PREACHING SUBMISSION.

THE USE OF UNIvERSITIES-WAN
HELP.
The robbers of old times, the barons,
who took most of what the poor peo-
pie raised on their miserable farms,
built chapels and appointed chaplains
to preach to these poor people the vir-
tues of humility and submission, and
the beautiful doctrine that order is
heavens first law, and therefore you
must do nothing to change existing
evils. When the chaplain so far for
got what he owed to his master thief
and dared to preach anything that
might open the eyes of the poor to the
fact that they were cruelty robbed, the
chaplain soon found himself without
chapel.
Names change, things remain. The
robber barOnS have gone; the rObber
trust monopolies are in their places
People go less to church and more to
school and college. Where a baron
built church, Rockefeller endows a
university. Yerkes gives a telescope
where his forerunner appointed a
preacher. Like the old robbers, the
new mOnOlOllSCS luSlSG on QlCUd Ulng

In Chicago there is university rich
ly gifted by milliOnaireS Rockefelle
and Yerkes. Prof. Bemis was teacher
OF political economy. Recently this
professor lectured on the evil doings
of trus is and monopoles, the fraudu-
lent getting of public franchises by
debauching public officers, the woongs
practiced on workingmen by most COL
porations. To sum it all up, he began
to tell the truth in this millionaires'
university. The shock was awful.
Here were young men being led to be-
lieve that millionaires who gave
money to schools and hospitals were
other than great and noble benefact-
OrS OF their age and race.
There is vacancy for professor of
mOnopoly-economy now in the Chicago
university. Prof. Bemis has been dis
charged by Rockefeller and Yerkes,
who are getting up an advertisement
somewhat in this shape:
"Help Wanted-A professor who be-
lieves that trusts are always right:
that labor unions are always wrong;
that franchises are the just possession
of those who first grab them; that any
method to crush rival is right if it is
successful; that the poorer the man,
the heavier his tax. should be; that
corporations should have the right of
approval or veto of all laws, and a few
other similar doctrines, can find va

WHY SILVER WON'T CIRCULATE.
PROPOSITION TO MAKE SOAP OF

PROPOSITION TO MAKE SOAP OF
The strongest argument against free
silver is to found in the fact that the
treasury cannot possibly keep more than
one-eighth of the total supply of silver
dollars in circulation. They are put out
at every opportunity, but they will not
stay out.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat
The fact that the Globe Democrat will
give editorial utterance to so outrageous
a falsehood as the above shows to what
desperate stats the gold-bugs are put for
som ething to arrest the "free-silver craze"
that is sweeping the country. The man
who wrote that knows, and everybody else
knows that silver is never paid out of the
treasury if it can be avoided. In 1893
when holders of Sherman notes which
were redeemable in either gold or silver
demanded silver for them, Mr.. Carlisle
ABSOLUTELY refused to pay it out and they
were forced to go out and buy silver GER
tifcates, which he could not refuse He
was in this way compelled to pay out sill
yer dollars, but even then he did it under
protest and made a public announcement
that he would have preferred to pay gold
II the government is so anxious to get
the silver dollars into circulation, why
didn's it pay running expenses with sill

