Is There IIopes

Will the story of 1898 be better for
humanity than the one told of the
years that have gone? Will the
many continue, as in the past, to
allow the products of their toll to go
to enrich the non-producing few?
Will the make-everythings continue
contentedly or uncomplainingly to
have nothing, while the make-noth-
ings possess all? Will the worlds
workers gather to themselves the
worlds scorn, while upon the
shirkers are heaped it's honorsp
Will it still continue to be
true that Claws grindthe poor
and rich men make the laws?''
Will the workers continue to
allow themselves to be marshaled
into hostile camps by trading
politicians, and humbugged by false
issues and misleading cries the
while the laws are framed which
make the results of their industry
the prey of the men whose tools
those politicians are? Will the
crumbs that fall from the table of
Dives continue to be accepted with
thankfulness by Lazarus? When the

problem will be nearer, but will the
progress have been in the direction
of constitutional or a revolutionary
settlement of it?-Journal of the z

No matter how low hogs or cattle
get, the consumer never sees anv
cheap meat. Even when cattle and
hogs sold on foot at loss to the
producer, the people have paid ten,
twelve and fifteen cents pound for
the dressed articles. Complaints
come from England that the butchers
are growing fat at the expense of the
farmer. It is a fact that during all
the depression in prices of cattle and
hogs of the past four or five years,
the consumers of the towns and cities,
aside from newspaper reports, knew
nothing of cheap pork or beef. They
paid for il at just about the same
price as when the live product sold
for much better prices.
There is room for inquiry concern
ing who gets the profits that must
come from twelve cent beef
when cattle sell for three and
a half cents a pound as they
have done. It is claimed by the butch
ers of the cities that they are at the
mercy of the dressed meat combine,
who promptly break down all butch
ers who refuse to maintain prices at
a certain point. Whether this is true
to the extent claimed or not,it never
theless remains fact that the dis
parity between cattle and hogs on
foot and the dressed product is too
great, and the cause should be ascer-
tanned. At present price of cattle
and hogs, it is true less dissatisfac-
ton exists among the producers, as
there is now some profit in production;
but no matter how they go, the con-
sumner will continue to pay stiff prices
for meat. The charge that the butch
ers are growing fat at the expense of
the farmers is doubtless applicable
in a great degree to the dressed meat
combine.-Journal of Agriculture.

TRICKS of the Trade

Dishonest tfadesmen are always on
the alert to multiply jobs for them

Our lawmakers are nearly all
lawyers.
Oar judges are lawyers, selected
by lawyers.

ton and consequent lawyers fees can
be gotten cut of an apparently simple

A case is decided according to

It is carried TO a higher court
again and again, and perhaps is

And all the time the lawyers are
reaping a rich harvest from the field
Of contention.
ALI because different lawyers and
different judges place a different con-
structlOn upon the same Jaw.
It may truly be said that it is a
mighty poor lawyer that can't make a

A careful investigation Of laws and
law suits will reveal the fact that our
laws are evidently made to benefit

What Is It?

In these latter days something has
accused much unrest and a tremendous
political landslide, and since the late
election there has been much wonder
and speculation as to what it is.
1t would appear to be peculiar to
the soil of Kansas, but, like the seed
of the thistle down, it is upon the
wings of the wind waited from shore
to shore, and takes root in every land
and even in the isles Of the sea.
And, ere long, England, Russia,
Turkey, Ind:a-in fact, all Europe,
Asia and Africa-will be shaken from
center to circumference by it.
And even more powerful than the
king of metals, it will soon tdemone-
tie gold and cause every throne to
tumble and every crown ito scrumble,
and unite all nations in one grand
.sOcialistic brotherhood
It is not an American institution.
It is not national reform.
It is IA universal, intellectual. in
dustrial revolution.
Plutocracy, take notice and stand
from under, for know We not that the
