AMONG THE VAST


Number of persons whom DR.. Walker has
cured, and who wish the public to know
of it, may be mentioned Mr.. l. C. Small
wood, who says:

For five years l have been employed in
the Navy Yard, the past two years as en-
giDecr in the gun shop. For long time
/ have been greatly troubled with bron-
chial cata rrh, unable to obtain relief

II. c. SMALLWOOD."
Mr.. II. c. Lamkin, OF Ne 914 NJ street
southeast received an injury to the great
sciatic nerves and became paralyzed in the
leg. He was for Il long time a patient
in one OF the large hospitals. The ply
siciaDs said lie had monafiegia and would
be cripple for life. AFTER leaving the
hospital and dragging himself about for
some time he called on DR.. Walker. That
eminent specialist after careful examtn-
saoD, said he could be cured. DR.. Walker
began treating the case at once and as
a result the function of the limb returned,
recovery of both motive and sensory power
being complete. This is certainly a re-
markable case and one which alone would
attract public attention, but when it is
backed up by so many brilliant cures
covering the whole field of chronic dis
eases there can be no wonder that DIR.
Walker is justly ranked as the greatest
physician of our day. He has met and CON
quered chronic disorders 1t seems that
a week cannot go by without some start
ling cure coming to light.

the Absence of the Family.
Portland Press.
One of the agents of the American Bible
Society recently related the following ex-
traordinary incident of his trip through
Franklin County, from which he had just
returned. There is small farming commu-
nifty up there among the hills, somewhat re-
mote from the regular routes of travel, and
which is known in the vicinity as the Black
Kingdom"
The Bible agent visited the neighborhood
and walked up into the dooryard of the first
house. There seemed TO be no one at home,
but before he had time to knock at the door
he was surprised and startled by most fe-
rocious and unexpected attack
A big Plymouth Rock rooster came at him
like q battering ram, with lowered bill and
flapping wings. The Bible agent recovered
himself and kicked out frantically at the
enemy. Luckily his foot struck 1T in the
breast and over went the rooster. But the
fierce old clatterer was up and at him again
like flash.
This time a well-directed kick sent the
bird rolling over and over But it gath
cred itself together for another rush a nd the
Bible agent seized a hoe that was leaning
against the house and raised it on high This
somewhat daunted the rooster. 1t stopped
short, raised itself on its toes, gave utter
ancc TO three defiant crows and then re-
treated in good order with a stately tread.
The Bible agent soon found that there was
nobody in the house. As he continued on
his way he soon met some men in the hay
field. He shouted out: Look here, if you
don't look out for that rooster of yours
nell kill somebody or get killed himself
AT this the men almost rolled on the
ground with laughter. One of them came
up and explained that the boys had SO
plagued the fierce old rooster that he had
become as ugly and aggressive as any saw
age watchdog.

UNION NOT ANTAGoNISTIC.
There is a prevailing sentiment among the

that the union is antagonistic TO their in

phatic denial which is evidenced by the fact
that the union has put itself on record as
being in favor of amicable adjustments OF
labor differences ~ preference to strikes
and boycotts.

During the reports made from locals, it
appeared that the committees from the
PAINTERS and Cigarmakers had been very
active during the week visiting the Assem-.
blies. The Painters are out in u crusade
against the unfair tbeaters, and are meeting
with much success in securing indorse-
ments and moral support.
The Cigar Makers are visiting the locals
in the interest of the union-made cigar,
and are also receiving much assurances
from the members.
on Monday evening the Labor Bureau
committee met and formulated its report
which was presented to the Federation of
Labor the next ev evening. The bureau
plan Is meeting with much success among
the members, and, in fact, among all classes
that have given the question any consider
alton. The matter is now in the hands of
local organizations for approval or dis
approval. While it is thought that nearly
all of the locals will approve of the scheme,
still negative vote will not prevent the
scheme from being developed. 1t is well
known that a sufficient number of locals
will indorsc the plan and go ahead, regard
less of those that do not favor the scheme
At the meeting on Monday evening, the
committee on hall reported that several
buildings had been inspected, the owners
OF which are very desirous of either rent

would suggest that specialinvestigation be
made as to one of the buildings reported
on. This building was centrally located,
well built. and with very little alteration
could be made to accommodate nearly
every labor organization in the District of

