A Frank Confession.


There can be no donbt but that il
this country is to be run on the pluto
cratic goldbug system, the line OF de-
marcation between those who produce
and those who spend will be sharply
drawn. For years the attempt has
been made to establish an aristocracy
of wealth in this country. With this
end in view vast trusts and combines
have been organized, in order that
monopoly may keep the producer
down while wealth aggregates in the
hands Of the few. To the New York
Sun We are indebted for frank
avowal OF the way this would-be ruling
class views the question. That paper
says:
"The talk so freely INDUCED in of
the misery OF our working people is
hysterical exaggeration. A number
of philanthropic women memorialized
the State Legislature to do something
for the relief of 10000 working wo-
men in this city who, they said, were
earning only go cents day. They
evidently. did not know that in China
and in India, where plain food is as
dear as it is in this country, 10 cents a
day is the regular wages and proves
sufficient for the simple wants OF the
bulk of the population"
Yes, Danish the poor mans money
and hoard the gold, keep down the
price of labor and what labor produces
aud you have the whole system. Ten
cents a day is sufficient for the simple
wants Of the bulk Of the people,"
Why, the masses would be better Off
without any standard of value. Let
every man barter his products for the
products of his neighbor. This would
at least secure fair deal and wealth
could not accumulate in to the posses
sion OF the few.
The trouble is that too many ave-
nues to acquire wealth, great wealth
and acquire it rapidly, have been
opened. Legislation has been in that
direction. Trusts are formed with that
object and combinations are made to
that end. The rights of the masses
and the interests Of humanity have
been ignored; what is termed "pros-
perity" applies only to the few while
for the many, "ten cents day is suf-
ficient for their simple wants"
IN fares the land to astening ills prey,
Where wealth accumulates and men decay"
The country has been warned
against this condition by its best and
wisest men. Washington, Jefferson
and Lincoln were all apprehensive of
the great power Of wealth and pre-
dicted disaster should the day ever
come when there should be a concen-
tration OF the wealth in the hands OF
few But all the people are not to
be deceived all the time" and they
are not only their danger but are be.
ginning to realize their strength.

There is at least one member of the
cabinet who has the courage of his
convictions and is not to be swerved
from his duty to the people, no matter
what his chief and the rest of his Off
cial family may do. Hon. William L.
Wilson, of West Virginia, now Post
master General, in q recent interview
declared himself in the following vigo-
rous aud MOTTO be- misunderstood Ian

SILVER IN IOWA.
Democratic Leaders Issue n Call
for a Conference.


for Conference.
A call for State silver conference in
Des Moines, on June 6 has been issued
by about forty well-known Democrats,
headed by ex-Lieut. Gov. Bestow.
The call for the conference says
at can no longer be doubted that a
concerted effort is being made by n
minority, but powerful minority,
within both the Republican and DEM
ocratic parties, to foist on the country
the class doctrine OF gold mono-metal-
lism, as distinguished from the genuine
bi-metallism contemplated by the con-
stitution and advocated by the Demo-
cracy since the birth of the party.
This movement is backed primarily by
the money lenders of Europe, and Sec
ondarily, the class interests in this
country that have grown up under
vicious legislation.
"Ihelr forces, comparatively lew In
number. but working in perfect
harmony for a central purpose, have
perfected their plans to control the
temporary and permanent organiza.
ton OF the state convention to be held
in Marshalltown August Z. If the
plans of the single gold standard forces
are not bravely met and defeated, the
party i'll Iowa will certainly be en-.
rolled under the banner of tie foreign
financiers and the Wall street bankers.
Let us face the issue like true Demo-
Gratis and acquit ourselves like men,
giving our adversaries no cause for just
complaint, but let it be fight to the
finish. There is no time for shrinking
no time for silly compromises on
vital issues; the welfare of the party
for years to come is at stake"

RAILWAY IMPROVEMENTS,

The improvements already inaugur. ated and promised to be inaugurated in the service of the Maricopa & Phoenix and Southern Pacific railways, mark a new era in the history of Phoenix. The Pullman sleeper and the close connec- tions at Maricopa both ways make travelling over these popular lines de- cided luxury. The shortening of time to the coast is also matter greatly ap. preciated.
 General Superinte ndent Honshell ia certainly the man for the position which he occupies and as the people be- come acquainted with him and his methods the popularity of the lines re. presented by him continues to grow.

THE FINANCIAL QUESTION.

In the course ot an interview Senator
 Stephen NJ. White says that he does not think the next congress will pess s'any financial measure of importance. " He says further that he believes "the new house will oppose free silver radio. ally" It appears very proba ble that Senator White is correct in the former opinion, and it is not to be feared that his latter opinion is hardly less in the line of accurate prophecy. The fact is that in the situation with reference to silver at present is seen one of those difficulties which are inseparable from the representative form of government. The financial problem is more pressing than any other now engaging the atten- tion of the people, but it is recent events that have brought it to the front, and, as consequence, most of the con, gressmen who should act upon it in the next house are practically uninstructed, and they will feel at liberty to act as they please concerning it. With the power of the administration to urge them to inactivity. it is to be feared that they will respond to the pressure
 This, we say, is difficulty with which representative government has to con.

THE GRANDDAUGHTER of Francis Scott Key is said to be destitute. Her con- dition appealed so strongly to Secretary Hoke Smith that he made an effort to have her reinstated. The Secretary was told that she had been dismissed for in- efficiency. There is reason for the be- lief. however, that the kind of in- efficiency which Miss Key developed was loss of influence

tend-when pressing political questions suddenly arise they sometimes find re- presentatives not in closest touch with popular sentiment.
 But if this difficulty occasionally arises the remedy is never far removed. It has but to wait till the next general election day, and the people can then make their wishes distinctly under. stood. This being the case, it follows that it is the duty of every good citizen to do all that he can between this time and the next general election day to help to formulate 8 public sentiment which will make itself felt at the polls. If any man is honestly and unselfshly monometallst let him work to ad- vance that tenet if he is a consiste nt monometallist he should be not the less industrious in season and out of season in attempting to spread his views. In any event, he should not re- main quiet and silent, for men of all financial beliefs must admit that the question is most important to the pub lie welfare. Silence at such time is not good citizenship.
 The financial question cannot be pressed to the rear now; it has come to stay until it is definitely settled. More than that. we believe that it will re- main before the people until it is settled in favor of bim metallism. As rapidly as possible public sentiment should be so crystallized that the next congressman elected will have no opportunity to say that they do not fully know what the people want.

WELLINGTON WAS CHEERED

He Whipped the French. But He Did It
 Like a Gentleman.
 While Wellington was still marquis he went to Paris from Toulouse, where he had fought and won the last battle of the Peninsular war.
 He went to the opera the same even ing, and, though he wore plain clothes and sat in the back of the box, he was almost immediately recognized by some one in the pit, who cried out ''Vellington!"
 The name was taken up by others. and at last the entire pit rose, turned to the box and called: ''Vive Yelling ton!'
 Nor would the people be satisfied un- til he had stood up and bowed to them, when he was cheered and applauded again, says Frank Harrison's Family Magazine. At the end of the perform ance the passage from the box was found to be crowded with people. The ladies of the party drew back nervous ly, but the duke said: Come along!" in his brusque way, and conducted them on. While they were still in the cor ridor man in the crowd was heard to say'to his companions:
 But why are you applauding so much? He has always beaten us!"
 This was very true, and the question seemed a natural one, but the answer was charming:
 "Yes, but he has always beaten US like gentleman"
