was not ut all the intended one.

The contest over the count
at the ballot box in the South
is, you think, very simple
matter. Soldiers guarding poll
ing places doesn't mean any,
thing, does it? Justa skirmish
on the part of those hot-headed
southerners, eh? Maybe So! It
doesn't foretell a coming storm,
a volcanic eruption? It doesn't
indicate the state of affairs in
this American republic?

twelve men should have been
given the opportunity to render
a verdict.

Prior to the war of the rebel
lion, when corporations and
capitalistic syndicates were un-
known, the workers owned 6213
and the non-producers only
3713 per cent of our country's
wealth, but since the war an
era of corporation rule has been
allowed, and as a result the
census of 1890 credits to the
workers only II per cent and
gives the non-producers 50 per
cent of our entire wealth. In a
period of forty years capital has
gained and labor lost 1919 per
cent of the wealth in the L nited
States.

Right, truth and justice
harms no man. Boycott the
man who dares to stand up for
right; get fighting angry when
a mistake occurs; expect every
body to do just right except
yourself; stop your paper-or
don't subscribe - because it
don't agree with your ideas; do
all you can to stop advance
ment, unless you are at the
head; sneak around and stab
man in the back and attack him
when he is absent; believe
nothing good about any man,
woman, or child, God, nature
nor anything but your own self
and you will go down deeper in
moral degradation than will
those whom you seek to de-
stroy. Scheme, lie, caucus,
lobby, use political influence
and be everyt hing and anything
to get position and honor and
you will never succeed.

SAW Hill GO BY
Great Crowds Along the Route
of Candidate Bryan
in Iowa.
SPOKE to an Immense Audience
in the Sioux City Union
Depot.
An Enthusiastic Reception That
Seemed to Please Him. AT
MarshalltOWn.

Sioux CITY, It., Oct lO.-William J.
Eryan arrived in Sioux City from Mar
shalltown at 10 20 a. m, one hour be-
hind schedule time. The fact that the
train was late was caused by the nu-
merous demands of the people at the
stations along the line to see TIE presi-
dental candidate
Mr.. Bryan arose about I o'clock, but
nearly all night crowds gathered at the
stations to see the train pass through
and if possible to see the candidate. At
some of the stations where the train
stopped, the people went so far as to
put their heads in the windows and
cheer Mr.. Bryan.
At Onawa, in Monona county, large
crowd had gathered. The train stopped
for about 10 minutes, and Mr.. Bryan
went out on the rear platform and ad-
dressed the people. 1t was bitterly cold
and strong south wind blew directly
into the speakers face. The people
went wild with delight.
When the train arrived in Sioux City
the candidate was greeted by a large
crowd at the depot, aud he was escorted
TO the large train shed Of the Union
depot, where he spoke for 30 minutes to
an immense crowd. 1t was an enthu-
siastic reception and seemed to please
Mr.. Bryan After the speech he was
driven d...ctly TO the Milwaukee de-
pot. where special train was waiting
to take the party to Sioux Falls.

MT. Eryan Was Greeted by Large Crowds
at NJ Marshalltown.
MARSHALLTOwN, 1a., Oct. lO.-Mr.
Eryan's first day in the Northwest was
brought to close in this city, where he
adj essed two large audiences. His
first speech was made in a large tent
erected in public square in the center
of the city and the second in the Odeon
theater Big crowds greeted him at
both meetings, and the enthusiasm was
the most marked of the day. In his
first speech the nominee spoke but
briefly, reviewing his principal argu-
ments against the gold standard, and
covering practically the same ground as
in his day talks. In the course of his
address at the theater he said:
believe that you have met as members
of the silver clubs of the state Of Iowa,
and desire to speak to you very briefly as
members of those clubs. We have to de-
pend largely on clubs to carry this cleo
ton. think the club Is of more impor-
portance in this campaign than it has been
in recent years. The silver clubs must do
much upon our side to offset the club that
employers hold over their employees.
1t was 10 o'clock when Mr.. Bryan
concluded and he was then conducted
to his car, where he soon afterwards
retired for the night. Shortly after
o'clock the party left for Sioux City.

MALAGA, Oct. 1O.-The Spanish mer-
chant steamer Seville, which arrived
here from French Mediterranean ports,
reports that the French bark Corinthe,
while becalmed recently near the is
land of Alhucemas, the Spanish prison
settlement off the coast Of Morocco,
was attacked by armed Moors i'll boats
The pirates bound the crew of the bark
and afterwards pillaged her. The crew
of the Seville succeeded in rescuing
one of the crew of the Corinthe, and
captured one boat load of Moors. When
the Seville approached the Corinthe the
pirates opened fire upon her, killing
two men and wounding four Of the
Spanish ships crew, and eventually
compelled her to retire.
A Spanish gunboat has been sent to
Morocco with instructions to demand
the release of the prisoners and the pay
ment of an indemnity. The outrage
took place in Spanish waters.

to see Maj. Mckinley. They formed an
enthusiast crowd, and added much to
the volume of cheers with which the
city has been echoing all day. The
crowd is composed principally of farm.
ers, but business men, mechanics and
all other classes Of citizens were repre-.
sented. Maj. A. w. Roam introduced

Big Registration in st. Louis.

ST. LOUIS. Oct. l0.-That the people
of St. Louis are unusually interested in
the political issues of the day cannot be
questioned. On the first day of regis
tration over $4,000 voters registered.
This is marvellous, when it is known
that the total vote of St. Louis i'll 1892
was only little over $4,000. The elec-
ton commissioners believe the total reg
istration this year will be over 100, 900.
