Industrial freedom. [volume] (Edison, Wash.) 1898-1???, 1898-10-29

Today we need u prophet. but there is none
to cry aloud, A great nation goes out to
fight battle of the poor against the OPP
pressor, and its army comes home sick and
dying from needless hardship, exposure, neg
lect, starvation and misgovernment The
reason why this happens is because the re-
sponsibility and care of the soldiers have
been turned over to politicians. Because
someone gave $4,000 to the Republican cam
paign fund, hundreds of troops are set down
in a camp to which his railroad affords the
only access. Because some gilded youth
without character or brains, had a father or
an uncle or grandfather in congress or some
other place of power and trust, he is put into
place where the government will pay him
for his useless services salary that he may
stand between the starving and their bread,
between the physician and the fever, between
the dead and place to rest where homeland
breezes blow and friends may come to rest
Portland Oregonian.
This is the wall of the supporter of
the system which makes such scenes
and events possible. Why not try to
remove the causes? Whining like
whipped dog has been tried for scores
of years, but abuses grow just the
same. Specialization is a remedy;
then why not cease your silly whining
and apply the remedy in positive,
resolute, manly way?

AN EARTHLY PARADISE.

In the year 1903 the mountain shep-
herds of Appenzell and two other can
tons of Switzerland struck blow for
freedom and equality against their ty
rants that resounded through the
world. These plain but bright mind
ed men laid the foundation of a gov
ernment hitherto unknown to human
society. They resolved that all of
them should live in as perfect equality
as human nature would admit Of To
effect this they made hOmesteads per-
petual in the family and put a limit to
Individual ownership of land. They
also founded against any possible
monopoly of public necessities such as
water, fuel and light supplies. What
ever became a public need was to be
administered by the public for the pub
lie. One man might become richer than
Others but wealth should give no more
power over others. Every person
over eighteen years of age was to
have an equal voice in making laws.
All laws were to be voted on by the
people. Offices were to be held for the
honor and not for profit. Being
very industrious and ingenious people
their wealth increased above that of
any other people and the products of
their arts went to every land. In
time their population became the
most dense of all Europe. Today,
some five hundred years after it is said
of them by travellers that there is not
one poor person to be found although
some are immensely rich. Their
dwellings are really palaces. Every
foot of ground is cultivated like gar
den. Money is SO abundant that in
terest is nominal only. The means of
subsistence are superabundant. A
royal meal can be had anywhere for
five cents and plenteous one for a
penny. All this has come because no
one man has been able to take from
labor by fraud or force it's product.
Consequently the public wealth has
grown to greater proportions than in
any other land.-The Salem Sentinel.

A NEW YEAR SONG.

Early in the young year, before the frosts
were over,
l heard the flowers stirring in the warm
dark down below.
Tulip bulb whispered to the rose root like
a lover.
Maiden snowdrop shook and thrilled with
a birthing throe.
will you be a red rose. or tall white
rose to clamber?"
rs my love lily?" Such sweet whispers
thrill
In the brown earth's bosom. wherein no
lily amber
Knoweth if it shall not rise daffodil
Early in the young year, so they talk to-
Daisy seed and daffany, clematis and
grass:
Grass blade loves canary flower. and into
April weather
Out of this sweet nursery he and she will
pass.
Not a grass blade doubts or dreams that
the strong earth tether
Bids him rise a dwarf in green, and she
climb high alas,
Not daisy doubts that the sunfiower is
her mother,
Not a tulip guesses that when thew find
the light
Lily flower with lily flower will mate and
love each other.
And the red rose break troth with the
rose that's white.

LORD SALISBURY.

The indications are that Lord Sails
close, and this not because of political
changes in England, but because of his
failing health. He appears to be
threatened with melancholia, so we
judge, as he is said to be suffering
from depression. He is not an Old
man, having been born in 1880. His
public life began in 1858 when he was
elected member of parliament for
Stamford. He first became prime min
lister June "a, 1885, holding the position
until February, 1886. In August of
that year he again became prime min
lister, holding the position until August,
1892 His present appointment dates
from June %, 1895.
He is more prominent in interna-
tional politics today than ever before,
and this because of the many inter
national complications that exist on
every hand. In almost every country
he has rivals, but it is doubtful if any
of them would care to see him sue
ceeded by any one else at this par
ticular juncture, for they are all
familiar with his policy and methods.
A new man at the head of the British
government might mean a new policy;
at least there would be apprehension
that it did until time had shown the
contrary. All the world will wish him
a speedy and complete recovery from
his illness, no matter what the world
may think of him politically.
Lord Salisbury came before the
American people very prominently at
the time of the Venezuelan incident
Very naturally he was not regarded
with much favor, but if he was looking
out for British interests it should be
remembered that that was his first
duty. For while he appeared to be
very sulky over the Venezuelan matter,
and for long time there was much
conjecture rs to what he would do,
but he finally Gcquiesced in the course
pursued by President Cleveland. Should
he now retire from office he would very
likely be succeeded by the Hon. Arthur
j. Balfour. He would probably fall
short of measuring up to Salisbury's
size the same as Rosebery failed to
measure up to Gladstone's size.

