BLANKET
The Anderson Addition-4f Beautiful Site
for Town--Only Half Mile From
the Depot-How the Town
Got Its Name.

BLANKET. BROWN COUNTY, TEX, July %.
The question is often asked, who named
Blanket. and how did the name originates
Pink Anderson, whom everybody will see
on the grounds to-day, was the first white
,ettler in the Blanket neighborhood, and
long before Blanket was thought of. The
captain gives the following version of the
romantic origin of the name of the little old
hamlet under the hill: plumber

town site recently laid off, and where the

have no fight nor comparisons TO make but

The removal of the old town up on the

The attempt on the part Of East
ern Capitalist to choke off the
peoples party by refusing loans
on the plea of unwise legislation, is
piece of political trickery as con-
temptible as it is transparent.
That any Kansas paper should be
sufficiently sore-headed to aid in
circulating such hydrophobic views
to the detriment Of the state, is a
thing that all patriotic people should
make a note Of it for future ref
erence to say the least. Mellen
can still place all good farm and
city loans needed in Anderson
county promptly, at low rates of
interest.
The above appeared in the RIP.
last week, and was paid for by Mr..
Mellen:: We re-publish it, and
charge him nothing for it, to show
the people that those papers that
are making such a hue and cry
about soaring capital out of Kan
sas" are only trying to mislead the
people. Some capitalists may be
scared, but it is the fault of those
who are trying to make capital
against the Peoples party. The
whole thing is political buncombe.

Give Us a New POmace.

Ed. AGIrAToR l wish to ask
through the columns Of your paper
the following question : Why the
capitalists, bankers, old-party pa
pers and other call the farmers an
archists and regulators
Now if the farmers are anarchists
and regulators, what were those
men who threw the tea into Boston
harbor? What was George Wash
ington If he had not succeeded,
would not the Tories have hung
him? What were Thomas Jeffer-
son, Andrew Jackson, Abe Lincoln
and many others that could be
named +?
The owner Of farm who lives in
the city orders his hired man to
grind up some apples and make
some cider. Hired man reports
that he has made so many gallons of
cider.
City owner: Why did you not
make more =?
Hired man: To make more CT
der | will have to have new POM
ace to put into the press.
Now any farmer, or boy raised on
a farm, knows that when you have
squeezed all the cider out of the
cheese in press that you can get, to
make more cider you must have a
new pomace. 1t is no use to call
the boy anarchist, repudia-
tor, etc.
Is the farmer of to-day not in the
same shape? He cannot pay his
debts until the capitalist will let
him make the money to pay his
debts with. Give the farmer a new
pumace-more money in circulation.

penses. When the crops ars short,
they say they have nothing to sell.
When cabinet officer dies who has
managed the United States treasury
in the interests of usurers and bull
lion brokers, the nation mOurns.
When poor woman dies in a tramp
wagon and leaves little family Of
innocent children to the cold chart
ties of a government that has allow
ed the money changers to rob these
poor families Of their homes, by
usury collected from the money
issued by it's authority, the national
banks and the money pirates do not
lower their flags at half-mast. The
minister may say at her grave that
she is one of Gods poor, which may
be true, but Legislation in the inter
est of usury caused her grave to be
marked "pauper" Shame on such
administration, and the man who
will vote longer to continue it in
power.

AN old friend ofsours tried to in
form us the other day that legisla-
ton had nothing to do with the low
price of the products Of labor and
the farms. To him and others, if
they are in as bad a fog as he is,
we wish to communicate the fact
that money, stocks, bonds and
mortgages are all creations of law.
Not one of them could exist with
out special law to create them, and
enforce their provisions. The adj
ministration Of the government
since the war has been to appreciate
them all to the extent that they are
worth premium in the markets.
They Of themselves produce moth
ing. They toll not, but the law
gives them the profits Of labor, and
the courts enforce the law. They
take millions annually from the pro-
ducts of labor and the farms in this
country. When the government
taxes it's productive enterprises
more than they are able to pay, they
are crippled in proportion as they
are unjustly taxed. If the govern
ment would issue a sufficient vol
ume Of legal tender money and keep
it in cirulation, there would be no
use for bonds and mortgages, and it
would do so if it was honestly adj
There are millions paid
to the editors of the subsidized
press to keep the laboring people in
the fog our old friend is in.

government.

