see that the lottery business as
well az other cussedness must go.

The Deer Creek Pilot doesn't
think that bard times Nave struck
in very deep on the Delta plantations

advances and make cotton this year,
justabout the same as they have been
doing, and farmers will go on about
the same as formerly, with the ex-
ception, perhaps, that few of them
will try little harder than usual to
make enough corn to do them. This
being the case, another large cotton
crop and correspondingly low prices
may be confidently expected, and
harder times next winter than now.u

The Republican national platform
declares for the maintenance of the
parity of value of the two metals"
used as money, $50 that the pur-
chasing and debt-paying power of
the dollar, whether of silver, gold or
paper, shall be at all times equal"
The hypocracy and villiany un-
covered in this will be better under
stood after we have read the history
of Republican Legislation on silver
since, and including, 1878.

And now comes Lord Carnegie,
who occupied the pulpit of a fash
ionable church in New York one
Sunday last winter, and expounded
the truth (?) on "The gospel of the
rich," with another reduction of
from 10 to 40 per cent. in the wages
of his workmen. The Cincinnati
Post Of Tuesday says:
"a bitter struggle between capt.
tai and labor is expected to begin at
the Homestead Steel Works of Car
negie, Phipps & Co., owing to a
proposed reduction of from 10 to 40
per cent in wages. The Carnegie
firm is preparing to put non-union
men in the workmen's places and are
making preparations for a long
SIEGE"
How nicely it has been done The
workmen kept yelling for '@protec-
ton and honest money" until Penn
sylvania has been flooded with for
eigners, who, from their habits and
mode of living, will consent to work
for less than an American, and by
the process of contraction to get the
"honest money" the small manu-
facturer has been swallowed up,
leaving the rich absolute masters OF
the situation. A little more "prO-
lection and honest money" and
Pittsburg will be good ground for
missionary work by our Peoples
party speakers.-Plow and Hammer.

THERE being nothing at stake in
the campaign but boodle-principle
having been relegated to the rear
the Republican circus will take the
road to show some grand and lofty
tumbling protection and reciproc-
ity-protection to New England
factories and reciprocity with Brazil
for the products of her farms. The
band-wagon will make grand dis
play, but Elkins, Mosby and the
other guerillas should be with the
show to make it complete. Then
there would be "some thrilling
music"

IT is evidence of the presence OF a
great amount of gall for Che New
York Tribune to say that: "lt is
now generally conceded that the
denomination Of the president was
largely due to the influence OF the
business interests of the country"
Lawyers, doctors, loan agents,
money-changers, and others of that
line of business interest, II is well
known, controlled the convention.
The wealth-creatOrs were not rep
resented, nor were their interests
considered.

For the last two or three months,
the plutocratic sheets have been
busy telling US that the Alliance
congressional convention OF the TIN
district would turn Jerry Simpson
down that he would meet with such
decided and general opposition IN
in the district that his name would
not come before the convention,
which was just about as near the
truth as they ever get. II Jerry
was not thorn in the side OF each
one of the plutocratic devils, they
would not notice him. He is the
superior of any of his tradacers, and
has not been turned down by the
entire vote of the convention, or any
part of it. He will teach them pat
riotism for another two years.

servative organization will decide
to go into politics little after all.

If you want to touch Republic

English and American brigands to
rob the people-when Thad Stevens,
VIM. d. Kelley, Spaulding, the his

at the time, and said there was.
His own witnesses are against him,
