Still Suffering for Want of Work.

Ex-Gov. Altgeld accurately analyze
the present situation in a letter to tn
New York Herald:
Inc American people know tina
while the wheat crop is phenomenal
large in our country, it is a failure i,
the South American and Europea,
countries. so that there must come
klhd OF wheat famine. and that conse
iuehtly the farmer should get NOR
taan sL5O for his wheat, and would ge

formerly prevailed in the world so tha
lie IS even now suffering a wrone
caused by legislation.
Inc average price of all other com.
modltles known to the worlds mar.
Kets mas been steadily falling, and sill.
yer, whose uses have been restricted
Wy legislation, has simply kept pace
WIN the other commodities, as shown
oy the London markets. In our coun-
Try the price Of corn and most of the
otner farm products is so low as not
10 pay the actual cost of production.
Inc present advance in wheat, being
uue 10 a temporary cause, cannot give
general or lasting prosperity; besides.
only a small portion of the farmers of
america raises wheat.
Should the Klondike country or any
otner country, so greatly increase the
volume OF the worlds money as to pro-
ouce prosperity, it would be a demon
stratlon OF the correctness of the posi-
lion that an increase in the volume Of
money gives prosperity, while reduc-
tlon IN the quantity of money produces
paralysis.
Inc country has now enjoyed more
tnan nine months Of restored conf
dence, and as result the great cotton
mills OF New England have shut down
because they could not sell their prod
ucts; the coal miners of America are
on a strike against hunger and against
hakeoness, and the Chicago City Rail-
way company which last winter helped
10 aeoauch the legislature of Illinois
ana got advantages worth millions Of
ooilars, has just given notice to its
men OF reduction in wages.
The condition OF the debtors and
honest toilers is getting steadily worse
congress has just given the Sugar
!, rust q year tribute in excess of what
Iney formerly got from the sweat of
american industries in order that
'nese patriots may not amass fortunes
themselves, but may contribute mil.
Ions to carry elections.
The newspapers are persistent,v

AN people are not fooled by it.
Nearly all of the events since the
iectlon have tended to show that the

a commission for extending the matur-
ing bonds at lower rate of interest
and an option on the Packer stock,
carrying with it the voting power.
1t Is easy to see how electrical eouin-
ment will make Morgans roads nav
dividends. All locomotive firenen will
be dispensed with, and engineers,
wages greatly reduced. The fuel hills
will be much less, as there is neces.
sarily great waste of coal By each To-
comotive at present. These economies
introduced on Mr.. Morgan's system
will make competition by non-electric
lines impossible, and force all of the
roads to surrender to Morgan-British
control.
Then we shall have an absolute rail-
road monopoly, several hundred thou
sand railroad men out of employment
and the prosperity naturally to be ex-
pected from such conditions.
