The Plain Peoples Representative!

If we take the democratic papers,
for it we have in this country the
plain people and plutocrats. From
reading democratic papers, we have
come to look upon plain people as
clothed in rags, or at least very
poorly clothed, and live upon what
the plutocrats condescend to leave
them, that the plain people have
none of the luxuries of life and but
very few the necessary comforts OF
life, while the plutocrats are de-
sporting themselves in fine raiment
and luxury, they appropriate to
themselves whole trains when they
travel and set off large parts of this
earth for game preserves which
could be better used by the plain
people. That is, there are in this
country, two classes, one class
whose only work is to skin the
other and humber class whose very
life blood is almost taken and who
exist by the most abject drudgery.
William Jennings Bryan is com
monty supposed to be the represen-
tative and leader of this so-called
lower and oppressed class. But as
a representative of that hum bier
class, to our mind, he deports him
self much like the biggest plutocrats
in the country. If he travels, he
travels in special cars and often he
has a whole train at his disposal.
He has his valet and secretary with
him who look after his comfort.
Now he is just returned from a
stay of several weeks on Col. Nose
Wettemore' hunting preserve in
Missouri, Whetemore is pultocrat,
having become immensely rich in
the manufacture Of tobacco.
Senator Hanna, of Ohio, is gener-
allv pictured out as the arck- angle of
plutocracy, yet if Senator Hanna
travels it is like any one else Of the
seventy five million people in this
country. He is attended by no SER
wants and SO far has not appro-
priated to his own and friends use
great stretches of God S domihions
| for purely sporting purposes.
! Wherein does Bryan show that be
is any different from hundreds OF
other plutocrats. He condescends
sometimes to travel, clothed il
overalls and a jacket, but that is
only for show. He does that wher
he goes out among the plain people
of Nebraska. But generally he is
clothed in fine linen and costly raj
NEXT, such IS no faithful representa-
| tive Of the down-trodden should

A Farm or q Factory.
AUG. DOENITZ.
Register

When you buy farm or build factory, it
is natural to consider all conditions. and to
locate to the very best advantage. In the
northern portion of Wisconsin there lies a
vast portion of undeveloped, or partially de-
veloped country, which is awaiting the set
tier and manufacturer to turn into produc-
tiveness and wealth,
Thousands of acres of rich lands covered
with fine hardwood timber are open to the
settler, who can obtain as much as he de-
sireS at very reasonable figures and upon easy
terms. improvements, such as school houses
and roads are being pushed and ten years of
of progress will make an astonishing change.
The earths rich deposits of iron ore, clay
kaolin and mari, together with hardwood
timber, easily supply the wants of the manu-
facturer and offer fine inducements for the
location of plant or factory.
The Wisconsin Railway Company running
through this rich timber and mineral belt.
has opened to the world by offering quick and
cheap transit to the principal markets Of the
country.

tions, maps and pamphlets will be sent upon

American Post Office In Paris.


One of the most interesting feat.
ures of the Paris exposition next year
will be model American post Office,
which it is proposed to make up to
date in every particular. It will be
on the order of the one maintained
at Philadelphia in 1876, and so
greatly improved upon at the
Worlds Fair in 1898. Arrange
ments will be made with the French
postal authorities by which mails
for Americans in Paris will be sent
to and delivered from the American
post-office instead of going through
the regular Paris Office, which, it is
thought, will facilitate matters, and
relieve the department in France of
considerable labor.
France has enjoyed the privileges
of the Postal Savings System since
1875, and the exhibit will be sadly
incomplete by most foreigners un-
less some showing is made of the
proposed American system of Postal
Savings Banks. We are singularly
deficient in that regard, but should
remain so no longer.

"BUsTED."

The TIMES has presistently oppos-
esd the Sabin railroad schemers for
aEae past two years, or since the
companies, under the management
uf Mr.. Sabin, began what has
always appeared to US, systematic
attempt to avoid the payment of
Galeaa honest debts.
Ea November, 1895, the people
Voted nearly a quarter OF million
sSeDGaars railroad aid bonds, for the
paarpose of constructing the roads
akaGt were subsequently built. Our
airst protest was made when Mr..
Sabin2s .laborers failed to receive
Giaeir pay; next, we registered our
Gflsapproval when it was plain to be
seen that the county was being
Swindled out of the stock it held in
The enterprise. We believe that
a8sag. position all through has been
sgnsistent and correct. and that if
-asr circumstances had been needed,
GAse se@unty would today own the
s-ea&. and its earnings would be
gFgs1sksg off the interest and principal
sas ITS Indebtedness. Instead of this,
osaeeeelanty owns no interest in the
Essaa, ats stock is like so much blank
psSspea:, and tie people are being tax
ord uxaneccessarily to pay off one
EaazrEmed and eighty-fve thous-
zzssa dollars of bonds bearing interest
at Gaae per cent, which in the twenty
wears will amount to the grand sum
eastal of three hundred and seventy
ahoasand dollars. THE TINES pub
1Esaed in an issue during the past
saazwmer an article from Mr.. George
Prem tiss, who formerly acted as
aE,astee of the road, and which very
e1o1clusively showed up the most
Eotton piece of corruption that ever
ever existed in Northern Wisconsin.
Saba and his outfit endeavored to
make little of the exposure, by say
fng that Mr. Prentiss was sore, but
were unable to deny any of the state
rzezats he made, and perhaps wise
ly did not attempt it. Three weeks
ago THE TINES opened up on the
grUposed surrender of more bonds.
We followed the matter up a week
ago by the publication Of the opin-
ions of prominent citizens upon the
question. The splendid endorse
gHlasnt which The TIMES has received
froza the citizens throughout the
county has been extremely crafty
Iag 20 say the least, while the adding
III half hundred new subscribers to
x1sar subscription list within three
weeks, satisfies us that our efforts,
To stop this wholesale plumber is

the Milwaukee Journal, is informing
the people of great political deal,
