ENGLAND HAS ANOTHER ROW
Trouble Arises Over a Concession for Build
ing a Railroad,
RIOTERS BROKE IN ON THE ARBITRAToRS
Rcpnrntion Demanded of Colombia
for nn Alleged Insult TO the
Resident Consul over u
Disputed Concession.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.--Thcre has been
much friction Of late between Great Britain
and the South American republic Of Culom-
bia, which it is thought may lead to radi-
cal steps by the British. The Colombian
government gave a concession to an English
syndicate to build a railway through the
state of Antigua. tapping the richest sec
lions CT Colombia. The company did not
proceed with the work and the government
declared the concession forfeited. The COM
pany then presented claims for $64O, 900
damages. Colombia refused to pay. but con-
sented to arbitrate the claims. Out Of this
arbitration has grown the present faction.
DR.. Luhrsen, the German minister to
Colombia, acted as one Of the arbitrators.
but as the Colombian press and public be-
lieved him to be favorable to the English
claim, riotous scenes attended the meeting of
the arbitrators. Colombian soldiers were
stationed at the German minister's house
and it is claimed they assisted the excited
populace in indignities on the minister's
household, which, however, were not serious,
being confined to noise, threats and alleged
drunken disorder.
AS a result of concerted action in London
and Berlin the British minister at Bogota.
DIR. Jenner, and the German minister re-
ceiVed joint instructions to protest to Prcsl-
dent Caro- of Colombia. This was done and
the Colombian government consented that a
public explanation should be made in the
Diario Official.
But this explanation signed by the min
lister OF foreign affairs is said to have been
as offensive as the preceding events. No
settlements were made on the arbitration
and now urgent efforts are being brought to
bear on the British foreign office to admins
ter a rebuke to Colombia which will serve as
u reminder that British investments in that
country must receive full protection. Those
efforts come from interested capitalists and

THE Topeka Capital of recent date reprinted
an item from redeemer sheet out west, i'll
which Cleveland and his secretary of state are
roundy scored for not not "lickin' the stuffin'
out" of Spain and taking Cuba under the pro-
tecting wing of the American eagle. The
editor of the redeemer sheet also remaks that if
BENJAMIN Harrison was commander of the great
ship of state, he'd show Spain what's what, or
words to that effect And this reminds us of
little difficulty we had with Chill a sort time
ago, when Harrison was trying to fill the presi-
dental chair True, Ben did considerable
blowing for while, but that was all. He was
no more anxious for fight than is Cleveland,
to-day. The redeemers are talking war i'll or
der to take the minds of the people away from
the real live issues of the times.

APEACE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC.

There's voice across the nation like mighty
ocean hail,
Borne up from out the southwark as the seas
before the gale;
It's breath is in the streaming flag and in the
flying sail
AS we go sailing OH.
'1'is voice that we remenber-ere its sum-
mons soothed as now
When it rang i'll battle challenge and we
answered vow with vow
With roar of gun and hiss of sword and crash
of PROV
AS we went sailing on.
Our hope sank, even as we saw the sun sink
faint and far
The ship Of state went cropping through the
binding smoke of war
Through blacklist midnight lurching, all I'M
cheered of moon or star,
Yet sailing sailing on.
As one who spake the dead awake, with life
blood leaping warm,
Who walked the troubled waters, all unscathed
in mortal form--
We felt our pilots presence, with his hand
upon the storm,
AS we went sailing on
O voice of passion, luled to peace, this dawn-
ing of to-day
O voices twain now blent as one, we sing all
fears away
Since foe and foe are friends, and 10, the Lord
as glad as they
He sends lis sailing on.

A. A. STEwAT, superintendent of the deaf
and-dumb institute at Olathe, has been ousted
to make room for a Republican from Chicago.
Mr. Stewart filled the position satisfactorily to
all except few hungry redeemers and Repub-
lican blatherskites to whom party success is of
greater moment than the welfare of the state or
nation. Chief among these kickers against
Superintendent Stewart is Jim Craig, formerly
of Garnett, who is chronic ofice-seeker aud
pIace-hunter. He was steward of the asylum
for several years under Republican administra-
ton, and he wants the job again. The whole
gang will walk the plank in 1897.

A NATIONAL SIN.

