prosperity a prosperity now closing in undigested bonds and the governments inability to longer keep the banks afoat with money collected by taxing the people.
 And. now these taXless profit mongers - bankers, employers, manufacturers and merchants, supported by the decrees of the people have formed a national combine to see that no producer escapes without paying fifty per cent. more for the privilege of living than he did ten years ago.
 Eleven million farmers produce $6, GOO, GOO, GOO; seven hundred thousand manufactures produce ,Sl6, GOO, 100000; and three and one-half million laborers get S4,- GOO, GOO, 900 in wages. That IS, the manufacturers have a yearly income of S6,OOO, ,000,OOO more than all the producers combined. If the farmers double their prices and the laborers double their wages the manufactures double their prices and then have S12,- 900, 900, 900 more than both the farmers and laborers.
 Finding no hope in the doubling process, and knowing so long as they remain apart, the middle man will rob the farmer by small prices (the laborer by small wages and both of them by selling back to them the finished products which both have made, neither owns, and each must have) the Kansas Farmers Union unani- mously adopted and the Kansas Federation of Labor unanimously indorsed the following declara- tion of principles:
 The object of the Kansas Farmers Union shall be to give every man chance to enjoy his natural right to work and control his own product.
 This object shall be sought
 (a) By terminal facilities, manufactures, warehouses and warehouse certificates.
 (b) By the pro rata sharing of all profits arising from the manufacture and sale of all manu- factured goods; and the basis of such profit sharing shall be the market value of the farm or other raw materials used, the market value of the labor used in making the finished products S the money paid for any goods, and the inter- est on the capital necessary to establish and conduct the busi- ness.
 (c) By the exchange of goods by means of their respective union labels, and
 (d By buying and selling goods in quantity, and by any other means deemed wise by the Union.
 Of the working of this princi- pal, the following is a partial illustration:
 The trust gave the farmer g. 50 for enough tobacco to make a thousand cigars, and the labor CT $3. 50 for making them, and sold them for S25, or four and one-sixth ti2es as much as both producers received. When the producers shall make and Sell their own cigars and share the profits pro rata, the farmer will receive four and one-sixth times $2. 50 or $l0. .4l-the laborer, four and one-sixth times S3. 50 or $l4. 58. And this, without raising the price of tobacco, the price of wages or the price of cigars. and the trust, no longer able to rob,

 This way lies the Kingdom of Heaven on earth; but it is self evident that this work of provid- ing every man with a chance to work and control his own pro- duct, cannot be done by politics, by strikes, by the raising of prices or by the governments prosecuting the trusts, which are nothing but the result of it's own laws which help one man to legal ly rob another, or by any kind of coercion whatever; for, so long as the middlemen control what all men must have, they are the absolute masters of the world.

Ohio Senator objects to Leaving Out

Discharge Negro Troops.

Washington, Jan. IS. - The hope

Foraker resolution bearing on che
Brownsville riot received another
shock Immediately after the senate
convened Thursday. It was admins.
tered by Senator Blackburn, wha
when the resolution came before the
senate, offered an amendment ex
pressly disclaiming any intention to
Nuestion or deny the legal right OF
the president to discharge without
honor enlisted men Of the army Of the
United States"
Mr.. Foraker who had taken the
floor to conclude the speech begun
Wednesday said he certainly should
oppose the amendment. He had, he
said, supposed the compromise reso-
luton presented by himself Wednes-
day was satisfactory and he contend
ed that the consideration Of the ques-
ton Of the power Of the president
should be postponed until after the
investigation, He had not intended,
he added, to discuss the question Of
power, but the anendment seemed to
make It necessary for him to go In,
to that subject
Mr.. Moraker said he had been con
tending that the president was su.
preme az commander in chief to com
mommand. but could make regula-
tons only according 70 law. He
reviewed the positions taken by
Senator Knox, spooneF and Lodge
