and any system that tends towards taking
away, or even lntSrfSreS with this ability,
Is far more injurious to the life and
healthy growth Of towns than business
men--judging from their actlOn-ars apt
to realize. We are often very dull In
perceivlng and very slow to change. l
think we should at all times exercise
proper caution and wisely guard against
sudden or extreme changes; but contin-
ual progress means continual change,
and it seems to me that townspeople,
from their OWN situation, would naturally
feel the need for q change from the
present system to one which will regu
late more correctly and distribute more
justly the accumulating wealth Of the
country, so that labor and human effort
may be fairly rewarded.
We do not assume to have the wisdom
or the ability to formulate perfect sys.
tenn Of government, but we do maintain
that our present system can be much i'm
proved; and the formation Of the Peo-
ple's party is purely for that purpose.
What prompts the townspeople to op-
pose so strongly the Peoples party move
ment ls mystery to many true reform
ers. Can they possibly gain anything by
showing hostility to the people In the
country from whom they draw their
vitalityS If the country people do not
prosper, the towns cannot, especially In
an agricultural state. But there may be,
In the opinion Of townspeOple,a justi6able
cause for an opposition to the Peoples
party principles. II such be really true,
would it not be better for them, and for
US all, il they would give US definite
reasons for their opposition? We are
certainly equally interested-Or we ought
to be-in the prosperity and we'll being
of all.
Individually, / am not under any obli-
cations TO the towns more than the towns
are to me. But we are far from feeling
Indifferent about their healthy condition
and desirable progress. People In towns
who have invested money, built a home
or engaged In business, have done so
with the object in view of making liv-
Ing common with us all. It Is the opin-
lon Of many that townspeople who are
engaged In mercantile business are max
ing too great profit; years ago that might
have been true, but to day competition is
so great, keen and sharp, that many bus
mess men instead Of making great profits
are losing money and falling. do not
think 1t wise to attempt to increase COM
petition, OF even for us to encourage it
Existing facts and the condition OF busi
ness men In our home towns demonstrate
that they are not making unreasonable
profits or accumulation Of wealth. The
great leskages are elsewhere, metaphor
Ically speaking. l think 1t would be
wise for US to guard against straining at
q gnat and swallowing camel.
We are cognizant Of the fact that for
the last two years the election returns Of
Kansas have shown q large opposition
vote In all the towns against the reform
party; and great number of the country
people take 1t as a war against the prin-
clples Of the Peoples party, and an effort
to defeat them In securing reforms neces-
sary for their relief, and also as showing
an antagoniSn to the interest of wage

Towns ARE EQUALLY INTEREgTRD.


healthy, vigorous and Aourishing, the
people ought to be full OF life and pros
porous; for this Is in accordance with all
known laws and inherent principles Of
nature.
The increase Of wealth in these United
States during the last forty years has
been phenomenal. From 1850 to 1860
it more than doubled. In 1850 the
wealth of this country was less than
$4,000, 100000, and in 1890 over 800, ,0OO,-
100000. This wealth Is the result OF
labor and human effort, and, according to
the belief and professions Of humane
people, all should TO greater or less de-
gree psrtake Of It's benefits. II the ex-
listing conditions Of the people prove to
be the reverse, it Is an evident fact that
something ls wrong; and 1t Is our duty
to investigate aud endeavor to ascertain
II possible the exact causes, and then 1t
might be possible for US to adopt the
best and most effectual method for cor
rectlng the evils, or establish q system
moro compatible with our boasted civil
izAtlon.
A country may be very rich and pro-
ductive; speople may be economical and
industrious; but extra burdens or con-
tinual draining from the individual re-
sources Of the masses, coupled with the
continual contraction Of the sources upon
which they relied and confidently de-
pended for recuperstion, must, lnevltS
bly,, reduce the masses of our people to
poverty, weakness and dependence; and
the wealth OF our country be owned,
the governing power contracted, aud the
masses OF the people controlled by few
RutOcratiC manipulators. This picture
iS not bright, but 1t Is true; and there is
only one course for the people to pursue
to prevent Its completion, and that is, 70
awake from our slumbering, shake of
our slugglshness, arouse from apathy,
cast sway our prejudlces and our selfish
ness, cease our opposition in antagoniz-
ing each others interest, and act unltedlY
as civilized human beings ought to for
che salvation Of all. Il Is not only the
tiller Of the soil, the mechanic, the oper-
ative and the miner, that are suffering
from depression and poverty, but buSi'
ness men suffer just as severely, and
towns feel the depression equally with
us all; and also realize clearly the great
need for reforms.
Now, the question arises In the mind,
why should antagonistic sentiment and
feeling exist between the people In the
country and the townspeOpleH What
can really be the cause for It's existenceS
IL the agricultural classes OF this state
prosper, would not the business men and
the towns prosper tooH II the people
have by their energy and industry Gre
ated abundance Of wealth and neceSsarles
of life, and they are suffering from
financial depression, poverty and loss
Of their homes, Is IL not evidence
sufficiently demonstrative to convince
any reasonable person Of the great
need for a searching investigation for
the causesp Are we all desirOus TO
mitigate evil, rectify wrong and have
justice reign In our land and righteous
ness among the peopleH Ifso, why do
we not work more together in unison for
its accomplishment? We only want

