Do you know that you have asked for the

Ever made by the Hand above
A woman's heart and woman's life
And wOman's wonderful love.
Do you know you have asked for this

AS child might have asked for a toy
Demanding what others have died to win
With the reckless dash of a boy?
Man-like you have questioned me;
Now stand at the bar OF my WOman'S soul
Until have questioned thee.
You require that your dinner should al
ways be hot.
Your socks and your shirt should be
whole;
1 require your heart to be as true as God s
stars,
And pure as heaven your soul.
You he require cook for your mutton and
Irequire far better thing;

From my soft young cheek one day;
Will you love me then, mid the falling

Is your heart an ocean so strong and deep

On the day she is made bride.

NatiOnalism and Christianity

For THE REPRESENTATIVE:
The principles of Nationalism as
embodied in Mr.. Bellamy's popular
book are still under active discus
sion. That such theories should be
cordially detested by those who are
already ''riding on of top the coach" is
not remarkable, since the enjoyment
of this elevated position is due main
ly to the envy of the toilers who
draw the coach.
That the workers, in their servi-
tude, poverty, and pain should well
come any plan which promises to re-
move the tOrturing dread of starva-
ton or pauperism, is to be expected.
To feel that their condition was not
the irremediable work of an unjust
God but the temporary manifesto
tion of an imperfect finite humanity
is the one ray of hope that can light
their tOilsome way. 1t is like the
dream of liberty that long lowered,
reckoning to the Southern slave.
1t remains for writer in the An
dover Review to not only repudiate
the practicability of Nationalism but
to deny that it contains the prin-
ciples of Christianity. Unwilling to
honestly avow her preference for the
god Mammon, or even to decently
apologize for her unholy alteration,
she dogmatically seeks to define and
measure Christianity by the dimen-
sions of her own puny and selfish
soul

the fact that unbiased minds outside

be a little lower, but it will give YOU
an idea of how much the miner re.
ceives for his dangerous labor. In
this district the number of tons of
coal produced was 1881, 1856; 6,293
miners produced it, or 1,586.26 tons
for each miner. Let us leave off the
fraction and call it 1856. The miner
received TIC. per ton which would be
81, 1889. He must pay at the lowest
26c. per ton to the laborer. I always
paid &c., but the average is 26c.
That would be $412.36. AS therewere
800, 1874 kegs of powder used, he must
have used about 5O4 kegs which at So
per keg is $15O.75. You must bear in
mind that the miner uses oil, cotton.
etc. The oil is furnished by the COM
panies but at the same price, or very
nearly the same price as elsewhere.
The oil bill will average $1.10 per
month, or $13.2Oper year. Cotton for
lamp and tying on barrel or tube and
squibs, So. The companies employ
blacksmith who does all necessary
work about the colliery, but the min
ers are compelled to pay him. About
one cent ton is kept out of their pay
and the blacksmith receives so much
per day. Mind you the blacksmith does
not receive echot IS kept. He is employ
ed by the companies the same as all
company hands. One cent a ton
would be $15.86. Then there are in
cidental expenses which no one re-
allies buta miner. They will amount
to $40 at the least. The account

