Just as there will be real estate

the government, so also will there be
loans repaid that were made upon nom

being made with precise regularity, not
in one or two months, but day by day,
week by week and month by month, as

government vaults under the sub

a PLAIN DUTY.

ItIsto support the Reform rrcss-Your
Friends, Not Your Enemies.
In this issue of the Tribune we ex-
plode another batch of subsidized press
lies about alliance and peoples party
men and measures, and we again adj
monish the friends of the great cause
of industrial emancipation of their
duty to aid the struggling reform press
and to refuse further "sustenance to
the enemy"
The plutocracy has fully realized tho
Importance of the press in molding
public opinion and it has only been
through their liberal support of such
papers rs would support their theories
and pretensions that they have so long
controlled the financial and industrial
policy of this nation in their own in
tercsts. The reform press has been
and must continue TO be the chief i'm
strumcnt in educating the people to
full conception of their rights and the
imperative necessity for n united and
determined effort at the polls TO regain
them.
In this great worl; they labor at a
tremendous disadvantage, having no

bondholders, wealthy corporations or
holders Of fat offices, and being largely
boycottcd by city advertisers. Yet
| they must, Of course, while reduced al-
most entirely to receipts from sub
scribers for their revenue meet the sub
scription prices OF papers with whom the
subscription receipts are but bagatelle
as compared with the receipts from
other sources The duty OF the great
plain people in whose behalf the re-
form press is waging such heroic
fight against such odds is clear
and imperative; support should be at
once and completely withdrawn from
all papers which circulate such obvions
and malicious falsehoods against alli-
ancemen and measures as those here
with refuted and which refuse TO re-
spectfully discuss or give space for dis
cussion of alliance measures. With
papers of restricted circulation 1t Is
practicable and highly effective To re-
fuse trade TO any merchant who adver-
tises in such papers. Every man who
'sees the light" should also consider
himself special agent 10 extend the

Comn,It ThIs to Memory.

The following is an extract from the
leading editorial of the Chicago Tribune
July 20th, 1891:
"rhe two old parties will pursue
their own course and the Farmers ALI
ance will pursue It's path until enough
of it's members recover from their mid
summer madness, when the organiza-
ton will crumble TO pieces, as the old
oath-bound secret Accommodating party
did. II IL should appear that there was
real danger Of the peoples party hold
ing together long enough TO do great
mischief, the democrats would unite
with the republicans, from whom they
differ chiefly on the tariff and Offices.
and the two would fight against COM
mon enemy. When that job was ended
the two parties would separate and re-
sumo their dispute on the tariff as OF
old"
The Hazel Green herald. [volume] (Hazel Green, Wolfe County, Ky.) 1885-19??, 1891-09-18

The alliance sub-treasnry pan
largely owes its popularity to the vim
dictive opposition which has been con.
stantly wased against it by both old
parties. The horrible principles which
il was said TO contain, and the direfui
results which were to follow its fdop-
ton. were held up 10 view in TIC most
odious manner. In fact it was SO ex-
tensively advertised that every body
was anxious 10 see it. with the natural
result that the farmers should favor the
plan, while the spectators and non
producers look upon il as the worse
thing that could happen % them AL

They Thought They Were Going to Work on
the Worlds Fair Grounds.
Somebody thinks he is having fun at the ex-
pense of three or four hundred poor persons
who were made to believe that they were to be
taken to Chicago and given work on the world g
fair grounds. So far as the men know, man
giving his name as Wilson has been giving out
the information that the laborers were wanted
and that they would be taken to Chicago and
paid good salaries.
Last night was designated as the time for
them to start, and they were to meet at the
Baltimore and Ohio depot.
The laborers, mostly colored, assembled
about the depot last night with their bundles
of clothing and were ready to travel.
Mr.. Wilson did not put in appearance but
the men, with their wives and friends. remained
about the depot. and SO obstructed travel that
the police had to clear the way for pedestrians.
Some of the men who expected to 90 to Chi
cago had given up situations here, and are now
out of employment
Although it was evident that no one would
appear 10 furnish them transportation to Chi
cago some of the men loitered about the depot
until nearly midnight.

good form indeed. While nearly all the parts
were well taken, those of Mr.. Bigelow as Ko- Ko
and Mr.. Murray as Pooh Bah were particularly
worthy of mention, the latter because it was
beautifully sung and the other because it was
most amusingly acted. A better Ko-Ko or a
better Pooh Bah has not been seen in Washing

Flowers That Bloom in the Spring won for
him continuous and enthusiastic recalls. Dir
MURRAY was also called on for repetitions Miss
