port of the Wisconsin Dairymen's as
ISOLATION containing the proceedings,
papers, addresses and discussions at
the convention held in WATERFOWL last

in 1892. being the second oldest in
the United States and the present is
its 2Sth annual report. Including
index there are 222 pages and every
page has something on it which cam
not fail to be of interest to dairymen.
A copy of the report will be sent to

GREAT is TAMMANY.
Bryan's Connection with Croker
and Commercialism.
Source of the Revenue Which Adds
TO the Democratic Campaign
Eunds-An Infamous
Alliance.

One of the most remarkable attacks
ever delivered against Bryan was the
likening him to Satan " Carl Schurz
on September 5, 1896.
In his famous speech at the Central
Music hall, Chicago. Mr.. Schurz said:
Mr.. Bryan has a taste for Scrip
tural Illustration. He will remem-
Der how Christ was taken up on high
mountain and promised all the glo-
ries of the world if He would fall
down and worship the devil. He will
also remember what Christ answered.
So the tempter now takes the Amer
lean people up the mountain. and
says: 4 Will take from you half our
debts, if you will worship me- But
then. brave old Uncle Sam rises up in
all his dignity, manly pride, and hon
est wrath, and speaks in thunder
tones: Get thee behind me. Satan;
for it is written that thou shalt wor
ship the God of truth, honor and
righteousness. and Him alone shalt
thou serve. :"
Since 1856 Mr.. Schurz has become
one of those who has listened to the
voice of the same tempter he warned
the American people against in 1896.
Not for AL the glories of the world"
but for Infinitely cheaper reasons he
has fallen down to worship the one
who. in 1896. he pictured as akin in
his principles to Satan. Bryan is still,
as in 1896. the personification of the
doctrine-thou mayst steal from the
1alN of
from the farmer so per cent. of his
crop value.
Mr.. Schurz worships his new idol
with his face turned away. He is
ashamed 10 mention his name when
he gives testimony in his cause. But
by ''their works shall We know them"
and by his present works Mr.. Schurz
leaves no question in the public mind
whose servant he has become.
Mr.. Bryan has recently said: Great
is Tammany, and Croker is its
prophet"
He has. in these words. made an open
expression of his sympathy with the
political power which tends to make
of Greater New York he'll on earth.
The New York World (democratic)
has figured out that Cookers commit
tee is collecting S415oC00 year
through the police. as tax on crime.
and gives a list of the forms of vice,
and the average rate of tribute. which
is from SIS per month to 500 per week
each. as follows:

And this is the supply tank which
pours revenue into the campaign fund
of Bryan. Every dollar of it is tainted.
Every dime and evSy penny is smeared
with the viieness of the slums. harlot-
ries and criminal joints and dens of
New York city. This is the trust in
crime to which Carl Schurz has seen
fit to lend the responsibility of his

A ROAD TAX.

As we now have the oppor-
tunity to vote a road tax let US
see how this will affect our peo-
Pile OF Sharp county.
The assessed value of the prop
erty Of our county, both real and
personal, for the year 1899 was
81, 631, 1853. OF this amount the
Kansas City Railroad, telegraph
and express companies own
S211, 104, and other foreign cor
porations and capitalists which
reside out side Of the county and
state own at least enough to make
the whole amount OF property
owned by foreign capital the sum
of $500, 900. This sum deducted
from the total will show that the
people of Sharp county own ST.
331, 1853. If a three mills tax is
levied every one who owns 500
worth OF property will have to pay
thirty cents, on $500 he would
pay 81 80 and on $1,000 he would
be required to pay So. A three
mills tax on the total amount of
property in Sharp county would
raise the sum of 81, 895, and Of
this amount the railroad and
other foreign capital would pay
at least $1,000, and the merchants
and those who are engaged in
other pursuits than farming will
pay at least $1,000 more Of this
sum, leaving a balance of $3.50
to be paid by the farmers of
Sharp county.
1t is a fact that a great major
ity Of our tax payers pay taxes
on sums less than $500. and this
being the case a great majority
OF our farmers would be required,
if three mills road tax should
be levied, to pay less than S1.50.
While the farmers would be re-
quired to pay this sum the Kan
sas City railroad would be re-
CURED to pay over 5000 for the
same purpose. AS the law now
stands this company and all
other capital invested in Sharp
county do not pay one cent to-
wards keeping up our public
roads. At the same time if the
public roads are improved the
railroads especially are bene-
fitted. AN the farmers products
are handled by the railroads for
which they get Il handsome profit,
and every article which the farm
err buys from his merchant, he
pays tribute to the railroads; and
since this is the case it is the de-
mands Of justice that the rail-
roads should share the burden OF
the people in building and keep
ing up the highways Of our coun-
ty and state.
II o three mills road tax should
be levied by Sharp county $500
OF the 1896 would be paid by
parties who do not under our
present law contribute enc cent

! towards improving our public
highways, This is surprising
yet, an investigation Of this
statement will convince any rea'
sonable man that such is the
case; and this ratio will hold
good throughout the entire state
Under the new law the road
hands are only required to work
four days each year-reducing
the time one day for each person
subject to road duty. In the
place of this one days work, as
suming that we have 1900 road
hands, they are required to pay
81 1895, Allowing that each days
work on TIE road is worth to the
party doing the work 75c per
day, the 1900 days reduction
would be worth to the road hands
Of our county 81, 125. This sum
deducted from the 81 1895, the sum
which these road hands would be
required to pay as under a three
mills levy, will leave only 1910
which the road hands of Sharp
county would be required to pay
should a road tax be levied in
addition to the four days labor
required. In other words, the
road hands of Sharp county by
paying S270 in cash in addition
to the four days labor and 75c for
one day which they are not re-
CURED to give under the new law
they can add to the road fund of
the county the sum of S4,625.
Let the 1900 road hands in Sharp
county refuse to accept the four
days labor instead of five and pay
75c for the day not required to
labor under the new law and pay
in addition to the four days labor
S270, or a little over ten cents
apiece, and they deprive our
county Of S4,625 in money to be
invested in the roads Of our coun-
ty. In making the above de-
duction | disclaim any intention,
in doing so, of attempting to ar
ray the road working people
against capital invested in our
county. I am aware that this is
a very delicate question and in
presenting it in a manner that
will lead the masses Of our read.
ers to think seriously upon it, one
might be led to think that we
are disregarding any consider
alton for the large tax payers of
the county. Such is not the
case. | know that without the
cooperation Of the merchants and
other large property owners OF
the county, our efforts in this
movement will be in vain. On
this line | am pleased to say that
from a personal investigation, |
have been led to believe that a
very large majority Of those who
pay the bulk Of the taxes Of the
county will gladly welcome road
tax.
