Wood, broker or real estate broker,
Now q stranger in q strange land had to
have some cheek to borrow $50 in Kan.

l introduced myself to Mr.. Wood, and
told him that he ought to know me;
that was the nephew Of the pious
VIM. H, Harrison of Mt Gilsad, o.,
that he was partner with some years
before, and that / wanted to borrow $50,
and wanted 1T bad. Sam frankly told
me that my pious relationship was not

other security. had q Brooklin town
share (Brooklin was twelve miles south

thought that would be better security
than the pious relationship. He took
the town share with the remark that |
looked like an honest young fellow that
would pay the money back. Well, l

National Monetary Road Congress

A mass convention Of those interested
in seeing the money question pushed to
the front in our campaign of '96 will be
held at Chicago, July 25, 1893, for the
purpose Of making permanent the organ
izstion of the National Highway I'M
provement League. This organization is
strictly educational and has been tempo
rarily organized for the purpose Of plac-
ing before the people the most simple
and practical plan for putting money
into circulation that has been devised.
The work Of this organization conflicts
in no way with the work of any other
labor organization and is in direct har;
mony with the Omaha platform.
Under this plan the government will
create legal tender paper money, based
upon the law Of the government, receiv-
able for taxes of every description and
redeemsble in the products Of our coun-
try, to be issued to our people for work
done upon our public highways, and
other improvements TO which this prece-
dent will lead.
This plan should not be confounded
with road improvement schemes now
being pushed for the purpose Of sinking
our producers deeper in debt.
Under this plan it is within our power
to build the finest roads in the world,
give our army Of idle men employment
in their construction, and establish the
best monetary system the world has
ever known. All this without a dollar
of bonds or taxes.
Headquarters will be at the Louisiana
hotel, northeast corner list street and
Seipp avenue.
Place of meeting will be announced
later. Letters of inquiry must contain
stamp and be addressed to our provis-
ionSl secretary,
MISS Cora V. DTEHL,
Guthrie, Oklahoma.

copy Of paper to secretary.

being made by the miners Of Cherokee
and Crawford counties, and their appeal
for aid, which has appeared in the re-
form papers. They are struggling in
the interest of home and family. The
injury Of one lsboring man should be
the concern Of all Labor shall never
be able to receive her just reward until
all who toll realize the Importance Of
standing by their brethren in the great
battle for industrial freedom.
There can be no doubt that the pres
emit strike among the coal miners OF
Cherokee and Crawford counties is sim
ply an appeal for justice and equity. If
it ends in the defeat of the miners, it
means another link forged to bind them
to the CALLING exBctions Of capital. It
means another labor organization has
been compelled to yield.
The poor mans hope is crushed; he
sees his family in despair, starvation
staring him in the face and no one to
pity; he becomes discouraged, his pride
leaves him, and like the galley slave, he
accepts the inevitable.
Do not think for one moment that the
poor miners family is the only oneinjured.
AS you reduce the ability Of the labor
ing man to purchase the necessities Of
life, to that extent the farming industry
is affected. Our interests are mutual.
Therefore | urge immediate steps being
taken to assist them in their present
difficulty, remembering the Scriptural
injunction that "Bread cast upon the
waters will return after many days"
1t seems to me that there is not q
county in eastern Kansas that "ould not
afford to contribute at least one car Of
commodities for these poor people.
In their appeal for aid they close by
saying: "Lste developments show that
it is the determination Of these merciless
corporations to stsrvs us into submission.
We therefore appeal to all honest lovers
Of human liberty and justice to aid us in
our struggle against these soulless ty-
rants who wish to grind q free people
below the level Of slaves"
Let US be up and doing. Let each
county secretary correspond immedi-
ately with his sub alliance secretaries
and have them circulate an appeal and
receiving any kind of contributions that
their neighbors may be able to give.
This will take but little time and trouble
compared with the JOY and comfort you
may be able to assist in furnishing these
poor people.
Secretaries Of Alliances in counties Rd-
joining Cherokee and Crawford could
arrange for a grand contribution day,
delivering their offerings upon the same
date, thus bringing sunshine and gl. d.
ness into thousand homes. The fol-
lowing are the Instructions:
"All aid and contributions in money
