Amrrican Ape.
K.j;tor Wealth MaKeiis:
Darwin'f "missing link" connecting
the lower organizations of animal life
and mankind ha brm discovered It
is a luxurious creature bcsricg so close
a resemblance to the human race, that
it has been mistaken for the genuine.
Like the parrot It has acquired the art
of eptecb, altho it has ..0 corresponding
brain power to analyze what It utters.
It never builds a home, but depends up
on human intelligence to construct it,
when It takes full possession. Itnevtr
work, work Is so "vulgar, you know,"
yet Solomon la all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these. It has
adoi.ud the habits of the human race
in regard to food, but depends upon the
kill of some of the human family to
prepare, cook and serve it. It travels
in "Yurrup" under the supervision of a
few trusty human attendants, and comes
back ft traveled monkey, but so very
English "you knew." It Is a very expen
sive and troublesome creature to care
for, but the American people have set
their hearts upoa patronizing It, and
no expense is spared to furnish it with
all the pomp, gilt and trappings of a
first c'aes royal menagerie. The dear
'poodle, the pet of the female ape,
whom ehe kisses and fondles In the' lap
of te- silks and satins, must have a
diamond necklace, for dear little
"Floramine' might feel slighted or
take cold "you know." How some of
the naked starving hnman waifs In our
great cities must long to be a poodle,
or if they do not aspire so high, how
they must long to be an ape, and have
every wish anticipated and every de
sire of their little hearts satisfied!
And some of the older people must at
times envy the ape. The homage he
enjoys from a majority of the American
people. The laws they enact to enrich
him. The faithful advocates he has In
Congress to protect hl Interest. The
great metropolitan press to elng his
praises, and the lesser ones to take up
the refrain until from editor in chief
of our great dallies down to a semi
weekly journal published In the Inter
est of a robber corporation, down again
to the vapid doggerel, inspired by a
small weekly stipend, the "driftwood"
of public sentiment extols tbe ape,
while stalwart manhood alive to the
aullering and danger that confronts the
-country, is weakly lampooned In still
weaker verse, and the appalling con
ditions ftf our fellow men are made the
subject of ribald jest
What profit or honor Is It to be a man
in these days of universal Idolatry of the
American ape? Where is the dignity of
labor, once the boast of our forefathers
when jackdaws like our present Secre
tary of Agriculture, elevated by favorit
ism regardless of fitness either of intelll
(fence or manhood to a position repre
senting one of Its most Important
branches, classifies the farmers as a
mass of incapables led by political
demagogues? And the press from Maine
to California reiterates his bombastic
utterances, as if they contained the wis
dom of a James and the wit of the most
celebrated fool that ever entertained
the the court of a sovereign.
No wonder Darwin failed to find the
"mising link." No scientist would
ever think of looking into a "brown
stone front," or in the portfolio of a
cabinet official to find it. It Is unques
tionably there, however, and will never
pass thro' the complete process of evo
lution; for even the instinct of an
American ape can grasp the fact, that
under the present condition of the hu
raao race his lot in life is far preferable
in his present state.
There may be a time in the future,
when the craze for ape worship shall
In a measure subside, and men begin to
think and investigate Independently for
themselves, and of the well being of
their common country, and of tbe dtep
and damning degradation tbe Image of
God is subjected to, to support in luxu
rious leisure a few thousand worse than
useless appendages that are not only
sapping the wealth, but the liberties
and manhood, of Washington's and Lin
coln's republic when this class will be
obliged to complete the evolutionary
process, or sink into the obscurity of
their natural place In tbe economy of
creation. Fraternally yours,

