They Stand for Prohibition.

The Young Peoples Society of
Christian Endeavor, representing a
membership of some 100000, and
whose annual convention of some
10000 delegates met in New York,
adopted the following resolutions:
"Recognizing in the liquor traffic the
giant evil of our day:
"Resolved, That we condemn in
temperance in every form; that we
stand for total abstinence, for the sup
preston of the saloon, and for the de-
thronement of its power in the politics
of our land.
'.Resolved, That we join in the petit
tion which is being sent to the govern
mcnts of the world asking them to
raise the standard of the law to that
of Christian morals, to strip away the
safeguards and sanctions of the State
from the drink traffic, and to protect
our homes by tho total prohibition of
the curse, the heaviest that rests on
our civilization"

Mrs. Mary Clement Leavit has re-
turned home after almost eight years
in the service of the w. G. Il. U. in
foreign lands. She has visited most
known lands, the last of which was
South America, where she spent five
months. She crossed the equator
eight times and was in forty three
different countries, organized $50
Unions, held 1000 meetings, making
her addresses in forty Lam
guages, and travelled 100000 miles on
ten cont collections. She has girded
the world with white ribbon, and has
known both how Hto be abased and
how to abound,a for she has been
mobbed and magnifed, and now rests
on her laurels in Boston, Mass.

Send I'm Reports .

Will our Unions please send in re-
ports of their work? Perhaps some
of you are resting in consequence OF
the intense heat, and are silent by
reason of having nothing encouraging
to tell. If so, please write and state
even these facts, and tell us of your
aspirations for usefulness when the
dog DAYS are past.
The knowledge of what others are
doing is both an encouragement and
an Indictment to activity. Then, too,
may we not help ono another by sug-
gsstions as to methods of work 7
My dear sisters, urge you to write
me from every Union, and that speed
lily. l make this request not only for
the LEADER, but also that | may send
the report of State work to Union
Signal which is now due.
l am anxious that our own State
shall be regularly and fully reported.
l have been appointed State Reporter
to Union Signal and am anxious for
all information that would be inter-
esting. If you have but little to tell
do not keep back that little.
Please read what Mrs. Rastall has
said upon the subject of reports and
then write at once to the editor:

SUPPLEMENTAL RESOLUTIONS.

At the night session, Chairman
Branch made the following supple
mental report:
Your committee on platform and
resolutions beg leave unanimously to
report the following:
Whereas, Other questions have been
presented for our consideration, we
hereby submit the following, not as a
part of the platform of the Peoples
party, but as resolutions expressive
of the sentiment of the convention.
Resolved, That we demand q free
ballot and fair count in all elections,
and pledge ourselves to secure it to
every legal voter, without Federal in
terventiOn, through the adoption by
the States of the unpervertcd Austria
lian secret ballot system.
Resolved, That the revenue derived
from graduated income tax should
be applied to the reduction of the
burden of taxation now levied upon
the domestic industries of this coun-
try.
Resolved, That we pledge our sup
port to fair and liberal pensions to ex-
Union soldiers and sailors.
Resolved, That we condemn the
fallacy of protecting American labor
under the present system, which opens
our ports to the pauper and criminal
classes of the world, and crowds out
wage -earners, and we denounce the
present ineffective laws against con-
tract labor, and demand the further
restriction OF undesirable immigra-
ton.
Resolved, That we cordially sym
pathize with the efforts of organized
workingmen to shorten the hours of
labor, and demand rigid enforce
ment of the existing eight hour law
on general work, and ask that special
clause be added to said law.
Resolved, That we regard the main
tenance of large standing army of
mercenaries, known as the Pinkerton
system, as menace to our liberties,
and we demand its abolition and we
condemn the recent invasion of the
Territory of Wyoming by the hired
assassins of plutocracy, assisted by
Federal officers.
Resolved, That we commend to the
thoughtful consideration of the people,
and the reform press, the legislative
SYSTEM known as the initiative and
referendum.
Resolved, That we favor a consti-
tutional provision limiting the Office
of president and vice president to one
term, and providing for the election
of senators of the United States by q
direct vote of the people.
Resolved, That we oppose any sub
sidy or national aid to any private
for any purpose.
When the first paragraph, that re-
lating to the force bill and the Austria
liam ballot system, was read, q delegate
moved to lay it on the table. They
had the st. Louis platform,
he said. His motion got second,
bnk was beaten most decisively on
vote, nearly the whole convention
voting no. The immigration plank
and the anti Pinkerton plank were APP
plauded loudly.

pathy toward our Corresponding Sec

WHAT MAKES A MAN.

