DEMOCRATIC PRAYER.
No. XII.

NJ, Nil
Most adorable and ever to be rever-
Snced Grover: Thou who art always
great, whether trampling tadpoles on
Hog Island, catching bass at Ruzzard's
Bay, or making congress tremtle in
its boots at Washington. We come to
thee once more TO thank thee for all
thou hast done for our party and for
the people. Our most esteemed politi-
cal father, thou dcest all things well,
and we are willing that thou shalt be
glorifed therein.
If congress is stubborn, thou takest
it by the nape of the neck and the
seat of the pants and shaketh it until
its free silver teeth rattle in it's head.
That is right Make them squirm.
Did they notvote for thee? Did they
not nominate thee? Did they not
stump the country and advise every
body to vote for thee? Verify they
did. Now, most adorable Cleveland,
make 'em toe the mark. Make 'em
pass resolutions praising thy ad-
ministration. Hold their noses
to the political grindstone while
the Populists and the republicans ride
on their backs. Give EN- the gold cure
until they puke up every time
honored principle" they ever knew.
Take their shaggy locks in the right
and left hand of thy wrath and bump
their heads togethe: until they prom
Use to kiss thy big toe. Most worthy
master, we commend to thy especial
care the southern congressman who
advised everybody to vote for thee,
who swore by Adams off OK that
thou vast the right stuff, who shared
the swag, and now are trying to re-
pudiate thee and profane thy great
name, Our worshipful master, don't
let them do it Drive 'em away from
thy pie counter. Follow them home
aud defeat their denomination. Sit
down on them with the Importance Of
thy political weight. Mash the ever.
lastin' stufin out OF them forever and
forever. As 10 US poor common peo'
pie who voted for thee, take nc
thought whatsoever.
Thou knowest our uprisings and ouI
downsittings. Thou canst tell it by
the patch on our pants.
tits glory enough for us to see thee
rule with an iron rod. We are but
the mud sills of society. Put thy feet
on us and mash us into the earth.
We fear thy name and thy mighty
power.
We shall never ask thee for any.
thing that will bring displeasure tc
thy fairness.

POLITICAL HASH.
SERVED HOT AND COLD TO
SUIT OUR READERS.
What Is Being Said and Done Here
There and Everywhere.

The Populist have always charged
that the leaders OF both old parties
were controlled by the money power
of the country, and that upon matters
affecting the interests of banks, corpo-
rations and trusts the representatives
of those parties would be found vot-
ing together Since the democratic
party has had control Of affairs the
truthfulness of these charges has been
demonstrated. On the question for
the demonstration of silver majority
of both parties voted TO strike down
silver. The democratic party has
fostered the interests of trusts the
same as the republican party. 1t has
acceeded to the demands of bankers as
did the republican party. 1t has sided
with railroad corporations as did the
republican party. In Oregon the demo-
Gratis voted with the republicans
against the Populists, and in Alabama
the strong republican counties
negroes gave the democratic candi-
date for governor the largest ma
jority.
And now comes the chairman of the
repub' ican state committee of Wiscon-
sin WHO explains the whole situation
and let's the political cat out of the
bag. He says:
THE present unsettled social and
economic conditions make it necessary
that the Populists should be driven out
of public life. The Populists are a
dangerous menace to law and order
and good government had
rather see decent democrat in the
house than an indecent Populist, and
so far as their principles are con-
cerned they are all indecent however
agreeable may be their personality.
ION the great vital questions where
the honor and dignity of the Ameri-
can people are concerned we will al
ways find the democrats voting with
the republicans for the common good.
The democrats have the same feeling
so far as the republicans are con-
cerned. They dislike our financial
and economic systems, but they know
we are sound on all the great ques-
lions of the day. So far as l can con-
troll it there will be no alliance be-
tween the republicans and the Popu-
lists in the hope of defeating the
democrats. From what l hear the
gentlemen who are managing the
democratic congressional campaign
entertain the same aversion to those
unholy alliances, and am glad of it.
If this program is faithfully carried
out by both sides we shall soon see
the last of Popullstic representation
in the house"

AS LoyG as cotton is below eight
cents per pound and wheat below one
dollar per busheI, gold will be ex.
ported to Europe. Whenever cotton
and wheat goes above those prices
gold will come to America. The first
step to raise the prices is to establish
the free coinage Of silver at 16 TO l.

GEN. WARNER makes the assertion
that there are more daily papers in
this country owned by foreigners than
there are in England. At this rate
England will be making our school
books, and George the Third will take
the place OF George Washington.

VOTERS should remember that gold
will leave this country as long as cot
ton is below eight cents per pound
and wheat below 81 per bushel. The
money exploiters will, under cd
party management keep the United
States treasury busy selling gold
bonds to get gold for them as long as
they hold power.

They stepped on the grass.

