POLITICAL PICKUPS.
The richest now thing in politics Is
tho command of that presumptious dic
tator, tho Philadelphia Times , that tho
bolting Democrats nominate David li.
Hill for president. Hill on a gold plat
form would bo tho very height of ridicu
lousness. A man who a few years ago was
considered the destined leader of tho
silver forces for president in 1896, who
by his actions aided tho movement pub
licly and privately, who made speeches
and voted for silver in congress, who
was beaten for governor of New York by
the gold men of his party because he
favored free silver, and who, until ho
bent under the pressure of the bankers
of Wall street a very few months ago,
towered above all the silver advocates
in the party—a pretty candidate he
would bo to oppose a Democrat because
that Democrat is a friend of silver.
Hill's vacillating course, not on silver
alone but on every Issue that lias come
before Democracy in recent years, has
left him where he Is today. Ho long ago
stamped himself as a political weather
cock who turns the way he thinks will
prove most advantageous to his ambi
tion, but fortunately his judgment on
public questions is so shallow that his
dosigns are apparent to all who keep
tab on his juinping-jack movements.
The bolters should nominate Hill, aud
the vote he will get will prove what is
thought of such inconsistents as ho.
Roadcrs of metropolitan gold papers
will notice how bare their columns are
of arguments. Their stock in trade
consists of passionate tirades against all
who differ in opinion with thorn. Our
editorial friends in the city sanctums
should not assume that the voters of the
present age are so ignorant as to be led
away by the billingsgate they publish
daily. If the country is to be convinced
that gold alone should be supreme, why
not do the friends of gold produce their
proofs? So far nothing has been heard
against silver except that the men who
advocate it are "anarchists," "fan
atics," "destroyers of tho nation's
credit," otc. Thoso terms do not
constitute arguments, and the more
they arc indulgod in tho brighter bo
comes Bryan's chances of election.
The man who sincerely bcllovos that ho
cannot consistently support candidates
who declare for tho abolishment of
gold as tho standard of valuo has a per
fect right to leave the Democratic party,
and he should bo respected for his devo
tion to his convictions. It is a question,
however, if all of those who have been
reported as having left the party did so
upon the grounds of principle. The
chance to obtain a littlo notoriety and
free advertising is a big inducement to
many people to change their politics, and
it is noticoablu that this opportunity was
not missed by some who were hitherto
classed as dyed-in-tho-wool Democrats.
Devotion to a principle is an admirable
trait, devotion to self-interest is con
temptible.
More than a year ago tho TRIBUNE re
marked that the free silvor sentiment
had a stronger hold in Luzerne county
than some peoplo imagined. Present
events go to show that we wore right.
In the list of Democrats and Democratic
newspapers who bolted tho platform
Luzerne is conspicuously absent. This
county contains just tho kind of Demo
crats who would jump the traces if the
nominees did not suit thorn, and their
action in upholding the Chicago conven
tion proves that they were prepared to
accept the most radical silver plank that
could bo inserted in tho platform.
Freeland's famous Republican, Joe
Nouburger, has a decided leaning to
wards Bryan. Mr N. receive! his nat
uralization papers from the father of
tho next president, who was at that
time judge of the circuit court of Illinois.
Joe has prospered since Judge Bryan con
ferred upon him tho rights and privileges
of American citizenship, and ho natur
ally has a kindly fooling for the son of
Ills benefactor.
Abe Stroh, one of tho best known men
in this part of tho state, who hereto
fore was an unflinching Republican on
national questions, has pronounced for
Bryan and silver. Abe has studied the
issue thoroughly aud he has not yet met
a gold man who can puzzle hiiu on tho
financial question.
The Democratic delegate elections on
Saturday evening promise to bo very

from the raco leaves Matt Long tho only

LIVE QUESTIONS.
A Series of Articles Contributed by
Advanced Thinkers.
NATURAL WAGES.
The question of wages concerns you
personally, for every man who works
for another is a worker for wages.
Wages are the laborer's return for labor.
What are natural wages? There Is a law
which governs the wages, but it is not
a statute. Regulating wages by statuto
fails. Those statutes were not vital laws;
they violated nature aud were evil in
their influence. Tho natural law of
wages is at work all tho time, every
where, regardless of statutes. A farmer
who flnds that ho makes a bare living
should know that ho is obeying the law
of wages, and if his condition is to be
bettered, it must bo by improving this
law.
