A Syndicate to Purchase KIondike
Claims

Late advices from London confirm ru-
mors that have heretofore reached this
side of the Atlantic that a financially
powerful syndicate is in process of forma- :
ton in England, France and Germany to
buy all the paying claims of miners in
the Klondike region. Of course this will
lead to a vast amount of speculative VAL
uation, but there is a claim in the Klon-
dixie, as elsewhere, which it is impossi-
BILE to underestimate, and that is the
claim of HoStetters Stomach Bitters to
the foremost place among American rem
edies for liver complaint. The bilious
and constipated derive prompt relief

eyeballs, fur upon the tongue and un-

ailments. kidney trouble. lack of stam-
ina, dyspepsia and nervousness. Like

lished themselves in popular favor. ii

THE sFN,TEANp THE TRUST.

In discussing the sugar scandals the
American remarks that when we see a
great trust thus favored, a trust that
has been eXacting an enormous tribute
from the American people under the
shelter Of tariff duties, when We see a
trust that has Wanted its ability 20
compete on a plane of equality with the
refcers of the world, to make and sell
sugar as cheaply as it can be made and
sold. asking and being granted protec-
ton against foreign competition Of say,
one-quarter of a cent pound when the
imposition of such duty will enable the
trust to raise the price of sugar TO the
American consumer one-quarter Of a
cent above the price at which it could
prcftably make and sell sugar. and thus
levy tribute on the American people
of one-duarter cent a pound on the
1000 0000 600 pounds Of sugar consum-
ed annually. or a tribute Of S10,G00,OOO,
men naturally stop and ask: What did
the Sugar Trust do in return for such
favor? Under what obligation to the
trust are the trainers of the tariff bill
who granted this favor? What favor
has the trust done to Senators or the
Republican party to be given this favor
in return?"
While these queries remain unan-
swered the people will continue to ask
themselves if the Republican party Is
indebted TO the Sugar Trust for cam
paign contributions. or if the trust Is
simply bribing Senators individually?
There is a strong basis for these sus-
picions and the Senate owes it to itself
to expose the guilty or clear itself Of
suspicion.
Notwithstanding Judge Bradley's de-
cisions. by which the guilty trust mag
mates escaped punishment for their con-
tempt of the Senate, that body can COM
pei them to answer its questions, or to
remain in prison for the rest of their
lives.

HEAn.S DESPOTISM.

Big Bully Reed has considerable
nerve TO write a magazine article on
How the House Does Business" Reeds
policy has effectually destroyed the
business character of the House. 1t
is hopeless for the minority to attempt
to obtain a hearing, for the centralizing
effect of Reeds policy has completely
destroyed the deliberative character Of
the ,ower branch of the national legis-
lature.
The work Of the House is done
through committees whose reports sup
ply the basis Of its actions. BY refus-
ing 10 appoint any of the committees
except one. with a specific work to do,
and by refusing to entertain any motion
not agreeable to his plans, Reed effec-
tually chokes off all proceedings except
such as may be pleasing to himself.
Within the view Of parliamentary
law the presiding officer of parlia-
mentary body is its servant, but it is
urged in justification of Reeds assump-
ton of mastery that he is supported by
the majority. whose will should rue.
But the object of parliamentary law and
orderly proceeding in legislative bodies
is not solely to enable the majority TO
execute its will, but TO protect the
minority in its right to a hearing and
70 prevent the tyrannous exercise Of
the power of the majority.
Reed has merely organized the power
Of the majority into close trust, with
one man az managing director. He has
established the most convenient form
for the exercise Of tyranny, and has
eliminated altogether the safeguards Of
the minority'S rights. Reed seems 10
be Indifferent to the consequences of
his course and his party colleagues are
too weak or too greedy of the advant-
ages Of his tyranny to protest against
II. II seems incredible that they should
not realize the possible consequences OF
such a course. But they may taste the
bitter fruits of Reeds wrongdoing.

Republicans as revolutionary should
come into power and elect a Speaker

lions and presidents. One can imagine

tell Instantly when the slightest IN
iurv has been inflicted on his charge.
The occasion of Minister De Lone 5
protest is the cal made upon Secretary
sherman by Senior Estrada Palma, the
chief of the Cuban junta in this coun-
trv. The visit was an informal one
and Senior Palma went to the Depart
ment of State as a private individual
and not as a representative Of the Cuban
government, but Senior De LONE finds
no difference in the effect on Spanish
dignity. Any communication, he as
serts. even about the weather, between
Secretary Sherman and Senior Palma Is
an outrage on SPANS dignity
This outrage is evidently not light
matter. for Senior De Lone declares
that nothing but the serious crisis az
home prevents him from making 1t
matter of state and demanding repara-
ton from the United States.
1t is evident that something ought to be
done. that additional. safeguards ought
to be applied, to prevent further out
RACES to SPANS dignity. The officers
of the administration ought to be given
a special training in the precise course
of conduct which respect for so delicate
and gorgeous a thing demands, for one

other official. may so offend Spanish
dignity as 10 involve us in complications
with Madrid and maybe become a cause
Of war. We are not safe while Span
ish dignity is at large and liable to be
iostled or outraged at any moment. 1t
should be put in a glass case and placed
out of reach on a pedestal, or Minister
De LONE might wrap it in cotton and
carry it about with him so as to be
sure it is safe. When a nation has
nothing left but dignity, great care
should be taken of it. If anything
fatal should happen to it what would
Spain do?

Tyranny is a two-edged sword and in
promoting the development OF it in the

signs than they exercise in securing
