WORK YILLAINnHs YYAYs.


The combines work in viliainous
ways. They control prices regardless
of supply and demand.
About harvest time they use the sub
sidized press to report a surplus crop.
The combines pay all the big daily
papers to say there is an over-produo-
ton. They then agree among them
selves on a price and send out their
buyers. They offer so much and do
not appear to be anxious to buy at any
price. This is done to discourage the
farmers and prepare them for low
prices. These combines force q sur
plus on the market if prices should get
away from their control The com
biRes always have a stock on hand for
this very purpose.
The farmer says he viii not sell at
the low figures set on his grain OF cot

they take things easy and talk over

A LITTLE unnecessary excitement has
been aroused lately by the discovery
that some Birmingham metal manu-
have been making idols to be
worshipped by the heather of India.
They probably executed orders for
which they we're we'll paid, and it was
hardly their business to stipulate that
their wares should be used for orna-
ment only. Besides, before we are too
hard on the heather, we should remem-
Der that if their idols of silver and gold
were melted down and sent to the mint
they would reappear disguised as coin
of the realm, and a good many christ
ians would worship them then.

To BOYCOTT NATIONAL BAN
NOTES

TO BOYCOTT NATIONAL BANK
NOTES.
Grand Master Workman Sovereign
has issued a manifesto calling for a
boycott on all national bank notes,
which is to go into effect September 1.
The manifesto declares that the ma
tional banks are responsible for the
destruction of the greenbacks, the pay
ment of the bonds in coin, the funding
act, the characterization of silver, and
all the corrupt financial legislation for
the past 30 years; that they have boy
cotted and Disseminated against every
kind of money that promised relief to
the debtor class and prosperity to the
industrial masses; that they are boy
cotters Of the most cruel and merciless
kind. This boycott, it continues, will
preCipitate the great conflict with the
people on one side and the banks on
the other and the issues will be as
sharply drawn as in the struggle of
Jackson with the old United States
bank. The struggle of 1895 must result
in victory for the common people or
the hope of American liberty is lost.
boycott the notes of national banks, -
il says in conclusion.
While this action may not result in
any direct benefit to the working
masses it will bring prominently be-
fore the people the fact that the
national bank note never was and is
not now legal tender for public or
private debts. That it is simply a
promise of private individuals to pay.

WHAT Il RECORD.

The secretary of the treasury and
the administration have made a sorry
financial record for the year. They are
face to face with a deficit of nearly
846,0OO,0O0 and with an increase of our
Understanding Indebtedness of $780,
325,5OO. Upon all common principles
of rea soning this would indicate a rapid
gait toward bankruptcy. The secre-
tary's management of our finances has
pleased nobody but the shylocks. They
are in high glee. There is not another
government in the. world that, if con-
fronted by such conditions, would not
be excited to the point of desperation.
But Mr.. Carlisle and his superiors are
apparently as obvious to the prospects
as blind man would be of a precipice
that he was approaching. They are
borrowing money right and left to
carry on the government. Payday al
ways succeeds borrowing. 1t comes as
surely as death comes, and what the
American people will think when pay
day does come and when they pause to
think that the increase in Indebtedness
is largely owing to the fact that Mr..
Carlisle refused to redeem treasury
notes in silver, though having the legal
authority to do it, remains to be seen.
Judging him by his management of the
treasury, we would not trust Secretary
Carlisle with the management of our
business for a month. Yet he is con-
sidered able enough to manage the
national finances.