News we Like to Hear.
Ogalalla, Neu., Mar. 29, 1894.
Editor WKALTH MaKKBS.
Stnce the publication of my last letter
in The Wealth Makers, issue of
March 15th, I have received a number
of letters from old soldiers. Some of
them have simply been complimentary.
One was not so complimentary; it was
to tbe effect that 1 was a traitor to the
old soldiers because 1 had deserted tbe
old Republican party. This one, how
ever, had no signature, neither did It
contain any arguments, hence, is not
worthy of consideration.
Two others were written with what
I consider a spirit of true patriotism.
They declared in substance that they
bad been voting the Republican ticket
ever since the war of the rebellion.
One of them said he was a farmer, own
ed his own land which he had acquired
by homestead, that he and his boys had
worked hard, but for years past they
had not been able to gain anything, but
had "got a little farther behind every
year. Latfall, just before the elec
tlon, some one sent him some Indcpen
dent papers, among them The Alliance-Independent.
For a while he
would not read them.. But after tbe
fall election, as' he still occasionally
received The Alliance Independent
he thought he would read it one Sun
day, "just to see what tbe cranks had to
say." It seemed to be fair, aad he con
tinued to read. He had now made up
his mind, be said, that he would here
after "leave the old party behind and
vote with the People's party," believing
that in so doing he would better sustain
the principles for which he fought.
The other writer said that he was
running a livery barn; that he had baen
investigating the falling off In his busi
ness, and he veilly believed that it was
the result of the legislation of both eld
parties in the interest of the capitalist',
and that In future he would "have to
say good bye to the o'd party and vote
with the People's patty."
I was very much surprised a few days
ago to hear a neighbor cf mine an old
soldier say, that he was reading seme
Independent literature and that his
eyas were getting opened. Said he, "I
am now reading the Seven Financial
Conspiraces and I tell you that the Re
publican pirty has been rotten for
years. " Yet this old soldier, as well as
myself, had voted for it right alone,
without investigation, simply because
it was the Republican party, tho party
of our youth, and we had been educated
to believe that no other party could, or
would, do justice to the old Boldierg.
I tell you Mr. Editor, It don't make
any difference which one of the old
parties a man belongs to. or how strong
a partisan he is, if we can only get him
to read our side of the question and
listen to reason, he is sure to admit the
justness of our cause and will in the
end vote with us.
Let the good work go on, scatter your
paper over the land all you can, and
let us all place our shoulders to the
wheel and do what we can.
(Judge) John W. Wilson.
Beware ot tbe Bonds.
Editor Wealth Makers:
The Journal has announced that the
Wall Street privates will resell a block
of the worthless bonds lately sold by
Benedlot Arnold Carlisle to the school
fund of Nebraska at coit. This does
not surprise the Popullsta who warned
the world by court proceedings that
these bonds were illegal and would
never be paid if issued. Tbe leading
banker of Waj uo, Nebraska, a month
since was engaged at the nefarious
business of reselling these worthless
bonds at cost "at cost" means a loss of
at least three per cent. Can it be that
the Sbylockt of Sodom are so badly
scared that they will sustain a loss of
tho eipreuage both ways from hcllats
to Nebraska and the commissioner for
retelling to get rid of the pesky things?
Why did not their English friends Uke
them off their hand as anticipated?
Hscause Sovereign and Senator Allen
had questioned their validity by court
proceedings.
And now the schemers have hit upon
the happy thought of unloading these
questionable securities upon the schuol
funds la the "wl'd eyed state of the
west." No, (r.Sheoy, if your Euro
pean friend are afraid of them, the
Nebraska hay !! da't want thorn,
We would pnlor cotton bonds cf r.he

