The goldbug club of Rising Sun
has a “tremendous” meeting posted
to take place the 7th, next Wednes
dsy—an all day racket—many big
names are announced but Billy
Marine’s is not among them.
The rally on Saturday night of
the goldbug club of liising Sun was
very unassuming in numbers, al
though the evening was most fav
orable for a large turnout. The
bankers’ cause does not draw.
The “marching club” was out on
Monday night, learning the McKin
ley step. Boys, you had better be
studying the vital questions which
deeply concern your welfare than
to be marching like trained animals
under a goldbug driver.
And Burgette—we mean the Rev.
Burgette Short, formerly of Vinegar
Hill, is among the goldbug Pharisee
preachers—in the newspapers only
—of New York, abusing Bryan be
cause the people hear him gladly.
All, Shorty, you’ll never get up
among the Wall street pulpit aris
tocracy. Your old Vinegar Hill
congregation are laughing at you.
The October Arena is a particu
larly strong nnmbes, and up to date
on the money question. The money
articles of Senator J. P. Jones, Sena
tor Morgan and Prof. Frank Parsons
are timely as well as able, and at
this particular period in the discus
sion of financial subjects will be
read with intense interest by all
shades of opinion on the absorbing
question.
Mr. Wm. Steel is discussing the
silver question with the editor of
the Perryville Record. Mr. Steel
appeal's very desirous to understand
the question but is wonderfully
mixed. If he will sit down and
carefully study his article in this
week’s Record he will see the con
tradiction in his reasoning. The
starting point is, the government
cannot make a 53-eent dollar with
a change of the law. That once
clear everything will become plain.
The Tuesday Night’s Heeting.
Notwithstanding the terrific storm
storm on Tuesday evening Mr.
Berry was promptly on hand and
Dr. Kirk’s hall was filled by an
attentive and applauding audience,
who enjoyed one of the best and
most telling speeches that has been
delivered in Rising Sun in the
course of the campaign. Had the
evening been such as would permit
a general attendance, five hundred
persons would have been present.
The large attendance in the face of
such a storm as raged ou Tuesday
night demonstrates the spirit which
animates the Bryan silver men. It
means victory for the people’s cause.
That riysterious Letter.
It has been circulated about town for
several days by the goldbug pals that a
letter had been received from a “promi
nent” titizen of New Jersey representing
Mr. Mortimer Whitehead as a very ques
tionable person, unreliable in business
matters and bearing about home anything
but an enviable reputation. Whether
such a letter is genuine or a fake is im
material, that it is false, slanderous and
libelous is evident, as the receiver or
holder of the letter keeps its contents from
the public and only reveals them to irre
sponsible stool pigeons who deal them
out on street corners. That Mr. White
head was for a number of years Lecturer
of the National Grange is a sufficient en
dorsement of the high and unimpeach
able character of the man, and such at
tempt to stab an honorable man in the
back ought to be resented as a personal
insult to every granger and farmer in this
neighborhood.
The Midland Journal, and we will
also add to the challenge of the Journal
that of Cecil Grange, the publication of
this mysterious, libelous letter, and if the
challenge is not met, by its publication,
we brand the reported letter a forgery and
fraud. Let the goldbug fakirs put up or
shut up.

