ard. These things are evidence
of what has all along been said,
that the gold monopoly had the
industries of the gold countries
by the throat, and could make
or break them at their own
sweet will. Could there be
stronger argument than that
for the restoration of silver and
the smashing of the gold cor
ner? Oh, for the spirit of 1915!
We will starve, but we will not
submit.
It the refusal to listen to a lot
of balderdash and getting up
quietly and going out consti-
tutes breaking up a meeting,
then there have been mighty
few gold bug rallies in Duluth
this year that weren't broken
up. The "plutes" want to re-
member that the people 60 to
meetings to hear argument
and they have no time or
patience for anything else. How
mad, though it makes the
Hannaites to see their orators
have to talk to empty benches:
To hear 'em beef one would
suppose that there was an or
ganized gang of toughs getting
around throwing stale eggs at
the speakers, frightening women
into Mysteries, breaking heads
and smashing furniture into
kindling wood. The onl y foun-
dation for it all in fact, is that
the average citizen can't stand
more than about 10 minutes
of their CUFF and Justification,
and out of self respect has to
get up and leave them. Some
of their car barn rallies have lost
more than half their crowd BE-
fore their performance was half
completed.

Political Pointers.

Congressman Towne spoke
at Hibbing Tuesday night. and
a Herald special says: 400 peo-
pie were unable to gain admis-
sion though the meeting was
held in the largest hall in the
town. It is claimed to have
been the largest demonstration
ever seen in Hibbing.
What godsend J. Adam
Bede is to the Hannaitesin this
neck'o woods? But has it CO me
to this, that the brains and
brass of the Minnesota divi
sion of the combination is all
confined to the Cleveland end
of the "sound" money goldo-
cracy?
A French meeting was held
Tuesday evening at Central hall.
Twelfth avenue west. 1tWas are
publican affair, but the audience
didn't like the doctrine and about
200 of them left the hall and held
an open air silver meeting across
the street. Only sixteen or seven
teen were left i'm the hall. Mr..
Bureau addressed the open air
meeting and his remarks were
received with great enthusiasm.
The poor, demoralized, heart
sick "leavins" of the republi-
can party in Minnesota had to
20 outside it's ranks-had to
pass over such brilliant lights
as DR.. Forbes, Judge Morris,
Prof. McCleary, etc., and go
among the ragtag and bob
tail that yet remains of Cleve-
1andism, to find a champion
with the courage to measure
swords against Congressman
Towne at Barnum. Oh, grand
old republican (?) party-party
(?) of Lincoln, Greeley, Sum-
ner and Thad Stevens! How
bitter is the cup of humiliation,
gall, yea wormwood indeed.
Verify thy lines are fallen on
rocky roads.
The news from the ranges is
to the effect that the Chandler
mine at Ely, the Minnesota
mine at Soudan, and the Fayal
and Rathbun mines at Eveleth
will shortly be closed down and
1900 men thrown out of en-
ployment. This is republican
campaign argument. At the

A Peace Monument.

fredericksburg Free Lance)
In considering the question OF turning
the SpOtsylyania county great battle-heids
into mammoth national park. IT might
DO well for those having the matter In
charge also to consider the propriety OF
the erection by the government OF a
peace monument. We can think Of no
monument so appropriate to-day as a
peace monument and no place more APP
propriate for such a monument than
Fredericksburg
Fredericksburg is the starting point and
the finish Of the contemplated national
park. The route would necessarily be
from Fredericksburg TO Salem, Chancel-
lorsville, Wilderness. Mine Road, the
several fields aboa< SpOtsylyanla Court
house and back TO Fredericksburg.
Fredericksburg is midway between, and
on the direct route from Washington, the
capital OF the nation. and Richmond. the
capital OF the Confederacy. and Is easy
OF access from all points OF the country.

MosBY's FAMOUS RANGERS.
Waspa Of War That Kept Federal
Generals Mcnding Fences.

Thirty years, says the Philadelphia
away the false Impressions created during
the war and cherished afterwards as
truth from constant iteration; yet to-day
many people think of Mosby and his
rangers as a sort Of guerilla band infest-
Ing the Virginia mountains, owing ale
glance 20 no one but themselves. living by
occasional foragings against outlying
Yankee posts. holding up trains, cap
turing baggage-Wagons, and, in short,
making war an excuse for pillage and
plumber.
Like many other popular prejudices,
however, il IS wholly incorrect. and The
blood-curdhng roInances of Federal mag
ination must succumb TO the hard facts
contained in the straightforward nara
tive OF MIR. James J. Williamson zone Of
Mosby's mem. entitled "Mosby' 5
Rangers" and published by Ralph b.
Kenyon, Of New York, in which he gives
record of their operations from the
date Of their organization to the time
Of their final disbandng.
Mosby's command was regularly organ
lied and mustered into the Confederate
service on the same footing with other
troops. except that being organized under
the partisan ranger law. an act passed
by the Confederate Congress, they We're
allowed the benefit of the law applying
to maritime prizes. All cattle and mules
were turned over TO the Confederate Gov
eminent, but horses captured We're dis
tributed among the men making the cap
ture
Mosby was a scout; his business was 20
gather information, TO cut of communica-
tons, 70 intercept dispatches. and by de-
stroying supplies IN the rear of advancing
armies TO force men TO be sent back from
the front that the rear might be protect
ed. When the Federal soldiers were
pushing on TO Richmond their lines be-
came more extended, and greater num-
beTs were required TO guard them from
his attacks. In this way Mosby. with a
few horsemen. kept thousands Of men
from active duty in the front. 10 say
nothing OF the damage inflicted by his
constant assaults.
After he had attracted attention by his
daring achievements, men came from all
parts OF the country 10 join him. Officers