The proposition to pipe water from the Salt river to the Goldiields mining camp is again being agitated.
 Four hundred leasers are at work ex- tracting ore from the properties of the Arizona Copper Co.,, at Metcalf
 Ed Caine, recently engineer of the Montana mine out at Orc Blanco, is running an air compressor at one of the Prietas mines.
 It is reported in MOhlve county, that body of ore eight feet wide was struck in one of the lower levels of the Cerbat mine that will run over forty dollars per ton in gold. The Cerbat is surely the gold mine of Arizona territory.
 In Mohave county the Granite State mine, on Burro Creek, is working three men and two tons of rich gold ore are being taken out daily. A mill will be erected on the mine before fall as there is enough pay ore now in sight to keep ten stamps running for year.
 The Detroit Copper mines at Mo- renci, Graham county. have shut down, suddenly throwing out of fcmployment large number of men who are deeply concetned about where to find work elsewhere. Low prices for copper and high freights are given as the cause for the close down.
 The London Daily News says it is understood that an agreement has been virtually arrived at with the rep resentatiyes of American mines by which the export copper from the United States during 1895 will be re- stricted to certain fixed amount which is somewhat below the exports of 1894. A percentage reduction is being made on the European output. The details of the agreement are to be ratified at the monthly meeting of the producers next week.
 The Fl Plomo Mining Co.,, whose extensive properties are located in the Altar district about sixty miles from Santa Ana, the same distance from Puerto Libertad and about thirty-fve miles south of Altar, contemplate ore reduction on an extensive scale in the near future. During the past two years operations have been confined to development work, and there are now 50,000 tons opened for extraction. The ores arc carbonates of iron and lead carrying gold and silver. It was ore from this mine which the shelter once in operation in Nogales reduced Credible authority states that lS,000 tons of ore from this property, smelted at Nogales, yielded an average of s2O per ton gold, twelve ounces in silver, and twenty-two per cent lead.

Bankers
Nations

When we take into consideration the
fact that all values have decreased
fully % per cent during the past three
years instead of increasing at the rate
of per cent per annum, and the further
fact of the vast amount of interest
collected by insurance companies, land
loaning syndicates, dividends of rail-
road and other corporations, it is evil
dent that the nation cannot stand the
strain for another twenty years.
Interest must be abolished or We
perish as a nation.
The power that the system gives to
the bankers over the industry and COM
merce of the country is well illustrated
by the following clipped from the Bal
timore Sun CDem.) of Aug. 20, 1898:
when Venice was the republic that
ruled the financial and commercial
world the Council of Ten were the
potent magnates who swayed the des-
TIMES of nations. But not even in
their most influential hour did they
possess a titbe of the enormous power

financial junta have an authority and
direct wide reaching influence that
is probably unprecedented in the his
tory of all nations. No presidents
cabinet, not even the directors of the
world-renowned "Old Lady of Thread
needle street." herself could approach
their possibilities. Their identity is
known to comparatively few of the mil
lions their actions affect. They are
the half dozen members of the loan
committee of the New York clearing
house. f. d. Tappan, president of the
Gallatin National bank, is the chair
man and his associates are Z. III. Per-
and Traders bank; ]. Edward Simons,
of the Fourth National; H. w. Cannon,
of the Chase National: w. A. Nash,
Of the Corn Exchange bank, and
George c. Williams, of the Chemical
bank. Each business day they meet
at the clearing house, IL Pine street,
and by their decisions formulate the
policy of the New York banks, which
in turn dominates the tone of the finan-
ces of the whole country and incidental
ly affects the rest Of the world. In
the present emergency they have is
sued the s64, 1000, 900 of loan certificates
that have stemmed the rising tide of
commercial depression. Their word is
the law countenancing the loan that
saves banker or merchant or the re-
fusal that brings ruin. How few know
how much depends on the judgment
of those six men, and how few appre-
ciate their tremendous power. -Dako-

A dispatch from Rochester, n. Y,
relates that Edwin b. Chaplin ana
Samuel Brad ley. the latter cripple
with a wooden leg, were riding in
Genesee valley park, the other day,
when q passing bicycle frightened
the horse and it ran away. The
buggy WAS tipped over, both Occu-
pants where thrown out, and Mr..
Bradley's wooden leg was caught be-
tween the spokes and wrenched off.
When Mr.. Chapin recovered con-
sciousness he found himself with his
head in the lap of LADY who had
witnessed the accident and had rushed
to his assistance. Another sympa-
thetic lazy had the wooden leg Of
Bradley, who was lying some distance
from Chaplin, and the two were trying
to adjust the artificial member to
Chapin's person. In the meantime
some one had discovered Bradley and
sent for the ambulance, stating that IL
man had had his leg torn off in rum
away accident.

