cast out to light up the nights Of dis
pondency and gloom. The toiling moth
ers who gave birth to children have
impaired their hidden forces, through
the laws Of life and being, and their sons
have been the giants of the ages. The
heritage of toll has had within it the
soul dust Of genius and the power OF
natural greatness. The psthos Of poverty
and the bitterness Of oppression have
marked the generations, and men are
born whose souls have touched the
shadows, and are ever fighting invisible
forces to obtain the light. The rough
stones from the quRrriss Of unnatural
suffering are being squared by the work
men to build the structure of human
equality. Noble women, who rocked the
cradles Of toll, have, like the Spartan
mothers, given birth to men who are in
the province Of God the saviors Of the
race.
The gathered forces OF q thousand
years beat against the strongholds Of
wrong. The tide-marks, sweeping up
ward, are scanning the rocks, and more
perfect civilization is the evolution Of
these giant forces of unrest that bring
progress out Of the laws Of change.
Verify, my brethren, the Gallilean fisher
men are sgsin speaking in the market
place, and the gospel Of the Thorn
Crowned Prince is being taught in q
newer and better manner than ever be-
fore. The centurlons pause, the lances
fall, while the loose sandals Of the toll
ers mark the path Of human liberty.

The Best Corn HarVesters.

The only corn cutter worthy Of that
name Is, in my judgement, the Blue
Valley Corn Harvester, which Harold
& Mails, of Manhattan, Kas., are the pat
entees and manufacturers. We have
practically demonstrated the working
power Of this machine and regard it as
indispensable to every farm. The rapid
ity OF its work, safety to man and beast,
ease with which it is operated, all COM
bine 10 recommend it to every man who
raises corn. Il affords US pleasure to
have the opportunity to endorse so use
ful a machine, ss the price is such as to
place it within the reach Of all.

To Our New Members of Congress from
Kansas,

GENTLRMEN:-Permit a farmer con-
stituent who has had some little expert
ence in the line of business and duty you
are soor to enter upon, to suggest some
incidents connected Herewith, that you
ought to be spprised Of in advance, but
which he was obliged to learn in the
hard school of experience. And, first,
you will find on your arrival in Wash
ington that you are enveloped in q very
different atmosphere from that to which
you have been accustomed, and you will
be surprised to learn that most Of your
notions of finance, economy and legis-
lstion are regarded as Rntiquated and
barren by those with whom you come in
contact. You will be expected to lay
aside your picsyunish ideas Of economy
and public policy, and take on more
enlarged and more comprehensive view
of things-of the nation and it's resources,
it's glory and its grandeur. Most new
members prove trsctsble scholars, and
readily accept this ordeal, which they
are told is necessary to fit them for pub
lie service and successful career. And
your teachers will be imperious-Will
brook no hesitation and listen to no an
tiqusted platitudes drawn from country
habits and nrivRtA life. You muRt hA-
come as thoroughly changed as you will
be at the resurrection, but in q far differ
ent way. And all this is preparatory to
events to come-grest and benefcent
lines Of policy to be opened up here
after. 1t was in virtue Of just such pre-
psratory tutelsge that whole congress
was brought to vote the famous SALARY
grab," to the ruin Of very many of it's
members and the deep disgust Of others
who like Garfield, returned the money
when they came to breathe the purified
air of their constituency. And it was
in pursuance of such teachings, that the
"Credit Mobelier scandal" came to pass,
and the skirts Of many to be tainted
who never participated in the swag. Men
don't think for themselves in Washing
ton, more thar they drink water there,
as is said. They follow bell wsthers,
rs they did Sherman and Ben Butler,

onstrated by experience, And the most
remarkable circumstance about 1t is that
though the nation always has recourse
to 1T when in trouble and it always
carries her safely through, yet on the
return Of peace, it ia always whistled
down the wind az dangerous expedient
and the banks and bankers are again
given full sway to prey upon the people
and Of course flourish like green bay
trees.
But again says Mr.. Jefferson: "It
will be asked, are We to have no bRnksH
/ answer, yes; but let them be such as
are to be found in any country on earth
except Great Britain" In our day we
look to Great Britain alone on the money
question. Let those among US who have
q moneyed capital and prefer employing
It in loans than otherwise, set up banks,
and give coin or national bills for the
notes they discount. 1t is from Great
Britain we copy the idea OF giving bank
notes in exchange for discounted bills.
And while we have derived from her
some good principles Of government and
legislation, we unfortunately run into
most servile imitation Of all her practices;
and among them her bsnksystem, which
is carrying her rapidly to bankruptcy as
it did US and will do us again, and every
country permitting paper to be circu-
lated other than by public authority,
vigorously limited to the just measure
for circulation. Private fortunes, in the
present state Of our circulation, are at
the mercy of those self-created money
lenders and are prostrated by the floods
Of nominal money with which their ava
rice deluges US. He who lent his money
twenty years ago and before the institu-
tuition Of the United States bank, when
wheat was well sold at 81 bushel, and
receives now the nominal sum of $2 q
bushel is cheated out Of half his due, and
by whomY BY the banks which since
that time have thrown into circulation
$40 Of nominal money where was 81 at
the time. And so Oice VersG, we can say
that the man who lent his money twenty
five years ago when wheat was 81
bushel and receives it back now when
wheat is 30 cents, has his capital in
creased four-fold and the debtor suffers
in having to raise and sell four times the
quantity Of wheat to discharge debt
repres eniiDg any given quantity at that
time. Is that not beautiful system of
currencyP Think of a people even toler-
ating it and much less deliberately Gre
ating il for their uses aid purposes; no,
their Impeachment and ruin.
l shall continue the subject hereafter
with further citations from Jefferson,
Rs also from President Jackson, Senator
Benton, Mr.. Calhoun, VIM. Oobbett and
other luminsries Of democracy, and then
/ shall demand that the party proceed to
enforce democratic principles Gnstead Of
contenting itself with merely PROCESSING
and proclaiming them) by dlscharging
the most important function Of govern
ment, the creation Of it's money in lieu
Of IA rming out the privilege to the foes
and the rich, to the great dstriment of
the people.

