old men, regardless of efficiency
Or length Of service, are dischsrg-
I'd or placed or q decreased salary
thereby snru!ling their right TO
participate in the mud they had
hespetl .n crea.e, or in thu c,.se of
decreasing their wages, 'a ie~san
the amount they wonld receive IA
pension, II certainly seems like
betting nM another man's zane,
and skin game at that.
The company simply says 10
their men, "Yon create this fund,
we will put in the $500, 900 filched
from our employees under the life
insurance feature of late years,
aud it We do not zee fit to discharge
you before you are seventy years
old. and you do not diez or leave
our employ before that time, we
will give ynn one half, one. third
or ore. fourth the salary Won are
receiving at that time" V.
Again it may bs said that the
right to discharge an pmolove
must not be denied.
The right OF discharge fol-
cause is conceded in all ceses, but
IN this case old age could not he
argued as cause. for this would
include The right of one party to
a contract annulling the same,
whenever it was to his financial
benefit to do so. aud no recourse
for the other party.
The road proposes to start the
fund with q donation of ak hun.
dred thousand dollars. Magnani.
nous isn't it? Before the "Tem.
Pile Amendment" passed the legis'
lature, this same road was wont
to tell the people how much money
their insurance scheme was cost
ing them, but never a word in com.
parison between the cost Of main
tanning the scheme, aud the gain
.
by being exempted from indem.
nifty in case ut death or disability
by accident.
Oh no! IL was all done in the
interest of their dear employees.
But the said scheme. when its
workings became generally known
was so obnoxious that the legisla.
ture was called upon to specially
legislate against it, and they did
SO, and now the company comes
out with a new proposition for it's
"dear employees" more glazing,
more obnoxious and more damna-
bic than the other. And while
they lost money (?) on the old
scheme, they now come forward,
and offer to start the new fund
with SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL.
LARS left in the reserve fund Of
their old losing plan. Yes we be-
lieve this proposition to be a good
one, FOR The ROAD.

Now during that thirty years
the three Thousand employees had
contributed $4,000 to this fund
as principal, and $324,O00 as in.
terest or q total of $864,OOO. Ar
amount sufficient to pay the pen
sion of these three men for 1895
years. { We doubt it they would
need it much longer than that.
1t may be said that these three
thousand men had not been con.
tributors for thirty years, and
therefore the basis of assumption
is wrong.
We answer that if these men
had not been contributors 70,
thirty years, others who had step.
ped down and out had attributed
in their stead, so the deductions
and results are the same.
Again the average duration Of
employment by one company is

PROSPECTS IN ILLINOIS.

Now in the state of Illinois a dem
Ocratic increase of Ii per cent over
the vote of 1896 will carry the state
Ii 10 per cent of the republicans
should, as we know will, refrain from
voting, the state is Bryan's s.
The state of Ohio, with it's twenty
three electoral votes, can be carried
by an increase of 5 per cent of the
1896 vote. Bear in mind that in
Ohio 10000 votes were cast last
year for Mayor Jones, who is stump
ing for Bryan. A II per cent change
will carry Michigan, state which
has the largest Holland vote of any
of our cOmmonwealths and in which
the German voters almost hold the
balance of power.
Wisconsin, which is essentially Ger
man, was carried by Mckinley in
1896 by a very heavy majority, re
versing it's verdict of 1892, when it
was carried for Cleveland. A change
of 1S per cent in the vote of that
state will be essential to carry it, but
the Indications of German support of
the democratic ticket promise such
result.
Minnesota in 1896 gave Mckinley
a heavy majority, but at the next sue
ceeding election WAS carried by the
fusion candidate for governor, John
Lind, who is now making an earnest
and active canvass for Bryan. This
state, too, has heavy foreign pop
ulation, and in it the anti-imperialist
and antitrust arguments have
proved particularly effective.
Republicans have no confidence of
success in these states, and to-day
are making their strongest effort in
Illinois, filing it full of their most
prominent speakers and arranging
rallies and parades in all quarters.
