McKinley's PrOsperity,

The babies cry in the darkness
And the wantons ride in the light
And the workless workman walks all
day.
And goes to his home at night
To find the landlord at the door
With the rent bill in his hand;
And to hear the wife and children pray
God, give us where to stand.
Oh, the spndles rust in the factory
And the fOodstuffs rot on the farm,
And the hungry laborer cannot lift
His starveling babe his arm.
His wife goes out to the washtub
And his daughter goes to the bad
And he goes down to the cheap saloon
There's drink, at least. to be had.
The merchant goes to the assignee
And the banker goes to the Lake:
And all of the gold and the land it buys
Goes under the croupiers rake,
For the gold-bugs go to the Temple,
And the workman goes to the Cross,
And the profit goes to the fnanciers
And the game-to the Peoples loss.
Oh, the cottage goes at the sheriff $
sale"
And the farm to the money king.
And the virgin prairie the good God
Il gave,
1t goes to the land-grab ring.
And the boy goes out to Cuba.
That once would have gone ''out West"
For a few of us own the whole wide
world,
And there's no room left for the rest.

VIRGINIA POPULISTS
They Censure Their Democratic
Capt. Cook for Lieutenant Cover

LYNCHBURG, Va Sept. 1.-THE Popu-
list special committee which met here last
night gave out it's address to the "Peo-
pies Party Of Virginia." ahDut o'clock
this morning. The address severely CEN
sured the Democratic state convention for
it's refusa al to nominate Capt. Cooke, the
POpulst. for lieutenant-gOvernor, charact-
erizing such refusal an indignity and
insult to the Populist party under the
circumstances.
The address, however, says that in the
opinion Of the committee conditions have
so changed as to make any further Popu-
list nominations desirable. 1t urges that
Popuists use all honorable means to elect
Cooke ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, and then elect
members Of the legislature wherever they
can the committee affirming it's belief
that mary patriotic Democrats will in
dicate their disapproval of the Democratic
conventions action by voting with the
Popuists.' Only three out Of the five
members Of the committee signed the ad-
dress.

Persons who travel over the Louisville
road know that from it's juneture with the
Augusta road. and for a distance of four
miles out. there are bitches and pools
of stagnant water. The roadbed has been.
hardened with gravel, and to that extent
il is fine road; but the country on either
side of 1t between the points mentioned
is undrained 1t may be worth while Just
here TO state that it is not claimed. so far
as we have heard, that the Buckhalter
canal would drain this area
The Dundee canal was intended TO drain
the low places along the Louisville road.
but the county commissioners. after spend
ing good many thousands of dollars in
trying TO complete the canal and building
several iron bridges across Il on DR.. Reeds
plantation in the place OF the substantial
wooden structure built by the old board
Of commissioners, abandoned the work.
That section of the proposed Dundee ca
mai which remains undug would be the
highest and cheapest, and the most impor-
tant. II would drain the area between
the Central railroad tracks and the ogee-
chez canal in which there are quite a
number Of farms.
The reason given by one OF the county
commissioners for the stoppage of work
on the Dundee canal is that a land owner
refused to give the county the right OF WAY.
| through his property unless Il was paid
/ for! The commissioners have the right
TO condemn lands for drainage purposes.
and q is strange that such au important
! work as this canal upop usblab 49,, ,.,,..t,
money has been expended, should be rend-
cred almost valueloss because someone
wants a hundred or two dollars for the
right Of way through his land. IL is also
strange that tens Of thousands OF dollars
should be spent for Augusta gravel SO
that people may ride over good roads
when a.ong these same improved highways
people are suffering IN health and fortune
owing to the fact that the adjacent bot
! tom lands are not drained because the
county commissioners will not spend few
dollars FOR rights OF way.

against the anu-bigamy law which went
into effect, though it seems not into oper-

quired TO give up all but one Of their
wives. There are about 1000 of these In

part with the annulties which each wife
and child draws. 1t looks as If there were
going to be trouble if the authorities at
tempt to enforce the law. There has
already been talk of a migration of these
Indians to Mexico, where they do not
think they would be interfeTed with. If
they desire 1t, they should by all means be
allowed to go. There are some Indians
who have intellect enough not to make
themselves obnoxious to the laws, but
there are others against whom no objec-
ton should be made If they desire to emil
crate to Mexico or Kamstchatka. These
Indians have given enough trouble of re-
cent years.
