You can fool all of the people some
Of the time. you can fool some of the
people all of the time. but you cannot
fool all of the people all of the time.
We are again forcibly reminded o.
this truth by the appeals for popular
contributions of money to the Bryan
campaign fund. Donations are asked
from wagc-workers and people of small
means TO counteract what is called the
"plutocratic Doodle fund" which the re
publicaus are charged with distributing
for the election of Mckinley.
These appeals. designed to arouse tbs
sympathy of the masses, were begun
within forty-cight hours after Bryan's
nomination by the silverites by Banker
st. John of Wall street, who is masquer.
aiding as n great friend of the toilers.
when in fact ne is the money changer
and Doodle dSbwISer of the silver
bullionaires. 1t is a matter of common
notoricty that the silver trust is now
holding GO,000O00 ounces of silver for
speculative purposes. \ rise of only 10
cents an ounce would mean for ii u
profit of S6.000,000. And yet the poor
wage-workcrs of the country are being
importuncd to contribute their mites to
help out the silver trust under the pre-
text that there is not Il dollar in sight
10 dcfray the Legitimate" expenses Of
the Bryan campaign. In this respect
the appeal for the peoples mite affords
only another proof of the campaign of
duplicity, deception and imposturc
which is being wagcd by Bryan and
his plutocratic hackers.
According to the World Herald, the
peoples mite to the Bryan campaign
fund in Nebraska so far amounts to
about $50 all told and yet thousands
Of dollars have already been paid out
by the Bryan managers in this city and
county alone. They have paid 5000 cash
| in advance for the rental of Boyd's
thcater for six nights and they have
paid ont more than double that amount
for other halls. They have paid out
| hundreds of dollars for workers and
| literature prepared and printed in this
| city. Where did this money come from? ?
| Surely not from wage-workerS or local
| candidates. 1t is an open secret that
| this Doodle has been generously fur
nished by silver bullion owners and
mining stock jObbers.
The appeal for the peoples mite is
| only an appeal to credulity. The
peoples mite certainly has not paid for
Mr.. Bryan's special railroad trains and
special ears. 1t has not paid for the
| forty eight halls which have been rented
in Chicago for Bryan for the remainder
of the campaign. 1t has not paid for the
paid silver orators and subsidized
silver organs. The parties who have
contributed the money for the $4,000
of stock which Bryan owns in the
Omaha World Herald are doubtless the
ones who are contributing the biggest
mites to the Bryan campaign fund.

THE GOSPEL OF HATE.
Desperate and DespicabIe Expedients
OF the Free Silvcritcs.
Chicago TImes-HcraId.

Chicago Times Herald.
The attempt that is being made by Bryan
and Altgeld to array the employees OF thC
land against their employers is the last re-
sort of desperate men.
What kind of a cause is II that requires
for its support the antagonsm OF people
who are engaged in common industry upon
the success of which they all depend for
their livelihood?
Take any manufacturing establishment
and examine its working. First there Is
the capital that establishes the plant. The
men who have this money put 1t into tho
business that they may make more. To
some extent at least their venture is UNI
certain. but they take the risk. They hire
agents. statesmen, clerks, and workingmen
and become responsible for their wages
They start the wheels in motion. and from
the lowest errand boy in the concern through
all the grades OF workmen up to the con-
trolling mind that dominates the whole

common interest in the success of the enter.
prise, fer upon its success depends their
living II the head Is crippled. II the capt.
tai is impaired or lost. the owners are not
the only ones that suffer. TIE whole body
OF employees suffer.
With such a common interest why, then
should there be antagonism between he en-.
ployer and those whom he employs? How
do their interests differ? And yet 1t IS the
constant theme OF these leaders uf d'scon-
tent these fomenters OF strife. that The
workingInen should be at enmty win those
who give them work, and that whatever
public policy the employer would promote as
conducive to the welfare OF his business the
workmen should vote against for tbat very
reason!
Is 1t not astonishing that men can be
found who Will reason In this way? Can 1t
be that there are honest workingms1 who
believe that their Interests are different from
their employers?

veopment Of the beet sugar industry will
make this one OF the richest states Of tho
union. In order TO build up this Industry
bounty law must be maintained for num-
her OF years until the industry is fully de-
veloped. A republican legislature will do
this. Populist legislatures have been against
tho sugar bounty. Which will you have?
Norfolk News: A democratic congress

him from undertaking the arduous duties
OF the presidency and allow him to como
back to Lincoln and trim up his lawn.
Grand Island Independent: There are
many sections of Nebraska and the west
looking with anxiety toward the sugar in

our fair state in the front rank as a sugar
producer. Nor will they be disappointed.
The high degree OF success which has al

The hope that such will not be the

There were 100 delegates to the Interna-
tional Typographical union convention a.
Colorado Springs a poll of the delegates
revealed $50 for Bryan and one for Nc
tinley. And most of these men are printer
rorsing on gold organs -World-H Herald.
This Is only another one of the hun
drcds of brazen fakes that have ema-
mated from the Bryanite press. The
International Typographical union is
composed Of delegates from The printers
unions of the United States and Canada.
Even if every delegate from the United
States had been for Bryan it does not
stand to reason that the delegates from
the Dominion, including those from
ontario, Quebec. New Brunswick and
British Columbia. were unanimous for
Bryan. AS a matter of fact. the Colo
ado papers, which are decidedly partial
to the silver candidate, report only 60
per cent of the delegates favoring Che

Bryan has no better foundation than all
the other claims which are being made
for him to bolster his candidacy. Take

much of division on presidential
preferences as there is among union

THE BITTER FRIEND or LAB0R

THE BETTER FRIEND or LABOR.
That was most pertinent question
which Major Mckinley addressed to
worklngmen in one Of his speeches on
Saturday when he said: 81 submit t.
you, men of toll and all around and
about mo, who Is the better friend Of
labor, he who gives you work that
brings contentment, or he who breathcs
only words that create discontpnt?" No
Intelligent and unprecedented working
man can hesitate an instant for an
answer TO this question. The repub-
lcan standard bearer followed 1t by
saying that there ought never TO BE-
any enmlty between labor and capital.
because the interest of one Is the in
terost of the other. What fair-mindcd
wage worker will not acquiesce in this?
Harmonious relations between capital
and labor-between employers ana EN-.
ployed-upon just basis of mutual
benefits, always tend to the prosperity
of both. Dlstrust or hostility on either
side is harmful to both Every intel
ligent man knows that capital Is value
less without labor, while on the other
hand labor is helped by the active use
of capital. This makes their interests
mutual and reciprocal.
There has never before been pollt,
zeal campaign in this country in which
one of the parties endeayored so per
sistently and strenuously to array the
working classes against employers as
the popoeratic party Is now doing.

How Free silver Would Affect tho
Clergy md Religious Institutions.

There are In this country nearly 1l2, 900
Clcrgymen in the various religious COM
munions. including lboth Protestant and
Roman Catholic. These men are intrusted
with vast responsibility. The churches
which they represent have chosen them as
their standard-bearers in the occupation of
their pulpits. the management of their mis-
sionary and other great charities. and.
with rare exceptions, the editorial conduct

tional educational institutions Of the United
States are in the hands OF the clergy, the
men being placed In these important posi-
lions because of the confidence OF the
churches in the ability and character OF the
lncumbents.
All these people live on fixed salaries.
When one of them does not need his salary,
having private resources, the case is not
altered. His office is salaried, and 1t Is

election depends ON the number OF

he should by accident or mishap be
