to make four entries for d subscriber

four times as much as if the sub

THR WAR IS OVER.

We assert our purposes to be
Identical with the purposes of the
national constitution-''To form a
more perfect union, esta blish justice,
insur domestic tranquility, provide
for the common defense, promote
the general welfare and secure the
blessings of liberty for ourselves
and our posterity." We declare that
this republic can only endure as a
free government while built upon
the love of the whole people for
each other and for the nation: that
it cannot be pinned together by bay
onets; that the civil war is over, and
that every passion and resentmen

World-our annual agricultural pro-
auctions amount to billions OF dol

consumed in their production; the
existing currency supply is wholly
inadequate to make this exchange:
| the results are falling prices, the
formation of combines and rings
and the impoverishment of the pro-
ducing classes. We pledge ourselves
that II given power we will labor to
correct these evils by wise and reas-
enable legislation in accordance
with the terms OF our platform.
We believe that the power of gov
ernment-in other words, of the peo-
ple-should be expanded Gas in the

JOLIET, Sept. 1S.-We are now

weed is, of course. the order of the

cured in this vicinity.

them.

was in North Carolina he would
stump the State against the move
ment. The Generals son-in-law was
in Washington recently and said to
correspondent of the Raleigh News
& Observer:
.'Mr. Weaver believes the Republic
can party is the great enemy of the
people, and he has devoted his energy
and talent for the past 16 years to
the determination of that party. He
fights it as the common enemy of
mankind, and urges the people to
stand together, regardless of party
names, against the common foe.
''In his speeches the General pays
his respects to the charge that the
Democrats are responsible for the
hard times. Republicans wink be-
meath his stinging rebukes and mer
CHESS sarcasm. He declares that in
making this charge the Republican
party is like the thief who swore his
crime on AN innocent Third party,
| and then claimed the reward offered
| tor the apprehension of the criminal.
The Republican party, he declares is
directly responsible for every exist
ing law against which the people
complain, and for every law on the
A.! statute books when the hard times
| came. Any man, who states that
the emocratic party is responsible
| for the panic is either knave or a
| fool, or both.
1.-THE true cause, the only cause of
the hard times, Mr.. Weaver declares,
is vicious Republican legislation.
| He declares that Immediately alter
the war the money power took
charge of the Republican party and
through it took charge of the people
and their business, public and private
This party has supplanted black
slavery in the cotton fields of the
South ny white slavery in the cotton
and corn fields and workshops of the
entire country. 1t is wicked Repub-
lican legislation on the many ques
tions, on the land question, and the
tariff question, and the railroad
question, that brought the hard
times. The charge by Republicans
that the cause is elsewhere is an
insult to the intelligence of the
American people. The Republican
| party cannot escape this great re-
sponsibility. Every hungry mouth
today condemns this party; every
homeless man is or should be its
enemy; the people, Gods people,
against whom this party has wicked
| ly legislated, and from whom it has
taken their inalienable and God
| given rights, propose now to have
an accounting"

LOWER PRICES.

The perpetuation of the Demo-
cratic administration means lower
prices upon the necessities of life.
The present tariff, which is but a
foretaste of what the Democrats
would have done but for the trust
bound Senators, clearly illustrates
this fact and forms striking con-
trast between the policies of the two
parties. The difference in the prices
of commodities will prove a strong
argument with the people, who have
to do the paying, in favor of the
Democratic policy and they will be
able to see that the Republican pet
theory of protection, for which the
people have paid SO dearly, means
bounty to the rich owners of the pro-
tected interests.
To illustrate the difference between
the Mckinley and. the present tariff.
by figures, we quote from the speech
of Hon. F. A. Woodland, of North
Carolina, delivered in Congress on
the 18th of August, in which he made
comparisons between the two laws.
Mr. Woodland said:
'Before the passage of this act you
would have had to pay on 81 900
worth of plows, shovels, hoes, cult
vators, gins, etc., $3.50, and under
this bill tariff duty has been removed
from these articles and you are
saved $3.50.
"On the 5000 worth of wooden
shawls, on which, under the McKin-
ley law, you would have paid $500,
you now pay $40, saving upon this
item alone $3.50.
"On the $500 worth of blankets
you would have paid $40; under
the Democratic law you pay sos,
saving $135.
son the 500 worth of wool hats
You would have paid $50; under the
present lawyou pay $35, saving $57.
ssOn the $500 worth Of cotton
cloth you would have paid $1O5;
under the present law you pay SIS,
saving $50.
s'On the $500 worth of bagging
you would have paid $97 so; under
the present law bagging is put on the
free list and you do not pay any
duty on the bagging purchased.
ION the 5000 worth of cotton ties
you would have paid $206; under
the present law ties are put on che
free list. So you pay no duty and
save $206."

How do the farmers like the idea
of paying all the expenses of the
Government by tax on real estate !?
TLis is what the Populists propose.
Moreover, they have introduced
measures in Congress that would re-

five dollars worth of real estate.
