10 be a very interesting debate in the house

conclusion that such a resolution should

task of wording Il. From the developments
OF the week IL seems possible that the COM

Wants to Impeach the President.
1.-The responsibility of providing revenue
and looking after the solvency of the
treasury, which rests with congress. has
been usurped by the president. Why is he
not impeached? The encroachments of the
Federal judiciary and the supineness and
venality-corruption may say-of the rep
resentative branches of the government.
are causes OF deep concern TO all thinking
and patriotic men. We are fast drifting
into government by injunction in the inter-
ests of monopolies and corporations, and
the supreme court, by one corrupt vote,
annuls an act Of congress looking to the
taxation Of the rich.
The Day of Reckoning Coming.
1.-The struggle from 1861 TO 1865 which
drenehed this fair land in blood, was to
emancipate four million black slaves. We
are fast approaching a condition which
will place the collar OF Industrial bondage
around the neck of ten times that many
white slaves 4 day OF reckoning will
come unless there is no longer just God
in heaven and when it does come, woe TO
those who have been among the oppressors
of the people. The present struggle is. I'M
fortunately, too much like that which pre-
coded the late civil war, inasInuch as 1t Is
sectional. The creditor and the manufact-
uring states of the North and East have
grown inordinately wealthy at the expense
of the producing classes of the South, and
are urging this policy with the besotted
blindness Of BelshaZzar.
1t was easy to see, the senator said IN
conclusion. that the struggle for the new
emancipation has been begun. There were
millions now on the march. and they
tramp, tramp, tramp the sidewalks hunt
ing work and the highways begging bread,
and unless relief comes they will some day
take a notion TO come to Washington City
with rifles In their hands to regain the lib

representatives have sold.
