To say that 10 per cent. Of the roads are un-

the corporation upon Its feet. This
done, it's affairs are again turned over
to corporation management, and the
former process is repested. The
Erie road, for instance, Is now in the

and still it is said railroads can only
be successfully operated by great cor

charge Of these bankrupt roads, after
placing the business "upon it's feet,'
to continue, under the direction oi
the government, to operate them in
the interest and for the benefit Of the

The story that Governor Level

Clark who committed a murder in
Kansas City few days ago, has now
nearly made the circuit of the repub-

in the little seven by nine "me too

the republican organs have all pro-
claimed it. Of course there is no

A solemn fact which knocks the
wind out of the above paragraphs
and many more of similar import now
appearing in republican papers, is
that the robbery was committed by
republican "hold-overs;" and it shows
that the mistake made by the new
board was in not making a clean
sweep Of the whole outfit. 1t is prob
able that this system of robbery has
been going on for years and is only

THE ARMY OF THE UNEMPLOYED

THE ARMY OF THE UNEMPLOYED.
At recent meeting of the unem-
ployed in Cincinnati, the following
resolutions were adopted, and COM
mittee of twenty-three was appointed
to present them to the mayor Of the
city. The resolutions need no COM
ment:
WHEREAS, The Bill of Rights declares that
we have the right TO enjoy and defend life
and liberty; that government is instituted
for our equal protection and benefit; and
that we have the right to assemble TO con-
suit for our common good, to instruct our
representatives and TO demand redress for
our grievances; and
WHEREAS, By the platforms of political
parties, and by the representatives Of the
public press, our confidence was gained and
our ballots secured for their candidates; and
WHEREAS, By their administration and
legislation, we expected TO be prosperous
and happy, through good wages and steady
employment, but instead they have eStab-
lished and are now fostering and protecting
a banking system for the protection and
benefit of capital, while We are compelled
TO pay in advance for shelter, and cash down
to sustain life; and
WHEREAS, The money trust by this bank
ing system depreciates property, increases
the value of debts, paralyzes business by
ducing or refusing wsge-money to our en-
ployers and by compelling them to liqui-
date.
WHEREAS, In peace we create wealth, in
war we defend it, and in neither case do we
enjoy it, and as we are not responsible for
our present condition, we, as industrious,
patriotic and aw.sbiding citizens, protest
against being deemed a menace or treated
as paupers. We do not beg charity, but We
do demand work, 80 that our wives and
children may have shelter and live. As men
we protest against being driven to the soup
houses like'cattle, while bounteous harvest
has blessed the lands and millions lie idle in
the vaults of the banks Of the nation.
While the life Of the nation was in danger
We rallied to it's defense, now we ask the
nation TO come to our rescue. Therefore,
be it
RESOLVED, That as sovereign citizens we
demand that the municipality, the State and
the Federal Government furnish work TO the
unemployed, or suspend distraint for rent,
and establish depOtS to provide them with
provisions on credit, or loan them money
for their support until they are re-employed.

The faults you see in me take care to shun,
And look at home, enough there's to be done
EDITOR ADvoCATE:-You have an &rti-
Gle in your last issue from Mr.. Q. Blake
on the subjsCt Of finance, interest, etc.
Whilst some of his theories may bs AC-
cepted, many Of his "facts" are as de-
pendRble Rs those q gentleman OF the
same name laid down about Kansas
weather a while back. The Bank OF
England is not controlled by RothsChilds
(of London, suppose. Mr.. Blake does
not particularize the individually, but has
an independent directorate OF twenty
four members. They have to comply
with certain laws specially applicable to
the Bank Of England Company. In other
ways they are quitO independent Of tho GOO
ernment. I hope these facts will not be
too great q shock to Mr.. Blake and simi.
lar theorists. The stock money is owned
by anybody SOhO chooses to buy 81, being
always for sale on the London stock ex-
change. II Mr.. Blake will furnish the
cash, l will get him some shares, as he
thinks Bank Of England stock such q
soft snap. fear he will be disappointed
when he learns that the interest on the
share stock is something under 8 per
cent. per snnum. l am speaking Of the
rate of interest from memory, and am
open to corrsotion-but not by theorists
or dreamers who think their ideas make
facts, but by the official returns, The
bulk Of the bank Of England stock is
held by small capitalists residing in
England, though / have understood that
foreigners own considerable portion. A
list Of the owners could beprocured were
it necessary. On the directorate Of
twenty-four members, there Is only one
'lord"-he a ScotchmRn. There is also
one baronet; the balance are cOmmoners
England assumed the proteCtorste Of
Egypt to prevent anarchy and the prob
able destruction Of the Suez canal. Sh'
has reduced the rate of interest on thC
unified debt to 4 per cent, abolished
forced labor "a species Of slavery, And
raised the condition OF the jellaheer
Qand-worker) some so per cent. NJ
doubt that condition is not yet what il
should be, but great improvements take
time. Some Of the Egyptian debt psYl
as low as 31S per cent. Before the Brit
ish control, it was from to 10, and thu
capital is being steadily reduced. Tht
Egyptian debt is owned by thousands o.
different people in France, as well as il
England. No great capitalist owns the
bulk Of it.
Now, sir, il it be true, as you hsvI
more than once stated, that your col
umus are open TO the correction of un
true statements, must ask for the
insertion of this letter.