DINGLEY'S ADMISSION.

The Democrats in the house had a
fine time Saturday, playing horse with
Chairman Dingley; in fact, he must
have felt as though he were being rid
den on a rail. The occasion was the
offering by Mr.. Dingley of the bill re-
ported from the ways and means COM
mittee, providing for the free entry into
this county of guns, ammunition and
other naval supplies and war material
purchased abroad for the use of the
government, until Jan. l. 1899. He ex-
planned that the committee had unan-
imously reported the bill, and that It
had been asked for by the secretaries
of war and the navy. When he had
finished his remarks, some of the Dem
ocrats asked him why these supplies
should be admitted free of duty if the
foreigner pays the tax" This seemed
to irritate and nettle him, for he re-
piled rather sharply that it was per-
fectly understood that where articles
were purchased abroad and imported
into this country, the purchaser paid
the duty.
Here, at least, was a Dingley. if not
a Daniel, come to judgment. On this
point of who pays the tax, he freely ad-
mitted what Democrats have persist
emily maintained and what Republicans
have as persistently denied. Argument
to show that the importer paid the tax
and that he added it to the price of his
goods when selling them to the people,
has been entirely lost upon Republican
ears, as has been the citation of the
great authority of Hamilton that such
was the case. And now comes the
Hon. Nelson Dingley, jr., of Maine, the
greatest apostle of protection of all
time. declaring in the halls of congress
and to the whole world that he perfect
ly understands that when articles are
purchased abroad and imported into
this country, the purchaser pays the
taxi To the orthodox protectionist
this admission must seem rank heresy.
To protectionists. most economical
truths rank as heresies.

Spain would revenge herself by melting
revolt in the southern states in this
country. The Spanish ambassador to
through his hat when he said that
Whether or not the Unitsd States could
incite a revolt in the Philippine islands.
nothing in the world is more certain
than that Spain could not incite a re-
volt in any of the southern states. Per-
haps her ambassador at Vienna thinks
she could because Spain recognized
southern belligerency. Vain, idle
thought. Today the states OF the south
are as loyal to the Union as are those
of the north. At this very moment.
when the relations between the United
States and Spain are greatly strained,
the government has as its representa-
tive at Havana, the most important
post in the consular service at this
time, an ex-confederate general, the
nephew of General Robert E. Lee, the
commander of the confederate armies
And this same ex-confederate general,
Fitzhugh Lee, is just as popular at the
nortn dS at tne Soulh- op1iH iiASi'
just as well count upon stirring up re-
volt in the states that were represented
in the Hartford convention as in the
states that seeded in 1851. The truth
is that the people OF the states where
the Spanish ambassador to Austria
talks about melting a revolt are a little
more anxious for a go" with Spain
than are those of the north. Stir up
revolt in the south? The idea makes
the whole American people laugh in
unison and derision.

THE CASE OF LIANT AND TRACY.

1t is said that Governor Adams of
Colorado, is willing to surrender Liant
and Tracy to the Utah authorities, and
that after they have served out their
terms in the Utah penitertiary they
can be tried for the murder of " S.
Hoy. and no doubt convicted. 1t would
be very much better to have them tried
for Hoy's murder than be returned to
this state, for the proba abilities are that
they would be found guilty of murder
in the first degree and sentenced to
death. The evidence against them is
fresh now and easily obtainable. If
their trial for Hoy's murder is post
poned for several years it will be a
very difficult matter to obtain the
evidence against them. The witnesses
may die, and if they do not they are
very likely to become scattered. To re-
turn Liant and Tracy to this state to
serve out their uneXpired terms is not
in the best interests of justice or the
peace and welfare of the state; it
would increase a hundred fold their
chance of escape of punishment for
the murder of Hoy. Even if they
should not be convicted of murder in
the first degree, they would be almost
sure to be convicted, and if they did
not get a life sentence they would get
a long term. After they had served
that they could serve their unexplred
term in the Utah penitentiary. Let
them be tried in Colorado by all means.
Even if acquitted, they can then be
returned to Utah.

sullivan,s 'Apprenticsshin.

Sir Arthur Sullivan has always had a
capacity. not only for clever, but for ex-
ceeedingly rapid work. When a very
, young man he desired some training in
| the composition OF operate music. and
with characteristic energy determined TO
! learn something of the technique of the
as organist for the opera in Covent Gar
den. where his musical facility at once
came into general request.
On ore occasion he was admiring the
borders which had been painted for a
woodland scene.
Yes said the painter. they are very
well, and if you could support them by
something suggestive in the orchestra we
could get a pretty effect"
Mr. Sullivan at once wrote into the
score some delicate arpeggiO work for
flutes and clarinets. and every one was
quite happy.
Next day, perhaps, the machinist would
say:
mfr. Sullivan, the iron doesn't run as
must have a little more music to cover

Certainly, Mr.. Sloman.' the composer
would reply. gravely, you have opened
