Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1896-04-03

Here is a peculiar feature Of modern
politics. for the unregenerated OF both
ole parties to study. In 1892 the ex-
pert politicians of the republican party
conceded the presidency to the demo-
Gratis long before the campaign opened
In this year of our Lord the expert
democratic politicians already concede
the presidency to the republicans.
BY expert politicians" is meant those
who are on the inside, close to the top,
where they can catch the inspiration
from the very sanctuary; not the ward
politicians or the county bosses Of the
two parties; these are expected to have
faith at all times, to never for minute
doubt that their party will succeed
this year." They are supposed to
keep the herd together, and to inspire
It with courage.
The democrats who put up the
money to run campaigns, the rich man
ufacturers, the railroad owners, and all
the princes" of the democratic party
are willing to concede the presidency
to the republicans this year. OF course
they want their own party to make a
hot campaign; it must do that or it will
die Of ennui. They are willing to put
UP money for both sides, II necessary,
to keep up the mock fight between the
twin parties; then, II the people remain
az stupid as they have been, in 1900
the republicans may let the democrats
win again.
But there comes a time when the
best laid plans fail; when confidence
games are exposed, when forbearance
ceases to be virtue; when circum-
stances force people to rise in a move
ment Of self-defense. And who knows
but that time is very near at hand? 1t
is ut least time to hope.-Topeka Ad-
VOcate.

Altgeld's Opinion OF Olney.

Springfield. ILL.,, Feb. ga Boston
paper this evening wired Gov. Altgeld
the following query:
will you kindly telegraph us your
opinion on the possibilities of Secretary
Of State Olney, of Massa chusetts, as q
democratic candidate for the presi-
dency?"
The governor replied as follows:
'Inasmuch as Mr.. Olney has never
come any nearer the democratic fold
than to play hide-and-seek in a mug
wump alley. and inasmuch as the great
trusts have not driven him out of their
rear yard, his chances should be very
good. especially in the light Of the last
three democratic conventions"

property, that is reversing the condl-
lions under which We now live. BY an
error which we inherit from monarchia.
England. we tax people for improving
| their property, instead Of taxing them
for not doing SO. For instance, have
lot worth five hundred dollars and my
tax is two dollars year. l put up a
house for eight thousand dollars, the
tax gatherer Immediately assesses me
for my enterprise. The next year In
stead of paying two dollars taxes. pay
from fifty 10 seventy dollars; that Is
what get for making improvements.
PUT all the tax on the vacant prop
erty and very soon you will see no
more vacant expanses OF prairie In
the center of Chicago. or held for ille-
Ultimate speculative purposes. Owners
of such property would be anxious to
sell so as to get rid OF the taxes, and
the property would be so cheap as to be
within the reach OF all the people. All
OF us could then have homes.
I'm Detroit, Mayor Pingree, as the
chief executive Of the city took &C.
casion to advocate tax reform In this
direction, and to accomplish his purpose
he has found that it will be necessary
to change the constitution Of the state
Of Michigan, and 1t Is not improbable
that legislature favorable to his views
will be elected in November next.
I'm the meantime, all the vacant
property of Detroit is being made use
OF by the poor for the purpose Of rails
ing vegetables, hence we have the
vulgar newspaper appellation Potato
Pingree." The experiment has proved
so entirely successful that it has been
taken up in other cities throughout the
country.
But the people should not lose sight
of the fact that the abolition Of land
monopoly is one of three great prob
/, lens to be solved by the will Of the
American people at the ballot-box.
"As all indication Of the fact that
Mayor Pingrees views are popular with
the common people, we need only look
at his several Endorsements at the polls.
In 1889 he was chosen mayor by ma
jority Of over two thousand; In 1891 by
majority of five thousand; in 1893 by
majority of eight thousand, and In
1895 by majority of ten thousand.
At a convention soon to be held in
Michigan, he will be nominated for
governor of that state. 1t may happen.
however, that he will not remain a
candidate for that office, for even now
we hear the voice of the people of this
nation calling him to higher destiny,
and for one would nominate for presi-
dent OF tho United States. Hazen s..

Take heart said Mr.. Debs, "the
midnight watch is over.
defy public opinion and take your
stand with men like Jackson. The
world, as yet. is neither just nor gen.
erous. Still there is room for hope in
this line. Free government can dem
onstrate itself. The forebodings and
advance objections of Macaulay count
for nothing as against honest attempts
to establish justice among men.
"Organized labor is not understood.
Il is not the produce of cline or sea-
son, but is born of oppression. While,
OF course, there are honest and even
generous employers, they ever find
themselves short of quorum. They
stand simply as honorable exceptions
to an otherwise monotonous array of
forces adverse to the welfare of the
wage worker. The overwhelming
range OF machinery is constantly rem
dering more difficult the application Of
arbitration in the settlement Of disputes
arising from its use.
Machinery Is everywhere and is
everything; man has become a mere
attachment. For instance. men in Kali
amaZoo, Mich, operate machinery for
five cents an hour. This service brings
a reward of fifty cents day-S3 a
week. Such pay for intelligent effort
is so palpably inadequate that strikes
follow sooner or later. They do not
come by chance or by choice.

