Modjeska's health is matter Of

particular momentin the early spring,
when from every quarter reports come
of men, women and children who are
taking Paine's celery compound, and
are gaining in nervous vigOr, weight

diseases arising from a debilitated

Pops, who were absolute masters of

publicans got while the Democrats
got the only important pea in the dish.
The Democrats got Supreme Judge

And there was Bryan IN A PoPULIsr
CONVENTION, shaking his finger at, and
denouncing "Woe" upon any Populist
who dared to object to the deal in
which the Democrats got the only
Office worth having
Patriotism of this sort is very refresh
ing.
Between his parleyings with Nebras-
ka Pops and his counselllngs with
Tammany Hall chieftains, Mr.. Bryan
is weaving quite a tangled web. HIS
plan of campaign for 1900 is taking on
the looks of crazy quilt.
We shall observe the developments
with interest.
The candidate who can successfully
ride two such different horses as Wes-
tern Populism and Tammany Hall
Democracy in the same race, is not
wanting in confidence in his own
agility.
Tammany Hall is perhaps the vilest
den of professional political thieves on
the face of the earth. Mr.. Bryan
knows this, just as all other well in
formed men know it
If he can make himself solid with
the Populists as well as the Tammany.
ties, he will have broken the record in
uniting things which should never be
joined PopuIism stands for reform
for honesty, for economy, for purity
for home and country, and better laws
Tammany stands for rottenness anc
spoiliation, for organized plumber of the
taxpayer, for official partnership with
vice and crime, for corruption reduced
to science, for rascality made inso
lent by success.
Anybody who can remember whar
Tammany was under Tweed, as showr
up by Tilden and what it is NOW under
Croker as shown up by Parkhurst anG
Lexow, cannot feel very much elatec
as they see Mr.. Bryan hobnobbing il
brotherly relations with the knaves O.

cordant elements he may be able tx
evolve a triumph which will put hin

to get. T. E. W.

the employed and unemployed of our
own kith and kin.
This was done to enrich the home
laborer, it seems.
And what are the FRUITS of this
strange tree?
SOMEBODY has grown marvelously
rich on these laws.
Is it the laborer?
Or is it the capitalist? Look and see.
Yonder is the capitalist with his
palace for summer and his palace for
winter; his parlor car for land travel,
and his yacht for the sea; his $4,000
acre shooting ground in Scotland, and
his $40, 900, 600 bride to buy an English
lord with, as usband for his daughter.
That's one picture. The other is too
hideous for description. The homeless
laborer, his wretched life, his squalid
family, his degrading surroundings, his
pitiless taskmasters, his unheeded wall
of despair,-all these are but too
familiar to us.
While Carnegie, the capitalist, was
shooting pheasants on his $4,000 game
preserve in Scotland last week, twenty
odd of the laborers were shot down
like dogs in the public highway by the
deputies" whom the courts and the
capitalist have put there to subdue the
laborers who dare to demand wages on
which a human being may decently
live.
The Tariff has been ''protecting'
these laborers 100 years, and yet they
starve; the Tariff has not protected
the capitalist, and yet he rolls luxu
riously in millions.
Something queer about this Tariff
isn't there?
Those dead men in the public road
shot down by the hirelings of the
Privileged Glasses are memorial te
all ages that more damnable false
hood was never told people than thai
Tariffs "protect" American labor.
Tariffs shut out the competition o.
foreign CAPITAL thus enriching the
Carnegie crowd.
Free immigration laws bring il
foreign labor to compete with home
labor, thus impoverishing both.
Every one of these poor wretche'
murdered last week were foreigners
Hungarians. They had been brough
here to beat down the price of hom'
labor They had beat it down. Ant
when they had beat wages down tt
where no human being could decent.
live on them, they struck for bette
pay. Even Hungarians are human
you see, and reach the point wher'
flesh and blood cannot endure corpora
ton greed,
And then the federal judges, crea
lures of the corporations, got hold o
them, and enjoined them off the fac
of the earth.
And when the Hungarians didn'
vanish into space, but continued t.
walk down the public highway IN
armed, but hungry and unhappy, 10
deputies ''opened upon them witt
Winchesters, and shot them down lik
dogs.
The Protectionist who tries to har

He will Quit Politics and Make a Fortune.
New Orleans Picsyune Special.
Atlanta, Ca, Aug 27-It is announc-
ed, on unimpeachable authority, that
Thomas E Watson, late populist can
didate for the vice presidency, will soon
sell his paper to western politician
and forever retire from politics Mr..
Watson is led to this determination by
the belief that the populists of the
west will combine with the free silver
democrats and that the southern wing
of the party will not be able to stand
alone. Again, he has made thousands
of dollars recently in his law practice,
and wishes to divide his time between
that and his liteary efforts, having now
in construction a history of France
and Joan of Arc. He expects to con
clude the negotiations which he has
under way in few days and then he
will put his present plans into execu-
ton. His action comes as thunder
bolt to those most intimate with him,
as just a few days previously he had
declared his Intention of stumping the
state in the fall elections. Some local
politicians allege that Watson is inf1u-
enced in his action by the controversy
which has been proceeding between
himself and Senator Butler for the
last few months, but Watson denies
this. He says that demands for his
assistance as legal adviser are daily
growing so strong that he can not con-
sistently with his personal interest ig-
more them"
To Populists who are at all informed
this statement needs no contradiction
it only serves to show how carelessly
some people handle the truth.
Texas Populists believe that Tom
Watson is mot made of that kind of
mud" and that he would have to be re-
born before he would quit defending
the cause of the people.
1t may be possible that Watson, like
many others of the advance guard of
reform, may become so much impover-
ished in purse as to be unable to give
so much of his time to campaigning as
heretofore but as far as his ceasing to
advocate Populism is concerned, Texas
Populists believe che is not built that
way"