Too Much Thistle.

Western farmers find that individ-
ual attempts at fighting the Russian
thistle avail nothing. because the
plague grows again faster than the
individual farmer can find time to hoe
it down, so thev all unite as often as
convenient to have .'hoeing bee
in designated localities. The details
of operations are settled by the town
councils, everyone in the neighbor-
hood takes a day off to fight the
thistles, and in this way it is possible
to make at least some stand against
against the persevering plague and to
keep some sections fairly free for
other than thistle crops. Some day
science will find the thistle useful
and then it will Immediately become
delicate, difficult to raise and scarce.

The Vermont legislature OF 1894
passed free text book act, to take
effect on June l, 1895. The books
are to be used for five years before u
change can be made. For two
months fifteen publishing firms have
been canvassing Vermont. There are
24O towns and forty graded school
districts. The publishers had So
agents at work at first. Then the
number was increased to 1875. and the
canvassed closed with 175 men solic-
iting. The average salary and en-
lenses per month OF each agent is
sl50, making an expense to the COM
panies of S37, 900. The books cost on
an average of 30 cents. If one firm
gets the contract for supplying all the
the text books used in the state for
the next dozen years at prices quoted
there is no money in it. Vermont 5
school officers have received as pres
ents 240,000 text books. The aver
age school attendance is only 80. 900.
II the school directors could order a
change of books every six months the
bookmakers might make money.

Jefrer.on's Idea of Government.

Said Thomas Jefferson: LET us
found a government where there shall
be no extremely rich men and no abb
jectly poor ones. Let us found a gov
ernment upon the intelligence of the
people and the equitable distribution OF
property. Let us make laws where
there shall be no governmental part
nership with favored classes. Let us
protect all, in life, liberty and prop
erty, and then say to every American
citizen: With the gifts that God has
given you, your brain and brawny en-
ergy, work out your own fortunes under
just government and equal jurispru-
dence."

Another practical illustration is to
compare the man at work with the dol
lar at interest. At first thought it
would seem ridiculous to make the COM
parison with even one man. but we
shall make it with all the producers
of the nation pitted against one dol
lar.
In 1890, after almost 400 years of Ia
Dor of many millions of people, the total
accumulation of wealth of the nation
was about s62,5OO,OOOO OO0 This in
cluded a large amount of wealth
brought to this country by immigrants;
it also included the vast value of our
lands, forests, mines, ETC., which We
did not produce, but found ready for
our use
With the great shrinkage in values
that has since occurred the total accu-
mutation would probably be less than
$50, ,O00, ,O00. 900.
Now suppose that Christopher Colum-
bus when he landed in America had
started bank on capital of one dol
10 per cent compounding at the END of
every three months as is the usual GUS
tom with banks where they do not
charge interest in advance.
The capital would double every seven
years, and by 1890 would have ac-
cumulated $143. 3.603, 1913 ,S13 ,22S, ,032.
AS wealth accumulation the dollar
proves far superior to the most in
genious, and Industrious people; oc-
cupying the most fertile country on
earth. Great are the United States of
America.
Great are the American people.
But 2,S72,064 times greater is the
Shylock dollar at 10 per cent interest.
Another comparison which will come
closer home will be to anticipate the
result for the future by comparing the
power of the banks to accumulate
through interest with the ability of the
people to accumulate through produc-
tion.
How long can the people keep aheai
of the banks?
How long until the banks own the
people and the nation?
We will take as the basis of our cir
culation the average increase of the
wealth Of the nation during the period
from 1880 to 1890 as per census reports,
and will ignore the great shrinkage of
values already fact.
Assume ian assumption not war
ranted by the facts or prospects) that
the nation will enjoy the same degree
of prosperity as in the past decade,
with an annual increase of three per
annum and no financial depressions,
paHics or set-backs; the producers with
full head of steam on and sails set
to favorable breeze; the drones quietly
and placidly clipping 10 per cent inter-
est coupons.
From the report of the comptroller
Of the currency for 1892, page As, we
find that the national banks had loaned
out at interest Qncluding stocks and
bondS $2.s09. 100000; (page sE. state
banks, loan and trust companies, saw

The power of interest to accumulate
is not appreciated as it should be.
When it is, there can be no question
but that an intelligent people will re-
fuse to continue system fraught with
such terrible danger to the progress
of civilization and the welfare of hu-
manity. The following table will DEM
onstrate the astonishing rapidity with
which compound interest accumulates
