Who Kicks About patprnal sm ?

Application has been made through
the office Of the collector of internal
revenue for the establishment of q
general bonded warehouse in Chicago
by the Sibley Warehouse company.
This is the first application for such an
establishment, provision for which was
made in the Wilson bill. There have been
for years special bonded warehouses
for the storage of spirits msnufact.
ured from fruits. The extension of the
law to spirits manufactured from grain
will be of great benefit to the whole.
sale and retail liquor dealers. Hereto
fore, when the liquor dealers purchased
liquors in bond, they were compelled
to leave them in the bonded warehouse
attached to the distillery until such
time as they paid the tax. Under the
new regulations the liquor can he
shipped in bond to the general SSwsre-
house until needed. The tax can then
be paid in the home Office and the
dealer avoid much trouble. When his
liquor is in the general warehouse he
has the satisfaction of knowing that
the goods cannot be changed on him,
and the warehouse receipts will have a
local commercial value similar to that
of a grain receipt. The Sibley Ware
house company at Chicago, is a new
corporation about organized, which
will succeed Hiram W. Sibley & Co.
James B. Wilbur is the president and
A. S. Warner the secretary of the new
corporation.-Wine and Spirit Gazette,

If all men gave a just equivalent for
what they receive, and all men re-
ceived a just equivalent for what they
produced by their own effort, there
would be few rich and very few poor;
and the great extremes that exist to-
day and the dangers that confront us,
could not be possible.
Our money system is not the only
evil we are suffering from, but it is the
parent of a great many evils and much
misery. If the poor, who wrest from
natures storehouse the larger share of
our cOuntry's wealth, happen to lift up
their voice against the injustice, OPP
preston and tyranny of the oVerbear-
ing and wealthy, many of our inauen-
tial newspapers will denounce and
brand them as anarchists and every
capitalistic tool, cuckoO-like, repeats it.,
If honest, honorable, intellectual men,
assume the right to defend and adVo
cate the cause of the working people,
and to expose the errors and evils that
afflict us, and to condemn system that
is so plainly seen to be pregnant with
disaster, and revolutionary in its ten
dency, they are ridiculed, vili6ed, mis-
represented and stigmatized by the
liberal use of the choicest billingsgate
slang.
If leading newspapers do sometimes
try to appear broad and generous by
admitting for publication in their col.
umns, articles written in the interest
of the wealth producing classes, yet,
they are often garbled in such man.
ner as to make them appear ridiculous,
otherwise the thoughts that are in.
tended to be conveyed are stripped of
their force.
Perhaps we ought to exercise greater
charity toward editors and newspaper
managers. Necessity or circumstances
often force people into intellectual
prostitution and other evils and ex-
cesses repulsiVe to human nature.

City Star and rejected as not suitable for its

KANSAS CITY STAR:-In your issue
Of the End inst. we noticed an editorial
commenting upon the address formu,
lated by the National Populist COM
mittee at their meeting in st. Louis on
the 29th and 29th of December, 1894.
You say, in reference to the free coin
age Of gold and silver, "the dearer
metal would disappear from the money
system and be bought and sold as a
commodity at its world wide value"
Doubtless this is true; but let the civil
lized world cut off the monetary privi-
lege of gold and give the entire mon
OpOly to silver, and the result would be
silver would soon become the dearer
metal.
If the public mind and taste could
be so educated and trained as to totally
discard the use of corn as an article of
food, wheat would naturally be in
greater demand, and consequently
would rise in price. Comparisons
might be multiplied, but as the people
are becoming more independent in
their thinking, it is not likely they will
much longer continue to swallow the
sop, the sophism, the miSrepresenta-
tions and such glaring, disgusting, in
sulting abSurdities served out to the
reading public by many of our leading
newspaper (serving) caterers, who
think it will be swallowed without
question or examination. We admire
men who are governed by the princi.
Piles of honor, honesty, truth and JUS
tice; but an intellectual hypocrite we
despise.
The wishes and the sentiments of the
capitalist and rich corporations are
readily received and find very generous
attention with liberal space for express
sion and favorable comments by a
large majority of our influential daily
newspapers, while the popular senti.
ment of the masses is cast aside, ridi
culed or entirely ignored without so
much as even giving thought to what
they justly merit, or are virtually en-
titled to.
The Star seems to think the restora-
tion of free coinage of silver would re-
suit in a deplorable condition of the
people and country, and says: "What
is there in such change but disaster
to the farmer, and the merchant. and
the laborer, and the manufacturer; to
every man, except him who is engulfed
in debt and desires everyone else to be
plunged into it with him amid the gen
eral collapse Of the business Of the
countryP"

farmer, the merchant, the manufsc-
turer, the laborer and the country dur
ing the last two years with our single

time in the history of these United
States that there was such general
stagnation in every branch of industry,
such depression in business, so many

feel justly proud and boastful of their
wealth, their intelligence and their sys
tenn of management which results in
such deplorable, mountaineering and
humiliating condition of the people,
when there is no natural cause for it
Will the continuance of system, that
has caused so much misery, that is
forcing back the hand on the dial plate
of progress, remedy the disastrous evils
it has given birth toP
If our artificial laws conflict with
natural laws, the inharmonious jar and
friction will uaaVoidsbly cause trouble,
suffering and disaster, and the more
we deviate, the wider the breach the
more prolific of evil. The greater the
extremes the more calamitous, far
reaching, sweeping and terrible will be
the disaster. The Populists do not
claim to be perfect. They are human,
but should they be ridiculed Ior giving
some thought and making an effort for
the betterment of our people, for the
protection of man in his natural rights
and for greater security to life and
property, and also for more just,
fair and equitable distribution of the
indispensable necessaries of life2
The object and purpose of the Peo-
ple's party, is the accomplishment of
the above. And in these principles we
shall continue to educate the masses,
through avenues that are broad enough
and righteous enough to admit our
teachings. Brave, independent men,
with pure motive, noble mind, and who
are courageously combating the evils
that like nightmare depreSs u3-
are like bright stars that appear in q
dark, cloudy sky to the storm-driven
mariner on dangerous seattle only
hope of the peoples salvation. Gold
and silver should naturally add to the
pleasures of the people, bu1 the ave-
nue5 that have been created (by artifi-
cial laws) and through which they are
forced to flow by the most cOntempti-
BILE, selfish schemers that ever cursed
a people, and who have diverted their
proper course so as to prevent them
from performing their natural func
tions for the benefit and in the interest
of all, and the result is, gold has be-
come a tyrant and an enemy to indus
trial progression, and silver a STUN
bling block. Are the people in hyp.
motto stuporp The apathy of many
who are wise enough to perceive
whittier we are drifting, Is lamentable;
and the blindness or incspacity of the
illlterate to understand, is deplorable.
Education will advance slowly, but
right will ultimately prevail against
wrong.
If there was not an atom of gold or
silver in the world, necesssries of life
would be produced and would be as
abundant as they are to-day. Gold is
not the basis for our circulating me-
dium, and every intelligent man who
looks at the foundation knows 1T.
Why should we try to deceive the peo-
pie by hypocrisy and falsehoodP
The land of Kansas has been the
basis for much of the circulating me-
dunn she has used, and most of it has
been paper. For many years we had
nothing else: and the country was In a

An English paper tells story. which

sometimes have to confess themselves

engineers In the north Of England had
the misfortune to incur, for some trivi.