The moral of which is, that it is always
safe to keep your own counsel, distrust
all advisers and vote "no" on everything
you doubt or don't fully understand. BE
no mans man, but your own leader. And
remember that though not present, 6
hundred eyes at home are upon you
Therefore don't mistake Washington
politics for public opinion, nor use q CON

the popular pulse. And above all, don'I

Early on your arrival at the capitol, you
will be met by very digni6ed and pomp
GUS gentlemen for the purpose of inter.
viewing you on the subject Of finance
and other questions, and you are very
liable to consider them as divine author
ity in the premises. But John Martin
sized them up pretty correctly in his
response to the New York Times; and il
you exercise your western prerogative tc
"try sll things" ETC., you will soon dis
cover that their pIstitudes all lead in
one direction, to-wit: Into their OWE
pockets or to the aggrandizement Of the
millionaire instead Of the millions. It il
their purpose rather than their preten.
tions you want to fSthom; and this gen
orally has relation to their own interest
instead Of the public veal. OF course
they and their tools and hunkeys will
cry, ''fools, cranks, idiots" etc, if you
presume to question their designs oil
turn them down; but you have had ex'
perience in that line at home and CAM

for reform and the welfare Of mankind
are always abused and villified by the
privileged few and those who fstten on

pie.
But I have departed very far from
the original purpose / had in view in ad-
dressing you, which was in reference to
one feature of the financial problem, to-
wit: The repeal Of the 40 per cent. bank
tax" is it is known, and the design Of
such repeal. Now, if the object of that
is to return to the old state bank system
and to q state bank currency, then, in
the name Of Thomas Jefferson, Andrew
Jackson, Thomas Ell. Benton and all the
saints Of democracy and sound money
/ object both on grounds of principle
and policy, reason and experience. And
l shall content myself, chiefly, in letting
them declare the law and the gospel on
the subject for themselves; and having
been heard they should be needed. For
in this age there is too much of "hold,
in g the word of Jefferson to the ear and
breaking it to the hope"
OF course it is known to you that the
constitution Of the United States posi-
lively declares that no state shall "coin
money nor issue bills of credit" And il

ocal language, it certainly prohibits the

and rot To lie Gobblsd Up.
Hon. C. w. Writers of St. Adams, at
torney for the Central Vermont Railroad
company, was In the city Friday on bug
mess connected with the defunct First Ma
tiona bank OF st. Adams, OF which he is
receiver. He greeted q representative of the
FREE PRESS with the remark, "Well, / see
the newspapers have not lensod the Central
Vermont vet" MIR. Writer'S said that the
talk of the Boston and Maine gobbing up
tho Central Vermont was all bosh. why"
he said, "people do not seem to understand
that the Central Vermont railroad system
is one of the greatest freight gathering rail-
roads in the country; 1t is feeder OF other
roads. This makes 1t comparatively inde-
pendent and for the interest OF connecting
roads to work in harmony with it 80 as to
get its freight traffic TO haul. There is
wide difference in freight gathering and a
freight taking road.
The Central Vermont has q terminus at
Chicago and eleven grain vessels ply between
that city and Ogdensburg, where the COM
pany has big elevator. The Ogdsnsburg
division meets the vessels there. Can any
railroad in New England compete with the
Central in handling grain The Con
trail division runs to st. Johns,
btanoridge and Waterloo, Canada TAX
ing in large hay producing territory.
The Canada Atlantic railway, In which the
Central Vermont is largely interested, runs
from Rouses Point to the great lumber
mills at Ottawa and the distribution of Can
ada lumber throughout Now England nat
urally goes over the Central. SO then, the
system, aside from "a miles-the Sullivan
Valley rond-between Bellows Falls and
Brattleboro, extends from Chicago to New
London, Conn. No, the Central Vermont
will never be gobbsd up and il any CORPORA
ton ever gets the line it will be purchased
as an investment. The way business OF the
road is olso enormous; the thriving cities,
villages snd towns upon it furnish AMI re
ceve great amount Of freight from the
commercial centres Of the country.
The Boston aud Maine does not enter into
competition, TO any extent, with the Central
Ver.non..'
