THE MODERN FARMER.
Hi Lot la Improving Faster than
That of Other Men.
The old-time farmer'i boy wag not seri
ously to blame for striking out for the
city. His pathway of life was not strewn
with roses, nor were his days a succession
of Joyous picnics. He was compelled to
rise early in the morning, long before the
lark hid ceased from slumber, and bring
the cows from the dewy pasture. He was
expected, before he had a chance to sat
isfy hU morning hunger, to "pail" six
cows; be kicked over at least once; feed
end groom four horses, and carry food
and drink to at least twenty-five head of
open-faced swine.
In the summer he was expected to hold
the handles of a bull tongue plow and
tramp adown the rows of corn until long
after the chickens had gone to their night
ly rest. Iu the fall, when the old horse
power threshing machine came around, he
tood at the tail end and forked away the
straw, while ragweed dust filled his lungs
and clogged the pores of his skin. In the
wiuter he was sent out to pick stones from
the rocky field, and as he picked, fresh
stone sprang up like dragons' teeth to
take the place of those he had gathered.
He bad no time to read, and mighty little
for rest It Isn't any wonder he got tired
if the business and struck out for the city.
Now it diflereut. The furnier no longer
comes to town In his road wagon, sitting
on a two-inch plank laid across the top of
the wagon, but he rides in his surrey, his
horses arrayed In silver-mounted harness.
Ue sits in a carriage seut to plow his
grouud, and after his day's work is done
takes walk for exercise. The old-fash-lowd
horse-killing and man-destroying
threshing machine has given way to a
modem invention run by steam, automat
ically fed, which stacks Its own straw,,
and measures, weighs and loads the grain,
while the farmer, seated in the comforta
ble shade, may watch the operation. Ills
hay Is stacked by machinery, and baled
by machinery. His water is pumped by
machinery. His stock will soon be fed
by machinery. He is begiuning to put In
telephones and order his groceries over the
wire.
The time I near at hand when, Instead
of being the slave of toll, the farmer will
be the man of leisure as well as the man
of capital.
When that time come It will be found
that the ambition of young men will lie
In the direction of becoming landed coun
try gentlemen Instead of hard-driven,
overworked and smothered-for-air resi
dent of the cities.
Silver Issue Dead.
From all reliable sources It appears that
Ult tun oh advertised 10-to-l camp meet

spicuous failure. The Cincinnati Kuquir

An Object Lesson.
The financial Sitlintinn in Iha Snnthnn.
Republic presents an object lesson which
snouia not be lost upon our friends, the
flee Silver Ilimitiea Allcu.na frnm
City of Mexico, in the words of a recent
arrival from that unhappy place, paint "a
gloomy picture of the future." A young
Californian who has resided there for
three or four years, and who has held a
conspicuous position in a large business
concern, states that the decline in the
price of silver has practically driven him
out of business. He says that everything
has gone up threefold except wages. Ow
ing to the tremendous discount on that
metal working people are now scarcely
able to earn sufficient to procure the nec
essaries of life.
All branches of business are paralyzed
and Americans are leaving the country in
droves. Merchants who have outstanding
accounts and who are compelled to collect
them in silver are being put to a tremen
dous loss. When this young man left
Mexico it took $2.50 to buy $1 in ex
change, a condition which has practically
destroyed the importing business, and
which is gradually crippling the Govern
ment: for as imnorta derlinp the ratkinnoa
of the republic are obliterated.
lue evolution of a free silver basis in
Mexico substantiates everything alleged
by the onnoncnts of Mr. Rev n In tho In tit
presidential campaign in this country. It
was wen said that wages were the last to
go UD. and that enrrener inflntinn nf ,.,.
kind was injurious to the masses. This
l always the fact Capital takes enre of
Itself, but labor is always the victim of
prevailing circumstances. Vt it i.
strange coincidence that of the several
millions of people who voted for William
J. Bryan, probably 75 per cent were men
who, had his financial theories been put
into euect, would have suffered the most.