They stepped on the grass.
They offended thy fairness and the
servants Of thy fairness.
And the servants of thy fairness
swooped down upon them and gath
cred them in.
They smote them hip and thigh.
So be it, most gracious master, in
all thine enemies.
What business has poor man to
want that which he has not?
If he is not satisfied let him get off
the earth.
There are 100 many of them here
anyhow.
We thank thee, most gracious mas
ter, that they are being starved out
and shot and killed.
1t will make more room for thy
fairness.
Now take us into thy care. Put us
in the seat Of thy pants and sit down
on us whatsoever thou will. Tie us
in knot aid throw US TO the dogs,
but We will continue to praise thy
name forever and forever. Amen.
No PINKERToN, marshal, militia
man or any one else has been con-
victed for the hundreds of murders
they have committed while in the
service of corporations. Women and
children have been killed in their
homes and yards, women and men
have been killed walking the streets,
bombs have been thrown into their
houses while the family were asleep
and women and children killed by
them; and in no instance save one
has ever one OF them been arrested
and tried, and in the case tried the
corporations defended the accused
who were acquitted because they
| could not be identified as the ones
who did the murder. These murders
were committed by men in the service
of millionaires, who are democrats
and republicans, and who, give thou
sands to the campaign funds OF both
old parties. Will some of their
party speakers tell the people
why none of these murderers have
been punished? Why Is not Cal Brice
Carnegie, Vanderbilts, Goulds, Sage,
Frick and others as much guilty oil
murder when they hire men, arm
them, and men, women and children
are killed by them, as Parsons, the
anarchist, was who was hung for ap.
proving OF crime not knowing il
was to be done and not being present
when it was committed. Have the rich
corporations or individual the right
to kill and Stay any more than the
poor worker? If both kill had ought
not both be punished? Where does
the Pinkerton company get their au.
thority to hire and arm men to fight
for experimentation them and
number them so thateven their names
are lost? When one of them is ar.
rested, as many Of his comrades as are
necessary are on hand to swear he is
innocent. They are assassins hired
to kill-and to xiii without fear Of
punishment.
Americans, 20 this condition has the
old parties who are owned by the cor.
porations brought you. How long
will you support parties who allow
bands OF assassins in times OF trouble
to kill at Will? Vote them out!

The country is wondering now what
the democrats made their Chicago
platform for. While their declaration
on the silver question was straddle,
it was interpreted in the west ana
south to mean the repeal of the Sher-
man law with law providing for free
-slnage. Instead of that the
party demonetized free silver. The
platform declared explicitly in favor
of repeating the state bank tax.
When the question came up the party
voted itdown. The platform declared
in favor Of local self government.
That principle was never so ruthlessly
violated as when Cleveland sent
United States troops to Chicago
against the protests of both the mayor
OF the city and the governor of the
state. The platform declares its hos
tilitY to trusts, yet it is known to all
that the party conceded to the en-
actions of the sugar, coal, iron and
other trusts in the formation of the
tariff bill
The platform declared its devotion
to the interests of the people, yet
their petitions have been ignored and
the demands of corporations and
banks been acceeded to as they never
were before in the history of the
country. With professions of economy
still ringing in the ears of the people
they have voted themselves extra pay
in the way of mileage
and clerk hire that ought to
shame the devil. The cries of
the workingmen have gone UNDECIDED.
The distressed condition OF the coun-
try has been ignored. It seemed 10
have been the sole object of the pres
ent congress to look after and foster
the inserests Of Wall street, the trusts
and corporations. If the people do
not repudiate the action OF this
congress, then indeed are we nearing
that stage of paralysis that foreshad-
ows nation of aristocrats on the one
hand and venal slaves on tho other.

that he was unnecessarily annoyed by
by requests for passes for representa-
tives, senators and even Judges of the
Supreme Court and their friends,
and, if he did not comply
the interests Of the company
were jeopardized by the introduction
of hostile bills by the parties refused.

WILL THE ECHO REFUND,

The Drayton Echo says, the reason
that 1t would not publish the call fol-
the republican convention without
pay, is because, the chairman Of the
committee, Mr.. LaMoure had "been
branded us traitor by the state com.
mittee. and they had charged the
party everywhere not to recognize
his authority or his republican claim
In any party caucus or convention -
The Echo further says. 1--WE shall rath.
er wait the action of the republican
state convention to support or re.
verse the decision of the state com.
comittcc."
Now that is all very good Mr.. Echo,
but in case the decision IS reversed
by the convention and Jud declared
and received as u good republican,
will you refund the money?
Again, Mr.. Echo. There are eight
other names Of county committee
Misunderstanding In themselves a large
majority Of the whole thirteen
signed to the call. Have these
names no force and authority with
the Echo? Suppose the Echo does
ignore the chairman what about the
majority Of the committec?. And 1t
won't do to say that the committee
are not republicans on account Of ad.
mitting Mr.. LaMoure to a place, be.
cause the Echo admits that matter IL
to be supported or reversed by the
state convention" Hence according
to the Echo itself, until this higher
tribunal decides, Mr.. LaMoure's posi-
tion is a matter Of individual opinion
