THE REAL MASTERS.

The French corporation of canal
builders, who did not dig the Panama
canal, certainly had bribery reduced
to a science. Their experience at
home set them up as masters when
it became necessary to open shop in
this country.
A committee of Congress has in
vestigated with view to discovering
if the report was true, that a large
sum had been disbursed to influence
the position of the American Govern
ment, and the testimony developed
is so strong as to destroy doubt that
the charge was true.
To start with, the Hayes admins
tration was in charge. The Score.
tary of the Navy was Mr.. Thompson
of Indiana. The President took
occasion to call to the attention
of Congress that the construction
Of the canal was probably in viola
ton of the policy of this government
as set forth in the then honored Mon
roe doctrine, and suggested an in
quiry along that line. A resolution
of inquiry was accordingly introduced
by Mr.. Grape. Suddenly Mr..
Thompson resigned as Secretary of
the Navy to engage in a more lucra-
tive business. The resolution of in
ouiry slumbered in committee pig
eon-hole, and it has since been the
practice for statesmen to announce,
as did Senator Morgan recently,
that "not shred of the Monroe
doctrine remains"
When the recent developments in
relation to the wholesale boodllng in
France came to light, it was disoov-
cred that large fund had been dis
bursed In the United States. Some
was. traced to the metropolitan news
papers, but an immense sum was not

MR.. VILLARD'S RAILROAD.

Since the statement is published
that Mr.. Willard was the largest in
diyidual contributor to the Demo
cratic campaign fund, his plans and
political purposes become matter of
great concern to the people. It is
believed that he suggested the taking
of Gresham into the Cabinet, as
step toward securing a judge more
friendly to the railroad corporations.
The papers have also stated that it
was his influence that prompted the
name of Michael H. Smith, Esq, as
suitable administrator of the Interior
Department, where friendly hand
would be peculiarly acceptable in the
adjustment of differences between
the government and the Northern
Pacific railroad, growing out of land
grants.
The people of: the country learn
with peculiar interest that special
committee appointed at the last an
nual meeting of the Northern Pacific
railroad think that it Is high time
that there is shakeup in the affairs
Of that corporation. T1r. Willard is
chairman Of the board of directors,
agent for the German bondholders,
and an autoOrat in the management.

in from the people. Hence the vol
ume of the Currency remains just
the same.
Under this trick of appearing to
increase the supply of money the
Mansion House plotters expect to
quiet the people while they change
the law on Silver so as to shrink the
coinage to one half.
It may be worth while to remark
in passing that the Washington Post
discloses that the secret caucus at
Carlisle's Mansion last Sunday was
the result of bogus invitations sent
out by Horace Kenney, the gilt-eyed
Wall Street Editor of the Economist
Carlisle says these invitations are
forgeries- he did not authorize
them.
Now, if Kenney forged these in
vltations, who put him up to it Was
it Wall Street, or was it Macune, or
was it Livingston? It's a pretty
mess.
But to proceed. Hand in hand
with this plot goes that Of the two
Senators from Ohio, Sherman and
Brice. One of these precious crea-
lures is a Republican, the other a
Democrat.
The Republican Senator demands
an issue of Bonds to the tune of
$5O,O0O,O0O.
The Democratic Senator demands
that all outstanding paper of the
Government shall be payable in gold
alone.
All the odious features of the Re-
sumption Act Of 1875 are to be re-
vived. By the terms of that law the
Greenbacks were called in and burnt
up. So indignant did the people be-
come at the destruction of this cur
rency that the Act of 1873 was
passed, putting a stop to it.
Now, however, the Act of 1875 is
to be revived and the $346,00O,OO0
of Greenbacks which escaped de-
struction in 1878 are to be burned.
Silver is to be ruled out, Green
backs are to be burned and the peo-
pie forced to take the notes Of Ma
tional Bankers.
Instead of getting Government
money without interest charge, they
are to be driven to the use of Ma
tional Bank notes at a big per cent.
The business man are tho partridges
before whora the National Bankers
of Wall Street spread their net, and
the Party Rfsses do the driving in. .
How natural it is to see Macune,
Livingston, Ben Terrell, J. Fount
Tlllman ann the Economist go softly
and slyly over to the side of the dri-
vers and diligently "shoo'' the game
into the Peah
So far as the Senate is concerned
the drive has been successful. The
matter is now before us in the House.
The lobby is here in force. Cleve-
lands orders have been issued. Wall
Street is confident of victory.
We shall see.