They sold these to the bankers for
81. 000. 900 less than their actual market
value.
But this did not satisfy the bankers.
In consideration Of the $10,00o.O0o
bride. they agreed to keep their hands
on the treasury Tor seven months-t0
October, 1895.
When that time expired they again
raided the gold reserve. and in the
February following QS96) Cleveland
and Carlisle issued $1O0.O00.0o0 more
bonds.
This was all part of the conspiracy.
The next step IL the destruction Of
the greenback.
Cleveland and Carlisle have already
recommended that. and are constantly
giving the country object lessons about
the endless chain" which depletes the
gold reserve.
Now. II Cleveland and Carlisle were
patriotic. what would be the proper
thing to DO?
The law says the notes which tho
OuuhOio PtCoCuL tuo tlCaouAys W.
which they demand gold, can be paid in
coin.
Let the secretary pay in silver rather
than deplete the gold reserve and the
raids would cease at once.
This same scheme OF raiding this
treasury was attempted in Mr.. Cleve-
lands first administration, when Dam
lei Manning was secretary Of the treas
ury. Mr. Manning went to New York
and called the gold raiders together and
gave them this plain democratic talk:
Gentlemen: The treasury is willing
to furnish gold for any legitimate de-
mand. but II you attempt to draw upon
the treasury gold after to-day as you
are now doing for boarding or specula-
ton. I shall adopt an effective remedy
for the protection Of the governments
reserve. We have cash balance OF
over $150.000.000. Not one Of you
doubts for moment the ability and
purpose Of the government to maintain
specie payment But II you continue
to withdraw gold shall at once order
that you be paid 10 per cent in silver
coin the first day. the second day you
will be paid 20 per cent in silver ana
the third day 80 per cent. and SO ON
until one-half is paid you in silver"
But" exclaimed the astonished
bankers. this II in violation OF the
implied obligation that the government
will pay in gold"
Make no mistake about that. gen.
| tlemen," replied Mr.. Manning. "the law
says COIN and the treasury will exer-
else It's undoubted prerogative."
That put stop to the gold raiding.
In 1868. when Fisk and Gould corr
nered the gold market. and caused such
an extensive stringency in money that
3 panic was precipitated. the govern
ment stepped In and threatened to issue
$50. OO0, 900 additional currency II the
conspirators did not let up.
That threat broke the panic. In 1873.
during the great panic Of that year. the
government threatened to buy 100000
900 of It's bonds. releasing from the
treasury that amount of money for cir
culation IL the bankers did not cease
their operations against the public in
| terests.
That threat brought them to time.
But what does Cleveland do?
He puts out bonds and takes ths
money in from circulation, only aggra-
waiting the situation.
II ever a president deserved impeach-
ment he does.
But both old parties have supported
him In his policy. and both are equally
guilty with him in this foul conspiracy.

the American Federation of Labor
in regard to kerks, 'Wetherheim &
Shiffer of New York. This firm
manufacture several different
brands of cigars by scab labor, en-
plOying, as the communication
stated, children in filthy tenement
houses, and requesting that the
goods be placed on the unfair list.
A communication was received
from the National Tobacco Work
ers' union asking that the public
be requested not to buy any tobac-
co or cigarettes made by the tobac-
co trust. A communication from
the Anchor Milling company was
also received which was laid over
IN @f
finished business.
lowed the committee on resolutions
reported a resolution declaring
sympathy with the Longshore-
mems strike which had been ordered
at the last meeting, and also the re-
solution sent to the city council
concerning Aid. Mcqueen, charg-
ing him with importing labor to do
the plastering on the new normal
school building. Both of these re-
solutions have been printed, and
the report Of the committee was
adopted, ordered filed and the COM
mittee discharged. A committee
appointed at the last meeting to
ascertain If any mattresses made
by the Milwaukee Mattress COM
Pany were sold in the city, reported
that they had seen the dealers and
that no goods made by this firm
were being sold in the city. The
report as adopted and the COM

that there was none sold here ex-

on file and the committee con-
tinued to look into the matter
further. BY this time the order of

communication from Manager An
derson of the Anchor Milling COM
pany was read and discussed under
the head of unfinished business.
The communication stated the atti-
tude of the company toward the
men who struck there early in the
spring, with a request that the as
sembly send the letter to President
GOmpers Of the A. F. Of L. before
the product Of the company was
placed on the unfair list. The Sec
rotary was instructed to return the
letter to Manager Anderson to send
to Mr.. Gompers if he so desired.
A special committee in addition
to the regular delegates from the
Typographical union was given
the floor. They impressed upon
the assembly request to assist the
printers in having the public as
we'll as every labOring man respect
the printers union label and see
that all printing done by every
business and professional man in
the city had the union label upon
it, as we'll as to take some action
calling the attention of business
men and the public to only those
papers having the union label
upon them. The matter was re-
ferred to the committee on labels
which will be recognized next Mon
day night at the special meeting.
The stationary engineers were
organized July 2. They meet every
Thursday evening at the corner of
Becker and Fourth strest, East
End.
Frank =. Hallock, Thursday,
July %, was found guilty of using
the typographical union label
without authority. The defense
put up the flimsy plea that as the
label originally came from the off,
GERS of the union it was not bogus,
and therefore the action charged
did not come within the statute.
The prosecution argued that the
genuineness of the label, consists
in the unions permission for it's
use and that it's use without their
COnsent. constituted violation of
the law. The judge sustained this
view and fined the accused $40 and
cost. An appeal is anticipated.
Everybody in labor circles is
watching the'pro2ress of the Long,
shoremen's strike with interest and
while it is admitted that an un-
timely end would be disastrous to
organized labor in Superior, the
indications are that failure is the
last thing likely to come, Many Of
