Truth thinks it "odd that Emin Bey

Of the general public, He was man
who stood head aud shoulder, above
many of the men who have won uudy-
ing renown IA Africa, IN courage,
executive ability aud genius for or
ganization aud Government, His
physique was by no means robust he
had the stoop of student, and the ira.

physician, Yet he was i'll reality mau
Of heroic courage and unquestionable
force OF character. He did not start
across the continent of Africa with
brass horns, reporters, and hired mer-
cenaries, but recruited his soldiers
from the sayages themselves, He
taught the barbarinns to build mills
and factories, aud held the Arabs at
bay, even when so great soldier as
Gordon failed. Ii seems to me in
credible that this marvellous pioneer
should have been killed, but the ev.-
dence seems overwhelming He had

The impudent claim OF the Anaconda

tempts to bolster up the Mckinley tar
if calls forth this challenge from the
Great Falls Tribune:
"As to the impressions o. the Stand

visit in our midst bearing upon the
position of the people of this section rel
alive to the wool question, we deny the
right to quote two or three persons as
representing democratic sentiment upon
this or any other point"
And the Tribune further moralizes-
"From the equivocal attitude the An

to the democratic administration and
the Wilson tariff bill we arc mucl in

HE COMBINE OF Class INTERESTS.

HE COMBINE OF CLASS INTERESTS.
The majority of the Montana WOOL
growers want protection on wool, says
the Anaconda Standard, and therefore
they should have it; majority of the
tobacco growers of Connecticut want a
duty of two dollars a pound on Sumatra
tobacco, and, being a majority, of course
they should have it, according to the
Standards theory; a majority Of the pig
iron producers Of Pennsylvania want
more protection onsiron, and the Stand
ard, of course, is with them; majority
of the coal producers in Ohio want pro-
teotion on coal, and that, according to
the Standard, is sufficient reason why
the duty should be maintained; ma
)ority of the lumbermen of Michigan
want big duty on lumber, and wanting
It should be equivalent to getting it, ac-
cording to this new Anaconda doctrine.
That is what governments are for--to
legislate in the interests of any class
whenever majority of that class de-
mands it. ,a..s.
The M.1l.nley bill illustrates the
beauties Of that sort of doctrine. 1t
represents a combination of all the
class interests in the country, who have
joined forces to impose taxes upon the
American people, not for the support Of
the government, but for the benefit of
their own pockets. They are great fel-
lows for the rule Of majorities, these
people in the protected interests. The
only majority they are against is the
majority of the American consumers
whom they are pluoking for their own
profit.
We are glad the Anaconda Standard
is making this policy Of greed and self
ishness so apparent to the people of
this state. It is much bolder than the
other republican organs. 1t says un-
blushingly, "Let US find out what the
people in these protected industries want
and then give it to them." THE INDE-
PENDENT will be equally frank. It will
not stand on that platform. 1t is not
the organ Of any protected industry or
GLASS; 1t is for the whole body of peo-
pie. Its platform may be stated in
sentence: "Havlng found out what the
great majority of American taxpayers
and consumers want, let US give it to

CHICAGO, with characteristic spirit,

at the same time doing excellent sani-

Is an excellent one. 1t prevents the

Rars and tramps out Of mon who have
been accustomed and willing to work,
but who, If they once found that they
could live comfortably without work,
might acquire the perncious habit of
refraining from work entirely. 1t also
furnishes opportunity for good men out
OF work and money to earn living,
which most of them are anxious to do;
men averse to accepting public charity,
only asking to be allowed to work. An
other consideration not to be forgotten
is the fact that it will be great benefit
to the municipality in the marked i'm

DEATH OF EX-GOVERNOR BISHOP.

Ex-Governor Bishop, of Ohio, died on
the morning Of March End at Jackson
vile, Florida. He was elected Govern
or of Ohio, as a Democrat, in the Octo-
ber election of 1877, and served one
term. He was eighty years old,
November 11th, 1892. Governor Bi,hop
lived decade over the seventy yearb
allotted to man, and his whole life was
devoted to active business pursuits,
public and private charities, and to
furtberiDg the interest of his church
(the DiSciple) of which he was, for
almost so years, leading member.
Governor Bishop was man of splen-
did character and high social attributes.
He was kindly, generous and honest
without guile.
His remains will be taken to Cincin-
natl for burial.
Governor Mckinley has issued q
proclamation, recommending that
memorial services be held in all the
churches of the state.

A PLEA FOR GOOD ROADS.

EDITOR News DEMOCRAT: The ten
dency in cities to luxury in suburban
bOulevards, eXtravagsnt parks, eXpen-
sive schemes to make valuable the sub
urban lands of synUicates, when we
take into consideration the wretched
neglect given to rural roads and the
general depression of our farming
communities for want of easy and good
means of reaching our commercial CEN
teTs, is, to say the least, out of harmony
with sound political economy and
progressive civilization. Wait, with
these useless luXuries in the city, until
the country can catch up.With their own
prosperity, contentment and develop
ment, what parody on our age and
civilization, that you must find all con-
tentment and prosperity in the city and
none among the great producing classes
of the rural districts surrounding the
city. II is illustrated by the fact, that
one can pass the boundaries of this one
sided and Wasteful development of our
cities to the misery of the struggling
masses, by driving from the beautiful
pavement of a modern city and get
stuck in the mud one mile beyond the
city boundaries. Stop then the waste
fulness in cities until they aid the
country to necessary good roads, upon
which both city and country must
depend for prosperity and comfort,
With this end in view Mr.. Holcomb of
Scioto has introduced bill allowing
townships, cities and villages TO issue
joint bonds for good roads. The Nc
Adam and other material is to be made
in the penitentiaries OF the State.

THE district court has reversed the
Common Pleas, in the celebrated Green
town case OF Daniel Myers VS.. Lew Z
Wise. For merely publishing the peh-
ton in this case the DEMOCRAT PUB
LIsHING Co. was sued for libel by Wise
for $4,000 damages, and we have
already been subjected to large expense.
MIR. Wise claimed ne was damaged to
the amount of $4,000 by the mere
publication of the petition, without
comment. Ifso, how much more is he
damaged by the decision of the District
Court? However, We believe there is
no Law of libel that will hold against a
Court. This Is fortunate for the judges.
