POVERTY AND WEALTH.

The stork flew over town one day,
And back of each wing an infant lay.
One to a rich mans home he brought
And one he left on a laborers cot
The rich man said, my son shall be
4 lordly ruler Ger land and sea"
The laborer sighed. IT'S the good Gods will.
That have another mouth to FILL"
The rich mans son grew strong and fair.
And proud with the pride of a millionaire.
His motto in life was Live while you may"
And he crowded years in a single day.
He bought position and name and place,
And he bought him 4 wife with handsome face.
He journeyed over the whole wide world.
But discomfort in his heart lay curled
Like a serpent hidden in leaves and moss,
And life seemed hollow and gold was dross
He scoffed at woman, and doubted God
And died like 4 beast and went back TO the sod.
The son of the laborer titled the soil.
And thanked God daily for health and toll.
He welded for love in his youthful prime,
And two lives chorded in tune and time.
His wants here simple. and simple his creed
To TRUST COP FULLY : it served his need,
And lghtened his labor. and helped him to die
With a smile on his lips and hope in his eye.
When all is over and all is done.
Now which of these men was the richer oney

stands unobscured by jealousies or

there has never been question as to
who furnished the brains, the nerve

has stood in no need OF certificates or

There was no possibility of mistake as
to what he did or what his achieve

Thus, in the simplicity Of his notifa

and with shame. Herein lies the ex-
planation Of the popular love and pride

both Of which conditions are almost
exclusively under the control of the
employment system inaugurated aud
manipulated by the trust combines.
1t is absolutely false that wages have
been increased, for il this were true
labor troubles would not be heard OF
and the columns of the dailies would
not TEEN with the constantly recur-
ring reports Of these disturbances.
When these Republican fostered
trusts have succeeded in swallowing
up the thousands OF smaller concerns
and thereby reducing the number OF
employees necessary to conduct under
one head the consolidated business
were formerly II required double and
IN some instances trebble the number
OF men, the wages OF the fortunate
employees may have been increased
but this has been more than Offset by
the thousands Of employees thrown out
OF work by reason Of such consolida-
tion.
This is what these administration
howlers mean when they set up the
yell that the wages OF the iaboring
class are being daily increased under
the Republican trust system. Every
man in the country knows that these
pretentions are false, and that by rea-
son ot this trust system, fostered |
cared for and petted by the present
Republican regime, more employees
are out of employment today that ever

MKIS1BY,s BELArRD A.TIoN

| After more than two years of inde,
eision President Mckinley was at last
forced by the pressure OF public opinion
to approve the sentence OF the court
martial which tried and convicted
Captain o. M, Carter. Of the United
States army, of the embezzlement Of
over million and half of public
funds, and he has been imprisoned on
Governors island. Everything that
wealth, powerful friends and influ
encc could do were brought to bear on
President Mckinley to have him dis
approve the sentence, and for moro
than two years he yielded TO these in.
huenees, but at last the press OF the
country took the matter up and made
1t SO hot for Mckinley that his weak
nature could not resist the pressure,
and when they threatened to carry
the matter into the political canvass
OF 1899 and 1900 he gave up and or
dered the sentence to be executed.
The president deserves no credit for
enforcing the sentence of the court,
for had 1t not been for the newspapers
ana the fear that the matter would be
forced into the political arena, to the
great y jGrg OF his reelection as pres.
ident, Captain Carter would stiu be
wearing his uniform and enjoying his
liberty as a free man.
