A Financial Proposition.

The Chicago Times (weekly) and the People's Pilot for $1.50. Tom Watson’s paper and the Pilot, both one year, for $1.50. Another sale of $100,000,009 bonds is to occur at once, whether authorized by congress or not. The People’s Pilot and Vincent’s Searchlight both one vear for $1.50, regular rates $2.00. ’ ' Wheat at its lowest record, too'chaap to ship from Washington and Oregon, yet starvation alarms the idle population of those great states. In the election of Lucien Baker the Kansas republicans have added another free silver member to the United States senate and a man far in the van of the old managers of his party it that state. All the power of the great banking, interests is being brought into activity to destroy the few remaining greenbacks, and create a perpetual bonded debt $500,000,000 greater Ilian it now is. Don’t blame the democratic party for this scheme, for the brains behind this iniquity is John Shermau, the financial Moses of the republican party.

The president says he will sell *500,000,000 of 5 per cent, bonds if necessary to keep the gold reserve in the treasury. Belmont and a delegation of New York bankers have called upon Cleveland and Carlisle and threatened another crisis unless more bonds are issued. Mr. Belmont is the American head of the Rothschilds. The bonds will come. Gov. Morton was elected by upwards of 100,000 and in accordance with that verdict his first official act of any moment is to call out the state troops to break a strike of organized labor against a privileged corporation. —Searchlight. The plan is now in South Carolina for the republicans and the ancient aristocracy led by Senator Butler and Wade Hampton to unite to beat the populists. That is the beginning of the end —we have been hoping for it and expecting it.—Hartford Arena. Chicago is happy once more. Her prayer for a £4,000,000 ap•propriation with which to satisfy a few hundred hungry politicians, and incidentally construct a million-dolla*’ post office building was favorably acted upon by congress last Monday. —Searchlight. Mrs. Emory’s “Seven Financial Conspiracies” should be read by every person in the United States. It gives a history of the legislation that has built the money power of America. Sent post paid to any address for 10 cents or three copies for 25 cents. Address this effice. The cause of the strike in Brooklyn was the violation of law by the street car companies. A law which says a day's labor for a street car employe “shall consist of ten hours, to run within twelve consecutive hours.” No attention was paid to the law, and the millitia is being used to help enforce violation of law.
