Mr.. Powderly. head of the order of

open letter to President Cleveland
We give a few sentences because of
their suggestiveness:
"When you were elected this coun-
try was enjoying an era of prosperity.
Trade and commerce flourished. man.
ufactures were hopeful for the future.
For once in the history of the nation
the cry of overproduction was not
heard, and so far as statistics go,
those engaged in manufacturing pur-
suits were working on orders and had
no stock ahead to threaten labor with
fear of dismissal. Crops were good.
the general health of the country was
rs good as it had ever been. we were
not threatened by either war, pesti-
lence or famine, and there was work
and food enough for all. Since No.
vember, 1892, not one of these dangers
has threatened us with visitation. and
yet we find millions OF laberors out of
employment, we walk by factories in
which no signs of life is manifest, we
see the workingmen ami the farmers
of the nation-''the first and most de-
fenceless victims of unstable money
and a huctusting currency"-with
starvation stalking but one week in
