Thus does plutocracy fight, beneath
the black flag of the pirate, taking all
that is in sight, while its insatiate ap-
petite ever c1amors for more.
If it makes such gigantic strides for
the next dozen years as it has in the
past thirty, the plutocracy will become
the absolute master of this country.
Then, with the army and navy to
back it, REINFORCED by the courts, the
railroads, the telegraph companies,
the newspapers, and the money of the
world, what chance will there be for
the people to further resist it's en-
croachments? 1t will then be too late,
and the masses will be reduced to a
condition of serfdom, while the pluto
cracy will own all the wealth.
A few men will own all the land,
and the great body of citizens will be
mere tenants on the vast estates of
the landed gentry. The money trust
will control all lines of business en-
terprise, and men will become ma
chimes in the hands of few.
This may, indeed, seem to be a
gloomy picture, but it is no worse
than existing conditions really por-
tray. Unless its power is destroyed
the American plut ocracy, more tyran-
nica1 than feudal despot, will surely
undermine our free institutions and
pull down the Temple of our Liber-
ties

A Newsboy's Gratitude.

A writer in the New York Recorder
tells the story of newsboy who,
months after he had eaten Christmas
supper, insisted on paying the kind
journalist who provided it. On Christ
mas night an o1d-time newspaper
writer stepped into a cheap restaurant
in Park Row for cup of hot coffee.
AS he took his seat at one of the small
tables, ragged little boy planted
himself on the stool opposite. There
was wolfish glare in the boys eyes
as he fumb1ed a nickel and said, "a
plate of beans.''
1 slipped my coffee and watched the
boy ravenously devour the beans.
Whispering to the waiter, told him
to bringa plate of corned beef, some
bread and butter and a bowl of coffee
for the boy. The little fellow stared
for moment, and then began his
meal. In a few minutes the beef,
beans, bread and coffee had disap-
peared, yet the boys appetite was not
satisfied.
''What kind of pie do you like?" 1
asked.
''Most any kind; they's all good,''
replied the boy.
Bring him some mince and pump
kin pie" said 1 to the waiter.
The boy gazed at the two pieces of
pie in wonderment, then looked up
shyly aud pushed his nickel toward
me.
whats that for?" asked the man.
''To pay for the spread; it's all I've
got.''
Taking quarter from my pocket,
I laid it on the boys coin and pushed
it across the table.
''Is them for me?" said the boy, with
his mouth of pie. "Am 1 to have all
that?'
Eyes; this is Christmas night, you
know"
eyes, l remember; but 1 had no
money for my lodging, so didn't get
any of the dinner down at the News
boys Lodging House. Thank you,
mister. You is good ter me-"
Months passed. One day a boy
stopped me, near Brooklyn Bridge.
"Say, nister,' said he, 81 owe you a
quarter. Here it is.''
Recognizing my Christmas guest,
1 gently refused the money, telling
him tnat he had better keep it.
''No you take it, he persisted.
THAT supper and the quarter you gave
brought me luck, and I've not been
so hungry since. You was so good
that night, and want you to take the
quarter now, so as you can give some
other boy Christmas supper"
took the coin, and many poor news
boy has had a good dinner since.

Hons Win.

Allen o. Meyers who had charge of
the Democratic steering committee
during the late senatorial contest at
Columbus, was not pleased with the
messages of fe1icitation between Pres
ident Mckinley and Senator Hanna,
aud sent the President the following
telegram:
January II, 1893 TO William Nc
kinley, President of the United States,
Washington: Your telegram to Han
ma and his telegram to you are twin
insults to every honest man in the
United States, and an outrage on dec
ency. Nero fiddled while Rome burn

ment is at hand.-(Signed) Allen O.

"What we have contended with dur

had no money except that contributed
by private persons, and a large num-
Der of them. We had the task of
combating with millions of money,
and million is not an excessive sum
to say, was used by Mr.. Hanna. In
addition, there was the influence of
not only the national, but, in a big
part, the state influence. Then every
Republican who had got together $780,
600 of capital constituted himself a
committee of one to spend 500 in Mr..
Hanna's behalf. There were over
200 people on his payroll, and every
one was either watching or dogging

Hon. John w. BreidenthaI Gives his
Views I'm the New Time.
GA magazine such as understand
the New Time is intended to be, while
it should admit to its columns articles
upon all phases of reform, should
make a speciality of a few leading
questions of vital Importance which
are attracting the attention of all
classes of thinking people, and in the
discussion of these, fundamental prin-
ciples should be adhered to ripid1y.
Discussion of merely palliative reme-
dies for existing evils should be elimi-
mated. Any legislation calculated to
make present conditions endurable
will retard true reform and postpone
the day when correct system of So
ciety shall be adopted. All attempts
to regulate" corpora tions which con-
troll our money, our transportation and
our public utilities will prove abortive,
and while such attempts may in some
instances give Temporary relief, they
can not remedy the evils resulting from
private corporate ownership. Hence
government ownership of railroads,
telegraph and telephone lines, as well
as the express business. municipal
of public utilities. and the
aboiishing of all b. nks of Issue, res
toring to the government the absolute
control of our money, are fnndamen-
tai principles upon which the people
should be educated.

SCORES KILLED.
Tornado Kills Thirty.Rve People at
Fort Smith

Fort Smith.
Late advices from Fort Smith, Ar
kansas, tell story of death and de-
struction scarcely paralleled in recent
years at least. Two score of human
lives and upwards of one million dol
lars worth of property were destroyed
by a tornado unprecedented in its
fury.
The storm struck near the national
cemetery, and tore its way through
the entire city, leaving its path mark
ed by death and horror. Men, women
and children, sleeping peacefully in
their homes, were awakened to meet
a horrible death in the storm, while
others who escaped the fury of the
wind, met a far worse fate in the
flames which soon engu1fed the wreck
ed buildings.
The national cemetery is a total
wreck. The fine trees were uprooted,
the lodge demolished and the wall torn
down. Many of the finest residences
in the city, including the home of
Judge Parker, are in ruins.
The citizens relief committee has
$4,000 for assisting sufferers, and
contributions are increasing.
The same tornado crossed the Ar
kansas river half mile south of Van
Buren, and tore path two hundred
yards wide through Crawford county.

1t is true that the meek have not vet

few days ago. He had spent several
hours sweltering in an anti-chamber
before the great man would consent to
see him. When he finally found him
self in the august presence the great
man drew out his watch and remarked
in lofty way that was intended to be
impressive: 'sI can spare you lust ten
minutes" The meek mans eye fash
ed tire, then he laboriously drew his
watch and proceeded to call the bluff
in this wise; ST am sorry, but 1 find
that can spare you only five.', And
before the great man had recovered
the meek man had sold him a half in
terest in company whose object it
was to provide chest protectors for
polar bears and ameliorate the condi-
tion of the Esximos by teaching them
that soap can be used for other things
beside dessert.
