On the tenth of December a Nation al Secret Organization was formed in Cnicago by representatives from nearly every State in the Union. Over 2, 000 charters for Local Organizitions will be sent out in January and every State will be organized by May 1st and a most bitter campaign will be fought during the summer.

Harvey, ol Chicago and Senator Barline of Neva-da are at the head of this noble order. Since September a persistent and thorough canvass of every county in the United States has been in progress and thousands of letters were sent out to the sympathetic leaders of all par. ties from Harvey's office in the For Dearborn buildiug at 186 Clark St. The letter most extensively circulated one of which Hon.

Give the name of no one who is not reliable and earnestly attached to our cause. We do not warn the name of anyone who is partisan or who is likely to follow his party should it go wrong on this question.

The names we do want are those who would bolt their party in case it dared in favor of the present financial policy of the government or iquivqcated on the subject.

Boys there is going to be another bond issue. It has got to come. The Treasury is at the mercy of the hooknosed Shy loiks and their agents, and bonds they want and bonds they will have.

Good times are comiDgb js, look out for em. Farm era Advocate. The plutocrats are relying on the corrupting power of money to control the election mxt year; it is already being fluug in the face of the Populists that they have no money and therefore cannot carry a campaign to a sue ceesful issue. We' will admit that money is a great power in the land, a power that to be dreaded by all patriots, but we think bard times have been carried too near the starvation point not to awaken the people; the galling chains have been felt by too many, and plutocracy must go.

East Texas Reformer. One of the Rothchilds says that America is the pace to make money for the next five years. America has been the place to make money for the last thirty years; the only question iB lor whom? It is evident that it was not the producers who made the money, and Rothcbild did not have them in view when he made the prediction accredited to him. There can be no question that the ilhchilds and there ilk will pocket mil.jons in this country during the next five years if our government continueadn its present finan' cial policy Staats Zsitung, Kansas City, Kan.

EveD Wolcott and Teller are idle, but then Ttllers throat ia sore. Democrat, Durango, Col. Why are working men slaves?

How can wage slavery be abolished? By substituting for it industrial cooperation. What is the difference between a corporation and co-operation? A corpororatiou is the combination of a few to fliece many; whereas cooperation is a combination of many to enrich each. What is a financier? One who coins the earnings of others.

Why do the manuficturers of the Uuited States want to encourage the production of wheat and tton in Asia and the Argentine Rpuolic by adhering to the gold standard? Because they think the cheaper farm products are the less it will cost them for raw materials. Why do the manufacturers in this country think it is a good thing to have the Asiatic able to sell cloth, which costs them ten cents a yard to manufacture, for five cents a yard, in London and New York on account of the difference of exchange and why do they want to exclude the manufactu-ries of this country from China and Japan? Because goods costing ten cents per yard to produce in the United States must be sold for twenty cents per yard in China and Japan to get even on account of the same difference of exchange. Why do manufacturers in Europe and America rejoice because China and Japan are able to manufacture for themselves and will soon be able to i-upply the market of Europe and A-merica, by reason of the advantage they have of abundant silver money, which prevents falling prices? Can it be possible that they intend to degrade the laboring classes of the Western World below the level of Asiatic coolies? If it he true as English writers contend that the difference of exchange is a tariff in favor oi the Orient of a-bout one hundred per cent how do the manufacturers of this country expect to continue operations against Asiatic competition? Why does Cleveland bury all selfish considerations, and insist that the laboring man shall receive gold dollars, or no dollars at all? Because he knows that if gold dollars are the only dollars, there is no danger of any dollars swindling the laboring man, by Jura ishing the money to buy bread for his family. Why Is ii? How do the people of the United States pay foreign balances? By increasing foreign obligations at the rate of more than three hundred millions a year.

Because if money is used for that purpose it will produce bankruptcy at home and he disastrous to both foreign and domestic trade. Why do the gqjdites contend that the United Slates ought to have the state kind of moiey as Europe? Because they despise the people of the Uuited States and want a strong government to suppress them after the European Model, Why do the Republicans assume that they will regain power in 1896? Because they believe that Cleveland's administration has disgusted the people so badly that they will -return to their former persecutors for relief for present evils as they did in 1892. Why do the manufactures of the East want protection from the competition oi China and Japan when they are ruining the farmers and planters by competition with the silver standard countries? Because they are' not aware of the fact that stability of prices and the difference of exchange, which developed the production of wheat and cotton, is also developing manufacturing which must in the near future be as destructive to the mill-and factories in this country as it has been to the pursuits of agriculture. Why do protectionists adhere to the gold standard? Because it protects As-tatic labor against competition with the labor of this country. Why do the manufacturers of this country prefer to protect Asiatic labor by the difference of exchange which is a tariff in favor of the Orient and tax on American production Because, they are in accord with Cleveland's i- It was reported last Monday that a grave ia Roehester Cemetery had been robbed of its dead.

Investigation proved that the report was a fact, and that the body of Mrs I. O. Van Fleet bad been crnely snatched from its last resting place. Mr Van Fleet without delay swore oat a warrant, and a search made for the body. When the news reached the already excited people that the body had been found in the Medioal College others who had laid loved ones away, bean to investigate and soon the terrible fact was revealed that the bodies of Mrs Lillis, and of Mrs A.

L. Dake were in the dissecting room. A joint meeting of all the A. O. D.

Lodges in the city was called which could be truly called an indignation meeting. By this time the great, mighty and good Govtrnor, fearing that the grave robbers would be mole sted. called oat the state Militia to protect them, and afterwards seeing what a stupid blonder he had made, offend a reward of $3(0. for the robbers. As we go to press excitement is still at its heigbth and threats of calling on Judge Lynch is not at all uncommon County Attorney Harry Saf-ford is determined to ferritt ont the das tardly villians who have thns dared to invade the last resting place of the cherished dead.

The members of the Faculty have refused to tell anything as yet, and the feeling is strongly in favor of arresting the entire outfit.
