ting on the Right Track.
We congratulate our readers that
the people are at last moving. The
Outrages committed by Mr.. Cleve
land and only condemned in Pick
wickian way by republican leaders
are doing their work. The people
are beginning to see that the rule of
gold monopoly means stagnation,
want, misery, and the loss of liberty,
and that they must unite or the
money power will destroy them.
They begin to see that the govern
ment of the United States is in the
hands of gold gamblers, stock job
bers and swindlers, and that the
money powers and the banks have
control of the commercial press and
telegraph and of the leading poll
ticians of the two old parties. They
have been a long time learning that
their trusted leaders have betrayed
them. There is every evidence that
all who are opposed to the English
gold standard as administered by
the stock jobbers of Wall and Lom-
bard streets will unite in the cam
paign of 1896 on some platform
which shall be in favor of financial,
political and commercial indepen-
dence, on a platform which will be
a new Declaration of Independence.
The people now see that they must
be serfs and feudal slaves if they
allow Wall and Lombard streets to
continue to rob them of their
property.
Self preservation, love of liberty
and patriotism are sentiments
common to the Populist party,
common to the great mass of the
two old parties, common to all who
are not either the active agents or
the dupes of gold monopoly, com
mon to every citizen of the United
States who loves his country and
desires to perpetuate the free insti-
tutions ordained by the fathers.
The politicians of the two old
parties have lost their power to
divide and conquer. They have lost
their power to make the friends of
financial reform quarrel about non
essentials. They have lost their
power to pack the conventions of
the opposition. They have lost
their power to disintegrate the
army of freedom by emiSsaries
whom they employ. In 1896 gold
monopoly will be tried in the bal
anee and found wanting, and the
people will rescue their government
rom the heartless intriguers, spec
ulators and .jugglers who have con-
trolled it for many years.-Silver
Knight.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1896-02-21

Men can produce all tnaG human
needs require without the use of
gold. 1t does not help the farmer
till his soil or harvest his crops; 1t
does not aid the railways or steam
boats in the distribution of COM
modities. 1t is not one OF the
materials that enter into use in fac
tories and mills to any important
extent. Why is it, then, that the
prosperity of the world, the price
of all sorts of commodities, includ-
ing labor, the joy in millions of
households, should seem to be so
absurdly and fatally dependent on
the possession of this metal that we
call gold? If tomorrow some sort
of gas should be let loose in the
atmosphere of the world that with
in "a hours dissolved all the gold
above ground or below it, many
people would have to get new
filings in this teeth, many watches
would need new cases, many
precious stones would have to be
reset, and some bank reserves
would have to be replenished. But
the production of wealth, its dis
tribution, and its enjoyment would
not to any very appreciable degree
| be interferred with.
The worship of the Golden Calf
is a superstition. The idea that we
can not devise any means of ex-
changing our commodities one with
another except as this sacred calf
presides over the transaction, is a
wild delusion. If we want a "stan-
dard of values" what is less salts
factory than a metal whose produc-
ton depends so largely upon blind,
laundering chance? If we want a
a ''medium of exchange" what is
less convenient than this heavy and
abrasable yellow stuff? The fact
that the destinies of the whole civ
ilized world are so linked to this
beautiful but not particularly use
full substance, is one of the most
stupendous absurdities. That we
two-legged microbes runningaround
on the surface on the earth can in
vent telegraphs and telephones, can
harness Niagara to a trolley car,
can tunnel mountains, cross the
oceans, predict eclipses, photograph
the mountains of the moon, draw
diagrams of the bacilli in our blood,
turn rocks into mineral wool and
arid deserts into truck gardens
that we can do all these things but
are unable to devise any method
for releasing ourselves from thral
dom to the Golden Calf in our ex-
change of the products of labor is
unbelievable.-The Voice.

The Golden Calf.

The bond sale is over. 1t was,
we are told, a great success. The
government has gloriously demon
strated its ability, not to pay its
debts, oh no, but to get deeper in
debt. Now that this brilliant feat
is over, is it not about time to ask
ourselves whether the worlds pros
perity, the hopes of civilization, the
prospects of future happiness ara
to be forever and forevermore tied
TO the tail of the golden chariot!

Useful Recipes.

Useful Recipes.
BATTER PUDDING.-Sift a quart
of flour; add half a cupful oflnelted
butter, teaspoontul of salt, seven
well beaten eggs, a teaspoonfnl of
soda and two of cream of tartar,
with sufficient sweet milk to make
a thick batter; turn into creased
mould; bake in very hot oven,
and serve with rich pudding sauce.
SUGAR GINGERBREAD.-Onee egg,
one cupful of sugar, half a cupful
of milk, one third cupful of butter,
two cupfuls of flour, one teaspoon
full each of ginger and cream tartar,
and one half teaspoonful of soda;
mix and bake in well heated oven.
BoUILLoN.-S pounds of beef
and bone. Cut the meat and break
the bones. Add two quarts of cold
water. Simmer slowly five hours.
Strain through a fine sieve, remov
ing every bit of fat. Season with
pepper and salt.
Pop OvERs.-Beat two eggs
without separating until thoroughly
mixed, but not very light, then
add half pint of milk and quarter
ola teaspoonful of salt. Put one
cup of flour into another bowl and
add gradually to it the milk and
eggs; beat until smooth and then
strain. Have ready greas, d gem
pans well heated, fill two-t thirds full
with this mixture and bake in a
moderately quick oven for about
thirty five minutes. DO not add
baking powder or yeast.
Corn BALLs.-;5;ift thoroughly
two and one-half heaping table
spoonfuls of yellow corn meal, TIVE
heaping tablespoonful of flour, one
tablespoonful of sugar, one salt
spoonful of salt, and one teaspoon
full of baking powder. Beat one
egg and adj 10 the dry mixture,
with enough mI,k to make a drop
batter. Stir i'll quickly one-halt
teaspOonful of melted butter. Beat
well and drop by teaspoonfuls into
smoking hot lard.
STEwED CHICKEN WITH LIGHT
DUMPLINGs.-This is most con
veniently prepal ed on the regular
baking day, when some Of the ligl t
bread dough can be- used for tie
dumplings without extra trouble.
Dress, joint and stew a chicken as
is ordinarily done, having an abund-
ance of liquor in the kettle. Have
ready some light bread dough pre-
pared and nodded out as for ordinary
sized light rolls or light biscuits.
When light enough for the oven
and about 20 minutes before the
meal is to be served, carefully sepa-
rate each biscuit and drop them,
one at time, into the boiling
chicken, cover closely and do not
lift the cover for 20 minutes, by |
which time they will be done if
cooked over steady fire and will
be found to have risen to about
three times the size they were
when put into the pot, and to be as
light as it is possible for dumping
to be. Indeed if the kettle is kept |
closely covered, it is impossible for
them not to he light, and being
made from light dough they are
more easily digested than any other
dumplings.
