sphere.
The Aetnas of this place, kid nine,
administered most telling defeat to
Waukegan nine Sunday. The score was
20 to f. The Waukegan boys then made
the absurd proposition to play the Park
Citys for $500 and promised to send
representative here Monday night but the
fellow failed to show up. OF course
Waukegan knows they can't travel in the
Kenosha class

FINANCES AND SINGLE TAX.

Editor UNIoN:-I might adduce much
evidence to prove to Judge MCGEE that
the mount OF money in circulation has
more potenency in determining interest
and the price OF labor and laborer's
product than any other one thing, and
! might say than all things else.
will say that Rome at her decline
and fall was reduced to less than one,
fifth the money circulation which she
enjoyed during the years of her greatest
prosperity. The historian, Ricardo,
says, ..by limiting the amount Of money
it "a be raised to any conceivable
value" The United States monetary
commission, containing United States
Senators Boutwell,, Bogg, Gibson and
Bland, said, sThe true and only cause
OF stagnatie.n in industry and com
merce noweyery where is the fact every
where existing, of falling prices caused
by the shrinkage In the volume OF
money They continue and say, Gan
increasing value in money and falling
prices are more fruitful Of misery than
war, pestilence and famine"
John Stewart Mills says, ftIf the whole
money in circulation we're doubled.

81. We stand by the deliverances
hitherto issued by our church upon the
temperance question, a summary of
which has proved our committees most
popular tract, and We enjoln our minis
tiers and our people to abate nothing in
their zeal and effort in or out OF the
churches, to check the drinking habits of
society, and by effort, voice and vote to
oppose the traffic in intoxicants as a
beverage, believing with intensified con-
viction that it is a direct ~inexcusable
curse to our country and our age"
"2. While, as a Church, we neither
advocate o a%ntagonize any political
party-we earnestly commend to our
ministersand people as Christian citizens,
such vigorous persevering efforts, as
may seem wisest to them, toward the
enactment in every state and territory,
OF statutes which shall hopefully secure
entire prohibition OF traffic largely re-
sponsible for the bulk OF the drunken
ness, crime, pauperism and social mis-
cries which afHict our land"
So. That we, as an Assembly, assert
our conviction that the love OF God for
the sinner, as applied to the conscience
by the convicting, converting and sane
tifying power Of Gods Spirit and truth,
is the inebriate's only hope OF salvation
and assurance OF all true reform."-Min-

prices would double. il it were increased
only one-fourth, prices would increase
one-iourth." will stop with these be-
cause this question is hardly denied by
standard writer's.
/ will o call the Judges attention
to the profit the money power had made
OF the SOC, 1000 900 OF English gold that
Ernest Seyde, the German-English bank,
brought oyer in 1873 to buy govern
ment ~ securities and bolster up re-
sumptions, procure and act OF congress
to demonetize and restrict silver so 1T
would not be legal tender to pay bonds.
See the result, nearly $4,000, 600. 900 Of
interest has been rung from the sweat Of
tile producer to pay bondl,olders, be-
side more than $20,O00,OO0 premium
on bonds, and thousand of business
men bankrupt; and 100000 laborers
ON the tramp hunting work, besides
nor than S4,O00,0O0, 900 OF mortgages
ION western and southern farms that
are drawing $500, OoO,O 900 interest per
year" The purpose OF demonetizlng
silver was to make money scarce and
times hard; to make wages low and the
products OF labor cheap.
/ don't think that comment is neces-
sary to satisfy the most i%ncreduIous
that there is and has been a conspiracy
OF the money power to INVADE the in
dustries and gather up their earnings.
All this was made possible by reason of
reason OF the fact that corruptgovern-
ment had both openly and secretly
conived with the guild of chartered rob
bers and allowed them to make u mo-
nopoly OF the money that belongs to the
whole people. Is it any wonder three
fourths of all the farms IN the United
States are under m~ortage? That debt
has so increased that the earnings of in
dustry is unable to meet the interest
charges? That the oppressive heel of
the money powerFis firmly planted upon
.the breast OF the Goddess OF Liberty?
That tie student OF history recalls the
waning days OF the Mcdo-Persia, Greece
AMI Rome? That TIE luxurious few be-
gin to ape the aristocratic fashion OF
eastern nations and sigh for a monarch?

