Biuxard, b., May 21, "92.
Hos. A. Tivlor:
Dear Sir: I bv only jut now beo
made aware of the fact that a till mUi:ur
wij contract payable In any kind of legal
tender numey any Mipulatioa la
the contract to the contrary n.twItU
standlns, has been introJucel by H-u.
O. M. Kemand referred to the committee
on ruinate weights and measures, of
which I am iof.rIned you are a member.
Ttie object of this letter is to impress on
your mind the importance of the ineai
nre, and to Mk yoii hi behaif of the
toiling mi'.li'ins of America wh tome
are fast falling Into the hind of th.?
'London money power" to us your best
endeavors to have said bill reported;
fswmbly to the house at us eurly a day
aa poitoiole, I am only a plain farmer
bJt for twenty five yetr I have been
watching the encroachments of capital on
the Interests of labor, and think that a
point has been reached which readers th
situation, critical, and unless congress
doe sotri thing, and that non in the lin
of relief the result will be fearful
indeed.
Congress has year after year done the
bidding of the mon-y power, his turned
a deaf ear to tuw wishes of the siiastsss i.
laboring men and women, ami (liven the
money power all it bai asked for,
that it might ride at ease aBd gather lu
the wealth which we produced.
When the money power asked for the
banking cys'em bai-ed on bonds, it was
granted. When it asked for the i1mm
tlzation of silver it was given, and excep
Won asked to be placed on the fctuu we
use as currency has readily been grunted
Simply to allow Gold to cuntrol our com
merce and trade of every kind, so that
the object aimed tt the euslavemeut of
American labor Vy acquiring eur Boll
might be accomplished. Any mau who
cannot see that this thing U almost ac
complished is blind indeed.
The "Loudon money power" began
loaning money in Iowa in ISII, (I was
then a resident o: thit ftite.) bii.ee that
time they have beeu operating m various
parts of the Union, all the while watching
over the congress of the U. S. ond seeing
to it that the ads of coniivas were favor
able to their schemea. They have also
-was hed carefully over the acts of state
legislatures relittlira to interest on loans
and annullment of gold contracts.
The object aimed at as i said above is
the ownership of American soil so that It
jaay be farmed like Ireland, titid If tl.ey
can prevent the emigres of this U. b.
from passing a law annulling gold can
tracts they will very anon whie out Indi
vidual ownership o( farm land. 1 am
aatiniled that a very large p irt of tho mo.
ney Invested In this country in mortgages
Is foreliin capital. They have control ot
our Industries to a greHt extent and will,
If allowed to do so, soon wipe out the
last vestige of American freedom.
Will you as a representative of the
'people-rtand-with folded Immlg and see
tbe-peopUi thus consumed? I hope
' not; '
Look if you please at the recent Issue of
' Diner currency,' see on Its face the stipu
lation that It is a legal tender for all
debts and dues where not olherwim stipu
lated in the contract, then tell me what it
means.
I tell you now candidly you must net
'and act at ouce if you have a heart which
beats for the laterest of laboring men.
Give us some measure of relief. There
are but two sides to the citiiRtion, one
that of gold, the other that of labor. La
bor seeks reilcr from oprejslou aud will
have It.
The American people are long suffer
lng, but when eorueied, as they soon
will be without some measures of re
lief U passed by congress they may prove
beasts to be feared.
Head this letter curefully, read it to
your fellow congressmen. Arouse to the
. luterests of America "the land of the free
and home of the brave" and cease to do
the bidding of a foreign power which
seeks to enslave us, and nil may yet be
well.
Respectfully Yours,
A. C. Fkndehson.
Land Monopoly.
The growth of tho Independent move
ment lu Omah'i is well illus'ra'ed in the
largely Increasing atten liuice at the open
meetings of the Omaha Citizen's Alli
ance which holds open meetings every
Friday evening for tho discuss on of
live issues.
Land monopoly was the subject of dis
cussion at the meeting May 20; h, mil
many startling facts and figures were
given by the uiitcreiit speakers, a lew of
which we ive below:
Mr. I). Clem Deaver said: The stabil
ity of a couutry depends upon the owner
ship of tho lsnd by those who occupy it.
It has been truthfully said that a nation
can not long remaiu free whose people
do not own their homes. Taking tills to