that purpose.-T0peka State Journal

THE GOLD BUGS SQUEAL.
(Shilling's Advance

(Shilling'S AdVance)
This is how it strikes the Oshkosh
Northwestern
Grand Master Sovereign now proposes
that labOring men shall boycott national
bank notes and not receive them. That's
the way it goes. For two years the labor
ing classes have had a hard time to get
hold of national bank notes and now
when employed begins to pick up and
there are some prospects of being able to
get them, along comes some walking
delegate and pretended friend of the
poor laboring man advising him not to
take national bank notes when he can
get them. These false friends of the
laboring people ought to be given grand
chance to take a rest and go to work.
They are the tormentors who would hold
a crust of bread at arms length from a
starving man and compel him to feast
his eyes instead of his stomach upon it.
AS long as national bank note or any
other kind of a note will buy the neces-
saries of life, for heavens sake let the
laboring man take it if they can get it.
This organized onslaught upon the rights
and freedom of the working people is be-
coming almost intolerable.
Wonder the plutocratic papers don't
realize llldl tucy are uldhluS lOOlS VI
themselves?
Here is one of the leading gold bug
papers of Wisconsin giving it's case dead
away"
CAS- national bank note or any other
kind of a note will buy the comforts and
necessaries of life, for heavens sake let
the laboring man take it if he can get it,
How would this suit you gentlemen of
the Northwestern:
LAS long as the silver dollar or any
other kind of money will buy the COM
forts and necessaries of life, for heavens
sake let the laboring man take it if he can
get it,.
Now do you scent the gold bug pole
cat?
Silver according to their own admission
is worth fifty cents on the dollar-the
national bank note is not worth one cent.
Silver is legal tender-the national bank
note is not and the law compels no one
to take it for debts of any kind.
The national bank notes are not ere
deemable" in gold-not even in silver,
and yet the gold bugs denounce silver and
uphold non-redeemable private bank
notes that have no intrinsic value at all.
Was not the article in last weeks issue
correct when we claimed that Sovereign
had succeeded in smoking the gold bug
skunk out of his hole?
The article of the Northwestern is only
specimen of similar screeds that ap-
peared in all the gold bug papers in the
land.
Bro. Sovereign, you smoked the animal
out, but whew!-"smell him breaff."

GENERAL.

The Overwhelming victory" of the re-
publicans in Colorado grows beautifully
less When the Chicago News almanac
was compiled it gave us 66,712 votes for
Waite unofficial and this note "by tele
greph": THE entire state republican
ticket was elected, the victory being SO
overwhelming that compilation of the
official vote is not possible Cor advisable?)
The vote will be canvassed by the legis-
ture in January" No more on Waite
from the News. Yet it let's the cat out
in giving LATE Pence 4,223 and J. C. Bell
(clected) 47,S03, or S2026 in all. But the
New York World waited for the "slow
freight news of the January canvass
and gives Waite SILL. AS the repub-
lican governor got only 89,479, with all
plutocracy behind him, how about that
great victory? Both almanacs give us ~
in the legislature against 81 republicans
Another slim victory.
The political condition of Massachusetts
is seen in the fact that the following par
ties are represented in the legislature
Republicans, democrats, prO-rep, rep-dem,
dem-rep and labor-dem.
That the so-called "pop-dem" election
of Gov. Holcombe in Nebraska was most
ly Populist vote is seen in the fact that
the Populist candidates for secretary of
state and auditor got 10000 and $4,000
straight votes. Note also the legislative
elections.
In North Carolina carried for the Pop
rep ticket, proof that the Populists are
far ahead there is seen in the legislature:
Republicans senate IS, house 80; demo-
Gratis, senate 8, house As; Populists, senate
"a, house Sc, giving Populists majority
of on joint ballot.
1t is impossible to give the standing of
the Populists in South Carolina where
much was expected. The confusion there
Is seen in this list of parties in the legis-
lature: Reps, rep-dems, conserv-dems
dems, ind-dems, and Peoples. South
Carolina always was funny.
Virginia had no general election in 1894
The Populist vote for governor in 1893
was 81, 239 against the 10000 for congress
in 1894. Of course much of the vote of
1893 can be regained.
West Virginia in 1894 slumped to moth
ing from the Populist vote of 4,166 in
1894.
Delaware, South Carolina, Utah and
West Virginia are not represented in this
list. Yet it is very encouraging; "our

After they think it cannot do the coun-
try any good, the political bosses let out
the truth about the Peoples Party, viz.
in the big statistical almanacs Of the year
following an important election.
The New York Sun, thinking no Pop
ulist would object at this late day, has
mashed up a pretended list of the Populist
votes of 1894, ''all but where there has
been fusion 1t was careful not to add
up its list because it makes only about
100000 votes, and no old party cipherer
yet has dared to put it at less than 1,000,-
900.

New York World and Chicago News al

and the figures given are those in which
they mainly agree. Where they both say

WASHINGTON. May 1S---The japanese
legation has received an official cable
stating in substance that final and

reached by Japan with the European
powers ON the eastern question. This
was to follow the recent settlement
with China. 1t is regarded as closing
the entire subject. IL is also regarded
as negativing the unofficial statements

would claim protectorate over Corea.
