of
the most approved methods of sugar
making, it runs short chromatic scale
in color, changing from gray to a green
ish brown and then to shades of red-yel-
low, and finally emerging from the CEN
trifugals like drifts of snow, white, fine
and beautiful to look upon. The refuse
of all the strainings is a thick mass, like
Shiny, gray soft soap. 1t is thrown out
in heaps behind the sugar house, whence
it is used as fertilizer, but as it lies there
it takes on most royal robe of mold,
showing exquisite, brilliant salmon and
rose and bronze green hues, something,
l should fancy, that would run a micro
scopist mad with delight and curiosity

A Japanese Dinner Party.

The etiquette of a japanese dinner
party is rather entertaining. As soon as
the guests are seated on the mats, two,
and sometimes three, small low tables are
brought to each. On the one Immediately
in front of him the guest finds seven
little covered bowls. On the second table
will be five other bowls. The third, q
very small table. should hold three bowls.
Take up the chopsticks with the right
hand, remove the cover of the rice bowl
with the same hand, transfer it to the
left, and place it to the left of the table.
Then remove the cover of the bean soup
and place it on the rice cover. Next
take up the rice bowl with the right
hand, pass it to the left, and eat two
mouthfuls with the chopsticks, and then
drink once from the soup bowl And so
on with the other dishes-never emitting
to eat some rice between each mouthful
Of meat, fish and vegetables, unless you
forget which is your mouth and which is
your right hand, Or have become so giddy
that you cannot tell your left hand from
a chopstick or your rice bowl from your
third able.-Chicago News.

The schoolbox,s Cold Lunch.

Another evil is the cold lunch which
must be taken by most of the children,
FOR the hours intermission at noon
scarcely allows even those residing near
the school to go home, dine and return.
Every housekeeper knows how difficult it
is to provide variety in cold lunches.
Children often take the same things to
school day after day, till they tire of
them. Food which has been done up in
tin box, or wrapped in napkins, is not
apt to look, or smell, or taste very nice.
The child is not tempted, and its noon
meal, which should be the principal one
of the day, is made poor and light one.
Perhaps it is eked out with pickles,
sweets and cakes of doubtful composition,
purchased at the catch penny store al
ways to be found near a school house.
If during the winter months an inter-
mission of an hour and a half OF even of
two hours were given, as is done in many
Swiss and German schools, most of the
children could go home and take the hot,
nourishing midday meal which many
doctors consider necessary to health.-E.
