JONES AND HIS COTTON BALE.


The composite chairman of the Popu-
list Democracy, Senator Jones Of Arkan-
sas. is still %resenting with considerable
heat the charge that since he is such an
important officer of the American Cotton
Company capital $7,000,000; John e.
Scarles, lately treasurer Of the sugar
trust, grand moguD. it must be that he
is a high priest in the trust temple, or,
at least, that he is a reckless, abandoned
plutocrat. To do Mr.. Jones entire jus
tice, we suppose that the American Cot
ton Company is not a vicious trust which
deserves to be destroyed. any more than
a number of other corporations of ST.
100000 capital in the hands Of former
officers Of more ~monopolistic trusts. Pre-
sumably the American Cotton Company
will make all the money it can. will make
dividends, indeed, upon its $1,000, 900 Of
stock. Mr.. John e. Searles can be trust
ed to look after a little thing like that,
ever II Mr.. Jones devotes all of his at
.~tention for the next three months, or for
the next three years, for that matter, to
Populist Democratic politics exclusively.
The phase Of Mr.. Jones' connection
with the American Cotton Company
which we would like him to explain is
this, rather: How much of the $1,000.
900 Of the stock of the company has he
got. how did he get it. and what did he
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1900-09-27

give for it? Is his name, undoubtedly
an eminent one in some quarters, used In
the board Of directors as q bait to catch
investors? Did Mr.. Jones himself pay
par In cash money" for the stock that
he holds? Is his possession Of 1t, or any
part Of 1t, due to the fact that he is i'm
1uential In the finance committee Of the
United States Senate, md by virtue of
his position there could do his company,
or Mr.. Searles', or almost n company
Of the kind In which he or Mr.. Searles
might have an interest, a very important
service at a very critical time?
We have never known a gentleman Of
Mr.. Jones' financial prospects to grow
rich suddenly except by some means Of
this kind. In other words, and to be
plain, it is fair to infer, until Mr.. Jones
denies it, that he Is 'it," neither on ac-
count of his cash. nor his property, nor
some invention of demonstrated value,
but rather IN account of his pull" or his
swing. We say that 1t is fair to infer
this until Mr.. Jones denies it, because
Mr.. Jones. by reason of his unjust Mt
tacks upon leading Republicans puts
himself very much in the public eye and
invites attack from any quarter. Mr..
Jones has no business to live in a glass
house with perfect safety If he is going
to keep throwing such large stones.

WaO Is MARK HANNA?
Who is this Marcus Hanna. pa.
That people call him great?
Is he the mar who holds the helm
Which guides the ship Of state2

" ~ NAS ShAp VI oluIG !
Is he like old Goliath tall
Like some steeple in the sky,
Or. is he that awful wicked man
Who winks the other eye?
Tut, tut, my son. he's just a man
Like good old Reuben Blue,
Who has his way of doing things,
And knows a thing or .two!
But why does Bryan hate him SO,
And Popocrats berate?
Is it because he's old and slow,
And isn't up to date?
Oh. no. my son, you bet your life
He not SO very slow.
For when his shoulders to the wheel
The cart is bound to. 90.
The renson why the Popocrats
Now tremble Mt his name,
Is cause he did it to 'em once
Ans goin' to do the same
Again this fall. and bury deep
aBill Bryan and his host
In some dark place where Tagal clan.
Forever more will roast.
Where boiling oil. bolos and spears
And Aguinaldos dwell
A place. my son. so hot and bad,
Its name ] must not tell.
