PUT YOURSELF IN HIS PLACE.

The natural effects Of an industrial
and economic system based upon sell
fishness and greed are seen in the
facts that are now coming to light at
Pullman. The testimony that is
being submitted t. the commission
recently appointed to investigate the
Pullman strike and the condition of
the Workingmen, is Of a most start
ling character. People generally
have confidence in Carol D. Wright
and believe that the commission Of
which he is chairman will make a
fair investigation and submit an inn
partial report. It will be a great
disappointment if it does not. Some
Of the testimony taken by the COM
mittee was given in the ADVOCATE
last week and still more of it will be
found in another column in this issue.
Not all of the facts, however, relative
to the treatment of workingmen at
Pullmsn's model city will get into
the report Of fthatinvestigstion. Here
is one that comes from Grand Haven,
Mich, under date of August 16:
A mechanic, having a wife and six chill
dren, was detained here several hours be-
tween the arrival OF the Chicago boat and
departure Of Che east. bound train. He was
q victim Of the Pullman labor trouble and
was on his way to the home Of relatives in
the interior Of the state, entirely out Of
money and in helpless and hopeless oon-
ditiOn. One Of the children was q cripple;
he had just buried two that had died with
typhoid fever, and two others had not re-
covered sufficiently TO be able TO walk.
They had TO be carried from the boat to
che train. he said he had not been eviCted
from the home by the Pullman Land COM
pAny, but il amounted TO the same thing.
Even while one Of the children was lying
dead and two others at the point of death,
the agent ordered them out Of the house.
When told Of the condition Of the children,
he OOoly informed them that "they had
more children than working people ought
to have, anyway"
The man fleeing with the remainder
of his family as best he could from
the scene Of such cruelty and brutal
ity, speaking Of the late strike, said {:
II is easy TO denounoe the striker if you
have home and all the comforts Of life,
for yourself and children, but il you had
worked faithfully for years in the shops
and then found yourself slowly but surely
running behind, starvation stealing upon
your family, some Of them seriously siok,
and you without money 10 buy medicine,
proper food, OF employ a nurse, and knew

The numerous accidents of recent
occurrence upon the railroads in
which the lives of travellers have been
sacrificed, are largely due to the dis
charge of old and experienced en-
ployes and the employment of green
hands in their places. Thus the
lives Of the people, as we'll as every
other public and private interest, are
to be inundated upon the altar of
corporate greed, and the public has
no remedy under our present system.
The people must re-possess the gov
eminent, and the government must
own and operate the railroads.

The LeavenWorth Weekly Times
of August % says: "Whst we have
said of political candidates and party
platforms in the past was true"
Now if the ADVOCATE cared to initiate
the campaign methods of the repub-
lican party we would reproduce what
the Times has said in the past of the
candidates it ls now supporting, but
fortunately we have better use for
our space.

asTILL WORRIED ABOUT IT."

list papers in Kansas that are still
worried about Major Morrill's feel
inRg toward silver" The Journal is
not well informed. It is a matter Of
perfect indifference to Kansas Pop
ulists what may be Major Morrill's
feelings toward silver. The attitude
of the republican party toward silver
is not a matter Of doubt. The party
leaders are totally opposed to the
use Of silver or any other material
except gold as money. They keep up
q hypoCritical pretense Of willingness
to have silver used as money in oEder
to hoodWink the people; but even in
this pretense they display the cloven
hoof. They hold to the absolute in
competency Of the United States
government to make a larger use Of
silver unless an international agree
ment Of the leading nations of the
Garth can be effected to make such
use Of it common. Even then they
are committed ID no ratio between
silver and gold; and the people well
understand that any departure from
the present established ratio is q total
abandonment Of all there is in the
silver question that can benefit any
body except the mOney-Ohsngers.
What says Dick Blue upon this
subjects He says the question of
ratio is a mere matter of detsil-thai
he fsvors the use Of silver as money,
leaving the question Of ratio to be
hereafter determined. To be deter,
mined how and by Whom7 Why, BY
international agreement, of course
or by the dictation Of Wall street pi
rates, which amounts to the same
thing.
Let it be understood, once for all
that the Populists, not of Kansas
alone, but of the entire country, are
utterly opposed to the use of silver
as money if such use is based upon
the condition that a gold dollars
worth Of silver bullion at it's market
price in Wall street, must go into
the silver dollar; and this is the doc
trine of the republican leaders TO-
day. This means that there shall
be a money of final and ultimate re-
demption and that this money shall
be composed Of gold alone Populists
everywhere are opposed to this doc
trine, and they propose to fight 1t
out on this line even if the demone-
tizstion of gold shall become neces-
ssry in order to be rid of the heresy.
If silver Is to be demonetlzed, or if
it's value is to be measured by the
single gold standard, then we make
the issue that gold also shall be de-.
monetized in order that Wall street
domination Of our national finances
and Of the peoples circulating
medium shall cease.
Populists favor the full restoration
of silver to the position it occupied IN
law prior to the act of 1873, because

a telephone message was re-
ceived in San Antonio from Kyle
last night, conveying the informa-
ton that Charles G. Tietze is
dead, having been murdered, by
being shot. 1t took place about 8
o'clock last night and is supposed
to have been the deed Of several
Mexicans.
Tietze was we'll known in San
Antonio, having been for years in
the employ Of George Dullnig, the
local wholesale grocer. He has a
brother residing at No. 3l5 Barerra
street, named Emil w. Tietze, who
is manager Of Dullnig's ranch. He
was in the city up to this morning,
engaged in experimenting several
improvements now being made in
Mr.. Dullnig's wholesale establish
ment, and on receiving the sad
news, left for Kyle.
The family originally hail from
New Braunfels, where number of
relatives now reside. Deceased has
been in Kyle about three years,
where he conducted grocery up
to the time of his death. The cause
of the murder is not known, but is
supposed to have been for money.
The details. thus far obtained are
very meagre. Tietze had a narrow
escape from being murdered about
a year ago, when number of Mex
leans assaulted him. His place of
business was also burned out a short
time ago, but he reopened imme-
diately after the destruction. He
leaves wife and two children in
fair circumstances.

The Political Cuckoo.

~ see," said one Of our literary
men to LIGHT reporter, "that.
there is question as to whether or
not Senator Morgan, who was the
firm "political cuckoo" in the pres,
ent Congress, was the first to use
that phrase. Your correspondent,
Sam Foster, cites an extract from
Robert Burns *POet's Dream" that.
shows that in 1856 the Scottish
bard expressed a similar idea. l.
cannot verify his quotation now, az.
published In the Light, but as,
Stunning that to be correct he makes
a good case in asserting that the
sentiment, if not actual expression,
is older than the Senator. But, to
understand the matter plainly, 1t
must be remembered that, the
cuckoo is an infamous bird, who,
instead Of making its own nest, APP
propriates that of some other bird.
For this reason in the days Of
Shakespeare the man who was
called "cuckold" and men in de-
rison cried "cuckoo to him. This
is evidenced by Shakespeare's
"Love's Labor Lost" which says:
The Cuckoo then on every tree
Mocks married men. for thus sings he
Cuckoo
'Cuckoo!" 'Cuckoo!' Oh! word Of fear,
Emphasizing to a married mans ear"
