Theyre moving slowly eastward are the west
urn farmers now
On one side bitched the ancient nude beside
the aped cow -They
move in steady endless tide settlers or
all nations
Disgusted with their western land theyll visit
wifes relation
Now why will not they wait awhile auotlur
year at least
Its bound to rain upon us soon and dampen
man and beast
Tis best to keep stiff upper lip dont sell
off all your leather
Why men ill ve old natures bound to make
but average weather
If drouth comes on us nand then ita bound
iu utbu a lui u
Next vear twill likely urbwn us out it cannot
always burn
Dont get disgusted quite so quick if youve a
felt of rations - y
Just hold your own stay where you are
fight shy of wifes relations
Youll latter see friends one and all that
this same poem is right
For sir months wont pass oer youriead be
fore youll have a fight
Then when it rains up here next year ye men
of all nations
Youll hurry back to live right here and cuss
your wifes relations

Election ispast and still we live
Bewahe of the man who told you
so
President Cleveland has issued his
proclamation designating Thursday
jSov 28 as Thanksgiving da
Hon W H Westover is elected to
the District bench over Bartow by a
- very small majority not to exceed 15
votes
County Treasurer county Super
intendent and one District Judge aie
the plumbs that fell into the populist
fold this vear
In 1S50 there was one person in
prison in the United States to each
3865 inhabitants In 1891 there was
one to each 734 The destressing
conditions of the masses breeds crime
Most of the Populist candidates
were defeated at the last election but
our principles still live Commence a
campaign of education at once and
prepare for the great battle in 18S6
While the PopuliBt party sustained
a partial defeat in Cherry county at
the election last Tuesday the party
j still exists and will do battle to He
publican corruption more earnestly
nexc fall than ever Our party is
based upon a grand set of principles
which can never die and must win in
- tho future Political corruption can-
not carry always
While the farmer can by any possi
bility live the mass of ihe people are
coutented perfectly willing to exist
and refuse to do a thing towards
changing systems that vouchsafe to
our fundamental industry no more
than the poor privilege of existance
suppose oh ye patient patheticma3s
that the farmer couid more than
merely exist that he could make
J just irragine how business would
snap and cracfc with activity energy
snd expansion 1 How factories would
start how labor would be employed
and paid how the wheelsof commerce
would hum how the whole land would
wrinkle with the joyous laughter of
pros srity ana happiness To be con-
tent to airoply exist in a t country like
th is the best possible proof that the
Ahaighty made a great mistake when
i he peopled it Farm Stock and
ne
As the smoke clears away and the
true raturns become known it is found
that the populist party has made some
grand gians About 5000 more popu
lists votes ware cast for Supreme
Judge than was cast in 1893 Great
giiiB were made in others states
having more than doubled our vote in
Iowa and Ohio We have gained some
in the number of populist District
7udgf s elected in this state As far as
reported up to date the populists hold
255 county offices in the state which is
a good gain While republican lies
and campaign whiskey worked havock
in our ranks to a certain extent in
this county still the party never was in
better shape Bvery true reformer
phould commence now to organize for
itne fight of 1896
THlE SMALL ErVSPLOYER
He Hue Etfen Ousted from Ife by the
Powerful Corporution
We may lament the disappearance of
the small employer the man who work
ed with his hands as well as with his
brains and was little more than the
most skillful of his dozen workmen we
may even become pathetic over the loss
of the spinning wheel and the loom of
our grandmothers but we may find
consolation in the thought that the cost
of production has been steadily grow
ing less that comforts and even luxu
ries of life which 100 years ago were un
known to the majority of people are
now withinthe reach of nearly all and
that the profits which formerly went to
the small purchaser are now even more
widely attributed in the form of divi
dends U tockholders little rivulets of
wealth w ich trickle through all classes
of society and offer the rewards of thrift
to the humblest households in the land
writes Justice Henry B Brown In the
Forum If the head of the great cor
poration takes to himself an apparently
disproportionate share of the profits
it is only in obedience to a universal
law that the man who develops extraor
dinary capacity in any direction re
ceives an -extraordinary reward A
lawyer who earns r000 a year may In
nine cases out of ten do his work as
well as the one who earns 50000 but
in the tenth case the latter may be
worth to his clients every dollar he
costs them A picture by MeLssonier
worth 20000 may to an unskilled ob
server be scarcely distinguishable from
one worth 200 but there is an Impalpa
ble something which to an artistic
eye stamps on as the work of a great
artist and the other as that of an ordi
nary painter While the manager of the
corporation may be inferior to a thou
sand of his employes as a mere handler
of tools his talent for orirnntenHrm
French Tax on SDlrit
a tax on spirituous liquors distilled
within her bounds but since 1875 the
French Go ernment exempted from
taxation all liquors distilled for home
consumption As was to be expected
the number of farmers who operated
under this clause increased constantly
until it now has reached nearly a mil-
Hon and instead of limitintr thp
uct in accordance with the law they
distilled all the year around flooding
the country with cheap and villainous
stuff causing untold misery and involv
ingfa loss to the exchequer of certainly
not less than 200000000 francs annually
The Chamber of Deputies to appease
the loud cry for reform has now passed
alaw taxing all spirituous liquor without
exception but in order not to lose the
good will and votes of the 1000000
petty distillers IMmposes such an un
reasonably heavy tax that the conserv
ative Senate without whose concur
rence no measure becomes operative
will refuse to also pass the law Thus
the old state of things Is likely to con
tinue and the wilyt Deputies will lay all
the blame on the Senators
