This is Plain Enough.

When he tells you the government
cannot get the money to buy the ral-
roads, ask him if he would refuse to
work or furnish supplies if the govern
ment were to commence at once to
build a railroad from ocean to ocean,
and rendered government money
greenbacks-in payment And if not,
would not the people own the railroad
free of debt when their money had
paid for it? Let us build new roads,
pay for them with greenbacks, operate
them at cost, and let the railroad kings
keep their roads. They will be beg
ging very hard for the people to buy
them-and not as now, saying the peo-
pie cannot run the roads. One of the
first things the peoples party will do
when it gets into power will be to build
a great transcontinental line to give
idle workmen employment and get q
new volume of money in circulation,
and then the people will see more pros
porous times than this country ever
knew. There's good time coming

THE FORCE BILL

fhe Democratic Party 10 Responsible For
Its Rehabilitation In tho Present Cam
Palgn.
Our readers have Of late heard much
said about ''the force bill" Who is re-
sponsible for the scarecrow? That you
may see where it originated, who were
its originators and why it was origi-
mated, the Raleigh IN. c. Progressive
Farmer gives the incident as related by
the Washington Post at the time.
"A group OF congressman were
gathered on the floor Of the house be-
fore the hour OF assembling, and were
discussing the. outlook. In the group
were Representatives Williams and
Hoar, of Massachusetts,, and Mckinney,
OF New Hampshire, while the south
and west were represented by some
Texan members and Mansur, of Mis-
souri, The conversation between the
men was at times quite emphatic and
was always earnest. Representative
Williams began the talk by telling a
clever little story on Band, the great
free silver champion, and then the dia-
logue naturally ran to silver. There
are fourteen democrats I'm this house,
said Mr.. Williams, from New En-
gland, but there will not be one in the
next house if free silver bill passes
this congress, excepting, possibly, Mr..
ONeill, of Massachusetts. 1 never
heard such revolutionary sentiments as
were expressed by democrats, and men
OF national prominence, too, while 1
was at home in Massachusetts, during
the past two weeks. They will break
with our party and vote for the repub-
ican candidate as quick as thought if
this house passes a free silver bill.
With such bill all hope of keeping
New England in the democratic column
will be lost The southern and west
