Once there was a genial drummer

Were certain sure defender
'Gainst all grip-like pains and ills.
So when every bone was aching
And he felt that he should be
Sick, he hied him to druggist
And demanded Hilton's 8.
In an absent minded manner,
Did the physic-dealer then
Hand him out the magic vial
That should make him well again.
Six he took as it directed,
Then he visited a store;
Then six more were sent to labor
With the six that went before.
So he kept IL up and shortly
Felt aboutas good as new,
Aud with gratitude o'eriiowing
Brought his little pills to view.
But his smile was quick succeeded

And he stared at that same vial
In sort OF stupid daze;
For he read upon the label

SOLON'S EXAMPLE.

THINKS REPUTATION ONE OF THE
POSSIBILITIES OF THE FUTURE IF
THE DEBTORS ARE DRIVEN TOO
FAR.
To the Representative:
The money kings of the world seem to
think that they can, through interest
bearing bonds, place the creators of
wealth in eternal bondage to them, and
rivet the chains so securely that nothing
can burst the letters. They think that
the term Reputation" is so obnoxious
that no party will ever be able to succeed
with that as a watchword. They forget
that history is ever repeating itself, and
of antiquity, no less than the wise Scion,
rescued his fellow citizens of Athens from
the grasp of the rapacious creditors, by
what he called "cancelling of the debts, %
and otherwise provided laws for the pro-
lection of the poor debtors of his country.
This was nearly six hundred years before
the beginning of the Christian era, and
Scion has been ever since lauded for his
exalted wisdom and firmness, in the crisis
to which Athens had been brought by the
rich and overbearing creditors of the city.
May not another Scion arise, who will not
be deferred by the cry of "repudiator, "
so readily used by the Shylocks, when
their pound of flesh" is not forthcoming
And then, gold contracts and interest
coupons will be as hay and stubble in a
great conf1agration. Let such remember
that there is a limit to human endurance
and if they sow to the wind, they may
reap the whirlwind.

GOOD SUGGESTIONS.

CLUB TOGETHER AND SELL YOUR
WHEAT.
To the Representative:
This crop of wheat promises to be a
good one, but am afraid if the farmers do
not do something, spectators willreap the
benefit of their toll. Why could they not
pool their wheat, send samples to an
agent, appointed out of the officers of the
Alliance or any other plan they could
agree upon? II am any Judge, there
will not be many honest grades this fall.
Let the agent of the society take the sam
pies to Duluth, Minneapolis, Chicago, or
even to Liverpool. BY pooling their
wheat, getting together one or two hun
dred thousand or five hundred thousand
bushels, they could save on transportation
by offering it to the company that would
carry it cheapest to the lake coast or At
lantic coast, which ever would be most
convenient; save on transportation two or
three cents per bushel, about five cents
per bushel on grades, and five cents per
bushel on better prices.
The purpose of my letter is that the
farmers can out of these few hints adopt
some means to get as near as possible.
under present conditions. the full product
of their labor. I remain yours truly,

Many Of the contributions to the
Forum are too long. In the future we
must insist that they be made shorter.
Most Of them could be condensed into
600 words. If this is done it will en-
able the REPRESENTATIVE to print
more and a greater variety. Here
after the shorter letters will be
given preference. Write them on one
side of the paper only. II written on
both sides they will not be printed un-
Der any circumstances.
Write them plainly and with Ink.
DO not crowd the lines closely to-
gether. A plainly written letter con-
forming to these rules will stand by far
the best chance to be printed.
Within certain proper limitations
we admit the widest liberty Of thought
and expression upon the part OF our
correspondents, while weodo not hold
ourselves responsible for any views
which may be put forth.
The Forum, as it's name implies, Is
sort Of debating school, for the discus
sion of the important questions OF the
day. We ask our correspondence to
avoid abusive personalities and to
keep clear of the shoreless and bottom
less sea of religious debate. II ED.

OLD GLORY.

(By James G. Clark)
Thou art Freedoms child, Old Glory.
Born of Freedoms high desire,
Nursed amid the battles ire,
Tried by thunderbolt and fire.
On the field and on the tide,
Where our heroes, side by side,
Followed thee and fought and died
Gazing on thy stars, Old Glory.
We will stand by thee Old Glory,
On the lands and on the waves,
For our babes and for our graves,
Though we stand or fall as slaves.
For thy stars are not to blame
For the treason, fraud and shame
That pollute thy holy name
In our halls of state. Old Glory.
Knaves have stolen thee, Old Glory,
For their Babylonian bowers;
From their festal walls and towers
Droops the flag that once was ours;
Ger their crimes thy beauty trails.
And the old time answer fails
When Gai from chain-sanss' courts and
Men appeal to thee Old Glory.
Be our shield once more, Old Glory!
Lo! the world in travail pain
Turns and plends to thee in vain
While through plundered veil and plain,
Stripped and bruised by licensed
Starving. begging for her sheaves
Outcast Labor tramps and grieves.
With no help from thee, Old Glory.
We will rescue thee, Old Glory!
Bloodless may the process be,
Peaceful as the yearning sea
Anchored to the MINDLESS fee-s
But If peace cannot avail,
Welcome tidal wave and gale,
Welcome lightning flame and hail
Till the very stars turn pale
In the grander light, Old Glory.
If it must be so, Old Glory
If blind error smite with force
Truth and justice at their source,
suns and planets in their course
Let the earthquake lift the deep,
Let the wild floods wake from sleep
Let the crouching Terrors leap,
And where Gods own toilers reap
| We will carry thee, Old Glory.

THE GOOSE THAT LAYS THE GOLD
EN- EGGS.

THE NATURAL HISTORY OF AGRICUL~
TURAL GEASER.
To the Representatives:
I have located the goose that laid the
golden egg. She Is found on every farm
from Maine to California and from the
British Possessions to the Gulf of Mexico.
She builds her nest on the farm, of all
kinds of farm products. She is usually
about six months in making her nest and
laying the golden egg. She takes great
pains in building her nest and depositing
her egg, but is never allowed by her own
ers to hatch the egg. The egg with the
entire nest Is carried away by her owners
the corporation thieves of this country
and Great Britain. In this country there
are party leaders in either the Democratic
or Republican party. The geese are very
shy; many of them of my party that would
not steal their egg and nest, they are also
plucked by party tools; and party thugs
known as local dealers in farm products
or commission men, Boards of Commerce,
etc.
These geese are stirred up by party
hirelings and made to quack to party
music as often as the hirelings desire an
office that they can only get by the quack
| of the goose when humbugged by cam
paign music.
If the goose that lays the golden eggs
brings great gains to her owners-for
these geese are self supporting-theyl live
| on what they can get by scratching among
the litter and on the dung-hills of the
| farm. If they cannot live this way they
are left by their owners to starve. The
foxy owners Of these geese throw out cam
paign slush through the party press; here
lis some of the slush,-"Great country
great men at the head of the govern
ment." They want Sound money" they
attribute the hard times to overproduc-
ton of farm products; the foxey Demo-
crat says low tariff will help out: the
foxey Republican says high tariff will help
out; the geese quack in concert; they
swim in the slush and grow poor.
A goose nests alone and drives all the
