Less than q year ago the American
Railway union faced what was general
Iy conceded inevitable disruption.
Bitterly attacked by monopoly and
meanced by federal discrimination; its
power tested in a fashion almost with
out precedent, and its noble leader i'm
prisoned for daring to direct the we'll
fare of the thousands who looked to him
for wise dictation. Notwithstanding
these besetting circumstances, the or
der has grown. grown secretly and 50
rapidly that railroad magnates stand
awe-stricken at the news that no less
than lie, 900 men are under its jurisdic-
tion- While Eugene v. Debs has been
languishing in prison his spirit has
been lowering over the labor popula-
ton. and his fellow martyrs who were
less unfortunate than the illustrioua
prisoner have never ceased in their
quiet but vigorous agitation. Since
Aug. p, Director NJ. J. Elliott has or

LEGION CIRCULAR NO. s.

The election is over. We have
gained wherever we had state ticket
We have no cause for sorrow, except
the agony we feel for the oppressed
people. If they had energy and zeal
enough to organize they would not be
crushed. 1t is apparent to all that we
must organize. We have gained in
every locality where we have the Le-
gion at work. 1t Is too late to perfect
another plan. 1t took three years te
establish the Legion. 1t meets every
want of our party. BY organizing now
Legion in every township we can wir
in that locality. All 1t needs is unity
of action. When you organize send
cents to Rev. J. D. Botkin, Neodesha
Kansas, and get his book on plan OF
work. If this method Is followed we
can carry the election. We must act
speedily. 1t will be too late If we wait
until the national convention. We will
lose the long hours of the winter. We
can not afford to lose one minute. 1t
is folly to sit and growl and find fault.
1t is more than a crime to walt on the
so-called leaders of the party. Let the
people act. Let every ardent soul who
loves the cause of humanity and will
sacrifice time to organize send for
commission as scout or county recruit
ing officer. If you have no time for that
send for papers and organize at home,
and then appoint committee to plant
other Legions in all the surrounding
country. We send supplies free, but
want stamps to mail them.
II the people will not move the cause
will perish. We should not lay down
and let the enemy trampIe us under
foot. If each one of the six million
people eligible as members of the Le-
gion would join and pay 10 cents en-
trance fee and 10 cents annual dues
the campaign fund for 1896 would be
abundant.
If all who are able would send 81 for
certificate of membership, we can raise
fund that would furnish all the
speakers and literature free.
It is in our power to do this and il
is the patriotic duty of every one in
once. 1t will be suicide to neglect it
After every election we see how badl,
we need it, and yet We wait and do MOI
remedy matters.
The brave Coxey, the gallant Burket
the eloquent and manly Pettitt woulC
have won il every precinct had beer
organized in each state. appeal t,
every willing worker in our party; t,
every manly heart, to every tende
souled woman to help this work. ma,

sworn duty demands it. 1 wish I coult
sound the trumpet call that would rail-,

1t takes a circular every month t

lican, by parliamentary proceedings
that need not characterize, by various
methods of legislative jugglery, the
deliberate purpose of the American
people, irrespective of party, has been
thwarted, it has been defied, it has
been contumaciously trodden under

been the instruments and the imple-
ments, no matter what the impulse or
the motive or the intention may have
been, at some time the people will

coinage Of silver from the outset, and l
am free to say that, after having OBJ
served the operations of the act of 1878,

wisdom of that legislation and of the

reverence for gold. They have no

are measured. they know that money

and that it is merely the creation oil

ed and measured.
Mr.. President, money is the creation
of law, and the American people have
learned that lesson; and they are in
different to the assaults: they are in
different to the argument; they are in
different to the aspersions which ar,
cast upon them for demanding that tn,
law Of the United States shall place
the image and superscription of Caesa

barrassment, without hindrance, with

shall give them a measure of value
that will not make their belonging

HARMONY.