be a true proposition it behoves us to
think twice before we again endorse with
our votes the political parties whoso .in
just laws are rapidly driving to the wall
the farmers, the original owners of tho
land, and concentrating It luto the hands
of a few millionaire corporations and
.American and foreign m tuey lords. Let
. us sea if we have have reason to tremble
for the ctuse of freedom In this country.
In a speech made hy Ignatius Donnelly
the other evening, he claimed that at the
rate the farmers were being turned Into
tenants it would be lut a few years until
there would not be a farno-r in the conn
try who owned the land he tilled, and I
wish to present to you tonight a few
figures showing the number of tenant'
farmers in some of the principal
agricultural states of this country, lu the
state of Nebraska we have In round num.
bers 12,000 tenant farmers, in Kansas r;!5.
000, Texas 67,000, Georgia 03,000, North
Carolina 53,000, Kentucky 44,000,TeBnes
eee 58,000, N. Y. 40,000. Pennsylvania
45,000, and Illinois 80.0J0. In 21 states in
this country there are more tenant farm
era thau In England, Ireland. Scotland
and Wales put together, and In the city
of New York alone there were during the
past year, more evictions for the non-payment
of rent than there were iu the land
Jord cursed "emerald Isle" across the
-tit.
i'M The vast estates held by foreign nnbll
Uy alone, aside from those empires of
land held by railroads and -other corpora-
" tions, are startling in the extreme. A
few of the larger holders are as follows:
English syndicate in Texas three million
acres, Holland land company three mil
lions, Sir E. Heed two millions, Barou
Tweedale of England two millions.
These are bin a few of the large
foreign land monopolizers who hold
countlefs acres of the most productive
'and in the United States, and draw year
ly In the shape of .ground rents millions
of dollars, or In other words the labor of
millions of our people, to be spent in liv
ing in luxury and debauchery in
. Europe.
How do these mn get possession of ail
this land? Certainly they could n.it have
earned it, and they did not secure a title
from Ood Almighty, No indeed, but
they did secure it by special legislation
In their Interest by the congresses elected
to protect the inte-ests of the producers
of this country.
Let os stay a moment and see now
some of this land wm obtained. About
ten years ago a few men la Chicago
formed a syndicate (Senator Farwell was
on of thrml anl went down to TrM
s-il uiiiile a bargain with the legislature.
1 y raid a Urcala with the legislature,
because the people would never tin
asrried to it It was a Mlo: that in
Consideration that they boil i the fctat of
Texas a state house worth one and one
half million d liar.-', they bbculd hstve as
payment thre million acrei of Texas
prairie land; that wan r,0 cell's per acre.
This was done In October, and lb- next
March they unloaded a large pi.rt of it
to an Lugii :b tycditu'e Kr several mil
lion d( liars.
Have yon ever asked yourselves what
this method ultimately meats? It means
rhit m-e yew J American thrift, Ameri
can push, "and American enterprise will
have built up railroad, churches, col
leges, school houses, manufacturing
establishments and dwelling houses
around this land until It will be worth
thirty dollars an acre. What will the
Enirlish syndicate have done in the mean-
tine to euhnn.ee the value of that land?
Will they have laid out a day s laborl
No, not one. Will they have spent ;i
dollar? No. What will thty have doner
They will have drawn thousands, yes
millions of dollars from America in the
form of ground rents and spent it in liv
ing in lnxury and debauchery In Europe.
It also menus that you aud I will raise up
children handicapped so that they will
hive to work In the cotton and wool-n
mills, or in the mines, or somewhere else
at a beggnly pittance of a dollar a d .y '
Li m.Vy nu, ,.f that nittmee to I
pthVEngliMndicate per acre I
for that land thnt lias been made worth It
by our own thrift and industry, and not
through anything the Kog!L-h syndicate
may have done.
You are doubtltss all familiar with the
Union and Central I'aeitle H. H. grant",
where congress gave away by ono act of
legislation over forty two million acres
of land that was selling to soldiers at
$1.2 5 per acre, making upwards of .W
millions of wealth, and all wo have to
show for it is a second mortgage on the
road, which wa3 practically built by the
U. !S. government."
Mr. Deaver cited several other cases