GEORGE WASHINGTON, the first man
who signed the constitution of the
United States, on Sept. II, 1877,
said, when he took the pen to do so,
that "should the states reject this
excellent constitution, the probable
tiles are that an opportunity will
never again be afforded to cancel
another in peace. The next will be
drawn in blood" We fear that
should the laboring men fail to unite
and with their ballots re-establish
this government upon the founda-
ton that Washington helped to
build, later on it will have to be
done in blood. 80

The Nations Peril.

The obligation Of the debtor class
in the United States, is somewhere
in the vicinity Of twenty billion of
dollars, reaching out and embracing
every interest of value. The rail
way companies are in debt. The
cities are in their commercial build
ings and dwellings,, plastered all
over with mortgages. Merchants
are selling goods procured with
borrowed capital. Professional
men are often unable to make both
ends meet. Almost all the manu-
factories in the west are to large
extent running upon borrowed CAPT
tai. Fully three-fourths of the
farm lands are encountered, and to
still further.add to the general de-
preston, now that retrenchment
has set in, very many Of the labor
ers employed in the different indus
tries are thrown out of employment,
and sooner or later will become a
charge upon society either as pau
pers or criminals, Each day brings
us nearer to the final catastrophe,
for as things are now, every indus
try, taxed to it's utmost capacity,
will not pay the interest on the
whole debt, pay taxes and afford
the persons dependent upon the va
rious industries comfortable living.
The weakest will fall first, the next
weakest in their order until in the
final wind up the capitalist will own
the railways, the cities, the farm
lands, the manufactures; and with
these sources of wealth in the
hands Of the few-the people will
be serfs.

JOHN SHERMAN said in a speech in
the Uuited States senate, on Dec.
18th, 1867, that "the bonds could
not be negotiated, and it became
necessary to depreciate the green
backs in order to make market for
the bonds" Again on the 9th Of
February, 1868, in another speech
in the senate, he said that "the
greenbacks were deprecated for
wise purpose" You see it became
necessary to depreciate the green
backs, he said, for a wise purpose,
two years after the war closed, to
make sale for the bonds. This
shows that the bonds were sold to
rob the country, and not to save it,
By depreciating the greenbacks
they were able to buy the bonds at
from 40 to 60 cents on the dollar
and by subsequent Legislation they
made them worth % to 80 per cent.
premium, payable in gold with in
terest paid in advance and non-tax-
able. A grand scheme They
now have depreciated the farms of
this country "for wise purpose"
and the farmers will wake up some
and find they are all rent
ers, then perhaps they will realize
that it was done "for a wise pur-
pose" unless they unite and vote
the bonds and bond worshipers out
of the archives and halls Of our
government.

THE two great American politi-
clans, Ingalls, and Cleveland, have
cast their hooks and lines to the
windward side Of politics, and the
contest for 1892 is fairly begun, so
far as the politicians of the so-called
Republican and Democratic parties
are concerned. One very important
factor in the success Of any party
is the voter. How can the voter
harmonic Ingalls, actions for the
past eighteen years with his recent
speech in the senate ? How can
the voter harmonize Mr.. Cleveland's
present letter against the free coin
age of silver with his governors
veto of the five-cent fare bill of the
street railways in the city of New
York against the laboring masses?
The followers Of Cleveland are near

WE often see tramp wagons
drawn by poor horses with a little
family of ragged children packed in
the hard surroundings of extreme
poverty, and have asked the mana
gers of these trains where they are
from and where they were going?
Their answers generally were that
they had come from some of the
western counties of this state-had
been closed out by mortgage and
were looking for work to enable
them to feed and clothe their fami-
lies. An insufficient rainfall in a
few localities may make some suf-
fering, but it should not be general.
We have the promise of seed time
and harvest. The gospel does not
promise the usurers the harvest, but
they get there however, and their
agents tell the producers when
crops are abundant that over-pro-
duction is the reason they cannot
exchange their products to pay ex-
