prosecution relies, have been trans
ferred to the tender mercies of the syn
dictate, "by order of the court" To be
sure coupled to the order is the agree
ment that they shall not be taken out
of the jurisdiction of the court and are
to be open for the inspection of the
county attorney. ButevSrYbOdy knows
how these things 20 and VT are in
formed that the attorney for the syn
dictate say they would rather have the
possession Of the books than an ac-
quittal; for if their clients were acquit-
tod new actions could be commenced,
bat II they have the books there is no
evidence for any prosecutions. What
WAS the purpose of this order, placing
the books in the hands of the syndicate
any how?

SOMETHING of the full force of the
hatred of the British money changers
to anv kind of recognition Of silver is
just now beginning to be realized. This
showing of their hands IS the only re-
suit so far accomplished by the WolcOtt
commission which was promised in the
st. Louis republican platform. The
bankers, the clearing houses, the boards
Of trade and the financial reviews are
sending out a chorus of denunciatiOns
of the impudent Yankees that murmers
round the world. To our republican
contemporaries we wish to say, this is
one of the populist prOphesies that is
being fulfilled,

ANOTHER COLOSSAL srEAL.

Tue New York World has ut last
come to the assistance of our Senator
Harris in exposing the rOltenness Of
the deal for the sale of the Union Pa.
ci6c railroad begun by ClsaVeland the
unspeakable, and being cOnsumated by
Mckinley, the immaculate 1t Is one
Of tile colossal governmental robberiea
Of the age and s"rpasses even Cleve-
lands secret bond sale to his millionaire
friends. The World concerning itsays:
$50 the government has decided to
fOrecIOse its mortgage and sell the
rOad
Here comes IN a syndicate 1t pro-
poses that the Government shall give
up $50 600 600 or so of its just claims;
but that is not all that it proposes.
The evidence presented in The Worlds
new article leaves no rom for doubt
in any honest mind that there has been
collision between this syndicate and
government officers, collision intended
to give to this syndicate an advantage
worth scores of millions, every dollar
of which Is to be taken by fraud from
the people,
The sale is set for tue early days of
November. It's terms are such as to
exclude all actual competition. It is
stipulated that certain enormous cash
payments shall be made which no syn
dica could possibly arrange to make
in actual cash within the brief time
allowed, and which if made would
bring chaos to the money markets of
the country. This shuts out all real
competition at the sale and gives 500,
100000 to the syndicate as mere
bonus.
For this bargaining syndicate can
make the payments because it holds
practically all of the first mortgage OBJ
legations of the company, and under
the adroitly arranged terms of sale
these bonds are to be accepted as cash
This syndicate can therefore buy the
road for $2O,OOO,OO less than the gov,
eminent g claim, while nobody else can
buy 1t at all. The road is worth vastly
more than the governments claim, and
there are those, as The World will
presently show, who would gladly give
more. But in order to do so, under the
proposed terms of sale, they must raise
Sll5, OOO, 900 in cash within ABOUT thirty
days-s manifest and intended impos-
sibility.
In brief, by collision with govern.
ment officers this syndicate has ar
ranged to cheat the government out of
$40, 100000 and get the property for
greatly less than it IS worth"

ERoM RRowN on PRArT.

EDITOR GAZETTE:-lt is perhaps I'M
fortunate, especially for the railway
companies and their allies the republic
can politicians, that the question OF rail-
way charges and railway control will
not down in Kansas. One would have
supposed after the hue and cry they
raised last spring after the session Of
! the Legislature closed that they had
gained a great and grand victory Yea
more, decisive victory, with references
to that q estion; and one had IT, be Il
cOnnOisseur to distinguish which re-
jOiCed the more, there publican manag-
ers or the railway attorneys and cor
ruptiOniStS.
But the question has not dOwned, nor
will it until the people feel that they
have gained, at least a portion OF that
justice that has been so long due Them
Without entering into any detailed
or extended discussion of the merits of
the Harris bill or the house bill, suffice
it to say that the Harris OIL was de-
fusion and fraud, which was plainly
evidenced by the fact that it received
the united support of every republican
in the House and Sena,e with one tx
ceptiOn in the House, aud by the fur
ther fact that this measure was per-
fectlY satisfactory to the railway man
ayers and their chief lieutenants, the
msnIpulators of republican policies
The opposite fact, that every repnb-
lican representative, with one excep-
ton, was bitterly opposed TO the house
or maximum bill, and while the same
could be- said OF every railway man ager
and corporation worshiper is sufficient
proof that it was not gotten up in the
interests of the corporations.
A few comparisons Of the rates estab-
lished between the House hill and the
Harris bill along with the present rates
and the rates in force 10 Iowa may not
be out of place here. We will first make
a comparison of the two hundred mile
rates which very closely affect Reno
county.

