THE UNDER DOG.

Editor CLARIoN.-I am well aware that
whoever espouses the cause of the ''under
dog i'll fight" is going to tread thorny
| path. And yet if we are not capable of do
ing justice to the most ignorant among us
we are incapable of doing justice to each
other and must degenerate into waring
factions and pass to our doom-to the doom
that awaits those who disregard the rights
of others.
Under the heading Property owned by
Negroes" it is pointed out that the total
value of all property held by negroes is
S6,793227, out of a total of s105, ,713,6 ,655. The
Times-Democrat ought to have gone fur
ther and pointed how much of this wealth
was produced by negroes. / have no data
by me but | venture to assert that 9I10 of
the sugar, n of the cotton and rice and
corn and root crops, were produced by ne
groes. Now if the TimesD Democrat viii
contend that means to produce were adj
vanced by the whites, ask whence came
the means if not out of the total surplus?
All wealth is produced by labor and can
be produced in no other way. The state
nent shows that somebody has been get
ting tremendous lot of wealth that was
produced by negroes. Unless it can be
shown thatrobbery is honorable. the It'd. s
statement is not creditable to the ruling
class"
jay Gould possesses values to the amount
of 300 100000; nearly three times as great
as the appraised value of all property in
Louisiana. But we know so far from Jay
Gould having produced this, he has done
the reverse; he destroyed values to the full
amount of his present wealth. And by
controlling arteries of commerce, he has
prevented the production of wealth to a
like amount. Jay Gould is about as use
ful to society as an elephant to wheat
field. The animal doesn't consume so
much, but the destruction he commits is
enormous.
My grandfather gave me a negro boy to
help me hoe corn. My father was away
from home six days in the week. Jake
and had royal time hunting and fish
ing. My father concluded that Jake was
bad property, and to get rid of two nui-
sances at one stroke, sold Jake and sent
me to school on the proceeds, If he had
sold me and sent Jake to school, the world
at large might be great deal better off, be-
cause | always thought Jake superior to
any boy | ever saw. At any rate, he did as
he liked with me. Ii am somewhat su-
perior to some of my neighbors in point of
mental development, the fact is due to the
piracy perpetrated upon my companion
The contemplation of the fact doesn't in
lame my vanity. l think it has much to
10 with turning my sympathies to the un-
Ter dog in the fight. D. c. David.

FARMERS VIDETTE.
Dear Sir and Brother-In the great bat
tie which is being waged in the world, and
perhaps the most important part of which
is being fought in our country. / have been
a worker for twenty years or more. Al
though always Democrat, working in its
ranks and voting for its candidates have
been convinced for many years, that when
our country should make the step that
would place her on the next higher plain
of social and political development, it
woufd not make it under the auspices of
that party, in which the political life of
most of us has been Loyalty spent
In the contest so far, have not often
obtruded myself ormy opinion ON the read
ing public, although often feeling, that
things were being auth0ratdtireIN said by
some persons in print and going uncon-
tradicted. what were when boiled down,
nothing but the yeriest personal dogma
tism; and sometimes entirely destitute OF
the authority of reason and experience
Again, have often noticed with surprise
and regret, that many occupying positions
as teachers and trusted leaders and expo
nents of reform doctrine, seem to be behind
the march Of economic thought, instead of
{tadiaq, and we have the anomaly CT cal,-
