The country is today presented with the amazing as we'll as deplorabIe condi tion of thousands, nay tens of thousands of honest. sober, industrious men, out of employment, furnishing for food and clothing. It is amazing that in a land like ours, land of public spirit, of pro- gress and great achievements, a land with unbounded natural resources cap able of supporting ten times it's present population, rich in agricultural and all other sources of material wealth that such condition should exist, with food practically wasting in the fields and store houses filled to oyeifowing, yet honest, indus trious men by thousands are tramp ing the country freezing and starving to death. The money that ought 10 be acting as a medium of exchange betwee n tue unemployed and the commercial world instead of being in circulation is boarded up in the usurer's vaults await ing fresh decline in values, which they confidently and not without we'll ground, ed hope, expect to follow the perpetu- ation of the gold policy of the shylocks, policy that was fastened on us by tie money power of ihe world, and that is being maintained by poodle, coercion and deception. While it IS 10 be de. plored that such condition of affairs exists among the working classes, yet before many months will have passed they will have ha3 plenty of time to re fleet en what It means to sustain the gold powers or monometalllsts of the world - AT

Ut takes money to run a newspaper" ," St. John (Kan. News.

It takes money 10 run newspaper. St, John (Kan.) News.
 What an aggregation; what whooper. It has been disproved a thousand times it is clean case of airy fancy. It doesn't take money to run a newspaper; it can run without money. It is charitable institution, a begging concern, a highway robber. B'Godfry the newspaper is the child of the air. creature of dream It can go on and on, when any other concern would be in the hands of re- ceiver and wound up with cobwebs in the window IL takes wind to run q news- paper, it takes gall to run newspaper. It takes a scintillating, acrobat1c imag- nation, and half dozen white shirts, and a railroad pass to run a newspaper. But money-Heavens to Betsy and six hands round, who ever needed money in conducting a newspaper! Kind words are the medium of exchange that do the business for the editor-kind words and church social tickets. When you see an editor with money, watch him. He'll be paying bills afd disgracing his profes. sion. Never give money to an editor Make him trade it out He likes to swap. Then when you die, after having stood around for years and sneered at the editor and his little jim crow paper, be sure and have your wife send in for three extra copies by one of your weep generous and touching notice about you, torewarn her to neglect to send fifteen cents to the editor. It would overwhelm him. Money is corrupting thing. The editor knows it and what he wants is your heartfelt thanks. Then he can thank the rinters and they can thank thelr grocers.
 Take your joo work to the job office and then come and ask for half rates for church notices. Get your lodge letter heads and stationary printed out of to- wn, and then flood the editor with beautiful thoughts in resolutions of respect and cards of thanks. They make such spicy reading, and when you pick it up filled with those glowing and vivid mortuary articles, you are so proud of our little paper! But money-scorn the filthy thing. Don't let the pure, innocent edl- tor know anything about it. Keep that for sordid trades people who charge for their words The editor gives his boun- ty away. The Lord loves a cheerful giver. He'll take care of all editors He has charge from the state to act as a doormat from the community. He'll get the paper out somehow; and stand up for you when you run for office, and lie about your pigeon-toed daughters tackey wedding; and blow about your big g-footed sons when they get AS per week job, and weep over your shriveed soul when it is released from your grasping body, and smile at your giddy wife's second marriage. He'll get along. The Lord alone knows how-but the editor will get there somehow-Covington Ohio, Gazette.