make big political smudge out of the
fact that after the first of November
the State will not have funds to pay
cash on the warrants. The trouble Is
the various counties in these glorious
times of prosperity owe the State about
$4,000 in delinquent taxes. These
will not be paid till about the first of
the year In the meantime the banks
are glad enough to cash the warrants
for the seven per cent interest they draw.
Despite delinquent taxes and all, If
the last republican treasurer, Anterior,
had turned over to Treasurer Heffle.

turned over to AthertOn, S5S9,5O3 in
etead OF 900, 200, there would be no war.
rants drawing interest but there would
be $4,000 still in the treasury. When
Lhis is taken into account 1t IL hardly
surprising that the treasury is short.

THE Boston Cotton and Wool repor-
ter rejOiaes over the prospective ad-
vance in manufactured goods of these
articles of from % to so per cent. This
rejoicing is of course on account of ben.
eAts to the down trodden manufactur-
ers. 1t however cautions them not to
place their prices so high that the peo-
pie cannOs buy. The new tariff, it
seem to think, is high enough to pre-
vent foreign competition, even at prices
much higher than people are able to
pay. The protective theory of the re-
publican party seems to be built upon
the same lines as railroad tariffs. upon
the principle Of "sll the traffic will
bear" Rsh! rahl rahl for the tariff.

LAST year, republicans told US that
if populists won in this State their leg
islatiOn and wild work would advertise
to the world that we are regulators
and drive all capital out of the State.
Now the banks are full of money and
the other day when one of them was
solicited for an advertisement he re-
piled that he didn't know what to ad-
vertise for. unless it was money to loan.
This is one of the republican prophe-
sizes that didn't prove true, When the
republican orators come round we sug.
Rest that it will sound better if they do
not repeat their last year speeches.

We believe the present hog and cattle
rates ara little higher. All the rates
above given were in force during last
winter. From these comparisons it
will be noticed that while the maximum
bill or house bill reduces rates in very
decided way as compared with the pres
ent rates, it by no means brings them
down to the level of the Iowa rates.
Had the house bill pecOme a law It
would have saved to the farmers of
Kansas not less than 100000 in freight
on their wheat crop alone, while the
entire saving for the year would have
run up into the millions.
No man can point out one single tan
Rible reason why Kansas should not
have as low rates as Iowa. Her pro-
ductiye capacity is but little, If any,
greater than ours while the cost Of
maintaining her roads is decidedly
greater. The people of Kansas have q
right to be disappointed but they should
not be discouraged. Truth crushed
to earth will rise again." and while a
very few tricksters and traders have
succeeded in defeating the will of the
people, this defeat is only temporary,
and it is the honest judgment of your
humble servant, based upon close ac-
quaintance with the members Of the
present legislature that a railway law
clothing the commissioners with ample
powers to regulate freight charges etc.
can be passed any time the governor
might see fit to call them together.

a PEW weeks ago the GAZETTE said
that the prosecutions 10 the Bank of
Hutchinson cases would be dismissed
by virtue of an agreement made aud
entered into with the syndicate before
the settlement. While We did not pre-
tend TO speak with the authority of
direct and positive knowledge,
since then things have occurred which
lea9 still further TO those conclusions
The books of both the Bank of Hutch
inson and the old Valley State contain
ing all the evidence upon winch tue

Nevertheless that is just the kind of
a party you did belong to for four years
when Cleveland was in power, and it's
jusC the kind you will belong to again,
beginning with 1900. OF course you do
not like it when the other fellows taste
all the sweets of the pie.
