SOMETHING ABOUT NOTHING.


hiAtAAt a INV NfEA hb1Nli III AAlf
tains. Although there has been lots
Of SNOW aud rlin there has been but
very few cold days. The snow is now
less than three feet deep, but owing 10
so much warm weather il has settled
very solid and contains suiIirien:
moisture TO insure good crops next
summer. But Our farmers are unde.
cided whether 10 raise anything or not,
as they fear the next Congress, which
will be Republican, will denlonciize
hay and potatoes so they will not be-
worth eating, aud Will, therefore, have
no sale for their produce. This re-
minds me Of IN article ] read in
Beaver paper, stating that John Shcr.
man entered the United States Senate
- years ago poor man, and ON -
salary Of 5000 year has accumu.
lated fortune Of Sl0,000,o)O, and at.
tcmpts to blaeken Mr. Sherman's
character 10y in,inua;ing that he got
this money for introducing n certain
bill ia the Senate in 1873 Now any
one who knows anything a5ou. that
band Of honest Republicans who com
posed the Senate Mt that time knows
that John wouldn't take bride or
anything clsc, especially q silver dollar
Of not stove. | don't believe there is
an honcster thief in the Republican
party than the gentleman from Ohio
when il became known that the
Carlisle currency bill was defeated our
Pine Grove bankers held an inhigna,
lion meeting and strongly censured
our law makers for not relieving the
Government Of the awful responsibility
Of issuing its own money. They argue
that il they bad the issuing Of all the
currency they would soon become
rich enough 10 give every man, woman
aud child ON the earth all the money
they wanted, and guess they would
do il, too.
hut prosperity is not what We want.
We want hard times, scarcity Of
money and low wages. II this We're
not 80 we would not have voted the
Republican ticket last November
when men will leave hungry wives
and children at home aud go TO the
polk and vote for the party that has
been rohhing them since 1873, they
deserve great deal Of credit for their
patriotism. OF course Americans love
their families 10 u certain extent, but
they love their golibug masters so
much better that these helpless ones
occupy but very small place in thsir
affections.
/ Blu; one time there was man by
the name of Dcbs, who thought more
Of the toiling millions than he did of
the American nobility, and for this
offence Judge Wood sentenced him to
six months in Jail. / don't know how
much Lord Pullman paid this Justice
singer for his decision, hut suppose
not more than fifteen or twenty dollars,
AS men Of his calibre are not very high
priced. We read Of strikes and blood
all over the country, caused by unwise
legislation. Only few days ago the
militia killed boy during strike in
Brooklyn aud these noble heroes will
receive the thanks Of the president oI
the United States in his next message
to congress, for numbering tins child.
II is not likely that he will expires,
much sympathy for the heart broken
mother.
The people have the means TO remedy
these political evils, but the trouble is
thy don't think for themselves but
vote a. the money power dictates.
What fools We Americans are. In
fact, We are rapidly becoming nation
az genuine 81, kers.
II there was an election tomorrow
two Thirds "a the men who are nov
clamoring for bread would vote Tia,
Republican ticket in order not {,
incur the displeasure Of the bankers
and railroad thieves.
Your Canyon creek correspondent
in your issne az Jan II, was undoubted
Is right when he said, "Ths people b,

chains which already bound them;
adds, N may BE- for the best, as Ia.
thinks one more Republican eongrcs,
will put the peoples party IN power,
I Come again, Bro. Green horn" i
you art not Populi$t now yum soor
