an American, metropolitan, daily paper Of the

Of progress 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

Welcome Gold JoyfulIy.

The worlds gold production for 1894
was, it is said, $3.50, 100000 and it is
exultingly predicted, in big type, that
the production will be $25,OOO, 600
greater in 1895. Well, what if it is?
That will mean that the worlds stock
of gold will be increased II 2-5 cents
per capita. Fifty per cent of it-some
authorities say IS per cent. and some
say all of twill be used for nom
money purposes. Take the smaller
sum as the true one, and there will be
5 40 cents per capita to add to the
worlds stock of gold money during
the prese Mt year. At that rate it will
take over II years to increase the
stock 81 per capita, if the population
ceases to increase. What hope to the
worlds industry, then, is there in the
increased production of gold that
gold-bugs are parading to fool people
into the belief that gold will soon be
plentiful enough for all monetary
purposes. If increasing the stock Of
the worlds money metal is as desir-
able as gold bugs would have us te-
lieve why do they not propose to add
silver to it, and so increase it's guam
tity about 81. 80 per capita at once. 1t

A DREADFUL PICTURE.
No Tragedy Like Poverty.

There is no tragedy like that Of
poverty. No pain can grind the hu-
man heart like that which comes to
the husband and wife when they face
the cold fact that he is out OF work,
and then look at the tender faces OF
the little ones, so confident that the
father can take care OF them. Yet
we know that in thousands Of homes
in the happy land of America this
tragedy is being enacted. f we knew
that some fend was passing from
house to house, killing women and
dashing children's brains out, how
long would the good people permit it
to continue? Yet poverty is worse.
The slow, dull agony at heart, the
faint flicker Of expectation when re-
turning feet are heard, the death
weight on the heart when she reads
on his face, "no work." This is pain
which no rich and happy woman can
understand. One must feel it-0ne
must know how cruelty precious dol.
lar can seem-to understand what
real suffering is. One must realize
what it is to be cold and hungry in
city full of happy, careless people. who
waste their precious money, who revel
in and grow tired of the light and
warmth and food, for want OF which
little children are dying, in order to
know the meaning OF real heart-
ache.-Rockville Tribune.

sed with fear that it is scheme Of
the PlutCcratic money-lenders to
break the back of the Peoples Party.
1t is perfectly natural that some of
our good men, such as Weaver and

plausible reasons for such a move
ment, but there is no reason why we
should not closely examine the bark

cious fruit is promised.
Warner and Wolcott and Teller will
be found to be the center of the inner
circle of the new party. Have they
ever relaxed in their fidelity to the
party of imperialism? Are they not
exactly the men to whom the money
lenders would trust such a scheme?
Do not their present and past atti-
tudes towards the peoples interests
Justify a suspicion? We consider
their late action in the senate to be
very suspicious and paralleled only by
the action of the Colorado delegates
on the resolutions committee at the
late convention of the Republican
clubs in Denver.

HORSES So "A HEAD.
They Are Shot and Used as Feed
For the Hogs

R. L. Fulton, of Reno, for number
of years agent of the land department
Of the Central Pacific railroad, tells a
strange story to the San Francisco
Examiner of the myriads of wild
horses now roaming over Nevada, and
Of the steps that have been taken to
get rid Of them.
"There are in Nevada more than
100000 head Of these horses" said Mr.
Fulton, land they are increasing so
fast that they are getting to be a
great nuisance. Cattle and sheep
owners are killing them wherever
they can The last legislature passed
a law permitting any one to shoot any
stations that were found running
wild. and the ranchers have in conse-
quence been found killing them off
wherever they could. They do this
as we'll to get rid of them as to keep
the wild horses from increasing. The
trouble is they are eating off the grass
so that sheep and cattle owners are
having q tough time Of it in certain
sections. More than this. the stall
lions are in many cases leading off
domestic horses from the ranches.
So the ranchers have it in for them
and are making it very lively. Many
is the stallion they have killed, and
some of them are very fine, too. And
what do you suppose they do with
them afterward Why they turn them
over to the swine to cat. They figure
that in his way each stallion is worth
about -, which is the tOp-notch figure
that can be realized from them.
Horses are very cheap now the world
over, but probably not since the set
tlement Of America have horses been
SO cheap as they are in Nevada.
We saw an account year ago of
horses being sold at Sheriff's sale in
the state of Washington for 81 each.

sible that Populists may object to
giving up their party organization
and the prestige of former victories to
new asprant for political honors.
There is an element of selfishness in
the demand made by the leaders in

OF those who are responsible for it's

not be swallowed up by it. There is
possibility that by conference and in.

the leaders Of the parties who see the
necessity for cooperation by all free

it can't be done, in our opinion, just
