A MIXED CAREER.

Preacher, Doctor, E~iEhwRymnu, Son.in-
Law of u seuator and Now in - Felon's
Cell.
WOOSTER, O., Nov. 2S.-Born OF Chris
tian parents, his father a Methodist
minister, and raised as tenderly as a
ported plant, was u young man who
left this county in 1855. He too up
his residence in Missouri, where he
studied and practiced medicine. The
last heard of him by his parents was
early in the civil war, when no married
the daughter of Senator Clymer, OF
Missouri. He has long been mourned
as dead, but this week word came that
he was living and filed the cell OF n
convict in the far off state OF Texas.
This, too, after having been preacher
aud doctor, and, by his own confession,
a member OF the Younger brothers,
gang Of desperadoes and an associate OF
Frank and Jesse James. Such in brief
is the history OF Rev. William Wilson,
The information which came TO rela-
tiyes here from Waco, Texas, is to the
effect that he had been preaching near
that city when he borrowed q horse
from a neighbor and sold IL TO n police
man named Hall. He was arrested and
entered a plea OF guilty. Before being
sentenced he made an affecting plea
for mercy, but vas given the full extent
Of the law. It had been long suspected
that he had served with the Younger
brothers, and to Sheriff Ford ne con-
fessed that under the name OF Robert
Shepard he had been an officer in the
Younger brothers gang. In his con-
iession he said:
81 was born in Wayne county, Ohio,
in 1889 and am therefore 81 years old.
Ny father was Rev. 7. S. Wilson, q min
lister OF note. l removed to Missouri in
1858 and married Miss Mary ClYmer,
daughter OF Senator Clymer. / bad re-

WHO is RESPONSIBLE
Responsibility of the Democratic Party
For Labor Troubles.

Responsibility of the Democratic Party
For Labor Troubles
1t may be a surprising statement to
make that the democratic party is
largely responsible for both the Buffalo
trouble and the Tennessee trouble, but
nevertheless such is the fact. Anarchy
and lawless outrage are foreign to the
genius of American institutions. There
is neither place nor excuse for them in
a land where every laboring man, no
matter how poor he may be, has vote
and can appeal to the ballot box But
the democratic party, even while it was
opposing with all its strength repub-
lican ballot reform and anti-bribery
legislation, has been sowing the seeds
of anarchy by telling the people that
capitalists corrupt the ballot box and
poison its verdict, in order to make and
keep on the statute books laws that
undUly favor them by expressing
their fellow-citizens. 1t has held
up and labeled robbery system
of economic legislation based on
the accepted truth that capital is as
necessary TO the work of highly or
ganized and diversified society as labor
is, and the obvious principle of the JUS
tice of extraordinary insurance against
extraordinary risk, such as the risk
that foreign competition would deprive
our country Of the benefits of industrial
diversity. II matters not that the SEN
ate finance subcommittee report,
signed by democrats.as well as by re-
publicans, proves by facts and figures
that NOBODY is robbed 1t matters not
that university professors of political
economy, like Edwin R. A. Seligman, of
Columbia, prove that only consumers
who are not producers, or who have
nothing TO sell, pay taxes in the last
analysis, because they cannot add them
TO the price of what IheJ have to sell,
and that, therefore, capital as distin-
guished from labor pays the taxes at
last

a BETRAYAL

An Open Confession From High Demo-
cratic Authority of a Betrayal on the
Part of the Democratic House.
An honest confession is good for the
political soul, and we are glad TO see
such an open acknowledgment Of the
utter failure of the democratic majority
in the house of representatives as ap-
pears in the New York Sun, to-wit:
But it remains true, everything be-
ing considered, that the record of the
democratic house in the matter of ap-
preparations is betrayal of the voters
who elected it on the issue of economy,
a Reputation OF lis own professions aud
promises, and shame and disgrace to
the party"
If the ideas contained in this brief,
sweet morsel could be couched in any
stronger or more convincing language
by even the most virulent of republican
newspapers, we would like to see their
expression 1t IS an open, honest con-
fession. and the democratic party IS
crucifed in the house of its chief sup
porter
The democratic house betrayed the
voters who believed in protestations of
reform and economy; and yet this same
confessed fraud attempts to iftits head
once more, and asks a vote of conf
dence, 1t has violated all its promises,
and still asks to be trusted False in
the past on every living issue, it still
asks the people to trust it with another
chance to pilfer the treasury.

From 1850 to 1890 we have increased
our taxable wealth, at an assessed val
uation, from s16L53 to SHALT per
capita To get the real wealth per
capita multiply these figures by four
and we have S646.OS in 1850 against
S976.6S in 1890, gain in wealth, that,
to say the least, is most satisfactory.
To reeapitulate and bring the totals
of increase in direct companion with
the debt statement, the account would
be as follows, remembering that the
debt is placed against the increase only,
the original of ten years ago not being
taken into account:
Increase in value OF farms .........s 1854 .O00
Increase in value OF farm products. e5,o0OO10

Total mortgage Indebtedness. 80 235. 4OO,Ol1
Balance in favor Of Kansas ...... ssee 4Oo, GOD
There are many items of large value
that might have been figured in the in
crease account, such as increase in the
value of town property, farm machine
cry, personal property, etc. But the
data for these items cannot be obtained
at this time except by estimates, and
rather than use anything that might be
questioned as to reliability they have
not been included. The figures given
do not by any means represent fully
the actual increase of the wealth in
Kansas, as they simply include such
items as may fairly be considered as
legitimate objects to the value of which
the mortgage money has added. in
the balance given there has not been
deducted the one-fourth that the cen
sus gives as not being devoted to ''pur-
chase and Improvements"
The total mortgage indebtedness that
has been made in Kansas in the past
ten years is S343. 26S 900. OF this amount
S176. 123. 900 has been paid off. Thus we
have paid off more Indebtedness than we
now have to pay. If from 1850 to 1890
we paid off SIG. O0O. 900 indebtedness, is
there anyone who can doubt our ability
to pay off the smaller sum of S167, 0O0,-
600 which yet remains due, especially
when it is considered that the increase
for the next ten years will be so much
greater than it has been during the like
past period? Where, then, is there any
excuse for a calamitous cry? Instead,
we should all shout: stand up for
Kansas"

What Cyrus W. Field thought of
wealth. he told a New York World re-
porter some weeks before his final ILL.,
ness: Money is really worth only
what it will bring in the things We
want; and for that purpose, ten dollars
day are worth just about as much as
one thousand dollars day In addi-
ton to this, there is only the grati6ed
pride which arises from what men gen.
orally call a great SUGGESTIVE salts
faction that the boy has who swims the
farthest or the girl who stands at the
head OF her class" On his death-bed,
Mr.. Field said: MY life is a wreck;
my fortune gone; my home dishonored
was so unkind to Edward when I
thought l was being kind If / had
only had firmness enough to compel my
boys tc earn their own living, then they
would have known the meaning Of
money"
