ana the insurance money may thus be-
come the sole resource of the widow and
orphans. Surely, fund such as this
ought to be sacred against robbery
through depreciation of the value of the
money in which it il paid. Free silver,
on the basis Of the present value of the
two metals, would rob every widow of
half the money value coming TO her
from the insurance carried by her hus-
band.
And this would be a stupendous rob-
berry indeed. The FIVE Massachusetts,
HE insurance companies of which sta
tistics are given in the commissioners
report, paid S4,637 1888 i'm death claims
last year. The grand total reported of
all life insurance companies doing bust
ness in this state was S66,SJ1 AT. Can
the women, for whose benefit most of
this insurance money was paid, regard
with equanimity the loss of $33 100000
in one year? There are millions of wom-
en- dependent upon the payment of such
policies. The Massachusetts companies
had 122.6O0 policies in force last year,
calling for $322, S74,6 600 in case of death.
The grand total, including all companies,
was 1,143,350 policies. amounting to the
enormous sum of S4,795, OS3.S 61. Right
here in Massachusetts, there is $2S7 ,910,-
4G9 at stake in this way.
In addition to all these there are the
assessment life insurance companies,
with 1920 certificates in force repre-
senting $93,522, 457; the fraternal bepe-
hciary associations. with membership
of S54.650 which paid out S19.O63,6 56
for 10000 death claims last year; the
casualty companies, which paid out
S3OO301. All these, which are primar-
ly for the relief of widows and orphans,
would have to pay in deprecated money
under free silver.
But the money in which the premiums
on these policies have been paid il
money as good as gold. worth 100 cents
on the dollar. In Massachusetts alone
last year so, 740.S67 was thus paid Do
not the women want. and is it not their
right. to receive from the insurance com
panes rs good money as their husbands
paid for the insurance ?-Boston Post.

CAMPAIGN NOTES.

There is not so much fanaticism and
foolisbness in the country rs was sup-
posed when Bryan captured the Chicago
convention with his "crown of thorns"
and "cross of gold" harangue. The
observation-disclosures of the masses is still
to he counted upon as n safeguard against
Socialism and anarchy.
Powdcrly hits the nail suuarcly OH the
head when he tells the workingman that
his motto with regard to money should
be. The best is none too good for
me-"
A man is said to have injured his ankle
in silver debate. That's what comes
of letting people with comparatively lit
tic strength jugglc with these heavy ar
guments.
Mr.. Powderly. who says the Bryan
frec-silver panic would he worse for Ia
bor than all the strikes ever known, will
come in for the abuse of the Dcbsitcs,
who want strikes galore. free silver,
free rum and general breakup.
A government. like an individual must
have reputation for honesty and have
good backing if il does business with
the great world outside of its own lin

one who sweats through eight hours to

Spain wants more money. She should

Even the Democrats of Michigan.
Wisconsin and Ohio are hocking to the

affiicts Mr. Bryan. II seems. that led the

talks too much.
Neither free silver nor any other cheap
money device can bring prosperity to a
nation burdcncd with tariff which or
crates adversely to the interests of it's
own people.

need az the time. and that can be done

Bryan's campaign speeches are like

ming.

class sl. to become farmers or producers Of
Inc year 1892 shows a record of mn r
,neous activity In the direction of secur-
ns u larger division of labor by en-
pIioyihg more In our mechanical indus
tries. Our shops were filling up, new
enterprises were started, labor was In
demand at good prices In mechanical in
uustries, reciprocity was charging and
In every way to be realizing for the
American farmer and artisan the full
value OF that law of political economy
b0r." " Va %"
In 1892 the policy of protection was re-
versed and thus the laborers from the
shops ana factories were forced from
sneer necessity to go out upon the lands
anu become producers instead of cOnsum-
ers; II has been estimated that over
mllllon laborers have since the election of
looz when compelled to seek employ
ment in farming In order to obtain sub
sistence for themselves and families;
many OF these have converted parcels
OF ground near and around their homes
into corn and potato patches, thereby
enormously decreasing the demand for
the products of the regular farm. 1t
IL easy to understand when the full effect
OF this shifting of labor from the mechan-
zeal Industries to the farm is considered,
what the effect must be upon prices
OF farm products.
In view of these facts, all of which can
he verified in the past history of our
country, 1t is plain that our farmers are
directly interested in the employment of
labor and that their prosperity depends
largely upon whether that labor is en-
ployed as competitors in the production
OF farm products, or as consumers en-
In AV.A
the country. We are certainly learning
from severe practical experience the
truth and value of the economic principle
already referred to that "the greatest
creator of wealth is the greatest possible
division of labor" We are also learning
that this division of labor may be
brought about by wise policy of protcc-
ton.
The effect of production upon the
products of the farm can be summed up
in few words. First, will it increase
or diminish the number engaged in pro-
ducing the products of the farm? Sec
ond, will II increase or diminish the num-
Der OF consumers of farm products?
When you have answered these two
plain propositions you will be master of
the entire argument of protection and
free trade. so far as the farmer is con-
cerned. You need be concerned in no
way about the free coinage Of silver
as this cannot in any way possible in
crease or diminish the consumption of
your products. Its adoption. however,
would have the effect, as Mr.. Bryan
admits. of producing a panic and con-
tinued depression in our mechanical in
dustries, forcing more labor to the farm
and thereby add to the number already
farm products.
The employment of labor in our me-
rhnnienI trtn ,,Af tI.A
coinage of silver is the thing that inter-
ests the farmer and is to secure FOR him
the prosperity he so much desires.-H.

DEEDS NOT WORDS.
What Mckinley Did for Destitute Miners
Less than Two Years Ago.


Less than Two Years Ago.
While Candidate Bryan is going about
the country telling fairy tales of what
he and his policy will do for the poor,
the question naturally arises: what
has he ever done for the working poor2
Is II his habit or nature to feel for and
try to relieve the suffering of those less
fortunate in life than himsclfT' :.
His most loyal supporters make no
claims that he has ever shown this feel
ing for his fcllowman until now. In
fnct. he has no record of ever having
gone out of his way to do anything for
what. he calls the masses" On the
other hand, Maj. Mckinley, while not
nosino os one who sweeps for the
masses" has a record. He says nothing
about the occurrence which gave the
world an insight into the heart OF the
man an occurrence which demonstrated
that he was the friend of those who are
moor and hungry. but a great multitude
rcmcmbcrs IT, Such acts live in the
memory of those who earn their bread
Inv the sweat Of their face"
In speaking of Maj. Mckinley, tho
Grand Rapids Herald says:
"No account of McKinley's conncc-
ton with labor problems would be COM
nIetc without some mention of the tire
loss energy which he displayed in secur-
ing relief for the 1000 miners in the
Hacking valley mining district who carly
IN ISp5 were reported out of work and
destitute. The news first came TO the
governor ut midnight. hut before 3
O'clock in the morning he had upon his
own responsibility dispatched to th: af-
nictcd district n car containing $1,000
worth Of provisions. Later he made APP
peals for assistance and finally distiib-
I,tcd among the 2T23 families In the
district clothing aud provisions to the
amount Of $50, 1905"