Shortly after the Congressional
Elections of 1890, the Atlanta Con-
Stttattjo9a wrote to each of the new
Members for an expression of opin-
ion on the Silver and Tariff Cues
tons.
All of them wrote articles favoring
Free Silver and ''Tariff Reform"
Mr.. Livingston was especially
lengthy on Free Silver. He went
into a long and prosy account of the
way in which Ernest SeYd came
over here and bribed Congress to
legislate against Free Silver in 1873.
Sunday last, Feb. 10, 1898, this
same man, Lothario f. Livingston,
the risky member of Gideon's Band
who represents the Democrats of the
Atlanta District, was up to his arm
pits in secret intrigue having for
its ultimate purpose the same result
as Ernest Seyd accomplished.
The English Bankers are evidently
learning lesson. Instead of hiring
Boodlers to cross the ocean and
bride Congressman, they go to the
Congressman himself and thus save

[ suppose it comes cheaper.
| have a profound pity for the
farmers who elevate such men as
Livingston and Macune, and who
are then sold out by them to Wall
Street.
Both of these men a few years
ago were obscure, unimportant and
without means. The farmers trusted
them and promoted them to in
fuence.
This influence became a valuable
commodity in the political market.
It is always SO. Only an honest
man can resist the teT ptation to sell
the commodity and r. get the price.
Neither LivingstonV nor Macune
were honest. Therefore when the
political influence was theirs and a
high price was offered they sold out.
At the start the Farmers were
poor, just as Livingston and Macune
were poor. Now how does it stand !?
The Farmers are still poor while
Livingston and Macune are rich.
Does either of these men now talk
Sub-Treasury? Not much.
Does either demand National
Banks and clamor for Free Silver?
Not much.
The one has sold the Farmers
Organ to the deadliest enemies of
the farmers, while the other sneaks
around Washington to secret eau
cuses doing the dirty work of Ernest
Seyd.
Our people are very patient. Elk
ceedingly patient. Wonderfully
and surprisingly patient.
If the crimes against humanity,
Justice and honor which ! have seen
committed insolently and openly here
by protested friends of the people
continue to go forward unchecked
by warnings, the day will inevitably
come when the long enduring masses
will rise in burst of uncomfortable
wrath, and such men as Livingston,
Macune, Terrell and J. Fount Till

Gen. John Black is one of the
National leaders of "the dear old
Democratic Party" He draws 800
per month from the patient Tax
payer because he, the said Black, is
"mental and physical wreck" and
totally unable to work.
Under Cleveland's former admin
istration he drew $4,000 per year
from the patient Taxpayer as Com
missioner of Pensions, and under
Cleveland's next administration he
will draw $4,000 per year as Con
gresham.
This shows how artistically the
Democratic Bosses operate on the
pockets of the patient Taxpayer.
One of their national leaders loots
the Treasury of 500 per month on
the ground that he can't work and
S416 upon the ground that he can.
VIM. E. Davis, of Indiana, draws
a Pension of $40 per month upon
the ground, substantially, that he is
deaf in one ear and cannot hear
GOOD out of the other. Yet he gets
$1,000 per year'f for adjudicating &C
counts and running the Telephone
he's Democrat, of course. A man

of $3.50 because he cen has all the
qualifications for success which are
considered necessary in "the dear