Veterans for Bryan.
The outrageous attempt of Gen. Sickles
to brow-beat the veterans into voting for
McKinley, has proved a boomerang, and,
all over America, the heroic defenders of
the flag are repudiating this unwarranted
interference with their private affairs.
At a meeting of the Veteran Soldiers’
Bryan Club, of Lincoln, Nebraska, with
a membership of 105, the following reso
lution was adoped :
Resolved , That while we respect our
old comrades and commanders, General
Sigel, Sickles and others for their courage
and valor, we do not recognize their au
thority or wisdom in their attempt to con
trol or direct the votes of those who
marched in the ranks; whose equal valor
and courage placed the wreaths of laurel
upon the brows of their commanders. We
believe that, as citizens, we are competent
to decide for ourselves. Further, that we
are more loyal to the old flag than are
those who consent to the control by for
eign nations of our financial policy.
Splendid ! There’s patriotism for you !
The old soldier has not lost one particle
of his courage, and fights as ably and
successfully as of yore.
“Rally ’round the flag, boys ! ” — Phila.
Hem.
The Rising Sun goldbug club was sup
plied ou Saturday night last with a speak
er by the Mark Hanna bureau of Balti
, more, Mr. Geo. R. Gaither, who held
forth in a spirited way, a large part of liis
speech being the regular stereotyped
spread eagle which answers equally well
for all parties and is extensively used
when the speaker’s subject is barren of
facts and the speaker of ideas, as is gen
erally the case this campaign with the
McKinley speakers.
Mr. George R. Gaither “proposed” to
: discuss the silver question, but when he
had closed ou that subject not a man in
the audience knew what he was driving
at. Mr. Gaither gave his audience no in
formation on the subject whatever. As
the lawyer who quoted Latin to the jury
and told them it was Greek, when re
minded by the Court he was quoting
Latin, said: “Your Honor, it is all Greek
to the jury.” So Mr. Gaither’s silver talk
might as well have been in Greek for all
the information his audience got on the
subject from it.
Mr. Gaither skimmed over and skirm
ished round the questions at issue hut
discussed none of them. His grand dash
was into the immense prosperity of 1892
which struck the country like a spring
tide. Nothing since the organization of
society or the establishment of civil gov
ernment has equaled that wave of pros
perity which submerged the country in
1592. It is strange that the discovery of
this unparalleled prosperity was not heard
of till this campaign began. Then the
goldbug press began to tell about it, and
Mr, Gaither was lifted off his feet telling
it to the audience, and as none of them
had ever heard of the occurrence before,
, the faithful band of McKinley clacquers
clapped and shouted, and the small boy
in the street blew his whistle shrilly and
all were happy. There is something sin
gular about this immense prosperity of
1892. The farmers never heard of it.
They were called “calamity howlers"
, about that time, and of course weren’t
“howling” because of prosperity. Dunn
and Bradslreet’s report 10,270 failures of
business firms that year with liabilities
1108,595,248. These unfortunates, like
the farmers, must have been missed by
the great golden wave. Harrison and the
republican party who had been in power
for four years must have been the authors
of that unequaled prosperity, and yet the
unreasoning, ungrateful people were so
disgusted with their great prosperity that
they bundled them out of power, neck
and heels, and placed Cleveland in the
White House and a democratic congress
with a big majority in the House —a
mighty poor trade in our opinion, but they
did it all the same. This appears like a very
strange requital for the authors of such
immense prosperity which happened in
1592. They have just found it out it ap
pears, and it fits that water melon story
the speaker told.
Mr. Gaither had something to say about
the illustrated “Farmer” article published
in the Midland Journal Sept. 18th, but
only to apologize for the caricatures
which were produced of the farmer, from
the leading goldbug papers. He said the
Jews and the dudes and the summer girl,
etc., were pictured in a similar style but
it didn’t hurt them any. They didn’t
mind it and the inference to be drawn
was that the farmers oughn’t to mind it.
Well, they won’t, but they will not forget
the authors next November. It was
noticeable that Mr. Gaither did not attack
the article he referred to. It bristles with
truths that can’t be met by the goldbugs.
When speaking of the silver of all the
world coming to the United Slates in the
event of free coinage, he should have read
to the audience the article in the Mid
land Journal, published the day before.
It would have given his hearers a great
deal more information ou the silver flood
than Mr. Gaither imparted in his entire
discourse.
When Mr. 11. 11. Haines introduced the
speaker, byway of preliminary remarks
he assured the meeting that there was no
doubt whatever that Maryland would go
for McKinley by 25,000 majority. That
was as sure as if the polls had been count
ed and vote returned. He had been to
Baltimore and Philadelphia and learned
1 all about it. This meant—and it could
• mean nothing else —that Mark Hanna had
- counted out the required sum to pay the
- citizens of Maryland for their votes for
■ McKinley. These goldbugs actually be
- lieve that the white men in 1896 can be
5 bought and sold and driven like the
1 “niggers” of 1856, and having bought
s them at the polls they will get their
money back by keeping them raising 50
1 cent wheat and 15 cent oats, and other
r. products in proportion,
f Chairman Haines also told the meeting
e that the club was making arrangements
, to organize a “marching” company and
1 a glee club, and Mr. C. W. Wilson sang a
r “protection” song to demoustrate how
the thing would work.
The Bulldozers Campaign.
i The coercion of employes into joining
• McKinley clubs and participating in fake
demonstrations for a gold standard is not
f confined to the railroads. It is in every
[ line of industry that represeuts large ag
gregations of wealth. It is in the mills
’ and mines and stores all over the country,
i F’or the sake of effect on voters at large
■ every effort that cunning can devise and
money sustain is made to make it appear
- that the wageworkers of the country are
1 not only believers in single gold standard
: but are organized to maintain it. It is the
greatest fake on earth and can fool nobody
, who thinks.
Thus writes Coxey’s “Sound Money,”
and thus are proclaiming all the papers
' in the country which are not chained by
> the gold trust and bidden to do as ordered.
: A reign of terror is inaugurated through
■ out the country by large establishments
where great numbers of men are em
• ployed. To disobey or seem not to obey
: means discharge immediately. The fol
' lowing instance is related by “New
Road : ”
“When Bryan and party passed through
Canton, 0., the Bonnat Manufacturing
Company ordered their men not to stop
work or step outside the shop or look out
of the windows when the Biyau train ar
- rived. The Bryan reception was held
within 40 yards of the Bonnat shops and
in full view of the same. When the train
1 arrived from 8,000 to 10,000 people gath
ered at the station, the band played, the
’ crowd cheered and although the crowd
1 was within a few feet of the shops the
. wage slaves did not dare to lift their eyes
from their work for fear of discharge.
1 Two of the most expert pattern makers in
, Ohio, one a McKinley man and the other
a Bryan man, laid down their tools and
- stepped outside to see Bryan who was
speaking from a flat-car. One was dis
; charged within an hour with unfinished
work on the table, and the other with
> unfinished job was discharged the next
, afternoon.”
1 The campaign of bulldozing is general
; throughout the country. It is reported in
. full force by the railroads, which enclose
i circulars in the pay envelope to their men
• advising them the way they should vote.
. We have not heard of the Pennsylvania
, railroad resorting to this slave-driving
; system, and it is about the only great sys
: tern that has kept its head above water,
| pretty much all the others being in the
; hands of receivers and hence under the
hand of the great gold oligarchy of
■ Europe. Every factory, every mine,
: every great mercantile establishment feels
1 the rod of the gold trust, enforced by the
> banks through which they do business,
; These establishments in turn threaten
r their employes with discharge if they do
• not obey orders and hurrah for McKinley.
• The banks in turn which are enforcing
1 these Weyler terms on the great business
f establishments, are under the Wall street
I banks, and they are under the great
i European money oligarchy whose seat of
1 empire or throne is located in London and
j controlled by the Rothschild house. The
1 republican party is the tool of this great
, plutocratic empire in the United States,
i by which it reaches and controls the
7 government.
1 The 9,000,000 mortgages which the cen
sus reports reveal were laid ou the farms
f during the present reign of this gold dy
. nasty and are now being worked ns the
’ engine of that tyrannical power by which
t the farmer is reached, aud made to feel the
1 galling chains of this plutocratic tyranny,
f The Pittsburg Dispatch of Sept. 13, 1896,
> says :
! “Over fifty pieces of property were sold
' in the Court House yesterday at Sheriff’s
. sale. It is the second sale for the week
. and in all 112 properties have been sold.
Almost all are foreclosures of mortgages.
! “The sales of properties 011 foreclosured
1 mortgages have been larger than in the
1 same period for years. Last mouth ninety
properties were sold 011 mortgages, this
month 112, and more to be sold at the
next regular sale.
Nearly all the properties sold are small,
most of them being dwelling houses rang
ing in value from #I,OOO to #B,OOO. The
mortgages are for much less, and the in
vestments are good ones as long as the
interest is paid,
“In most of the sales yesterday there
were but a few bidders to run up the price.
When this was the case, the holder of the
writ on which the property was sold
bought in the property, bidding just
enough to cover the cost.
“This made him the owner of the prop
erty. In case he held a bond with his
mortgage, he had the property, and the
former owner still owed him the original
debt.”
The above is a specimen of the manner
farmers and others under the slavery of
mortgaged homes are being bulldozed
and frightened into voting for McKinley.
The men holding the mortgages are being
frightened by the great conspirators who
declare to them their mortgages will be
paid with dollars that are depreciated 50
per cent if silver is remonetized. And the
most of them are so illy informed that
they believe the conspirators.
So this bulldozing bank conspiracy
against the people touches the great rail
road corporation and every branch of in
dustry down to the humblest wage earner.
It is frightful when calmly considered.
If a tyranny can wield a power like this
when it is but half seated on the throne
of Imperial power, what may the people
expect if it be allowed to grin absolute ,
control —or rather possession —of the gov
ernment ? Can any man look this thing
in the face and not tremble ? And worse
1 than all is it to see blind slaves moving
1 up like cattle driven into the shambles, to
. vote onto themselves and their posterity
• the fate which so surely awaits them, as
1 shown by what is taking place all about
l them.

