rIan or Dollar, Which :?

Man or Dollar, Which IA new novel
bv newspaper man, sets forth a realistic
conception of what the world will be
when cooperation is substituted for conf
petition and men work together and rise
together instead of each man striving to
climb by mounting upon the shoulders of
another. A story of hundred years
hence, with the changes and improve
ments worked out in detail. A most
interesting narration of what there is in
store for humanity.
1t is book that holds out the Golden
Rule as its inspiring principle, but would
wipe off the face of the earth the whole
present civilization. The most radical
book on socialism that has yet been pub
lished. It does not go into abstruse and
learned discussions of isms and schemes,
but boldly holds that every man is his
brothers keeper, and that it does not
require so much chaege in human nature
as increased human intelligence, to Danish
all the ills of life and realize all that was
dreamed of in Utopia.
oman or Dollar, Which is not merely
prophecy of an ideal state. 1t predicts
the first step to be taken in the near
future toward bringing about ideal condi-
tions, and this step is universal strike
in which farmers cooperate with laborers
to overthrow the supremacy Of the Dollar
and establish the supremacy of Man.
The details of the great strike are Won
derfully interesting, and this is one of
those prophecies that often help to fulfill
themselves. Every friend of the Ameri-
can Railway Union should read and cir
culate it.
1t is handsomely printed book of 1879
pages. By special arrangement with the
publishers, Charles H. Kerr & Company,
of Chicago, we offer it to our readers post
paid at rs cents copy, or six for 81 90.
Read it and circulate it If you would
rather have the book free we can accom-
odate you. Just pay one years subscrip
ton ISL and we will make you a present

which tries to put that question aside
soon ceases to attract the public interest.
To the money trust, combined under the
policy of the gold standard, every i'll
which afflicts society is being traced,
either directly or indirectly. The evils
the Prohibition party is trying to abate
and abolish are tracable to and made i'm
movable by that Mammon of unrighteous-
ness, the gold trust In order to sustain
itself it must uphold every vice.
The Voice is doing good work i'll
giving the great distracting babel which
compose the prohibition thought of the
party a chance to expose ITSELF The
public will see the utter impracticability
of the party and eschew their foolish
councils. Prohibition sentiment is per-
ceptibly advancing in the nation steadily
with the advance of the present economic
movement, while the Prohibition party is
falling behind.
In place of the prohibition of the liquor
trafice being a paramount, a distinct ele-
ment set apart from all other economic
questions, it is only part of the general
wrong produced by system of bad laws
that have been quietly woven about the
nation by a policy of treachery and. brib-
cry, practiced through series ofyears by
the constituencies money or gold trust,
the head centre of which is family of
London Jews. This family has by its gold
trust been the curse and affection of all
Christian nations for century.
The movement has commenced to break
its chains and slough its moral corruption
out of society, and for little group of
Sunday school leaders and men of that
ilk, narrow, bigoted and self-opinionative,
to set up under the name of Prohibition
party, and assume to take charge of this
nation and direct its affairs is blank
nonsense.
Had not the poverty-making and vice
breeding gold standard Jew scheme of
finance slnitten this nation like a June
frost, the liquor traffic would ere this have
been reduced, if not wiped out, to insig-
nifcant proportions. If the earnest pro-
hibitionists really desire success for the
cause they claim to be SO dear to them,
more than they cherish the vanity OF
being conspicuous in 'great moral
reform movement they will cease their
vain, and, in the light of present facts,
fruitless efforts against result, and fall
in line to help destroy the prime cause.
The best and branest of the party are
coming to this conclusion.

The Political Circus.

The most entertaining little political
circus at present is on exhibition by the
Prohibition party. Broad gauge and
Narrow gauge and Dominant Issue are
the three acts engaging the players, and
the astute Voiee is giving the company a
full chance to show what babel the party

and can never be made dominant ques-
ton on which distinct national or polit-
ical party can be built No party has ever
taken decided stand against it, hence
there are more prohibitionists found in
every one of the other political parties
than comprise the entire Prohibition
party. The only dominant" question
not of one party but of every political
party, is the financial question. A party

The burning of the mining town of
Cripple Creek seems to be Il providential
thing that must have occurred sooner or
later from the intlammable material of
which the temporary city of 10000 in
habitants was constructed. The mines
near and around Cripple Creek have dem
onstrated their durability rs possessing
paying ore in unlimited quantities. This
fact necessitates Cripple Creek being
built with more durability. The people
of that burned city have plenty of capital
to build large and substantial city, and
they will doubtless take warming from
the two fires that swept away the entire
original city and build of fire-proof ma
terial. Chicago was an overgrown and
irregularly built village when it was
swept away by the big fire, but it arose
from it's ashes beautiful stone city with
buildings that will serve for generations.
