SENSIBLE VIEWS.
HOW TO INSURE A VICTORY.

f. ]. Ripley writes from Home,
Tenn, to the Farmers Tribune, of
Des Moines, Iowa, a very sensible let
ter from which we make some ex-
tracts.
Silver Democrats and Republicans,
silver knights, Populists, Alliance
men, temperance and Woman Suffra-
gist people, Knights Of Labor and
trade unions, neither one alone can
elect national ticket, nor majority
to Congress. So long as they act in
dependently they will do nothing and
get nothing. The only chance issto
unite. How unite? There are many
kinds Of union. Set a cat and a saucer
of cream down together and soon you
will find they have united. This
would suit the cat but might not suit
the cream. At any rate union of re-
form forces in which one absorbs the
others and gets all the Offices, won't
work and there is no use trying it,.
Again, two rivers unite and flow on as
one stream. Or two or more SUBJ
stances in the laboratory unite and
you have compound altogether diff
ferent in qualities from the elements
composing it.
You can't unite reform forces in
either one of these ways. Again, the
different divisions Of an army unite by
coming within supporting distance
and cooperating against the common
enemy, acting as one army under one
leader for one purpose on that partic-
ular field. This is the only kind of ef-
fective union we can have between re-
form forces.
The common purpose is to oust that
crowd at Washington who have been
persistently legislating against the
interests Of the common people We
| want to replace both the nation al
ticket and congressman with some
| thing better. The enemy will have
| out national tickets and tickets in
every congressional district, and state
legis ature where there is a senator to
be made. The purpose of our union
army is to defeat those men. To do it
our army must cooperate as a unit.
1t must support the same candidates
everywhere. They must agree as to a
national ticket and agree as to con-
greSSiOnal nominations, and then sup
port them regardless of any minor diff
ferences Of opinion.
To agree on a national ticket is to
| agree to support two men. These
two men can't possibly embody all the
issues Of all the reform organiz-
ations. But they can embody
all the reform principles in
which all reform organizations are
| agreed, and these principle are all
that should be in the union platform
The issues. outside this must content
themselves with representation in
Congress, and fair division of pie
after the election. The national
ticket, however, can pledge itself to
not veto any reform measure, and to
encourage the referendum Of certain
measures to direct vote.
Each reform organization in the
"union' should have congressional
nominations according to the voters
supposed to be represented, and these
nominations must be placed with ref
erence to success. This line OF policy
would necessitate a national commit.
tee on nominations made up fairly
from all the parties to the union"
with sufficient power to carry the
policy out: This committee to be

A MILLIONAIRE'S OPINION OF MIL
IIONAIRETSM

We publish the following interview
with Mayor Sutro the Populist mayor of
San Francisco, first published in the New
York Recorder and later in the ST. Louis
Republic from which we take it. AL
though the aged mayor is a many-times
millionaire. yet he has not allowed his
vast wealth to blind him toward the dam
gerous tendencies of aggregated wealth
so far as the masses and the good of the
country is cOncerned:
Effort" says he. sis the only source
of happiness. 1t is not my intention to
leave all my wealth to my children-the
people shall benefit by my effort as far
as I am able to confer that benefit. and
shall leave as legacy to those of my
own family an incentive to the effort
which I contend is the source of happi-
ness. do not believe that man with a
full competence which precludes the ne
cessity of honest effort constantly applied
is able to enjoy the rational pleasures of
this life. The power to concentrate wealth
is a menace to the country. 1t is the root
of corruption that is sapping the foun-
dation of our government. Millionaires,
syndicates and corporations are. impover-
ishing the people and the nation. They
call me a radical--a socialist Perhaps
am, but l am not a fool, and l refuse to
believe the sophistry Of corporation ad-
vocateS contrary to the plain facts of my
personal observation. Our political sys-
tenn is all wrong, and our social system
is even worse The founders of this re-
public gave us the best constitution ever
devised. but we have drifted away from
the principles enunciated by Jefferson.
Hancock and the signers of the Declarar
tion Of Independence.
"Corporatons and the money power
own this country. and the people are
steadily being reduced to condition of
abject slavery. If l had my way I would
compel every man of wealth and every
to contribute to fund for
the employment of the workingmen.
would tax them. not only in proportion
to their wealth, but in sufficient amount
to provide labor for every man willing to
work. We are al more or less dependent
upon one another. and we are bound. in
common humanity, to assist one another.
If we refuse this, we should be compelled
to do so. I am in favor of a public fund
to provide work for laboring men, and
am in favor of taxing the rich to provide
the fund"

