He Knew Ris Duty and Did 1t Not.

"By the close Of the present century
the rich will grow richer and the poor
poorer; the great middle class will dis
appear as the struggle for existence be-
comes fierce and relentless. j.
Ingalls,.
And believing all this, Senator ingalls,
has occupied the high place of honor to
which the people of Kansas have raised
him, and has never uttered one sentence
or written one line to stay the coming of
the direful time he so clearly predicts.
The "greaI middle class' is, the class
to which the farmer belongs. The
farmers have not vet ''disappeared," !"
though their struggles with mortgages,
taxes and the evil conditions which leg
islatiOn has brought about has been
"fierce :" neither do they intend to "dis-
appear by the close of the present CEN
tury." The disappearance which will
take place will doubtless be of a repre-
sentative of the great aristOcratic class
from the senate of the United States. -

Depressing Depravity.

The cussom of" giving lunches In tne
committee room of the senate was re-
yived the other day by Senator Hoar,
who gave little spread to dozen of
his friends. Temperance people have a
good deal TO put up with under the ad-
ministratiOn of Benjamin Harrison.
They will be still further depressed to
learn that an apartment within the sa-
cred precincts of the national Capitol
has been the scene Of popping corks that
resembled the Morton buffet.-Chicago
Criterion Liquor).
The above words from the friends of
Morton's buffet should be very cOnsol-
ing TO the fellows who say that Morton's s
party is the only party that has ever
done anything for prohibition. And
now some of the same set of fellows tell
farmers and laborers to just stick TO the
e. o. p., IT'S the only party that has done
anything for the farmers and laboring
people. and that the action that is now
being taken by the farmers and friends
of right will injure their cause for forty
years. You see they only have one old
chestnut, aud they use il against every
movement of reform that is likely to
hurt the dear" old party.

Missouri leads III the disfranchisement
of thousands, and then fines them for
refusing to vote with the robbers; and
the old landmarks Of defense, the sn-
preme court decisions fade before the
demand of these modern vandals. We
see the corn crop of Nebraska pass into
the hands of the monled classes at ten or
twelve cents per bushel, and then, rs if
~ ;natic, the price jumps to nearly
double, while the spectators unload
upon the poverty miners and
laborers of the east. During all this, no
effort is being made to provide the peo-
pie with money, and the farms are pass

and the mortgage is destroying the hon.
