POINTS FOR THE PEOPLE.

POINTS FOR The PEOPLE
The republican party has been ap-
pointed assignee of the democratic
estate. Nothing will be left for the
creditors-Maine Populist
There is a vast amount of money
in circulation in this country but it all
circulates between the United States
treasury and the banks-Maine Popu-

In the first test vote in the United
States senate on the silver question
the fact was developed that there are
SO silver men and "a anti-silver men in
that body.
If there was ever time when pru-
dence should prevail in populist coun-
ellis it is now. With 9. 900, 900 democrats
refusing to vote at all and waiting for
the coming of party with principle
it is time for wise councils to show
forth--Exchange.
Retire the greenbacks, and in place
of them give the people the promissory
notes Of bankers. That is the sort of
thing the people vote for when they
vote the old party tickets, and they
ought to get it; they ought to get all
they vote for until they learn how to
vote.-Sound Money.
The nation is composed of individ-
uals, and if each individual would imi-
tate the example of Him whose advent
the angelic host announced to the
Bethlehem shepherds, the nation would
be purified, and greed, injustice, self
ishness and oppression would be known
no more.-Journal of Agriculture
Uncle Sans resources of wealth
are so rapidly passing into the hands
of English syndicates that it is only a
question of time when they will call for
a receiver to take chargers the Eng
lish bondholders did in Egypt, and if
there is not ready response the Eng
lish navy will be laundering at our
gates.-Sound Money.
With the referendum in vogue
those who are in the habit of getting
special privileges by controlling the
balance of power in legislative halls
would find bigger job on their hands
They would then have to buy a ma
jority of the voters and most likely
would not have quite funds enough to
reach round.-Iowa Farmers Tribune.
A telephone owned by the public
in Austria costs SEQ year; telephone
owned by a monopoly in Boston costs
500 year. A telegram of IL words
by public telegraph from Lands End,
Cornwall, to John O. Greats Scotland,
costs II cents. A telegram of 10 words
by monopoly telegraph from Ten
nessee City to Philadelphia, costs 80
cents.-Coming Nation.
I'm making calculations for next
year the politicians-in making esti-
mates of results-should not overlook
the fact that there are in this country
10000 600 stay-at-home voters In the
matter of counting chickens before
they are Matched" it might be well to
make liberal allowance for this stay
at-home element, that is not likely to
stay at home all the time.-Sound
Money.
English newspapers profess to fear
the Outstanding" of the whole of
Europe in case of war between Uncle
Sam and Johnny Bull. Russian meth.
DDS beat Rothschilds' scheme of usury.
Perhaps it wouldn't be bad thing for
the eastern hemisphere to turn the job
of civilization over to the car. None
of his methods compare with the cold,
greedy, selfish, gobbling heartlessness
of the Landon ''sheenies.
In Ohio and Iowa populism made
great gains and populists have no rea-
son to be dismayed. In the same ratio
that the people become educated on
financial matters, the populist party
increases 1t is truthfully said that
the mistakes of the past cannot be
remedied by brooding over them, but
it is also true that by studying the mis-
takes of the past many blunders may
be avoided in the future.-Industry.
Suppose you and 1 begin doing
business together and borrow each
others money. 1 pay you interest on
what borrow of you and you pay me
no interest on what you borrow of me,
which of us would. other things being
equal, get rich the faster? A silly
question, you think; and a more silly
supposition. And yet when you loan
money to bank, it neither pays you
interest nor gives you security; while
if you borrow from it, you will have to
do both--Star and Kansan.

nue. to the national treasury had it not

sentenced to serve ten years in states
prison.-St Louis Evening Journal