of Independence.
There never has been more aus
picious time in the history of the
peoples party for general revival
of interest and enthusiasm. There
never has been a time when our
speakers could present our princi-
Piles with greater effect and vanQuish
our enemies with so much ease. The
rank and file Of the republican par
ty are at sea without rudder or COM
pass. They are disguised, routed
and confused-ready to align them
selves with right and progress. A
large portion of the rank and file of
the democratic party are Disguised
and Inundated at the disgraceful
scramble for spoils now going on
among it's leaders. They were told
from every democratic stump in the
South and West that if the democrat
ic party should be placed in control
of the government, free silver and
reduction of taxation should be
forthcoming at once. They are now
confronted with goldsbug admins
tration preparing to repeal the last
vestige of law that recognizes silver,
and doing the bidding of Wall street
at every turn. 1t is to-day violating
the spirit and letter of the statues
of the United States. 1st, by re-
deeming coin certificates in nothing
but gold, when the law plainly pro-
vides that they shall be redeemed
in silver coin from the bullion pur-
chased under the Sherman law of
1890. Second by failing and refus-
ing to execute the Geary Chinese
law, and third by taking money
from the Treasury of the United
States without warrant or author
ity to defray the extravaganza and
exhorbitant expenses of royalty now
visiting the country These grim
facts cannot be defended or excused.
Just think of it, taking $1,000 of
the sweat money of the working
men in this country to pay the hotel
and carriage bills of the Duke of
Varagua for one week in Chicago.
Our rulers seem to be perfectly in
fatuated with royalty, and to have
absolutely lost every 'vestige of the
spirit of 1776. That spirit dethroned
royalty in this country, and should
be kept alive among our people;
therefore we, the national commit
tee of the peoples party, urge our
people everywhere to prepare at once
for a great rally of our forces on the
4th day of July, 1898. Arrange for
"a rally and picnic in every community.
Have your very best speaker to en-
terrain and enlighten our people.
Invite your neighbors of every poll
tical faith and order to come out
and hear the truth. Let this 4th of
July be not only celebration of the
declaration of 1776, but also a cele-
bratiOn of our second declaration of
Independence as proclaimed at Oma-
ha on the 4th of July, 1892. Let the
1,058,OOO men who voted our ticket
in 1892 turn out and convert as many
more, and thus build up the cause of
right and justice all over the land,
and the God who holds the destiny
of nations in his hand will bless and
help us.

That is very close figuring but, I
think, quite correct. You will see by
the above that the miner receives
$5O1.82 for the year, or $41. 81 1912 per
month, and the laborer $416.36 per
year, or 1874. SO S-12 per month.
This by no means ends the figuring.
You have often heard of the favored
few. There are always quite a num-
Der of 'pets" in every colliery, who
receive the Headings" and "Nar-
row work. in general A heading"
is the ideal of mining, and some min
ers' ideal. The price is not so much
now as in time gone by. It is lower
ing every day. Well, there are about
1900 men working on narrow work in
this district, and they get more pay
than the figures above indicate, but
it would reduce the wages of.the other
1893 to raise theirs, SO think I have
them low enough. l have given you
the wages of the miners and laborers
as near as possible so will proceed.
Company hands outside $145, COM
pany hands inside SLIGO, boys inside
from SIC. to 81 Al, average about SLIP.
Slate pickers SOC. Engineers and
bosses are paid by the month. About
$65 is the average pay for an engineer,
mine boss $105, outside boss SIS. You
see the bosses have good wages and
will cruelty the workmen in order to
keep their jobs. The above consti-
tutes the wages as far as it is posi-
BILE to give them; an outsider can not
go any further.

CARTER HARR1soNs CAREER.
Serving His Fifth Term as Mayor of the
Worlds Fair City.

Serving His Fifth Term as Mayor of the
Worlds Fair City.
Carter Henry Harrison was born in Fay
cite county, Ky. Feb. %, 1925. Richard
A. Harrison, Cromwell's lieutenant gem
eral, who led Charles / to the scaffold, is
his earliest ancestor preserved in the fam
lily archieves The name was conspicuous
in Virginia during the colonial period,
and Carter u. Harrison, his great grand
father, and his brother, Benjamin Harri-
son, the signer of the Declaration Of Inde-
pendence and father of William Henry
Harrison, are enrolled in the annals of the
infancy of the Unit ed States of America.
Carter received superior educational ad-
vantages, and in 1s45 graduated from Yale
college. He then studied law, but did not
practice. IN 1851 he visited every part of
England, Ireland and Scotland and other
parts of Europe, and passed into Egypt,
and in company with Bayard Taylor ex-
plored Syria and Asia Minor Two years
later he entered Transylvania law school
at Lexington, and finished the course in
1855. In 1855 he went to Chicago and en-
gagged in real estate speculatiOns.
His political life commenced in 1871,
when he was elected county commissioner.
In 1872 he was nominated by the Demo
Gratis to congress to represent strongly
