A list Of the goldbug papers Of the
country that did not include the Drovers'
journal of Chicago would be incomplete.
Yet we find in the latest issue of that
paper the following: "The calamity
how!ers scared people go much that they
have already discounted fully the worst
that could possibly happen. 1t is about
time for business people to sober up and
60 to doing business"
The statement is correct and the adj
vice logical. There is neither legitimate
reason nor EXCUSE for the extraordinary
stringency that exists. The general de-
preston due to the normal decline OF
business resultant from the demonetiza.
ton of silver is bad enough, but this ie
intensified by those whom the Journal
properly calls calamity howlers; the
banks, the manufacturers. the trusts
the railroads and the other great
corporations. To serve their own selfish
interests they are engaged in the in.
famous effort to still further destroy
confidence, to wreck business men, to
in%timidate employees, and to get the
country a. near to the verge oil
panic as possible. 1t is a conspiracy az
damnable as it is unnecessary. If these
gentlemen were one-half as jealous in
building up confidence as they are in
destroying it, the business sky would be
brighter and the situation more endura.
BILE. As it is, their "object lessons con.
tinue and pile disaster upon disaster. In
all this, however, there is a moral, if the
people see it in it's true light and take it
to heart. 1t is due notice that, under
existing conditions, the classes referred

SENSIBLE CIVIL SERVICE,

The civil service commission hal
issued a supplemental order regarding
the rights and duties of government EN-
ployes during the pending campaign. II
is we'll that it has done so. The previous
order robbed every federal employee o.
the rights of citizenship guaranteed b,
the constitution and placed him in {
position of absolute political serfdom
The new order recognizes the right Of
government office holders to discuss pol
itics, to engage in political work and tc
make voluntary political contribution
always providing these things are done
outside of offices and not during Office
hours. II properly prohibits assessments
or forced contributions, and says that
during the hours fo- which they are
paid and in the places where they work.
political discussions must not be in.
dulgej in and that bulldozing or inilu-
encing tactics must not DO resorted TO.
This sounds like an effort to putt y
construction upon the civil service law
and to enforce il in it's true spirit. Now,
If the commission wants to do
the proper thing, lot it go one step
further aud declare the law includes in
its scope the heads Of departments and
bureaus and others who have a large
number Of men under their direction.
They are the ones who do the b~ulldozing,
not the average clerks. This was amply
illustrated during the campaign that
preceded the national conventions when
every Influence of the administration
was oXertcd in behalf Of the gold stand
ard clement, and that, too, without con-
cealmont. We welcome the new order,
for it is in line with American institu-
tons, in that it recognizes federal en-
ployes as entitled TO all the rights of
American citizenship and at the same
time protects them from the imposition
of their superiors in political matters.
The commission is to be congratulated
upon the order, 50 are the employees.

Once upon a time, says an ancient
story teller, there was a boy, of the
Smart Aleck variety, who was in the
habit of yelling "Nolf !. Wolf" and fly
ing, with simulated terror, from the
imaginary wild beast which he pre-.
tended was pursuing him. As Il result
Of these tactics, the villagers, several
times, hastily quit their usual vocations
and rushed out to his rescue and the
smart boy laughed in his sleeve and
hugely enjoyed the Joke, telling his fell
lows how he fooled the people and made
them dance for his amusement and
profit. One day, however, it CHANGED
that, while strolling outside the village
limits, he actully did encounter "a savage
wolf, intent on d meal. This time il
was no joke and, as he fled toward the
village, he lifted his voice Justify for
help to save him from the jaws of the
ferocious animal. His cry was heard in
the village, but the people remembered
how they had been fooled before and
no n paid the slightest attention to his
calls for help against the dreaded wolf,
thinking he was only bent on repeating
his old tricks. The result was that the
wolf seized his prey and made afull meal
on Smart Aleck au naturel before any
one realized what was going on.
The moral Of this tale is respectfully
referred to the plutocratic party and
their subsidized organs in the east, who
have been industriously yelling "anarch.
ist," "revolutionist," 'repudiationist,'
and other similar names, that stand for
things abhorrent to the American peo-
pie, ut w. J. Bryan, the nominee of the
great historic party Of the country. A
cartoon published in a leading goldbug
paper of the eset represents a gaunt
wolf, with red eyes and lolling tongue
and tusks exposed, ascending the steps
Of the national capitol. On his flank is
branded the name Of Bryan. while round
his neck is a collar, labeled "anarchy."
The title OF this conception is "The
Wolf Is at Our Doors"
II should occur to the leaders Of the
plutocratic party, whose money is being
freely expended to pay for the printing
and circulation Of this kind of campaign
material, that there is danger of their
repeating the folly and sharing the fate
OF the boy in the fable as told thousands
Of years ago. The masses Of the people
of this country arc ready TO go TO any
length in defense Of the just rights of
property, They are firm upholders of

surrender the government to the money
kings of New York and London, and alb.
solutely enslave the masses. The Jour-
nal is right, it is time the calamity howl
ers should cease; but they will not, they
are bent On accomplishing their purpose
at any cost. But, IN the other hand, it
is time the people should view these men
in their true light, cease to pay any at
tention to their howls and make up
their minds to vote the free coinage
ticket, declare their independence of
financial as well as political bosses, and
save themselves and the country.

FRIDAY. SEPT. 4, 1896.

