The anthracite coal trade is quiet, but the

active and the New England markets are not
expected to take any more coal than is actu-
ally necessary to supply Che demands Of con-

How They Paid the Penalty.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, June Alive of the six
children of Bert Crowley, laborer are dead,
the result of exposure incurred by being evict-
ed from their home by Crowley's landlord
Special to Kansas City Journal.
While the above is an extreme case, yet it
represents what in less cruel degree, is the
condition of millions of destitute people who
are idle because there is nothing that they can
do TO earn bread, let alone pay rent. AS rule,
we are opposed to mob law, but we are not sure
but it would be an instructive lesson, justified
by the circumstances, to hang few landlords
like the heartless brute whose inhunan act re-
suited in the death of five of poor Crowley's
children These defenseless little ones were
the victims of an infamous system Of govern
ment that robbed their father of an opportunity
to earn the rent, and they had to pay the pen
atty with their lives.
The cause of nine-tenths of the suicides re-
ported in the daily papers originate in the ina
biity of the poor souls to get enough work to
earn sufficient food to keep them from starving;
and the saddest feature about the matter is that
these conditions are growing worse every day.
Under such circumstances, is it any wonder
that the six hundred laborng men who were
discharged last week at Wilmerdig, Pa, on &C
count of "dull times" tore McKinley's picture
into shreds and tramped it under foot? Is it
any wonder that Wanamaker, Butterworth,
Chandler, ingalls, and millions of snall-fry
Republicans are kicking like government mules
over the utter failure of the Republican party
to make good its promises of an immediate
restoration of confidence accompanied by
big 'wave of prosperity"? The people were
never so humbugged and deceived before. 1t
will be harder to fool them the next time, but
it will be done if monopoist Doodle can do it.

A Leaf From History

Many Republican papers now talk as though
that party had always opposed free coinage, and
yet, 10 longer ago than 1890, Senator Plumb
offered the following as substitute for Sec.
of what was called the Window bill, that had
already passed the House:
That from and after the date of the passage
of this act the unit of value in the United States
shall be coined of 4I2H grains of standard silver
or of 25.S grains Of standard gold; and the said
coins shall be equally legal tender for all sums
whatsoever. That hereafter any owner of silver
or gold bullion may deposte the same at any
mint of the United States, to be formed into
standard dollars, or bars, for his benefit, and
without charge; but it shall be lawful to refuse
any deposit of less value than 500, or OF any
bullion so base as to be unsuitable for the opera
tons of the mint.
On motion of Senator Vest the last clause of
the first sentence was amended so as to read:
And the said coins shall be legal tender for
all debts, public and private.
The section as amended, was passed by 43
to "a. Among the ayes, were Blair, OF ~ H.,
Cameron, of Pa, ingalls, and Plumb, OF Kans.,
tones and Stewart, of New, Manderson, OF Neb.,
Saunders of Mon, Squire, of Wash, and Teller
and Wolcott of COL, Republicans-or more than
one third of all the Republicans voting. The
moority for free coinage was nearly two to one

JUST now, there is quite a howl from the
camp of Republican coyotes over the removal
of few fossilized G. o. p. professors from the
agricultural college at Manhattan, and the fill
ing of their chairs by such wide awake, up-to-
date, able and fearless men as Professors Bemis,
of Chicago, and Parsons, of Boston. The
partisan Republican press, from the Dogtown
Howler down to the Topeka Capital, claims
that the college is being 'run into politics."
and predict all kinds of calamities in the near
future-all of which requires immense
amount of cheek, in view of the fact that the
college has been a 6. o. p. club house for al
most twenty years Tell us, we grumblers, did
you ever employ any but Republican instruct
ors in our state institutions? You know very
we'll that if, by accident, you happened to get
man who possessed a sufficient degree of in
dependence to do little thinking for himself,
and he was thus led out of old ruts into the
light of higher and more progressive line of
thought he was at once met with the cry of
"demagogue, crank, calamity howler and rat
Drained fool!'-and it was kept up until he
was forced to resign, and finally, practically
driven from the state. Don't worry, brethren;
the Populist party has no thought of making
political machines out of our state institutions,
but it DOES intend that they shall cease to be
such.

A New YORK World correspondent says that
there is intense hostility to Mark Hanna in
Ohio, and that bitter fight will be made to de-
feat him for the United States senate. Hos
tility is all right is before election, but
the hostility at the ballot box is what
counts. If the people of Ohio will fold their
indignation in ballots, we will believe in their
hostility to Hanna. 1t is too soon to hope for
Hanna hostility. Hanna has not yet opened
his barrel of one million, five hundred thou
sand dollars. Just wait till he begins to colo
nize the Pennsylvania discharged employees, the
Chicago buns and the Massachusetts, tramps,
and then where will be the intense hostility?
Verify, hostility to the Hanna class of states
men has hard road to travel. Preachers and
buns, mllionaires and tramps, will fight side
by side and shoulder-to o. shoulder to elevate the
astute, but put vely corrupt Mark Hanna into
the position United States Senator. If the lib
erty-loving voters of all parties do not unite in
the coming contest Hanna will win and gen
Grafton of Hanna will wipe out American lib
erty.

In glancng over one paper for evidence OF
prosperity, we found in one column, as mat
ter Of news, that the Pennsylvania Plate Glass
Co. had shut down for an indefinite period, and
a probable shut down for a big iron mandatory
in Pittsburg. There was ten per cent. reduc-
ton in wages of employees in four large con-
cerns-one in Pittsburg, one in Altoona, one in
Reading and one in Sommersworth. Reducing
wages or shutting down of factories is of week
ly, almost daily, occurence-and this is the
wave of prosperity. The warning the people
received in the last campaign passed UNDECIDED
by many of the people who are now caught.
1t may be claimed that some of the employees
who are now in the jaws of the Hanna trap are
fast in their own deadfall. Pennsylvania was
overwhelmingly for gold standard. The peo-
pie had their choice of increasing wages and
mo employment, or a reduction of wages and
less employment. They chose lower wages and
idleness Let them take their medicine
If our Republican friends want to see big
crowd, they should attend the Chautauqua at
Ottawa on Bryan day, June 18th. Governor
Leedv will preside 1t will do them good to
see the man who licked them in Kansas in 90,
and the man who will lick them in the nation
in 1000. Better begin to get used to it now,
and it won't hurt sc bad when the final blow
comes.

Gently published an excellent letter by William
Lawrence, president of the National Wool Grow
ers' association, on rhe tariff on wool. He
shows that the protection promised the farmers
by the Republican party is insufic ent to protect,
and demonrtrates that the only benefciaries of
the high tariff are the manufacturers of the East
who contributed enormously to the national
campaign und.-Ottawa Journal.

Cy Leland Shown Up in a Bad Light.

According to the daily papers, Cy Leland,
the big Republican boss, is charged with try
ing to bride Arthur Capper and Tom McNeal,
of the Topeka Mail and Breeze, to hold back
the publication Of the stock-yards bill. He
offered them $50 to postpone its publication for
a week, and said if that sum was not sufficient,
they could get more. At that time, the Mail
and Breeze was the official state paper. Cy
said he was representing the Kansas City Stock
Yards Company. The offer was not accepted.
Attorney-General Boyle says if he can secure
proof that Leland made the offer, he II prosecute
the "boss." Capper and McNeal both admit
that they received the offer, and we see no need
of further proof. Let the prosecution proceed.
