We have heard the voice of re-

This melody is yet borne to our
hearts from every land, though
we hear it not as the world hears,
for the singers have gone from
this land of sowing and reaping.
The mother of Moses dared

this exposure of her baby broth

beauty and hclplessness of the

1t is argued by some persons,
that Adam was overwhelmed with
grief when Eve sinncd, and that
he partook of the same fruit that
he might share her life and not be
parted from her in death. His
love could not endure Il separa-
ton. But, so far as we have
heard, he never uttered word
in her behalf, because of her tim

forth together from their beauti-
full home, to stand or fall on their

hold from those who suffer, from
all who need our help, if it be in

Platform of the Prohibition Party of Mis-
sissippi, Adopted at jackson, June
9Th, 1894

The Prohibition Party of Mississippi,
in Convention assembled, acknowledge
ing Almighty God as the source of all
true government and His law as the
standard to which human enactments
must conform to secure the blessings
of peace and prosperity, present the
following declaration of principles:
LIST. We declare our allegiance to the
National Prohibition party and re-af-
firm our endorsement of the National
platform adopted at Cincinnati June
Both, 1892.
2nd, AS the ballot is the bulwark of
the peoples liberties, we favor an in
telligent standard of suffrage and hon
esty and purity in all elections by the
people, and demand that all parties
shall be fairly represented on election
boards in this State.
3rd, We condemn, in unmeasured
terms, the spirit of mob violence which
prevails in this and other States, where
by many citizens have been put to Il
cruel and speedy death without the
benefit of Judge or jury or the oppor-
tunity to prove their Innocence as
guaranteed to them by the Constitu-
ton of the United States.
4th, We demand the repeal Of the
United States Internal Rev enuc law au
thorizing the issuance of Government
permits for the sale of liquor in Prohi-
bition territory.
9TH, In view of the serious and
alarming industrial and financial con-
ditions of the country, we deem the
settlement of the currency question in
in accordance with the principles laid
down by the Prohibition party of ur
gent concern, second only in impor
lance to the suppression of the liquor
traffic itself. THE money of the coun-
try should consist ofgold, silver and pa
per, and be issued by the General Gov
eminent only, and in sufficient guam
tity to meet the demands of business
and give full opportunity for the en-
plOyment of labor. To this end an in
crease in the volume of money is de-
handed. No individual or corpora
ton should be allowed to make any
profit through its issue. 1t should be
made legal tender for the payment of
all debts, public and private. It's vol
ume should be fixed at a definite sum
per capita and made to increase with
our increasing population.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1894-11-13
RESDLUTION.

Resolved, That we cannot too Sc
verely condemn the action of Missis-
sippi's Congressman in the House of
the 5lst Congress, every one of whom,
except Hon. Clarke Lewis of the 4th
District, opposed the passage Of the
Wilson original package bill, whereby
it was sought to prevent the nullifica-
ton of all the Prohibition laws in this
and other States.

Those of our citizens who went east

hitler with murky and woebegone
faces, telling many tale of mud and
rocks and stnmps. Surely, life in
Kansas is better than great riches.
If the people may not approach the

should not the said capital approach the
people; OF anyway, why should it not
approach a little more nearly the geo.

Such an approach would save some

on Mission Creek. This attractive
property is twelve miles southwest of
Topeka. 1t consists of $50 acres. 1t
comprises some of the famous Mission
Greek bottoms.
The ranch has extensive barns and
sheds and is well adapted to the cattle
business, to which it is understood MIR.
King will devote it.
The most interesting feature of this
transaction is that Mr.. King is n cash
buyer, and Mr.. Horace King, the son,
who is III experienced cattle man,
having been for several years in the
cattle business IN Utah and Arizona,
will make this ranch his home. A
new house for his residence will be one
of the early improvements.
It is encouraging to note the eastern
men with money and experience are
beginning to discover that the rich
farming and pasture lands of Kansas
offer to-day the best investment that
Can be found east or west.
Messrs, King paid $40, 100000 cash
for the ranch. 1t is safe to say these
New Workers have made fortunate
purchase. Mr.. King is connected with

men are, and then ask yourself if there

THE POOR MAN SHOULD HAVE
NO RIGHTS.

''If the Washington police do their
duty as provided under all Old law,
General Coxey on his arrival in town
will not be permitted to move his army
as such; display Il banner vi any kind,
OF harangue the people OF congress-, Oh
pain OF arrest and imprisonment. 1t
would not he d bad thing for the coun-
try if this old law could be stretched to
the point of suppressing PETER when
he rises, whiskers i'll hand, to address
the Senate"
The above was taken from the
Morning Advertiser, a plutocratic sheet
printed just around the corner from
Wall Street, New York, which voices
the sentiments of all Eastern pluto
Gratis. Ii they had their way, it seems
that they would have strong centra-
lized government, and deny the light
of petition to the poorer class of
American citizens, and throw them
INTO prison, for the crime of entering
their capital city with banners Of any
kind. Yes, they would according tU
the Advertiser, deny them even the
right to be heard thu ugh their repre-
sentatives in congress. COM
nlOner.
We are glad to say that few people
are SO narrow and prejudiced as the
editor of the Morning Advertiser. We
say teD people for we lave some even
in our midst who overlook all the
grie. ious wrongs the people have tc
bear, and Say that this industrial army
is II vicious movement of anarchists
and their ilk. The people who tall
this way only betray their own igno
rance Of the times, and the trend Of
thought Of the age. 1t is only al out
break of the unrest pervading all class
es except the millionaire class.

THE ENEMY OF SILTER.

:, In the present terrible financial DIS
tress brought OIL by the gOld-bugs de-
stroying silver AS money, republicans
are trying to claim that they have fsv-
sf.d the coinage Of silver. Let US look
back little. Grant was elected i'm
! '72 by an overwhelming majority and
the republicans were in control OF both
branches of congress. In '73 silver
was stricken down. Again in 1890
when free coinage bill was certain to
pass both branches of congress John
Sherman, q republican, origln"f"l a
compromise bill known as the '.S!ier-
man silver purchase law" to prevent
free coinage of silver. In 1893 the
republicans voted with the democrats
TO stop all coinage of silver. Not all
Of them but nine-tenths of tbs repub-
licap members voted against the COIN
nge Of silver 1T amy ratio. Again in
1894 fys-sixths Of the republicans
voted against lhe silver seinorage bill
and when Cleveland. the arch-enemy
of the people. vetoed it the leading
republican papers of the east and the
west came out with such sentiments
Rs these:
"Republicans came to the rescue and
prevented the passage of the bill over
She Presidents veto. "-&. Louis Globe,
,Demoera.

against silver. ''-Neso York Tribune.
