A Cause to De Won.

Come forth from the valley, come forth
from the hill,
Come forth from the workshop, the
mine, and the mill,
From pleasure or slumber, from study
or play,
Come forth in your myriaos to aid us
today.
There's a word to be spoken, a deed
to be done,
A truth to be uttered, cause to be
Come, youths, in your vigor; come,
men, in your prime;
Come, age with experience fresh gath
cred from time;
Come, workers, you're welcome; come,
thinkers, you must
Come thick as the clouds in the mid
summer dust,
Or the waves Of the sea cleaning
bright in the sun;
There's truth to be told; a cause to
be won. iiirFf

II Lincoln Should Come Back.

The gloomy side of civilization to-
day would undoubtedly send Lincoln
hurrying back to his grave.
He would look sadly out of date to
begin with-for his breed has almost
died out. He is not fat and cynical
like Tom Reed, or cunning and de-
vious like Hill, or smoothly self-com-
placent like Low. He would be strange
figure among our public men.
With his loose, ill-fitting clothes, his
huge hands and feet, his honest face
and his honest soul, not for sale, he
would startle Havemeyer or Rocke-
Teller into fits of appendicitis.
Think Of him walking among New
York's hundred thousand unemployed,
among the starving New Bedford
strikers! And imagine him among the
dead and wounded at Lattimer! He
would say:
"They never murdered their slaves
wholesale in my day; take me back to
my tomb"

PROSPERITY NOTES.

The Centerville, R. l., cotton mills
were closed on account of the strike OF
the weavers.
A 9-per cent reduction in wages has
been made in the Forestdale Mills at
Woonsocket, r. I.
Some of the New Bedford mills have
decided to buy yarn in England, SO as
to be able to make cloth without the
aid of spinners.
The frame spinners at the Iron
Works mill, at Fall River, Mass,
have returned to work, giving up the
fight against the reduction.
The Wheeling, w. Va, Iron and
Steel company has posted notice. of
an immediate reduction from 10 to 20
per cent in the wages of all the plate
mill hands. and demanded an increase
of one heat per turn in the work to be
done at these rates. A strike was the
immediate result.

Lincoln Against Gage, Depew & Co.

The assumption by Gage, Depew, and
nearly every Republican orator, in
celebrating the birthday of Lincoln,
that Lincoln was goldite and In IA
vor of the classes against the masses.
recalls to mind how different the teach
ing Of Lincoln from those Of gold mon
opolists. For example, in his message
to Congress of December 8, 1861, in dis
cussing the labor question, he said:
mo men living are more worthy to
be trusted than those who toll up from
poverty-none less inclined to take or
touch aught which they have not hon
estly earned. Let them beware of sur
rendering a political power which they
already possess, and which, IL surren-
dered. will surely be used to close the
door Of advancement and burdens IN
on them. till all of liberty shall be-
lost

The Missionaries.

Every man and every woman who
has brain of superior quality is a
visionary. 1t is only the dull, sense
less clod who has no visions of high
er-fed humanity; Of an international
brotherhood wherein there shall be no
soldiers and few policemen; of hol-
Ter church, better judges and better
law. These were some of the visions of
Jefferson. M. M. TRUMBULL.

