The Pawnbrokers, Harvest.

Never in the history Of the present
generation were the pawnbrokers so
busy. The long looked for good times
and the promised relief seem to be as far
distant as they were six months ago.
Thousands of mills and factories remain
idle. The army of the unemployed
grows larger day by day. Those who are
at work feel the necessities forced upon
them by reduction Of wages. The food
consumed by the masses grows palmer
day by day; luxuries are denied; re-
trenchment in the home is the only
thought; the relief committees of the
great cities stand still in the face of the
increasing number demanding bread.
The tenant who was always prompt
with his rent is,becoming a delinquent.
The unpaid grocery bill, the milk bill
and the coal bill are demanding sterner
claims for payment, while the strug-
Cling masses are sinking deeper into
debt with the day not distant when they
must be denied further credit.
These are some Of the signs and SYM
bols which mark the closing year of
Grover Cleveland's second term-days
and months Of suffering which shall
stand in our history as the greatest de-
ception and fraud ever practiced by
political party upon the innocent people
who placed it in power. With all these
crying wants and visible signs Of the
terrible struggle through which the Ia
boring classes of this country are pass
ing, the administration remains defiant.
From the White House in Washington
but one edict goes out, and that to in
crease the untold suffering already de-
scribed. No word of sympathy in all
this year of suffering has passed from
the lips of the chief magistrate toward
the suffering or the struggling masses
Of the people. No message Of regret or
proposed relief has ever been sent to
congress as touching this deplorable con-
dition. One thing Grover Cleveland
demands, and that without regard to
the entailed suffering to be Produced
namely, the destruction of the indus
trial system Of the United States, which
for 80 years has been the bulwark of
our employment, Of our steady indus
trial growth.

Interstate Decision.
WASHINGTON, May e. In the case
of the Interstate commerce commission
versus Crimson, Justice Harlan deliv-
cred an opinion to the effect that the
interstate commerce commission had
the power through the courts to compel
the attendance and testimony of wit
nesses and the production of papers
and books upon matters into which it
was empowered by congress to investi-
gate, declaring that such proceedings
by the commission are Judicial in their
nature. The decision is of Importance,
