WHAT LABOR Will Do.

Considerable talk has been INDUCED
in to the effect that there is likely TO be
wholesale exodus of the laboring men
to the Populist party this fall.
Several labor orgaizations have taken
a pledge, it is reported, to vote the Pop
ulist ticket. Cheap expressions of SIM
pathy for the A. r. U. men from Popu-
list officials, it is held in some quarters,
will draw the labor vote to the third
party.
Debs is working in this way. He is
asking the workingmen to vote the
Populist ticket. Sovereign has taken
the same cue. He also advises the
workingmen to vote a third party
ticket. Sovereign, it will be remem-
bered, also advised the Knights Of Labor
to strike.
They didn't do it. It will be the same
way when he orders them to vote the
Populist ticket. They will not do it. The
laboring man viii not vote the Populist
ticket on his advice, because his advice
is bad.
The Populists offer the workingman
nothing. They favor more and cheaper
money and government ownership of
railroads. They favor, in an imprac-
teal, indefinite way, higher wages for
the laboring man.
They talk about freeing the industrial
classes, but they propose no plan by
which it can be done
The laborlng man realizes this as well
ps any one. He knows, as any thinking
man would know, that all the legisla-
ton in favor OF the industrial classes
will do the industrial classes no good SO
long as industries are paralyzed.
Take the average workingman in any
manufacturing town. He is idle. He
must have work. lie can look across
the street and see the factory where he
worked closed up; doors and windows
nailed fast, He Should be at work there
and he knows it. lie IS observant
enough to have it well fixed in his mind
that that factory which gave him work
for years was closed up wien the Demo-
cratic party came into power,
He wants his factory open. Once
open, he knows that he Will secure work
there. He is asked TO vote the Populist
ticket He Will question himself: Does
the Populist party offer ANYTHING that
viii open that factory and give me
work: Government ownership of rail-
roads and the rights of industrial work
ers is all right, bur what I must have
now is bread and meat. l must get
them through work. Unless that fac
tory is open can get no work. That
factory must be OPEN"
That Is his immediate concern. So
ciaiislic theories and rose-tinted prom
ises are all right in their way, but now
he must have work not theories or ex-
periments. The Populists say they will
benefit him if they are elected, but they
do not propose TO do it by opening that
factory.
Who does promise 10 open that fac
tory: THAT is the one question the IL
dustrial worker asks himself. The Pop
uists do not The Democrats have
closed it. The Republican party is The
only party that promises to open it. It's
promises We're kept in the past, They
viii be KEEP; in the future.
The laboriug man wants work now.
When he gers it, he may devote himself
TO reading PopulisJ theories as diver

to the difference between wages abroad
imported cigars, wines and liquors, silks,
tapes. laces, diamonds and other costly
jewels would pay duty, while coffee,
tea, spices and foreign textiles, classed
as staples. would be admitted free. The
application of this rule also protects that
greatest of all American commodi-
ties-American labor. This is. the one
item which has suffered most under all
laws to date, and with the present ten
dency towards unrestricted competition
with tue pauper labor of the world, Re-
pubIicans may well consid this as the
opportune moment to check the drift in
that direction. It is the working people
who viii still do the voting in this coun-
try, and they will hardly stand idly by
and see their birthright bartered away by
trading, plutocratic administration.
On the contrary they will at the first OPP
portunity, be found in line protecting
their own interests.
There is also an outspoken dec
laration in favor of the rehabilit-
alton of silver The resolution
reads as follows: 1--WE be-
lieye in the use of gold and silver as
money metals, 10 be maintained in cir
culation on perfect equality and inter-
convertibility. We recognize the So
called silver question as one of the
paramount issues of the day and believe
the people of this state can, and do, look
to the Republican party az the only
party that can give wise and adequate
solution of the problem" There is a
further pledge that the party will use
every effort to restore silver to its proper
use as money metal. This is the talk
which western people will indorse and
with such banner nailed to our mast
there will not be q western state casting
her vote for the trust begotten clique
now playing into the hands of Wall
street and European gold barons.

