CONSPIRACY.
Its Definition Depends upon Who IL 4
that "COnspires."

Its Definition Depends upon Who IL 10
that "Conspires."
In all the contests between employee and
employer, similar to the one now going
on, il is noticeable that it is the employers
that appeal to the courts and ask for mill
tary aid. Another noticeable circumstance
is, that they generally get all they ask for
in this direction. Is this because they are
always right and the workmen are always
wrongf 1t is generally conceded that the
laborers have right to organize, but what
forY 1t is also conceded that they have a
right to quit work when they feel so dis
posed.
1t is denied by many that w0rkingmen
have any kind of right to prevent in any
way other people from taking their places.
Yet in doing this they are only doing what
is praoticed by some corporations, nota-
bly, the Pullman corporation. There are
also railroad companies that are successful
in almost every instance by conspiring
together in preventing certain discharged
employees from securing work from any
other company. They do not use force
to attain this end, but they accomplish it
nevertheless.
There are many former railroad en-
ployes who testify that they have been
forced to engage in other business because,
after being discharged, they found that
wherever they applied for work under
another company they we're blacklisted.
They are asked where they have worked,
and, on giving the information, the tele-
graph is brought into play, and they are
soon informed that their services are not
needed. Yet they do not invoke the aid
of the courts or of the federal authorities,
knowing well that no attention would
be paid them if they did.-Topeha State

NEW YORK .LEDGER" ON THE POP
ULIsT PLATFORM.

Declares against Usury and Favors Gov
eminent Loan aud Aid Associations,
and Government Banks-Hope for the
People-An Honest Paper.
Robert Bonner's paper, the New York
Ledger, feels forced to take stand against
the usury of the Shylocks. If the Ledger
keeps right on, it will prove of great
service to the peoples party, for more
than million people read it every week.
1t says:
"For many years one of the crying
evils of large cities has been the extor-
tions of money lenders. Whoever has
gotten into temporary emergency and
found il necessary to realize on some
thing has learned to his sorrow that the
tender mercies of the Shylocks are cruel
indeed. Every one is liable to experience
temporary embarrassment, and under the
old regime this meant the most merciless
greed on one side, and the payment of a
rate of usury that amounted to little
short of robbery on the other.
"Of late our cities have been overrun
with money lenders who advanced certain
sums, more or less, on furniture and per-
sonal property. Most of the borrowers
were people whose social or other oondi-
ton was such that they were willing to
endure almost anything rather than make
their distress public. On this well-under-
stood fact the lenders operated, and eI-
torted their full pound Of flesh without
discount or delay.
"A very large number of these transac-
tions would scarcely bear the light of day,
but the parties most concerned have in
almost all cases refused to enter any com
plant, and the perpetrators of these out
RACES have gone on growing more bold
and insolent with every success.
"The government pawnbroker has long
been Paris institution, and the state has
derived no little benefit from this way of
conducting business. -.
"Some day let us hope that there will
be a government loan and building asso-
citation, where extortion will be impossi-
BILE, and where bubbles and quirks and
technioalities, by which hard working
people are done out of their possessions,
will be unknown. II these things pay pri-
vate individuals, they certainly would pay
the government, and these, with the saw
ings banks and various industries turned
into government hands, would put the
masses of the people in a much better
condition, would afford reliable employ
ment and investments that, even though
they we're smaller in aggregate profit,
would be absolutely safe, and would take
away from those who have but little be-
tween them and need the continual worry
which the management Of the average
savings bank has made inevitable. When