TO MRS. HELEN $500:

TO MRS. HELEN p. '''':
on Sharpsburg field the mangled form
OF a dying soldier lay,
Where the thickcst of the battle storm
Had left its wreck that day
One clinched hand a pencil grasped'
One. firm, upon his breast
a crumpled note yet tightly clasped
AS his spirit sank to rvs;.
A generous foe. with cautious tread,
Along the trampled plain,
Sought those amid the crowded dead
He'd never see I'm life again,
When perchance his eyes should meet,
All stained with human gore,
The tightly clasped and soiled sheet
The dying soldier bore.
Tenderly the note was Tossed
Tearfully was read,
The last words OF the soldier
The message Of the dead
To her. whose love had blessed his life,
Whose image was the last
That DER the dying heros gaze,
with life's bright vision passed.
Helen, am dying"
A soldiers death, IT'S true
No thought to my soul is trying,
Save that which turns TO you.
I'm dying for my country.
Her honor and her laws;
IT'S sad TO die and leave you
IT'S sweet in such a cause.
Helen, teach our little one
To love his fathers name
To stand up for his country's rights
To die, II need be. for the same,
For life holds nothing nobler,
Within it's feeble span,
Than 10 bleed and die for Liberty
For Liberty to man.
Never, TIL this hour
Oily soul shall pass from EARTH
Have I known the depth and power
or my love for your worth.
I'm dying Helen-dying,
My heart quails not, but my eye
es dimly. oh. how dimly-
My wife and g0O1-by."
The blood-stained note, by kindly hand,
Was on it's mission borne;
Where in a distant southern land,
She still lives 20 mourn
Who. from its words OF sorrow,
Learned. I'm agony wild.
That war had made q widow
And an orphan child.

JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN.
Famous Liberal Unionist Leader
Now in America.
His Wife, Formerly Miss Endicott, Of
Salem, Mass, Accompanies Him
'JoeE's" Remarkably Lively
Political Record.

Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain and
his American wife are now ''in our
midst, Mrs. Chamberlain, as everybody
knows, was Miss Endicott, of Salem
of the Endicotts, of course.
Everybody in America is always glad
to see Mr.. Chamberlain, says the New
York Herald. His marriage to Miss
Endicott caught the popular favor i'm
mensely, although he is not a nobleman
or broken down, or even the son of a
broken-down nobleman. He was a
middle-aged widower when he married
and the son of very middle-class pro-
vincial family. He had been sin trade
himself-fancy! All the aristocracy in
this case was on the American brides
side.
You wouldn't think it to see him. or
if you can't see him, to see his pictures,
but Mr.. Chamberlain is 60 years old
He was born in London in 1896, and
his father was a city man, actually q
member of a city company.
Josephine is sometimes called Joey
by political enemies-had good school
ing, but he is not university man. He
went into firm of wood screw makers,
Nettlefold g. Chamberlain, when he was
a young man, but % years ago he retired
from business and went into politics.
At this time all his reputation was
founded on the radical ideas he had
expressed with great fiuency at debat-
ing societies in Birmingham. He was
a dreadful radical in those days.
Once in politics, he made swift prog
ress with the birmingham ''rads." He
was alderman one term, and mayor of
the borough three, and then he ran
for parliament lin 1870, and was most
beautifully beaten in a three-cornered
fight. But two years later he had bet
ter luck.
Since then "Joey" has been pretty
constantly in the public eye. He has
advocated all sorts of reforms in the
house of commons, generally without
success, but always with daring IL not
address. On the formation of Mr.. Glad
stones cabinet, in 1880, he was nomi-
mated president of the board of trade.
The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1896-09-11

As such he prepared and passed the
bankruptcy act, which is still in force
in England, and vainly attempted other
measures.
During this administration Mr.. Cham
berlain was still an advanced radical.
but after the formation of Mr. Glad
stones cabinet of 1856 he found him
self unable to agree with the Grand Old
Man, and resigned his billet as presi-
dent Of the local government board.
Then he turned unionist, and ever since
he has been the storm center of a cy-
clone of political criticism.
But he has held his own. As the BIT
terest opponent of all his old political
friends he has been as successful as
when he was their ally. His doctrine
is that unionism. in order to remain a,
power in politics, should abandon its;
merely negative policy and do some
thing, and some time, maybe, it will
Mr.. Chamberlain came TO the United
States in 1857 as chairman of the fisher
les commission. lie came back in 1855
to sign the treaty and marry Miss Endi-
colt, whom he had met during his first
visit. The wedding was on November

After all. the empress of Germany
is not without spirit, as an anecdote OF
Poultney Bigelow illustrates. He pre-.

which he had taken his trip down the

should be canoeists. Later the EN-
press spoke TO Bigelow on the subject
of canoes, and he launched into a mar
rative of the glories of shooting foam

That's too dangerous, she announced.

emperor has already given his con-
sent" ''Oh, that may be-" she said.
