Oh queen of the sunset coast, Has thy harbor grown too shallow? Has the Golden Gate been closed? But what means this fearful message? California, is this right? Have thy fields refused their harvests? Has the sun refused its light? Favored home of the purple grape! Oh, land of the yellow gold ! Have thy countless herds ceased feeding' Thou granary of the world? Has man refused to labor? Has the miue refused the ore? Are thy warehouses all empty? Will thy gold buy bread no more? A question more I ask you, Ye " Sons of the Golden West;" Is the rich man's larder empty? Is his child with hunger pressed? Say, whence comes their right to plenty? Whence comes th6ir rich repast? While those whose labor feeds them, Now starve in the streets at last. Are the brains of your statesman addled? Has woman's heart grown cold? Humanity crushed out of man. By his mad'ning greed for gold ? The sun shines warn!; the earth expands, Yielding harvests rich and rare; Yet Labor, though creating all, To-day, has a paupers' fare. Idle they; but not from choice Idle, yet with willing hands ; They roam your streets with hunger gaunt, In ever increasing bands. Paupers now are the toiling men; Creators of wealth you hold. And what are ye, who feast and see Those starve who produced ycur gold? Ye perch too high, O statesmen blind ! Come down where the toilers moan; Stand Want and Plenty side, by side, Where Labor can have its own. Justice'. Mercy! Meaningless words. While cunning, and power, and greed Mock at manhod, virtue aDd truth, High Heaven, and the orphan's need. Sons of Evil! Daughters of Self! Ye blind to the good and true! Justice spoc Its, Manhood is waking, Judgment is waiting for you. M. C. Dwight. Call for the Peoples' Independent Prima ries and Convention for Lancas ter County, Nebraska.

R. J. Gilmore, Sec. On Lack of ' Conscience as a Means of Success. - From "Topics of the Time" in the Century for July. A little experience in life makes it plain, that one element of what is called "success "consists in a certain tougnness of the conscience. By "success" we mean, of course, worldly success under the present conditions. We do not mean the true and high success, the conduct of one's life in all honesty, with the rewards of a pare fame and the better rewards of conscious clarity of purpose, and fairness of action. We mean that men of business who are try ing to live up to an ideal are very apt to find less scrupulous men passing them at certain points, and sometimes permanently outdoing them in the mere race for wealth, from the fact that the latter are less hampered at critical mo ments by conscientious considerations. It is true that "honesty is the best policy" in the long run. and as a rule even in ordinary business affairs; and it is true that many men make a com plete failure in life by disregarding this maxim. It is true that honesty is one of the forces of worldly success; it is also true that dishonesty is one of the forces of worldly success. The honest reader will perhaps ask, why this praise of dishonesty. But we are not praising dishonesty; we do not think it commendable in any way; on the contrary, we think, just as the hon est reader thinks, that it is in every way condemnable and contemptible. We are, however, stating a palpable and provable fact namely, that in the pres ent constitution of society a lack of con science may be an important, even a deciding, element of worldly success. Th e point we are getting at is this nameiy, mat it is easier to reap a cer tain kind of worldly success without conscience than with it; and that, there fore, the conscienceless man who reaches enormous wealth or hisrh worldlv posi tion is not nearly so clever a fellow as his admirers think he is and proudly proclaim him to be W e believe this to be particularly true in political life. Under the thoroughly un-American system of spoils and pat ronage, and by means of the prevailing system of corruption at the polls, it has been of late years prominently demon strated that some of the highest public positions can be reached in America by men of well-nigh lowest character Now one reason that these men succeed is that "nothing succeeds like success; " and that even me themselves person ally honest have a certain admiration for the ability of the conscienceless man of success. Our