where large tracts of land hnd been given
to corporations for practically nothing,
and warned his hearers against continu
ing In power the old parties who
sanctioned this -wicked legislation by
their votes and their silence, and tire at
the present time engaged in a scheme to
turn over what remains of our public
land to ditch companies ostensibly to aid
lu the irrigation of the lands, but really as
an outright gift of this laud to private
parties, who will not expend a day's
labor or a dollar m return lor the same.
Omaha,
Au Appeal to Democrats.
How lotiL', Oil democrats, will you con
tinue to follow blindly titter falsa gods
aud treacherous leaders? Ho v lung will
you be led like lambs to the slaughter,
and like sheep dumb before your shearers,
open not your mouths? How long will
you follow a leadership that Is helping
to fasten upon on a tinancial system that
has already robbed millions of honest
men anil women of their earnings and
their homej?
How long will you follow the men
who have aided the republicans in fasten
ing upon us a policy that has strewn 1 he
road of commerce with disasters, wrecks,
bankruptcy, and ruin, and turned
millions out of employment.
How long will you vote for the party
that helped the men who held your
notes, mortgages and bonds, to destroy
half the money in the country by demon
etizing silver, and now tell you in your
teeth that you can uever again have free
coinage of silver.
Oh! democracy, how have the mighty
fallen, how have the great became 8m:tll,
how have the strong became weak, how
have the noble, great men of the party
been brought low by the seducing inllti
euco of money, and sold our heritage to
Shyluek!
I once worshiped at the shrine of
democracy with nil the loyalty and devo
tion that any man ever b.oved the knee to
his political god. But when I discovered
my leaders the same nion who are now
leading you In secret conclave with the
leaders of the republican party and the
Jewish money lender, plotting such con
spiracles against the people as deinomv
ti.ing sliver and others jut as damutdile,
1 tell you I dropped the democratic
party quicker than 1 wo;Ul a poisonous
serpent.
'I his plot vis develop -d In lSId at the
St. Louis convention when Tilden was
nominated for president. The delegates
from tl" western states headed "by Tom
Eing. Oorge H. IVudh'ton, D m Vor-
hees, Thomas Hendricks ,ud others, de
manded t!mt t!te t'oiuls Which had been
bought with papa- should be paid in the
same kind of money. A Wall Street
banker who repiesev.ted the bond holders
jumped upon the iloor and with a stamp
of his foot said "it's high timocthis dam
nable greenback principle was stamped
out of the western wing of the democra
tic party."
At that time the money powvr got lis
bands on the thvont of the democr.itic
party and it lias owned Mid controlled it
ever since.
Then I left the party, aud that was tha
time when every western denim rat
should have resented that iti-ult by doing
as I did.
Democrats, corae let us reason together.
The independent party is asuing noth
ing more than you siy is just.
It is asking: not only taritY reform, but
it is asking finance reform. It is asking
that silver be restored to Its former free
coinage, and many other reforms that
will help us to clear away the mortgages
from our farms.
I hero Is nothing In a nam-. A rose by
another name would smell just as swee".
Your cries for relief through the demo
cratic, party are like the feeble wail of an
infant, crying to the hurricane and the
cyclone as they dash on in their mad
career of ruin and destruction. Listen
no longer to the siren tones ami senti
mental entreaties of such old political
pirates and hypocritical traitors as Miller
and Mortun.
Take your feet from the mire and clay
of so called denocracy, cross the river of
unclean politics aud burn the bride be
hind you so that you can never go b ick
as you did Id years ago.
It is n3 disgrace to leave yocr party,
Thoiras .Jeffer ,u p. ft his party, Abraham
Lincoln left ah party.
In the course of human events It often
becomes the duty of men to cut loose
from their political associates in order to
maintain and uphold the true principles
of freedom and equality to all men alike
as demanded by that once grand old
democratic party when 1 worshiped at Its
shrine.
Come up under the burner of the peo
ple's pary which is marching upon the
high road of progress and reform, de
manding that all men of every sect, creed,
color and condition shall stand equaly
before the law. -'Go with us to
victory."

