PROPHETS WITHOUT HONOR.
Republican Prosperity Train Not Running
Schedule Time.

The republican programme of pros
perity, contrary to the schedule ar
ranged by the Mckinley people, refus-
es to make any time at all or to draw
up at any station. The position of Mr..
Cleveland and the Palmerites that all
we needed was confidence, that the
money system would be protected and
that prosperity would flow out just as
the anarchists were properly harbored
has not been justified by the facts.
Mckinley, as an advance agent of pros
perity, is fraud, palpable fraud. A
tax law passed the house providing for
an increase Of the burdens of the peO-
pie to millions and even hundreds OF
millions more for each year than was
the heavy burden before. This bill.
or practically the same bill, VIII be-
come law, and yet the mills refnSe to
open and, in fact, have no business
opening, as there is a sufficient amount
of goods on hand to supply the public.
Why should they open, then? Shall a
tax upon wheat producer or a cot
ton producer help either of these men
buy manufactured products when they
could not buy them befOre?-Eufaula
