KOW TO KAK VOTES.
Ponulists often tret out of vi
. -it
tience and angry with their neigh
bors, because they will persist in
voting to make themselves and
their children serfs and peasants.
It is often the fault of the populist
himself that his neighbor contin
ues to vote for less money and
more misery. If every populist
would make it a point to give to
hi? neighbor every good economic
article he comes across or send him
a sound populist paper the shylocks
and bank rings would soon be
overthrown.
Reflect a little on what these old
party voters have been told by their
leaders.
A few days after Carlisle was
sworn into office, the bankers of
Wall street invited him to a great
feast, at Delmonico's, the same
as they had roster and Win
dom, his predecessors. At
that feast he made a speech in
which he said:
Till ! If cut unit powerful gowmnipnt, but
tlicru arc some tilings It ciimiot ! It nimiot
niukv money. ,
Last winter when Cleveland and
Sherman tried to force a bill through
congress authorizing the issue of
gold bonds, Wm. M. Springer
summoned before his committee on
banking and currency,all the heads
of the Wall street ring and their sup
porters to give testimony to be
used on the floor of the house in
advocacy of the national banks,
the destruction of greenbacks and to
issue interest bearing gold bonds
One of these witnesses, Mr. llor
ace White, editor of the English
owned New York Times usud this
language:
The greenback tem b 'olf ui believe Jl.
They create the belief that the Kovernmcnt j,
make money, than wblvb a)norediiiiiat!lnj1ieneTer

As the government of the United
States prohibits, under the most
severe penalties, any person under
its jurisdiction from making money
or anything in the similitude of it,
and as it is a fact that we do have
such a thing as money, it must
come into existence spontaneously
or fall down from heaven as the di
rect gift of God.
One of the latest publications of
Wall street, which is heartily en
dorsed by Mr Horace White, has
the following paragraphs:

iibtiilnuble than ever before In the world'? hlotory.

If there is an authority upon the
production of gold in the whole
world, that authority is Prof. Ed
ward Suess, professor of geology
at the University of Vienna and
member of the Austrian Parlia
ment, lie says in his work, The
Future of Silver, page 8i.

Other statements like the follow

These are fair samples of the
argumcitsr.nl o called statistics
which the Wall street gang of
bankers are printing by the million
copies and circulating over this
the country. Editors, who profess
to lie decent citizens, work them
over in their editorials and whoever
refuses to believe them is branded
as a crank and silver lunatic. Was
there ever be'ore seen fiich a sight
on earth?-
Millions of voters in the United
States have no other kind of read
ing matter than this and of course
t'n y continue to vote the old party
ticket. If the reader really wants
to serve his country, save what lit
tle be has left and provide lor his
children something better than
peasantry and serfdom, he an
best, do it by getting such papers
as the I M'l ri M'i i into the homes
of lln- people.

It is only fair to say that there is '
a considerable minority in the so
cialist party who wish to make wear
ing apparrel private property and
exempt it from state ownership,
but they are constantly attacked
by the others with great bitterness,
who say that that is leaving just
enough seed of the present system
alive to grow until the whole de
mand of socialism would be over
thrown even if once established. ,
This common ownership of prop
erty would destroy the family as it
now exists and all the great social
ist authorities so declare- snd en
dorse and defend the proposition.
If a man had nothing he could call
his own, how could he control his
children. Their food, their cloth
ing, their teachers, their associates
would be chosen for them, not by
their father, but by some despotic
central authority, called the state.
Some of the theories advocated by
the great socialistic leaders cannot
be printed in a decent family paper
like Thk Independent. They
generally sum up their arguments
with this statement:
Woman will never Ire free until she hua the law
ful riM to chooae the father of her own children
Untill lately they have been satis-
lied to make their fight upon the
"Tenth plank" as above quoted,
but now, both in this country and
in Europe, they are demanding that
their therones shall ve more plain
ly stated in thier party platforms.
The cablegrams printed in last
Sunday's papers announce that the
German socialists demand that
some of the details of their system
shall hereafter put in their plat
iocm. They are as follows:
The resolution a I no demand that tbe iclaliU
deputies be called upon to Introduce a meaaure
placing women In every way upon the mtrne legal
footing aa man, with no political or other dirabill
tiei. Another proponed measure la one abolishing
tbe laws placing unmarried women and their off
spring In an Invldloua position before the law.
The following from the same ca
blegram shows where leading so
cialists stand on another question
and they must stand there, for if
all property is owned in common
and every man is under the direc
tion of the state, it could not well
detail men to go and preach some
sort of religion and make a creed
for them. The cablegram says:
It Is pretty well understood Unit several leading
delegate! are re solved to again make an attempt to
bring the religious question to the front and ask
the congress to atllrm that religion Is inimical lo
the siH-lullst spirit and thut the party Is ready lo
light every form of religious faith.
The placing of "unmarried wo
momen and their offspring," in the
same position as those married and
to "fight every form of religious
faith ' is a logical necessity of so
cialist doctrines. The principle of
socialism once adopted and these
things must follow.
To call the public ownership of
railroads, telegraphs, street fran
chises waterworks, gas and elec
tric lights, socialism, is rank non
sense. All that belongs to another
system, which is the very antipode
of socialism. . That is co-operation
under state direction.' Under so
cialism, a man would be selected
and ordered to act as motor man,
and he would have to do it. Under
co-operation the motor man would
be paid a salary, and if he did not
like the pay or the work he could
quit. His salary would be his own
private property, and and he could
spend it as he pleased.
Wherever co-operation has been
tried under the guidance of honest
and capable men it has succeeded.
Socialism in every instance has
failed.
The men who wrote the Omaha
platlorm well understood the differ
ence bet wen these two systems.
There a not a word in the platform
that can be twisted into meaning
socialism, but it provides a wise
and statesmanlike wa to largely
increase co-operation. This paper
was established to defend the prin
ciples ol the Omaha plattorm and
it is going to do it. That platform
instead of being radical and social
ist!' is i Ntreincly conservative and
'is ?athr behind the pognss ol
the age than in advance ol it.

