JUSTICE NORTH AND SOUTH.

TO get rid of the reproach of taxing
people more than the government
needed, creating thereby an enormous
publican congress voted to refund to the
states the direct tax paid by their citi-
Zens during the war.
The state of Texas, Democratic. and,
therefore, deficient in honor or morals,
appointed board to ascertain and de-
termine who OF her citizens had paid the
tax, and directed it to be repaid to them,
their heirs, or others entitled to the
money. A board is now sitting to make
the awards.
The state of Minnesota received some
nintty-eight thousand dollars from the
national treasury, being the amount her
citizens had been assessed and had paid
thirty years ago. They paid it; the state
simply collected it. When it came it
was dumped into the revenue fund, and
went to swell the amount the legislature
could spend and squander.
Which of these two states, the one
Democratic and the other Republican;
the one unpretenti0us, the other oSten-
tatiouS in claims of honesty, is the hon
est one? Is it the one which pays the
money back to the men who paid it, or
the one that, without shadow OF right,
appropriates it all?
There is no difficulty in this state of
ascertaning who is entitled to the
money. The tax duplicates Of the years
in which it was assessed show the
amount levied on the property listed.
The men or their heirs are living. 1t is
their money, and not the state of Min
nesota's. Can she afford to be less hon
est than Texas?

Chill is now stirring up trouble with

M'BRIDE'S VICTORY.
He Is Awarded Possession of Ia
coma Hand Worth $5OO,OOO.

TACOMA, Wash, Jan. by a deci-
sion.of the general land Office, John G..
Mcbride gets possession of and title to
12O acres Of land in the city Of Tacoma,
which is valued at S50J,0)0. In 1899
twenty citizens of Tacoma filed on the
land in mineral claims of twenty acres
each. Mcbride bought these claims at
from 500 to $500 each, ana put $4,000
into Improvements, and then applied
for patents. This was refused. and,
after twenty-five days legal night IN the
local land office, the case was decided
against him. In February, 1892, he APP
pealed to the general land office. and the
decision was made public yesterday.
During the fight for possession, just
after Mcbride bought out the claims,
the county commissioners sunk a shaft
on the school section to search for gold,
erected high board fence around the
shaft, and stationed guards at the gates.
CARRYING Winchester rifles. They and
later mining experts also found gold
averaging 10 cents to the cubic yard.
These finds being the basis OF the land
office decision that the mineral claims
are bona fide ana valid. Mcbride claims
the land is worth S5,0O0,00O for mineral
purposes.

THE FESTIVE KANGAROO.


The kangaroo is a product not indig
enous to North American soil, but 1t
is proposed to remedy this oversight OF
nature. A movement has been set on
foot looking to the admission and nat
uralIZati0n of the kangaroo as a free
holder on our Western plains.
And why not? While immigration is
having its swing, why should the tes-
tive kangaroo be shut out? 1t isn't a
handsome beast, nor yet a graceful one.
but it has its points of superiority over
certain unWaShed and unc0mbed anar
chistic varieties of immigrants. 1t is
good, at least, for leather, and some
two-footed immigrants are too tough,
even for that. While we are letting in
Europes scum, why not let in Aus
tralia's pride and blessing? The kanga-
roo is not only good for leather, out it
is likewise good to eat, if you aren't
overparticular; and it is famous sport
to 90 kangaroo hunting.
The GLOBE seconds the motion in
favor of kangaroos. Let 'em in on the
ground floor and on the free list. BY
and by, when the thing is fairly under
way, we can slap on tariff to protect
our infant kangaroo industry.
And why not go farther? Why not
let in the whangdoodle, the baboon and
the jo-jo on the same terms? There is
lots of room in Uncle Sans back yard,
and the more the merrler.

PROGRESSIVE Republican,
ISM

There was goOG reason why the
Omaha platform contained no alluSion
to the tariff There was reason why
Mr.. DoNNELLY, during his recent etfer-
vescent campaign, belittled the tariff
question. There is reason why the Alli-
ance in the new declaration of principle
and purpose which it has set forth cuts
out its former tariff plank and is silent
on it.
The reason is that the Peoples party
is not opposed TO Republicanism, but is
progressing on the same lines with that
party. 1t is an advanced class in it.
They pronounce its paternalism good,
bat not spread out enough. They ap-
prove of protection to manufactures
but ask that it be extended to the farm-
erS and "industrialists." Legislation
for classes is all right if their class is
included. If the government can lend
money TO railroads. why not to them?
If it can buy miners product, why not
their produce? Ii it can make" money
and lend it TO banks, why not to them?
And so, when, with a singular incon-
Sistency, the Republican party refuses
to extend its blanket of paternaliSm to
cover the farmers, they propose to pull
it over themselves by their own efforts.
The Republicans having come to their
halting place, these neglected passengers
propose to continue their way Oh the
same road. They want the government
to print money and lend it to them.
They want the state to build elevators
to store their grain in. They want the
state to advance them money on the
grain stored. They demand that the
government build trunk lines Of rail
road. They want some men to be
compelled to accept less price for
what they have to sell, the use of their
money.
There is none Of these uses or abuses
of government which is not prof 5cti0n
on lines established by Republicans;
none which has not a logical precedent
in Republican enactments. There is
none which is not a justifable use Of
governmental powers il there be justi-
hcati0n for its precedent. Abuse, ridi-
cule, opposition even, to those projects
come with poor grace from Republicans.
1t is the case of a father reviiing his son
for doing a little more OF what the father
has been doing.
The Peoples party is here to stay
for a longer time than is allowed by
either of the two other parties. 1t will
draw the most heavily from the Repub-
licans. because its aims are akin. 1t will
draw from the Democrats those who are
such from heredity, environment, any
thing except intelligent appreciation of
what Democracy is; men with vague
ideas Of government, made more con-
fused by the long, uninterrupted,
hardly disputed misuse of power by the
Republicans. 1t will force realign-
ment of men on new lines. 1t portends
a renewal of the struggle as old as gov
ernment Of men by men, between those
who would transmute individual free
dom into governmental power and those
who would lessen collective power that
individual liberty may be the wider.

1t is settled that Senator CARLISLE
will 90 into President CLEvELAND'S
cabinet as secretary of the treasury. He
has, after deliberati0n, accepted the
tender OF the portfolio made by Mr.
CLEVELAND shortly after his election.
No man whom the president could
have chosen is better equipped. He
served on the ways and means commit
tee with MILLS and MORRISON. lie
was speaker Of the house during the
preparation and peDdency of the Nor
RIS0N and MILLS bills. He aided in
their compilation. He has acquainted
himself with all the details Of the rev
enue. He has been one of the ablest OF
the defenders of the Democratic posi-
ton. III the senate to him was assigned
the duty OF rendjng the arguments with
which Senator ALDRICH, chairman OF
the finance committee, supported the
MCKINLEY bill. 1t is said that it has
been the ambition of his later years to
place his name alongside that of ROB-
ERr j. WALKER as an author OF Il
revenue policy. He Will resign his seat
at the end OF this month to prepare for
his new duties.
This decision makes 1t possible for the
Democracy to begin the redemption of
its pledges at an early day. With his
experience, his ability, the assistance he
can command from WILSON, BRECKIN-
RIDGE, BYNUM, MORRISON and the
others, Secretary CARLISLE can have
ready a f-tor-revenue-only bill to
lay before the congress called to meet
in special session on the first day of May.
