COrruptiOn in "IIigh' Places.

You know Judge Kicks is being in
vestigated as to certain transactions in
his court. The evidence produced is
nice. His s.enOgrapiier testified that
she received Sl53 but signed a voucher
for $500. Other such testimony was
also produced. Your Judge Kicks is
the high mogul who had worhingmen
arrested for quitting work for the rail
roads last year. He is down on AN
archy," you know. He is for law and
order. He sees the law only for the
corporations. Had some poor devil
been brought before him who had al
lowed a voucher for $500 when $153
was the amount he would soon be in
the jails that tie laborers have erected
so the rich will have some place to i'm
prison them. There is corruption in
nearly, if not all the courts, but you
know that they must stick togeth +.
All the courts that are ready with in
functions and other legal artillery in
favor of the corporations are this kind
of people. Corruption in high
places is the rule and not the exception
to-day. These things are never
brought out except when some of the
participants get to quarreling. Com

Answers.

The act of 1862 authorizing the issue
of $50 million of grcenbacks author
lied the issue of 800 million of bonds,
but they were not offered until May,
1863. The evidence is very plain that
they were issued to satisfy the bankers
in their greed for interest, but not to
secure money to carry on the war.
Silver coins are legal tender for any
amount except where stipulation to
the contrary exists in the contract.
The law permitting such contract, is
one of the browning acts of plutocratic
villainy.
Silver certificates are redeemable in
silver.
A demand for gold in payment of sill
YER certificates could not be inforced.
The late Issue of bonds are payable
in coin, but the treasury rulings will
make them as we'll rs the old bonds
practically payable In gold.-Ohicsgo

How 1t Would Work,

If the Government would start a
bank in your town the people would
deposit their money in it. 1t would
loan these deposits out and before
night the money would be back again
SO it would be from day to day. There
would be about the same amount of
money in the bank all the time, and
yet it would loan hundreds and per-
haps thousands every day. There
would be no limit to the loans because
the money would come right back to
the banks in tho shape of deposits. In
most instances the borrower would not
take the money from the bank, but
leave it there on deposit and check it
out. In such case the bank would
simply give him credit on it's books for
the amount of the loan. 1t wouli
take his note, say for 81, 900, and would
have his note and the money too.
This loaning of credit is q great snap
for individuals, and as Uncle Sam s
credit is great deal better than an
individuals could be, it would be q
better snap for him.-Missouri World.
Trades Unions and the Peoples Party.
1t does not require very close obser-
walton to note the fact that generally
speaking the two million votes cast
fer the Peoples party candidates at the
last election came from tho farmers

Public OWner-hip.

At the last Wisconsin Legislature,
SAYS dispatch, "a, 600 passes, valued
at $40, 900, was distributed among the
members and lobby by the railroads.
Do you think it was done in the inter-
est of the people? Don't you know it
was done to get special laws 10 benefit
the railroads? If the laws they wanted
were just, do YOU suppose they would
have to bride for them? And was it
not in spirit. if not in form, selling
laws to the highest bidGer?' Do you
think the nation spent any money to
bride the Legislature TO make laws in
the interest of the pOstof1ice? Did the
Ostmasters send great packages of
stamps to members for favors? CAM
you see that as long rs railroads are
private property, run to make all the
money that can be squeezed out of the
people to go into the pockets of a
few, that these few can afford to bride
and will bride? If the railroads were
public property don't YOU see that no
one or a few would be benefited by
any particular laws, but that all
would share the benefits OF in Jury !?
Don't YOU see further that public own
ership would thus save the business
the cost of this lobbying. and all free
passes, and all lawyers fees, and al
advertising, and all pom.ous ticket
offices out of depo S, and all the ex-
penses of travelling agents for pasSen
ger and freight, and ten thousand
smaller items, and that the tariff could
be reduced to the amount the roads
now have to levy to pay these items ?
If you, as a voter, will not see these
things that SO nearly concern your
pocketbook, do you not know that
those who profit at your blindness will
continue to do so? AS a voter. you
are to blame for this condition, be-
cause you refuse to demand 10y the
only means you can, your ballot, that
another system, under which these
| things could not exist, is established.
You must own the railroads, or they
| will own you.

mayor has, very properly, taken
this open method to explain the
sewer proposition and to meet the
numerous misrepresentation that
have been used against his admin

who voted for Mayor Paschal,
should turn out and listen to his
plain and unvarnished statements.
Let us see il all the fruitssof the
