These chained and guarded toilers ou the street,
Sentenced to slavery for being poor,

Bravely borne punishments for some loved cause.

Among the rich and powerful of earth?
Whoso causes unnecessary pain,
Inflicts great suffering, creates a dearth
Of things man needs to live, drives from the soil
The creatures who must use it or must die—
These are the criminals, and these alone

Look not for criminals among the weak,
The unfortunate, the robbed, the penniless;
These may have pitifully goue astray,
But had no power to exploit or oppress;
But rather look among the mighty ones of enrth,
Who rob the toiler, sell the poor, and kill
Their fellow men, lead them on to slaughter,
Sacrifice life, love and joy to work their will.

A PLEA FOR UNION ON A NEW BASIS.
The Movement of Today Comes from the
People Who Are Responsible to No Bosses.
E d . H euald :
To compare the
present movement in favor of union
with such fusion as we have had in
the past is unfair; and it is extremely
illogical to argue that because fusion
iu the past has not made for good
government, that union now would
necessarily make for bad govern
ment. The fusions we have had
heretofore were mostly brought
nbout by so-called leaders of the

wo have so little in common that
harmonious action is impossible.
If they are acoejited we can proceed
to select a ticket to be composed of
men from each party, and every
man nominated by either part}’ shall
pass muster before each convention;
so that if a man with an unfavorable
record is offered by one convention
the other two can reject him.
Of
what avail, then, would be the ma
chine? Undoubtedly the Populists
would reject a machine man, even
though ho passed the other conven
tions.
Aud the outcome of this
would

A Soldier’s Escape.
From thè Democrat-Message, Ml Sterling, El.
When Richmond had fallen and the great
commanders had met beneath the historic
apple tree at Appomattox, the 83d Penn
sylvania Volunteers, prematurely aged, clad
in tatters and rags, broken in hotly but of
dauntless spirit, swung into liue for the last
“ grand review“ and then quietly marched
away to begin life's fray anew. Rebel shot
and shell, the dread miasma of the southern
swamp, sleepless nights and wearisome days
had depleted their ranks until only a hand
ful remained. Among the number Asa Rob
inson came back to the old home_jjr Mt.
Sterling, Ills.; that he had left at the call to
arms four years previous. He went away in
the first flush of vigorous ruauhood; he came
back a ghost of the self that answered to
President Lincoln*« call for“ 300,000 more."
With his return to the old homestead
there came to him the knowledge that war
with him was only begun; that he must
fight the battle with disease to the end of his
days; that the glare of a southern sun and
the galling fire of a southern soldiery were
as nothing compared to the onslaught of an
enemy that fought under cover and disre
garded all the rules of civilized warfare.
Sciatic rheumatism fastened its fangs upon
him. incapacitating him for manual labor nnd
rendering him, much of the time, physically
as helpless as an infant. The years passed
by, but his sufferings, with increasing age,
were increased rather than diminished, lie
spent a small fortune for doctor’s medicine,
praying for even temporary relief, but it did
not coine.
To-day he is an alert, active man of fifty-
five years. His rheumatic pains have de
parted, and while there are traces of his
years of suffering in his face he walks with
the soldierly bearing and springy step of a
healthy young man.
To tne Democrat-Message reporter he talked
freely about his case. Mr. Robinson is a man