Management of the Party.
Senator Jones of Arkansas, the boss of
the Democratic party, appears to be a
readv letter writer. Ha reeentlr sent nne
to the Democratic State Committee of
New York, in which he declared it would
be "impolitic" to indorse the Chicago plat-
rorm. .But ne has written other, letters.
For Instance, one was nrodueed vester-
day In which he urged an entirely differ
ent policy from that he advocated on
Wednesday. The letter in question was
written to James O'Brien, formerly sheriff
of New York, and in it Mr. Jones said:
I sincerely hope that genuine and loyal
Democrats get control of the organization
Iu your Slate. It occurs to nie that It would
be wise for.a State couvention to be assem-

and Uou't know Just what would be proper
for me to auy or do Iu that connection, or
whether 1 should uy anything at all.
The result of this veering around is
that the Bryanites are incensed with
Jones and are saying ugly things about
him. Nevertheless Junes is the boss of
the party, and feels that it Is within his
proviuce to go around with the wind and
generally do as he pleases. For Jones is
from the South, and the South is in the
Democratic saddle, and as faithful and
subservient creatures of the South, the
Democrats of New York obey his orders.
A "The Journal" repeatedly ha declar
ed, we are going to see history repeat

North again the pliable, submissive, cring

air of ingenuousness given to the commit
tee's discovery that It was clearly with
out authority to write a party platform,
its failure to express Inst Wednesday even
the smallest opinion on public question
bears all the earmarks of deliberate and
studied policy. Moreover, the plausible
excuses for dodging a reaffirmation of the
Chicago platform so obligingly furnished
to Senator Murphy by Chairman Jones of
the Democratic Nntionnl Committee fail
wholly to obscure the muin fact that the
Democratic organization in the foremost
State of the Union practically hauled
down the silver flag when, by a policy of
inaction and silence, It committed itself
to conducting a State campaign on lines
which virtually ignore the declarations ac
cepted a year ago as Democratic faith by
the national convention at Chicago.

BRYAN REVERSES HIMSELF.
Impertinence and E (front ry fast
-Would Shame a Street Fakir.
A year ago W. J. Bryan was traveling
back and forth across the American con
tinent declaring that the law of supply
and demand had nothing whatever to do
with the prices of American products, and
thnt the only hope for advancement out of
the condition of industrial prostration was
through the free and unlimited coinage of
silver. Now he is campaigning among the
same people with the unreserved declara
tion that government policies, legislation,
financial systems, etc., have nothing w hat
ever to do with the price of products, but
that they are governed solely by the luw
of supply and demand.
It would not be so bad If Mr. Bryan re
mained content with reversing himself.
But with an tmpertiueuce and effrontery
that would make a patent medicine fakir
ashamed of himself he proceeds to reverse
all of the American people who did not
agree with his highpopalorutn theory of a
year ago. Everywhere and upon all oc
cntiona the Republicans Insisted during
the campaign of 1800 that the price of
product wa governed by the law of up
ply and demand. Now Mr. Bryan i striv
ing to make it appear that the ltepubli
can have abandoned their contention of
a year ago and are claiming that the ad
vance In the price of wheat and corn is
solely due to ltepublican legislation and
uui io me operations of the law of supply
aud demand. This is false nnd Mr. Bi van
knows it is false. Because he has come

Adviees from Mexico show that states
men there are urging step looking to th
adoption of the gold standard.
Mr. Bryan is so busy studying Spanish
that he has not had time to explain th
.advance in the price of wheat.
Ex-Candidate Bryan, in an article in tht
New York World, say: "Those who
favored free coinage may be wrong." Can
it be possible, Mr. Bryant
The advance in the price of wool and
sheep will soon bring back to the farmers
the 75 million dollars loss in the value of
sheep which befell them under the Wilson
law.
The more the coal strike I studied the

Did Mr. Bryan demand that $1,500 ht
is to get for his Ohio speech in "gold coin
of present stuudard weight and fineness"!
That is the habit of his masters; why net
Bryan, too?

Why don't Professor Debs and his as
sociates call on the frumers of the Wil
son law to help out the miners? It wa
clearly the leduction of the tariff that
caused the reduction in the miners' wage.
Oh, by the way, have the Ohio aud Iowa

They seem to be strangely sllcut tu th

Advice frem abroad show that the for
eign rye crop is as badly off as the wheat
crop, ami as rye Is hugely used for bread
In Lluro.un countries, this development
indicates a still greater demand for Amer
ica u wheat.
The calamity sbriekers of last year have
not told the farmers yet how it is that
wool aud wheat have advanced 50 per
cent in price since their shrieits of last
year while silver hits tueuutluie industri

The British goldbugs again have th
