GU can inprison men but you can t
in rison ideas You can shoot down
a hungry man but can kill the ublic
sentiment and sympathy which his
condition arouses.
And what is the condition? When
winter comes the hungry must be fed
or shot. Already the hounds of war
are preparing for their part in the
drama. But MARK you. God has done
his par;. He has given us a country
rich in natural resources. He has sent
his sunshine and rain, and given us
abundant crops. In the face of his
goodness the few have appropriated
these gifts and seek now to protect
themselves behind the specious plea of
vested rights Human rights, the
noblest gift of God are ignored. The
millions are hungry. The few revel
in riches and plenty. The law of God
has been defed. Who will respect
the law of man, secured by corrup-
tion and bribery, and sustained by
un-Godly courts? We sound the warn
ing. Thou hast taken usury end in
crease and thou hast greedily gained
OF thy neighbors by extorti<a. and
hast forgotten me. saith the Lord
Behold, therefore, I have smitten
mine hand at the dishonest gain
which those hast made, and at thy
blood which has been In the midst of
thee. Ezekiel xxi: 12, 49, We are
not stirring up strife. We are stand
ing on the watch tower of liberty to
sound the cry of imminent danger.
The nen who would lull the people
to sleep while danger is near are
traitors TO the best interests of the
country. We would not provoke
bloodshed. We would prevent it.
But not by submission to robbery
and oppression. Hence we utter the
warning cry to the oppressor. You
may deceive the people for time but
not for all time. 1t is only matter
of time when they will turn upon you
and rend you. Again we say, beware!
Get back to the righteousness of God.

What Parties Have Done,

The republicans demonetized silver
in 1878; the democrats did the same
thing in 1898.
The republicans enacted laws TO Sc
cure a gold standard of values, the
democrats have done the same.
The republicans cres ted the national
banking system; the democrats sus-
tanned it.
The republicans enacted a tariff law
with very little prote ttlon to agricult-
ure, and high protection to manu-
factories; the democrats are trying to
enact law with less protection to
agriculture, and more prot ectlon to
trusts and combines
Under the republican party were
built uD gigantic monopolies, ccm-
bines and trusts; u.lder the demo-
cratic party these arc fostered and
strengthened
The republican parties deposited
public money that had been drawn
from the people through the avenues
of taxation with favorite banking in
stitutions without interest: the demo
Gratis did the same as long as there
was sny such money to deposit.
Republican rule made millions of
tramps; democratic rnle is making
millions more.
Come out from among them and
keep on the grass. United Labor.

SiI AM AND FRAUD.
Real Rca5c=s for all the Hubbub in the

Real Rca5c:s for all the Hubbub in the
Senate Tarin.
Especial Correspondence - Noncnmformst)
WASHINGTON, July 29.-The SEEM
ingly great tight which has been go
ing on in the de mocratic ranks in the
snate the last few days is the greatest
sham in all history, as the following
facts will show.
In the first place, things in Alabama
began 10 look desperate for the. pluto
Gratis, and news from all parts of the
south and west made very dark out
look for the permanent establishment
OF the gold standard. The Jews Of
Wall street and London were alarmed.
These men are not only the greatest
tinanciers, but in carrying out their
schemes they have become the greatest
politicians. The secrets of every court
and government of Europe and Amer
lea Is an open book to them. Some
thing had to be done to prevent the
money question from becoming a
straightout and single issue in Ameri-
can politics According by large dele
CATION of Jews were sent to Washing
ton. They did not bother senators or
representatives this time but went
straight to the white house. There
the desperateness of the situation was
discussed, remedy was proposed and
the inordinate vanity of the President
fed to safety. A plan was concocted
to make the tariff question a more
vital issue for the next three years
than it had ever been, and by it Grover
Cleveland was to be made the idol of
the American people and be elected
for third time. The President was
to make such demands in regard to the
tariff as would defeat the bill or give
him an excuse to veto it and then
stand before the people as the only
redeemer of pledges, the only true
tariff reformer, and fight the old Nc
Kinley bill fight over again with a
fierceness and vigor heretofore an
paralleIed.
Since the Jews have been here sew
eral articles have appeared in the plu-
tocratic papers advocating third
term for Cleveland. There was a very
strong one in this mornings Post.
This fight in the senate is sham
and fraud. Its only object is to di-
vert the attention of the American
people away from the money question.

Cavey took his Youngest son, boy of

he has started to England with the

NUMBER L..

and where the quantity of full legal
tender is not added to gold in great
quantities, or is excluded altogether,
there must be an issue of legal tender
paper.
What is the basis of gold and silverP
During the financial crisis in England
in ls47, when legal tender debt pay.
ing money was in urgent demand, no
one could borrow a five pound note on
$1,000 worth of silver because the ba-
sis of silver coin had been removed
by demonetization. Although its
intrinsic value was as much
as ever, it did not rep
resent any money function. In CAL
cutta, where only silver is a legal
tender, during money stringency in
1901 it was impossible to borrow q
dollar on gold, and merchants who
had hundreds of thousands of dollars
in gold coin, were obliged to allow
their notes to so to protest because
they could not borrow $40 in silver on
a bushel of gold.
The question is rot what kind is
the money" but What will it do? Is
it full legal tender basis and does 1t
repre- ent debt paying fuuction?"
Henry Cernwischi, an eminent
French writer on finance, saws:
Money is a value created 10y law, its
basis is legal and no. material. 1t ia
perhaps not easy to convince one that
the value of metallic money is created
by law; it is. however fact If you
suppose that gold and silver are not
money-are not legal tender-their
value is lost"

viii make any sugar this year.
One is at Medicine Lodge and
the other in this city. The lat
ter made over 10000 pounds
of sugar last season md claimed over
$1,000 bounty. The former made
less than 100000 pounds, owing TO a
failure of the cane crop. This year
both factories were conte plating an
unprecedented output, as the cane
crop is exceptionally good, but it is
being worked into sorghum and ship
ped out, the managers claiming that
the sugar duty does not enhance the
price of sugar sufficiently to make
sugar as profitable as sorghum.
The sugar industry which six wears
ago seemed 50 promising in Kansas
cannot be adjudged a success. Even
with the advantages of u bounty of
two cents a pound the six mills in op-
Grafton in the state in 1856 had been
reduced to two in 1893, and the ma
chinery had been shipped To Louisiana
