Hanna posi,r as Universal Boss

Trust all to me: ! will rule you gent
ly." is the purport of Mark Hanna's
words to the Democ4ats. He assumes to
speak not only for Mckinley, who is
mortgaged to the Hanna syndicate, and
not only for the Republican party, on
which he foreclosed his mortgage a st.
Louis. but for the Fifty-fifth congress
of the United States. What sort of d man
is this Hanna, who takes 10 himself the
functions of the entire government and
declares a year ana u half in advance,
what action he shall permit to be taken
by the highest Legislative body in the
land? The American people have to
deal with a new manner of boss in this
latest product of the Republican party.
He is not only a party boss he sets him
self up to be the boss universal.-Boston

THE DANGERS OF COMBINES

The recent confessions Of President
Stickney of the Chicago and North
western railroad company confirm
everything that The Herald has so often
said about the inevitable results that
will come from present railroad prac-
tices uncurhed The whole west is
honeycombed with special rates in
freight. secret rebates. inside deals and
ring manipulation. This last phase has
taken up the Standard Oil plan in the
matter of wheat, corn, hogs. and. in fact,
all products. Combines in the railroad
favor are now more and more purchas-
ing these and making profit out of Sc
cret inside freight and terminal rebates.
The whole business is based on di-
honorable and most dangerous refusal

Osborne, Mrs. s. j. Tedford, Mrs. l.. w.
Owens. Mrs Clara ]. Long is the or
ganizer in San Francisco. The suffrag-
lists expect to raise on an average of
$40 in each of the $40 voting precincts of
this city. and from S. to $40 in every
other precinct in the state. They have
recently also extended an invitation to
male voters desiring information on the
suffrage question to call at headquarters
and become enlightened by women talk
ers. and by procuring literature freely
offered.
SO 1t looks as though the suffragists
mean business and are determined to
make asrong fight under the general
direction of Miss Anthony, whatever
may be the result. They claim that 200
newspapers in the state openly advo-
cate the amendment, while only thirty
oppose it, And so they are hopeful of
success HOYT

portant matters of progress, widely di-
vergent though they We're. Mr.. New
berrys enthusiastic estimate of the val

of the Japanese line of steamships from

Another "object lesson" has been in
stituted, this time by the man who heads
the list of the multi-millionaire to whom
Hanna has appealed for contributions to
the campaign. 1t is understood that Mr..
Hanna has advised them that they
should give on the basis of what they
would have been taxed for one year. if
the income tax had been sustained by
the supreme court. John d. Rockefel-
ler's wealth is figured at S125, 600 900; if
his capital returned 5 per cent income he
would be called on to pay $124.920, at
the ratio of a 2 per cent income tax.
But apparently Mr.. Rockefeller prefers
to pay his contribution to the corruption
fund directly, but in a more direct way
as regards the voting laboring man. The
Rockefeller iron mines in the Gogebic
range of Michigan have shut down
again, and the managers are candid
enough to explain that it ts on account

By every means in their power the
Republican campaign managers seem

DOUBLE.FACED REPUBLICANS

Our Pasadena contemporary. in reply
to the query whether its Pasadena Re
publicans stood for the Republican state
platform for free silver or FOR the nation
al Republican platform for gold talks
about something else. The paper evades
an answer. but between the lines we read
Wall street everywhere. 1t is a very EN-
bsrrassing situation in which the Cali
fornia Republicans find themselves.
Their state plank on the coinage ques-
ton was plain and courageous for sill
YER He took the same ground the DEM
ocrats occupied at Chicago. Finance IS
the fundamental question of this cam
paiSn. 1t is the true line of political
cleavage. ON this essential point of the
present political campaign the Repub!i-
cans of California deliberately and
unanimously adopted the same policy
and demands for the old ratio of 16 to l,
and free coinage of both metals, that
was afterward adopted at Chicago py
the Democrats. This situation destroys
any possibility of moral force in the To-
cal Republican campaign. Their fight
must now be made by money and against
morals Like the loyal partisan
Republican Pasadena Town Talk. Con-
gresham McLachlan is also embarrass-
ed. His conscience does not seem to cir
culate on a parity with the views of
his constituents. He was for silver
against his silent conscience last time,
and now he is against silver, not because
his conscience conquered, but because
the national platform of his party re-
pudiates it. The battle of the coins in
this gentleman seems to incline to the
forces having the heaviest sacks. He is
personally honest and wants to be good.
the trouble with him is that he is in
q position in which he is outclassed.
a man was arrested in Cleveland the
other day for discussing the silver ques-
| ton on the street. He was taken into
| custody after he had stopped the dis

! tated III Los Angeles. the whole city
would have to be converted into Jail.
| The Cleveland Recorder points out that

must not be blamed He merely trans
lated into action what the plutocratic
newspapers put into words. Since they
argue that anarchists are law-breakers,
and that a free silver man is an anarch-
ist, the policeman was perfectly logical
in concluding their argument by arrest
