firmly convinced of its wisdom and prac-
ticableness, and so resoiuts in seeing II
crystalized in law, arguments are need
less. They want none. They see their
way clearly before them and like an or
row to It's mark they are moving in solid
phalanx to the goal marked out for
them.
They have beon denounced and Yiliied
as wreckers Of property, ss fcommun-
ists'' bent on course of destruction
ruinatIon, spoliation and robbery
They have been held up to the scoru OF
mankind as anarchists and dark
lanternites, and represented as an
ignorant, stolid and brutal herd capable
of the most destructive fury, and re-
solved on wreaking vengeance on an
imaginary foe. Nothing has been too
vile and contemplate, no epithet too
coarse, brutal and sweeping for the OPP
position TO use in describing and malign-
ing them. And to what purpose?
What has been gained by this reckless
and indlscriminate abuse and vilification
of a sober, industrious and law abiding
class OF peoplep Not one thing in this
world, unless the contempt of the people
for their vilifiers be something. That
they have a contempt and hearty con-
tempt, too, for them, is eviuced by the
cool, calm and resolute manner In which
they express their political convictions
and make known their wishes.
Goldsmith IS estimate of so noble peas
antry, their conutry's pride,'' is not
shared by the gentlemen of the Combine,
who, or rather their organs, have adver-
tised the Texas peasantry or farmers to
the world as q contemplate and despised
class, so ignorant and besotted as to
know no better than SO many untutored
savages or gibberlng idiots what is good
for them. No matter. The people know
themselves; know how they have been
bled, fieeeed and plucked by the design
ing and rapacious, and are not in the
humor to take their cue from political
tricksters and paid agents or submit
tamely TO the bounding and scurrilous
abuse of those who find that they cant
wheedle, cozen and defraud them any
longer. The people are all right. They
are doing their duty toward themselves
in right vigorous manner. They have
done it. They have fought the battle
on the eve of q victory for which the
honor and renown are all their own. All
hail to them-"a noble peasantry, their
couutry's pride and the curse of the
crows on the Combinel

Northumberland, suffOcated,
Tortured.

LONDON, Aug. "A special corre-
spondent of daily newspaper succeeded
in obtaining admission to the Turkish
prison at Uskub, Ma cedonia, a town of
European Turkey. He found that the
building contained l49 cells which were
occupied by 1911 persons. or over twelve
to q cell. AS q rule the unfortunate
victims are sent there TO be confined
from one to ten years each, but so great
are their sufferings arising from the bar
barity of their keepers and the total dis
regard by the latter of all sanitary laws,
that one rarely outliyes five years.
In one cell two and one-half yards
square the correspondent discovered
nearly q score of wretches painting for
air and starving for food, having in the
way of the latter nothing but bread and
water. The greater number were stark
naked and chained to the ankles and
wrists. As IL the iailers were unable
TO inflict torture enough upon
their victims in the dens already
provided, the correspondent found q Sc
ries of underground cells said to be re-
served for the worst prisoners, where In
total darkness are placed those whom
Turkish tyranny has singled out for spe-
clal barbarity in order to force confess
sions where confessions would have
proved useful TO those in power. To OBJ
tain these confessions the aid of an ant
is called in. These insects are kept in
small boxes for the purpose and fifty of
them are placed at one time on the
naked body of the prisoner whom il is
desired to torture. It is also customary
to chain the men all day in the sun in
such a way that they are unable to
move.

Il CONFUSION rs NECESSARY.

4 COMMISSION rs NECESSARY.
The battle for railroad commission in
Texas is battle for railroad competition
and against railroad monopoly. The
Texas pool deprived The state of the ben
eits of competition, and men fought the
pool and drove 1t out of existence who
were averse TO the heroic remedy OF a
con mission. But when the six railroad
inlets into Texas became consolidated
into two only, with n possibility that
these two might become one only, 1t was
obvious that there would be only such
rates as monopoly chose to make and
only such building "a monopoly chose to
permit. In such emergency a railroad
commission is the only protection of the
people and the only guarantee of more
railroad construction. This Is why men
who opposed q commission now favor it
and this is why consistency in such OPP
position is the virtue of those who cannot
see in changed conditions the need of
changed remedies.

PROTECTION, NOT INJURY.

We are glad to find the following sensi-
BILE and pertinent remarks concerning
the commission in the Austin Statesman.
Certainly, as our contemporary says, no
commissioner wants to injure the rail-
roads or in any way discourage their ex-
tension. No one but q fool or a knave
affects to believe otherwise, or will say
that any sane friend of the commission
idea contemplates any other result than
q beneficial one. The Statesman says:
All that the people of Texas desire in author
izing commits sion is to protect themselves, not
to injure others. All they want is exact justice
TO themselves and the corporations. They do
not believe they are now being fairly treated by
the present system which takes the money out
of Texas to build up Northern marts. They
want this rectifed as matter OF plain, fair
dealing. The commits sion is to that both
the people and the railroads receive fair play.
Who then in the broad state OF Texas can OBJ
iect? The people will not can the roads? How
can they when we honestly believe a com
mission will. by reduction of freights. work to
their own benefit by increasing the volume of
business transacted over their lines, just
the case when the passenger tariff was reduced
to three cents.

DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WANT.
1.-THE Peoples party" composed of
900 delegates representing every county
in the state of Nebraska, has just held a
convention and put forth ticket and a
platform. The only very marked feature
of the latter-for all these independent
pronunciamentos are very much alike--is
the declaration that "the political ma
chinery in this state has been controlled
by corporate powers for the plundering
of the people and the enrichment of
itself. - In other words the state is
governed by corrupt rings and plumber
ing combines, all of course of the Re-
publican persuasion, and kept in power
by these self-same people who now de-
nounce them in public. That this in
diGnant Peoples party convention is
still Republican, and still welded to its
idols, is evident from the fact that it de-
mRnds ''liberal service pensions for the
surviving soldiers of the late war" as
though Republican congress had not
already done as much in that direction
as safety to itself would permit. Not
word is said about the tariff, good or
bad. Pensions and more money il the
burden Of their cry. In week from
now nine-tenths of them would vote for
the most ultra and measly Republican
ticket. What hope for good Is there in
such chicken hearted and whimpering
billiards? II they can't do any better
than that they would better remain in
side the party traces, and retain at least
the merit of consistency.
