A Laboring Man,

Let me tell my fellow laborers that they
will regret 1t If they listen now to promis-
es OF work, in the future, in case the ad =
ministration ticket is reelected. TO talk
of reopening the Alazan or other old
bitches leads to laughter only; but If such
a thing were done it would only benefit
the smaller faction of the Mexican still
supporting all the Callaghan moves, the
other MexicaDs and white laborers, would
soon be told that there is not work enough
to ''go round" Besides, how would they
get paid, If they did work, the taxpayers
have spoken twice lately in unmistakable
terms that this. administration has no
credit, and 1t has no money.

TIRED OF LIFE.
Young Epgley Attempts Suicide
Love the Cause.


L. b. Kegley. bright young man, aged
\ tweRty- tive years, arrived in San ANTONIO
\ about ten weeks ago from Fairfield
\ Wash, and engaged a room at the board
ing house of NarciS0 Leal, on South
Flores street. He came here for the pur'
pose of loea ting, having kept a lookout
| for an opening suitable, being DESTROYS OF
entering into the mercantile business. II
seems that he has had. a lady friend, who
resides in Fairfield, whom he was greatly
! in love with. Many letters have been re-
ceived from her during his stay in the
city, and, Judging from the tune of some
of them. a very close relation existed be-
tween the two. Last week he received d
package from her containing a number oil
presents, pictures and letters, meaning, il
is presumed, that their friendship would
no longer exist.
From that time on kegley has been
very Respondent and has acted in such a
strange manner as TO arouse thesusplclon
of his friends, they thinking, at times, he
was of unsou1d mind.
Kegley is the poSSesSor of some property
in Fairfield. Saturday afternoon, in one
OF his SorrOwful moments, he decided to
his brother John Il. Kegley, this proper
ty. He then repaired to a second hand
furniture establishment and sold his 1ur-
niture. valued at $40 for 81. With this
amount he purchased. a 80 ealibre pistol
and returned to his stopping place, still
being in a disp0ndent state
Yesterday morning he arose abeut Z
O'Clock and ate breakfast as usual. About
10 o'clock he proposed taking a walk with
Mr.. Leal, and the two started north on
Flores street, arriving at the corner OF
South Flores and Nueva streets, kegley
pulled from his pocket, the deed 20 his
brother, handed it to Leal and said:
please send this to my brother" No
sooner had Leai received the document,
when the heart broken man pulled the
recently purchased pistol from his pocket.
placed IL TO his head and fired, the ball
entering his left ear and going in a down
ward direction, breaking his left jaw
bone. He fell to the ground and called
for help. Mr.. Leal telephOned to police
headquarter and The unfortunate man
was conveyed to the Santa Rosa hOspi-
tai. DIR. Braunagel was summoned at
once and administered all medical aid
possible.
In the envelope. which contained the
deed TO his brother, was the following
note written to Mr. Leal:
'Narciso Leal-See that my body has
a very cheap burial. Expect some money
from home in about week. E. Il. Keg-
ley"
At this writing Kegley is in very
critical condition and, while there is a
possibility Of recovery, 1t is doubtful.

SAN ANTONIO DEFEATED.
Mission Athletic Win - Hot Game
Of Football


That in the position the San Antonio
| football that now stand in, after their
game yesterday afternoon with the Mis-
sion Athletics at San Pedro Spring park
| The San AntOnio'S. lined up with only
eight men in the first half and some in
the second, while the Missions had their
full team. Harry Wurzbach of the High
School team worked the whistle, calling
the game at SOP. 70. From the kick #
the game was of the most excitin q
nature, both goals being in jeopardy on
several occasions, although Simpson of
the San Antonio had the most opDortuni-
ties Of showing his powers as goal
keeper Half time arrived with both
sides even, neither having been able to
make score. After the interval the ball
was again set in motion, and some fine
kicking end tackliEg was exhibited on
both sides. From a good drive by Phil
lips the ball was brought right into the
San AntOniO's goal, fierce scriminage,
waged right under the bar for several
minutes, the goal-keeper clearing In
grand style, but an exultant shout pro-
that which was needed by putting the
ball past Simpson, making the only
goal of the day for the Missions,
The San AntOniO's from this time on
played with vim that carried every
thing before them, and for the next ten
minutes caused Gabe Casell, the Missions
goal keeper, some uneasineSs, but he met
all their efforts successfully and his goal
intact, although shot at LIE Velle very
nearly got him and another by Russell
scraped the bar. The Missions played
one OF the finest games they have ever
put up and are decidedly Improving. The
San Antonio team has lost several good
players lately, out some of its "a W recruits
promises to become fine players, "Gum-
my" Hambleton, who is one of them, dis
tinguished himself yesterday and played
almost as good game as Macdonald or
LIE Velle and his playingis very much of
the same character as theirs, while Shin,
another green one', showed great ca
pacity and made some excellent plays.

SILVER IN INDIA.
Silver DemOnetiZed in India. The
Work of Ruin to be
Continued.
THE DUTY OF THE PEOPLE.

