A boat had stranded in the Ohio
river. 1t was heavily loaded with liquor,
hides and hams. The crew had yainly
exhausted every means OF pulling off
the bar. In the small town on the bank
hard by, a band of christian ladies were
holding a temperance prayer meeting.
The captain repaired to the prayer
meeting. and invited the good ladies to
come down to the boat and hold their
meeting for the good of himself and
crew. They gladly went and were politely
received at the boat. When they had
seated themselves in the place prepared,
their weight tipped the forward end OF
the boat and loosed it from the bar.
just then in rushed the captain and said,
Ladies / am sorry, but we cannot con-
tinue this meeting now; my boat is be-
hind time and must move on immediate
ly." He hurried them of, saying, At
some future time you can hold another
meeting on my boat if we need your
prayers or your weight" Both OF the
old political parties are stranded and
are exerting every effort to get off the
sand-bar. The toilers OF the nation are
praying for relief. Democratic and Re-
publican captains stand by and say,
Come down and hold your prayer
meeting on our boat" But it is not the
prayers OF laborers but their weight is
wanted to loose the two old stranded
wrecks OF the Republican, and Democrat
parties. Either Of them or both OF them

Our American Press dispatches OF last
week contained the %treasury's state
ment showing the amount OF money in
circulation in 1860, 1865, 1885, 1889
and 1891, and making the present cir
culation per capita S23.27. The publ
cation Of this dispatch in an indepen-
dent paper has caused much comment
and some dissatisfaction among u
radical readers. While we advocate the
principles of the independent party be-
cause we believe they will afford the relief
the people need, yet We do not mean to
follow the example Of the partisan press
and give but one side Of all questions.
Our pages are open to both democrats
and republicans as we'll as independents
for discussion, in short pithy articles,
on the leading issues OF the times, and
most surely they will be open for re-
ports from all public officials. If the
per capita circulation is S23.37 let ut
find why a great majority Of our people
never receive their proportion. II
strikes the average man that the people
will receive little benefit from $1OO pei
capita when the funds in the hands o
~millionalres, railroad and other corpo
rations and national banks, are used tc
make up the total in circulation. 1t Ii

MOODY AND THE JUDGESHIP.

Ex-senator Moody; OF South Dakota,

friends OF his here that he will 60 t %
Cape May to consult with President
Harrison about this judgeship prize.
Those who know the situation predict
that he will defeat Judge Sandborn, OF
st. Paul for this place. He is credited
with having a big pull with the presi-
dent owing to the fact that he was form
erly a resident OF Indianna and a
staunch friend of the administration,
as well as being closely intimate with the
chief executive.
If Moody has a"big pull" with the
president, why was he not re-appointec
:, territorial judge in 1888? Senator Har
rison was then representing Indianna il
the senate, but it is we'll known that Ger

Timer Randi.

Last Friday afternoon in the case OF
Violin, Wood & Marshal, against the
Upper Rapid company, the arbitrators,
Messrs. Brown, Wood and Loveland,
agreed on $1,95O.75 with five months
interest at seven per cent as the sum to
be paid the contractors. As the accept

taken as a starting point by the arbi-
traitors, the Crouch'clalm OF $1,000 was
thrown out.
The total claim of the contractors,
$3,1OO, was diminished by thedisallow.

THAT COMBINE.

The circulars sent to Alliance men and
published in the reform press OF the
country, urging farmers to hold their
wheat, has called forth a good deal Of
criticism and especially from the repub-
lican press. In the first place it was
laid on the shoulders OF the Alliance, as
usual, whereas it came from jealous
Alliance men. but not from the organi-
zation. Then it vas condemned as a
