this campaign is not confined to the
syndicates. trusts, corpora tions and
capitalists ON this side of the Atlantic.
An American of character, writing
from abroad, says:
Il have seen subscription that has
been opened at Monroe * Co.'S. bank
ers, Paris, for what is called the hon
est money campaign fund. which
means that money is being collected in
Europe to influence the American elec-
tions. | have seen an appeal for this
fund put up in the following language:
THE main point is TO realize your
danger and to subscribe quickly and
literally. Remember that only sixty
days remain in which earnest work can
be done
With bond syndicates and railroads
and pools and trusts and corporations
of all sorts to draw on at home, even
the political daughter of the horse leech
might be satisfied without going
abroad. But Mckinley is to he elected
if money can do it.-San Francisco

Mceker, Colo, Citizens.


Meeker (Colo.) special: One of tho
most desperate battles was fought on the
| streets of this town between men who
robbed the bank of Meeker and citizens,
and three robbers lie on cooling boards
in ;he morgue and three citizens were
wounded by the thieves before they bit
the dust. The dead are: George Harris,
Charles Jones and William Smith. The
robbers entered the town from the north
mounted, and proceeded TO the bank with
out any attempt at concealment of them
selves. The bank is located III general
store, one of the largest Of the trading
houses in this section of the country.
They stepped quickly into The room, two
of them remaining in the center of the
apartment while one of them approached
the bank window. where the cashier was
engaged in conversation with depoSitOr,
and brushing him aside thrust a revolver
In his face. The man dodoed and the
sound of pistol shot caused the cashier
i'll the center OF the store COM
manded everybody to hold up their
hands or die. Nobody wanted 20 die.
Cashier Moulton opened the doors of the
safe at the point of The revolver, and the
contents Of the strong box were removed,
after which the robbers took all the fire
arms in the possession of the men in the
store and then forced them 10 leave by
rear door. When they stepped through
the door it was TO find that the building
had been surrounded by the townspeople,
who were aroused by the shots, and the
alternative of surrendering or fighting it
out was presented TO them.
About 100 shCts were fired and three
men fell to the ground. The robbers fell,
defiant and firing. Two Of them died in an
instant, their skulls split, their hearts
pierced, and their bodies penetrated by
rifle balls. One of the men, who gave his

ErYnn and the Women.

The women of the United States are
for Bryan. They admire his honesty
his fearlessness, his ability. At all
the Bryan meetings the American wo-
| men have testified their admirat ton for
the brilliant and brave candidate for
free silver. They have espoused his
cause because they understand that the
country needs more money, and that
free silver Will restore business. set the
mills going, and give to all money to
buy bread and clothes for themselves
and their families. Women are very
determined in their opinions, and when

their. whole heart and soul. They be

upon having won the women to his
cause. and we call upon them TO enter

They Are Scared.


In connection with a description of
the remarkable demonstration on the
occasion of Bryan's visit the Philadel-
phia correspondent of the Boston Globe
let some significant facts escape.
The correspondent says that old
newspaper men and politicians who
have seen the demonstrations in Phila-
delphia for years back agree that in
numbers and enthusiasm the Bryan
demonstration surpassed them all.
There We're 5000 in the Academy of
Music and 1900 in the street.
AS corollary to this evidence of the
popularity of Bryan, he affirms that he
has it from the highest Republican au-
thority that it is the intention OF the
Republican managers of the State to
raise a campaign fund of $1,0O0,0OO,
and that the banks that have never be-
fore contributed cent to politics are
making large contributions. In. fact,
he asserts that the banks are assessing
themselves fixed amounts based upon
the amount of their deposits.

Intense Suffering

A private letter received i'll San Fran
cisco contains particulars of the damage
caused by floods in the mountain districts
adjacent to Rawlings, Mexico, during the
early part Of September. Over S100,0
worth Of agricultural and mining property
was ruined, and great distress prevails
among the farmers and miners who lost
all their live stock and effects. The ma
chinery of the San Antonio, san Vincent
and Baris gold and silver mines was car
ried away entailing a loss of sS0,0O0 to
these companies there.

They Can Turn the Scale.

A circular is now being distributed by
the Railway Age. 1t is handed to the
empioye by n regularly authorized
agent of the road. and, among other
things it says: AT every shop and ev-
cry division point on every railway in
the country there must be n Railway
Mems Sound Money Club. There Is no
State in the Union in which, if you vote
as Il unit, you cannot turn the scale in
any ordinary election"
1t seems from this that there are
three great parties-the Republican, the
Democratic and the Railroad. This con-
dition of affairs will last probably for
some years. but not a day longer than
the people realize 1t and assert their
power of eminent domain. Govern
ment ownership of railroads may not be
a good thing--it may SAVIOR too strongly
OF state socialiSm-but it is better. far
better. than railroad ownership of the
overnment-Chicago Dispatch.
