CHE WILL MAKE GOOD


States senate placing all articles con-
troled by trusts upon the free list no
condition as now exists would he
known as millionaires by the thou
sands and paupers by the hundreds of
thousands struggling for existance-
with few people having so much
money they do not know what to do
with it, and SO many with so little that
they do not know what to do for the
want of it.
The people are demanding from the
lawmakers OF our country that they
pass laws without iokers, and we want
doughnuts without a hole, that all men
and corporations shall stand on an
equal before the law and the courts,
regardless of their financial standing
or political influence. Then, and not
| until then, will the Lord ) prayer be
effective ION earth asst is in Heaven.
AS an illustration, Mr.. Child makes
the following proposition to Mr. Mar,
tin, who has represented South Da-
kota in congress for the last twelve
| years and is supposed TO protect the
farmers, businessmen and lahorer' 5
interests in congress, and not the
| people who own stock in manufacture
| ing establishments In the eastern
| states or anywhere else.
| have eight or ten farms and ! Will
| give to the republican party or the
| special interests one-thlrd oil al the
produce raised on these farms, Ge,
livered to the nearest railroad station,
if they will allow me to sell the re
naming two-thirds on the market free
from any duty or tax, and | Will con
slider that have made a deal better
than any horse trade | ever made il
my life. Therefore, | contend with the
tariff removed, two thirds OF my pro
ducts will return Is much to me- Is M
whole crop will under present con
/, ditions. And ii the government vii
prohibit the transportation companie'
from charging the people any more
, tariff than would pay the interest at
per cent on lctual cost besides running
and maintaining the railroad, | vii
give one half of every thing | raise OF
these farms. | will give good bone
to guarantee my part OF the trdnsac
tion.
+ Now Mr.. Farmer. business and la
tboring man can you see what become
of vour labor. Every thing that is con
trolad hy supply and demand ha, de
lcreased in value about 81 ! } per cen
and everything which l. protected ant
controlled by the trust has advance,
about 3 l-3 per cent in the last ii
months could buy more comfort
If life when wheat was l0c than | can
now with wheat at T0t, by - per cen
in favor of the 40c wheat.
We will all join hands and vote TO