TAXATI0N

Editor UNIoN:-All earnest reformers
note with pleasure the awakening OF the
people to the evils under which we all
suffer. Just now the evils of unequal
taxation are receiving attention, there
fore q few suggestions may not come
amiss.
All taxation should be as direct as
possible. If direct taxation had been in
practice for the last thirty years, the
farmers and laboring people would not be
in the condition they are'in today. They
would not have voted all the produce of
their labor into the hands of a few,
neither would they have elected a con-
gress that could have the hardihood to
appropriate one billion dollars OF an
Impoverished peoples money. If we are
to devise a new method Of taxation, let
us shun all indirect taxes. 1t is true
that all taX-eaters claim "the people
are averse to direct taxation. That
is what we have been educated to be-
lieve, and why? Because with direct
taxation people would be more inqulsi-
tive as to what becomes of the money
thus raised. Another fact which should
not be overlooked is, that no system
can by any possibility be worst than
our present one. The farmer now owns
fifteen per cent OF the nations wealth
and pays eighty-five per cent OF all taxes.
What is there can be devised worst
than that. Let us also remember that
no laws can be passed which will make
men honest. The best that can be done
in that direction is to inspire fear; if
found out. The millennium is too far
of to trust to mems consciencos when
the assessor comes around.
Therefore in devising an effective
method of taxation let us carefully
study the principles OF the single tax.
Let us not condemn it because we do
not understand it, but let us investigate
and compare possible results, tina t which
cannot be hidden away, to known re-
suits from trusting to mems consciences.
Let us also remember that we cannot
tax capital without the laborers and
borrows suffer the consequences. Let
us be sure we are right. then go ahead.

THE FARMER AND POLITICS.

The farmer as a rule has had very
little to do with the political features OF
our government and in making the laws
under which he is governed. He has
heretofore been silent on all OF the great
questions pertaining to the interest and
welfare OF this nation. He has passed
them by and put them to one side as
questions OF little Importance. He has
been putting it off from year to year UNI
til now he is beginning to realize that he
has been neglecting his duty as an Amer
lean citizen in not standing up for and
maintaining and practicing the rights
that belong to him. The farmer need
not expect that laws will be made and
executed in his interest unless he pushes
himself to the front and sees to it that
men are elected to fill the various Offices
that are in sympathy with the laboring
man.
The farmer has a great deal to learn
besides blowing, harvesting grain and
feeding stock. He must understand
that there are two classes Of people in
this world; one that will work and earn
their bread by the sweat of their brow,
and another that depends on labor and
industry for their support. Now it is
an assured fact that there is nothing
made OIL produced without labor and in
dustry. And very well should labor and
industry know that there is a useless
hoard Of bankers, brokers, lawyers, cor
porations, mOnopolies. trusts, combines,
commission merchants and professional
politicians that are continually drawing
a luxurious support by a lot Of hellish
laws that were planned and brought
into existence at Il time when robbery
and corruption had no bounds. The
farmer has got to shake Off these blood
thirsty leeches and N Of his first duties
should be to relieve them OF all respon-
sibility in connection with this govern
ment and it's affairs. The farmer has
got to take q more active part in the
political questions than he has done
heretofore. Let him examine the wicked
and unjust legislation for the past thir.
tY years and zee the results in the i'm.
poverished condition OF the masses.
Let this state OF affairs go on unmo.
Tested for quarter OF a century longer
and the laboring classes would be
brought down to debased slavery by the
concentration OF capital and the hellish
deeds and the skin-em-to-the-bo bone pro-
cess that is worked upon the people.
This state OF affairs staring the farmers
in the face should prompt them to
action. They cannot successfully COM
pete with such combinations unless they
come together, think together, act to-
gether and vote together. The farmer
has got to stand up and fight for his
rights if he expects to have any. We
don't want the fruits OF your labor, Mr..
Capitalists and Mr.. Politician (f you
ever have snch(, but we want the fruits
OF our own labor and 'by the eternal"
we will have it. U. S.. ALLISON.

as much space to extreme puffs oil tie

all residents, farmers, mechanics or bus
