The Republicans at St: Louis
gave vent to a wall for help to
the "women of America, to
help deliver the people from
populism, etc." The republic
cans know better than to add
the free suffrage plank to their
platform. If they did their
walls would turn to groans so
far as the American women
lending assistance to free the
country from populisn is con-
cerned.

It is charged by the opponents
of railroad ownership that it
will open up the gates to pollt1-
cal corruption. 1t would be I'M
possible, tor there to be as much
corruption as there is at present.
Enterprises owned and oper-
ated by the government, like the
postal department, are treer OF
corruption than are the great
systems of finance and transport
tation now existing. Legisla-
tive Investigations in New York
have proved that the Erie road
spent a million dollars in a single
year to influence legislation, and
the New York Central spent
$2O5, 900.

Let there be no discussions in
the ranks of labor. Quibbling
over questions now only helps to
thin the ranks and means defeat.
You are fighting for too grand a
cause to allow a few peoples
opinions, that do not accord
with your own, to break up the
industrial army that is growing
stronger every day. There must
be men of convictions, with in
creasing earnestness and detern1-
nation. Stand by each other
and the victory is yours.

When it comes to the matter
of wages, public employees are
better paid as a rule than those
of private employers. Uncle
Sans mail carriers receive
$500 for the first year, $500 for
the second, and $1,000 for the
third, and have less hours to
work than most railroad en-
ployes, who receive less wages.
For clerical work in the de-
partments wages range higher
than for the same class of work
in private enterprises. Be-
sides there are no strikes, lock-
outs, or suspensions in govern

We have attended political
conventions and labor cOnve1l-
tons. For brains and know
ledge of parliamentary rules give
us labor conventions. Since
attending the late political con-
ventions Just held in Duluth, we
are more convinced that in the
ranks of organized labor will be
found the brains of this nation.
ORGANIZED labor will yet rule this
country. Agitate and educate is
the union mans cry early and
late, and in that alone lies the
road to the ultimatum-selt-

Every investigation shows
that public ownership of pub
lie utilities is not only cheaper
to the people, but it removes
most of the inducements for
corruption in the legislatures
and the courts. The average
cost of electric light in 131
cities in the United States
operated by private enterprise,
is five cents per candle power.
The average cost of electric

the United States operated by
the municipal governments is

CHILDREN AND THE WHEEL,


An article by Mr.. e. B. Turner,
f. r. G. S., in the British Medical
Journal answering questions which
are constantly being asked as to the
limits impoted on cycling by age.
In regard to the age at which cy-
cling may be properly learned, it may
properly be learned, it may safely
be said that no child under seven
should be permitted to ride under any
circumstances, and that when chill
dren begin to ride, great care
should be taken to insure a proper
crank, and to prevent all hillclimbing
and excessive speed. The great test
after ride is the condition of the
child next day.
As to mothers riding, there seems
no objection to it whatever, if they
are free from organic local disease.
When a person has been accustomed
to cycling and has regularly kept up
his condition by practice, there is no
reason why advancing years should
make him give it up. A habitual ri
der may be allowed to use his wheel
as long as nature will allow him, es-
pecially If he uses it regularly.
Whether man over 65 or 20 may be-
,, gin to learn is another matter. Bones
are more brittle and muscles less ell
astic, but cases are related in which
quite old men have taken to the cy-
Gle with advantage, but each such
case must be judged on its merits.

The stampede at Chicago to Bryan,
Of Nebraska, on account of his fervent
oratory, shows that it is not conven-
tion of deliberative men, but a mass
meeting of heterogeneous compounds,
without any settled convictions, but
an unfounded idea that the free coin
age of silver at an monumental rate
will prove the panacea for all the in
dustrial and monetary ills of the coun-
try. To witness the gathering of such
a conglOmeration in the name of the
time honOred democracy is humilia-
ton to that party and a menace to the
country. TO invest such a mob with
the government of the nation would
be crime. No greater danger has
ever menaced the prosperity of the
United States.

The stampede of democratic papers
form the Chicago corral has already
commenced. The press of the parties
is generally more conservative than
the orators thereof, for the press has
to face at all times the cold facts and
give an answer to all who inquire for
the faith that is in 1t. From several
of the great eastern journals, hereto
fore ranged on the side of the demo-
cratic party and its platforms and
candidates, comes the announcement
that they will not support any candi-
dates who stand on that free silver
impossibility. VIII these journals be
bold and independent enoughitO come
out openly for Mckinley and sound
money, or will they whip the devil
around the stump and give only a
negative opposition to principles that
they have declared Iuinous to the ma
tional prosperity, su5yersivc of demo.
cratic principles and destructive to
the national credit? 1t will be very
interesting study to watch the edito-
rial columns of these papers and note
their tendency.

