How 1t Happened.

Great Scott exclaimed the young
man from the city, who was inclined
to be critical. How terribly cross
eyed that half grown son of Farmer
Whetrock is? He is certainly the worst
case | ever saw. He looks as il one
eye were gazing regretfully back al
last Fourth of July, while the other
was looking anxiously forward to next
Christmas. What an unfortunate
thing to be born SOL
"Oh, he wasn't born that way" re-
piled Farmer Hornbeak. Zone time.
when the boy was about 9 years old.
his father took him out in the woode
an they saw big gray squirrel up in
a tree an a chipmunk friskin' around
on the ground some distance to one
side. The old man told the hoy to
stand perfectly still and keep his eye
fixed on both of 'em while lie went
back to the house for his gun. The
boy obeyed orders so faithfully that by
the time his father got back his eyes
were twisted clear out of their bias, an
they've staid that way ever since.

ditions of labor are the poorest, seemed
to have no other effect upon his mind
than the one that trade-unions, as he
said in his patronizing way, They are
all very good; but they could not be
of substantial benefit to the laborer,
anyhow" The truth of the matter Is,
that number of men like the one re-
ferred to have given more attention
and adhesion to a particular school OF
philosophy, theory that apparently
struggles for an end, without recogniz-
ing that the struggle of labor is on;
that that struggle is the one of to-day,
and that they who band themselves to-
gether best to meet present conditions
are those who benefit most by their
combined efforts, and at the same time
place themselves in a more advanced
position to contend for the full rights
to which labor is entitled.
These are lost sight of by men who
are mentally blinded to our economic
and social environments, and who be-
lieve the better policy is to struggle
for the shadow, even though the sub
stance is lost.-Ex.

Firm establishment is being given to
the doctrine that all species of labor
are honorable-labor of the hand as
well as the head. 1t is only by labor
OF some kind that we are enabled to
live, says the Trades Unionist. En-
lightenment and organization of the
masses of those who labor for the bet
terment of their present conditions is
certainly as holy as the organization OF
mass under specified creed for a
reward of benefits on an uncertain
hereafter. We breathe because 1t is
a necessity. We are here, and use our
natural facilities for maintaining life,
from necessity. Single-handed none
of us could answer fully the demands
OF necessity Man is social creature,
and leans to his fellows for assistance
and to assist. His happiness de-
ponds. largely upon mutually Of feel
ing and interest. Selfshness is forced
to give way, in measure, to the self
ishness of his fellow, and success In
the struggle for the necessities is only
obtained by concession and community
of action. Labors warranty of Sc
ourity lies not in Individual effort
in selfish seclusion- Nut in unity, hsr-
mony and fraternity Labor can find
no power of protection beyond the linn
its of its own confines The only help
within its reach is within itself.

Trusts and Corporations.


During the campaign just closed
much has been said about trusts and
corporations, and, aside from the ex-
travagance into which the political
orator is pretty certain to plunge,
there can be Mt doubt that this ques-
ton is one which should receive the
careful and earnest attention of the
American people. 1t accomplishes lit
tie good, perhaps, to raise such an issue
during the heat of presidential cam
paign, when the orators only object is
to make a hit with his audience. The
subject deserves thoughtful considera-
ton and investigation-such an in
quiry as will enable us to distinguish
clearly between right and wrong, and
such as will lead to such action as will
result in the greatest good to the great
est number.
In discussing this subject it should
be borne in mind that there is vast
difference between trusts and corpora
tions Trusts are illegal in Illinois;
yet they abound as plentifully under
the democratic administration of Hi
nois as they do under the re-
publican administration of Ohio. The
trust is an unlawful and soulless COM
bination that has no respect for the
majesty of the law, the exigencies OF
political parties or the rights of private
citizens. The political ethics of the
managers of trust are in no way
complicated and consist simply of
determination to strengthen and pro-
tect the trust at all hazards; it matters
little which political party is benefited
or injured by the operation. The rights
of the individual citizen are too trifiing
to be deserving of consideration. The
trusts are unquestionably the greatest
evil which confronts America to-day.
They threaten the liberties of the peo-
pie through their defiance and subver-
sion of the law. By means Of the great
wealth at their command they are en-
abled to purchase an immunity from
legal penalties which places them
above and beyond the law. They are
virtually a law unto themselves, not
withstanding that they are IN no way
essential to the lawful and healthful
prosecution of commercial or industrial
enterprises.
On the other hand, so long as we de-
pend upon private capital to build rail-
roads or like works, so long will the
corporation be necessity to our COM
mercial life. All extensive enterprises
are made possible by an organization of
capitalists; and that organization
takes the shape of corporation. This
is a perfectly legitimate proceedins.
But corporations, like individuals, are
prone to exceed the law in the endeav-
or to acquire wealth and power. They
should be watched like individuals, but
not crushed.-EX.

