Mrs. CONNOLLY DEAD.

Could Not Recover from the Severe
Burns and the Shock.
Mrs. Bernard Connolly, who was Sc
verely burned while trying to put out a
blazing lamp at her home, No. 4S9 State
street, Monday night, died at the New
Haven hospital about o'clock yester-
day morning. Mrs. Connolly suffered
greatly from the shock, and while the
burns were serious, it Is thought that
the shock to her system rather than
the burns was the cause of her death.
Medical Examiner White was notified
of her death yesterday and gave certi-
ficate of death from accidental causes.

A=GAG.

1T IS A GETTING to be a great gag
the exercise Of raising prices be-
cause of the advance. in raw ma
terial. There has been no advance OF
any raw material-and I defy any man
to prove it. It is simply the excuse of
the profit-monger for his extortion.
All raw material comes from the earth
and costs only the labor of getting.
There is no advances in the price of
that labor and improved methods
make the getting cost less than ever
before. One reader sends me the no.
,tice of the advance in the price of
raw silk as an advance in prices. Does
it cost more today to unwind the co
coons? Or have the silk worms
struck for higher wages? New meth
DDS are continually cheapening the
time necessary to produce silk, wages
are not higher, and the excuse offered
for the; extortion is very clumsy. If
they would say that the source OF
production is in the hands Of few
who have decided to extort it would
have at least the merit Of being true.
The cost of producing raw material
has been reduced. The recent advance
in prices is extortion, pure and SIM

Large Average of Cargoe..

The past season of navigation has
witnessed further increase in the av-
erage size of ore cargoes. The $780,
965 tons of ore that were shipped from
the Duluth, Missabe & Northern docks
this year were carried in 923 cargoes,
an average of 1913 tons for each cargo.
This beats the 1898 record at this dock
by 1923 tons. The average cargo in 1898
was 3,4S4 tons.

A PROPHECY.
The Non -Conformist saws:

It is rather amusing to find the two re-
publlcs of South Africa, with a combined
white population of less than 3OO 900, issu-
ing proclamations annexing sections of the
British colonies, and changing the names
OF towns in Natal and Cape Colony in honor
OF Boer leaders. The sensation is a novel
one for the British empire. which is ac-
customed to take the lead in the annexa-
ton business.-Globe- Defnox. at~-----
why haven't the Beers as good a right
to annex British territory as the British
have to conquer the country of the Beers ?
The inhabitants of that anenXed territory
seem to like it. They are focking to the
British standard in immense numbers. All
South Africa seems to be in a revolutionary
crisis. One. or two decided Boer victories,
and the United States of South Africa will
be so firmly established that the power of
Great Britain can never prevail against it,
It looks to us as if Johnny Bull were riding
to his fall 1t looks as if his mighty en-
pire is crumblng into ruin. If the Beers
are successful in achieving their independ-
ence, other rebellons will break out, and
England will be fighting for her life all
around the world. AS the Dutch in the low
countries started the ball to rolling that
finally crushed the mighty power Of SPAIN
SO may the Dutch in Africa have started
blaze that will envelop Great Britain in a
mighty conf1agration.

the government shall own the rail-


roads.
The Peoples party believe that the
means of transportation and communi-
cation, being public necessities, should
be owned and controlled by the public
In the interests of the people. Does
either of the old parties favor public
ownership of railroads? No, but on the
other hand, that has been the most bit
ter point of attack by the politicians
OF both old parties against u.s. The
Democrats and Republicans are as one
in favor of monopoly ownership of rail-
roads and telegraphs. They howl about
trusts and combines, yet they we'll
know that every trust and every COM
bine in America are based on the mo-
nopoly-owned transportation lines of
our country and can never be destroyed
until the railroads are run, like the
postoffice, in the interest of the people,
giving equal service and equal rates to
all people and to every section.
The Peoples party opposed the mo-
nopoly of land. We maintain that the
land is the gift of Almighty God to the
people and should not be monopolized
by few of the people while others,
equally His heirs, are disenherited. Do
either of the old parties oppose land mo-
nopoly and alien ownership? If so
why is it that an English lord owns
100000 acres of our best lands in
Illinois, Missouri and Nebraska, while
the descendants of our revolutionary
heroes pay him annual tribute in ex-
horbitant rentals?
The Peoples party believes in direct
legislation, by which the people will
have the right to vote yes or mo-
on the laws under which they must live.
We favor a peoples government. We
islatures and congresses, but they can
not buy our people. For that reason
we favor giving the people the power
Do the old parties favor this? No-by

ties are really opposed to every prin-
ciple Of the Peoples party; that they
are both on the same side of the ques-

parties marry each other

The Trial Went Democratic.

