Is there an ■ overproduction of meat? If so, why bo J much want and starvation? Why island so is cheap? Why is labor so cheap? Why stock so cheap? Don’t you suppose irarcity of money has more to do with it than anything else? ** Stick to your plow and let politics alone has been the cry of the court house politicians and ring lawyers for twenty- five years. Stick to your plow and t) i- will run the political machine. This hus been the advice of the leaders for twen¬ ty-five years, and the people followed tho advice U ntil two years ago. Now these same “great Unconstitutional lawyers” are very much disturbed over the situa¬ tion, aud now they are very anxious for the farmer to desert his plow and flock to town to hear those “politicians for reve- nue only” tell him what to do.- Ex. **« The great divine, T. DeWitt Talmage, said in a recent sermon: “The greatest war the world nas ever seen is now going muf- on between capital and labor. The dle classes, who have hitherto held the balance of power and acted as mediator between the two extremes, are diminish¬ ing, and, at the present ratio, we will soon have no middle classes, for all will be very rich or very poor, and we will be divided between princes and paupers, between palacas and hovels. Monopoly has the Republican party in one pocket and the Democratic party iu the other pocket.” *% The Western Advocate (Mankato, Kan.) says: Talking with a banker a few days ago he informed us that, in his opinion, we could not hope for good times heavily in this state until the farm- that are so mortgaged pass out of the hands of their present owners, and are taken by new comers who have enough to pay for them and a little money left to help them along. In other words this banker thinks that in older that a certain class may have good times, the men and women who have turned this state from a desert waste into a pro ductive garden will have to leave the homes they have spent years in making, and see the fruits of their labor and privation pass into other hands.

When any one asks you why th > people should own the railroads of the country, you wpuld do well to quote as an answer the indictment contained in the report of the late Pacific railroad commission. The railroads “have combined to tux the communities which they served, and forced the consuming classes in all sec- tions of the cotm’ry to contribute to the payment of iuterest aud dividends on the fictitious capital they created. They have increased the cost of livimr. Thev have laid proprietary claim to the traffic of large sections of tho country. They have constituted themselves the arbiters of trade. They have charged all that the traffic would bear and appropriated a share of the profits of every industry by charging the greater part of the dif- ference betwoen tho actual cost of pro- duction anti the price of the article in market. They have discriminated between individuals, between local- ities, and between articles. They havo favored pirticular indviduals aud companies. They have destroyed possi- bio competitors, localities aud the then iujury built up par- ticular to of other localities until matters have reached such a pass that no man dares engage in any business into which transportation large- ly enters without first soliciting and ob- taing the permission have of a railro id mana¬ ger. They sphere departed from their legitimate a9 common carriers and engaged in mining articles for transpor tation over their own lines. They have exerted a terrorism over merchants and communities, thus interfering with the lawful participated pursuits of the people. They have in election contests. By secret cuts and rapid and violcut fluctua¬ tions iu rates they have menaced business, paralized capital, development.” and retarded invest¬ ment and Don’t you now candidly think that the time has come for tho people to deter¬ mine whether they will own the railroads or the railroads own them?—Reformer in National Economist.

Keene failed for some $10,000,000 tho market was stead¬ ied bv this young man’s calmness. A few days later the firm of Grant & Ward went down with a crash that is yet re membered. Then followed the panic in which the Metropolitan bank went to the wall. George I. Seney and others failed. John C. Eno became a defaulter for mil¬ lions, and for days Russell Sage was be- seiged in his cifice by frightened holders of his “puts” and “calls.” Waif street will never forget those few days. and The rest can be quickly told.

The people use it because it Is durable and The sanitarians endorse it because it is of a sanitary nature, aud contains no poison¬ ous material. We advertise it as we want all to havean opportunity to be benefited by ita advan¬ tages. Wall paper firms fight it, as it displaces their poisonous products. Some dealers talk against it, as they can buy cheap posted, kalsomines, and where the people are not sell at Alabastiue prices, thus making more profit. Kalsomines must go, as they are only temporary and spoil t£ he walls. Alabastine has come to stay, as it posses¬ ses merit, and has the unqualified endorse¬ ment of those who have used it for years. Alabastine has stood tho test of time, anl now stands higher in public favor than ever before. Prot.

Find no traces of poisonous or injurious ma¬ terial .” Dr. De Wolfe,tho health officer o£ Chicago, says: “l’be perfect wall for domestic habita¬ tion is the material which resists decomposi¬ tion in every form. It seemes to mo that Alabastine is admirably adapted to the pur¬ pose.” The Good Health Publishing Co., of Battle Creek, Mich., writes: “We will, probably, use Alabastine as long as it is in existence.” We are located at Grand Rapid-, Mich., and will cheerfully answer any communica¬ tions in relation to our guo U.

It required but a short while after the alarm was given for the fire department to respond, although th) buildings were far out of tlie corporate limi's. When they reached the school the machinery hall and the engine mom were a mass of flames and immeudiately a general alarm w is turned in. Part of the hese had to be stretched from the corter of Marietta street and North avenue, a quarter of a mile distant, an f the delay occasioned by that added to the control he fire had gotten. When water was finally played upon adjoining the con- fligrat'OB the building the main building was doomed and the main efforts were directed to saving the lat er. Hardly a half hour after tho fire first started a portion of machinery hall foil in, and in the midst of the tn rce heat the firemen worked all the harder to check the course of the flames.

I made what little I own on that discovery. It was when I was running a little shop in one of the inte¬ rior towns. By mistake I put some on a man’s hair one day, and he came back to tell me that it worked like a charm. He did not know what it was, and I did not tell him. He said he wanted some more of it. and I gave it to him. Then I bought leveral gallons of it, scented it, put it in bottles, gave it some high sound¬ ing name, and people bought it by the dozen bottles. The demand was so great that I was afraid the grocer in the town would get on to me, and I st nt to Chicago and bought a barrel of it. I sold every drop of it for the hair.