Already the democratic leaders are
pleading for harmony. Down in Ala
bama the gold-bugs and silverites of
the democracy are trying to agree to
disagree, and drop the discussion of the
money question entirely. All in order
to secure harmony.
Harmony with what?
Silver democrats, ask yourselves.
Harmony with what?
Harmony with Wall street and the
Rothschilds of Europe.
Harmony with British capitalism and
toryism.
Harmony with Tammany, Briceism
Gormanism and Groyerism.
Harmony with trusts, combines, syn
dicates and railroad pools.
Harmony with the plutocracy. the
aristocracy and organized capital.
Harmony with the Money Power that
is now beginning to dominate the whole
world
In the meantime the workingman
must keep his mouth shut and learn Ia
.be content with that station in life tc
which it has pleased God to call him. -

WIN Not b. Enforced.

No law in favor Of labor will ever be
enforced by republican or democratic
oficial. Such laws are enacted, not
because the rulers want them, but to
placate the few laboring people who are
brave enough to demand them and the
rulers fear to lose the votes of the
workers. They hate these laws and al
ways find excuses and decisions to make
them imperative. These laws are sop
thrown to catch gudgeons. Labor laws
will be enforced when laborers cease
voting monopoly tickets and elect men
who want such laws.-Coming Nation.

training FOR Pirate.

An item concerning Washing
ton, for the truth of which we
cannot vouch, although it contains
deal of good advice for certain
youngsters Of the present time,
has lately come to our notice. 1t
is to this intent:
Washington Irving, in his
youth, had a longing to go to sea
and be q pirate. He determined
to make the attempt, but wisely
decided to prepare himself for it
by preliminary experience. He
began by eating salt pork. That
made him sick. He then slept
for a night or so on hard boards.
That made him score. It was
enough. He had on more desire
to 90 away. Other boys who
want to capture men-of-war, or
who desire to go scouting and
scalp Indians, would do we'll to
initiate young Irving's example.

One of the best and most curious proofs
Of the supremacy of Shakespeare among
English writer's is to be found in the
length and depth of the shadow that has
been cast by his fame There is hardly a
writer in the century of his apparition but
has suffered from the brightness of that
neighborhood. The works of great Eliza
bethan and Jacobean dramatists were ran
sacked for 100 years to illustrate Shakes
peare's poorest jests before they were
edited for their proper merits. Beaumont
and Fletcher may thank their mighty con-
temporary, and him alone, that their
plays, for all the wit and romance that en-
liven them, have remained part Of the
scholars furniture. The greater British
public has it's shakespeare and will none
of them. The brave array of Caroline poets
Herriok and his company, long bore a
twofold burden of neglect. They we're not
Shakespeare. and they were not of his age
Only recently have they been securely re-
printed.
Backward the shadow lies deeper. Mar
love- Greene, Peele and the rest, as dram
atists and predecessors of Shakespeare
have had their full share Of attention, but
the whole mass of literature that went to
the making of Shakespeare, the output
: especially of the earlier half of Elizabeth 8
reign, has, with this exception, been
scarcely rephntedein modern days. So in
nocent and plenary has been the confidence
of his countrymen in Shakespeare thiev-

them all that was good in English liter

That is what they are there for
And they generally do. But when
they are sick they can't; and then we
get sick
The kidneys may get sick from over
work, worry. excess, high living, etc.
The reason SO many of our great men
die from Bright's disease is that SO many
overwork themselves.
Bright's disease is only one Of the many
diseases the root of which lies in the
kidneys.
Other folks suffer from diabetes, rheu-
matism, govt, gravel, sleeplessness, an
aemia, mel vousness, headache, neuralgia,
etc.
All these diseases would go if the
poison could be got out of your blood.
If the kidneys would only do their work.
If you would only take. DR.. Hobbs Spar

do their work.
1t is not your kidneys fault
You should be trying to help them.
You can do it by taking DR.. Hobbs
