THE s.GOLD-BUGS."


It's related by the biographer tha
Baron Rothchild witnessed the bat
tie of Waterloo from the heights o
castle near by, and when it became
certainty that Napoleon was de
feated, Rothschild made all possible
haste to England, reaching London
in advance of Wellington's courier
Entering the London stock ex
change, Rothschild had it secretly
given out that Wellington and
Blucher had failed to unite their
armies, and that the English and
Prussan armies had been defeated
by the French armies in detail. In
consequence, English funds fell
rapidly, and Rothschild's had agents
buying all that was offered, and
before the truth reached London,
Rothschild had cleared fve.million
dollars. By that and similar trans
actions, the Rothschilds forced the
English government to demonetlze
silver and establish her present
financial system, and now the
RothschiIds are absolute masters of
European finances, and, through
finance, masters of governments and
people.
To-day America bends at the foot
of a throne established through
lying, treason and bribery. A great,
free and enlightened people are
forced by their political leaders to
cringe to the most cruel, sordid,
selfish, ignobIe and damnablc mon
arch that has ever arisen to cursh the
human race.
Mahomed was sincere, Alexander
was brave, Charlemagne was noble
and generous, but the gold monarch
has not one redeeming trait OF
character. Without truth, without
patriotism, without honesty, with
out courage, the gold conspirators
are fit type of the conspiring angel
in Heaven, the serpent in Eden OF
the rulerin He'll. They lie that they
may steal and steal that they may
add to that which they do not need,
and which they cannot enjoy, and,
like their father, the Devil, they
care not for the poverty and misery
they needlessly cause.

RALLY FOR THE CONFLICT.

Let no silver man be cast down OF
discouraged. 1t is darkest before
daylight. There's no crown with
out a cross. The hand is often
wounded that plucks the rose.
Every battle has been won over the
dead bodies OF comrades. Every
cause has had it's reverses. Religious
freedom was only established after
thirty ears of bloody war, and not
until the cup of misery for her peo-
pie was drained to it's last dregs, her
cities in ashes and her farm land a

tyranny came forth great republic

African slavery the livets were
sundered and the slaves went free.
Bull Run was the first act in the
taking of Richmond and Lees sur

who believe in financial reform are
a host compared with the little hand
fuls of men who have achieved the
worlds CIVILIZATION, fought humani-
ty's battles and made the earth tit
abiding place for the human race.
Their motto, as ours, was, Coward

Out of weakness, strength is
developed. Silver has only met her
Bull Run. Let us gather our scat
tered forces together, re-organize,
equip and discipline, and "on to
Richmond" Our Grant may yet be
only colonel, or may be on farm,
but be sure, God does not create
emergencies without means, armies
without generals or uprising with
out leadership. Financial reform
must come. 1t is the cause of the
people, and the voice of the people
will be heard, for it is the voice of
Ged.
Up and at the gold bugs! The
liquidation of debt, no bonds, and
money to do the business of the
country on a cash basis, be our cry.

THE ELECTION.

Tuesdays election in Anderson
county resulted in the election of the
Republican county ticket, and of
Rams Harrington, the Populist
nominee for county commissioner in
the First district. The race between
John Farris, Republican candidate
for sheriff, and G. F. Morse, the
Populist nominee, was very close.
Tuesday was beautiful day, and
we never witnessed more orderly
election. The Australian ballot
system is in favor with all parties.
The Republicans were afraid of it,
but they now think it is all right.
~
New York went Republican, by
the help of independent Democrats
who opposed the corrupt practices
of the Tammanyites.
Ohio gave Mckinley a heavy
plurality.
Douglass county, Kas., elected its
Populist ticket.
A large number of the counties
have elected Republican officials by
the fusion of the Republicans and
Democrats.

A COLD WINTER.

The Stevens Point journal is author
ity for saying that although this has
been hard winter for blockades none
have compared with the blackades of
the winter of lSS0=S1. con March 4th
twelve years ago there was but one
train running in the entire state and
that went north from Stevens Point"
Speaking of the Wisconsin Central
R. R. it says For nearly its entire
length the road is banked its entire
length with deep snow" "For miles
the rails were covered with ice to the
depth of from three to eight inches,
the whole making the most effectual
as we'll as the most expensive blockade
ever known to the railroad history of
Wisconsin, 1t took a large force of
men four days to clear the track so that
train could be run. 1t was four days
before train could be run and then
only as far as Helbert when another
snow blockade again delayed the train.
There have been considerable over
100 days up to the present writing that
there has been no snow melting. At
this writing it is still cold and the
sleighing is excellent. Ice is three and
a half feet thick of the finest quality.
In some localities Of northern Wiscon-
sin snow is still three feet deep on a
level. ~

NEARLY THAT MANY HORSES

TERRIBLY SHOCKING FIRE IN A
CHICAGO BARN.
Wallace Street Building of the Chica-

Etc, Totally -Hideous
Screams of the Burning Horses

Chicago. Oct. 12.-Frenzied with
fright and driven to stampede by d
fire in the Wallace street barns of the
Chicago City railway, tonight, 461
horses were burned to death.
The barns were entirely destroyed
and the total -oss will reach high fig
ure.
The fire spread with startling rapidity
and before anything could be done the
whole two-story brick structure was a
mass of flames and the efforts to get
the horses out were futile. For some
time the screaming of the animals was
terrible, but after a time the sound
gradually died out. Those that had not
been burned to death We're suffocated.
The company also loses thirty closed
cars and a large stock of hay and
grain. The losses will aggregate
$4,000; amply covered by insurance.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
