National View.
Senator PETER is native of Penn

education. He began life teaching
school in the winter and working on
a farm in the summer. He possess.
ed progressive ambition, which in
duced him to migrate to the Plat
Purchase in Northwestern Missouri
When call was made for men to :
defend the country's flag he at once
responded and served in various
responsible positions with distinc-~
ton. His mind was very active
and he used all of his spare time in
studying law. Soon after the close
of the rebellion he settled in Kan
sas and began the practice of law
and editing newspapers. His de-
sire to aid the industrial people
prompted him to b come a close stu.
dent of political economy. When
the recent political revolution broke
out in Kansas Mr.. PETER enlisted on
the side of the wealth-producers,
which gave him prominence all
over the state, and when the Peo-
ple's party secured control of the

has been an Industrious senator, ad-
vocating measures which, if enacted
into law, would give general re-

William Alfred PETER will always
be remembered as the first reform
senator from Kansas. May he live
long to promote the principles he
has so ably championed and enjoy
their many blessings is the prayer

Now, this hurts somebody. Who
| Well, if the merchant has made goo,
collections from his "time custom
crs," he saves his bacon. They ge

of excessive cost of the money an,
the corresponding shrinkage of tn
commodity has been SO heavy ant
has been going on so long that tn
country is impoverished? Then thu
"time customer" is not able to pay
What then? That merchant goe,
to the wall. Isn't that so? Ant
isn't that our condition almost uni
versally?
Every merchant in this lane
ought to study these questions seri
ously and honestly for himself. We
claim that the financial system of to
day is entirely wrong. That mon
ey does not increase as commodities
and trade increase. Therefore that
money obtains the advantage over
commodities. That the dollar con.
stantly commands greater amount
of commodity. That the debt con.
stantly grows bigger because it re.
quires more produce to pay it.
That, therefore, the capitalist domi.
mates the worker, and constantly ex.
acts more of his work. .
Few country merchants are max.
ing any money. The fires which
have desolated the country are
swiftly whirling towards the towns.
Only the man who buys on short
time, in small quantities, and sells
quickly and for cash, is keeping
ahead.
Ask your stubbornest Democratic
merchant if that isn't so. Then
ask him why it is 80.
That merchant who buys large
stocks of goods, carries them for
long periods and sells them on cred
it finds it harder to meet the end of
the year than ever before. Ask him
if this isn't so, and then ask him
why?
The commodity shrinks and the
dollar swells.
That's what's the matter, and our
merchants will all see it some of
these days.
Instead Of hating US, abusing us,
and ridiculing US, the merchants of
the country ought to bid us God
speed. We are fighting for their
homes and firesides as well as our
own.
