enough to favor such accumulation
when the country was poor, but now
that the country is rich the tendency
of accumulation must be checked

Money and Labor.

Money and labor are the right and

of the hands of productive industry
is bound and can only employ itsel

another party owns or holds supreme
control of money the other hand Of
productive industry is bound and
can only be used as the over or mas
ter directs.
| When chattel slavery existed in
the South labor was directed by the
owner of it. Its product above q
bare subsistence was appropriated
by the owner or master, and the
country grew poor, although the
large labor owners were wealthy and
labor became degraded on account OF
the poverty which attached to 1t.

another class OF masters, and we find

by having one of its hands tied and
in the control of class OF bankers.
and while wealth flows into the hands
of the money masters, the general
public, the country de facto, is grow

the money masters, grow rich. The
money owners are more heartless
and cruel, more exacting and greedy

human slaves. In the efforts to re-

are gathering again to overthrow the
enslavers of capital, this time by the

No Issue Between Them.

There is no issue between the old parties,
and he who thinks there is let him try to
tell what that issue is. He will then find
he has undertaken an impossible job There
is absolutely no Issue between them. There
is scramble which shall get the most
votes for their tickets, but no issue on prin-
ciple.
The democrats 1.-THE county have nominal.
ed full ticket, but what legislation do they
propose? Legislative nominees are pledged
to nothing. The convention turned them
out without instruction to act as they please
If elected. The lobby will be on hand with
corporation bills and will button hole and
sound every representative, endeavoring to
enlist him in the interest of their clients,
and the delegates having carte blanche will
be at liberty to vote for the measures or
make the best bargain possible--if inclined
to bargain-haying been left to the freedom
of their own will, as far as their constituents
are concerned.
The republican party will nominate a
ticket of the same order. The delegates
will be left free as mountain air 10 act as
their own sweet will dictates, or as the lobby
suggest, if they should be the lucky party at
the polls. We hold that there will be no
discoverable difference in the political status
oftheir tickets, and the party name will be
the only mark to distinguish them by.
The Farmers Alliance proposes to change
this method, so that candidates sent to the
legislature will go with definite instructions
from their constituents, to secure such legis-
lation as shall be formulated in great
measure before their nomination. Then
voting will be for measures not men, except
representatives of measures. II is stated
and on good authority, that the managers
of the two parties in Maryland have worked
together for years after the election to secure
such legislation as the corporations and
favored classes desired, while the heelers
and saloon buns were rewarded for their
services by the Office stealings. When it
came 10 business matters in which special

laws we're necessary both parties were one,
and the public interest has been Invariably
turned down. The uninstructed manner in
vogue of sending delegates to represent the
public makes il easy for the monopoly class
to secure such legislation as they desire.
Farmers, especially, have been cursed with
this manner Of legislation, which has all
been in favor of tax eaters and tax shirkers.
And our national politics have been run in
the same way. The two parties have had
absolutely no Distinguishing principles.
They have beaten tom toms over the tariff
but it has been all wind and noise, and they
are preparing to pursue the same role next
