IMMIGRANTS HELD AT OTTAWA.
Not Permitted to Enter the United

OTTAWA, Ont, Sept 16.-The govern
ment has been apprised of the arrival at
Quebec of number OF immigrants from
Europe with through tickets for the United
states. The railway companies abso-
lutely refuse to allow the immigrants
to board the trains and the Immigrants
are simply stranded in the provincial cap
ital. They want to take possession OF the
federal immigration buildings, but the
government requires these buildings for
Canadian immigrants. Hence the foreign
bound arrivals are thrown on their own
resources. The difficulty will. it is
thought, only be solved by the steamship
companies taking these people back to Eu-

Strikes VS.. Silver.

The East, West and South are at
present struggling with strikes in their
very worse forms. Blood has been
shed as if on battlefield; troops have
been called out and United States citi-
zens shot down like dogs, and every day
brings it's intelligence of carnage and
riot that is fearful to look upon. In
every case, almost, these conflicts are
between labor and capital. The la
borer is oppressed, degraded and en-
shaved. The wealthy become more
wealthy, and by curtailing the circu-
lating medium their money almost
doubles in value and the condition of
the poor becomes more pitable. Party
philophers are moving heaven and
earth to find the cause of these revolts
among the people, and give everything
but the true reason, which they avoid
with the true instinct of the Pharasee
who passed by the wounded man on
the other side. The cause of all this
discomfort, this suffering and uprising,
however, is becoming more and more
apparent. 1t is because of the cur
failing of our circulating medium,
which enables the gold-bug and CAPT
talist to squeeze the small dealer and
producer at their convenience. 1t is
because half the money of the United
States has been destroyed, leaving the
people of the country at the mercy of
shylock money lenders and grasping
bondholders. The remedy is the re-
monetization of silver. In the end
this will be accomplished, and until
then we will have bloodshed and
strikes. Salt Lake Journal

on over 200 leading commodities that

Bear in mind that neither the tariff,
nor the force bill, nor negro DONNA
ton has anything to do with this state
of things.
What is the remedy? you ask.
There is but one. The people must
take matters in their own hands and
sweep from the face of the earth the
parties that have betrayed and sold
them to the usurers.
All the promises of the two parties
| are shams and delusions.
The previous House of Reprenta-
| tives spent at least one-half of its time
| in making a set of rules for partisan
| advantage, which the present House
| has spent one-third of it's time in re-
\ vising. Another third of its time has
| been frittered away in passing two or
three tariff bills which they absolutely
know can't pass the Senate or become
laws. Six months out of the eight
months session has been wasted in
sparring for political buncombe, and
the Republican minority has done
nothing but throw obstacles in the
way of the majority whenever, for a
day or two, it has occurred to it that
the people might be watching it.
The financial question has been be-
fore Congress since 1876, when the
fraud of 1873 was discovered, and it
is no nearer solution now than 16
years ago.
A majority of the present Congress
was pledged to restore the Finances,
and we have just seen how theybetrayed
their trust. If larger majority were
necessary the bankers would have
procured it.
Last session, when the Democrats
were out of power, they were wildly
in favor of free coinage. This year
with the power, they defeat it. It
would be exactly the same with the
tariff. Both parties do what their
masters, the money lenders, bid them.
The two old old parties must go. The
only hope is an entire change of pro-
gramme. Do not be deluded by the
cries of Tariff, Force bill, Negro dom
ination, or the billion-dollar Con-
gress," with which the newspapers
will frantically wrestle, and with which
the air will be rent from thousand
stumps in short time. All these are
but diversions to obscure the true
issue, and are based upon the presump-
tions of the money-changers that the
people are an ignorant multitude, with
no limit to their credulity.
The "tariff like the poor, we have
always with us, to take up when more
important matters are settled. The
"Force bill' was beaten by Republi-
Can votes, and would be again. The
"Negro problem will work itself out
Legislation cannot help it. And the
present Congress which shouts chill
ion dollar Congress" at the previous
one has already spent much more
money in the same length of time than
its predecessor.
The only thing that binds the old
parties together is the spoils. Cut
these bonds and they will fall to pieces
like the Gone Horse Shay"
The way to do this is to unite on
the Peoples party. We can win if
we try.
Our doubts are traitors
And make us lose the good we oft might

SOMETHING WRONG.
Which the Big Political Parties Re-
fuse TO Right.

Which, suU dig EOAAesS0a Il "a sA0o .eo
fuse 20 Right.
The following letter, from the pen
of Hon. M. J. Farrell, former well
known Republican of Lander county,
but now of Grass Valley, CAL, we
find in the Belmont Courier. 1t is a
plain but forcible statement of the
causes that are producing misery and
discomfort among the people:
When earth produces fair and bright
The yellow waving Corn,
And millions starve for want of broad,
There must be something wrong
With the grandest country in the
world, rich to repletion in all the ele-
ments of prosperity, society is rapidly
verging into two classes illionaires
and tramps.
There must be something wrong in
the system which make such a condi-
ton possible. The Democratic lead
ers will tell you that it is the high
protective tariff which is hurting the
nation to ruin, while the Republican
leaders tell you that the tariff is the
only thing that stands between the
people and slavery.
Both positions are decisions. If the
Democratic party had power to-day
they would not pass a tariff reform
bill that would be of any benefit to
the people. They would simply change
the benefciaries at the bidding of the
money power. Nor would tariff
for revenue only materially change
the situation to the consumer. 1t
would only transfer the benefits from
the ''robber barons" of Pennsylvania
and Massachusetts, to the ''robbcr bar
ons" of New York and Boston-from
the manufacturer to the importer.
The price of wheat has fallen from
81 so to 85 cents per bushel, and cot
ton has fallen from 10 cents to cents
per pound. Neither of them are
affected by the tariff, and both are
leading productions.
All other commodities have fallen
in like proportion, and the tariff has
had little or nothing to do with it, If
the tariff was the cause of the trouble
prices should have risen.
We must seek further the cause,
and it is not hard to find when we
have Invested ourselves of the leading
strings of the politicians, their en-
pleyers, the money-lenders and their
subsidized press.
It is found in the contraction of the
currency. With volume of money
commemorate with the business of the
country, prices and wages would be
high, business prosperous, and the
people would not stop to inquire
whether there was high or low tariff.
Since the demonstration of silver
prices have fallen nearly one-half, be-
cause gold has nearly doubled in value
The $5, 900 mortgage on the wheat
farm in 1873 has nearly doubled
5000 bushels of wheat would have
paid it then, while it will take nearly
5000 bushels to pay it now.
The $4,000 mortgage on the cot
ton plantation has increased more than
three-fold. 1t would require about
so, 600 pounds to pay it then-it will
take nearly 100000 pounds to pay it
now. And the end is not yet. 1t has
been shown by comparison of prices
