4 WILD MIN.

An unknown man, who is supposed
TO be insane, is living wild in Black
bird swamp near Salem Church,
short distance from Townsend. He
has been seen by several persons and
although he always runs at their APP
proach, the farmers in the vicinity are
afraid of him He very seldom comes
out in the day time, but he has been
surprised by farmers who happened to
be passing through the woods. Will
liam Busted, farmer, living near
Townsend, had good look at the man
few days ago. He was passing
through the woods when he heard IL
noise in some bushes. He had heard
stories about the wild man and
thinking he would get look at
him approached the thicket quietly.
Seated on II log he saw man about 6
feet tall, long black hair and whiskers.
His face and hands were almost black
with dirt. His clothes were badly
torn and one leg was bare to the knee.
The man was picking a chicken and
eating the raw flesh. Beside him lay
a club and several fowls. In attempt
ing to get a better look at the man a
stick broke under Busteed's feet.
This startled the wild man, and with
cry like that of wild animal, he
jumped to his feet and was soon out
out of sight. People living in this
vicinity complain about raids on their
truck patches and chicken houses.

tools of teaching to dwarf the minds OF
children. to lead them into improper
habits of thought and to conceal from
them facts which it is important to the
health of the nation should be widely
known. but even more important to
the prosperity of the trusts should be-
suppressed. "Plutocracy" may be
sneeringly described as the cant phrase
of the demagogue, but it expresses a
very vital aud u very menacing thing.
The interests of all monopolists, of all
trust beneficiaries, of all spoliators OF
the people, of all who attempt to curb
free speech or impede free investiga-
ton, are Identical. 1t is no wonder
that the trust in text books tries to de-
fend the trust in sugar, the trust in
oil, or the trust in transportation.
Let President Gates tell how it is done:
This company has rushed into the
field with cavalier book on sociology,
which they have been trying to intro
duce into higher schools and colleges
as text book. 1t appears at an epoch
in the history of industrial civilization
when the most significant feature there
of is the almost miraculous growth of
trusts and analogous combinations. It
appears in that one of the foremost
nations whose perpetuity is most en-
dangered by them. The subject of
trusts belongs in this department, So
GEOLOGY. How does the topic fareP In
this book OF nearly four hundred pages
just eleven lines, in three different
places, are given to the whole subject
of trusts. combinations and monopolies.
In each place they are defended and er-
cuSed.
Extortion by furnishing cheap books
at dear prices. The bribery and in
timidation OF school teachers and off,
cials. The denial to our children of
the right to study from text books
thoroughly up to date. And, finally,
the suppression in a book put forward
as guide to the study of society in its
various ramifications of facts having
the most vital bearing on the health of
the nation and the prosperity OF its
people! These are the counts in the
indictment of the Book. Trust Can
it afford to enter no plea in answerP--

The GIObe-DemOcrat wobbIes.

On October 10: 1896, the Glo5- Dem
ocrat said editorily:
If the condemnation of Bryan at the
polls turns out to be as sweeping and
emphatic as it ought to be and
as conservative people are beginning
to think it will be, business boom
like that which started with the re-
sumption of gold parments in 1879
will set in IMMEDIATELY AFTER
THE ELECTION.
That editorial, and many like it, was
printed before the election, while the
Globe-D Democrat was energetically help
ing the Republican leaders and organs
to bunko the voters into electing Nc
Kinley as the Advance Agent of Pros
perity. Now that the bunkoed voters
have been waiting yainly more than
six months for the promised prosperi-
ty, and are beginning to grow restive
and impatient. the Globe Democrat is
beginning to jeer at them for believing
the predictions or promises were made.
On May %, 1897, it said editorially:
What Republican leader or Republi-
can paper ever said good times would
come the day, the week or the month
after election? Such a prediction
would have been absurd. The sup
position that the four years of trade
stagnation would give place to a busi-
ness boom Immediately after the de-
feat of the revolutionist party and the
election of the conservative ticket was
so inherently ridiculous that nobody
made it out loud.
Convicted from its own files of hav-
ing itself made precisely these sab
surd" and ''riuiculous" predictions.
and of having made them ''out loud, "
the Globe Democrat hedges, and in its
issue of to-day MAY 27) declares edi-
torally that prosperity has come, that
1.-The signs of good times are multiply
ing" and that ''those who dispute
them are those to whom prosperity is
a political ext:nguishe."
The Globe-Democrat'S wobbling re-
minds US of the defense put in by the
young attorney whose client was ar
rested under the charge of having bor-
rowed a kettle and returned it cracked
His defense was, first, that the kettle
was cracked when he borrowed it;
second, that it was whole when he re-
turned it; third, that he never bor-
rowed the kettle at all.-St. LOuiS

