Frce Coinnge In Osnnburgs.
From the Bulloch (Ga.) Times (Dem).

The free silver cranks are still contend
ing that all the financial ills of this coun-
try can be cured by restoring silver to
free and unlimited coinage at $1.29 an
ounce, or at a ratio with gold of 16 to l.
We feel just as sure that quite as eff
cient a remedy could be found in the gov
eminent undertaking to manufacture all
our cotton into osnaburgs, free of charge
20 the producers, and declaring the cloth
SO manufactured to be a legal tender for
all obligations at 81 per yard.

1t begins to appear that the story, pub
lished a few days ago, to the effect that
the Queen of Korea was not murdered af-
ter ALL but escaped from the palace at the
time her attendants were butchered by a
mob, will not prove correct. Mail advices
up TO Jan. 3 from Toxic contain no refer
ence to the escape of the queen. On the
other hand, they report the execution of
three Koreans for completely in her muir
der. 1t is possible that the story of the es-
cape of the queen was brought out by de-
signing oriental politicians with the view

the future claimant to imperial position.
For ways that are dark and tricks that are
vain, the probabilities are the Korean is
as peculiar as the heather Chinee.

Ancient Watermarks TO the Antiquary,
about the earliest date at which they
were used was 1901. The paper of the first
books printed in England by Caxton bore
the water mark of a small black letter,

guish various kinds and size of paper
they soon gave their names to the kinds

American republics, are simply
contemplate. Indian wars are
all of the past-what then? The
one thing that afrights is the
condition of labor. The corpor-
alton, trust and capitalistic Shy
locks, by processes more lntam-
Gus than Shakespeare's Jew,
adopted to glut his vengeance,
pursue a policy of starvation,
degradation and death. | speak
by the card-neither sickness,
starvation nor death could curb
the "cruel devil that predomin
ated George M. Pullman. Car
negie, the elbow -ho1e' thief and
hypocrite, who first robbed his
employees, and then to kill them
provided electricity, scalding
water and Pinkertons; and the
General Managers association,
pursuing workingmen with a
blacklist as deadly as cobra's
fang, have brought about, with
the aid of infamous legislation, a
condition which is everywhere
arousing alarm.
Lincoln said this government
could not exist half free and half
slave. Can it exist half starved
and half we'll fed? Can it exist
half degraded and half exalted?
I propose the solidarity of
labor; that by peaceful methods
labor problems may be solved
for the peace, glory and perpetu-
ity of the government as founded
by the patriotic fathers. I would
have labor vote one way to
emancipate labor and save the
Union, as Union soldiers shot
one way to save the Union and
emancipate the slaves. And over
all and above all, would write,
as old Job wanted to write,
with an iron pen and lead in
the rock forever" This motto:
with Solidarity the Rights of
Labor Can be Secured.'
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1896-04-11

There is one supreme demand of
labor and that is uni6cation.
Labor fractionized is labor i'm
potent. The enemies of labor
appreciate this imbicility and
profit by it. They unity for vic
tory and achieve it. Labor sails
in a hundred small crafts in seas
where plutocratic devilhsh
abound and there is not an in
stance on record where one of
these labor crafts challenged re-
sistance that the plutocratic de-
vilfsh, with their prehensile
arms have not dragged them
down to defeat, and being equip
ped with the means of 0bscuring
their motives if not their acts,
have managed to make labor
pay all the penalties and endure
all the odium consequent upon
defeat. l assume that common
sense will ultimately overcome
these prevailing errors, and that
labor, by the invincible power of
solidarity, will be prepared to
successful resist p1utocracy.
/ have repeatedly declared that
in the absence of solidarity it
were folly for men to strike
against the wrongsinficted upon
them by their employers, and if
labor had the solidarity of it's
enemies, everything bearing the
stamp of righteousness would
be secured, because the exhibition
of power would be so overmas-
tering that resistance would be
madness.
I am profoundly impressed
with the conviction that solidar-
ity is the last and only hope of
labor. There must of necessity,
be an Ultima Thule the tarthest
limit of labor's endurance of
wrong. There must come time
when labor will make final eff
fort to resist encroachments up
on it's rights. My forte is not
bombast. l formulate no re-
historical periods to captivate
the populace, but do evoke the
genius of American citizenship to
bear witness that the work of
degradation now going forward
will not be permitted to proceed
forever nor until labor deprived
of it's eyes and shorn of it's Samp-
son locks, becomes the sport of
it's enemies.
What is it that today menaces
the tranquility ofsociety and the

