The official board of the First M E

Tho World Herald says We gnther
from a number of esteemed g o p
organs that it is a crime for anybody
save a republican to get rich If it is
n crime the fusionists hnve made it so
For the past eight years their chief en
deavor has been to create the impression
thnt tho men of wealth are to be de
spised and hated by tho common
people They have sought to convey
tho impre6Fion that all tho wealth of the
land was allied under the republican
banner to crush the life out of the poor
people They have insisted that the
poor mnn haB no chance and that every
opportunity for wealth or advancement
is in the control of tho money owners
With these as the cardinal principles of
the fnsionists it is amnsing but no
crime to notice them becoming wealthy
and proving that their professions were
bosh nt the same time That there are
poor people in the republican party and
wealthy ones in the fusion rnnkB bnt
proves that there aro men able to form
opinions of their own who have not be
lieved in the specious arguments of fu
sion leaders and party organs
The Appeal to Reason has it figured
out that none but the rich have nn op
portunity to bet nnd escape the penalty
of the law This is a most unreasonable
appeal to reason That paper shonld be
able to reason it out that everybody bets
nnd few are punished If a farmer puts
in a crop of wheat he bets his seed time
aud the use of his land against chinoh
bugs grasshoppers dronth hail rust
and otherwise takes a hundred chances
that he can grow a crop If he buys a
horse he bets the purchase price that he
can mnke the animal repay his expendi
ture and more too If a man digs a
ditch he bets that the work he does is
worth his pay which he sometimes
loses and the mnn who employs him
bets that he can make a profit on the
job The woman who buys a hat bets
that she will make a better appearance
than her neighbor and if she doesnt
she will consider the bet lost Those
who get married bet that they can live
happier married than single The man
who invests in property bets that it is
worth the money or more And so on
through life it is all bet and the success
ful better grows wealthy while the loser
should not grumble he takes his
chancce with the rest

from Liverpool June 18 for Montreal
having COO passengers on board was
wrecked last night off Cape Ballard
The LuBltanla was bound around
Cape Race for Montreal with a largo
cargo and a Bhlpload of passengers
It mistook its course in a dense fog nnd
went ashore near Renews 20 mlleB
north of Capo Race bcfoie daybreak
Tho ship ran over a reel and hangB
against a cliff The passengers who
nro mostly emigrants were ponlc
stricken They stampeded and fought
for the boats but were overcome by
the ofllcerB nnd crew The rougher
element among the passengers used
knives The women and children wero
first landed and the men followed Tho
crew stood by tne snip a neavy sea
was running and it was thought likely
that It would prove a total wreck
The Bteamer Glencoe arrived here
bringing six first 15 second and 43G
steerage passengers and 93 of the
crew of the Lusitania Captain Mc
Nay and the chief officers of the ship
remain with the wreck The passen
gers are almost entirely Russian and
Polish Jews The steamer struck at
130 a m during a dense fog Cap
tian McNay had to force the vessel
upon the reef for if he reversed the en
gines the whole ships bottom would
have been torn out and she would have
sunk immediately The panic was in
tense The drawing of knives by tho
passengers was not general but oc
curred in isolated Instances only
Three hours elapsed between tho
time when the Lusitania struck nnd
the time the passengers started to dis
embark This delay was occasioned
by the difficulty In controlling the pas
sengers and handling the boats All
the passengers and crew agree that If
the Lusitania had struck the rocks
in rougher weather not a soul on
board would have been saved