Wages arc fixed by tho relations of
man to man. In trying to understand
tho problem wo must study society und
the Individual. What is tho nature of
society? It is a growing organism gov
erned by natural laws. A man is a liv
ing being, but society is a living being,
too, of which we nro tho colls. It has
natural laws to govern it. When these
laws are discovered and obeyed, society
is healthy; if they are disobeyed, it suf
fers and degenerates. Many economists
seem to think that society is a compli
cated machine through which wo must,
with much thought, build up und keep
it in motion. No idea could bo cruder.
Put a new Adam aud Evo in a now
Eden; a society will grow up, governed
by tho laws of nature. But mau's reason
has doveloped and given him a kuowl-
JOHN lIEKDEKT QUICK,
edge of justice and righteousness, which
enables him to abolish wage slavery.
What docs nature say about wages? Sho
says to tho laborer, "All you make by
your unaided labor is yours to consume
or exchange." But if you want, to produce
faster than your unaided labor will al
low and desire to use tho tools und seed
and animals of others, you must pay
for them for such use, and this is in
terest. And if you go upon laud which
is better than tho poorest in use, you
muHt pay tho difference in valuo be
tween such land and the poorest in uso,
and tills is rent Nuturul wages, there
fore, are that portion of the laborer's
prodneo which remains after interest
and rent are paid.
But there is another deduotion yet to
be made—-from tho landlord's rent tho
capitalist's interest and tho laborer's
wages there is taken a sharo by the im
position of taxes.
The forces which opcrato and fix
wages are:
First. —Tho law of rent. For what
ever tho laborer must pay for tho privi
lege of living and working upon land
reduces the port ion of his product which
ho may retain.
Second.—Tho law of interest. For
whatever ho pays for tho uso of capital
makes less what ho may keep.
Third.—Taxes. For what he pays,
either directly or indirectly, on account
of taxes lowers his real wages.
Fourth.—Tho productiveness of la
bor. Natural interest is fixed by tho av
erage natural increase of all forms of
wealth. Wlioat and many other forms
of wealth nuturally increase. But iron,
gold, silver do not lncrense, and houses,
groceries and many others decrease. On
tho average, however, wealth increases
by the forces of natnre. No ono knows
what tho nverago rato is. Where n just
scalo of wages will place tho masses bo
yond tho power of tho usurer, lutorest
will gravitate to its just rato, and tho
capitalist will receive only Ills propdi
share of the increased output made pos
sible by his capital.
The most potent forco which bears
upon wages is rent. By rent I mean
what tho laborer puys for laud, whether
in a lump, as purchaso price, or by the
week, month or year, as rentals; for
land, I repeat, for what is paid for
houses und improvement is not properly
rent, though it is usually so called. Let
us show you how it is that rent is the
strongest force bearing on wages.
Ifou pay SSOO for capital—a thrash
ing machine or loom. You pay it direct
ly or indirectly to the man who made
it. It makes your work more produc
tive. Thrashing machines and looms do
not exist naturally. Some one must
make them and must bo paid for mak
ing them.
You pay SSOO for a piece of land for
a farm or a building lot. Tho lundlord
to whom you paid the price did not
make tho land. God rnndo it. It was
hero before man. Tho owner and his
ancestors may never have dono a day'B
work or produced anything. But he re
ceives your ten years' suvings. If tho
face of nature was free, you might have
kept tho SSOO. V our wages would have
been increased thereby. Our land system
permits those who do nothing to toko
awny tho produce of those who work,
thus lowering wages. By paying inter
est or price for capital wo get tools or
seed or stock, which increases our out
put But the price of land does not af
fect production at all.
Furthermore, tho price of land, rent,
increases by tho increase of population
and progress in tho arts without uny work
on the loudlords' part. After all the
good land is taken up there is 110 fur
ther outlet for the unemployed, and
those who own 110 land must pay mort
for It. Farms which used to rent foi
one-fourth tho crop now command one
half or cash rent equal to much more.
In cities it is still higher. All this cuts
wages down. Anywhere wo must have
land, and if none is free wo aro forced
to bid against each other until, 110 mat
ter what is paid to us, wo retain noth
ing but a mero living. Everywhere the
laborer makes a mere living. Every
where ront adjusts itself so as to swal
low everything else. Out in the arid
regions of the west, where tho parched
soil yields but stingy returns, the land
lord gets one-sixth or one-fourth; a little
farther east he gets one-third to one
half ; then begin the more populous re
gions, whero cash rent takes still more,
while in New York and Chicago, where
thousands of people live mid woi'k in
every block, what they produce above a
mero living yields tho owners of the
laud in some places f 1,000,000 per ucre
per year. Everywhere tho laborer gots
a mero living.