but this ethereal manipulation had, in
each instance, traced a delicately pen
ciled line across the names of the Dem
ocratic candidates and left those of the
Republican candidates intact. The le-
gal investigation recalled Shakespeare S
comedy of The Midsummer Nights
Dream" in which that tricky sprite,
Puck, induces Queen Titania to forget
her royal husband, Oberon, and fall in
love with the clown, Bottom, with his
ass head on, for it disclosed that the
frisky spirit of air had made not only
Democrats scratch Democratic candi-
dates. but Democratic candidates and
Democratic blood relations indiscrim-
inately scratch one another.
The Democratic seconds plainly
charged fraud by mortal agency and
rpdely used the ugly word forgery"
In fighting parlance they claimed a
foul. The Republican seconds ''denied
the allegation and deied the allega-
tors" The referee allowed the claim
of foul and declared it ''a draw" leav-
ing things in '.statu quo," but exoner-
ated the county clerk and his deputy,
the only mortals who could have per-
formed the feat of legerdemain, if such
it were.
Such it could not have been, how
ever, as we have clearly demonstrated.
It was as plain a case of miracle as
ever has been recorded, and we here
bv call on Bob Ingersou and his entire
tribe of agnostics to retract their silly
declarations of unbelief in the spiritual

tv of the supernatural and the absurdi-
ty of the incomprehensible.

A Trust IN Learning.

The American Book Company, more
eolloquially and quite as accurately
known as the School Book Trust, has
long borne with the cool insoleuce
common to its kind widespread denun-
citation of its methods. Charges against
it have been rather general than speci-
fic hitherto, and have not often had
the support of a responsible author.
So long as the money poured in, the
members of the School Book Trust
showed as little modification at being
commonly described as the beneficiar-
les of extortion and bribery as, for ex-
ample, MIR. Rockefeller manifests when
reminded that his millions, consecrat-
ed to Cody service, are the fruit OF
corporate bribery, arson, swindling
and attempted murder.
Yet it would seem that even the
members of the School Book Trust
must feel themselves forced to take
cognizance of the definite and explicit
charges made in little pamphlet apt
ly entitled, "A Foe to American
Schools by President George A.
Gates, of Iowa College. Issued by a
responsible publishing house, written
by man of the highest intellectual
and social standing, this pamphlet is
an indictment of the trust to which ST.
lence is tantamount to confession. Ii
charges bribery, and supports the
charge by copies of checks alleged to
have been rendered as bribes, and in
terviews with school trustees whom
the trusts agents have sought, in one
way or another, to corrupt. 1t charges
intimidation of teachers and school
principals who opposed adoption of the
trusts books, and gives evidence in
substantiation of the charge. As a
trained professional educator, the au-
thor of the pamphlet declares that
many of the books forced on the school
children of the United States by the
corrupt methods of the trust are ''antl-
ouated" or ''disgraceful trash. " Books
that are referred to nowadays as a
laughing stock by intelligent teachers
are foisted upon whole States for a
series of years. The agents know
that the territory is completely in their
power. 1t is monopoly in its most obi
Gus form. "
OF the methods by which the trusts
forces its books on the schools, more
may be said hereafter. An even graz
YER evil is the apparent determination
OF the trust to use its monopoly OF the

The Bencn No Place for Tyrants.

In referring recently to the fine and
Imprisonment imposed on Mr.. Lewis
F. Post, the editor of paper in Cleye-
land, o., the New York Journal makes
and judges and all the costly machin-
cry of the law have their only sound
rationale in their necessity to the pro-
lection of the rights of individuals.
When such agencies, instead of pro-
tectors, become oppressors, il makes
evey right-minded man tingle with i'm
dignation."
Editor Post was fined 5000 and costs
and sent to the county Jail for con-
tempt of court. The alleged contempt
consisted of an editorial in his paper
criticising the action of Judge Lamson
for entering a judgment in too hasty
manner.
That judge is one whit more sa-
crosanct or less liable to be fallible
than any other public official is doc
trine new to the philosophy Of the
present age. In entering Office the re-
cipient becomes public servant, not a
master. He fairly invites criticism,
and that criticism should sharply keep
him to the straight path OF rectitude is
as essential to the public good as that
he, clothed in the ermine OF office,
should be the mouthpiece of the law in
furnishing violations of it. Contempt
of court has but one legal construction,
and outside the bounds of the court
room its jurisdiction ceases. Such ar
rogance of authority as that involved
in the right to punish criticism of a
judges actions has its only parallel in
the less majestic of tyrant-ridden lands.
Not many months since New York
magistrate expressed such view OF
judicial dignity, and threatened to en-
body it in action. The storm of ridi-
cule aud contempt which beat about
him quickly took sil the starch out OF
the theory and OF the man, and made
him hide his diminished head. Such
attempts to introduce Czarism into
court procedure would make one
laugh except for the foul and grievous
wrong inflicted. 1t is possible that
there may be no way of Furnishing such
modern embodiments OF the Judge JET
freys' spirit. But Judge Lamson's de-
sert for this Infamous usurpation should
be summary Impeachment and dismis-
al from Office. Short OF this, he should
be impeached by every honest man
and newspaper in the land as a tyrant
and imposter. The violation of the
rights OF the press is equally that OF
every private eitizen.-K. G. Times.