Roth the Democratic and Republican
parties have established head-quarters
and are today preparing millions of
campaign documents to be sent out dur
ing t'ils campaign.
It Is the opinion of the shrewdest
politicians at Washington, that if the
People's Party takes advantage of the
blunders and infamy of tho present
administration, there will be no trouble
in electing Populist members enough
to hold tbe balance of power in tbe
next Congress. It is also admitted by
the closest observers among both, the
Democratic And Republican politicians
that the next election of president will
be thrown into tho House, which will
give the Populists the power to dictate
who shall bo the next president of the
United States? Tho election in the
state of Oregon comes off In June, and
In Alabama in August. We are al
most absolutely sure to carry Alabama,
and we stand an even chance with either
of the old parties In Oregon. To help
to carry Oregon and Alabama Is to help
put life and enthusiasm in our party in
every state in the Union.
The People's Party is composed of
the great common people of the country
who are poor and honest. It has no
millionaires, bank or railroad corpora
tions upon which to call for campaign
funds.
The National Committee has estab
lished head-quartcr3 at Washington
where it can procure an unlimited
amount of campaign literature at a
small cost. One thousand dollars used
in our party will do as much work as a
hundred thousand dollars In either of
t!:e old parties.
After carefully considering the above
facts and the bright prospects for our
party in the coming campaign, we foci
it our imperative duty to appeal to our
people everywhere to come to the aid
of the national committee in doing this
great work. In the last election our
party polled more' than a million votes
for president.
Wo now earnestly appeal to 1,000 of
that number to give us 15 each, 10,000
to five us $1 each, 20,000 50 cents each,
20,000 25 cents each, and the lemalnder
of the one million to give us 10 cents
and 5 cents each. We also earnestly
appeal to all People's Party Clubs, Le
gions, and Leagues to raise what funds
they can for the committee, by taking
up collections, giving entertainments
etc. We make this request becaueo wo
believe it our duty to do so. If our
party ever attains success each mem
ber uf the party must contribute to that
success not only with his ballot, but
w'ih whatever means he can spare. To
respond promptly and liberally means
success that will bless the nation for all
time to come.
All contributions should be sent to

STANLEY A CANNIBAL.
Charcrd With Having Lunched oa Ha
itian riMh to ftatUfy Curlonity.
Chicago, April 9. In a lecture de
livered last night Theodore Weat
mark, a young Scandinavian, who
made two explorations of the Congo
state in Central Africa under tbe aus
piacs of King Leopold II. of Relgium,
accuses Henry M. Stanley of having
lunched on human flesh to Katihfy a
morbid curiosity. He aid that at
Stanley Pool in 1884, Stanley, curious
to know how human flobh would taste,
sent his servant, Duala, to provure a
chunck of tho native material, but it
proved tainted and Duala received a
sound drubbing. A second trip after
flesh from a native proved more suc
cessful. It was fried in butter and
served with sauce piquante and mixed
pickles, but despite these condiments
Stanley pronounced the flesh to be
tasteless.

Stealing Land from OMl 0mn,
Enterprising men have a way ol
growing land along tho marshy
ihores of Delaware bay. The plan
Is to out the dikes and let tho tide rise
and fall for a courre of years over a
considerable area, including ootue
upland. It is found after a while
that the dilcs may be removed con
siderably out toward the low tide
line, and that many acres of arable
land have been gained at small cost.
Marsh companies usually evlstfor
the purpose of co operation in such
work, and there are many quarrels
over the land of men that refuxu to
join the company i.i making a tem
porary sacrifice of upland for the
purpose of reclaiming subiafrgi'd

