The Goldbu2s at Work.

* the election approaches, the
methods OF corporations for iutimida-
ton OF lat0r become more open and
transparent. 1t is plain that before
the 81 day OF November comes reign
OF terror Is /" hc inaUguratcd amid all
WHO are 50 unfortunate as to lie de-
pendent upon the moneyed power for
the means OF living. The darI, days
prcSagcd by the founders OF our gov
crnment o! probable results should the
wealth OF the nation fall into the pos
session OF the few, are upon us. The
crucial test is submitted OF serfdOm or
starvation, and the only release is in
the secret ballot and an assertion OF
manhood when it is cast.
In the STANDARD of the 18th ult.,
We published the circular letter OF
President J. G. Ives, to tie employees
OF the Burlington, Grand Rapids and
Northern Railway, in which it is de-
clared that adoption of the silver
standard will result in decline OF the
earning capacity OF the road, and that
while wages may not be reduced, the
number OF employees will certainly be
lesSened," and then closes with the
significant words: "Do you wish to
take the chance of it being you who is
cast out OF place.
This was the entering wedge of the
Infamous system of education" to
which employees in all branches OF
labor are now being subjected, and the
Raileay Ige, the organ of the corpor-
ations, is the textbook used. An in
stallment OF its warnings to employees
has been placed in our possession, con-
sisting of circulars and pamphlets
printed upon paper of the ominous
yellow tint that denotes danger from
an infectious deadly disease. Here is
\" Confession of Faith" prepared by
the railroad company to cram down
the throat OF those who are perform
ing adequate service for salaries fixed
by the corporation, and are therefore
never too large:

Our Candidate for Governor.

II there were 10 other Ieason for
the election of John X. Rogers to the
: Executive chair than to clean out the
Augcan stable filled by the corrupt
clique that has run our State into debt
nearly two millions of dollars notwi,h-
standing the constitutional limit is
fixed at 100000, that cause alone
would be amply sufficient. The bare
possibility OF the continuance of such
an extravagant administration should
impel every voter whose property is
taxed to meet the expense to file his
emphatic protest at the polls.
In Mr.. Rogers is presented a man Of
t ability, integrity, and one possessing,
we sincerely believe, the courage to
carry out the policy OF reform so urgent
ly demanded by the people. He is
bound to no corporation interest and
has no pledge to fulfill except that to
the people, embraced in the platform on
which he stands. He has been a
reader and ardent student all his life,
and the bent of his inquiry has led
him into the consideration of matters
affecting the economic questions OF
the day and this has eminently fitted
him for Executive OF our vigorous
young State, which only needs the APP
plication of the principles of frugality
in expenditures and to be afforded aid
in development OF her resources to be-
come the home of a contented aud
prosperous people.
If the Republicans had searched the
State over they could not have found
more subservient tool of corporate
power than they did when they chose
Z. L. Sullivan for the head of their
State ticket. He would, if elected, be
simply continuation of the McGraw
administration, with its commissions,
Its extravaganza, its broken pledges
and elavish obedience to the interests
OF the moneyed power.
There will be no difficulty in making
a choice between such men by peo-
pie who have passed through the ex-
perience of the past five years. Thurs
ton county, especially, should rejoice
at an opportunity to free herself from
the thralldom OF man who has
lost no opportunity TO vent his per-
sonal spite against the people for their
failure to bow down and worship him.

Our Congressional Nominees.

There never has been nominated by
any party in this State stronger
Congressional ticket than that of the
Peoples organization. James Hamil-
ton Lewis elicits attention and COM
mands respect in the large social and
political centers of the East where or
binary men are often lost in the crowd,
and his matchless oratory has been
the subject Of commentator in the
leading metropolitan journals of the
world.
w. G. Jones is a worthy running
mate for Mr.. Lewis, for he likewise is
a man OF splendid ability, determine
ton and zeal. His firmness for the
right is shown by the stand he took for
free coinage of silver. Independent of
every other nation, and without wait
ing to see whether his party might not
be seduced therefrom by the wiles OF
wealth which have always exercised
such commanding influence over the
legitimate successor of the Tory party
of the Revolution. He was the first
Republican OF prominence to formu-
late the silver sentiment of the State
into its present irresistible phalanx.
1t is notable fact that Mr.. Jones is
one Of the few candidates on the ticket
who has been everywhere with a
single exception) treated as a perfect
gentleman. The opposition papers Of
Spokane while they have had roast"
for nearly every candidate on the
ticket, have invariably spoken in terms
OF respect for w. c. Jones. No better
index of human character can be oh.
tanned than from those who have had
opportunities ior close observation by
residence in the same community, and
from this test he comes forth free from
single scar and automatically the
slightest blotch.

The justice of the silver cause is I'm.
assailable when it is considered that
no special privileges are demanded by its
advocates-but simply the concession
that the poor mans money, coined
from the white metal, the money oil

the minor transactions of life, shall
possess equal privileges with the money
OF the millionaire, the money of specu.

THE campaign is suggestive one to

ton finds exemplification in the num-

The peculiar wording of this schret

The peculiar wording of this schred
and the Jeu desprit and exuberance Of
thought manifested by its composer,
betray its paternity to be allied to that
OF that other goldbug monstrosity, is-
sued by J. Francis Forsythe, for plac-
ing the working man at the very bot
tom of the social ladder, and feeding
him on rice, under the expressed con-
victiOn that meat diet was too rich
for his blood and pie and pudding I'M
warranted extravagances. The spite
full fling at the interstate law, which
corporations love with all the fervor
that the devil adores holy water, shows
this; the form of soliloquy adopted by
the imaginary wage-earner, when he
refers to the "few dollars" that he
obtains for his labor; his implied adj
mission that everybody who ia out of
work is a tramp" or blooming
fool" if he does not accept such condi.
ton as may lie imposed by wealth,
show that the thought has been FL
tered through the grey-matter that is
usually found deposited in the bullet
shaped head of the gold-bug.
1t will be noted that the prevalent
idea of all goldbug end"avor is to in
duce the belief that the silver stand
ard will cut present wages in two, and
there is never any admission that with
readjustment Of values that labor
rates will follow the general rule of
appreciation. If the wage rate is now
what was paid before the coin metals
parted company, and was fair then, it
is too large now and should decline !;
but such is not the case. The en-
ployer has taken care that wages
should fall in direct ratio with the ad-
vance of the standard attached to the
more precious metal, and labor has
not been in a condition to protest, if it
would, and has accepted the increased
purchasing power of money as a COM
pensating benefit. 1t is the object
now to appeal to the selfish and baser
instincts OF humanity to perpetuate
this injustice upon the producer of
every commodity who by the present
low prices OF his products is COM
PEELED to make good the increased
values of the abnormal, congested dol.
lar, on which capital bases its purchas-
ing values.
Consider closely the propositions OF
this card:
U The assumption that the pres.
ent pay OF the toiler is adequate for
nearly everything his modest nature
requires is the premise for subsequent
deduction.
(2) The misleading and untruthful
statement that a dollar would not be
worth 100 cents is asserted with Mach
elan audacity.
80 Here the sordid nature is sub
jected to another appeal. The ques-
ton is simply and my interests, With