present effort is to re move part of the credit of the success ful rogue. If he is less admired perhaps he will be less successful; and if he is better understood perhaps he will be somewhat less admired. Well, then, it is a fact that the successful rascally pol itician, while doubtless having a certain amount of natural "smartness," is, in reality and upon close examination, not nearly so "smart" as he superficially appears to be. Under the spoils system, which is only partly abrogated in the United btates, it does not take how ri- diculouslv true it is that it does not take great abilities to insure success in the ?orrmt maneuvers of the political field. The onlv wonder is when, under present conditions, a thoroughly scru pulous leader appears in local or gener al politics. To win success without re sorting to the usual unscrupulous meth ods that is the test of real force r there should be the focus of admiration. The principle is true in ordinary bus iness; it is true in politics; it is particu larly true in the journalistic world. It is a harder task, it requires more gen uine ability and greater "staying pow er," to reap worldly success in this field scrupulously than unscrupulously. The fact is that there is altogether too much reverence for rascals, and for rascally methods, on the part of toler ably decent people. , Rascality is pictur esque, doubtless, and in fiction it has even its moral uses; but in real life it should have no toleration; and it is, as a matter of fact, seldom accompanied by the ability that it brags. One proof that the smart rogue is not so smart as he thinks, and as others think, is that he so often comes to grief. He arrives at his successes through his knowledge of the evil in men; he comes to grief through his ignorance of the good in men. He thinks he knows "human nature," but he only hall knows it. Therefore he is constantly in danger of making a fatal mistake. For instance, his excuse to himself for lvine and trickery is that'lviner and trickery are indulged in by others even by some men who make a loud boast of virtue before the world. A little more or less of lying and trickery seems to make no dinerence, he as sumes, especially so Ions: as tnere is no public display of lies and tricks, for he understands that there must al ways be a certain outward propriety in order to insure even the inferior kind of success he is aiming at. Bnt, having no usable conscience to guide him, he underrates the sensitiveness of other nonsriennes and esneHfl.ll v the sensi- tiveness of that vague sentiment called contending for supremacy, by the use of "public opinion," and he makes a that most potential power, the individ misoal mil a tion whih if it does not ual ballot. One of these armies repre- 8 land him in the penitentiary, at least 6 makes him of no use to his respectable 9 allies; therefore, of no use to his semi- criminal associates; therefore, a sur prised, miserable, and vindictive failure Another Letter from Clay County. Editob Farmers' Alliance: Per-, haps a few lines from this neck o' woods micrht be read with interest. We have an Alliance here (Garfield No. 800) of over seventy-five members. We. with other Alliances, own and run an eleva- tor at Edgar, and have done a heavy business in the grain line. Report says we have been the means of keepings corn irom one to tnree cents higher than at other neighboring towms Our Alliance is organized for business, and we firmly believe a change in our laws and lawmakers is absolutely es sential to the liberty and prosperity of the laboring people; and at least ninety five per cent, of our Alliance will Tote to that end this fall, while less than five per cent, will still support the same old railroad cappers they have for years.

But then he has been with the dodge party so long ne can t help it. Ten years ago I was president of an Alliance here. At that time I had several talks with a leading lawyer of the place in regard to the wants of the farmers. He said the farmer should not go into politics. Says he, "We did not know until now that you were so oppressed. We now see just what you want, and the 'Repub lican party now stands ready and anx ious to give you gust such laws as you want. We will do anything for the dear people." Well, what have they done ior us? jsotning out lie.