extremely fertile, but it usually

!trvlvr Shouting tioad.
Reports received at the war depart
ment of recent Miiall arms competi
tions among the troops in the far
West s hoar conclusively that the
noble red man, us represented In
Uncle Sam's military service, does
not compare very favorably with his
pale-face brother in the matter of
sharpshooting. There is a popular
idea, gained from Cooper's "Leather
Stocking Tales" and even more
modern literature about tho "dusky
denizens of tho foront," that all
warriors are superior marksmen.
Army statistics prove that this Is a
romantic delusion so far as the
Indian soldier is concerned.
In recent competitions the Indians
who have been enlisted In the army
of the Colorado have had a chance to
show what they could do side by
side with white men. The best that
can bo said of them In the report Is
that they have made progress since
being enlisted, but it ul:o says that
tho sights on the t itle are still In
comprehensible to them, and that
much patience bus been nocessary
on tho purt of the oRiccrs to bring
tuc to any understanding at all of
the f -inclples of murkmanship.
Troop L oi 'lho Second cavalry, that
boing un Imliui. company, showed an
individual avcrugo f-rure of merit of
42.22, while the avoir re figure of
merit of the company was 78. HH.
Iu collective firing the Indian
average was 31. o7 while tho men of
the other troops made an average of
('.. 7a Tho Indians in tho Eleventh
infantry mudo for their company (I)
the average individual figure of
merit of 25.05, while tho figure of
the other troops was 62.87. In tho
Sixteenth Infantry there is one com
pany of Indians. Their figure of
merit by individual classification
was an uverago of 27.14, while the
figure of tho white troops was the
high average of DUG. In collective
tiring tho Indian average was 29.39,
as compared with the white average
of 70.47.
At pistol firing the Indians do bet
ter. There is a separate report on
this sort of tiring for the same
troops, and Troop I. of the Second
cavalry, being composed exclusively
of Indians, made a record of which
the men should bo proud, If they
ov( 'flarn about it. A dismounted
procl-U'e they made un average of
73.83, as compared with the general
average for the command of CO. 70;
at mounted practice their average
was far ahead of that of the white
troops, and their averngo per cent
for all firing was C5.72, as compared
with 59. 48 for the whole command.
The Indians stood first in order of
merit fcr rovolver liting for the de
partment. There were some oilier interesting
statistics obtained by this practice.
Tho nutives of tho United States
stood eleventh la ordor of merit
umong national itioi, Norway, Switz
erland, Ireland. France, Denmark,
J-cotland, Cennuny. Canada and Bel
gium coming 5n ordor before the
I'nited States. Tho men of six feet
in height and over were also highest
in tho order of merit as sharpshoot
ers.and tho shortest men the Jowost.
The men of light blue eyos wore
the best marksmen, with those of
dark blue next. Lvon the light
blue-eyed men were tho best marks
men among tho negroes. The report
rails attention to tho fact that tho
pe montage made by the Indians at
revolver practice was greater than
the percentage made Dy the winnors
of tho gold medals in tho revolver

of the department for the years 1892

Mr. liullalne and bo saved. A corres-v
ondentof tho Globe-Democrat deter
mined to start the good work nod called
at the Oallatne Home, believing that
bo story wou.d be ol far greater value
'rttrtstif told In the lady's own
words.
"Mv story,' said she, "loaslmple one
of suffering snd relief, I have had a
eltease or tho bart irora which few
vcr recover, and from which I never
expected to escape It was in 1864 that
I was first made aware tnat 1 bad hoart
trouble. I had risen and lighted a fire,
feeling In normal health, when I sud
denly became unconscious. 1 knew no
more until I recovered my senses In bed.
They told me that I was blaek In the
race, ana tnnt wnon nrst picnea up no
motion of tbe heart was pcrceptlMt.
About six years ago I was attacked with
a variety of a mictions, such as short
brentb, extreme weakness, fainting
spells, aitd, most annoying of all, a
burning, irritating nettle rssn, that at
times rendered me almost frantic, ana,
as you cau readily understand, seriously
aggravated my heait troubles. I had
settled down to contemplate the end,
und such was my suffering that, wicked
as it was, I sometimes prayed for It,
when one day glancing over a religious
paper published in Montreal, I read the
testimony of a lady whose uaso was
much like rnin, ana wno na rjeen
henoflted by Dr. Williams Pink l'ills
f r Tale People. Having seen similar
accounts in other reputable papers, I
rkOivd to try them, it wa u Heaven
sent retolutin. Tbe first box bad a
most miraculous efftct. The nettle
u disappeared as If by ningic, and
uy tiouble jielded to the medicine like
h Know yields to tbe spring-time sun,
.nd I feel bitter today than I have for
weiity years. I can not say too much
ibout my imnrovtd condition. My
ilo d 1 full und rich, my appetite is
mod. mv nrvs are steady, I tleep
soundly and wuke up refreshed, I climb
the hills of our farm without fatigue
and perfoim nil the manifold duties
uf tbe Jarmer's wife, and surely my
heart must bo In a normal state when I
answer to all these conditions."
Newsoaoer ethics usually prevent the
publication in the news columns of any
thing that might bo construed as an
advertisement and thus much valuable
knowledge Is suppressed that might
prove of incalculable bsncfH to tbous
and. The prabo of Dr. Williams' I'iDk
l'ills fbould be sung throughout tbe
land. Thev should be as familiar in
every household aa the csme of the
nation, and tho newspapers snouia unite
in making them so.