Increased productiveness of labor
makes no difforeuco with wages. We
have steam and electricity and solf
binders and all sorts of improved ma
chinery, but wo reccivo only a living
wage. But tho prico of land—rent—is
higher. Interest is no higher—true in
terest, I mean, derived from absolutely
safe loans. It is now only from 2% per
cent to 4 percent per annum, and if the
two funds, wages and interest, do not
increase, tliero is no placo to look for
the increased product but in tho prico
of laud, which is rent, tho third fund.
It has been discovered by Adam
Smith, Mill, Ricardo and others that
wages seem naturally to tend to a min
imum which will just permit laborers
to live. In other words, wages aro fixed
by tho standard of living.
A great many economists havo urged
that this is because tho earth is not
yielding enough to meet the wants of
an increasing population. But wo know
better than this. Every pair of hands
has now tho power of producing vastly
more than 100 years ago. Butwhatover
the incrouso it does not go to capitalist
or laborer, but to tho landowner. *
Natural wages aro measured by what
is loft to tho laborer after ho has paid
interest, taxes and rent, and whatever
interest and taxes may leavo, rent con
sumes the balance.
Does this moan that wages must al
ways rest at the mere living point? No.
With tho remedy this article has noth
ing to do. But any ono can seo that if
what I have said is true tho remedy is
not to be found in increased production,
or greater frugality and thrift, or regu
lations of interest rate, but in some
change in our land system.

WHAT IS MIND?
M. Hibot, who has done so much ex
cellent work in neurology and psychol
ogy, has shown recently that tho human
mind is capablo of greater tilings than
it has yet accomplished. Ho announces
that the brain does for tho mind what
tho heart does for the blood. The brain,
in other words, is tho mind organ. But
ho further claims that tho mind is ma
terial. This is quito a startling state
ment and will not be believed by many.
His method of reaching those conclu
sions is unique. One day a hospital pa
tient was relating to one of his assistants
that when in a trance sho saw a thin
gray mist circulating around the brain.
This hint set tho scientist to work. Ho
utilized a large number of subjects, and
all of them gave uniform testimony to
the fact that in seeing tho brain in tranco
they saw its movomeuts and that those
were surroundod by a gray mist. This
arose and spread over the surface of t ho
brain and then throughout tho nervous
system. Tho idea thus circulates or goes
in wavo movement from tho originating
center to all ports of the nervous system
and thou returns again to tho brain.
Tho hypnotic subjects nro called "hu
man microscopes," as it is with their
souls that M. Hibot sees these marvelous
movements. Before rejecting wholly
this hypothesis wo would do well to
weigh tho evidence and investigate tho
subject as far as passible. If theso hyp
notic people sco correctly and there is
"a thin gray mist" accompanying
thought in tho brain, it does not neces
sarily follow that the mist is tho mind,
no morn than it follows that smoke is
firo Just becauso tho one always ariser
from the other. Wo aro doubtless verg
ing closo on to somo great discoveries
and may bo ablo yet to know mind in
its very last analysis, but until wo liuvo
something more definite wo should bo
slow to affirm that mind is material.
HOW WE ARE REPRESENTED.
The man with calloused hands and
dußt begrimed faco and tho man with
ono gallus and a soro heel, though con
stituting by far tho largest portion of
our population, havo but very littlo rec
ognition in our national legislature.
Hero aro somo statistics which wo take
from tho plutocratic press and which, of
cpurso, givo tho producers as good a
showing as possible, crediting sevoral
men to occupations which aro theirs by
proxy only, notably tho farmers in tho
lower house. It is as follows:
House of representatives—223 law
yers (00 per cent), 24 farmers, 18 news
paper men, 10 merchants, 15 manufac
turers, 9 physicians, 6 bankers, 5 lum
bermen, 4 railroad men, 8 brokers, 8
collego professors, 2 clergymen, 2 ship
owners, 1 miner, 2 builders, 1 architect,
1 printer, 1 druggist, 1 theatrical man
ager, 1 schoolteacher, 1 musio teacher,
10 professional politicians. Total, 350.
Senate (tho millionaires' club) —00
lawyers (08 per cent), 8 farmers, 3
newspaper men, 1 maufaeturer, 0 mer
chants, 1 physician, 1 banker, 8 rail
road men, 2 clergymen,, 1 shipowner, 2
miners, 6 professional politicians. To
tal, 88.
You will cease to wonder when you
view these figures that the producers'
interests have suffered at the hands of
national legislators while the monopo
lists' have been unduly augmented.—

Ila/.leton, Pa., Jtdy 14, 1890.
