GOOD OLD PARTY TIMES.
A PLANT OF POVERTY.

In these days when the bogy Of
"overproduction" is being held up to
frighten the producers in their cam
paign for an honest system of money
legislation, incidents like the follow
ing have more than ordinary point.
These two facts are from a daily pa.
per published in Chicago, and they
can be paralleled by experiences that
have come under our own personal OBJ
servation. The first one might be
amusing did it not tell tale of pow
erty-too sad to be passed over lightly:
"a laborer, Hugo Renner, went home
to his furnished lodging the other
evening. bringing with him black
poodle dog. Renner was without work
and money, and hunger had made him
steal the dog. He slaughtered it and
he and his landlady made feast Of it.
The other day Renner was sentenced
to four months in jail for the theft of
the dog" The second is more har-
rowing. The account says: '"The
other day man was rested for beg
ging. He had the corpse of two
year old child in his arms and begged
.money.~to bury the little one. The
police ascertained that this man, la :
borer named Fengler, who had been
injured at work and was without oc-
cupation, had seven children at home
starving; that the little one had actu-
ally died Of hunger. and that he him.
self had touched no food for 48
hours"
Such are the details of the extremi-
ties to which starvation reduces the
unfortunate in this day Of low prices
and ''overproduction." While the
number who reach actual sta arvation
is not large, there are thousands upon
thousands on the verge. They lack
food, clothing and the commOnest ne
cessities of life. Our cities are full
of them. Hard grinding poverty
keeps them in the poor-houses, in
crowded quarters OF the city where
the bad air and all uncleanness pol
lutte the moral and physical health.
Thousands OF children never have a
chance to grow up good cititiZens.
They are doomed from birtn to a life
OF criminality and disease, owing
partly to the vices OF their parents,
but more directly to their poverty.
Meanwhile the accumulation of
wealth in the hands Of the few is
each year more apparent. The great
evil, as it seems to us, is not overpr0-
duction. but under distribution.

message is admirable and to the
point. There has been too much cow

accomplishing what we have by de-

gold and should be none other. These
greenbacks which you have so wisely
decided to kill are only good to be
used among the common herd in this
country, and the less money they have
the less trouble they will make. The
old adage, "Put the beggar on horse
back and he will ride to the devil" is
true, and so far as am concerned the
bankers and the banking syndicate of
which we form part propose that
these beggars shall 90 afoot and re-

ANARCHY.

(St Louis Evening JOurnal.)
''Those rascally bankers" Let's
wipe 'em off the face of the earth.
Say, brother Populist, 'spose we wipe
off the rascally borrowers of money
first? How does that strike you?
Never saw it that way before? Do
you know what makes a thief? It's
fool. Thieves are educators, not fools.
They come high, but we must have
them. It's the fools we don't need
and must get rid of.
You have struggled with subtreas-
ury schemes, free silver. Government
loans, non-interest bearing bonds, di-
rect legislation, ETC., etc., only to find
that interest and rent are eating out
the life of honest industry. And you
propose to legislate these things out
of existence. You are going to do by
law what the fools Of 5000 years have
failed doing. Yesterday you saw the
Prohibitionists try to legislate the
thirst out Of drunkards' throats, and
to-day you are going to legislate greed
out Of the human heart God let us
have wisdom. Even little would be
death to folly.
Volume means price. High prices
would let us out of debt today, and
Greed would send in again tomorrow.
Will you never see that debt is the
devil? Then keep your eyes on it. We
90 into debt, Individually and collec-
lively, for ''profit," then turn round
and collect it from widows, orphans
and fools, with something added.
Prices will always absorb volume.
What would money-lender, or land
lender care for a .'gold basis" If there
were no debts? There are two sides
to debt. Borrower and lender. The
borrower is the first to act. He's the
fool. The others the thief. Watch
the fool. He's the man we want to
eliminated! Thieves are honest when
there are no fools. Oh, Government
loans. On whato Your note, my
note? Yours is good, mine isn't.
You pay both. Oh, see, you mean
that the Government shall loan mon
ey on land. Whose land: Gods? God
isn't borrowing money. He gives
everything freely. Will give us sense
il we ask for it. Will give US wealth,
too. with sense. Loan money on land
and you aggravate the worst form of
usury-rent. Say, when are you Pops
going to stop borrowing and
lending? You must have been
papped on borrowed milk. As mere
volume won't obliterate debt, you
have no alternative but loans, and
you can lend money on any plan you
like, you will only be where you are
now.
Are you making all this fuss for
little temporary respite? Going to
shirk the job, and cowardly leave it
to our children to settle? Look. now,
suppose we go to Nature for wealth.
No, she's not all bought up and mon

1t is curious fact that very few
marriages OF this kind occurred pre-
vious to twenty-five years ago. This
fact may be variously accounted for.
There were less large fortunes in this
country before than since the war;
there were less facilities for associa-
tion among the people Of opposite
sides Of the ocean, and, may De, the
women of the earlier period were more
patriotic than those Of the present
day. It is possible that there were
more marriges for love and fewer for
mercenary conditions then than now,
which would also be factor in any
statistical record of the subject. One
thing is certain. that the marriages
between American women and Euro
pean men during the earlier period of
the century were without the financial
consideration which is now as con-
spicuous feature as it is in buying a
house or a parrot. 1t may be added
that there is only one well-known
American who has married Euro
pean woman of noble family.

The stealing of the congressional
election in 1894 by the Democrats did
not dampen our ardor in the least.
The theft of the elections in 1894 by
the Democrats of Richmond and Han-
cock counties only stimulated us to
the Importance Of the fight we were
making.
The frauds committed in this cleo

in other counties demand that we con-
test this election before committee
of Congress in the interest of ballot
reform at the South.
The fight the Populists are making
for "free ballot and fair count" in

of vital Importance to every districtin