The reception given Senator Teller al
Colorado Springs Monday night was
what was to have been expected, but for
all that it is interesting reading. 1t
simply gives the lie to the industriously
circulated stories that there is a large
Mckinley element in that state. There
are, of course, some such men there, and
the goldbug managers take especial care
20 keep The fact before the eastern pub
lie and at the same time magnify their
1umbera at least one thousand fold,
This is in accordance with the Mckinley
plan Of campaign.

the democratic doctrine that all men are
entitled to equal protection from the law.
The plain people of this country are the
upholders and champions of law and or
der and detest the name of anarchy and
all that it stands for. Ia it, then,
wise to call "Wolf! Wolff" when
every one knows that the alarm
is false? Is it wise to dub
the representative of one-half the nation,
and that half comprising a majority OF
the classes which are always the main
stay OF the country in times of peril-the
farmers and workingmen of the land
anarchists. 1t is possible to make q
hated word respectable, and if the peo-
pie come to understand hat the men
who formed the Chicago convention,
which was composed of the best brain,
conscience, and patriotism in the COM
munities they represented, are to stand
as representing what is meant when the
aggregated wealth OF the country cries
out "Anarchy," and "Wolf," it is posi-
bic that some day in thefuturo the plain
people Of the country, who have proved
the bulwark and defonso OF law and or
der, may turn q deaf ear to their cry
while the real wolf appears aud a~atiates
its hungry jaws upon them.
There ia another phase OF this quos.
ton which may also be profitably pom
dered on by the plutocrats and thoir rep
resentativos now assembled vt Indian
apoEis end their allies in Mark Hanna's
cabinet. Whom a man cries "Stop thief"
too loudly and repeatedly, it is apt to
arouse suspicion az to his own character,
and when the people turn their atten-
ton to the syndicate of trusts, monopo-
lioG, money ~loanere, Shylock Wall street
brokers, and railroad wreckers. who are
conducting and backing up the goldbug
campaign with Unlimited millions Of
cash, they are apt 10 remember that
these are the men who respect no laws
which do not operate to their advantage,
or which are IN any way designed to
check their avarica and greed. These
arc the men who fought the income tax
law, the interstate law, the
antitrust law, and every piece Of legisla-
ton designed to protect the man of ordi-
nary means against the overpowering
weight Of accumulated capital and an
fair competition. These are tho men
who have defed the injunctions of
courts and escaped the penalty
which was meted out to Eugene V.
Debs. These are the men who
have employed armies of men to tear up
railroad tracks and lay others in their
place on Sunday when the court was not
in session in order to gain some technical
legal advantage over a rival. In fine,
these are the men who, from year to
year and month to month, are giving the
public object lessons, showing their con-
tempt for all law and relying on their
wealth and influence with the powers
that be to protect them from the Just
consequences of their acts. These are
the real anarchists at our doors. The
selfish greed of the goldbug money
changers which, not satisfied with suck
ing the blood of the country with an
ever-appreciating dollar for past decades,
still cry, like the daughters OF the horse
leech, Give" "Give!"-this is the hun
cry wolf which is now at the steps of the
national capitol building at Washington.

BRlAE'S coon WORK.

Cheering newe continues TO come from
'thc enemy's country" TO the free coin

by day that Bryan's campaign in the

silver sentiment aroused by his speeches

stronghoide Of goldbug principles is as
Stunning encouraging proportions, In
Now York political leaders who stand
close to the people assert that Greater
New York will give the democratic ticket
more than its normal majority, while
even the republican leaders in several
instances admit. that there is consider.
able silver sentiment among the farmers
in the country districts who have here
tofore been relied on to furnish a major
ity of sufficient proportions to wipe out
the democratic majority in New York
and Kings county.
The goldbug orators and organs are no
longer sneering at the speeches Of the
"boy orator." but realize that the mar
velous ability and knowledge of his sub
Ject displayed by Mr.. Bryan in his
speeches are making converts by the
thousand, and the disagreeable fact is
forcing itself on their attention that
sneers and coarse Ridicule will not coun-
teract the effect Of the democratic can
didate's mastery arguments delivered
before magnificent audiences. The Chi
cago Record, one Of the most bitter and
offensive goldbug organs in the country,
which has hitherto scarcely spoken OF
Bryan or his utterances except in terms
of coarse abuse, is constrained by the
course Of events to speak as follows OF
Mr.. Bryan's campaign in New York:
judging by the superficial indications
Of large crowds and hearty applause, Mr..
Bryan was wise in following his own
counsel and making a tour Of the EN-
pire state. 1t is rather q remarkable
journey which the young Nebraska Or
ator has been making. 1t seems that he
can't make speeches enough to suit the
people, while his progress 10 interrupted

ing and a short address.

The returns from Vermont indicate
that the Dutch have taken Holland. No
u expected any different result in the
state election held there Tuesday last.
The democrats 10 that state have never
cast a vote since 1860 which came any
where near giving them a chance to
claim a victory. Usually the total dem
ocratic vote has been considerably less
than the republican plurality. In this
contest the democratic national commit
tee made no effort to reduce the SURF re-
publican majority. Chairman Jones,
knowing that Ephraim was joined to his
idols, let him alone. The democrats have
no campaign funds to waste in sending
literature whore no practical results can
reasonably be anticipated. On the other
hand, Mark Hanna, with a cash account
swelled by the contributions of the mill
i%onaires of the country, had money to
burn and made extraordinary efforts to
increase the usual majority in the hope
of influencing the result in other eastern
states. Let Vermont offset Alabama,
and wait till the undesirable western
states are heard from.

port that the attack upon the Ottoman