Woolsey says that socialism and
communism are synonymous eco
nomic terms and he so uses them,
giving the following deflinition.
It in a system or form of government in which
the right of property la abolished by law,
mutual consent or vow. To this community of
goods may be added the disappearance of family
life In which, whether the family system is retained
or not, the family U no longer the norm, according
to which tbe subdivisions of tbe community, if
there are any, are regulated.
HI0HE8T PEICES EVEB OOWK.
Any one undertaking to discuss
economic problems must . remem
ber that in that science as in all
other sciences the apparent is the
false and the truth is the opposite
of it.
When the farmer goes to town
and buys twenty pounds of sugar
for $i, or a yard of calico for six
cents, he thinks they are cheap,
where as he is payfng more
for them than he ever did
before in all his life. When
wheat was $2 a bushel he
could get twenty pounds of sugar
fcr one bushel of wheat. Now, tor
one bushel of wheat he can only
get eight pounds, so he is paying
more than twice as much for his
sugar than ever did. It is the
dearest sugar he ever ate.
vVhen corn was fifty cents a
bushil and calico ten cents a yard,
he could five yards of calico for a
bushel of corn. Now he can only
get three yards of calico for a
bushel of corn. Those calico
dresses are dearer than they ever
were,
In the last analysis, producers do
not buy with money. They buy
with the products of their labor
It is only to facilitate exchanges
that they use money. They pay
for what they buy with corn, wheat,
cotton, etc., and they give more of
these things for what they buy now
than the producing class was ever
before compelled to pay. To the
producer, the present prices are
the highest prices in all the history
of the world since the dark ages
Vet the most of them think they
are the lowest.
To Brother Jasper the sun, iu
relation to the earth, appeared to
move. It was no use for the scient
ist to try to convince him that it
did not. He continued to preach
that "the sun do move." It is the
same standard of intelligence that
claims that the gold standard and
dear money really gives cheap
goods to the producers. Some of
them know better, but most of
them have wheels in their heads.
8ENAT0B ALLISON.
Senator Allison performed the nup
tial ceremoney uniting the two old
parties in Iowa at Marshaltown on
Sept. 26th, by declaring that "both
the old parties are practically in
accord on the money question
The papers announce that "Des
Moines sent a delegation of 500 and
other cities contributed their quota"
to witness the ceremonies. Of all
the candidates on the republican
party for the presidential nomina
tion, Allison is the most to be de
spised. He has been a cowardly
straddler all his life, only waiting
for a chance to sell us out to the
banks.
GOLD V8. IROS.
"(iold has not the intrinsic value
of iron." We have seen this sen
tence in the editorials of severa
populist papers. Now for heaven's
sake, dear brothers of the quill,
don't talk that way any more,
Neither gold or iron have "intrin
sic value." There is no such thing
as "intrinsic value" in anything.
Value is an extrinsic relation. It
is an idea. What is the value of
anything t it is what some man or
J men think it is worth. What tin y
1 think is an idea. Now there are no
j ideas inhering in either gold or
, iron. There is ten or a hundred
j times more "utility" in iron than
1 gold, but gold is many thousand
j times more valuable than iron .4 ml
'it is rediculous to deny it.

