are made to plead to him for the be-
trayal of his country and his fellow
men-wil be recognized by him with
feelings of anger and despair. The
bosses may have their way. The Iron
Mountain Railroad may record the
votes of its men for William Mckinley,
but a day of reckoning viii surely come!
The remedy may be worse for the
whole country; but it is sure to be
much worse for those who are making
it necessary.
We say to the men whose dearest
birthright is thus menaced:
''The crowning fact,
The kingliest act
OF Freedom, is the freeman's vote.'
Do not let your sovereignty be taken
from you without a fight! Vote for
Bryan. if you think it right to do
so. That is your liberty! You can
not afford to stand idle and permit
yourself and your children to be bound
hand and foot aud handed over to the
Moloch of Mammonism. No man
should be compelled to devour his own
children, even if the Company he
works for desires it, for that is what
you do if to get your daily bread you
permit a system to be fastened upon
them which will leave them helpless
and hopeless in the hands of those who
are eating the heart out of the people
by means of the soulless corporations.
We believe free people will give
these would-be masters such a rebuke
that they will not, for fifty years to
come, again essay the despotic role
they are now attempting to play.

Mr.. SCULLIN is a gold man. His
father has charge of a street railroad.
He corrals his men of an evening to
listen to gold standard speeches. A
gentleman by the name of Kaufman
wished to go to one of these meetings
and present the arguments for silver.
Young Mr.. Scullin ordered him away.
He went into coal-yard, where he
addressed about two hundred of Mr.
Scullin's men. When Mr.. Scullin met
Mr.. Kaufman again he knocked him
