A SHOW FOR VICTORY
The Coming Omaha Convention and the

July4 each and every delegate should
solemnly ask himself the question,
"What am l here forP" and if he be
the good and true man he should be
he will find some answer that accords

A. j. Streeter, the Union Labor
farmer candidate for president in 1888,
received 147,62l votes in the whole
United States. The prohibition can
didate polled nearly double that vote,
And yet there were millions Of men
who believed in the platform of the
Union Labor party and would have
voted for Streeter if they had thought
he could have been elected. Feeling
assured he could not be they cast their
ballots once again for their old parties.
If the peoples party at its Omaha
convention adopts an ultra radical
platform that scares away the millions
of honest and patriotic voters who are
now utterly Disguised with both of the
rotten old party machines, then will
we score contemptibly small national
vote.

What the Minneapolis Candidate for
Vice President on the Republic
can Ticket Is.
EMPLOYS "RlT' PRINTERS ON HIS PAPER
WhitelaW Reid and His AntagOnlsm to
Union LabOr...The Tribune
''Scab" Shop.

The following editorial, taken from
the Denver News, will slow the atti-
tude OF the republican candidate for
vice president toward union men:
The republicans have placed in nomina-
tion for vice president one OF the most per-
Ristent and determined opponents of organ
lied labor in the United States. MIR. White
law Reid is an autOcrat by nature and an
aristocrat by culture. Since the death Of
Horace Greeley he has controlled the New
York Tribune, and been its largest stock
holder as well as It's editor n-chief. For
eight years past the Tribune has been a
t'rat office"
In 1884, Mr.. Reid began war on the
Printers union by discharging the union
foreman and installing "rat" In his place,
who at once began to discharge union men
and replace them with traits" lhe New
York Typographical union took up the
matter, and after chapel meeting the
union men walked out. "Rat" printers
have been employed ever since in that office.
just previous to the campaign OF last fall
In New York, Mr. Reid claimed to have sent
q letter to President BOdwell Of New York
Typographical union, No. 8, to the effect
that at any time he president BodwelD
wished, he could put union force at work
IN the Tribune office; but no such letter was
received by President Bodwell until after
the election, when communication Of this
nature reached him. Well aware of Mr..
Reid's unfriendliness to the typographical
union, no union men have ever been sent to
the Office, and it remains, as it has been for
eight years, "rat" concern.
These are the plain facts of the case,
briefly stated, but they are well known as
true by every printer in the land. They
leave no doubt as to the hostility of the
republican candidate for vice president to
organized lahor-a hostility actively main
tanned for number of years and still per-
sisted in. The question for every friend OF
labor unions tins morning Is, will they vote
to place man in the second highest office
within the gift Of the American people who
has assumed such an attitude of enemity to
their organizations?

An American BiIIIonaire.

Ten years ago John Swinton made
the somewhat notable prophecy: "The
nineteenth century will witness an
American Millionaire"
At that time the richest man in the
nation was credited with being worth
6O,0OO,OOO in hard cash. Today we
are told that young William H. Van
derbilt, who has just died, was the
prospective heir of $40, 00O,000.
In connection with the demise of
young Vanderbilt the New York World
enters into some very interesting COM
putations of the prospective wealth of
this great family, allowing its invest
ments to continue as substantial as
they now are, and submitting for the
enormous profits now returned from its
great railway properties the modest
rate of 3 per cent.
Two years ago the wealth of the
Vanderbilt family was thus summar-
lied:

Draping Nude Figures.

While the worlds fair was under
discussion in the house the other day
Mr.. Butler of Iowa, suggested an am
endment for which the public has not
yet given Mr.. Butler the recognition
and glory he deserves. Here is this
amendment, shorn of unnecessary
verbiage: "There shall not be exhibit
ted in the Worlds Columbian EXPOSE
ton any painting which shall contain
a nude or partially nude figure. Nor
shall there be permitted to be exhibit
ted in the art gallery or in any part Of
the grounds any statute which shall
contain a nude or partially nude figure
or figures; but all such figures shall be
properly and modestly draped in such
manner as will confirm to the "Ameri-
can standard of purity in art" The
fact that Mr.. Buffers congressional
colleagues eargerly seized upon his
amendment and strangled it on the
spot does not signify that there are not
here and there persons who sympathize
with his intentions, if not with his sug-
gestions. There will always be people

COLONEL POLK DEAD.
The President of the Farmers AlIi-
ance Dead IN Washington.

The PRESIDENT OIL the FARMERS ALI"
ance Dead IN Washington.
WASHINGTON, June 11.-Colonel L..
l.. Polk, president of the farmers ALI
ance, died at Garfield hospital at Ills
o'clock this morning.
Colonel Polk was a relative of Presi-
dent Polk. He was native of North
Carolina, where he was born about
tifty-fve years ago. His education was
received in the common schools. Dur
ing the war he served for time in the
confederate army, and resigned to go
to the legislature, to which body he
had been elected. Later he filled for
several years the Office of commissioner
of agriculture for North Carolina, and
later still he began the publication of
the Progressive Farmer, which he
managed for long time. At the time
of his death he was receiving his third
term as president of the body to which
he has given so much of his time and
attention.
Colonel Folks home was at Raleigh,
N. G. He leaves a wife and three
children.
Colonel Polk was of great value to
his party as a stump speaker, and was
an able writer on topics of particular
interest to the farmers. The peoples
party will meet in Omaha in about a
month, and the probability is that had
Colonel Polk survived, he would have
been nominated for president of the
party, should it have decided to put a
ticket in the field.

Single Dahllas.

The growing of dahlias from seed is
one of the pleasures of gardening, and
the wonder is that the practice is not
more universal, since it is attended with
so little trouble in proportion to the sue
cess attained. A correspondent in The
American Agricultural explains that
seed sown in hotbed or in pans in the
house will make good Towering plants
by the middle of July; in fact, they come
into flower nearly as soon as when ths
roots are planted out in May. The
plants should be set in rows three feet
apart and foot apart in the rows, so
that if one-half of the plants produce
flowers that are not desirable they may
be thrown out, and the remainder will
amply cover the ground. A great cause
of failure in planting dahlias, as with
most other flowers, comes from plant
ing too closely. Plants must have room
for their perfect development. This rule
is generally disregarded, and as many
as twenty plants are allowed to occupy
the space that is but sufficient for one.

Helpful Hints.

For garden display the dwarf double
zinnias are commended. These are
easily grown from the seed.
The Souvenir de Congress pear is large
in size, good in quality and natures
early.
The French marigolds are free flower
ing and positive in their stripes and
markings.
Flatheaded borers, which attack the
trunks and branches Of trees which have
been sunburned, can be prevented from
so doing by protecting the bark on the
south and southwest side, by the use of
paper tree protectors or wrappings of
old paper or sacking, says the California
Fruit Grower.
Large gourds may be converted into
unique baskets and vases for ferns
vines and flowers.