JUDGE ICAXWELL'S AGE.
The candidacy of 1 udge Maxwell
has been pretty well canvassed by
the press of the state. Nearly
every papr has had its say on the
subject, the populist papers all
endorse it with vigor and enthusi
asm and many of the democratic
papers follow along in the same
line. A few republican papers,
while not saying so outright, give
indications that they will support
him.
It is when we come to the
straight republican corporation,
boodle sheets that the thing gets
most interesting. They cannot
attack either Judge Maxwell'spub-
hc record or private character.
Both are unassailable, so they are
forced to confine themselves to
writing squibs about his age. To
read some of these items one would
be led to think that Judge Max
well was born some time before
the revolutionary war.
The fact is, Judge Maxwvll is
either younger or but a year or two
elder than most of the great nation
al leaders of the repuqlican party.
He is two yers younger than John
Sherman, fifteen years younger than
Senator Morrill and but one year
older than Senator Hoar.
These three great leaders have
more influence on party manage
ment and on legislation than any
three men in the republican party.
If they are not unfitted 011 account
of their age from performing the
duties of offices requiring much
harder work, and which in every
way are vastly more important
than is a supreme judgeship in the
state of Nebraska, how does it
come, that Judge Maxwell, who is
fifteen years younger than one of
them, two years younger than an
other and only one year older than
the third, is disqualified by age?
When the republican editors of
Nebraska begin to say that Senator
Hoar is in his dotageand that John
Sherman is a senile old man and
ought to retire to private life, they
will have some excuse for writing
squibs about Judge Maxwell's age.
. The fact is that the men who are
most active and influential in guid
ing the great parties and in formu
lating legislation in the United
States are all older than Judge
Maxwell or about his age. John
Sherman is 72, Senator Morrill 85,
Senator Hoar 69, Senator l'rye 64,
Senator Stewart 68, Senator Jones
65, Senator Morgan 71, Senator
Pugh 75, Senator Allison 64, Sena
tor Palmer 78, Senators Cameron
and Quay 62, Representative Wal
ker of Massachusetts, the most
active fighter for the gold standard
and National banks in the whole
House is 76, while Randall of the
same state is 71, Senators Harris
of Tennessee and Turpie of Indi
ana are so old that . they are
ashamed to put their ages in the
Congressional directory.
There is no sense, reason or sin
cerity in the printed accounts of
the corporation papers, telling of
the horror with which the editors
look upon Judge Maxwell's age.
They are told to write it and they
obey orders.
ONE LONE L08T POP.
The State Journal professes to
have discovered one lone pop who
has returned to the republican
party, and it rejoices with exceed
ing great joy. It says:
Hut such occurrences do not hurt the feelings of
any genuine republican. The republican parly
welcomes all former mp who have seen the error
of their ways buck lo tbe true fold, and is content
to see as many of them In republican cniivciilions
as pnii-lhl.
The State Journal is welcome to
all the pops who want to support
the corporations, the shylocks and
the lenks. The populist party
has no use lor them, but at the
same time it is giving a hearty
greeting to the thousands of re
publicans who have become dis
gusted with the gang of defaulting,
jembczimg. thieving, nngsters
who have been robbing tin state,

of this paper.
The State Journal is exceedingly
angry because the Irish threaten to
get up a new revolution. As a guar
dian of British interests in this
country it has a perfect right to get
mad. The Plattsmouth News says that
the Nebraska City sleuths can't
capture a criminal who walks right
into their arms and confesses his
crimes. Its the turn of Nebraska
City papers to make a remark next.
A Policeman in Sioux City took
a boy to a barn and robbed him of
five dollars. Will a partizan court
acquit that policeman? If it fol
lows the decisions of the supreme
court of Nebraska it will decide
that it was only "an error of judg
ment." John R. McLean of the Cincin
nati Enquirer got control of the
New York Morning Journal and
undertook to talk free silver to the ..
denizens of Wall street. After'
spending $250,000 he gave it up as
a bad job and went back home.

Thirteen banks were closed in
the state of Missouri last week. A
good many people are begining to
realize that the pops were not as

when the said wild and woolypops
demanded the establishment of
postal savings banks.
Rosewatek gave the "howling
dervishes" nominated by the re
publicans in Douglas county the
other day an awful roasting. He
took them one by one and did them
up brown before he took off the
Bee's toasting fork. Rosey is going
iii heavy on the nonpartizan line
this year.
Congressman Dave Mekcek is
not only in favor of partizan judges
but of partizan schools. In his
speech at the state convention he
paid a high tribute to the characters
of the nominees for regents and
said that one of them, Mr. Gould,
was in favor of educating children
along republican lines.
Always pay your debts in the
very best money. The best money
is that which, as time advances,
becomes no dearer and no cheaper,
so that neither debtor or creditor
will be dispoiled by it. With such
money the world be would trans
formed. That is the kind of money
that populists believe in. That is ,
honest money. That is sound
money.
