Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1891-05-26

RECENTLY, the Garnett Eagle made
the assertion that the AG1TAToR is
doing all it's fighting for the farmer,
and ignoring business men, when
really the per cent. Of business fail
ures is much larger than that OF
trainers. The Eagle is mistaken as
to the position of the AGIrAToR.
We freely admit that the wave of
depression that has swept over our
nation has swallowed up the for
tunes of an untold number Of bust
ness men. We also believe that
the full tide has not been reached.
There were over $4,000 failures of
business men last year, and 255 re-
ported for last week. We do not
ignore the awful truth, that every
business, every profession and. every
trade, is suffering along with farm
ing; and that all along the line for
quarter of a century, individual
after individual, belonging to all
vocations, have gone down into
hopeless poverty Doubtless there
are hundreds of thousands of mer-
chants and mechanics and profess
sional men, who have been used to
all the comforts of life, who are now
fighting the gaunt wolf of hunger,
while despair is Selling upon their
hearts, and unnerving them for the
unequal struggle. For such the
AGITAToR has the profoundest SYM
pathy. The AGITAToR makes no war
on the weak, or the poor, no matter
what class they belong to, what
race or what sex. The AGITAToR is
making war on the trusts, combina-
tons and political rings that have
banded together to destroy the lib
critics and happiness of the people.

Life Blood.

A sufficient supply and circula-
ton of money among the people OF
a government is as essential to their
prosperity as the supply OF life
blood that circulates in the human
body, is essential to health and en-
joyment of life. Cut off or draw
from the natural supply of blood, or
obstruct it's free circulation in the
human body, and you impair, wreck
and destroy the vital functions OF
human life. Hence, the man who
willfully takes the blood OF his fell
low man is an assassin. Now then,
as blood is in the human body, so is
money in the body polite. Money
is the life blood of government,
and it's equal and uniform circula-
ton among the people is as essen
tial to equity and the prosperity of
the people as that of the natural
blood to health and enjoyment OF
life. Cut off the sufficient supply
of money, and it's circulation among
the people, and you wreck labor in
all it's interests, bankrupt the pro-
ducers of capital, and damage every
condition of society. These are
conditions that are staring the
honest laboring masses of this coun-
try in the face to-day, brought
about by Legislation under the ad-
ministration Of a party that for the
past twenty-five years has been
doing the work of an assassin, in
cutting off the sufficient supply OF
money, and it's circulation among
the people. Hence, the laboring
people OF our country To-Day nave
been financially assassinated by a
party that has had it's supporters
blindfolded all these years with a
high protective tariff, while it has
been taking from them their finan-
cial blood, and turning it over to
the rings of robbers and monopoly
Thus we see that the financial pros
perity of labor in our country has
been assassinated by hypocritical
party that has been pretending to
be friend of the laboring people
and at the same time has been using
the assassin's knife.

WHEN the Wall street bankers
were in close circumstances on &C
count of loans on real estate in the
west, the government opened the
vaults of the United States treasu-
ry and supplied them. When ex-
positions are talked of, our legisla-
tors vote large appropriations to
them. When railroads are to be
built our Legislators loan them the
credit of the nation, besides giving
them large tracts of land, but when
the people, who are in distress on
account of the failure in crops or
lower prices for their products, ask
for loan, then howl is made that
it is unconstitutional. "-Anti-Mo-

THE CRIME OF CAM.

Ellsworth Jacobs Killed by His Brother
at BOylestOn, Ind.
FRANKFORT, Ind, Dec. lon Friday
evening Jesse Jacobs and f. M. Robin
son had gone to the village store at
Boyleston and joined the keeper, Silas
Armstrong, in game of pedro. While
engaged in the game Ellsworth Jacobs,
the victim, who had just returned home
from this city in a maudlin state of in
toxication, entered the store and began
to interrupt the players by pulling their
chairs about, jamming their hats over
their eyes, brushing their cards from
the table and other similar acts, which,
while annoying to the players, were
only intended IN fun by the whisky
orazed man.
Jesse demonstrated with his brother,
warning him of the consequences if he did
not 'slet up" but Ellsworth paid no at
tention and renewed the proceedings.
Here Jesse few into rage, which ended
in murder. Taking his brother by the
neck he began to viciously kick him
from the room.
At the door the victim turned, stag,
gered about about and finally succeeded
In drawing from his pocket small PEN
knife, with which he made pass at his
brother, threatening to ''cut him to
pieces, and Jesse, reaching behind the
door, secured a wagon neek-yoke, with
which he struck his brother terrific
blow, knocking him from the door stoop
to the walk, where he lay several min
utes apparently lifefess.
The poor fellow lived until Saturday,
death resulting from fractured skull,
Jesse was arrested. - Il

MOre Mine Trouble at Olive Springs.
Tenn.-Fears for tho Future.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec. There is
renewed trouble among the miners at
Olive Springs, 1t began Friday when
the free miners went on q spree and
they have been terrorizing the region
ever since. On Friday they attacked
negro miners, firing hundreds of shots,
They notified the terror-stricken blacks
to leave the district, or be killed. Many
of the negroes fed, but others called on
the mining company for protection.
Its president secured the names
of ten of the leaders aad got out
warrants for their arrest. The accused
men escaped to the mountains, where
two have since been captured. The
trials were set for Saturday, but post
poned. The miners demanded the dis
missal of the warrants, and on this be-
ing refused they all struck, and no work
Is being done. 1t is probable that the
convict miners will be taken back, and
the leaders in the attack on the negroes
will be prosecuted. Many of the ne
grOeS had narrow escapes from bullets.

A MOB FRUSTRATED
In an Attempt to Lynch the Brutal As
sniIant of a Little Girl

sailant of Little Girl.
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 1.-The county
jail, situated in the center of the city.
was surrounded by a mob of 800 infuri-
ated people shortly before midnight
Monday night, thirsting for the blood
of Charles Bissow, who is confined
within its walls. The man is an all
round criminal, and his latest crime
was an outrageous assault on little
girl named Blanche Station, seven years
of age, living in the northeast part of
the city.
A few men gathered in the rear of a
saloon in the same portion of the city,
and this was soon added to. A descent
was made upon the jail by fifty sturdy
fellows, and in the march force of 200
men Joined.
The Jail, fimsy' old structure, was
easily entered, but the mob got no fur
ther than the strong doors of the Office
AT one time they were upon the point of
going into the Jail with the blows of
sledge hammers and prying crowbars,
but the sheriff and a posse officers
cleared the room by hard effort.
Once dispersed the backbone of the
gang weakened, and from them only
cries of I'VE want the BRUTE" Lynch
him." "Give him to u.s." etc., were
heard. The Office again filed, but there
was no further attempt at breaking into
the body of the jail.
Quick Work.
Bissow was tried Tuesday morning,
and in jiffy he was sentenced the full
limit of the law, twenty-one years. To
prevent further mob violence the COM
demned was instantly started for the