Evidently Mistools His Calling.


How the devils must have applauded
how the patriarchal old sinners who
exploit the labor of others must have
gurgled their approval; how wonder
ingly the one or two workingmen, who
had stayed in by accident, would gaze
at each other when one Undertake
the pastor" of a church in Salem
Mass, belched forth the following
from his pulpit:
When 1t comes that the poor labor
ing class shall dictate to the rich cor
porations and manufacturers of this
country what they shall do and what
wages they shall pay they ought to be
shot down like dogs"
What wonderful conception of the
rights Of man this creature must have.
What help and consolation he would
give to the weary and heavy laden"
who might call upon him in their need.
What a perennial source of comfort he
would be to the poor and lowly, and,
ah how eloquently he could preach
from the mandate of the founder Of his
pretended faith, Call no man master!"
1t is to be hoped, for trusting hu-
manity's sake, that this man has been
misquoted. If he did say so, and voiced
the sentiments of the class he repre-
sents, struggling labor can hope for no
assistance from that quarter. They ask
for bread and are given a stone.

same thing against corporate power.

Recently, at a public gathering a
man who, although a member of his
trade organization, having little knowl-
edge of the trade-union movement, and
less faith in its efficiency to either pro-
tect or advance the interests of the
wageworker, committed as he is to a
school of economics which believes
that the condition of the wage-earner
must become much worse before it can
at all improve, declared that one of our
foremost international unions was
backward because it refused to declare
its allegiance to his peculiar mode of
reasoning and his more peculiar fan
tasy. The fact that the trade to which
he belongs is comparatively morgan

From the Sentinel, Cherokee, Kan.
Rev. ]. B. Wiles, minister of the
NJ IL. Church, who has been a resident
of Cherokee, Kansas, for the past four
teen years, said recently to a reporter:
About four years ago l was a great
sufferer from rheumatism. and my con-
dition became such that l could scarce

told misery for many months. Dur
ing that time 1 tried several remedies
for rheumatism, but got no relief from
any Of them.
zone day my nephew advised me to
try DR.. williams Pink Pills, as he
stated they had cured his wife of sciat-
lea. I did so, and had taken only few
of the pills when / began to improve,
and when 1 took the last pill in the box
I was cured, and there has been no re-
turn Of the disease since"

Attorney T. j. Lisenbee. of Cherokee,
Kansas, In an interview with a report
err on July 18TH 1896, said: zone year
ago last March, l had a severe attack
of la grippe which left me with sciatica.
I suffered intensely and my limbs be-
came so drawn that l could not walk
The family physician could give me
only temporary relief by injections of
morphine. My aunt advised me to try
Pink Pills, as they had cured her of
rheumatism, and / commenced their
use. l began to improve Immediately
and by the time I had taken two boxes
Of Pink Pills l was cured. l have felt
no pain sin0e."
Ex-Postma ster Joseph Lucas, now
one Of the leading merchants of Cher
okee, KANSAS, has suffered for years
with rheumatism. His left arm was
30 badly affected that at times he
could not use 1t. He tried a number
of remedies without receiving any bene-
fit until he commenced using Pink
Pills for Pale People. These pills have
effected a complete cure. Mr.. Lucas
carries a bcx of Pink Pills in his pocket
all the time, and says they are a splen-
did medicine for all forms Of nervous
ness.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness
to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are an unfailing specific

partial paralysis, st. Vitus' dance,
sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nerv-
Gus headaches, the after effect of la
grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale
and sallow compilations, all forms of

Nor why at grief and sore distress
His tears will flow unbidden.
Though rough his hands and deeply
lined
With coarse trademarks of labor,
BY these you may not gauge the mind
OF him that is your neighbor.
His garb may be of common grade,
Well patched and sadly faded
Not by this scale should he be weighed
Nor by this standard graded.
Not versed in classic lore of Greece,
Not learned in ancient story,
Nor ever heard of golden fleece
Or Alexander's glory;
Yet he may have a kindly heart
That beats for those that sorrow.
A helping hand to do his part,
To better some tomorrow.
To glance at ocean deep and wide,
When summer smiles enwreath 1t,
Is not the way to gauge the tide,
That swiftly runs beneath it;
A plummet and deep-sea line
Must be employed to sound it;
By these we may the truth divine,
Rejoicing when we've found it.
The rugged rocks that hilltops crown
May be devoid of beauty
To guard some treasure deeply down
May be their bounden duty.
To find the jewel in the clay
There must be constant labor;
TITS by hasty glance we may
Misjudge a worthy neighbor.