It may seem strange, but it is never- theless true, that alcohol regularly ap plied to .the thrifty farmer's stomach will remove tne ooaras irom tne ience, let the cattle into his crops, kill his fruit trees, mortgage his farm and sow his helds with wim oats ana inisues. It will take the paint off his buildings, break the glass out of tbem and nil them with rags. It will take the gloss from his clothes and the polish from his manners, subdue his reason, arouse his passions, bring sorrow and disgrace upon his family, and topple him into a drunkard's grave. It will do this to the artisan and capitalist, the matron and the maiden, as well as the farmer; for. in its deadly enmity to the human race, alcohol is no respecter of persons St. Louis Christian Advocate. "The Conflict of the Age." By C. H. St. JotJh in New Republic The contest is now raging in the great state of Nebraska as to whether the liquor traffic shall be outlawed as a business by the passage of the amend ment to the constitution, or protected by organically placing license in the constitution. The forces aie gathering, public sentiment is being educated, and the public conscience is being aroused. Only a few months remain, when at the ballot hot will be settled in a large sense, the' destiny of this great state, as to wnetner tne saioon power snan uic tate the policy of the people, or wheth er the home shall be protected, and the youth of the great commonwealth hare a chance for life. I see before me now two great armies sents the highest and holiest principles of our government, viz: "Life, liberty anu tne pursuit oi nappmess The other army represents a traffic whose end is death, relentless cruelty, unutterable woe, bitter anguish of broken hearts, desolate homes, eisthty thousand lives destroyed annually, six- ty per cent of our paupers, seventy per cent of our maniaes and insane, ninety per cent of all criminals, eighty-seven per cent of murders and the enormous waste of productive power, the result of one million makers and venders who are now engaged in the liquor traffic, a total aggregate which reaches beyond $i,oou,uuu annually, une army repre- sents me iruix oi tne spirit, love, loy, peace, long sunering, gentleness, good ness, faith, meekness, temperance. The other army represents the works of flesh, which are these: adultery, forni cation, uncieanness, idolatry, hatred, wrath, strife, seditions, envyings, mur ders, drunkenness, revellings. Which army are you in, my brother? beems to me if ever in the history of a state or life of a nation, the Spartan spirit is de manded, it is in this contest which will settle the question what class and char acter of citizens shall build their homes and rear their families in the beautiful valleys and undulating plains of Ne braska. The success of arms for the army of strong-hearted men and women who compose the army of God, home and numanity, means more than- breaking tne tetters tnat the rum power would bind the citizens of Nebraska' with. It means a strong helping hand to noble Kansas, the soil of martyrs, and sover eigns of liberty, and incarceration of original pacKages. it means strength to the Dakotas, and inspirations to Kan sas, and back-bone to Minnesota; and a1 general uplift to every state and terri tory in our fair union.

' What it Cost Him. ; The people ot the third district will be interested in knowing that Mr. Dor- sey paid in campaign expenses the fulP, amount of his salary, viz: Ten thou sand dollars. He is probably ready to do the same thing again, which is not very encouraging to our friends in that district. It is quit noticeable that though $10,000 was used, ".there is no charge of corruption." Of course not. Ed. Alliance. The Tribune is in receipt of the fol lowing, communication which explains itself: Washington, D. C, June 26 To the Editor of the Tribune, I notice this 'surprising' statement in an editorial in your paper: "Representative Dorsey is authority for the surprising: statement that his last renomina tion at the Norfolk convention cost him $10, 000." I never made snch a 6tatement.ffThe pro prietor of the Pacific hotel can give you a statement of my expenses. Do not confound the expenses of the Norfolk convention with the campaign expenses in a district of over fifty counties, when a legislature is to be elected that is to select a United States sena tor, and all the forces of the opposition are centered on the legislative ticket. Tours truly, Georgb W. E. Dorsey. Mr. Dorsey misconstrues our Frr statement and complains of a mean;r which no possible ambiguity of thp tence could lustify. It was not - .r.t tuuiujuu. . u,m. . . u to imply that Mr. Dorsey clai-u.-a to have spent $10,000 at Norfolk. That couldn't possibly have been, and the Pacific hotel at that place need not be called into this question. Ten thousand dollars at $2 per day would pay for five thousand days' board, equal to thirteen and two-thirds years. As the conven tion lasted only one day no one suspects that Mr. Dorsey paid his board nearly fourteen years in advance, just for the fun of the thing. To avoid any further possibility of a misconstruction of our language, let us try again to state what Mr. Dorsey has said about his nomination : The nomi nation which he got at Norfolk cost him $10,000. This is clear. Further on in his letter Mr. Dorsey admits the campaign cost him $10,000. So there is no discrepancy between his statement and that of the Tribune. It is a mere matter of dollars and cents. There is no charge of corruption. Mr. Dorsey poured out his money liberally and on his own statement of the fact the Tribune gave him credit for it. Through this liberal expenditure Mr. Dorsey eot back to coneress all right, but lightning didn't strike his rod in the senatorial contest, it will be remembered that Manderson got away with tbat persimmon pretty unanimous ly, as the result of Chairman Richard's shrewd; amd effectual work.
