Silver SLAUGHTERED,

Wednesday, 18th the House formally
killed the hope of the people that Con-
gress would heed the demand Of the
people for free silver coinage. The
Democracy divided, and one wing put
itself under the leadership of Thomas
b. Reed, of Maine, who conducted the
discussion against free silver and Sc
cured its defeat. A small section OF
the Republican party Joined with the
friends of silver, and voted for its re-
monetization, while the larger part
stood with Reed, as of yore. The ten
members of the Peoples Party were
firm for free silver, and every man in
his seat and voting. So died the hope
for free coinage.
The direct question before the House
was, to take up and consider the Stew
art bill, which recently passed the
Senate, On this question the yeas and
nays showed an unusually full House
voting as follows: Yeas 1876, nays l54
Adverse majority Is.
For the resolution the vote included
119 Democrats, 10 Peoples Party
members and Republicans.
Againft the resolution there were "a

And why? Simply because the in
dustrious worker, while he was not able
to produce but comparatively small
fraction of what he produces now with
our labor saving devices was neverthe-
less enabled to retain for his own use
far greater proportion of the wealth
that he did produce. The very fact
that the productive power of labor has
been increased sevenly-f five per cent is
made the means of decreasing, in far
greater ratio. the relative proportion OF
the product that labor is permitted to

The Way the Price of Wheat was
Kept Down.

A combination OF elevator and rail-
road interests have placed under tribute
every cultivated field on our western
uraries. The price of grain and the
transportation charges have been de-
termined in the interest OF the trader
and the kings of traffic. The railroads
have worked to sustain favored buyers.
and the spoil from the farm has been
divided. During on Investigation OF
the wheat question by a committee Of
the Minnesota legislature, it was proven
that the price to be paid for wheat at
thousand railroad stations in Minnesota
and the Dakotas was telegraphed or
sent by postal card every day to the
buyers representing the syndicate of
elevator companies, at all of these diff
ferent points. 1t was proven that this
price was regulated largely by local
conditions, when there was an indie.
pendent buyer the price was put up to
run him out of the business, or he was
bought off SO that the farmer would be
at the mercy of the combine. 1t was
also proven that the railroads favored
the buyers representing this robber
conspiracy, and only furnished trans
portation facilities to the independent
buyers under great urgency or compul
sion. That the railroad notified it's
agents to warn would be shippers not to
cut the syndicate price and when they
we're defed make the road of the law
abiding, honest man very. rocky one.
1t is we'll known fact that the
favorites of the railroads got rich,
while those who were not in the ring
were forced out of business or ruined.
Thus millions Of dollors were diverted
from the honest owners and made the
spoils of corporation pets and tools.
The revel of corruption has included
the legislative and executive depart
ments Of government, until the paralysis
of completely has made tho whole body
polite subservient to the influence OF
great corporations. The thrones of
power and wealth of business and social
standing have for years rested amid the
accumulated booty of land piracy. But
at last the tocsin of revolt has been
sounded, aud the farmers are banding
together for self.defense.-W. Rural.