The English money-classes, Called
the English government,) have de-
mOnetized silver in India, by shut
ting the mints.in it's face. India has
used nothing but silver, as money,
for 5000 years. This action will re-
duce all values in that ancient land
about half, and bring the swarming
millions to depths of wrechedness
unheard of even in all their dismal
past. At the same time the demand
for gold throughout the world will be
increased by the necessities of $780,
600, 900 people who have not hereto
fore used it.
The object of England's action is
to force the repeal of the Sherman
act by the coming session of con-
greSs. 1t may succeed. We clip the
following telegram from the daily
press:
DENVER, Col, June ga promi-
nent member of the clearing house
association to-day, in speaking of the
silver situation, said:
"The closing of the mints to silver
coinage in India will precipitate the
settlement Of the silver question
Viewed from this standpoint, it is

not to be regretted. It will not
weaken the cause of silver nor will it
shake the confidence of the friends
of free coinage in ultimate success.
The money changers have but one
more point to gain, and that is to Sc
cure the repeal of the Sherman silver
act. With that accomplished, every
impediment that they have declared
ObStructed the paths of prosperity
will have been swept away and gener-
al relief to the people of the whole
world will be the prompt and imme-
date result. Instead of this how
ever, universal ruin and bankruptcy
will follow, and the people will take
the remedy into their own hands,
and that remedy will be of the heroic
order. 1t may we'll be doubted if it
would be good policy to oppose the re-
peal of the Sherman act any further.
The friends of free coinage will gain
rather than lose by acceding to the
last demand of the mOnOmetallists,
for there will no longer be any room
for controversy. There being no
money other than gold, and it being
controlled by a comparative few, it
will only be employed to extort
nsuriOuS interest for it's use from
those who must submit or be ruined.
1t does not require the wisdom of a
prophet to foretell the result of such
a condition. Ninety-fve per cent Of
the people of the earth will then be
made to thoroughly appreciate their
relation to the remaining per cent,
and they will proceed to equalize
things. Just what course they will
pursue remains to be seen.'
The world is on the eve of great
events. 1t may be that Gods hand

ENGLAND STRIKE ES
A Blow at American Interests by
DemOnetizing Indian Silver.
General Weaver Sounds a Clarion
Note in Defense of Ameri.
can Independence.

The following noble utterance was
received last week from General
Weaver just as the REPRESENTA-
TIVE was delivered from the press.
Although it's appearance is too late
to arouse the intended response on
the nations birthday it's fervid pa
triotism should stir our people to ac-
tiOn and send an appeal from the
people to their servants at Washing-
ton that congress will not dare ignore
in the coming special session.
CoNCORDIA, Kan, June %, '93.
Special to the REPRESENTATIVE:
The action of the British govern
ment in closing the mints of India
against the free coinage of silver is a
cruel blow at the Industry of the
world and is the last brutal act in
the national conspiracy of 1898,
against American interests. It is in
tended to kill the free silver move
ment in the United States and will
be resented by a united movement of
the people. England once forced US
to proclaim political independence.
She has now struck the blow that
will cause us to issue second decla-
ration of Independence and'throw her
off financially. No self respecting
American will join her in her brutal
warfare for the financial dominion of
the world. The people will now forget
all past differences and strike for the
financial independence of their own
country. The coming fourth of July
will be an excellent day for them to
start the ball rolling.

The Truth Spreading.

Hon. Geo. F. Edmunds who, for a
quarter of century, was U. S. Sen
ator. from Vermont, and enjoyed the
reputation of being one of the pur-
est, most scholarly and ablest men
that every sat in that body, has just
been interviewed and declares that
silver must be 4enaonetized! He says
the act of 1873 was a great mistake,
although he voted for it.
The light is gradually breaking in
all clear brains. All the populists
have to do is to stand by their guns
and never give up the fight. /. D.

thirty-five years ago plotted t20ver-

John Browns body lies moulding in

Are the money power of the world
advancing, in like manner, to their
own doom? It looks like it.
A complete re-casting of party
lines seems probable. Congressman
Richard P. Bland of Missouri, author
of "the Bland bill," says:
''On the contrary, I think that if
congress does not adopt some meas
ure looking to a bi-metallic stand
ard it will make the battle of stand
ards the coming issue in this country.
This battle will disrupt political
parties and cause a contest between
the commercial centers and the agri-
cultural districts of the country.
The demonetization of silver is con-
Splracy between the banking institu-
tions of England and the eastern
portions OF the United States, and
the supensiOn of silver coinage in
India is part of this conspiracy to
bulldoze the congress of the United
States into the adoption of the single
gold standard. l do not believe that
they will succeed"
In the meantime brethren, get
ye ready for the fray. Organize-or-
ganize-organize. Educate-educate

undisciplined, unarmed mob in the
face of drilled army, equipped
with gatling guns.

looming up in the near future? Or
will you lie down supinely, and see
this fair land, and the heritage of
your children-liberty and prosperity
