special Interests.

Does protection favor special inter.
ests?' Is it merely a scheme to "tax"
the masses for the benefit Of the Favored
fewY Is it really robbery of tho
plain people" by the 'monopolist man
ufacturers" protected by our tariff?
If it is, then indeed is the faith of the
protectionist very poor one, nor ran
there be the least justification for such
system Of extortion.
But ask the importer, alien as he is in
his business and too often alien also i'll
citizenship-ask him, as he laughs in his
sleeve and pockets the enormous profits
reaped by stimulating foreign industries
and giving employment to foreign work
ingmen, whether protection or free trade
favors special interests"
Ask the capitalists and men with fixed
incomes, interested only in having things
"eheap, no matter who suffers, if free
trade favors no especial interests"
Ask the free raw material manufac-
turer, won over by selfish considerations
of individual advantage, whether pro-
lection really only helps especial inter-
ests."
Ask these men, and then admire and
commend the righteous indignation with
which they all oppose protection for no
other reason than because it favors "spe-
cial interests"
Protection is too broad, too liberal, too
national a system to favor any special
interest in the free trade sense of the
word. 1t protects American labor any
where and everywhere-on farm ard
field, in forest and mine, on ship and in
factory.
But if to stimulate American indus
try, give motive to American enterprise,
add to American wealth and advocate
American doctrines and support for our
own citizens against the world-if that
is fayoring special interests, then in
deed does protection do 50.
And we glory in it,-American Econo-

The Country's Condition.

The condition of the country today is
worse than it was just after the war.
1t is true at that time the devastation OF
the south was fearful, but it was not as
bad as it is today. All were in about
the same boat and there was common
sympathy between all classes, but not
so now The Iaboring people have been
crushed while the special few have been
favored by the unjust class legislation
Of this country.
The products of labor sold for fair
values and the people, we mean all the
people, prospered The circulating
medium was then equal or almost SO to
the business demands of the country.
But how is it today? Of the entire bust
ness Of this country 90 per cent. is done
on the credit system. on confidence.
Yet with this fact before the world men
have the audacity to tell you that it is a
want of confidence. Was ever argu-
ment more preposterous?
What the people need is for the gov
eminent to take it's hands off Of us and
then carry out its part Of the contract
and the people will prosper. Let the
government furnish the people with q
circulating medium sufficient to do all
the business Of the country upon cash
basis. then you will see people prosper.
This is the governments duty, and it
should put it within the reach Of every
citizen at the same rate Of tax who is
able to furnish good security. This is
what the country needs and what it
must have. 1t can only be gotten through
political revolution, for there is no hope
through either Of the organized parties.

Danger and Duty.

In their flight from their taskmasters
the people have about reached the Red
sea. We cannot retreat. Either the
foods will be parted for us and close as
of old upon our pursuers, or life and
death struggle will ensue between OPP
pressors and oppressed-between those
who would destroy and enslave and
those who are seeking to enter into the
inheritance prepared for them by
beneticent Father.
1t behooves every man who desires a
peaceful solution of our ever increasing
complications to do all in his power to
make, the deliverance peaceful and hu-
name.
To further postpone the controversy is
to unite class and challenge the arbitra-
ment of the sword. Our past experience
should be sufficient to warn us to steer
clear of this abyss Of peril and the hell
of war If this economic
revolution now in progress in the United
States is not speedily successful, the in
dustrial people will have no one to
blame but themselves Through suffer
ing and research they have learned the
causes Of their distress. They have or
ganized, decided upon remedies and
made known their demands. They have
the numbers TO make their wishes ef-
fective
The constitution and laws of the coun-
try place the whole matter within their
hands Nothing is now needed but a
proper use of the ballot If the friends
of reform will make one fearless and
united effort the victory will be won.-

THE MONEY QUESTION.
The Silver Committee Declares for Sill
yer Coequal with Gold.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 0. - Chairman
Warner and Secretary Lee Crandall
give out the following as the result Of
the past three days deliberations here
of the national executive silver COM
mittee and the position the committee
will take toward the silver legislation
during this congress-:
"1he national silver committee, in
session at Washington, declares that
continued experience demonstrates that
there can be no adequate or final solu-
ton of the money question but by en-
dowing silver with the money function
and making silver coins standard money,
coequal with gold for all money uses.
1.-The present policy of making sub
sidary money of silver, to be redeemed
in gold, and of piling continually higher
the fabric of credit and credit money on
a constantly diminished basis of gold, is
unsound and unsafe, and must come TO
an end. The enormous increase in bank
credits and other forms of credit cur
rency in recent years, relatively to the
volume Of gold in which they are ulti-
mately redeemable, is q standing men
ance to all business enterprises, for
under this system panics must recur
more certainly and more frequently, and
be more disastrous when they do oc-

derers of Sheriff Dunn to Justice.
I, Judge Botkin, 1t Is Threatened,
Will Be Assassinated If He En-.
deavors to Hold Court.
r ARKALoN, Kan, Jan. 9.-Two of the
ringleaders of the mob who murdered
Sheriff Dunn and attempted to assassi-
nate Judge Botlkin arrived here under
military escort. They are G. Anderson,
chairman Of the Seward county COM
missioners, and J. G. Leach, farmer
residing two miles north of Springfield
All of the prisoners so far are members
of the Farmers or Citizens Alliance.
The warrants for the murderers were Is,
sued by an Arkalon Justice, and, as they
have to be returned the prisoners are
brought here to await their preliminary
examinations, although the county jail
is located at Springfield.
Naturally the complaints would have
been made before che Justice of the
peace of Springfield, but he is accused
of being in sympathy with the con-
spirators, and if the men charged with
Dunn's murder should be brought be-
fore him he would release them regard
less of the evidence.
On the other hand, the Arkalon
Justice is expected to hold all who are
brought before him for trial In the dis
trict, while it is generally conceded that
under existing laws no conviction Of
murder can be had, no matter how cold
blooded, in this county. A justice can
hold an accused man for several months
or till it has been demonstrated at three
separate terms of court that jury can
not be empanelled.
The result is that all anti-Botliin men
are convinced that an arrest or warrant
issued by the Arkalon justice of the
peace means certain imprisonment for
an indefinite period.
Botkin is still absent from the district,
and il he should remain away the trou-
BILE would soon be over. The hatred of
the one faction appears to be all directed
against the judge, even going SO far as
to threaten him with assassination if he
attempts to hold court in either of the
five counties of Seward, Stevens, Nor
ton, Haskell and Grant.

ing an Apology.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-There is a
sudden Cessation of Chilean war rumors
of the other day, in fact cessation of
any kind of rumors. The impression
grows that the efforts of the British rep
resentatives in Santiago and of Sir
Julian Pauncefote in Washington, as
first intimated in these di spatches some
Gays ago, will be instrumental, were no
other pacific influences at work, in
bringing about an amicable understand
ing.
But there is as yet no disavowal by
Chile Of Signor Matthias curt and irrita-
ting note of several weeks ago, nor has
Senior Montt conveyed in an official form
any apology or explanation tending to
allay the irritation caused by the pre-
vious communications. These, however,
it is confidently expected, will follow
when the U0ited States shall have in
dicated its Views upon the answer of
Chile to its demands already made. This
answer has not yet been received at the
state department.
In the meantime no change has been
made in the policy of the navy depart
ment in the matter of putting every
thing in readiness for whatever may
come.
