ford employment to millions of men,
women and children now without
means OF support. though willing and

OF each grower would entitle him to

arise from the product OF the factory.
There would be bdilt up a cooperative

to the changed conditions. The stock
holder would look to the management of

ments should be, he would always be-
informed and keep pace with his
neighboring enterprise. The small
factories, from good business reason
ing, would naturally gravitate towards
cooperation among themselves, all
having q common end and purpose.
This would lead to organization by
states into interstate associations
which could be led by the purpose and
aim of all to a national or southern
opinners' association through which
the markets of the world would be

A NEW SILVER PARTY.-General A.
j. Warner, president OF the American
Bimetallic League, admits that a con-
ference Of leading bimetalists from
differeut parts of the country had been
hold in Washington recently. In this
connection he says:
ct was the decision of tho con-
ference that strong and growing
sentiment is manifesting itself in favor
of uniting tho friends Of bimettallism
in a bimetallic party and to appeal
directly to the people on the money
issue alone.
"The consideration which seems to
be leading to this result is the wide
spread conviction that there is no
hope Of restoring the bimctallic stand
ard through the Republican party, nor
through the Democratic party as that
party is now controlled. And on the
other hand that it is equally impos-
4 ssible to accomplish this result within
ithe lines of the populist party or to
unite on the Omaha platform those in
favor of restoring the bimetallic stand,
as it was before 1873 and of govern,
ment control Of money"