LONDON, March 1s,-After long dis
cussion of the question whether the
stoppage of work should continue for
week or fortnight, the delegates to the
conference Of the Miners Federation
unanimously adopted resolution de-
claring that in view Of the fact that the
object for which the pits had been
stopped had been achieved, the confer

strenuous opposition Of the Lancashire
delegates.
There was some questions as to
whether the masters would allow the
men to return to work at the time de-
cided upon by the Miners Federation,
but it has been practically solved at a
meeting of the Lancashire and Cheshire
coal mine owners, who employ 100000
men, which was held to consider the
matter. After considerable argument
it was decided to allow work to be
resumed in the mines on Monday.

MIDTOWN. Del, March II, 1sa2.-The

" When yesterday afternoons session
of the Superior Court convened at 2.30
O'Clock, Mr.. vandegrift resumed his
argument in favor .of the petition OF
William Helmrath, asking that he be
paid the amount OF his judgment out
OF the money now In the hands OF the
Court, from the salo OF the goods of
the Charles Mullen Company.
Mr.. Vandegrift closed at 2. 45 o'clock
by asking the Court to allow him to
present testimony In the case.
Judge Cullen said that he could not
see any objection to this, and that he
proposed to give the attorneys oil the
time they wanted on the case. as he
considered 1t one Of the most inter
esting he had ever heard.
Mr. salisbury expressed his willing
ness to meet the case in any way de-
termined upon. He commended that
there had not boen fraud. and that an
insolvent debtor has right to prefer
his creditors.
He also said, that Is the property OF
the Charles Mullen Company has de-
| creased in value about $1,000 since
| this litigation was commenced, and
that II the case is to be delayed any
longer he would ask that the other
side be required to furnish security
against any further loss.
Mr.. Lore said that when this case
was first taken to the United States
Court, the goods OF the Charles Null
len Company were valued at sc, 900
but they were squeezed until at last
when they came into the hands OF the
sheriff, they sold for less than $4,000
and that sum has now decreased to ;
little over $1,000. He said that he wal
willing to try the case In any way, but
believed the other side was only seek
| ing still further delay.
The entire afternoon was consumed
with argument but no decision was
given.

A few days ago a lady with a child
took seat in a car at the Delaware
avenue depot, for the purpose OF rid
ing some distance. In few seconds
the conductor in charge gave the sig
nal to start, but the car she was seated
in was allowed to remain motionless
until the time arrived for another cur
to start. IL the conductor had been
efficient she would have been inform
ed,of the arrangements Of the company
and would not have been compelled
to sit with her Child for five or ten
minutes exposed to the chilling winds
that are go common at this season OF
the year. When car is standing OIL
the track it is fair presumption that
IL is ready 10 start, and when 1t does
not do 30 the passengers cannot be
blamed for finding fault. 1t would be
well II certain conductors would have
flea placed in their ears.

Beet Sugar in Ohio.

CLEVELAND, o., March 18.-Farmers
in northern Ohio are showing great in
terest in sugar beet culture and the
the manufacture of beet sugar. A large
mass meeting was held at Norwalk, and
assurance was given of enough beets be-
ing raised in that vicinity to warrant
the building of a much larger factory
than had before been projected. At
Findlay definite plans for a factory
have also been made, and active agita-
tion to the same end is going ON in many
other localities.
