tendeut OF the First Presbyterian church

$50 much suffering, grief and abuse

ing the strike from being settled" said
Mr. Paine. Il al. a mine owner and

NO one will ever know the suffering
ard waul among the thousands of poor
miners 10 Pennsylvania and Ohio. l
have heard 1t said the majority of the
miners were Poles aud other foreigners
and did not deserve a good living.
While it is true "A number of the miners
are Poles, still hundreds of Americans
are among the diggers Of coal.
Just to think that mankind should
be allowed to suffer IN this age the way
the miners are suffering at present!
Personally | am powerless to assist, ex-
cept by giving the miners food. If some

However much we may be disposed to
rejoice over the increased price of wheat
and other food products at this time our
exultation is repressed by the sad
thought that these better times to US
are at the expense OF hunger, want and
suffering Of countless thousands of
others 10 foreign countries and yet the
dishonesty and coldbloodedness of poll.
tics Is made manifest in the attempt of
the adherents Of n certain party to turn
this condition of things to patry advan.
sage by claiming that the increased pri.
ces are due to that party g administration
OF public affairs. 10 prove this, they
must first prove that they are the au.
thors of the want and suffering out of
which these better prices arise. This
c uld be more easily proven than the
former claim, yet it is simply horrible to
contemplate. There are some inhuman
things incident to politics.

Sioux City Journal, q: Now if the
government had purchased wheat in
stead of silver bullion and had stored it
in vaults, issuing certificates thereon,
the said government would not have lost
s220,0O0,0OO on the deal.
Still this amount is about an exact
measure Of what the producers of the
United States have lost on any one
years crop during that time, and the loss
on wheat was no small part of it. The
Journal should turn it's argument right