Not numerous years, nor heightened life,
Nor pretty children and wife,
Not pins and chains and fancy rings,
Nor any such like trumpery things;
Not pipe, cigars, not bottled wine,
Nor liberty with kings to dine;
Nor coat, nor boots nor yet hat,
A dandy vest or trim cravat,
Nor all the worlds wealth laid In store,
Nor master, reverend, sir nor squire,
With titles that the memory tire;
Nor ancestry traced back to VIII,
Who went from Normandy to kill;
Nor Latin, Greek. nor Hebrew lore,
Nor thousand volumes rambled over,
Nor judges robe, nor mayors mace,
Nor crown that deck the royal race,
These, all united, never can,
Avail to make q single man
A truthful soul, a loving mind,
Fun of affeatlon for Its kind;
A helper OF the human race,
A soul Of beauty and OF grace,
A spirit firm, erect and free,
Ihat never baSely Dends me knee;
That win not bear feathers weight
OF slavery's chain for small or great
That firmly speaks of God within,
And never makes league with sin;
That snaps the fetters despots make,
And loves the truth for his own sake;
That wOrships God and Him alone;
That trembles at no tyrant's nod
A soul that fears no one but God,
And thus can smile In curse and ban,
That is the soul that makes the man.

A Waynesville, N. G., correspondent
to the Columbia, S. C. Soldier has this
to say of one of Mississippi's most
gifted daughters:
Miss Kearney, of Mississippi, a
young woman of pleasing personal ap-
pearance, and wonderful oratorical
ability, has delighted audiences time
and again by her wonderful and con-
vinciDg elequenee. She is National
Organizer for the w. c. 7. U., and has
had most wonderful success. believe
we are safe in asserting that no young
woman in the nation couldexcel Hiss
Kearney in logic, wit, and splendid
oratory. The South should be proud
of her."

PEOPLES PARTY PLATFORM,

Adopted by the National Peoples Party
Convention at Omaha. Juiy attn. 1899:
Assembled on the one hundred and
sixteenth anniversary of the Declara-
tion of Independence, the Peoples
party of America, in their first Ma
tional convention, invoking upon their
action the blessing of Almighty God,
puts forth in the name and on behalf
of the people Of this country the fol-
lowing preamble and declaration of
principles:
The conditions which surround us
best Justify our cooperation we meet
in the midst of nation brought to
the verge of moral, political and ma
terial ruin. Corruption dominates
the ballot box, the Legislatures, the
Congress, aud touches even the ermine
of the bench. The people are demor-
allied most of the States have been
compelled TO isolate the voters at the
polling places to prevent universal
intimidation or bribery. The news
papers are largely subsidized or muz-
zled public opinion silenced busi-
ness pros;rated, our homes covered
with mortgages, labor impoverished,
and the land concentrating in the
hands of the capitalists. The urban
workmen are denied the right of or
ganization for self-protection f; import
ed, pauperized labor beats down their
wages a hireling standing army, un-
recognized by our laws, is established
to shoot them down and they are rap
idly degenerating into European
conditions. The fruits of the toll OF
millions are boldly stolen to build up
colossal fortunes for few, unprece-
dented in the history of mankind, and
the possessors of these in turn despise
the republic and endanger liberty.
From the same prolific womb OF
governmental injustice come the two
great tclasses-tramps and milliOnaires.
The national power to create money
is appropriated to enrich the bond
holders vast public debt payable in
legal tender currency has been funded
into gold bearing bonds, thereby add
ing millions to the burdens of the
people.

There is much to indicate that the

petual; may its spirit be upon all
hearts for the salvation ofthe republic
and the uplifting of mankind.
2. Wealth belongs to him who
creates IL, and every dollar taken
from industry without an equivalent
is robbery. "If any will not work,
neither shall he eat" The interests
of rural and civic labor are the same
their enemies are identical.
8. We bolieve the time has come
when the railroad corporations will
either own the people or the people
must own the railroads, and should
the government enter upon the work
of owning and managing all roads, we
should favor an amendment to the
constitution by which all persons
engaged in the government service
shall be placed under q civil service
regulation of the most rigid character,
so as to prevent the increase of the
power of the national administration,
by the use of such additional govern
ment employees.
FINANCE.
First-We demand national cur
rency safe, sound, and flexible, issued
by the general government only, a full
! legal tender for all debts, public and
private and that without The use of
banking corporations, just, equitable
and efficient means of distribution
direct to the people at tax not to ex-
ceed . per cent. be provided, as set
forth in the Sub Treasury plan OF
the Farmers Alliance, or some
better system also, by payments in
discharge of it's obligations for public
| improvements.
a. We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of silver. ~
b. We demand that the amount OF
circulating medium be speedily In
creased to not less than $50 per capita
C. We demand a graduated income
tax.
d. We believe that the money of the
country should be kept as much as
possible in the hands of the people
and hence we demand all national and
State revenues shall be limited to the
necessary expenses of the government
economically and honestly administer
| ed.
G. We demand that postal savings
banks be established by the govern
|
ings of the people and to facilitate ex
change.
| LAND.
Second-The land, including all tn,
natural resources of wealth, is the her
itage of all the people and should no
be monopolized for speculative pur
poses, and alien ownership of lanC
should be prohibited All land nov
held by railroads and other corpora
tions in excess of their actual needs
and all lands owned by aliens, shoult
be reclaimed by the government ant
held for actual settlers only.
| TRANSPORTATION.
Third Transportation being mean
of exchange and public necessity, tn
government should own and operat
the railroads in the interest of tn
people.
a. The telegraph and telephone, lik
the post-office system, being necessit
for transmission of news, should b
owned and operated by the government
in the interest of the people.