The Democratic convention at Chi
cago has accomplished its iniquity. 1t
has declared for incidental protection
and put mt the head of the ticket the
rankest free trader in the United
States. In the speech of its most in
telligent member Chairman Daniels,
it was stated that the parity of the
money of the country should be pre-
served, and in the platform it is dis
tinctly denied that such parity is to
be maintained. Divided in its own
COUNCILS, one-third of its members re-
fusing to vote or declaring open dis
with the proceedings, the
convention, bent on destruction, has
turned down the old leaders and
statesmen of the party, turned down
Bland and BOies and Matthews and
Pattison and the whole host of sound
money men as well and nominated
the man who at the last election in
his own district was refused an en-
lorsement by his constituents. If the
Democrats of the country, who are
married to the 16 to / idea can carry
he country under these circumstan-
,es it is in order for them to do it and
aise the flag of Altgeld over our dy-
lamited institutions.

NOT CLEVELAND, THIS TIME.


y 1t has always been the boast of
Grover Cleveland's political friends
that he was the democratic party.
When his difference from the regula-
ton democracy was pointed out it
was asserted that he was better than
his party. Now that Cleveland is
out Of it body and stomach, what par
ty is it that is now holding pandemon-
ium in Chicago? 1t is the legitimate
and the necessary conglomeration of
odds ann ends political that the real
Democratic party has degenerated in
to. Their only life has been as a
party of negatiOn since the war; To
oppose all republican legislation mad
all republican candidates, no matter
on what platform, has been their po-
litical life and business. In the
course of time they find every posi-
ton that they have occupied in hostili-
ty to republicanism swept away and
the country either solidly standing on
Republican ground or mourning be-
cause the departure has been taken
from it. On the silver question and
on tariff alone are they holding their
own views, and on tariff they are on
ly halfhearted, many of the states
coming out squarly for protection to
home industry in their democratic e.
nunciations. If the democratic party
outside of Cleveland is the Altgeld-
Tillman crowd now turning sheol
loose in Chicago there be many Of
Cleveland's foes who will admit that
he spoke truth when he declared that
he was the democratic party or better
than what opposed him. The situa-
ton at Chicago is certainly suggestive
and when the smoke of that smudge
clears away and the national demo
cracy are once more able to see clearly
there will be universal recurrence
to Web Flannagan's conundrum. II
will be easier to ask where are we at
than il will be to answer it after the
asking. The only correct answer
would be up Salt River"

The same old echo is heard from ev-
cry hill and lake in Texas. Close up
the Republican ranks. Dethrone the
bosses. Put those men in the rear
who have put themselves in the front

men who are not pie seekers and will
not serve self, and under their lead
ership there is hope for the largest

the work done by his namesake in

smiles of his beloved Hero. Certain
it is that greater luck attended the

The best elements of the Republi-
can party should assemble at Fort
Worth at the September convention.
These men should confer in serious
ness over the situation, excluding
from their councils all who are in the
sectional strife that has decimated the
party ranks. Upon the conclusion Of
their deliberations there should be a
concert of action to carry their work
through the convention, and over
throw the bosses, black and white.
Republicanism in Texas is Of age and

WHAT WILL THE GOLD MEN DO.

WHAT WILL THE GOLD MEN Do.
Now that the clouds that obscured
the sky of uolitlcal action at Chicago
are clearing away, it is seen that the
real leaders of the democratic party
are heroically protesting against the
prostitution of the democratic idea
and name to the base uses to which
it is put in that convention. The ir-
responsible work that is being accom-
plished there, and to be accomplished
through its machinery, has brought
out an opposition that numbers about
one-third of the democratic party.
This third represents all that is histor-
ic in that party. 1t embraces it's
financial and party strength to a large
degree. The two thirds that carried
through the free silver madness ut
Chicago represents the numbers, not
the strength of the national dcmOcra.
cy. That two thirds includes a re-
spectacle minority which finds it ca
sier to go with the tide than to stem
it. Not all who bowed their knees
in that convention to the silver image
were devotees. 1t is safe to say that
nearly if not quite twenty per cent
of that free silver majority is at heart
opposed to the extreme measures a.
dopted there, but it was not-prudent
in their judgement to put themselves
in opposition. The strength of the
free silver current has drawn this con-
tingent into the stream. They will
stay in the current in all likelihood,
but many of them will wish them
selves outside OF the current before
the whirlpool is reached in November.
These men will not give much aid or
comfort to the silver hosts. What |
will the real bone and sinew Of the |
opposition do? Those men form New
York, and Pennsylvania and Michigan,
and Massachusetts, and New Jersey,
and Maryland, and Virginia, and Ken
lucky who believe that the triumph |
of the platform and policies advo- |
Gated at Chicago will bring fnacial |
ruin upon the country, what will these
men do. Will they prefer country to
party and support the st. Louis plat
'Orm and candidate? This is the only
honest sensible course, for to take any
)ther only weakens The vote for sound |
but will these men do it? |
Will love of country and its financial |
and industrial salvation lead these
men to forget the party name? 1t is
doubtful. The tyranny of party and |
If party majOrities is so great in
his country, that it is doubtful if men
ike Hill and Villas and Flowers and

Dy their convictions, deny party that
hey may be true to principle. That
here is great friction over the situa-
ion is certain, that it is going to lead
20 more than a tactic rejection of the
Chicago platform is not by any means
certain. Time only will tell to what

bird of the Chicago convention will
