WHEAT is worth 20 cent, less than a

chance to deliver on the Capitol steps

Tho bribery investigation.

Congressional Investigations rarely
accomplish the purpose for which they
are originated, for the reason that
they are Intentionally confused BY in.
structions to the committee to invest;-
gate a number of matters having no
proper connection with that purpose.
This was strikingly illustrated when
Senator Lodges resolution was under
consideration by the Senate. The reso.
luton embraced two specific matters
which had challenged public attention
by the substantial reports of them in
the newspapers-the attempted brib-
cry of two Senators and the alleged
contribution of $500,O0O to the Cleve-
land campaign fund by the sugar trust,
and the subsequent recompense to the
the shape of diplomatic and legislative
favors.
These matters furnished sufficient
work for the committee. They were
clear and distinct, and the committee,
by combining itself to ~ impartial and
thorough inquiry Of them, promptly
made, might have renewed some very
unpleasant suspicious; but the resolu-
tion was altered, to include a number
OF matters not contemplated by MI.
Lodge, and which can only serve to
confuse or obscure the original charges.
The addition to the resolution of in
structions, to inquire If the Sugar
Trust had contr. buted money
to other campa. gn funds was
a deliberate and contemplate
evas- on, a schoolboy trick embodied in
the expression, "You're another!!"
which manly boys are ashamed of. Not

any sugar trust contributions to the
campaign fund of any other but the

ing administration on tria. bafors the

eign or domestic policy. and there was,
therefore. no general anxiety to know
what extraordinary motive could have
been a. the bottom Of its colossal blum
ders, for it had not perpetrated any.
The present administration is the che

GOVERNMENT BONDS.

Farm and FIresids has this to say
about the issue Of bonds:
In his annual report, Secretary Car
Isle makes a proposition to increase
the interest bearing debt of the United
States. He asks Congress for permits
sion to issue 5000, OOO, 900 bonds, bear
ing three per cent. interest. There are
times when it is absolutely necessary
for the government to issue bonds to
raise money for immediate needs or to
strengthen it's credit. Such occasions
are extraordinary.
Our government has not found il
necessary to increase it's national debt
since the resumption of specie pay
ment. What is the emergency that
calls for it now? It is a prospective
emergency. There is an unavoidable
fear thatunder the proposed new tariff
and internal revenue laws the receipts
of the federal government will fall far
below it's necessary expenditures. In
such a case it would be very convent
ent for the secretary of the treasury to
to have the unquestioned authority to
issue enough to make up he deficiency.
But it is contrary to plain bu 4iness
sense to deliberately provide for such
a deficiency. 1t is ~fnanciering of the
very worst sort. The cost of running
the government would necessarily be
increased by the amount of interest
paid on the bonds issued. There is no
necessity for Congress to pass revenue
laws that will not yield sufficient reve-
nues to meet the expenses of the gov
eminent.
A proposition to increase the public
debt does not meet with very favorable
consideration by the people who are
taxed to pay the interest. Capitalists
favor such bond issues, because they
provide opportunity for safe Invest
nent. Let them invest in productive
enterprises that give employment to

A WORK o ALL.

Mr.. EDITOR:-In this great reform
movement there is a great and noble
work for each and every one who
wishes to make our land and country
prospects better. We have united in
a grand body which should be earnest
workers. We have been laboring now
for several years in behalf of the poor,
Woodworking classes; and although we
have accomplished much good, yet we
+ only on the edge of success. We
have pulled through many hard strug
giles, but have not yet given up our
hopes; and we must not give up until
we know we can do no more. But,
friends of reform, we must not be idle;
hard struggles must make US wiser,
better and stronger in this work. We
have found that our only way t make
the Farmers Alliance a success is by
hard, earnest tOiling and by being
united firmly together 80 that we may
have strength enough to accomplish
what we wish to reach.
When we become members of the
Farmers Alliance we then have a duty
to perform; a work to do in honor of
u brother t~oilers, to bring them into
a better condition and standing in this
world. Our duty is to help and cheer
the fallen brother or sister, assist the
distressed and needy and in every way
we can do something hat will gladden.
the hearts of u brethren and sisters.
Each member of the grand Order has
a responsibility resting upon him and
when he fails to do his duty he Is not a
true member, and when he will not at
tend the Alliance meetings he need not
expect to do much for the good Of him
self, brethren or country. We dO~nOt
know of an organization that became
divided but it soon became as the
built upon the sand-tossed into
fragments Why was it2 Simply be-
cause they did not firmly unite and
work earnes as they might have done.
Instead of working together, they were
found divided and their organization
soon became a desOlate ruin. Brethren,
don't let it be SO with the Farmers Al
lance. Make it a success. You can
