Who Are the Home owners ?

In round numbers, there are in
the United States nine million
mortgages, presumably resting upon
nine million homes in the city and
country. But it may be that some
of the mortgages are other than
those that cucumber homes. Let
us leave off one million and suppose
that eight of the nine million mort
cages are resting upon homes, and
suppose that the mortgages average
five hundred dollars eaach, then the
mortgage Indebtedness of nominal
home owners is, in round numbers,
four billion dollars. Suppose that
this sum is bearing interest at the
rate of eight per cent. per annum,
then the nominal home owners are
paying in interest the enormous
sum of three hundred and twenty
million dollars per annum. Suppose,
now, that the eight million homes
are occupied by families averaging
four each, and we find that the
homes of half the population are en-
numbered. Then take into consid-
Grafton the fact that a large per
cent. of the other half of population
are not even the nominal owners of
homes, and our readers can easily
see that the boast of the monopo-
listic press, that this is country of
homes, is the thinnest kind of false
hood.

mortgage-to whom ?-to the hold
ers of the first mortgage-thus at
tempting to entirely cut off the gov
eminent.
There is one thing that Gould and
his confederates must bear in mind
that the people are awakening to
their interests that in the next
congress there will be many men,
pledged to the adjustment of the
claims against this railroad, and
they will make things exceedingly
lively for Mr.. Gould's handymen
who hang about the capital. The
battle is begun it will be fought
to finish.

The Catholic Church for Tenn
peFance.

The Westphalia Times of the I'd
says that "many not understanding
the Catholic religion have repeat
edly accused them of UNFOLDING
liquor selling and liquor drinking.
These statements are false" And
for proof, the editor quotes from a
pastoral letter Of the archbishops
and bishops of the United States,
assembled in Baltimore, in the third
plenery council. In the letter re-
ferred to, pastors are requested to
exhort all of their focks engaged in
selling liquor to abandon the traffic
and "embrace more becoming way
of making a living" We quote
one paragraph in full, as follows:
And here it behooves us to re-
mind our workingmen, the bone and
sinew of the people, and the special
ly beloved children of the church,
that if they wish to observe Sunday
as they ought, they must keep
away from drinking places on Sat
urday night. Garry your wages
home to your families, where they
rightfully belong.
We are glad the Times published
the letter, and we wish we could
write in burning letters in the heart
and upon the brain of every labor
ing man, Garry your wages home
to your families, where they right
fully belong" The families of all
suce men rise up and call them
blessed, and they are q blessing to
themselves, and a blessing to So
ciety.

The Eagle of last week fairly hugs
itself with joy over what he calls
a gain in strength for the Republic
an party. He says: kansas City,
Kansas, elected Republican mayor;
SO also did Parsons, Wichita, Gar
den City, Topeka, Beloit, Ottawa,
Lawrence, etc." Poor Trigg! he is
evidently beside himself; his costa
cies make him ridiculous when we
take into consideration the fact that
Kansas was, before the fall election
Of 1890, the banner Republican state
of the Union. He seems also to
forget that in last falps campaign,
the main support of the Republican
party came from the cities and
towns-their defeat came from the
rural districts. He seems to be OBJ
livious of the fact that these towns
and cities have, for years, shown
Republican ascendancy which an
other party hardly dare dispute.
In his joy over the election of a few
mayors, he seems to be utterly in
cognizant of the fact that, never, in
the history of Kansas, did the Re-
publicans have such a fierce battle
to elect few mayors. He utterly
ignores the fact that new power in
politics has lately developed, and
that power, the National Citizens
Alliance, made it red-hot for the 6.
o. p. in many towns, and in some
towns were victorious. This organ
ization, though young in months,
fought hard battle in many. a mu-
nicipal election. Further, the edit
or of the Eagle strains his joy, and
prevaricates to some extent in the
editorial of which the above quota
ton is a part. He would lead the
people to believe that Republicans
elected mayors in all of the above
named cities, when in fact Wichita
and Topeka elected Democratic may
ors. Trigg seems to forget, when
exulting, that the Topeka Capital,
the god and guide of the little
jump-up-behind editors of G. o. p.
of Kansas, said that if Topeka were
lost to the Republicans, their party
was downed in the state. Topeka
elected a Democratic mayor, and,
according to Hudson's prophecy,
the Republican party has received
black eye, from which it will not
soon recover but still Trigg rubs
his hands together, pats himself ap-
provingly, and gleefully exclaims:
1.-The G. o. p. is gaining strength"
Verify, Trigg, you do make us
smile.

WERE we q national banker, so
protected by the government that
we could print wagon loads of our
notes, loan them to the people at
rates ranging from ten to thirty-six
per cent. per year, and thus obtain
interest on what we owed, our notes
being evidences that we were in
debt to the extent of their circula-
ton, and were we hog as well, it
is safe to say we would oppose a
government issue Of legal tender
money, and also oppose the free
coinage of silver as things coming
in competition with our valuable
privilege. The man or combination
of men who are. protected while
robbing cradles, farms and grave
yards, and all the time robbing, is
not easily shaken off, but it can be
knocked off.-Pomeroy's Advance
Thought.

