Kansas "Redeemed."

1A0A60o
Tribune.I
There is said to be in the state of
Kansas twenty well-buslt towns
without single inhabiAnt. Sara
toga, in that State, has a $4,000
opera house, large brick hotel, q
$40, 900 school house and a number
Of fine business houses, and yet there
is not single person to claim that
city as his home. At Fargo a herder
and his family constitute the sole
population of what was once an in
corporated city.
Last year Kansas, by a oombina-
ton of Democrats and Republicans
was "redeemed" and you see the re-
suit. The mortgages upon the prop
erty have been foreclosed and the
old owners have been compelled to
seek other fields to earn q living.
Foreign mortgages will have to
pay one-fourth of the taxes in this
county next year. The increase of
mortgage foreclosures since the last
election when the Republicans were
successful, has been unprecedented
in the history of any nation on the
globe. Where will it end God only
knows,

How Uncle Sam Robbed His People.
Southern Mercurev

Southern Mercurey,
England is on a gold basis.
England is a creditor country.
England loans money to the
world.
1t then naturally follows that
England wants gold standard.
English capitalists want dear
money-the dearer the better.
This being the condition of things,
English capitalists asked Uncle Sam
to demonetize silver.
Uncle Sam being in very bad
company-Cleveland, Carlisle and
the Wall street gold gamblers-he
was induced to do as English money
lords desired.
Uncle Sam demonetized silver and
appreciated gold just as English
capitalists desired, knowing full
we'll that such action would rob his
own people in favor Of the English
money lords.
Then English capitalists are largely
interested in manufacture. These
manufacturers have reduced wages
to a pauper level and they are de-
termined to maintain them 80.
In order to do this they must
have a reduction in cotton and
American produce to feed and clothe
their labor slaves.
The very best means Of securing
this reduction was to depreciate sill
yer and appreciate gold. This could
only be done by taking the real
function away from silver and make
it only token money.
This our congress was asked to do,
and the strangest thing in the world
is that congress did precisely as the
English money lords desired. Why
congress did this dastardly act has
never been discovered and probably
never will be.

ment and appealed to the country If the
Conservatives elect a working majority in
the new House his ministry will stand.
| If, however, the Liberals elect n majority
Lord Salisbury's cabinet will resign and
Lord Rosebery or some other Liberal
leader will assume again the burden of
the government. In some respects the
English method is preferable to ours. A
change in public sentiment is felt in
legislation much sooner than under our
method. Last fall the Democrats were
overwhelmed in the elections for Com
gress but Notwithstanding the next Con-
gress will be overwhelmingly Republican
the President stands in the way of anv
radical legislation. OF course the House
of Lords is somewhat of an obstacle to a
sudden change of policy in England vet
1t rarely stands out against any but the
most radical legislation.
The result of the election seems to he
involved in but little if any doubt. If is
evident from the tone of the Liberal
leaders that they have little hope of So
curing a majority while the Conserya-
tives are confident even to boastfulness
The Liberals have undoubtedly lost pres
tige during Lord Rosebery's administra-
tion. Its performance has been far short
OF its promises, yet not from lack of
disposition, but from want of power.
They have been at the mercy throughout
of the Irish members, who have demanded
that Irish affairs be given precedence
over everything, and have obstructed
other reform legislation to keep their
matters to the front. Their dictatorial
policy has gone far to disgust the Eng
lish Liberals, and good many of them
will undoubtedly vote for the Conserya-
tive candidates in the coming election
as the easiest and surest way of getting
rid of Irsih dictation

The Manitoba school question is as far

ed If split occurs the question will
surely get into the elections and prove a
serious handicap to the Conservatives in
Ontario where they are ordinarily very
strong, but there they would lose tre-
mendously on an issue of this kind mas
much as Orangemen are very plenty in
the province. The chances are that the
question will be left to drift in the hone
that something will turn up sto make its

1t appears from an investigation recent
1y made by the British board of trade that
there are large importations into this
country of articles manufactured by con-
vict labor on the continent of Europe
These goods are sent to England first,
and from there to this country. Among
the principal articles are dolls, mats,
brushes and buttons. Our tariff law abso-
1utely excludes the products of convict
labor, so that all these importations are
liable to seizure and confiscation.

Mississippi will not count for much, in

Next to being lost at sea there is
nothing that brings on the pangs of
thirst quicker than bicycle riding. The
hot sun and the constant inhalation of

coholic beverages are likewise tabooed
because of their heating propensities,
and there is little satisfaction in wishy-

CORRESPONDENCE.

BENNINGTON, VT, July 1lth, 1895.
To THE PUBLIC:-It is unfortunate in
deed that unworthy motives should be
ascribed to those who fail to agree with
the minority or majority upon questions
of great public moment. have been ac-
customed to accept the verdict of the
people as the lawful expression of the
popular will. The country has such dis
tinguished authority as that of Lincoln
and Douglas and MANY other statesmen,
in assuming that a public measure,
which may be beneficent at future pc
riod. may not be advisable to-day; hence
the opinions of public men have fire.
quently changed upon the same issue
presented at different times. stated in
the recent village meeting that in my
opinion undue haste and lack of pru-
dence had governed the preliminary ac-
ton upon the water question, and the
record fully justifies this position. 1t
was natural to assume that committee
selected for the important duty of pur-
chasing the Water Works should act as
a whole in unity and harmony, and
avoid, if possible, litigation based upon
an appeal to the courts Immediately up
on the receipt Of Mr.. Putnams written
proposal to adjust this great matter out
side of the courts. have stated that
community obligated by an unusually
heavy Indebtedness could not fund its
debt at the most favorable rates of in
terest. This position is confirmed by
uniform experience. / stated also that
the water rates of Bennington were not
extortionate as compared with other viii
lagos and cities owning, or not owning,
the water supply, and my opinion, after
serious consideration, was that no i'm
minent danger confronted the citizen
ship of Bennington upon the water ques-
tiOn. The Village could hardly hope to
furnish water, for the next few years at
least, much cheaper than Mr.. Putnam,
and what may prove proper investment
for an individual of Mr.. Putnam's busi.
ness sagacity would not always prove
profitable when managed by the public
at large. 1t would be possible in the col
lection of water rents that the debtor
vote would be needed when in arrears,
hence the collection possibly deferred to
the ambition of the candidate. In corr
clusion beg to say that should the fu-
ture demonstrate that my action in the
last meeting was mistaken, no one will
be compelled to urge me to change my
opinions. A. P. CHILDs.