Carelessness About Chickens.
Carelessness is the disease that car
ries off most of tno young chickens.
One way in which it does this is by
not properly protecting them from
cold draughts and dampness. If
there are openings about tho bottom
of the coops tho little chickens, being
close to the tloor sutler from it. All
the ventilation should be jrom above,
so that they will not be in line of the
draught. Do not let them run out,
either, when the weather or ground is
cold or damp. Clear, dry, cold
weather will not -hurt them, but tie
dampness will. I5e careful, too. in giv
ing the water. Keep it constantly be
fore them fresh and clean, so that
they may get to it as wanted, but
have the trough arranged so that they
can not plunge in and get wet ail
over. If you will observe this matter
and then keep them free from lice, you
will probably crow most of your
chicks to maturity and lind soma

" About Mirrors.
The necessity for something which
would enable man to Bee his own face
must have been early apparent, and
in all probability the first mirror was
tho placid surface of a body of water.
The next most accessible object was
a piece of polished metal, and it was
of this) material that the first arti
ficial mirrors were made. The Israel
ites1, under Moses, had mirrors ot
bra.su, and douotiess oth?r inotals
were used long before that period.
Mack glass was used for mirrors,
as well as transparent glns-j with
some black substance on the
back. It is related that the Spaniards
found mirrors of polished black stone,
both convex and concave, among the
natives of South America.
T-he mirror.-: of the ancient Greeks
and Uonwins) were thin discs of
bronze, highly polished, and usually
fashioned wit h handles, t hough Home
times they were set upright 011
btandH.
Later on, Bilver was useL and the
first mirror of solid silver is said to
have Iiee4t made by Praxiteles, in the
time of Julius CVs.ir. Subsequently
silver minors took the place of braes
or bronze ones almost altogether,
though steel, copper, mid even cold,
were also employed. "Looking-glasses"
of nietrtl were employed
everywhere up to the fifteenth cc-nt-uiy.
.
From t lie twelfth to the.fiff cent h cen
tury sinnll mirrors, carried in the
pocket or attached to tho girdle,
were regarded as indispensable ad
juncts to ladies' toilets. The pockc-t-inirror
was a circular plaqueot polish
ed ltii'C'il lixed iti a shallow box and
covered with a lid.
Ivory nils usually tiie material of
such cases, and an a rule they tvere
carved in relief wit li representations of
love, domestic scenes, hunting sports,
and the like, Gold, silver, uiaini Is,
and ebony were likewise used (is ma
lt rials. The sort of mirror worn at
the gitiile hnd no cover, but was pro
vided with a short handle.
In the Middle Ages, when steel and
silver mirrors were almost exclusively
used, a met hod of backing glass for the
same purpose with thin sheets of met
al was known.
Small convex mirror: of glass were
nitiile in Germany before the sixteenth
century, and were 111 demand until
eoinptirntivt'Iy modern times. They
were produced bv blowing small glass
ulobes, into which, while they were
hot, was passed through a pipe a mix
ture of tin, antimony, and resin.
When the globe was coated inside it
was allowed to cool, and was aller
wards cut into convex ii iises, which
formed small but well-delined images.
Hand mirrors ot metal are still in
common use in Oriental countries.
In China ami Japan they are usually
made of bronze, slightly convex, and
about twelve inches in diameter. The
Japanese woninn who is so' fortuuato
as to own a mirror regards it as tho
most precious of her possessions.