f I Writing from Central State Normal
5 School, Lock Haven, Pa, Mr. W- If

' gymnasium says: “I take pleasure in stat
? ing, that members of our base ball club

A QUEEE INCU3ATOFL
■ One That Is Used to Hutch Out Microbes
for Experimental Purposes.
A firm in Regent street, London,
■ makes a business of hatching out. ui-li
fleial ’birds, chickens and the like, and
the incubators adapted for their 'a
’ rious pur|Rises are lined up against the
sides of the long room. They also
’ take infants that are prematurely born
l and by keeping them in a certain and
• unvarying temperature, and giving
- them proper nourishment, dtwelop
[ .them into healthy and lusty babies.
Perhaps the strangest of all their
many appliances for hatching living
organisms is their biological incubator.
Here are “cultivated” whole “colonies”
’ of deadly microbes for purposes of bac
i teriological investigation and experi
■ ment.
The cholera hncillus, the scarlet fever
micrococcus, the leprosy and tubercu
losis bacilli and dozens of other vnri
’ etres of these pestiferous little organ
isms propagate themselves in these
’ forcing houses with marvelous rapid
- ity. They are. grown, on small loziuge
r shaped pieces of gelatine, and a frag
ment the size of a quarter suffices to
maintain a "colony” of 80,000,000 of mi
' crobes.
’ This particular incubator is fastened
|! by two locks of t.he latest design and!
most intricate construction; in
| view of the terrible results that might
| possibly follow from an unauthorized
1 meddling with its grewsome contents,
■ the precaution seems a wholly neces

the attack. The mothers of croupy chil

When this tube gets inflamed you have a

when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
