Great Mon and Cats.

A current paragraph tells us that Pro-
fessor Huxley's notorious fondness for
cats was fad which he shared with
Cardinal Mazarin, Cardinal Richelieu,
Charles Stewart Parnell. and other emf
nent public men. The name Of Isaac
Newton should not be omitted from
the list of cat-lovers, nor that Of Ma
homet. The prophet, 1t will be remem-
bered, had so great a regard for the
comfort of his pet cat that once when
he found her asleep on his robe he
would not awaken her, but, cutting out
that part Of his robe upon which she
lay, removed the other mutilated part
carefully and left tabby undisturbed.
Robert Southey was an ardent lover
of cats. Have you ever read the letter
he wrote to his friend Bedford, an
nouncing the death of one of his pets?
ALAS, Grosyenor," he wrote, this day
poor Rumpel was found dead, after as
long and happy life as a cat could
wish for. If cats form wishes on that
subject. His full titles were: The Most
Noble the Archduke Rumpelstitzchen,
Marquis Maobum, Earl Tomlemagne,
Baron Raticide, Waowhler and
Skraatch. There should be a court
mourning in Catland. and If the Dra-
gon (your pet caO wear a black rib
bon around his neck or band of Grape
a la militalre round one of his fore
paws it will be but a becoming mark of
respect" Then the poet-laureate adds,
81 believe we are each and all. serv-
ants included, more sorry for his loss,
or, rather. more affected by it, than
any Of US would like to confess"
Ether was first used for surgical pur
poses in 1874.

OverprOductlOn.

Laura Rivers, of Hoboken, N. J.,
driven by hunger to despair, saturated
her clothing with gasoline and tried to
burn herself up to get out of her trouble
and misery and escape the infernalism
of the hell competition and private
property have made of this earth.
Some of the ignorant fiends incarnate,
who boast Of our glorious freedom, viii
console themselves by declaring her in
sane, but who made her insane? Who
is responsible for a social condition
that drives people to insanity because
they are denied employment and must
starve? Who tries to soothe their con-
science with the plea these things are
produced by overproduction? BY too
fast living? By a bad currency? BY
too much infdelity? By union Of
church and state? o, the liars. o, the
hypocrites. o, the lust of power.
There is nearing a time when these I'M
fortunate souls, or others in like miser-
able condition, will haunt the despots.
the usurers, the mOnopolists. Private
property, locking up opportunities to
create and enjoy, is responsible for the
thousands Of these incidents reported
and myriSds not reported. Every up

and the bill passed, but the confusion
was so great-not because Of the inter-
est members took in the measure, but
because of the lack Of interest, that !
could not understand some of the pro-
ceedings that followed, nor hear the
gruff grum voice Of Speaker Reed. This
members filed out like a tired crowd
during the closing act Of poor theatre
cal performance and after nearly all
were gone Speaker Reed announced .

l have no desire to leave the impress
sion that all men in the lower house OF
congress are more partisan than pa
triotic, for believe there are scores OF
honest, conscientious men there. But
some are whistling to drown the moan
ing Of the wind and the clatter OF tho
slivers on the graveyard fence, fiSGra-
lively speaking. Some would like to
be delivered from their friends and
others adhere strictly to the do-nothins
policy laid down by Speaker Reed at
the opening Of the session. AS whole
they are an indecorous, boisterous body.
They fiddle while Rome burns, and the
people can expect very little wholesome
legislation until o congress is elected

the rewards of industry and the happi'
ness Of the people among the first OBJ
legations Of craftsmanship.
J. R. SOVEREIGN.
Hutchinson gazette. [volume] (Hutchinson, Kan.) 1895-1902, 1896-05-07
TIE DOLLAR GOD.
J. R. SOVEREIGN,

Worship.
Entirely regardless Of the vast num-
Der Of churches created in the United
States and dedicated with more or less
pomp to the worship of the Living
God" the almighty dollar is the god
we worship, at least six days in the
week, and going to church on Sundays
is little more than a spectacular parade
in which the votaries Of fashion display
their elegant costumes. In a word, as
Prof. w. c. Bowman, of Los Angeles,
CAL, puts it, we are nation of Man,
mon worshiperS. "MammOn," says
the Professor, signifies material
wealth, and by personification, the god
Of material wealth. So tie worship OF
Mammon signifies devotion to money
getting, or the amassing Of material
wealth" This "MammOn worship, "
says the Professor, lis the one deadly
fountain whence flows every stream OF
bitterness, vice and ruin. Why do men
run saloons, gambling hells and Ala
media cribs? For money. Why do
men lie, steal, rob and murder on the
highway? To get money. Why do
men sell their votes, public officials
their influence, politicians their country
and women their virtue? Ri for
the money. Why is the world cursed
with beggars in the midst of plenty,
and its cities with sweating hells" q
blighted child-life? Greed for money
Why is the press muz2led, the pulpit
inundated and the courts prostituted!
Money"
MaGifestly, the sturdy Professor fair
ly estimates the debauching processes
of the money power in the United
States. 1t is the dominating power in
religion and legislation. 1t corrupts
the courts and decisions are swayed by
dollars.
Professor Bowman says hope lies in
one direction only. The church and
the state must both be converted to the
truth-and turn away from the wor-
ship Of Mammon-the Mammon of I'M
righteousness-to the worship of God
the God of righteousness. Mammon
monopoly-the money pOwer-must
be dethroned. His altars-the banking
shrines-must be torn down. His
priests - the bankers, bondholders,
landlords, landlords, mOnopolists-
must all be unfrocked and the whole
robber system Of rent, interest, and
profit, must be destroyed root and
branch. and where 1t stood must be
planted the tree Of lIfe-the true wor-
ship of God"
The conversion OF the church need
not be discussed, but the conversion OF
the nation is q question entirely OF
votes. If wOrkingmen will vote right,
the devils in the nation may be cast
out and compelled to inhablt swine,
which does not seem to do any harm to
pork. This done the tree of life"
may be planted beside the tree OF
liberty" and both may flourish in
Ameriea.-Railway Times.

cratic and Republican parties are pic
turing the horrors all brought on by
the gold standard, yet they say If their

bound rule as that 1t ought to be con-
demned forever. Think of it. A party

so ruins the business of the country
and brings starvation to thousands of
people! Bah!
