Among the other substantial things
to eat was boiled ham, which as
laid away till wanted on table at a
convenient place in the kitchen.
Someone who had better nose than
heart smel!ed the ham f,om the out
side and reached through window

pork. Who the tllief is Heck would
ike TO know.
The Sewall Democratic Convention
at Chicago complained about the
mortgages on western farms, but the
truth is the eastern state farmers are
carrying heavier percentage Of
mortgages than the western farmers.
Ifthere is any complaints to make, it
IS the eastern farmers. Here their
lands are assessed at a high valua-
ton. and their taxes are high, and
they can get but fraction more for
their grain than the western farmer
gets for his grain that he raised on
low priced land, and he can ship his
grain to the railroad and foreign
countries for the same price per hun
dred that tie eastern man pays. If
there is bowling to be done it should
be the eastern mau and not the west.

People, that is some people IN this
world are hard to please Indeed
they ace determined no. to be pleas
ed with anything and anyone, and
they seem to be IN chronic state OF
criticism of their neighbors. II their
neighbors who can afford to have
their work done, employ people to
work for them. they are denounced
As being stuck up and ley. II they
do their own work, they are called
stiagy. II they are quiet people and
10 not take part il the general meet
insa and parties, they are called self,
ish. If they 90 TO everything that is
going on, they are denounced as
wanting to make themselves popular.
Ii they don't contribute to everyone
that solicits aid, they are dencunccd
as being misery. II they give to
everything that comes along, they
are compared to the fool and his NOR
ey that are soon parted. If they go
to church, they are hypocritical, and
if they don't go to church they are
unbelievers. The chronic critic has
Il hard time in this world. What will
he have in the next
1t was the repeal of the protective
tariff that cut down the income of
the government below its expenses,
aud the tariff will have to be increas
ed or the pensions cut down to meet
the expenses of government.
Reader, which will you vote for: II
you vote for the Republican party,
and if it comes into power, and it
will-she tariff will be increased and
an income sufficiently large TO run
the government will be obtaine d. IF
you vote the Democratic ticket, the
tariff will be still further reducedand |
and the income will be less than it ia
now, and tie pensions will be cut off !
to make up for the loss of income. If
you have any friends in the west who |
are falling down and worshiping the
false gods nominated, write to them |
and tell them what will happen if the
Bryan and Sswall ticket be elected. |
If you help to defeat the Republican
ticket and the day OF adversely comes
upon you by withdrawal of your
pension, you need not come around
to Republicans to ask them to turn in
and labor that the pensions be not
knocked off.