CONFIDENCE RETURNING.
The Condition of Trade Shows Some En-
couIaging..Features


couraging--Features.
New York, Dec. l.-R. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review OF trade tomorrow will
say:
The classified failures for November
show Il gratifying reduction compared
with October and are especially important
as showing that the peculiar disturbance
during the Presidential campaign, which
swclled failures $4,000 900 in August
and September, did not prevent quick
return to II monthly aggregate scarcely
greater than That OF May
Ground for confidence is also found in
the abandonment of two of the largest
combinations by which the iron industry
has heen retarded, and the possibility
that two others will he abandoned Such
a state of things within month after
the election suggests that these organiza-
tions, formed when depressed business
failed to support all the works in exist
ence, are not expected to survive II gen
eral revival and ample demands for pro-
duets. The immediate effect of breaking
prices is to check large buying of iron
and steel products, but it will soon be
seen about where prices are to range.
In the COTTON manufacture there is lit
tie change, though goods are selling bet
ter. but with many added works produc-
tlon exceeds present demand. The mar
ket for raw cotton is weak, with middling
uplands an eighth lower. with over
400, 900 bales in sight by December /,
when the crop is usually about half in
sight, current estimates would leave only
$500, 900 more to come forward in nine
months and the lar0er consumption in
mills does not advance prices. Other pro
duce markets have been weaker
Failures for the week have been $40 in
the United States against 1924 last year
and 90 in Canada against 80 last year

IN HIGH FAVOR
London Papers Will Take Public Sub
scriptions TO Get Bayar.i II Present


scriptons to Get Bayard Present.
London, Dec. 5.-The Chronicle this
morning discusses the proposal of the
Daily Telegraph to take public subscrip-
ton for Il farewell Christmas gift to Mr..
Bayard, the United States ambassador.
The Chronicle, while admitting the Daily
Telegraph : generous motive declares:
The proposal is improper, because an
Ambassador represents the sovereign and
what is done to Mr.. Baynrd is done to
Mr.. Cleveland. Further, one of the
strictest regulations of the diplomatic
rules forbids the acceptance of presents.
The mere idea would bring cold sweat
to the brow of the most deserving diplo-
MAJ. We are confident that Mr.. Bavard
wiiLnot lend himself to such a proposal
and there is no doubt that the Americans
will laugh ut the idea of journalistic adj
vertisment, to say nothing OF the renec-
ton that such II suggestion sayors of a
payment of an official for exceeding his
duties.
LET us in the familiar Anglo.Saxon
way give him n dinner. The most distin-
guished gathering we are able to furnish
would be II greater compliment than a
subscription placing him on Il par with
Il popular cricketern

prints letters for the workingmen's and
trades societies approving of the sugees.

All Wires Down.
Norfolk. Dec. l.-Norfolk was cut on
from the outside world by the severe blix-
zard which struck this vicinity on We'd
nesday evening. Transportation was de
laycd in every way from one to nine
hours. There are ut least 100 telegraph
poles down along the Norfolk and Vest
ern railroad between this city and Su FOLK,
II distance of only twenty miles. All the
telephone, telegraph, trolley and electric
light wires are down in the city and pc.
destrians have TO he very cautious on nc
count of live wires in the streets.
Thus far no deaths have been caused by
the severe blow. Snow is on the ground
in some streets ut least twelve inches
deep. No wires are in working order to
the coast and no marine news is obtaina-
BILE. This is the worst layout the tele-
graph and telephone companies have eX-
perienced since 1880. There is not sin.
gle wire running out of the city. The
damage to property is enormous.
