usually beautiful, and good crowd
assembled in the auditorium. While
they were waiting for the house to
be called to order, the young ladies
and gentlemen reciprocaly gazed and
and smiled at each other and some
few pointed thier fingers. The ever
cises opened with election of a secre-
tary pro tenpore. Then the next
thing in order was a recitation by
Miss Meta Lewis. The loud APP
plause of the an fence altested their
appreciation of the performance.
The discussion was next In Oruer.

world is growing better. Affirmative,

Each in tnrn acquitted with no de.
preclated credit to himself or to the

question was held up in every light
in which it was capable. The in

more from it, The committee which
was Messrs. Lathamore, Boyd anC

he has been so absolutely worthless,
not that he ever was any good In

to "soak his head" but like he inter-

soaked his feet instead. This caused

Company served an injunction Wed.
nesday on the Boari of Mayor and
Alderman, esttaining them from o.
pening Fifth street leading from Co.
dar avenue to the passenger depot
II seems that in the original plat
there was q street from Cedar av-
enue to the railroad, but it was never
opened, and the City Company
claims that it was annulIed by them
before the Perry Stone Company
came into possession OF the prop
erty.
Some time ago some parties, i'm
the dead hours of night. tole down
and destroyed the fence, and the
City Council commenced at once to,
grade the street. The result was
the injunction, Wednesday the City
Company put three men to repairing
the fence, closing up the street, when
they were promptly arrested by the
City Marshal. What the outcome
will be it is hard to prophecy, but it is
safe to say that the street will remain
unopened for some time.

Let Us Dothrone the MOnOpOliSts Through
the Use OF Ballots, Before 1t Is EVerlast-
ingly Too Late.
Senator Roach, democrat from North
Dakota, says in a published interview
concerning the silver movement:
"If we put free silver plank in our
national platform there will be no
third ticket in the field, and the demo-
cratic candidate will be elected"
Which leads us to suggest that now
is the time for the populists to show
emphatically that free silver is not all
they demand, nor the greater part, and
that we know better than to reduce
our platform to one idea. an idea which
would enable the democratic party to
smear and swallow us There is strong
indication now that every western and
southern state will send free silver
delegation to the next national cOnven-
ton, and if they do, free sil"er will be
a part of the platform. Now if we
have got any populists who think the
democratic tariff promises with a sill
YER promise added are all the country
needs they can go back to the EN-
braces of democracy. But the pop
ulist party cannot be caught in any
such hytrap. 1t isn't our size. Silver
with us is an incidental. Government
ownership of the great monopolies is
our main idea. We are the only party
that recognizes the tyranny of estab'
lished monopolies, their fearful fast
growing enslaving strength, and the
present desperate need of pressing the
Sight against their combined power.
It is this recognition on the part of a
million and a half voters which is the
one hope of the country. If we turn
to the right hand or left, if we allow
muzzles to be placed upon us and keep
us silent regarding tho railroad, bank.
ing, telegraph c1l land monopolies,
they will in less than FIVE years so in
,re2se their power and oppression that
rcyj.ution, force meeting force in
such a conflict as the world has never
set seen. will lie prccipitated. Every
power of unselfsh sacrifice 10 spread
the truth and educate the voter must
be made use of. or powder and dyna.
mite and fire will lay low the proud
II onuments of our selfish civilization.

%From report Of committee rendered to the
common council of Detroit Nov. 2j, 1895.
Thus, we see, as a result of the second
years experiment, with an appropria-
tion of $4,000, crops have been raised
and successfully harvested by persons
who would otherwise have been depend
ent upon public charity amounting
from about scr, 792 to 100000, Or a
profit of between $50, 900 and $25, 900
over and above expenses, while, as has
been observed, the financial aspect is in
reality the least important.
The committee in their report OBJ
serve that "no difficulty was expert
enced in getting people to take lots, and
it was even necessary for want Of suffi-
Gent land to refuse some who applied.
It is an error to suppose that because
people are poor and needy they refuse
to help themselves where an opportunity
offers. From the experience Of the COM
mittee such is seldom the case. "
Another favorable result is found in
the fact that several of those who have
successfully titled the various lots have
now secured small farms for market
gardening and are commencing life anew
with renewed hope.
Other cities have followed the Detroit
plan, but space prevents me noticing
any, save that conducted in New York
during the past year in limited way by
the Society For the Improvement Of the
Condition Of the Poor. The society Sc
cured 800 acres of vacant lots in Long
Island City, employed competent gar
deners to instruct the 80 families which
the funds Of the society were enabled to
accommodate, and as result the follow
ing crop was harvested, according to the
figures given in the New York World,
from authentic sources:
Potatoes, bushels G, 235 Cabbages, heads. o OF
Beans, bushels. =. l,2G0 Tomatoes crates. $50
Peas, bushels..... Sl7 Corn, ears. ........l,@ 100
Turnips, bushels. 500 Carrots, bushels. 80
The valne Of the crop in dollars and
cents was S., coo more than the outlay,
but here again the benefits to the indi-
vidual and the state were far greater
than any mere dollar and cent compu% =
tion. One family alone cleared over
$500 Oh the tract allotted them and
now propose to farm independently next
year. When the season opened, the fam
lily were 5000 in debt and nothing to
hope for before them; when the crops
were harvested, they had 5000 in the
bank. This case illustrates a fact Of
great Importance for social reformers, as
does this important and practical palli-
alive means to maintain and sustain self
respecting manhood. B. o. FLOWER,

NUMBER VII.-THE KIND OF LITERA-
TURE PEOPLE WANT.


Too many writers seem not to be
aware Of the fact that people want
clear, direct and definite discussions
and statements of facts. Indeed good
literature is very much like a well
dressed man whose clothes are at once
so simple and becoming that you never
notice how he is dressed. So the best
literature is 20 simple and straightfor-
ward that it loses itself in the thought
it contains.
Good literature is also nonpartisau.
We must have parties ard partisans.
These are always more or less useful.
We have an able and progressive press
that upholds the various party opinions
Of the day, and this is we'll and good,
but it does not follow that the literature
of political papers must be partisan. To
take concrete illustration: Two pa
pers, one advocating free trade and the
other protection, can deal with candor,
fairness and directness in discussing the
merits and dement's of their. respective
systems, and however they disagree
they can always be luminous and suave.
Exaggeration is easy and cheap, and
it is always easier physically to guess
at fact than to verify it. But in the
final adjustment of affairs the facts
stand supreme and determine the des-
tiny of issues and Of men. 1t is gen
orally admitted fact that the journalism
that contributes to the solid progress Of
the country is that which builds on
sober ways and honest progress. In
this way every journal becomes power,
a center Of moral energy, whose in
fuence is felt far and wide. This is the
kind of writing people want. Reading
is usually done in the quiet hours when
men disapprove OF rancor and narrow
partisanship. Here it is that the fair
and manful spirit makes its successful
appeal to all reasonable men, and this
is the opportunity for him who has q
message to deliver it with effect.