hw former habits, doing hi work ;osr
ait well and as faithfully as "when btt
could see. lie never made a mistake
in the number of cows, and never h-;t
a cow behind save once, audthat hap
pened in this wise:
One afternoon wie-n the cows
came home. "Old Pritidle" was mis,
m. lash drove t'oe cattle into x'n
barnyard, and then was seen going to
ward the pasture on a run. A half
hour later ho returned without the
missing cow.
"Where is Erindle, Dash?" hi a
master inquired.
The dog looked despondent; he '.mug
his head and dropped his tail as if
with shanie.
"Go lind Brindle," commanded the
masur.
Dash turned and ran for a few steps
in the direction of the pasture, and
then trotted slowly back ami s :;t
down before his master, as if to say,
"It's no use. I've tried, but 1 iriu't
get that cow."
At his master's repeated i-ommai'i,
ho again ran o!f for a few steps, lor.
returned as before, this time whining
uneasily.
"Something wrong, is there, old dog'
Well, I'll go along and see," said the
man. ami lie started in the direction
of the pasture.
A wonderful change came over Dash
at this inovo of bis master. Wide
atvakeand tail wagging, he led the
way, wjth occasional sharp, express
ive barks.
Without a moment's hesitation liu
lei his master straight to tin; spot
where Old Lrindle stood, and th ::.
began bjirking vociferously, ns 1111:1 li
as to suy, "There, you see how it is I
couldn't stnrt her.'L
The cow had caught her head in the
crotch of an apple tree. Shu had been
reaching for apples, and having put
htr head into tiie crotch from a hove,
was unable to withdraw it, and thtrc
she hung, a picture of stupid misery,
ill iijiliiincnt danger of choking to
death. - - - -
She was released, after considerable
dilliculty, anil Dash drove her home,
llu had saved Iter lite, his master
thinks, for she could hardly have
lived through the night in such a posi
tion. Two Curious old Tale3.
Xoman-nl-.Vouar, an Arabian King
who reigned long, long ago at Hirab.
commanded the architect Sennoniar
to build him a wondrous paiaee. This
t!io art hitect. did, anil when it was
done a single stone fastened the whole
s! ructure, and the colors of the wails
changed frequently during tho day.
The King was greatly )1"osim1, and
snowereil all Kinds 01 ncli guts upon
the buihhr with the lavishliess of Ori
ental kings. Hut iiiw'.;i:'i lis were
treacherous in those old days, an i it
occurred t o the King that- Sennem.ir
might build a palace equal in beauty,
or even superior, lor some rival ruler.
The more he thought over il; the
more jealous he l e.'.ne.e, until nned.ty
he ordered tiie architect to bj thrown
from tiie top of the palace, to ninl.v
ceil ain that no duplicate palace wou'.i!
be made. After tins the King was sat
isfied t hat his pn-laee was the only
one, and the Arabians ivj.ird-ii it as
one of the wonders (!' the world.
This ol'd story is told i the his
torian I )' Ileriie'si , bit; another ami
similar 0110 is related by an Irish
writer. If thev are both true, it
proves that kings are equally t roach- j
erous nil tin? world over: I
Ever so long ago -an African colony I
resided in the north Ot Ireland, and

I a shark iu Mannkau harbor. Tha

struck by a squall and swamped, arid
the occupant- left in the water. Atier
tryinj- to ri;;lit the boat, without

desperately stabbed tho shark in the

mand that ail national, and state revenue
shall bo limited to the necessary expenses of

' Wodemand that postal Btivings banfca
be established by the government for the
safe deposit of the earnings of the peop.eand
to facilitate exe'iiango.
"7. The land, including ait the natural re
sources of weaith, is the heritage of all the

speculative purposes, and alien ownership ol
land should be prohibited. Ail lands now held
i-.y rfiiironas-nnd oihereorporiuinns jnexreKs
of their actual needs, aud all lands now owned
by aliens, should be reclaimed by the govern

"s. 'transportation being a means of ex-
cornice and a public necessity, the govern-
ment should own nnd operate the railroads
