Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Japanese
legation to-day received another telegram
from Matsu, the minister of foreign af-
fairs, regarding the reported atrocities by
the Japanese soldiers at the fall of Port
Arthur. This dispatch says that the gov
ernment is not yet in possession of the
full facts, but has ascertained the follow
ing circumstances:
Many Chinese soldiers, both at Port
Arthur and those who came in from out
lying Notifications, taken by the Japan
csc soldiers, discarded uniforms and it is
now known that nearly all the Chinese in
plain clothes killed were

The Chinese inhabitants of PortArthur,
presumably the majority, left before the
engagement, though few remained, hay-
ing been armed and ordered to resist
the Japanese aud to fire upon them. This
they did and in the confusion of the fight
it was impossible to distinguish them
from the Chinese soldiers. The Japanese
army upon entering Port Arthur were
greatly excited by the sight of the fear

some of whom had been burned alive and
some crucified Notwithstanding this,
the discipline of the army was main

were taken and kindly treated. Those of

SOCIALISM AND PROTECTION.

Socialism would seem to be making
some Roadway in public favor. It has
often been COMPOUNDED with nihilism
and anarchism; but it is neither. 1t is
the theory that the state should own
and control everything 1t is the very
opposite of the theory of individualism.
the theory that the state is created by
and for the people. Socialism assumes
that no one can look after his business
and personal interests so we'll as state
functionaries over whom he has little or
no influence and no control. This is
not so bad a theory if there were
had all the wisdom and virtues of
angels and none of the failings of men.
If such body of men anywhere exists
they are not available.
Socialism is paternalism complete;
protection is paternalism incomplete.
The one would make the whole com
munity its wards and look after the
welfare Of all; the other divides the
community and looks after the inter
ests of some but at the expense of the
others. Protection is socialism modified
by favoritism. Socialism holds that the
individual cannot be trusted to manage
his affairs and would manage them for
him. Protection, not so frank and hon
est, thinks possibly he may be able to
manage his own affairs, but, still dubi-
Gus, gives him the taxing power of the
state, the greatest and most far-reach-
ing power possessed by the state, the
power to destroy, that he may make
certain that he will not fail. When
considered in the abstract, what could
be more unfair, more calculated to make
one part of the community the prey of
the other? Under this pernicious sys-
tenn of protection no pretense is made
that the levying Of high taxes on i'm
ported goods is for the government; it
is all to protect some infant industry"
that has sucked so long on the life
blood Of the nation and has grown so
great that its shadow reaches far and
wide and shuts out the sunshine of
prosperity wherever it falls. 1t would
really be more equitable and lust TO
take the all of each than to take the all
of some, and this latter is what protec-
ton does. Protection is partial social
Ism and logically carried out would be
paternalism perfected. If there is dan
ger in socialism, then there is danger
in protection, for it is a halfway house
on the road that leads to the other

/ this city, in which Prof. Ely was also
an abettor and counsellor He also de-
manded of the proprietors that their
Office should be made a union Office,
threatening to take his printing away
if they did not comply. CThey We're
publishing paper for him as secre-
tary of some organization or associa-
tom Upon the refusal of his repeated
demands, Prof. Ely withdrew his print
ing, informing them that he had al
ways been in the habit of dealing with
union offices. In conversation with one
of the proprietors he asserted that
where a skilled workman was needed,
dirty, dissipated unmarried, unre-
liable, and unskilled tramp, if a union
man. should be employed in preference
to an industrious. skillful, trustworthy
nOn-union man who is the head of a
family. He also stated that the latter
would have no ground of complaint, as
he could easily remove the objection
to him by joining the union, and that
conscientious scruples against joining
the union would prove him to be a
crank.
Such are the charges against Ely
that are to be investigated, and that
bid fair to make a Briggs case in
economic circles. If the charges shall
be found true, they will prove that
Ely is really demagogue pandering
to prejudice for the sake of popularity;
his notoriety is insured. Really Ely's
anxiety to give a practical lesson in
his pet doctrines and to force his
printers to his way of thinking. was
worthy of Squeers and the methods of
instruction so much in favor at Dothe-
boys Hall. In universities it is ex-
pected that the professors shall in all
respects set examples that shall be
worthy of being followed by the stu
dents. And what an example it was
for the director of the School of
Economics of the University of Wis
lconsin to be entertaining walking
delegate from Kansas City. A sense of
propriety would have forbidden any
such thing. To hobnob with hobo is
not the way to win the admiration of
college students. It is high time the
board of regents of the Wisconsin uni
versity was appointing a committee to
investigate the teachings of Prof. Ely.

THE GOLD RESERVE.

The gold reserve in the treasury con-
! tinues to grow less. The balance on
Saturday was $52,S20,56O The New
York banks will not come to the aid
! of the government, and those who
want gold for export draw it from the
sub-treasury. The banks are boarding
their gold and Wall street and the
gold press are beginning to cry out
for another bank issue. This would
furnish the best of investments for
those who have idle money in the
banks. but it would only relieve the
situation temporarily.
How soon would it take the govern
ment to exhaust its borrowing power
This is not an inexhaustible thing. If
there is no gold going into the treasury
where is the government to get its
money of redemption Of which the
anti-silver men pirate so glibly, from
As the bankers and merchants of New
York and the East demand gold all
the time. why would it not be well to
make ali custom dues payable in
money Of that metal? What is sauce
for the goose is sauce for the gander.
The thing has been done before and
could readily be done again.
The final disposition of the tariff bill
by Congress will cause a revival of
business and bring relief to the treas
ury. But when this business revival
comes the country will be unable to
get the greatest benefit from it be-
cause of restricted currency. That
there is not enough gold in the country
to do the business is evidenced by the
low condition of the gold reserve. The
solution of the problem is to be found
in the free coinage of silver. This is
demanded by a large part of the peo-
pie, and dividing the people into the
masses and the classes, it may fairly
be said to be demanded by all the peo-
pie.
Money being a measure of value, it's
volume. if the economic laws govern
ing it were allowed full play, should
be eo-extensive with the amount of
work required of it, that is, the
amount of business to be done. If the
volume is reduced below the demands
of business, then business must suffer,
with the natural consequence that in
stead of growing it will diminish. The
case may be illustrated by comparison
with railroad. When it's business has
grown so great that the full capacity
of its rolling stock has been reached,
it must either get more rolling stock
or be content to have it's business re-
main at standstill and thus retard
the development of the country tribu-
tary to it.
With free coinage of silver the cry of
no money would cease, and gold, re-
towering its courage, would be glad to
come out to seek investment. If this
were done how the West would grow
Then we would see such development
of Utah's unparalleled resources that
the representatives in Congress of the
new state would represent one of the
greatest states in the Union.

PROF. ELY's CASE.

The case of Prof. Ely, professor of
political economy at the University of
Wisconsin. is attracting more or less
attention. AT a meeting of the state
board of regents of the University of
Wisconsin. held July 81, President
Bartlett created some surprise bv
stating that "a member of this board
has published a communication to the
effect that Professor Ely's teachings in
the university are socialistic in their
character. Utopian, and pernicious doc
trine, and thereby furnish a seeming
moral justification of the attack upon
life and property such as the country
has lately Witnessed" President Bart
lett said he deemed it his duty to call
the boards attention to the matter,
and if there were no objection would
appoint a committee to carefully in
vestigate the charges, and accordingly
committee of three was appointed.
The charges against Prof. Ely were
made by Oliver e. Wells, state super
intendent of schools for Wisconsin, in
a communication dated July 5, 1894,
and addressed to the New York Ma
ton and published in that paper July