standard, and, what was worse, did it with

standard, and, what was worse, did it with
the foreign air of conspiracy.
We cannot afford to repeat that error.
The time has come for decision, and the
decision must be open. You can act with
confidence that your judgment is t least
as good as that of any other man. Neither
the banking interest nor any other has for
the time right to claim superior knowl-
edge or wisdom. In view of the ruin they
have wrought and the vaster ruin which
they threaten, no risk that in their opin-
ion you may seem to run can cause a mo-
ments fear.
THE SOURCE OF REPUBLICAN POWER.
Even those who oppose the return of the
republican party to its old principles will
admit that those principles would give 1t
power for another generation. We need
only to be true to ourselves; we need only
SO to assist and maintain our own oonvic-
tions, and no other party, born or unborn,
can take the field from us as long as we
choose to hold it. No other party can
represent, as we do, the whole national
instinct II all our industries, all our popu-
lar energies, all our conservative caution.
As long as the republican party holds to
ltb uuby VI EoPtoooheAhS oho WhoAo AooAOAt
it must hold sway, unless something
stronger than the nation arises.
The task before us is to restore normal
activity to industry, to break down the
barriers of sectionalism, to check the in
creasing tension between the rich and the
poor, to relieve agriculture, to save the
small farmer and manufacturer-in word,
to smooth away the threatening dangers
of discomfort. The republican party alone
has power to do this, and to carry on our
society for at least another generation
without further disaster you have only to
adopt a platform of four words, and to
take your stand on it firmly, courageously,
with honest determination to be true to it.
The party has always maintained the ma
tional principle of high tariff. You whose
deepest and best interests depend upon its
success have alone the power to add Stree
silver" Very truly yours,

California, Mo-, voted by very large
majority in favor of the city establishing
its own electric plant. This is move in
the right direction. No city ought to
confer its valuable franchises for water,
light, power, street cars, and so forth, upon
private corporations. Every city is
business corporation that ought to pro-
vide for the accommodation of its own
citizens at the least possible cost, and not
turn them over to the tender mercies OF
corporations, which have no object but
private gain. If the workingmen and
honest taxpayers of our cities would study
these questions, they would soon discover
a ready means by which they could pro-
tect themselves from some of the most
oppressive monopolies. California sersS
good example for other cities to follow,
not only in Missouri, but throughout the
country.-Missouii World.

I'm to their Old Tricks.

The news from Oregon has at last come
in by freight. and the counting is still go
ing on. The republicans have the election
machinery, and if the count is not correct,
it is their fault. The Portland Leader
contains columns relating instances OF
frauds at the ballot box, repeating and
stuffing, and all manner of ohicanery
usually praoticed by politicians of the old
parties. II relates one instance where
the count shows more republican votes cast
than there are inhabitants-men, women,
and children-in the precinct. The repub-
licans of Oregon followed the example set
by the Virginia democrats last fall; set
the figures for the majority the day OF
election, and then counted to them. Our
boys are as badly organized as they we're
in this state when Willis was counted out,
in 1891.-Erchdnge.

The prosperity that was promised when
the Sherman bill was repealed is lost or
gone fishing. We read every day in the
daily papers that the gold is going to Eu-
rope, but when the silver bill was up for
discussion, the departure of gold was laid
to the odious Sherman cowardly make
shift, so.called, and that the longer 1t re-
NAMED Law the worse of the country
was getting. The law is repealed, gold is
still agoing, and times are not improving
not to any appreciable extent. The
papers lied and are still lying, and that .
what they are paid to do-as well as to
fool the fools.-Americdn Enterprise.

In Luxury.

Nine children born into the world to-day
have to be producers to keep the tenth
child in luxury, because the parents of the
nine are too ignorant to read anything
except what the parents of the one tell
them is all right. Kings, mobiles and ty-
rants, in all ages, in all countries, and in
all chimes, have been supported by tho
same ignorance for the same cause

A leading foreign banker says, accord
ing to the Boston Bureau, that there is a
disposition to belittle the Importance OF
the international interest account. His
records, extending over a series of years,
show that fully $l1O,OOO0O0 is sent
abroad each year on foreign holdings OF
American securities. To this should be
added from $50,O00,O00 to $60,O00,OO0
expended by American travellers abroad,
or by the American colonists in European
cities. "There is also an item of S40,-
900, 5000 or $5O.0O0,000 for freights; so
that over $2OO. 100000 have been RENTED
