Farmers, have you ever thought of
how few representatives you have In
law-making departments OF our gov
eminent? Absolutely nothing, COM
pared to your numbers. Ought we to
complain so much Of class legislation
when we have not taken the trouble
TO see 10 it that We were properly rep
resented by our own class in the law
making bodies? The old adage holds
good in this instance when you
want thing half done, send your
servant to do it; when you want it
done well, go do it yourself" Let us
profit, brother farmers, by this old ad-
age in the future.

THE PEOPLE AGAINST THE PLUTO
Gratis.

THE PEOPLE AGAINST THE PLUTO
Gratis.
In the fight that is now on, there
are but two sides. 1t is the people
against the plutocrats; the man
against the dollar. There is no mid
die ground. You are either for the peo-
pie or you are against them. As the
fight now stands it is dangerous eX-
pertinent to press any personal opin-
ion or private conviction against the
manifest will and conviction of a clear
majority; because this creates OLSEN
sion i'm the ranks and gives aid to the
enemies of the people. The battle has
commenced, you can not change your
position now. If you withdraw from
one single point, it will be heralded
as a retreat, defeat. If any mis-
takes have been made in our platform
they must be reInedeu afte the bat
tie, after the victory is gained. Meet
the enemy at every point and fight
him. Have no mercy upon the trai
tor or the coward. Forward is the
word Catch it up and pass it along
the line, and close up the ranks.
WENT NOT WITH THEM TO THE WORK
There is small class of farmers
some few in every community through
out the whole country, who are tax
ing no part in the great fight against
plutocracy. Many Of them imagine
themselves too eminently respectable
to go into the ranks with the soldiers
some are so hide-bound with igno
rance and prejudice, that they cal
not work in harmony with any one
But if they have any conscience and
any selfrespect, what mast be their
feelings when they come to share the
benefits that have been purchased for
them by the labor Of others, labor
they increased by their opposition OIL
Indifference? The Patrons of Hus
bandry during their period OF active
life. though their efforts were not fol
political reforms to the extent Of the
Alliance, still accomplished a great
work for the farming and laboring
class, and that in spite Of the opposi
ton OF this same class of 'eminently
respectable farmers" who are now a
hindrance to the Alliance. This class
whether it knows it or not, is u rea
enemy Of the people and Of itself. II
is fighting on the side OF plutocracy
against the people.

Literary Notes.

THE October Century will contain a
frontispiece portrait of Rudyard Kip
ling and an article on his work by Ed
mund Gosse. Mr.. Gosse says that
kipling was born in Bombay in
Christmas week, 1865, and is therefore
only in his twenty sixth year.
In its November number the Cos
mopolitian will publish a series of let
tiers written by Gen. w. Il. Sh herman
to one of his young daughters, be-
tween the years 1859 and 1865 and
covering most Of the important events
OF the war of secession. These letters
present graphic pictures Of great
soldier amid some of the stirring
scenes in which he was a giant figure,
and in them the patriotic spirit of the
Federal general is seen to have been
most attractively tempered by
strong affection for the Southern
people. The fraternal feeling which
glows in these letters is in refreshing
contrast to the sectional bitterness
which characterized the period. and
they will constitute an interesting
and important contribution to the
literature of the war.

HELL AND THE ROAD There.

THERE is joy in hell whenever mel
lose their self-respect.
THERE are nofree passes given on any
OF the roads that lead to the pit.
The devil always keeps the hinges OF
the gate to the pit well creased.
THE first mile on the road to hell
looks as though it led straight to
Heaven.
PEOPLE who are on their way to
Heaven never stop to try to prove that
there is no hell.
If the devil couldn't make a lie better
looking than the truth, the way to the
pit wouldn't be SO crowded. Rams

A Royal Cup in Pawn.

If one of the Melbourne journals is to
be believed, says the Pail Mall Gazette,
in the shop of a pawnbroker in Swans
ton street, in that city, is a large gold
cup, the inscription on which states
that it was presented many years ago
to the prince consort. The duke of
Edinburgh and the two sons of the
prince of Wales are the only members
of the royal family who have visited
Melbourne.
