Socialism in Germany.

Kaiser Williams violent attack
upon Socialism in his speech at the
Brandenburg banquet is only one OF
many recent signs that the Social
lists have lately been making alarm
ing progress over all Europe. The
Kaiser was very much excited while
muking the attack. This "pest of So
cialism," he said. "infests our whole
nation. 1t must be stamped out to
the last trace" He meant to do it,,
and in his attempt "he would be
glad to know that every ones hand
was in his-that OF the noble and
that of the serf."
Even better evidence than this
of the growing power of Socialism
in Germany is the reply to his speech
made by the Berlin Vorwaerts, the
Socialist organ, which says:
German Socialism will know
how to defeat projected attempts
hidden under the cloud of loyalty
and patriotism, to undermine the
sacred rights OF the people. Down
with the revolution from above.
This is a bold utterance in view
of the imperial laws restricting
freedom of the press. Probably it
would not have been made unless
the Vorwaerts was pretty sure OF
public opinion. But the emperor
seems to mean business. 1t is said
he contemplates repressives meas
ures of the utmost severity, Begin
ming with Diminishing from office all
university professors and state
school teachers who advocate So
cialistic measures. AS there are
q great number of such, the depart.
ment of public instruction will be
thoroughly overhauled. If he per-
sists after that he will doubtless try
to exclude Socialists from the
Reichstag and to suppress the So
cialist newspapers. 1t will be in
teresting to see the result.
Perhaps the result may be dis
astrous to the German empire.
Perhaps it may be that Germans,
like many Americans may conclude
that the curse of socialism is in Its
name only, and continue to seek for
ends identically the same under
some other banner In intelligent
n,tio,.s to day limited Socialism
is approved by all the thinking
classes. No emperor can defeat 1t.

GOOD LAWS
Passed by Our Legislature.

DaSSed more laws In Lne Interest vi
the people than any Legislature that
has met in Kansas for many years.
While many of the laws passed
were of local nature as is always
the case), there are many good laws
of general nature. Following
are the most important laws;
TO regulate public stock-yards.
This bill is aimed at the stock-yards
at Kansas City, Kas, and it pro-
vides for a general reduction in the
charges for feed and yardage of
about 80 per cent. On basis OF
the business done in Kansas City
stock.yards in 1898, the law will
make a saving to Kansas shippers
of about $3.50 900 per year. This
is one of the most important laws
enacted. Efforts to pass such bill
by former Legislatures failed.
To prohibit the forming of trusts.
Under the provisions of this law,
two or more persons or corporations
cannot combine for the purpose OF
controlling supply or prices. Any
corporation violating any of the
provisions of the law shall be fired
from $500 to 81, 900, with imprison-
ment of not more than one year.
A law to regulate the sale OF
school books. This law provides
for the appointment, by the govern
or, of school.book commission of
eight members, the state superin-
tendent of public instruction being
chairman. The commission shall
advertise for bids to supply the
state with books at or below sched-
ule fixed by the Legislature. This
schedule reduces the present rate
about one-half. If the commission
is unable to make contracts at the
prices given, it shall buy manu-.
scripts and arrange for the publica-
tion of the necessary books, For
this last purpose $4,000 has been
appropriated.
A law to create department OF
grain inspection This bill takes
the inspection out of the hands OF
the boards of trade and places it
under the control of the state in
spector. The expenses of this de-
partment will be paid out Of the in
spection fees.
To provide for iuries in cases OF
contempt of court.
To authorize treasurers of coun-
ties having population of less
than 25, 900 to deposit county funds
in banks.
To protect prairies from incursion
by fire. 1t provides that tax of 9
mills on the dollar be made when
ever majority of the voters of a
township or county demand it.
A law to require railroad compa
MES to fence their property on land
that is under fence.
A law requiring street railway
comr anies to vestibule their cars
during December, January and Feb
ruary.
To enable old soldiers to peddle
without license.
To provide for the drainage Of
sw amp lands.
A law providing for the taxation
of mineral reserves.
Prohibiting the dockage of hogs
at the stock-yards.
Providing for the assignment Of
real estate mortgages.
Requiring railroad companies to
furnish free transportation to ship
pers of stock when accompanying
shipments.
To require courts 10 admit grad
yates OF the law department of the
state university to the bar without
further examination.
To abolish the Peabody silk sta
tion. and providing for the sale oi

are they? In the receipt which the

sound and the fortunate? I think
they do. How can they obtain n right
title to their blessings? The Lord has
instituted a means by which they may
receive their blessings by the payment
Of their tithing."
The whole subject is commended TO
the careful consideration of the Lat
ter-day Saints.

onstratcd. for pGfhaps the hunureth

ment's policy toward the Indian. About
1900 Pimns. Mnricopas and Pnpagoes
live on the 55S square miles or the
ella river reservation. They nave a.
ways been loyal end helpful Ito the
whites, who are hupelessly in their
debt FOR protection against hostile
Indians and for timely warnings OF
raids The whites have repaid them
by stealing the most precious OF an
things tn q desert country--water. On
their reservation these Indians once
raised bountiful crops. 1t must be
borne in mind that the reservation In
dian Is practically prisoner. guarded
by United States troops. Therefore
the governments first duty Is to see
that his means of deriving subsist-
ence from his land are conserved. In
this case the Indians settled in the
Gila River valley, depended In the past
upon irrigation for their crops WITH
out water at the right season their
land Is parched and barren. untii
the whites learned that the land OF
southern ARIZONA could be reclaimed
and converted into garden of fer
tility by q system of irrigation the
Indians of the reservation benefited
by copious flow of water IN the
spring of the year Now scarcely drop
trioklcs down to the arid waste when
they cali their reservation. The whites
have stolen their water and turned II
into canals traversing territory that
smiles with grain fields and fruit farms.
For several years the Indian has raised
no crops of any kind on his land.
THE governments second duty be-
gan as soon as the crops failed; that is
to say. II feeds and clothes the ella
Reservation Indians because they have
become paupers. And while II reminds
them at regular intervals that they are
dependent upon its bounty, II educates
them after fashion in the reservation
schools. Imagine white man being
educated by the government to be
pauper. with no hope of being able to
hold his head up among men. The re-
suit of this policy can be foreseen:
The ella Indian must be remarkable
specimen of self-made MANHOOD IL he
does not war upon the white settlers,
who have robbed him. by stealing
from them whenever he gets the oppor-
tunity, and he is the more driven to
this course by a very strong convic-
ton that he has not always re-
ceived intact the supplies intended for
him by the government. The ella In
dams appeal for justice has been be-
fore Congress In one way and another
for ten years. He wants the water
stolen from him, and it has been pro-
posed that the nation provide him with
n new system of irrigation to fructlfy
his lands and make him once more
Independent and self-respecting. But
he has no powerful friends in WASH
ington, and you can get track of his
appeal only by hunting for 1t in
pigeonholes, where 1t may be found in
Undiscovered bundles. neatly tied with