Review of the Class in Political Skull
duggery:
Stand up, class in Political Skull
duggery. What is a majority, Johnny
Jugglem?
A sack and boss, sir.
Keerect What part of the whole
is 81 per cent of 81 per cent?
The whole thing, sir.
Prove it.
Dead easy, sir. A law Is the "ex-
pressed will of the people," 1t is en-
acted by vote of 81 per cent. of a
bare quorum in Congress, and bare
quorum is less than 81 per cent So,
sir, 81 per cent. of 81 per cent. is the
whole thing.
Very good, Johnny, and very true.
You will be author of an apportion-
ment gerrymander bill yet.
Teddy Fuddlem, give a further ex-
ample of political arithmetic.
Yes, sir. A majority party in power
is run by a caucus vote, which is n
majority of itself. Therefore the bare
majority thrice removed is 100 per
cent.
No doubt of it. Very well, indeed!
Billy Limbolaw, express this political
equation still further, please, that the
beauties of Political Skullduggery may
unfold before us.
With pleasure, sir. Members OF Con-
gress are sent from districts varying
from 1000 to $4,000 voters, and the
dominant party in power rarely has
thirty out of every hundred votes cast
to show to the credit Of its elected
candidates. A dominant clique in
caucus rarely has over Is per cent. OF
the popular vote back of its individual
members. But they can and do enact
laws; hence Is per cent. is equal to 100
per cent.
Yes, yes, but our beautiful system
has more to show still. Howeling Pa
triot, give us the next step.
It is this way, sir. Congressman are
nominated by conventions, and fire.
Quently candidate is nominated by a
bare scratch. The delegates to these
conventions come from country con-
ventions; the members of the latter
from primaries where, on the average,
those who vote do not exceed Is per
cent. Of the rank and file Of the party.
So, sir, considering that at each of
these steps within the party organiza-
ton past masters of or science are In
control, it Is safe to say that the
dominant element in a party caucus is
not the choice of per cent. of the vot-
ers, and then one-half the adult popu
Iation is DISTINGUISHED and one-fifth Of
the voters won't vote.
Just so, young gentlemen; but the
proof of this has not been shown by
any of you as yet. Dick Dizzy, let us
see If you can prove the examples.
Yes, sir. The proof lies in the fact
that for the past third of century
all legislation has been to the benefit
of less than per cent. of the people.
Correct, correct. Now the class re-
peat after me:
The people are to blame!
Elect honest men!
Elect an honest man next time!
The majority rules!
If you want reform, vote for 1t!
This is free country!
The people rule!
Public officers are public servants!
Honest voters honest laws!
Ha-ha! ha-ha! ha-ha-ha!
The class will now adjourn to hear

ing out Of fashion.
Hungry looking faces and ragged
looking clothes are getting very fash
ionable among the wage workers.
The old time fashion Of making times
more prosperous by reducing wages
still prevails to a very large extent.
It gets more and more fashionable
for labor saving machines to displace
workmen, and for department stores to
displace small storekeepers. The in
dustrial army reserve is swelling as

POINTS FROM THE PRESS.
Blessed are the righteous minority.
for they are the forerunners of every
reform.-The Pointer.

lOT Lucy are Lie lOTeTuuutTS VI every
reform.-The Pointer.
The Populists in Oregon have made
arrangements for fusion with the Dem
ocrats and with the Silver Republic
ans. The members of the Peoples
party elsewhere have consented to
fuse with the Democrats on congress
sional nominations. The outlook for
the fall campaign Is, consequently.
very good. The Populists ought to Sc
cure forty members of the next house,
which would be nearly double the
membership they have now. The
southern contingent will probably be
larger than 1t is now. AS for the west,
1t Is more anti-Republican than 1t has
been for many years.-Twentieth Gen.
fury.
The essence of slavery is in getting
something for nothing-in getting
service without rendering service in
exchange. This is true, whether the
slavery be by means of the ownership
Of the bodies Of men, the ownership OF
land on which and from which they
must live, or of a dollar which repre-
sents wealth instead Of service.-The
Equitist.
The women of the plutocracy of Chi
cago, having no ideas higher than anil
NAL, have organized a society for the
propagation Of thoroughbred cats.
This may be called an evidence of Tom
Cat prosperity. 'Rah for Mckinley

American voting king, don't you wish
you were as good as a cat? Nice, in
telligent cats! Ugly, ignorant voting

Congressman Loud is again making
a noise about the postal deficit and
trying to get all books shut out from
the cheap postal rates that enable the
publishers to give good reading matter
at cheap prices Mr.. Loud will spend
his efforts in vain. Senators Stewart
and Butler knocked him out in the
last congress and it is safe to predict
they will not be caught mapping IN this
congress- -Conformist.
One more turn OF the screw-press
that is squeezing the life blood out of
free" Americans is contemplated by
a clique of schemers in the interest Of
monopoly. 1t is to be hoped that the
infamous measure known as the Loud
bill will not become law until the
reform press has educated the people
into methods Of self-helpfulness OF a
peaceful nature. The people are igno-
rant enough now. If the cheap PAM
phlets and the sample copies OF the re-
form press are cut off and the minds
of the masses are left to the tender
culture of the organs Of capitalism,
ignorance will be intensified and OPP
preston will run riot. The result Is
easy to foretell, for we have history as
a guide and like causes produce like ef-
fects. F. w. c. in Progressive
