came in and asked TO see his

each one as it was spread before
her, but neither by word or sign
gave indication Of whether they
suited, until after hours work
in displaying the entire stock,
the clerk informsn her he had
no more. "Well," she said 81

itself. The present administra-
iton is following the same line
.of conduct towards its oppress-
ed people that Pharoah practiced
upon the prosecuted lsrailites.
When Moses complained to him
of the hard labor his people
mere subjected to in making
brick without proper renumera
tion, the king got wroth, and
instead of granting their re
quest, doubled their labor by
requiring them to make the
brick without straw.
So it is with our rulers and
law makers today. A great
wall has gone up from the
masses of this country, whose
choes of misery, waited from
the snow capped mountains of
the great north west--from the
lazy lagoons and pebly shores
of our southern coast, are re
verberated night and day
throughout every nook and corr
ner Of the capital at Washing
ton. But, "the powers that be''
have hardened their hearts
deadened their hearing, and
pay no attention TO the "still
small voice" that might save
the country from misery and
themselves from infamy.
Our cry for help has made
them mad. They have farther
reduced the circulation and per
petuated the slavery of our
selves and our children by more
bonds-mortgages upon proper
ty and our liberty-made to
make more brick and furnish
our own straw without renu
meration for either brick or
straw. 1t takes no Joseph te
interpret their end, nor the time
when an avenging nemesis will
even up with them.
