Party Spirits.

The party spirit. which prevailed
in the South and North in antebellum
times. seems to have a strong foot
hold in American politics. General
Weaver encountered the same spirit
in Georgia that shut the door of
Fanueil Hall in the face of Daniel
Webster and which enabled Stephen
A. Douglas to travel in the light of
his burning effigies from Boston to
Chicago. 1t is that spirit against
which Washington in his farewell ad :
dress, warned the country. It is that
spirit which every where prevails and
is encouraged by the leaders of the old
parties and their tools. which teaches
the political doctrine: Stick to par
ty right or wrong; don't throw away
your vote on third party. If you
can't vote the Democratic ticket vote
the Republican ticket; if you can't
vote the Republican ticket vote the
Democratic one. Stand in. boys OF
the old parties. let US keep the spells
of office in the happy gold-bug fam
lilies or these crazy silver looms will
cinch us both. "-Silver State.

The Lesson of History.

It is sad thought that men have
been establishing governments and
nations and building cities ever since
the beginning Of history only to have
them crumble into ruins. Egypt the
mother of nations and once brilliant
with her civilization is gone All
that remains of her splendid past are
lot of tanned and shrivelled num-
mics and few piles OF stones on which
innumerable lives and an ocean of
magnificent human energy were
wasted. What has been the trouble?
1t is to be found in the fact that men
cared nothing for anybody Or any
thing but themselves. The few were
unjust to the many. and the time at
last came when the ruling classes
were destroyed by their own search
for selfish qualification and the spirit
of the masses was SO crushed that
they were incapable of saving from
the wreck,what had been created. -Ex-

Make EN- Go!

During the Homestead Riots at
Homestead the old party politicians
got right up on their hind feet and
howled. the Pinkertons must go!'
Congress appointed an Investigating
comm1ttee-as if it needed junket-
ing trip to discover whether private
armies could invade state and draw
up in battle against a peaceable COM
munity. The Omaha platform of the
Peoples party. adopted before the
Homestead troubles took place. reads;
'.Resolved. That we regard the
maintenance of large standing army
of mercenaries known as the Pinker-
ton system. as a menace to our liber-
ties. and we demand its abolition. and
we condemn the recent invasion of the
Territory Of Wyoming by the hired
assassins of plutocracy assisted by
federal officers" /
Congressman Watson tried for
months before the riots to get bill
through congress which would make
thugs go-but the monopoly tools in
congress would have none of it.
But what of the investigating COM
mittee? Nothing. That is. the mat
ter was put off till the next session of
congress-til after election. And
then. if the workingmen think an old
party congress is going to deprive the
corporations of the privilege of en-
ploying thugs to shoot down working

This Is Sarcasm.

The Kansas bankers are meeting in
Topeka to-day. These are the men
who have to bear the brunt of the on
slaught by the Populists. and yet they
are the men who have in the past so
managed the monetary affairs of Kan
sas that to-day she is the foremost
Western state. They have always
stood up for Kansas and they always
will. Topeka State Journal.
This is fine-spun sarcasm. The
bankers have always stood up for
Kansas. and you might add. for the
United States, just as the Jew always
stood up for Venice. When civil war
burst upon the country with all its
dreadful calamities, there was the
patriotic banker ready to loan Uncle
Sam his cash provided he could get
as security gold bearing bonds. while
the soldier took his $13 month in
deprecated paper. When grasshop-
pers and drought visited Kansas.

banker was there furnishing money

Is per cent per annum. But there
are some good bankers-some excep-
tons to the rule although the good
ones don't seem to prosper as well as
the other kind. There were few who
went into the army or helped to care
for the widows and orphans at homo
instead of scheming to rob the gov
eminent and there were those who
have assisted the unfortunate in Kan
sas. If we could only regulate the
system so that honesty in the bust
ness would not be discouraged. the
banking fraternity would be one OF
the best in the world. Topeka Ad-

An Honest Ballot and a Fair Count.

An Honest Ballot and a Fair Count.
If there is one thing in which the
Republican party manifests more un-
adulterated gall than another it is in
their denunciation of fraud in cleo
tons especially in the South. and the
plea they enter to be continued in
power in order that the people of the
country may be assured of an honest
ballot and a fair count. In the name
of conscience if the people are not
now assured of these things whose
fault is it? If the Republican party.
after thirty years of power has failed
to do anything to secure an honest
ballot and fair count is it not about
time for it to stand aside. and let

The more wheat the cheaper; the
more dollars in circulation the
cheaper. measured in labor's products
The country got in debt when one
bushel of wheat would exchange for
two dollars; now through contrac-
ton of the currency. it takes two
bushels of wheat to get one dollar.
The man who contracted twenty years
ago to pay ST. 900 figured on the basis
that it would take about 800 bushels
to pay the original debt saying moth
ing about natural fluctuations in the
price of wheat. But to-day he finds
it takes 2. 900 instead of 500 bushels
of wheat TO pay the 81. 900 of debt.
This is not only true of wheat but Of
labor and all the products of labor.
This is caused by contraction. by the
money mongers, and they are striving
to get full control OF the power to Is

were unable to make the contract for
this number. The company now have

and 300 engines, and orders enough
to keep the mandatory running night

WHERE is THE SIGN I?

The Merchants of Hagerstown Asking
This Question of an Advertising gent.
" Last week an advertising agent
visited Hagerstown and called upon
the merchants and solicited them to
take space iii a handed signed, costly
framed advertising scheme, which he
proposed putting up in the postoffice.
His charge was 50 a space. 1t is said
he secured twenty four advertisements.
To each one it is alleged he promised
the upper right corner-the most con
spicious space. Later he called on
those who had contracted for space
with him and in a hurried manner
stated that he was compelled to leave
that night and the frame would go up
yet that day. He also displayed some
Of the advertisements which he had
nicely executed After receiving SO
he left a receipt signed &c. C. Earring
ton" Since then nothing has been
seen or heard of him. No advertise
ment appears in the postofGce. The
man cannot be found in any of the
hotels, and the interested merchants
are inquiring among themselves "have
we been taken in ~ 1t appears that
the gentleman contracted for the cree
ton Of the sign in the postoflice, in the
face Of the assurance on the part Of
postmaster Harter that no more signs
would be permitted in the building"

Hagerstown's Live Business Men Taken
in by sharper.

in by "a sharper.
The account in the Globe Thursday
concerning the peculiar transactions of
one sc. G.. Farrington,n advertising
agent, brings to light the location of
the sign and also reveals the unscrupu-
lous dealing of the agent. 1t failed,
however, to reveal the whereabouts of
the agent. 1t seems the man in solici-
ting merchants to buy space on the
sign to be put up in the postoffice, in
formed them his price was invariably
So space. This proves to be untrue.
From some merchants he got 81, D h
ers $3.50 and few SO. His frame
would only hold twenty-four adver-
tisements. He secured many more
than his number. He carried his sign
with him as he solicited, and always
had zone more space left," When the
last space was filled, he would take out
an advertisement, and go to the next
with the same story. In this manner
he must have secured dozen at least
more advertisements than the frame
would hold, He bought a gilt frame
from Mr.. Harry K. Slower, for which
he paid $4.75. He represented to his
advertisers that the frame was to cost
$15. When he found he could not
hang the sign in the postoffice he left
it at Mr.. Stover's and then left town.
The disappointed merchants are much
chagrinned as they look at the sign,
wonder where their advertisement is,
and also the man who, to all appear
ances, humbugged them.