EDITOR TBIBUNK.—In your issue of tin
13th lust, appears, over his signature,
the withdrawal of I)r. E. W. Rutter
is a candidate for tho Democratic nomi
nation for representative. Various rea
sons aro assigned for tho action taken,
some of which, if true, aro serious reflec
tions upon tho person or persons for
whom they are intended.
If, as a candidate also for the said
nomination, they refer to me, I take
prompt exception and make emphatic
denial of the truth of tho charges. For
Instanco, Dr. Rutter and any other per
son familiar with the privileges must
know that a candidate violates no rule
of honor or politics by not publishing
his candidacy in a newspaper. In
other words, that it is not incumbent
upon him unless he sees lit.
The doctor next states that at tho
outset he found himself confronted with
money, trickery and false accusation.
As a candidate I own it to tho public,
as well as to myself, to state that I havo
not, nor has any person for mo, given
or promised as much as one cent for
support in this contest. I have not nor
has any person for me, caused liquor or
beer to be put into any district to carry
a delegate. I have not, nor lias any
per.tou for me, witli my knowledge
or consent, resorted 111 even a single
instance to trickery or false accusation,
to secure a delegate or create sentiment
against an opponent.
If I havo taken an undue or un
warranted advantage of Dr. Rutt-r, I
ask that he name the occasion, per
sons and circumstances. I assume that
Dr. Rutter will not say that, during tho
three or more years of our acquaintance,
I havo treated him other than as a
gentleman, and if ho has information to
the contrary, it is his duty as an honor
ablu man to give tho author, that I may
havo an opportunity to meet and refute.
A manly man has always commanded
my highest admiration, be he friend or
foe, and if 1 cannot make this nomination
without degrading my manhood and
citizenship, Ido not want it. A citizen
who would likely be oT any service to
the people when elected will not stoop
to the methods of one who seeks tho
office simply for sake of tho office.
The people of this district have an
issue. For twenty-four years, since
reaching voting age, 1 have been a citi
zen of tho district. The people, I tako
it, know me thoroughly. If 1 am not a
lit and proper person for my fellow-
Democrats to nominate, it is their duty
to pay no attention to my personality,
but nominate some one more, fitting, nor
do I want, nor would 1 accept a nomina
tion on any other grounds.
The doctor further states that false
accusation was made against him in re
gard to new county, for the purpose
of defeating him. On this I have to say
that 1 was asked by some persons how
Dr. Rutter stood 011 new county. I
replied that 1 could not say what his
altitude was at present, but that during
the passage or the bill ids brother, Hon.
11. 11. Rutter, a member of tho house,
had told mo that 110 had received a let
ter from his brother asking him to vote
against it.
A month or so ago the doctor, in com
pany with Mr. Daniel Doyle, of Freeland,
called at my oilico, denied having written
such a Icttor, and produced a denial from
Hon. 11. 11. Rutter to the same effect.
But the doctor at thersaine time admitted
that ills brother-in-law, a Mr. O'Connor,
or Connor, of VVllkesbarro, had written
the letter in question, and that his name
(the doctor's) hud been confounded with
tho matter either through Hon. 11. 11.
Ruttor's mistake or mine.
1 acknowledged at once that it was
possible that 1 might have misunderstood
Hon. 11. 11. Ruttor's exact words. 1
there and then told the doctor (and Mr.
Doylo and he will no doubt admit It)
that if ids candidacy had suffered any
injury therefrom, ho had but to express
the wish and I would make immediate
reparation by a public statement of the
whole circumstance. I am therefore
naturally surprised and pained at tho
sentiments expressed.
It had also hotter bo mentioned hero
that upon tho occasion of the doctor's call
he stated that he had been offered
all tho money noedod to moot the ex
pense of tho campaign and that one
of tho objects of his visit was to ask mo
to withdraw and that he would defray
any expense I had incurred.
1 replied that upon request of my
neighbors I had consented to seek, for
the first time in my life, a nomination
and election; that 1 had not received
nor been offered financial aid from any
source; that, while I thanked him, I
couldn't think of entertaining his propo
sition; that, did I find it necessary to
withdraw, I would have no expense
which I could allow him to defray. I
finally told him that my canvass would
be cloan, that tho nomination would
oltlier come to mo fair and square or not
at all, but that in the event of his nomi
nation in tho same manner he was wel
come to call 011 1110 at any time for such
assistance as it was in my power to ven
dor. Matthew Doug.
