THE republican party, as an organi
cation. will come out as plainly on the
side OF the trusts as it did on the side
of the gold standard. Just now it pre-.
tends to be opposed to trusts in certain
respects, just as it used to favor 1.-THE
coinage of the American product, u
consistent bimetallism'' and other
things mildly expressed. 1t will not be
many years, however. until their plat
form will declare boldly that trusts are
a great benefit TO the country and
the people and that the American ma,
ton needs them in commercial transac.
tions. In the race for plumber the re-
publican party has lost sight of every.
thing but the Almighty dollar.

CHAIRMAN JOHN MCGREGOR of the
Barber county central committee has
called a meeting of the committee fol-
September 9TH to arrange for a county
convention to nominate a county print
er. In his letter of>advice he states that
Barber county POpullstS and Demo
Gratis will unite in that county as usual,
though he does not say on what basis.
The additional expense under this new
law providing for the election is very
heavy and the people of that county are
very wroth against the representative
who arranged for it and the party which
forced it upon them. The law was pas
sed in the hope that the Republican pa.
per would be selected to fill the place.
The Populists now have a majority of
the county commissioners. This meet
ing will be watched with interest from
over the state.-Topeka Advocate.

1t is very unfair for politi-
clans to talk about the "aver-
age wages" when they are de-
nouncing strikers. When you
come to sitting the matter
down, average" doesn't spell
anything. There are a few
high salaried officers and
some extraordinarily skilled
laborers who receive magnifi-
cent wages, but when it comes
down to the common toiler,
he gets only a paltry sum and
suffers all the abuses incident
to company stores, company
rentals, long hours, absolute
dependency, insults, and ev-
erything in the monopolistic
category, that goes to make
liberty loving Americans mis-
cradle. Yet with all these i'm
positions, the press and the
political claquers for place,
power and pelf will sound the
praises of capital and spout
forth the old-time hog-wash,
labor ought to be satisfied. !"
The fact is that labor is liv-
ing from hand to mouth.
There is no freedom, no luxu.
ry, nothing to draw from in
case of sickness and no assur-
ance of a comfortable old age.
There is nothing unnatural
in strikes bnt it does seem
queer that the industrial mas
SEES still refuse to Vote for re-
lief.

says: my brother was very low with
malarial fever and jaundice. per-
suaded him to try Electric Bitters, and
he was soon much better, but continued
their use until he was wholly cured. ]
am sure Electric Bitters saved his life. -

Governor Stanley has dies

Governor Stanley has des-
ignated Monday, September
2nd, as Labor Day. His proc
lamation is a piece of bun
combe. When we take into
consideration the present
strikes and general labor dis
turbances, his twaddle about
"the most friendly relations
between labor and capital is
extremely silly. How long
will the laboring people DE
jollied by such boquets from
men in high official positions.

The state board of equaliza.

this rather than to raise the

same year is a big dose. There

We notice as we go along
that some of the fellows who
were the loudest prosperity
croakers a year ago are howl
ing to beat the band these
days about the hard times.
The way that they were
boasting then indicated that
they we're fixed for several
years at least, but 10 and be-
hold one drouth brings them
down to a place where they
realize that they aren't so
prosperous after all. Theory
and talk are far different than
the actual fact. The Ameri-
can people are face to face
with serious conditions and it
will require years of earnest,
patriotic methods to change
them. One election won't do
it, and the longer the pres
ent system is prolonged the
worse will it be to overcome
its effects. The drouth has
reminded many people that
their condition is not what
the politicians told them it
was. The masses are simply
living from hand to mouth.
