One OF the most Infamous ideas
which has gained credence among
the people is that the right exists
to bind unborn generations with a
bonded debt. The time will come
when such thought will not be
tolerated when every bond will be
wiped out of existence never un.
til then will we have free people.

Prefer Slavery.

Boston Herald published a spec
ial dispatch the day before the
Fourth, from Spring Valley, Ills,
which said: "Three hundred coal
miners have caused great excite
ment here by offering to go into
voluntary slavery if guaranteed, for
themselves and families, comfortable
houses, plenty fuel, food and service
able clothing. They represent the
best element among the miners, and
are willing to thus serve without a
cent of wages. They will sign an
iron-clad contract. They say that
it will prove that the present trouble,
which threatens a strike, is not OF
their own seeking. During the
last three years they say they have
often suffered for the necessities OF
life, and that rather than see their
families suffer- any more they will
become serfs." Here is state Of
affairs that ought to make honest
men think The Cleveland Citizen.

The BRIrrsH WONDER Ar 1.-THE
recent supreme court decision on
the income tax shows US 80 much
farther advanced in monarchial ways
than they expected that the British
themselves are astonished at the de-
cision. The London Times, the
leading paper of the empire, says :
"The practical result is that direct
taxation must fall on the citizen in
direct proportion to his voting
power, without reference to the
amount of his property" The
London Chronicle says: "The loss
of $1,000, 900 must still further de-
range American finance, but the
millionaires have escaped the net,
and the people generally will be
compelled to make up the deficit.
It is strange comment on Amer
lean democracy, and on the limita'
tions of the American Constitution.
When we can surprise the Brit
ish by our plutocratic ways, we
have gone considerable lengths
sure enough.-Progressive Farmer

There never has been and never
will be- greater question before
any people than the question OF hu'
man liberty. This country is rapid
ly drifting into condition OF slav-
tenfold worse than that of ante-bel'
lum days. The masses of the peo-
pie, including the great middle'class,
are deprived of the result of their
labor without their consent and this
is the essence of slavery Great
multitudes are reduced to the con.
dition where they must do the bid
ding of master or starve. This is
is slavery. And the proportion
who are in this condition is increas-
ing every day.-New Era.

KEN | MUST. HANG.
The Mandan Wife Murderer
Convicted OF the Crime a y
Second Time. Ed
JURY WAS OUT SEVEN HOURS.
Attorney Nye OF Minneapolis
Closed the Case for the
Prosecution.

. FARGO, n. p, Aug. AFTER being
out seven hours and 10 minutes the
jury in the Kent wife murder case re-
turned verdict Of guilty and fixed the
punishment as death. Attorney Hill
dreth at once stated his intention to
move for new trial. The jury went
out at 4 p. IN. and returned at 1910.
Frank Nye Of Minneapolis began his
arguments during the morning and con-
sumed all the time up to 8 o'clock in
the afternoon. His address is said by
many to be the best that he has ever
delivered, and it could not but help to
have lasting impression on the jury.
He brought out the motive clearly, and
in many ways completely destroyed
the defense. Judge McC onnelps charge
to the jury was good one for the de-
Tense, and yet it was fair and impair
tlal. The jury went out at 4 o'clock.
Crowds of people waited outside the
courthouse and intense excitement pre-
vailed until the verdict was returned.
This is the second trial of the case,
Kent having been convicted at Mandan
last fall. The supreme court granted
him new trial and a change OF venue
was taken to Fargo.

White Miners Prepared for the Threat

SPRING VALLEY, nls., Aug. 1.-THE
situation is very quiet in this city.
The negroes are making no efforts to
come back. The reports about armed
negroes coming from Peoria and Chi

no unusual excitement here. They
would not only have the Italian miners
to deal with but every white miner in
the city as well, numbering in the
neighborhood Of 1900. Word was
sent in from Ladd and Toluca promis-
ing the whites all the assistance neces-
sary in case Of an invasion Of blacks
from other towns. In case of an in
vasion 5000 white miners could be
mustered together in this city in less
than two hours. The whites of this
city do not apprehend any danger in
this direction. The do not express the
least sorrow over the event of Sunday
and invite fair and impartial investi-
cation. The report that a number of
negroes are lying dead in the ravines
is made of whole cloth. Not q single
negro has been killed.

selected, and there are so many
men in that city who are entitled

not able to alone supply all the

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-TWO colored
women, Mrs. Mary Stanton and Mrs
Lizzie Dixee, refugees from Spring
Valley, have arrived in this city, and
the reports they give out OF the treat
ment of the colored people at that
place have infamed the negroes Of
Chicago to the highest pitch. Mrs
Stanton is a widow and since the at
tack made by the Italians on the col
pred men at Spring Valley her two
sons have disappeared and she believes
that both were killed. Mrs. Dixee has,
heard nothing from her husband since.
that time and believes him dead. Both:
women say, in spite of statements to
the contrary from Spring Valley. that
the reports of the outrages have in no
way been exaggerated. They say that
the colored women and children We're
Assaulted and Brutally Beaten,
and that it is impossible for any col.
ored woman to walk the streets of the
town without being grossly insu!ted.
They declare that all the coloredi
women in Spring Valley have been
given a certain length of time to get
out of the town, threats Of bodily in-i
jury being made against those who re-
manned. +as
The mass meeting of colored men re-
convened during the evening in AR
lington hall at Thirty.first street and
Indiana avenue. The stories told by
the two women infamed them to the
highest pitch, and all manner of vio-s
lent threats were made against the
Italians at Spring Valley. For the
first time during the day the idea to
move on Spring Valley took defaite
shape and committees were appointed
to raise funds to secure arms. #
Alteeld's Position Don't Suit Them.
There was much excitement at the
afternoon mass meeting when tele.
gram was read from Governor Altgeld
saying that the officials Of Spring Val
ley had not asked for aid and il they,
did it would be promptly sent. This
did not suit the colored men at all.
They claimed that the governor knew.
the local authorities would not call on
him and tho excitement grew SO in
tense that the most warlike language.
was used. LIN
A delegation called on General Mer-1
rift to ask that the United States troops
be sent to Spring Valley. The general
told them that in the event of the fall
ure of the civil authorities to preserve
order and protect the colored people Of
Spring Valley the fact should be COM
municated to President Cleveland.