The Marquesans are very skillful in
building canoes and making war weap-
ons, and before the coming of white
missionaries, about forty years ago, the
tribes on the different islands were per-
petually at war with each other. One
curious method they had of declaring
war was TO send into the country of
their enemies secret spy. whose duty
1t was to Kill or injure ali the bread
fruit trees he could. As breaGfruit Is
one of the principal articles of food
with these people, this cruel act might
be called cutting off supplies Prison
ers who We're taken in battle were in
varlably offered up as sacrifices 10 their
gods, but unlike the New Zealanders
and the Fijians, the Marquesans were
not cannibaIs.
The Marquesans manage their canoes
with great skill and, of course, are ex-
cellent swimmers. The shores of their
islands are resorted TO by great NUM-
bers of mOnstrous sharks; but instead
OF being intimidated, the dusky swim
mers do not hesitate TO leap into the
water and dive down to attack the
sharks with their knives. The fact
that very few of them are ever killed
IN this dangerous work shows how skill
full and brave they are.
Excepting the chiefs, who are per-
mitted to have as many wives as they
choose, the Marquesans do not prac-
tice polygamy. One reason, 1 think,
why the women are not physically
so fine as the men is the fact that
all the work devolves on them. They
are virtually the hewers Of wood and
the drawers of water. and they do all
the agricultural work of the islands,
which is very considera BILE, as the prin-
cipal food is fruit and vegets bles.
While naturally quick-tempered and
inclined TO be domineering, the Mar
quesan islanders are fond of children,
and particularly of their own. Mis-
sionaries, some OF them sent out by
American societies, have established
schools all over the islands, and the
children being very bright and fond of
study, 1 am told that they excel white
children of the same age.
Like all the Pacific islanders, these
people are exceedingly fond of their
own homes. Some years ago number
of boys and girls were taken to En-
gland to be educated. Soon after reach
ing there they were seized with home
sckness, which their white frien6a
could not understand, and, sad to state,
all of them died. Since then it has
been nearly impossible to get Mar
Quesan to leave his beautiful island
home.

IT SMELLS HIGHER,

The Lewelling administration is not
going to find the penitentiary scandal SO
easily dismissed. His declaration that
the charges were all chatter will not
prove conclusive. John w. Yarroll, the
ex-chief clerk, and other PopulistS who
know of Warden Chase's crookedness.
and who fear its results TO the Pop party
should the Republicans get a chance 10
air them, have filed new and more
specific charges. The new manifesto is
so comprehensive that it would enforce
an inquiry into every official act of the
warden. Entirely new counts are in
corporated, some of them covering
transactions subsequent to the late sham
investigation. 1t would prove both
craftsmanship and true partizanship for
Governor Lewelling to order a statutory
investigation.

INGALLS, DEFENDED.

The Atchison Champion defends Nj.
ingalls, for his onslaught on the Demo
cratic leaders of Kansas and criticises
the Capital for suggesting that his speech
was impoltic because of its bluntness.
The Champion is right. The Demo
cratic leaders of Kansas are wholly re-
sponslble for the present Pop admins
tratlCn. 1t Is useless to deny the truth.
In fact, the great body of the party
talked Democracy but voted for Pop
candidates. And no maa can tell what
that party will do or how they will vote
this fall. If Jerry Simpson is reelected
it will be by Democratic votes. There
are not enough Pop votes in the Seventh
district to save the man who stood by
the option dealers. While, unquestion-
ably, the average Democratic voter is
honest in his political convictions and is
earnest in his belief that his principles
are best for the people as whole, the
fact remains that their leaders are but
schemers for personal ends and indi-
vidual gain. Ingalls,. therefore, is war
ranted in criticising, in the severes.
terms, the insincerity and double deal.
