Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1893-09-28

Talking to a Democrat friend
recently l said to him, "Will you
tell me why, when the people of this
country need money, they should
have to borrow English money? Is
it true that our administrations,
our government, our congresses are
so contemptibly ignorant that they
cannot devise means to furnish our
own people with what money of our
own that they need but they must
be forced to borrow of England ?"
He has not answered the question
yet.-Chicago Express.

The ould mills deserted and gloomy

And all l have left for me share Of
the glory.
Is the old battered rooshter on the
top O. me hat.
l mustered up courage one day to
spake to him
And ask him how long we'd beidle ;
you see
The mill had been closed for fort
night, an loafin'
Wild not cent comm was tellin' on
He SEE to me, "Pat, you an will
both suffer;
Me bizness is crippled, me credit is
fat,
But fyez git hungry, yez know, he
said slyly,
"Yez can ate the ould rooshter yez
wore on your hat"
So there is the whole shtory, and
none can deny it,
The truth must be tould though the
heavens should fall.
We made mistake in not votin' fer
Weaver,
Who promised protection, good
money and all.
In four years from now yez might
talk till you'er spacheless;
An argify until you're gray as rat,
But if either old party is triumphant
The divil a rooshter ye'll see on me

General Viewers recent tour
through North Carolina, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Michigan was the most encouraging
character. The advance of the Peo-
ple's party in all these sections of
the country is the most gratifying
growth. The meetings were over
whelming at all points in these
states. DR.. McGlynn, Mrs. Lease,
Judge nerr of Colorado, and Mrs.
Todd of Michigan, also addressed
immense gatherings in New York
and Pennsylvania. The great politi-
cal deep is broken up and the success
of the Peoples party is assured

Mr.. Cleveland can squander his
time fishing; he can find time to
consult with Wall street as to what
measures they need carried through
congress, but the cries of hundreds
of thousands of unemployed and
starving men and women appear to
have no effect to arouse in him any
desire to relieve them.-Express.

centers which supply the brain with nerve

What security does your banker

Many Of the citizens of New

To all those numerous people who
insist upon knowing what has

that it has been laid away to save

man agree 80 well upon the financial
question that you cannot tell
whether the one is Dem.publican
or the other a Repub-ocrat. You

Accessions to the Populist ranks
in this state are getting so numerous
that we cannot keep track of them.
But look out. Buns and ward
heelers will come as we'll as honest
men. Be careful to whom you
trust the reins.
j. Sterling Morton. secretary of
agriculture, is always talking of the
horrors of over-production and sup
ply running ahead of demand. Yes,
that is what ails us. There is vast
over-production of such men as
Morton-men who live by the sweat
of some other fellows brow. And
the supply Of such men runs ahead
of the demand for them, too. We
do not need many Of them. and as
we stir up our brains little and let
the sunlight of reason in upon them
more, we will learn to get along
with even fewer such men. If we
had nation Of men all of whom were
to do a just share of work
we could worry along first rate.

boy went fishing for catfish,
big catfish. The line be used
was very strong He threw
out his line, and threw the
other ebd over the limb of a
tree to give it iHnte play,and
to make sure he tied it
around his ankle. A hundred
and fifty pound catfish grab
bed the bait and started off
with it, pulling the boy up to
the limb, where he hung sus-
pended, the fish in the efforts
to free itself, winding the line
around stu'nps in the river
and holding The boy fast.
When found be was dead.

Hung His Father.

hung HIS Father.
Spokane Review.
1t was Il strange meeting Uf
father and son on thy 3ccaz
sion of the hanging Of old Bill
Stebbings for the murder II
his second wife at Spokane,
The murder was atrocious,
the people said, and thsfs
were few glances OF sympd-
thy for the doomed man d.
mong the morbidly curious
stares of the little crowd that
filed the Jail yard:
The sheriff's depatias had
attended to the details. The
trap was set ready to be
sprung aid III an instant
send a man to the great be-
yond. The moose had been
made carefully of the best
hemp rope, CREASED with tai,
low for the occasion. The prs
cessi0h had moved up the
steps to the platforms.
With business-tike dignity
the sheriff; who had been no.
titled, stepped from his office;
crosssd tie toHtt. yard, and
mo,inted THE staffold with
the death Warrant Id hand.
He read the ducumaht in d
calm t6ice, as one would d
notice Of a sheriff's sale. .
"And now. sir" he said,
To the condemned man, "yon
are at liberty to speak ifthere
is anytHing on your mind"
Thfohghodt his trial, ih the
dark hodrs aftet sehteiice,
through the last flight Of his
life, and while Viewing curl
ously from his cell the rays
of the last sunrise he would
ever see on earth, the vi:tfId
Of the Inv had been stolid1y
Emotion had never
itself in his face. He
had taken his tate phiIosoph.
ically from the first, making
no defense, saying ndthifig
when the stern jtidge had CIV
en- him I'm opportunity to; be.
lore passing sentence. Few
Noticed it, buy it seemed as
if a teaf klistened in his sye
t!feH. Addressing himself to
The Sheriff, in a suppressed
tone he SAID:
"Won't you shake hands,
my boy, before l Go?"
The sheriff did not h e ar
him, or if he did no one could
nave told it. He was still tke
Dusiness-like executive officer
,f the country in which he
ived; nothing more,
"1 know | didn't treat you
'ight," the condemned man
showing a trace Of
excitement, ''nor did your
mother, either, but a Work Of
to a man that's GO
ng t" die isn't much. Won't
1ou say something?"
Twenty years Of battling
With the world on his own
hook had hardened the sher-
ifs heart. Silently he mo-
Toned the assistantsto buck
e the straps, adjust the cap
md fix the moose.
Then with q steady hand
md unwavering c0untenance
le pressed the button and
'enIt his father into eternity.
