It's up to the People.

Less than year remains In which
to gather facts, and information that
will influence your vote for the next
president of the United States.
That grievous wrongs have been
committed, and grave errors allowed
to exist without effort at correction, is
evidenced by the speech, writings, and
comments of eminent statesmen and
jurists congressman and leading men
of business; professors and clergymen
in every state.
Party affiliations have been ignored
in the outcry against thrusting aside
the safeguards of our fathers and rush
ing pell-mell into the affairs of Europe.
The situation is deplorable one if
not alarming; as is also our domestic
affairs dominated by gigantic Trusts.
The evils are not of spontaneous
growth They are the result of years
of labor and expenditure of millions
of dollars! Beginning with the dis
placement of American silver for
English gold, the cunning of Eng
lands diplomacy in shaping the des-
tiny of our Republic is apparent to
any ordinary observer seeking the
true inwardness of events.
The Cincinnati Enquirer has fire.
quently called attention to each and
every move as it was transporting, and
during the campaign of 1900 will
present its readers with a truthful
array of facts that will be extremely
interesting and startling.
No fair-minded American, be he
Republican, Democrat or of other
political faith, can afford at this critical
time to ignore the truth. Partisan
prejudice, with the Trusts as dictators,
is a far more degrading slavery than
that which existed previous to the Civil
War of '61-64.
Trusts in the United States alone
nave representative capital greater
than all the gold and silver in the
world. These will spend many more
millions of dollars to suppress truth

Beyond their plausible decep-
sla5. Read the Enquirer and you
viii be able to discern the truth and
combat falsehood. A victory for
Trusts and the Mckinley Admins
ration in 1900 will end the era of
greatest good to greatest number.

A FRIEND OF AMERICANS.
Horace L. Higgins, OF Manila, and
His Kindly Services.

Dispatches from the Philippines since
the opening Of the war with Aguinaido's
followers have frequently mentioned the
name OF Horace L. Higgins, and always
toward the American forces or individual
Americans who have gotten into trouble.
Mr.. Higgins Il respected and even loved
by the natives, and he has saved the lives
Of several Americans. The story Of how
he rescued an American photographer
whom the rebels had cornered In box
car is well known. Mr.. Higgins, who hap
pened along. declared the prisoner. whom
he had never seen before. was a personal
friend OF his and guest at his house,
with the result that the American was al
lowed to go. Even at the present time
ar. Higgins has under his roof two Amer
lean civilians who have sought safety
there because OF the threats of the Fill
pinos. according to dispatches.
Mr.. Higgins Is the Snowman Of the Phi
lippines He, more than any other one
man. has been instrumental In exploiting
the wealth and agricultural possibilities OF
Lux0n. He Is director general Of the only
railroad In the island. From Its concep-
ton twelve years ago he has contributed
his experience and rare understanding OF
native character toward the establishment
Of commercial relations with the FfIipinos
Nearly every week during that period Mr..
Higgins has made at least one trip into
the interior. and by friendly intercourse
has been able to assist the natives to a
better understanding of foreign character
and methods Of doing business. The Fill
pinos have unlimited confidence in him.
and during half a dozen revolutions did
not modest his tracks nor do any consid-
cradle damage They turned out, whole
villages at a time, to replace the devasta-
ton wrought by Spanish troops.
Mr.. Higgins has been the soul Of gener-
osity and hospitality to Americana Many
OF our generals naval captains and news
paper men have been his guests on trips
over the line In his private car. 1t Ia a
two days journey. and an experience as
novel as 1t Is instructive MIR. Higgins has
shown his faith In native character by en-
ploying Fflipinos in every department of
his railroad. His home is at Caloocan. and
there his charming wife. grandniece Of
the late king OF Spain, anG, his two pretty
children have lived during the insurrec-
tions. A number of bullet holes In his resi-
dence testify TO skirmishes between the
Spanish and insurgent troops. Mr.. Hig-
gins Is a native OF Bedfordshire. England.
