heard a Republican say that any
person who is industrious and eco
nomical can have home of his own
by the time he is 25 years old {; that
if he doesn't get it, it's his own
fault. l wonder how many people
there are in Anderson county, over
IS or 40 years of age, who have no
homes of their own. Alas ! how
many millions are homeless in this
model republic.
Jep Porter has been unable to do

The Garrett Journal says it is
amusing to see Republicans fall out
and quarrel and scrap, and then qui-
ct down and vote a straight Repub-
lican ticket, as they did last fall.
Consistency, thou art Democrat.
When the Peoples party was ogan-
lied in Kansas, three-fourths of the
Democrats joined the party, but
when Cleveland was elected, they
did not know where they were at.

THOSE FAIR FACTORY GIRLS.
Mrs. Cougar Makes suggestion
to Jerry Simpson.
Morning journal, Lafayette, Ind.

Mrs. j. Ellen Foster Is presluehI
of the Women s Republican league
of the United States. She was at
one time the most popular speaker
in the Prohibition ranks, but she
fell from grace and joined the Re-
publican party in order to secure an
Office of Mr.. Harrison for a husband
who had only business sense enough
to carry her travelling bag. Mrs.
Foster in not exceedingly popular,
even with the Republicans, as was
shown in the recent Iowa campaign,
for they would not allow her to
speak for the party in that state.
Being anxious to maintain sort
of a hold upon the public, she has
recently attracted attention by tax
ing a company of factory girls from
Massachusetts to Washington, and
asked to appear with these before
the senate committee to protest
against the adoption of the Wilson
bill.
She was refused, by. SenatorVoor-
bees, a hearing. Mrs. Cougar is
never to be outwitted in political
action when she sees her sex's inter-
ests are at stake. When she noted
Mrs. Fosters movement the fol-
lowing correspondence took place
WROTE TO JERRY.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, March, %, 1894
Hon. Jerry Simpson, NJ. c., Washington, d. G.
DEAR SIR see that Mrs. Foster
is to display a company of factory
girls before the senate committee as
living evidence of the beauties OF
the high protective p tariff to these
work women. Solomon in all his
glory was never arrayed as will be
these factory and shop girls upon
the occasion of this visit. She will
doubtless forget to state that the
highest average wages these girls
receive, taking the United States
over, is less than Sc. per week,
while their protected" masters re-
alize their millions from the labor of
these same girls.
Don't you think that, as an offset,
had better get representatives from
the farmers and miners wives and
march on to Washington just ahead
of Coxey's army to show the real
benefit Of protection"
would suggest that you meet us
at the gates of the capitol with the
old coat for flag which you so elo-
quently displayed when you made
the recent speech on tariff.
Cordially yours for protection of
the masses as well as the classes.
HELEN M. COUGAR.

son replies as follows:

Nothing in This World

Is SO cheap as q newspaper, vhether De
measured by the cost Of its production or by its
value to the consumer. We are talking about
an American, metropolitan, daily paper Of the
first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. It's so
cheap and so good you can't afford in this day
of LrogreSs to be Without it. There are other
papers possibly as good, but none better, and
none just like it. 1t prints all the real news Of
the world- the neys you care tor-euery day,
and prints it in the shortest possible space You
can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do days
work too 1t is an Independent paper and gives
all political news free from the faint of party
bias In word-it's q complete, condensed,
clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the
largest morning circulation IN Chicago or The
west-125. 900 TO 40, 900 q day.
Prof. J. Z. Hatfield Of the Northwestern
University says: "THE CHICAGO RECORD

nal as we are for some time likely to find
on these mortal shores"

The Kansas Worlds Fair board
+ III e M A s 3 E s

The Kansas Worlds Fair board
is considering plans for using a
$1,000 surplus for the purpose of is
suing extra reports to advertise the
state. Kansa has been getting a
whole lot of derogatory advertising
in the past few years, and it is time
that something is done in the other
direction Lawrence World.
A terrible fact, Brother Brady.
For few years Kansas has received
a great deal of derogatory advertis-
ing, and that, too, at the hands of
those who masqueraded as the
"stand up for Kansas" 10 Hudson
and his little lieutenants used their
papers through which to defame the
state. The Republican "Age-of-
consent" senate did it's share. The
partisan farce impeachment trial OF
the Brutal Botkin lined up with
the defamers, and the Douglas-Hock-
Hughes Wilkerson-W Welsh rebellion
added to the defamation; and these
same parties are daily adding to
their long list of crimes by their
fiendish assaults upon the present
state administration for its exposure
of Republican peculation and vii
lainy. All the derogatory advertis-
ing, Bro. Brady, has been done by
Republican stalwarts.

Rev. A. o. PENNIMAN preached
the soldiers memorial sermon in
Lone Elm. 1t is claimed to be the
best ever preached on that occasion
in the Presbyterian church. Mr..
Penniman taught, most emphatical-
Iy, the doctrine of no more war,
and, in speaking of the great con-
f1ict now on between labor and CAPT
tai, declared that his sympathies
were with labor. He claimed that
the work begun by the Union sol
diers is still going on, and that,
eventually, the condition of the
American people will be much bet
ter than now. His appeal to the
old soldiers to fight the battle of
good against evil was stirring and
impressive. He gave the A. P. A.
a scoring, aud said he expects to
meet Catholics in Heaven. 1t was
a grand sermon, and we can truly
say to all ministers that such SER
mons will win the masses.

TWO SOLDIERS AT GETTYSBURG.

TWO SOLDIERS AT GETTYSBURG.
The armies, they had ceased to fight.
The night was still and dark,
And many thousands on the field
Were lying stiff and stark.
The stretcher men had come along,
And gathered all they could;
A hundred surgeons worked that night
Behind the clump of wood.
They flashed the lanterns in my face
AS they were hurrying by;
The sergeant looked and said, "He's dead,
And made no reply.
The bullet had gone through my breast
No wonder was still
But once would be nearer death
Than when upon that hill
A gray-clad picket came along
Upon his midnight beat.
He came so near me that tried
TO move and touch his feet.
AT once he bent and felt my breath,
Where life still fought at bay;
No one who loved me could have done
More than this man in gray.
O'er me all chilled with blood and dew,
His blanket soft he spread;
A crimson sheaf of wheat he brought,
A pillow for my head.
Then knelt beside me for an hour
And bathed my lips and brow;
But for the man who was my foe
I'd not be living now.
Then as the coming daylight shone
He bent his lips to say
"God spare you, brother, though you wear
The blue, and the gray!"
The sounds of war are silent now;
We call no man our foe;
But soldiers hearts cannot forget
The scenes of long ago.
Dear are those who stood with us,
To struggle or to die;
No one can oftener breathe their names
Or love them more than l.
But from my life I'd give year
That gray-clad man to see;
To clasp in love the foeman's hand
Who saved my life for me.

"GEN'L, it begins to look to me
as eff this was a rich mans war and
a po' mans fight"
Such was the observatian OF
private soldier in the rebel army to
his general officer, after four years
of marching, fighting and counter
marching, in which the officers Sc
cured big pay, and the enlisted men
secured but little else than kicks,
cuffs and curses. With but little
change, the observation OF the rebel
soldier regarding the rebellica can
be applied to the present method OF
administering the laws of the United
States" Gen'l, it begins to look
to me as eff this was rich mans
government, sustained by the labor
of the poor for the benefit OF the
rich.