The Eagle of the Sd claims, in
subtance, that Governor Elder
thought the actions Of the house a
disgrace to the state. 1t also
quotes from the Lawrence Journal,
giving the impression that the house
defeated a mortgage bill because it
was a Republican measure. Both
statements are false. The house
would only have been too glad to
pass even compromise measure.

ed interview, Jay could is quoted
as follows in reference to the reports
as to the proposition to issue a
blanket mortgage covering the I'm
ion Pabific debt: Eyes, think
that when the stockholders meet,
toward the last of this month, that
we will have something to offer in
that connection. A bond covering
the entire property, and at low
rate of interest, would be a most
advantageous thing. The Union
Pacific has 5000 miles of track.
Only 400 miles of this is covered
by the government lien, which
amounts, in round numbers, less the
sinking fund, to $50, 100000. Now
as matter of fact, it would not be
such terrible thing to the company
if the government did take the
400 miles and we had to recon
struct the gap in order to round out
the system, but l think that we will
offer blanket mortgage which will
take care of the government lien as
we'll as of other securities.
The above, taken from the Kansas
City Times, would indicate that Mr..
Gould imagines himself greater
than the government itself. He
speaks very confidently of what the
road will do (under his manage
ment) and let the government help
itself if it can. He speaks Of 400
miles of road on which, he says, the
government has lien of $5O,OO0,-
600 which he thinks will cut but
small figure as compared with the
balance of 5000 miles which the
company operates, but he fails to
say anything about the accrued in
terest, which, together with the
principal amounts to upward of
$3.50, 100000 which this company
to-day owes to the government. He
forgets that unfulfiilled contracts
have forfeited the immense condi-
tional land grants. Mr.. Gould is
certainly overstepping his limits.
He forgets that all men cannot be
bought or coerced into doing his
bidding Mr.. Gould says that the
government may take the l 400
miles for the fifty million dollars;
that it would not hurt the company,
virtually admitting that it is more
than it worth but he fails to say
how many miles of road judgment
for the accrued interest would COW
er. At the same figures as the
l 400 miles could be taken, $500
miles more could be taken under
judgment, making 1900 miles or
more than half their mileage in pay
ment of the loan and interest. If,
above this, the government demands
pay for the fofeiteited lands, where
will be Mr.. Gould's 5000 miles of
road ? The blanket mortgage above
spoken of is undoubtedly scheme
on the part of the railroad company,
to put the security entirely in their

WIPED OUT.

Whole Towns and cities Shaken From
Their Foundations I'm San Salvador by
an Earthquake-Millions OF Dollars In
Property and Many Lives Lost.
Millions of dollars worth of property
and many lives were destroyed in the
Republic of San Salvador by an earth
quake Wednesday. Whole towns wero
wiped out, and SO far as advices are
received, indicate that hardly city in
the country, except those along the
coast, escaped the awful effects of the
convulsion. The volcanoes of San Sal
vador, San Miguel and Izalco had been
unusually active, and deep subterranean
rumblings and slight earth tremors
were felt for several days. At
just 1:55 Wednesday morning the
earth began to shake. The
wave had strong vertical and
oscillatory movement. People rushed
into the streets in their night clothes,
while the shock lasted only twenty Sec
onds before it had passed away, there
was panic-stricken mob making its
way to the open country outside Of San
Salvador. The scene was terribly SUBJ
lime. Men, women and children were
shrieking and praying in the streets,
| walls of houses cracked, tottered and
| fell; there was deep. continuous rum
bling as il of heavy thunder, the sky
was overcast, and the air was filled
with fine, penetrating dust. While
in long waves, and strong men were un-
able to keep their feet The panic
| stricken people hocked to the open
| ground outside of the city, temporary
shelters were thrown up wherever pos
sible, but nearly all the men and q
| great many of the women and children
had only the sky for covering All
through the morning there were slight
shocks, but none approaching in intens-
ity that which had been so destructive
President Ezeta is doing every
thing he can to stop the panic
and care for the homeless people
until it is considered safe for
them to go back to their homes.
The towns throughout the coun-
try have suffered more Sc
verely than the capital even.
Analaquito and Escomagua have been
completely destroyed. Cojutepequew.
Santa Tecla, San Pedro and Masahuet
were SO badly shaken that they are
practically ruined, while the shock was
plainly felt and damage done by it at
Santa Anna and Susimtepequela, fully
sixty miles from San Salvador. 1t is
impossible ut this writing to form any
idea as to the number of lives which
have been lost. Two people were kill
ed at San Salvador, though there were
many almost miraculous escapes from
death. 1t is feared, however, that there
have been many people killed in the
smaller towns.
