A fe dy ago Congress r'iit a whole day dirusiBg th question whether we had prj.tiiv th precept time in this country. Th important qnestim i'O iuh it still remains a disputed question. Th banker nnd bond are homing up money b.v the millions. The railroads are milking bit; money also. 1 1 ren in 1 i "a es a re i rg a i z-inir till over the countiy oil wheat, cot ton, wool, iron, stee', shoes and hides, and most nil oth-r things of prime necessity the oijct ol which is to bear down price ir buying ami IihII lip price when Hilling, controlling tho-markets so ii to manipulate great profits to the borders.

This kind of work is going on with great activity. Thin kind of busiuess in whnt the HepuDb-cin papers and politicians eall prosperity, and we hear lots of boasting along thin lino And many tf the poor hard up people are amazed wherttliey mid sbout it that kee more of it. This is McKimVj and Ding lev prosperity and we have such nrnsoeiit the laborinc i man's wages is rut down 10, 1.1 nnd 20 per cent. We poor fool. call thin hard timeaand worse a coming.

Whnt kind of prospenty would you prefer? Do yon want more Ding lej prosperity? Does the poor laboring man need pros peri Let us vote that he may hare tiiore of it. The cold bug men say that nereis pleiuy ol money, and rite us to the bankftto prove it. We admit that the banks have prosperity but where ll- l. no we ci.uie in: iir nine nothing to hrinr it mt. We! re wretchedly poor Cotton cents, horses and mules 10.

Labor one third less Taxes getting higher, debts barilertopav.no money to get to pay with. Prosperity is not forcing itself on the common people but hard times remain wi.th us. cr from Mich prosperity. More money end easier iron-ey is what we will haye to have or under we will go and become the victims of the favored money power. Will we long submit? Let the gold oligarchy be put down by the voters of the country; it is a dangerous power ar.d is becoming more so under the republican rule.

The State papers are sound ing the alarm the Mormon elder? who are be-i-oinifiir thick in the Sae. They are proselyting some of he people we learn! They fire numerous in several oth er Southern States, Tnn (Jeorgie, Alabama, etc. There are said to be 200 of the Elders in this State getting their bacon and beans free of charge, Ourjieople ore do- i ins wrong to give mem anp port free. If the people ould charge them for board nnd lodging they would soon If rive. They cannot get nny of onr meat nnd breao free.

We cannot encourage them in this wav. II a man never takes the first drink, he, will never die a drunkard. Men and medicine are judged curs by Hood's Sarsaparilla give it a good name everyw here. o-. .1:4 i 19 venrs Gaionthsand 1 dav.

Christ said: "The laborer is worthy of his hire," therefore the Mormon missionaries don't pay for To my mind there would be as intich leason lor saying ''Judas hanged himself, gi thou and do The.
