Plow Boy: If this is a government
Of by and for the common people
why is it that government troops are
always at hand to protect the
privileges granted by the state to

Peoples Star: General Weaver is
keeping up his record as a fighter
He is in the hottest portion of the
contest and will stay until the poles
are closed next November. With
such pair as Weaver and Field to

Topeka Advocate and Tribune
The labor troubles that are just now
disturbing the peace OF the militia
men OF New York. Pennsylvania and
Tennessee are becoming matters Of
grayesignifcance. If anybody thinks
thereis no politics in the case he will
learn better before long. This labor
g sstion is the essence OF politics.

Chicago Express: The Peoples
party are met with the profound ar
gument' that its members are calam.
ity howler5. George Washington and
his bare footed army of patriots at
Valley Forge were calamity howlers
except MAJOR Andre and Benedict
Arnold. They betrayed their home
and country by selling out for gold to
an old party.

Journal OF the Knights OF Labor.
Pick up almost any Republican paper
in these days OF strikes and you will
lind. a statement to the effect that
there are plenty of idle men eager to
take the places OF the strikers Then
turn to the political column and you
will find that so great blessing has
the Mckinley bill been. workingmen
are fully employed. "A funny old
thing is the tariff.
Coming Crisis: 1t is claimed that
Chris Magee the Pennsylvania Re-
publican boss sent cable appeal TO
Carnegie to settle the trouble with
his workmen at Homestead, as it was
iniuring the Republican party. A
word to laboring men; Don't strike
now if you can avoid it. Wait until
November s, and then go on a general
strike-strike at the polls and knock
putocracy silly in just one round.
Southern Mercury: While the Farm.
ers Alliance and every labor organi-
cation in this country composed of
white or colored people were fighting
the force bill' solidly and heroicaly,
Mr.. Cleveland was as dumb as an
oyster but when they were aiding the
Democrats with all their power to
secure the free coinage OF silver and
were on the eve of securing it; Mr..
Cleveland wrote letters and used all
the influence at his command to de.
feat it and succeeded.

The Toiler: Grover Cleveland in
his speech to the committee let this |
slip; I'VE see the farmer listening
to delusive story that fills his mind
with visions OF advantage while his
pocket is robbed by the stealthy hand
OF high protection. 1t seems that
we have heard a 'delusive story"
about the tariff as the Mills bill only
proposed 4 6-10 per cent reduction.
and the present Democratic house
never once tried to take the stealthy
hand oil protection from the de.
