what is the Evil of To-day ?

Here are many millions of people
who never have enough to eat from
one years end to another. Here are
many millions more with abundance
to spare after having satisfied their
cravings of hunger, but who never
have enough to wear. and who can.
not exchange their surplus food for
wearing apparel at such rate as to
pay them for making the food
There are millions more employed
and other millions working at pit
lance which will not pay for decent
shelter, much less for food. There
are mortgages hanging over nine
eleyenths of our homes, and our sur.
plus food and even our property
itself will not raise them. Why is
all this ? Because property will not
raise mortgages, it will not pay
debts, it will not buy clothes,
it will not buy food +; because labor
will not do any of these things,
either; because money alone can do
these things, and because it, money,
is so scarce as to be beyond the
reach of the many Custom, habit,
education, every business arrange
ment has made money necessary for
the running of the whole machine,
and sufficiency of money does not
exist in the reach of the people, and
consequently everything must stop.

The Power and Danger Of Concen-
trated Capital.

The vast plutocratic corporations and
combines will freeze out every man who has
made a fortune by honest means as soon
as be comes in their way, and they can
get their clutches on him. This is
being done all the time and increasingly by
the gorged but still greedy plutocracy, for
men of more than moderate fortunes are
being devoured by it every day.
The rule of the Triumphant Plutocracy
has entirely changed our old commercial
status. The lnan with one hundred thous-
and or four hundred thousand dollars capi-
tai is no longer lord of himselfan indepen-
dent. In any business he goes into he must
sink himself into tributary vassal to the
plutocracy or it will snuff him out. Strictly
speaking it is not men that are against him,
but he is at the mercy Of an evil system
which is constantly increasing in power,
and after he is dead it is able TO make his
despoiled children beg their bread. Mod
erately rich men of brains see this inexor-
able tendency and justly dread il. Intelli-
gent patriots ought 10 know, if they do not.
that they are short sighted fools in trying
to leave their children large Jumps Of
money, and then throw them on the mercy
Of an olioarchy of financial and commercial
aristocrats who every year decimate the
ranks of the well conditioned and comfort

for your children and grand children except
under equal laws that give everybody an
even show. We now live in a time when
the few are permitted TO rob the many by
grace of legal charters. There could be no
Observation-Disclosures men like Gould.
Vanderbilt and Rockefeller were this not
the case, and the fact that these enormous
fortunes were piled up by single men, in a
few years, proves concluslvely that our
present system for the distribution of wealth
is grossly inequitable, and while it exists no
man can count his property as stable and
secure and much less can he affirm with
certainty as TO that of his children.

Notwithstanding the strenuous

papers and managers to force tariff

Presidential canvass, the over

from circulating money and made
them higher denomination. They

enough on bonds to have built a

The Women in the Wilmington
Conference.

This year the women have con-
quered the conference and the vote
on the Nicely amendment--that the
second restrictive rule of the Disci-
pline, providing for the election OF
delegates to the General Conference,
shall have added to it the words,
sand said lay delegates may be men
or women"-was carried by nine
majority, the vote being So to So.
The vote was first taken on Monday
morning stood 60 for and Sc against,
but several of the preachers who
we're out were given the privilege OF
recording their votes when they re
turned. Five of the absentees voted
for the admission of women and
three against. The vote was an
nounced with applause. Last year
the opponents of women as lay dele
gates carried the conference by Is
majority. the vote being 70 to 65 10
this instance IS was an unlucky
number, for the verdict of last year,
which it represented, was reversed.
Everybody realized that much time
had already been taken from regular
conference work, and that which yet
remains is precious, so there was no
attempt at discussion. The roll was
not even called, so that each mans
vote would be recorded, but the vote
was simply taken by counting. Rev.
7. B. Nicely, one of the presiding
elders of the Philadelphia Conference
and the author of the amendment,
was last week elected a representa-.
tive in the General Conference,
where he will have an opportunity
to urge the adoption of his amend
ment. Philadelphia Conference
voted against the amendment-105
to 101. It's vote last year on the
woman question was 100 to SO
against.

.rhe 10 Cent Dol lar.

The latest fad among the old party ma
chine politicians is 70 cent dollar. This
altogether depends on what use you make Of
the article. If you want to make spoon
of dollrr it is worth probably about 70
cents. If you wish to use it as dollar il
is worth 100 cents. It all depends on the
maker. The government takes the bit Of
silver aud makes the dollar. The silver.
smith takes a similar piece in weight and
fineness and makes the spoon. There is
only one firm which makes dollar. That
firm has monopoly of dollar making, and
will make none of less than 100 cents.
There are many makers OF silver spoons,
hence the price often varies and is low or
high according to the demand for the raw
material. The government has monopo-
ly of dollar making and if any person in
fringes on that business and attempts TO
make dollars, he is Immediately sent to
the penitentiary to learn another trade.
Sometimes this monopolistic government
makes dollars out of gold and out of paper
but they are all of the same price, 100
cents. This never varies. There are no
20 cent dollars because the government
will not permit anybody to make them. DO
you see the point? And yet the great daily
papers which claim TO be the light of the
world publish Icing articles about 70 cent
dollars, and We send men to congress who
will make speeches in that august body
about 20 cent dollars. The plain people
are becoming ashamed Of these papers and
