Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1892-03-24

If man spends twenty cents a
day for cigars or beer, who is to
blame if his children go barefooted
and his wife wears "a ragged wrap!
American Homestead.
No one but himself. Twenty
cents day will make $l.4O week
and $3.50 per year, and so do many
spend their earnings; but such are
not the men who are now laboring
for the uplifting Of the common
people. Beer drinkers are not re-
formers, but in a general way are
the reverse. Twenty cents a day is
a great drain upon resources. 1t is
the exactions of close combina-
tions against which the people are
arrayed. They object to being rob-
bed. The laborer who husbands
his resources is robbed front and
aft by law and is much in excess Of
twenty cents day; then who is to
blame if "his children go barefoot
ed and his wife wears ragged
wrap" Answer, friend Newberry.

CAPITAL is concentrated in the
cities and centcrs of trade, to enable
capitalists to control the. products
of labor, both agricultural and me-
chanical, and from thence goes forth
weekly, in the columns Of papers
owned or controlled by capitalists,
that trade is booming.

WlrH 81 900 millionaires and 65,-
600, 900 nominal freemen! the
result of the conflict now on be-
tween capital and labor cannot be
doubted when the masses become
awake to the enormity of the crimes
committed under the cover of law.

LONDON, March 11.-[Special. l-Yester-
days vote in the commons, giving the Sal
vation Army free scope to parade in
Eastbourne, promises issues which the
supporters of tha motion never con-
templated. The debate awoke the men,
ory of the Irish members to the fact that
the Catholic emancipation act of 1899 for
bids Catholic exercise of the ceremonies
of religion except inside of places of wor-
ship. Patrick O'Brien will move in COM
mittee extension of toleration of open
meetings and professions to the people of
all religious persuasions within East
bourne. As an outcome of the local bill q
larger measure, amending the act of 1929,
will be introduced, by which the powers
held by all the authorities in Ireland and
by thirty-six of the greatest in England to
prevent religious professions will be
abolished.
The prospect of the appointment of a
successor to the late Cardinal Manning
has led to a discussion in Masonic circles
on the recognition of British Free Masons
by the Catholic church. Sir Charles Dixie
contends that the time is opportune for
Catholics in England and the colonies to
appeal IN favor of Free Masons, with their
harmless symbolic rights and secret So
cieties under the ban of the Vatican.

IN THE HOUSE.
Another Day of Tariff Debate, With
One Amusing Alteration.

WAsHINGToN CITY, March 1.-THE tariff
discussion in the House today was more
than usually interesting, and there were
several lively passages which fOrcibly re-
minded one of the fierce political scenes
OF the past congress, when this al-absorb-
ing issue was at the front The speeches
Of today on both sides were well fortified
and listened to with great deal Of atten-
tion by the members. The somewhat
unique spectacle of the largest individual
wooden manufacturer in the United States
arguing in favor of the free wool bill was
presented when Stevens OF Massachusetts
took the floor in support of the
Springer bill. The Democrats
paid close attention 10 his
remarks, greeting his arguments with ap-
plause No less hattering was the atten-
tion paid 10 Montgomery of Kentucky.
and the eoloquvs in which he became en-
gagged during the day showed him an able
defender Of the work of the committee.
Brookshire of Indiana took occasion in
the course OF his speech TO denounce the
"so-cal.ed reciprocity scheme OF the Re-
publican party as a delusion and u snare.
Ray Of New York, the chief Republican
orator Of the day. succeeded in provoking
more ttial tiit uSt4i pal tNiAl St.4lf- anu

with Representative Meredith Of Virginia
might surpass parliamentary bounds.

committee Of the whole on the free wool
bill, and was addressed first by Stevens of
Massachusetts,.

benefit alike the manufacturers or woo.en
goods and Ihe great mass Of the American peo-

An Oxford BIackmaiIer Sentenced

LONDON, March 1.-THE trial of Matt
land Francis Moreland, the aged oxford
tutor accused of attempting to blackmail
members of the nobility, took place today
When Moreland was arraigned he pleaded
guilty to the charge of attempting to ex-
tort money from Earl Russell. The pris-
oner was sentenced to ten years penal
servitude. This is equivalent to life SEN
tence for Moreland, now IS years old. It
was shown by the prosecution that the
prisoner, under the names of Maitland
and Moreland, wrote to a number of young
members of the nobility, representing
himself as young and fascinating widow,
who, for money consideration, would be
willing to assume immoral relations with
them.

Guarding against Foot Disease.

WASHINGTON City, March 11.-Uneasi-
ness is felt at the agricultural department
on account of the serious outbreak of foot
and mouth disease in Great Britain. The
disease does not exist here now, but as
many sheep are imported from Great
Britain it is feared it will be introduced
by them in spite of the quarantine. If the
disease continues to prevail in 5reat Brit
ain it will probably be necessary for this
government to entirely forbid the importa-
ton of sheep and goats until the outbreak
is suppressed.