When l was making Third party

Hon. Jerry Simpson, of Kansas, II was
travelling through the South, on what
one might call the Southern circuit. In
one little town in Georgia, where |
spoke-I won't name the place-havine
an afternoon on my hands and nothing
to do, l strolled over to justice of the
peace court to entertain myself with a
trial that was set for that day. 1t seems
that darkey had stolen a lot of bacon
and sold it to white man. Both were
arrested; the darkey for larceny aax the
Caucasian for receiving stolen goods.
They didn't call for a separate hearing.
but listened to both cases at once. The
justice had no power to determine the
matter, and could only bind the culprits
over to await the grand jury. This was
what the Squire did, too. Held them
both and fixed bail for each at 5000. AS
| stood there couple of men pushed
forward qualified and signed up for the
release of the white man. No one
wanted to do similar favor for the
darkey, and the sheriff snapped a brace
of handouts on him preparatory to TAX
ing him over to the bastile and locking
him up. At this juncture an old uncle
OF the darkey came hobbling up. He
had come too late to witness the pro-
ceedings, but he was all curiosity to
learn the upshot aaa4s
How'd dis yere hearin' go?" he whis-
pered to sullen young negro who stood
looking on. 1t was just at the crisis
when the sheriff was starting for the
jail with the felon darkey, while the
white man was walking out with his
bondsmen, apparently very free men.

Fakirs and Suckers,

T.. Fakirs and Suckers.
There are only two great classes in the
world, I say,
Fakirs and suckers. e.
The suckers do the labor. and the fakirs
draw the pay;
The suckers do the voting and the fakirs
hold the sway.
The suckers raise the crops, but the
fakirs fix the price;
The fakirs hold the market and get the
biggest slice.
The fakirs take the harvest, the suckers
hold the bag,
The fakirs dress in broadcloth, the
suckers chew the rag.
The suckers feed the cows and the fakirs
get the milk;
The suckers feed the silk worms, the ia
kris get the silk
The suckers build the mansions the ia
kris occupy;
Thessuckers are the bakers, but the
= fakirs eat the pie.
The suckers make the fabrics, but the
fakirs own the mills
The fakirs have the pleasures while the
suckers foot the bills
The fakirs have the feasts, while the
suckers get the crusts:
The sucker pays the prices. while the
fakir runs the trusts,
w~A. v
The suckers are the workers,
The fakirs are the shirkers,
The fakirs~ are the wealth takers,
And this is why Say
There are on seafth today
Just the CLASSES
And the masses
And the masses are the prey
Just the ones who do the toll
And the ones who get the spoil,
And the spoilers do the toilers in the
same old way.

Editor Representatives. is beyond my
comprehension why your paper is filled with
the kansas City Plan of Organization of
the Peoples party and Milton Parks appeal
uncalled for and beyond doubt treacherous
piece of work for true reformers. Look at
the facts in the case:
1st. Mid-Road Populists of Minnesota
left the fusion gang June 10y 1898, and or
ganized a party of their own, adopted a
plan of organization in July following,
which was adopted with only two or three
additions at Cincinnati, Sept. following.
Next May few half-baked Mid Road
Populists met in Kansas City and formu
lated plan which is foolish in the extreme
in that it advises all Mid-ROad PopulistS
to send delegates to meet in convention
with the Butler fusion crowd and "once
more" attempt to down them and in case
of failure land nothing else will be the
RESULT then to bolt" and elect a contest
ing delegation, such tactics to be followed
up clear to and through the national con-
vention and after all of this fighting,
scrambling and expense and idiotic folly to
nominate those candidates for president and
vice. e-president recommended by the refer
endum vote; provided, in the judgment of
the national organization committee sufi-
cient number of clubs have been organized
to make such vote both practical and
representative Of the will of the party"
What does that mean? Nothing more or
less than that the said national committee
will do exactly as it pleases.
Such rank nonsense was never seen before
in any political gathering. l believe it was
a deep laid scheme to kill the Mid Road
Populist movement and it is plain two ways
are open to accomplish that result.
First-The referendum vote, as proposed
to be taken by Parks tool, H. B.. Fay, NJ.
D., is loose, impracticable, unsafe and will
not be true criterion to go by; hence, the
committee will have ample grounds
to ignore it, or if it is for their interest to
claim that the vote is representative of
the will of the people, why, they will in
dorse It, and there you are. Why is Fay's
plan loose, unsafe etc." you ask. I an
swer, because he has no Mid Road Populist
party clubs to work through If he has any
which is doubted, it is a
mongrel concern without name members
or place to work. Mid Road Popuists of
Minnesota will not join his clubs will not
go into any fight with the fusion gang"
either in caucus, referendum vote or the
