laziness and induce him to engage in
disagreeable tasks. .....@.-.
The ignorant and semi-civilized have
| for 1000 years taken up the cross OF
| Christ and the burdens Of Christianity
through fear of future punishment A
| much greater number have been educat-
ed by promises of future reward.
So in the province of industry a few
servile. groveling, cringing, cowardly
spirits could be whipped into service.
A still smaller number of goody-goody.
saint-like individuals might be found
sufficiently conscientious to do their
duty. (From our estimate of human ma
ture we imagine these individuals would
be about as scarce as hens teeth and
white blackbirds.l
BY far the greater number would
exert themselves only in response to the
promise or hope of reward in private
ownership. Strike out from the English
vocabulary those little words my" and
mine" and you will have world Of
shfrkers. That tired feeling would et-
tack whole communities and become q
worldwide epidemic. Read the follow
ing extracts from Debs' platform, upon
which he was nominated at Indian
apolis:
"The Social Democratic party of
America declares it's object to be: The
abolition of wage slavery by the estab-
lishment of national system of CO.
operative industry, based upon the social
or common ownership of the means of
production and distribution, to be ad-
ministered by society in the common
interest of all it's members, and the COM
plete emancipation of the socially USE
full classes from the domination of cap
italism.
The solidarity OF labor connecting
the millions of class-conscious fellow
workers throughout the civilized world
will lead to international socialism, the
brotherhood of man.
These extracts should sufficiently cor
roborate Brother Dixon's contentious
and the fact that the followers and sup
porters of Debs aim at common owner
ship" and brotherhood of man."
These two objects may allure the un-
thinking, but let it be remembered that
for 1000 years the golden rule has been
most beautiful precept but nary
practice.
SO with these two objects, however
beautiful they may be as precepts. they
can never be put into practice. Let the |
delegates to Cincinnati, let Populists
everywhere, consider these absurdities
of Socialism, separate the chaff from the |
wheat, give no heed to Dreams bur cling |
fast to the practical teachings of Popu-
lism. = n

ciaD-Jndge Cant In the district court has
decided that the courts have a right to
intervene In the fight over the reorganixa-
lion OF the Populist county committee by
z. r. Austin recently. The matter came
up In special term a week ago on the in
junction suit brought by the members of
the old committee, who were accused of
leaning toward the Midroad idea, against
the reorganized committee. The new COM
mlttee oemurred to the complaint on the
ground that 1t was merely family affair.

A TERRIBLE WARNING.

(From the Cambridge, Ohio, SUM-
There was man who was too stingy
to subscribe for his home paper, so sent
his little son to neighbor to borrow
one. AS the boy was going home he
fell down and broke his leg. The father
heard his cries and ran out to see what
was the matter, but slipped and fell, dis
locating his knee and tearing the bosom
out of his ten dollar pantaloons. His
wife ran to his assistance, leaving two
year-old baby on the floor. The baby
crawled out and fell down the we'll,
while the mother was fishing the child
out the house caught fire and was totally
destroyed. Moral-Now is the time to

ONE CAUSE OF STARVATION.

India Attains Gold Standard Throuxh
Continued Closure Of the Mfnts De-
spite Famine.
CALCUTTA, March 21.-In Introducing
the budget today the financial member Of
the India council, Clinton Dawkins, alluded
to the enormous flow Of gold Indiaward. He
said 1t had been decided to coin an addi-
tional million of silver rupees. In spite OF
the famine, he added the country had at
tained the gold standard through the con-
tinued closure of the mints and the ordi-
nary operations Of trade. without adding to
the Indebtedness of India, and the uncer-
tainty in regard to the falling and changing
of the rate of exchange having become q
thing OF the past.
No wonder England desires to ex-
tend her blessed and benign institutions
over the two republics of South Africa.
They are not yet starving, but let the
good work 60 on. Id.

A CANDID ADMISSION.

There will BE Few States Represent
ed ut the Sioux Falls Fusion Con-
ventiOn.
Aberdeen, s. D., April 2O-Chairman
Kidd OF the Populist state central commit
tee, denies the report that the Sioux Falls
Populist convention will not be we'll attend
ed on account of a majority Of the states
sending delegates to the rival convention
at Cincinnati. He says he has letters to
back his assertion that there will be a big
crowd, but at the same time he specifies
but f@w states that are sure to send dele
cations.
We do not believe, from what we saw
and heard in the South, that there will
be Is real Populist delegates from the
whole Southern country to the Sioux
Falls convention. The whole fusion
game is confined to Kansas, Nebraska,
Minnesota and Iowa, and their repre-
sentatives will be ONCE holders or ONCE

committee in that county and the implied
1mputation that they had not been sufficient; !;
~ energetic. Each of them resigned from
the state central committee and declared
himself Populist no longer, but a Demo-
crat henceforth.
Our readers will remember Frank N.
Stacy, who was SO greatly in favor of
fusing the Populists with the Democrats
In the 18th of June, 1898, convention.
They can see from the above where he
has landed. He perceives that the fus-
ion Populists are dying out; that there
is nothing to hold them together but the
hope of office; he knows that the real
Populists will have nothing to do with
him, and the Democrats are the acting
spirit of fusion, and, therefore, he goes
squarely over to Democracy.
This Is the natural consummation and
conclusion OF s. M. Ovens declaration:
I'VE all think alike, and should all
march under one banner" to-wit: the
banner of Grover Cleveland and Bu-
chanan.
Let those who believe Democracy ia
right initiate the three gentlemen named
above, and have the manliness to avow
themselves Out-and-out Democrats; and
no longer sneak around Populist conven-
tions under the pretense that they be-
long to the Peoples party. Id.

HALF SCOTLAND DEER PARKS.

London Times: A recent parliamentary
return gives some startling figures in re-
lation to Scotch deer forests. The re-
turns relate to the six highland crofting
counties only-the counties of Argyll, In
verness, Ross and CrOmarty, Sutherland,
Caithness, Orkney and Shetland. In the Ork-
ney and Shetland islands there are no deer
forests, so we have practically to deal with
four counties. In these four counties there
are no less than 2,287.297, or more than
2,500.OO0 acres given to the preservation
Of deer. Foresting has proceeded apace
during recent years. Since 1883 nearly
6OO, 900 acres have been added to the for
est acreage. The whole area of Scotland
in acreage is about 19,500.0 900; it follows,
that reckoning the forest in four counties
alone. one acre in every eight and a half
is kept waste for the rearing of deer.
In order that on a few days in the year
a few persons may enjoy the killing Of
Z certain number Of these beautiful ami
mails this vast. area Is, for the most part,
sealed against the intrusion of man. No
keepers may set foot on mountain or glen.
The total area under 'tillage in Scotland is
about 3,50O,O0O. H. therefore, allowance
is made for the forests in other highland
counties, 1T seems probable that the total
acreage Of deer forests are assessed to
rates at over $500. 900. Certainly the subject
with which Mr.. Bryce now and again es-
sayed to deal is one which grows In i'm
portance every year. III n
This is a terrible showing, and it
would seem as If nothing but an armed
revolution could overthrow such hor-
rible conditions !, ,t
It is fearful shame to see SO able and
noble race as the Scotch driven on the
soil of their own country, and the land
given up for deer parks for the enter
tainment OF few aristocrats, who think
there is no higher end in life than
slaughtering harmless wild animals.