the track of centuries, verities
and vagaries have intermingled
until in their separation it is
found that in a vagary there is
an element of fact, and in a fact,
an element of vagary, and about
the best that can be done under
the circumstances is to find
whether truth or error prepond-
crates.
In discussing the solidarity of
labor, / am not without certain
data that serves as a foundation
for those who believe that it's
contamination is within the
boundaries of the possible. There
is such thing as human fellow
ship, and solidarity means fel-
lowship, fraternity, mutual SYM
patty, interest in each others
welfare, and in seeking to bring
about solidarity in the ranks of
workingmen it must be apparent
that only their highest good is
sought.
Is solidarity practical? Every
labor organization in the coun-
try demonstrates that it is not
a mere theory, that it is not
speculative, that it exists and is
accomplishing good results.
These organizations seek to cu1-
tivate fellowship and to estab-
lish fraternal obligations; to
bring their members into active
sympathy with each other, Gre
ating bonds of union promotive
of their welfare; hence, solidarity
is not Authorization. We see
it in operation on every hand.
This being true, I make the point
that it is possible to bring all
organizations OF workingmen
into one household of faith.
What obstacles are there in the
way that may not be overcome

The wool which was imported from
the United Kingdom was not, of course,
very largely the product of of the Brit
ish Isles IL was mostly South Ameri
can and Australian wool. imported by
way of English ports, and paying trib-
ute. in the way of freight and profits,
to our English cousins.
American flocllmasters have not only
had their market invaded by increased
impWtations under the free trade
policy of the Democracy and the Wilson
bill, but they have suffered in the
price of their product. The wool
schedule of the Mckinley law went
into effect Oct 6, 1890, and the New
York prices of the different grades of
wool in that month were; fine 33 cents
per pound, medium 81, and course 81
cents. In October 1895, under the in
fluence of the Wilson tariff law and
increased importations, the prices
were; fine 1874, medium 21 \, coarse %.
Here is another point. In 1854,
under duty OF l219 cents per pound
on wool, there were $1,000, 900 sheep
ON the farms and ranches of this coun-
try. In lsss, under tariff of 10 cents
per pound, the number had fallen to
fl 800. 900. In 1898, under the McKin-
ley tariff of IL cents per pound they
had increased to A., 300 900. On the
first of January 1896, under the free
wool clause of the Wilson tariff, they
had fallen TO Is, 100000.
Do the wool growers of Michigan
want another four years of the vii
son tariff law, or do they want a re-
turn To the system Of protection for
wool?
The platform on which Bryan and
Sewall are running for President and
vice-president declares against any
change in this tariff The platform
on which Mckinley and Hobart are
running declares in favor of a return
TO the protection system.
Which will YOU have?

- why no effort was made To insert "a

the failure Of this measure in the Fifty
third congress Speaker Crisp said in
the hearing Ola Michigan congressman,
we shall have the west with us the
next tine we maze the attempt. The
people in the west want free silver
coinage. They will not get it unless

form. but it is in the plan. Even If the
Democrats carry the day the west can
not pass "A free coinage law without
the aid OF the south. And the repeal
Of the state bank tax will be the price
which it will have TO pay.
The platform upon which NJ. Bryan
was nominated proposes To take from
the national banks the privilege of IS
Wing circulating notes, reserving that
lower exclusively To the government.
But the national bank notes are inf
nitely better than the state bank cur
rency that existed before the national
banks were established. Then the

500 in state bank currency at the be-
ginning of the week he might find,
when his bank note detector came at
the end OF the week, that the currency
was not worth SIS. 1t is a revival Of
this system that the south wants, and
the demand will be made that this
system and free silver coinage go to-
gether. They are fit companions, A
