Home Trade.

The following gospel of home trade cxpoundcd by Western pa per, contains more truth than poetry
 l Thou shalt not go away from home to do thy trading; thou nor thy wife, nor thy sons, nor thy daughters, that they may deal with strangers who pay no taxes for thee.
 ,. Thou shalt patronize thine own merchants and manufactures, tha, they may also patronlze thee and bring prosperity to both.
 }. Thou shalt employ thine own mechanics that they be not driven from their homes to find bread for their little ones.
 1. Thou shalt consider him that is thy neighbor above him that dwell leth in strange town, when thou art in want of anything.
 ). Thou shalt do whatsoever lieth in thee to encourage and promote the welfare of thine own town and thine own people,
 6. Thou shalt not regard a penny when it standeth between thee and the duty to hlm that is thy neighbor.
 {. Thou shalt not suffer the voice of pride to overcome thee, and if drummers entice thee, consent thou not.
 s. Thou shalt spend thy earnings at home, that they may return whence they came and give nourish- ment to each as come after thee.
 2. Thou shalt not bear false wit ness against the own wherein thou dwellest, whether it be great or whether it be little, but speak we'll of it to all men.
 10. Thou shalt keep all these and teach them unto thy children to the third and fourth generation, that they be made to flourish and grow up in plenty when tlou art laid to sleep with thy fathers.

A Sensible Negro.

Rev. W. B. Derrick, of Rhode ls- land, after recent visit to the South, delivered an address in New York in which occurred the follow ing:
 There is still lots of killing down South, to be sure, but it is not nearly so bad as it was at one time, and mark my word it will soon die out en- tirely, if otiicious meddlers do not in- terfere too much. The immediate solution of the race problem, as far as it can he solved except by years, lies alone with the Southern colorcd voter. The remedy for his existing troubles is at his very hand. It is this: Let him combine where he is numerous enough to put liberal white men in office. Let him offer his suffrage to respectable members of the white community in whose manliness he has faith, and his troubles are over. Throw politics to the dogs. The Lord knows we don't make much out of it at the best The few offices we hold wouldn't support more than hand full of us. But help to elect good white men irrespective of their polit- ical creeds, and they are bound to grant all the negro ask-equality be fore the law He has no use fol that nightmare, social" equality He wouldn't make any use of it il he had it.
 Let us beg of Congress te let us alone, We don't want any specia legislation for our race any more than the Germans want it, or the Irish or any other people in the country. l, for one, am tired of see ing myself on the Senatorial dissec ting table every December, the mark for demagogues' dull wit.

Sacrifice.

This is life of sacrifices. Did you ever think about it: Whether you have or have not, it is true. l Self sacrifice is a law of our nature. It has been SO from the beginning of time. The most illustrous examples are given in Holy Writ. How the heart throbs and the eyes moisten as we see the venerable patriarch, with firm tread and stcadfast faith going to the mountain to offer up the child that God had given him. Is there anything more pathetic ill all history than the words of Isaac to Abraham And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am l, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood hut where is the lamb for burnt offering:
 And notiin sacred history alone are examples to be found. Leondas and the immmortal three hundred at Thermopyhr left an example of self-sacriIice that will go down to all generations
 But we need not consult the pages of history for examples of seIf-sacri- flee, In every household there are to be found plenty of instances The patient toiling mother making sacrifices for her children. The hus- band making sacrifices for wife and httle ones.
 Men sacrifice one thing to gain another. The boy must give up q large part of his play in order to ac. quire an education. The sailor must leave the pleasures of hls home among the vines and flowers before he can steer his ship into the distant ports and markets of the world
 There is one point however, that should be carefully guarded The object to he gained should be worth the sacrifice Fatal mistakes are of ten made right at thls point, In the hour of temptation, young man gives away He then sacrifices for what he thinks pleasure his man hood and his good name. This m,- take can never be corrected There is no earthly power that can cleanse q soiled reputation. Let the object be worthy and noble, then do all in your power for its accomplishment. - Selected.

M'GRATH ON MACUNE.

! The National Economist, edited by
 Dr. Macunc, as a pretended organ of the Alliance, is really the organ of the Ammidoun League of protected monopolists. Dr. Macunc's course in the conduct of his paper and in the Alliance generally, shows his strong sympathy with the men who furnished the Republican campaign fund of 1888. Though they do not operate in politics in person, these plutocrats are skillful politicians. - They saw the movement in the agri- cultural states, and understood that it threatened their control of money and trade. Unless they found some means to check or divert it, they could not hope to maintain either the high protective tariff or the National banks. They found in the so-called "Sub-Treasury bill' a means through which they could hope to distract attention from real issues while di- vidng the Alliance and bringing it into the discrcdit attaching to the fantastic scheme of "nationaizing crops.'
 Macune. has been invaluable to them. Through him one Alliance paper after another has been bought up. until the League of Protected Plutocrats can push it's plans through hundreds of thousands of copies of so-called Alliance organs. In a statement made public on Jul ' 18th, :, President McGrath of the Kansas Alliance uses this emphatic language concerning Macune and his methods {;
 II can heartily indorse anything that President Hall says about Dr. Macunc. He is a scoundrel, and 1 can say it without any hesitation, who has been working to break up the Alliance, and use it for his per sonal ends. There is not the slight est doubt but that he received a large sum of money from Pat Cal houn to help elect him as United States Senator, and he worked for him knowing that he was the hired attorney of Jay Gould, and knowing that to assist such man was direct ly contrary to the Alliance constitu- ton. l was on the committee with Mir. Hall at Ocala to investigate the charges against Macune. There was fully half of that committee of thirty two who stood with Hall, but he was the only one who had sand enough to stand for what was right. We held out until the last minute, but division of the committee threatened disaster to the organization. l re- luctantly consented to the majority report, but l never in my life sacri- feed my manhood 80 much as did when l acted against my conviction and consented to a whitewash of this consummate scOundrel for the sake of harmony. have always re- grctted it. and the last time 1 saw President Hall I told him that 1 could be depended upon to stand by him in his fight against Macune, and meant it. Other members will do the same.'
 This language of President Me Grath and the frequent warnings of President Hall of the Missouri Ali ance ought to convince the Alliance in the West of the necessity of send ing such men as the Macunes to the rear or into the camp of the monopo- lists where they belong, As long as it follows Macune the Alliance Is working in the interests of the tariff barons and their trusts by keeping in the foreground wild schemes which serve only to delay reduction of federal taxes and reform of the currency - St. Louis Republic.
