"Sincs Monroe's time America has
become western Europe q monarchy
Of wealth. The Monroe doctrine was
violated when the English nobility
were permitted to possess over 20, ,0OO,.
600 acres Of our land; when we adopted
the gold basis Of Europe; when Amer
lea created an aristoCracy Of wealth;
when the English buy our bFSWerles
and -four mills and railways; when our
society apes the fashionable In.
antilles Of Europe. Let the Mon
roe doctrine begin at home. Let
the Venezuela commission investi.
gate the bond swindle. Monroe meant
that both North and South America
should be ruled by the people and not
by q handful of rulers, whether In
Europe or New York. Let his ideas
be applied to the land, the railroads,
the trusts, the currency and you will
have ColleCtivelsm.
"If the American people must fight
they don't need Venezuls for q reason.
They have had cause enough right at
home in the last ten years. If war Is
ever iustifsble it is when people are
robbed of their earnings and starved

they themselves produced, live must

HO Gives the Paper Free.

The ADVOCATE takes pleasure In calling
the attention Of It's readers TO the Perine
Subsoil Plows. That subsoiling Is no
longer an experiment has been satlsfac-
torily proven and demonstrated. Mr.. A.
B. Perine Of this city, is the inventor,
manufacturer and patentee Of the original
Perine Subsoll PlOw. No higher compll-
ment could be- attributed to the popularity
Of this plOw than the fact that other
plow companies are trying TO profit from its
success by attempting to initiate Mr.. Pc
rlne's invention. During the months Of
February, March and April, 1895, Mr.. Pc.
rine was not near able TO supply the de-
msnd for his plows, and present indications
are that he will experience another rush
this season. He has enlarged his plant
and secured additional machinery. But 90

objection to joining our party, or st
least they would, II in earnest, help
elect our ticket, as that would be the
only way to get their demands put into
effect by the government.
I ann sorry that any of our men (rep-
rssentative or mott should even propose
that we should not call a convention
to nominate candidates, as that would
virtually be to abandon our party. No,

many years trying to divide the forces
of the people and prevent their cOncen.

The people have built up formIda-

parties are looking with fear and

the following extracts indicate that
Rev. Casson's study Of present cOndi-

discovery of facts which are rapidly

people. He said:

"Instead Of exchanging Christmas
greetings, Cleveland and Salisbury
have been squsbbling like two news
boys over a marble. 1t is ridiculous
and immoral spectacle. Both nations
have been disgraced by the hoodlum
conduct of their rulers. The great
mass of American people have no
grudge against the great mass of En-
glish people, and the war messages are
only political fireworks to draw our
eyes away from the incompetencV and
corruption of the present government.
When will statesmsnship begin and

the practice of government be more

know what war is? The man who ad-
vocates war in earnest is q murderer

canoe ia to a Cunsrder. Some of you
are old G.. A. r. veterans. But not
one of you know the horrors of the
next war. The cannOns of Gettysburg
were pea. shooters compared with the
cannon of to-day. Ten men with mod
ern explosives can defeat an army.
War as it used to be was horrible
enough. War means tigerized popu-
lation, clarifying in slaughter; a blood
crszed country, thirsting for the power
to kill. 1t is the fury Of lynching
mob made universal. The war frenzy
is species of insanity. 1t would take

LAMP ECCENTRICITIES.

y" HERE Is something almost human
about the modern lamp, says a
writer in the New York Recorder.
l have no doubt in the world about
my lamps devotion to luminous
duty In the morning trim it and fill it
and prepare it for future use. even as the
wise virgins prepare the smoky, smudgy
emblems of their virtuous thrift
ID my matutiual vigilance l seek to be-
come the destiny that shapes the ends of the
capricious lumiDary, but when the night
cometh 1 find, alas, that there is 4 destiny
more powerful than and to which We are
both victims. Then we frowu and glover
at each other So l have ceased to regard
myself as naught save the irresponsible
agent of my lamps destiny.
Poor, human thing. how seldom are all
the conditions suspicious to its doing good
work. Is it filled to the brim with oil?
Then the wicks send up an uncertain
wedge-like flame that darts and threatens.
Is the chimney spotlcss and shining? Then
the oil is low. Are the wicks in an amia-
BILE frame of mind? Then the chimney yields
up its crystalline ghost
Suppose seek to conceal its deficiencies
of character and the mediOcrity OF its
achievements by attiriug it in an embroid-
cred lace canopy; how much more glazing
do its defects become. 1t attributes are
almost human, are they not?

Green Pea Soup

GREEN pea soup is an excellent cold
weather relish, and is made by soak
ing the dried peas over night and then boil
ing them until quite soft. Then strain
them through a colander. and to each
quart of liquor add teaspoonful of sugar,
one of salt, and half>a teaspconful of pep
per; bring the soup to boil, ard add one
beaten egg. a teacupful of milk and a table
spoonful of butter: a sliced onion will i'm
prove the flavor for some people, or n little
lemon juice added just before serving.
Canned sweet corn added to dried beans,
well cooked, will make a good winter sue

why the Dogs Nose Is Cold.

Why the Dogs nose is always cold
III tell you, friends, as I've been told.
Well years and years and years ago
How many don't really know
There came a rain on sea and shore;
Its like was never seen before
Or since. 1t fell unceasing down
Till al, the world began to drown.
But just before the heavy pour,
An old. old man-his name was Noah
Built him an ark, that be might save
His family from a watery grave;
And in it, also, he designed
To shelter two OF every kind
or beast. Well, friends, when it was done
Still darkest clouds obscured the sun,
But Father Noah safe led the way
Whitewater him, in close array,
Came all the animals in pairs.
The leoparls, tigers, wolves and bears,
The deer, the appropriateness.
The rabbits, squirrels, ells, walruses,
The camels, goats and cats and donkeys, .
The beavers, tall CRATES and monkeys,
The rats, the big rhinoceroses,
The dromedaries and the horses.
The sheep, the mice, the kangaroos,
Hyenas, elephants, koodoos,
And hundreds more-'twould take all day
Ny friends, SO many names to say
And at the very, very end
or the procession, Noah's good friend,
The family dog with merry din
Helped drive the crowd of creatures in;
And then, with loud, exultant bark,
He gayly sprung aboard the ark.
Alas! So crowded was the space
He could not find in it place:
So, patiently he turned about,
Stood half way in and half way out,
And those extremely heavy showers
Descended through nine hundred hours
And several more, and at their close
Most frozen was his honest nose.
And never could it iose again
The dampness OF that dreadful rain:
And this is why-so I've been told
We find he dogs nose always cold.
