The Waco Curiosity Shop is at TOT
and I'll Austin street. The Waco Gu
rlosity Shop Is the place to buy and
sell all kinds of secondhand goods.
They carry n full and complete stock
of furniture, stoves, lamps glassware,
trunks, sewing machines, and nearly
every al ticle needed for housek eeping.
1t Is the place that never tries to hum
bug the people with so-called Cost
Sales, Moving Sales, or other devices
to deceive. 1t is the place where they
can and do sell goods at a fair profit
so that there is no accumulation of old
time-worn goods. 1t is the poor mans
friend. The Curiosity Shop was start
ed less than three years ago with less
than small fortune, and good name.
Since then 1t has sold nearly $40, 900
worth of goods. 1t has helped hum
dreds of people to furnish their homes
when they could not do so in any 9TH
or way. 1t has continued to grow,
make friends and prosper as no other
house in Waco ever did with same
capital.
Now let me tell you what the Curl
osity Shop is going to do. 1t is going
to have the best stock of new stoves,
furniture, trunks and general house.
hold goods it ever had. 1t is going to
meet all competition and lead it when
we can. 1t will make special low
prices in new cook and heating stoves
? and in the future as in the past, try
to make as many friends as possible,
< realizing that it is by our friends we
live. Thanking all for past favors
and our prosperity, we are as ever,

CAPITAL, Nor LABOR, Protected.
The Boston Globe, speaking out
from the very heart OF the protected
region, ssks these pertinent ques-
tions:
Why do labor statistics show near
ly million OF highly protected la
borers to have been out of work this
year?
Why are highly protected Penn
sylvania laborers working for 80
cents day, and children from seven
to ten years old picking slate in the
coal mines?
Why are wages under high pro-
tective tariffs in Italy and Germany
about one half what they are in free
trade England?
Why is a blanket, which is a ne
cesslty, taxed three times as high
as piece of lace which is a luxury?
Why under our highly protective
tariff, Is only II instead of 90 per
cent. of our commerce, as of old, car
ricd on by American ships.
The Osceola times., 1888-08-11
Good Advice.

Mr.. Powderly, In the 1onrnaloJ'
Inited Labor, offers this advice:
"Call town meeting and appoint
committee to go through your town
to find out how many men are hold
ing on to lots with a view to specu-
lation, then go to the assessors office
and see if they are paying taxes ac-
cording to the price they ask for
their lots, and if they are not, insist
upon their doing so. Make every
man who owns lot pay taxes on it
for its full value. This is not Spen-
cerism, Georgei,m Or Powierlyism.
1t is better than all of them put to-
gE,her. 1t is equity. 1t is equal
and exact justice. Try it,"

be- expected OF the Democrats.
This j. only a sample o. ihe thor
ouganess with which the liquor in
terest dominates our politics. In
most Of our cities the majority Of our
municipal officers are either liquor
sellers, or else closely affiliated with
the liquor power. II any other sin
gle business interest,-thc iron bus
mess, the railroad business, the dry
goods business,-undertook to CON
troll our government, we would rise
up and put it down with heavy
hand; but the rum-seller rules us.
year after year, and we bow to the
yoke, and smile serenely as they
heap on our shoulders the burdens
OF taxation and tie loads OF dcgra-
dation.
For this abiect vassalage to the
liquor oligarchy there are two reas-
ons,-the eagerness to get gain, and
'hc ihauness OF partlSanship. Our
respectable citizens are too busy to
attend to their political duties; and
they are generally unwilling, for
business reasons, to incur the hos
tillty of the saloon keepers. Many
OF them, too, are so strenuous in
their devotion to party that they are
ready to deliver the government
bound into the hands of the liquor
sellers for the sake of political vic
tory. a deeper sense OF the duties
of citizenship, and a clearer view o
party obligation would quickly bring
to an end the domination Of the sa
loon in politics.

They evidently do not know their

Ii may not be unllterestlng to our

The Saloon In Politics,
ChantangaaR Magazine:

;. From the Rer. Washington
GLADDEN., Pastor Of tie First Con-
evcgatioNai Church, Colum6nS, o.
1t is hardly too much to say that
in the politics of the state and the
municipality, the saloon is the ruling
power. 1t determines, in the ma or-
ity Of cases, who shall be our may
ors, and our city counoilmen; it die
tates the nomination of governors
and members of the legislature; it
determines what laws and ordinan-
ces shall be passed and enforced.
The liquor interest, which includes
the distillers, the brewers, the keep
ers of hotels and drinking places,
and the owners Of property used for
such purposes, constitutes a force to
which the average managing pollti-
clan and the ambitious political can
didate are invariably humbly sub
servient.
The business of the liquor dealer
is lucrative; they have plenty of
money to spend, and are shrewd
enough to spend it freely; they will
not allow any legal burdens or re-
strictions to be placed on their bus
mess, if they can help it. The po-
litical manager is continually made
TO feel the pressure of this tremen-
dous money power; it besets him be-
hind and before and lays its hand
upon him; from its presence he can
not escape. The liquor dealers are
but small fraction of the commune
ty, but so determined and insistent
are they that they control, to a great
extent, the policy of both great po-
litical parties. The word Of one
liquor seller has more weight with
the average political manager than
the word OF five respectable mer-
chants or of ten ministers or teachers.
In Ohio, during the last winter,
the Republicans had a clear MAORI
ty in the Legislature; but they were
controlled by the representatives from
Cincinnati, and the members from
Cincinnati were perfectly subservi-
ent to the liquor interest. Probably
five-sixth of the Republican voters
throughout the state were strongly
in favor of local option law which
should apply to counties or town.
ships; probably the Republican
members Of the legislature knew it;
but they deliberately turned their
backs on the great majority of their
respectable constituents and pros
trated themselves before that impc.
rious oligarchy which holds its court
in the saloon. When the Republi. !
