End Of "A Long Trial.

DENVER, Col. April 29.-The famous
Millington murder trial ended to-day,
the Jury going ont at $40 p. NJ. This
case Is the most noted one ever tried in
the West. June >, 1850, Wm. Avery,
a wealthy citizen of Fort Collins,
Col, died. Twelve days after his
widow was secretly married to Frank
Alllington, of the same place. Rumors
were soon after rife to the effect that
Avery had been poisoned by his wife,
Frank Mlllington and his sister Dollie,
a young girl Is years old. They we're
arrested and the case was brought here
on charge of venue. Part of the evi-
dence had been taken when one of the
jurors was taken sick, which necessi-
tated a new jury and the trial was gone
over aGain. One hundred and seventy
six witnesses Were examined and the
evidence was very sensational. At .
O'Clock tonight the jury brought in a
verdict of not guilty.

Short on Corn.

Br. Won Butticher, secretary of the
German imperial home office, in the
Reichstag, replying to question, on
4th. a. to how the government intended
to relieve the pressure being felt by the
people owing to the high price of corn,
said that it was impossible 10 discuss
the matter pending commercial arrange
lnents which were being made with 9th
er states. The crop prospects of the
world generally, said DIR. Won But-
tlcher, We're not bad in view of the i'm
proyement recorded during the last few
days. 1t was not yet fully known what
quantity of breadstufis were available.
but DIR. Won Butticher hoped that it
would suffice to meet the requireme nts.
Should this not be the case the govern
ment would take special measures to re-
lleve the pressure without losing sight
Of the farming interests of Germany.

Reports received at Kansas City,
Mo-, from sixteen of the principal
at-growing counties of Kansas.
Brown, Dickinson. Boston, Sumner,
Saline, Lincoln and Ford counties re-
port that the wheat is turning yellow
from some unknown cause. The re-
port says those counties will not yield
more than from half to two-thirds of a
full crop. Reno County reports much
damage from the Hessian fly. Show
rell County reports many fields unfit to
cut. The new bug" appears in sever
al counties where the wheat is turning
yellow. Several counties report dam
age from drought. The cooler weather,
accompanied by showers in Kansas to-
day, Will undoubtedly be a great benefit
to the wheat crop. Notwithstanding
the excessive rainfall of the past three
months there are many places where
rain Will do great good now.

we CLEAN the following:
The total number of acres cover

1904 or 3l.O4 per cent. Of the
total number of assessed acres (;
1925 per cent. of village and city

The Coming Climax.

A most remarkable political bro
chure, afd one which promises to
create decided sensation, is now
in press for early issue by Charles
II. Kerr & Co., of Chicago. The
author, Lester G. Hubbard, is editor
of the Farmers Voice, and stands
in the very front rank Of the leaders
of the Peoples party, having been
recentlp chosen chairman of the
central executive committee for Hi
nois. The significance of the forth
coming pamphlet, which will be
entitled "The Coming Climax" lies
in the fact that it gives frank and
fearless summing up Of the elements
Of danger in the present political
and social conflict between pluto
Gratis and workers. 1t is addressed
to the people of cities, and embodies
forcible, direct and definite state
ment of the claims of the new
party on city people. This bro
chure will be the first step in the
organization Of the Peoples party
in Chicago and other leading cities,
and it will doubtless be eagerly
sought for. 1t will appear as the
seventh number of Unity Library,
and will retail at fifty cents in paper
and dollar in cloth.

from breaking their old political
necks. Gentlemen, it's breaking.

That Load of Beer.

The Inter Ocean, Republican or
gan, gives a glowing account OF a
special freight train that recently
left Milwaukee consigned to San
Francisco house. Had that special
train been loaded with corn or
wheat, the product OF the common
farmer in the country, consigned to
some market, the public would new
er have heard of it through the
Inter Ocean. Corn and wheat, you
see, are commodities. They are
the staff of life for both man and
beast land country. But what
about that special train? Why, &C
cording to the Inter Ocean, it was a
train loaded with bottles of Milwau-
kee beer, decorated with flags and
streamers. Suppose a Peoples
party man, farmer, shoulu COME W
the Garnett Mills with wagon
load of the cereal of food, all deco
rated with flags and streamers, the
great railroad attorneys, Trigg&Co.,
would howl "bad economy! eXtrava-
Cancel" never a word would be
heard or published from those tel-
lows. or any of the leaders of the
Republican party against allowing
the American flags and streamers to
be disgraced by decorating train
with them that is loaded with a
commodity that wrecks life, and is
also one of Shylock's machines for
robbing labor and saving the life or
existence of the g.. o. p.

How is this, Mr.. Republican !!
Don't you tell laboring men to vote
for protective tariff THAT in doing
so, they are voting for their homes
against British capital and low
wages? Don't you tell them that
the Mckinley tariff is building up
great industries in this country I!
Now, why is it that you fail to tell
the laboring men that British capital
is laying it's hand on these indus
tries, and are now operating many
of them in this country? Is it not
brazen piece of deception on your
part to keep these facts hidden from
those laborers Is it not dishonest
in you to be guilty of going to the
laboring men these factories owned
by British capital, and telling them
to vote for protective tariff in the
interest of labor against British
capital and low wages? Amt you

Almost Together.


found in the fusion of the two old
parties that is being contaminated
in different parts of the country.
Nothing save realizing sense OF
their danger and the necessity for a
desperate fight for selfpreservation
would ever force these old enemies
of thirty years and more to combine
against what they are pleased to
call common foe. By so doing
they make two important admis-
sions. First, of their wavering
strength, and second, the absence
! of an important issue between them.
These are cOnfuSions that Indicate a
complete change of men and meth
DDS, or final disruption or disinte-
grafton. 1t discloses want OF
confidence in themselves, and Is an
acknowledgment of the power OF
the reform movement. In the last
election Democrats and Republicans
Joined in not few instances to de-
feat Alliance candidates. At the
present time the Democrats of the
counties of Adams, Bolivar and
Sharkey, in Mississippi, have united
with their old-time opponents
against the Alliance and support
three Republican candidates for rep
resentative. In Kansas number
of Judges have been nominated by
fusion of Democrats and Republic
ans to defeat the Peoples candl-
dates. In the Tenth congressional
district of New York the Republic
ans endorsed the Democratic nomi-
nee. In Ohio, Governor Campbell
said if you can't vote for me, vote
for Mckinley. The New York Sun
says, eff Democrat cannot be
elected in Ohio, by all means return
John Sherman. All this goes to
show that the two old parties are
going to join issues in an effort to
defeat the reform movement as their
only hope for existence, and if sue
cessful, divide as before on the same
old lines and continue their work OF
oppression and deception. This
condition of affairs must obtain be-
fore any true reform work can be
successful. 1t is the natural out
come of the perfect work of educa-
ton. By joining together in this
manner, the two parties disclose the
hollow mockery of their professions,
and it is positive proof of their n.y.
pocrisy and deceit. Such action
will tend to disgust and drive into
the reform movement many honest
and independent members of both
parties who place country above
party and the welfare of the people
beyond political success. The usu-
