The membership of the Nicaragua

number Of republicans and democrats,
and in the bill now before congress the
term security" guarantee" and "repsy-
ment" are often met by the gaze Of him
who reads that measure. These men
are New York capitalists, who went to
Chicago and Minneapolis to see that q
plank endorsing their scheme was se-
curely nailed in the platform Of each
craft when launched upon the political
sea Of 1892. It's q repetition Of the
Pacific railroad steal, both parties are
bound hand and foot against a squeal,
while members of congress, judges and
newspapers are being bought to support
the scheme, just as they were thirty
years ago. People who want to know
what the outcome win be il the credit Of
the nation is pledged, should read the
history Of the Pacific matter and keep q
close eye on the expose Of the most gi-
gantic and corrupt manipulation Of q
grand scheme ever insugurated now
being made in Paris in about the same
manner in which the Panama canal pro-
ject was driven into bankruptcy by the
press Of France and the United States,
aided by the Doodle wrung from the
honest yeomanry of the former country.

Another PlutoCrat for the Senate.
The gallant soldier, finished oratorand
representative American, General Bragg
has been defeated for United States SEN
ator from Wisconsin by John L. Mitch
ell, inheritor of dollars, and who, though
amember OF the present congress, has
no other record. 1t is not charged that
the Wisconsin legislature put up the sem
atorial dignity for sale as the pretorisn
guards used to sell the imperial dignities
Of decayiDg Rome, but it is asserted
that Mitchell's money was put in every
legislative district during the Legislative
campaign, and that the candidates who
were successful through it's use were
thus placed under obligations which de-
cided their votes in the senatorial con-
test. This was an importation OF the
Brice method from Ohio, as distinguished
from the Payne method Of direct buying
Of legislators votes. There may be more
OF the tinesse Of the fnsncisr in the
changed method. In it's result there is
no less disgrace.
"One more senatorial plutocrat
chosen" the Inter Ocean puts it, and
mourns that "Cresus 10 still on his
throne" to decide the elections where
wicked democrats have the majority Of
votes. But the people will call the roll
Of United States senators Of both parties
and decide that mea who owe their seats
to their immense wealth or to their faith
full services az corporation lackeys and
attorneys are as numerous in one party
as in the other.
It is pleasant to read that when the
contest in the Wisconsin legislature was
decided, the crowds iE the galleries and
lobbies cheered General Bragg and
hissed Mitchell. The people Of this re-
public can still be trusted to distinguish
right from wrong, and to approve Of hon
est and clean political methods. If the
upper house of congress does not be-
come an utter disgrace to our republic
it will be- because the method Of electing
senators is speedily changed. Friends Of
reform can find no better or more press
ing work at hand than pushing the pro-
posed constitutional amendment to this
effect. The Vanguard, February 4.