We have been gathering wave of sentiment
that now stands off shore a mile high and as
wide as the horizon. Why doesn't it come
over and sweep the saloon from the face of the
earth?
"Party politics, is the answer. What keeps
the lightning SHAFT of science away from the
saloon? Party politics
We are not dealing with ignorance, but
with the apathy of guilt. Men know their
duty and do it not. The laymen i'll the pews,
the preachers in the pulpit, know their duty,
and yet each autumn has witnessed, i'll those
great eastern states, where the great republic
was born, another low and shameful surrender
to the dictates of the saloon on their legalized
throne.
That is the reason the women stirred.
You say sometimes we are obstinate Are we
more so than the foe we fight?
You say we are radical. Are we more SO
than the truth? God says no drunkard shall
inherit eternal life. Suppose should name
ten men, and voice out of heaven say, "These
men have forfeited eternal life for all eternity
If that should happen our faces would go down
i'll horror; and yet | am talking TO men who
pray i'll the prayer-meetings, who sit Ill the
churches, and who went to the ballot-boX and
and voted once more for the institution that puts
men in that position. God says in His book,
''Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink,
that putteth the bottle to him and maketh him
drunk also" And yet, have said toyou that the
right to sell is a conferred right on preferred
class. Who confers the right? Every one
who votes for the license system.
: That is our sin, my friends. Suppose these
streets are full of staggering drunkards. Sup
pose we have thee hundred thousand men in
the liquor traffic, and the vice-president of the
United States is one of them That isn't the
worst thing in this country.
What is the worst thing? The setting up of
throne of iniquity by law, that takes issue
with the throne OF God Almighty That is our
national sin. 1t is not drunkenness. Drunkard-
making is an Individual sin, and God will take
care of him. But nations are punished in their
lifetime, and the sin of this civilization to-day
is in creating throne of iniquity by law, and
saving to this infamous business, "You shall
exist and exist by law"

DICK BLUE made one of his gold-bug har-
rangues at Paola, Monday night, i'll which he
denounced Debs and the Pullman strikers, con-
demned Altgcld, Pennoyer, Waite, Lewelling
and Stone, and spoke in the highest terms Of
Cleveland and Olney. He criticised ingalls,
and Plumb for not denouncing the "silver
craze" in the senate. He said it would be nee
es3ary for the Republicans and Democrats to
stand together to crush out the anarchstic and
socialistc views of the Populists. He declared
that this country would soon witness another
bloody struggle and defended Eugene Wares
war views. If Dick Blue had made such
speeches during last falls campaign as he is
now making he would not have been elected
to congress.

In 1860, when the slave capitalists were out
voted, they went into rebellion and fired on the
flag. Such is the record. If there should
ever be another rebellion in this country, it will
probably come about the same way.-Topeka
Co-Operator.
Exactly! When this country is again bathed
in blood, it will be through the helish perhdy
of such tratorous creatures as Eugene Ware, act
ing under orders from the money power. They
will hire Hessians to shoot down the unen-
ployed who are striving to SO change conditions
that they may be able to secure homes, food
and clothing for their families The rebels
will bring on the war Off we have war;, as in
times past, and again the leaders of the rebel
lion will be capitalists; and when that time
comes, these same capitalists will gather in
their bags of ill-gotten gold and sneak off to
some safe hiding place, followed by their lack
eys, of the Ware stripe. These fellows will
not fight to ''save the nation" They are set
of NANCY towards.

A FEW days ago, the daily papers said Bob
Kincaid, one of the Linn county bank-wreck-
ers, was after Dick Blue, another member Of
the bank-wrecling gang, and that Dick was
likely to run up against a circumstance when
he went to take his seat in congress. Word
now reaches us that Kincaid, who has been
langushing Gin durance vile" on account of
his misdeeds, has been acquitted. That settles
it. Nothing more will be heard of Kincad's
grievance against Blue.

WE heartily endorse the following, from the
Daily Co-Operator, of Topeka: every Popu-
ulist paper in the United States should demand
the resignation of Taubeneck. He does not
comprehend the reform movement which dis
qualities him for chairman of the Peoples party.
Taubeneck misrepresents the Peoples party.
He was for Gresham al Omaha and has been
for some one outside the party ever since. He
only has one idea, and that is to elevate Tau
beneck."
