The effect of the construction of the
Trans Siberian Railway is thus describ-
ed by a Russian official paper:
THE power of economic impulse Civ
en- to the great line can be seen in
many ways In the center of great
ranges of mountains rich coal mines
have been discovered and are already
being exploited by several large COM
panies. Small villages are becoming
towns. on the other hand, certain in

that the railway is to do a great work,
nine wooden bridges on the line have
been burned down since last spring.
This crime is laid to the principal car
riers,. or caravan propriertors, who find
10 more work since the railway has
been inaugurated."

No man deserves any credit for do
ing the proper thing under compul-
sion, and there never was clearer
case of official action under compuI-
zion than Mr.. McKlnley's order for
the courtmartial of Commissary Gen
eral Eagan, for his filthy abuse of
Gen. Miles. Mr.. Mckinley was dis
posed to allow Secretary Alger to try
to hush it up in his own way, which
would not have hushad 1t up at all,
ntil he began to hear from infuen-
tial men of his party, in Congress
and all over the country. Therefore
he deserves no credit for dong when
he found it absolutely necessary what
should have be en- done the day that
Eagan's filth was dumped upon the
public. Although he has been turn
ed down Alger has not resigned, and
those who know him best do not be-
lieve that he will. unless forced by
Mr.. Mckinley to do SO. Tne court
martial is bound to find Eagan guilty,
and the punishment is dismissal from
the army. Whether Mr., Mckinley
will dare to modify that sentence, is
yet to be seen.

How can a farmer who ships stock
into Kansas City and finds that the
Populist stock yards law saves him
half the expense of marketing, criti-
else the Populists. Heretofore the
commission men could charge with
Cut limit for selling. Now they are
limited. They could make 400%
profit on corn and hay fed to stock.
Now the company cannot make more
than 1O026 profit off the shippers.
Isn't that enough? For the past 20
years the live stock company made
about 20 per cent on their investment.
Farmers make about 4 per cent.
Was it not right to restrict the
charges? Republican farmer who
reads this, why are you not Popu-
list farmer? Do you not befriend
the principles which protect and
profit you?

Reed point of view, than man who

1t is1ot difficult to point out
defects in the naval bill passed by
the House last week. Some of them
notably the premium that will he
offered for retirement on three-quar-
ters pay of officers, we're pointed out
by Representative Bailey, but the
order 10 jam the bill through was
obeyed, IS usual, by the majority.
The best features about the bill is
that which will put an end to the
clashing between the two classes of
naval officers, the line and the On
gineer officers, by putting them all in
one class. The bill increases the
pay of naval officers on the plea of
equalizipg them with army officers !;
it increases the Marine Corps by :
800 men, adding 81, 10000 to the an
nual cost of it's maintepat ce it crea-
tes Judge Advocates Corps; it pro-
hibits the payment o prize money,
and it provides for tue retirement of
enlisted men and petty officers after
thirty years service in the navy. Mr..
Bailey charged the majority with he
intention to follow the premium
scheme for retirement of naval off,
GERS with similar one for army
officers, and he might also have said
that the retirement of privates and
non-commissioned officers of the
army would be likely to follow, as
q part of the grand scheme of imper-
ialism that Is being nursed by the
republicans.

As To Polygamist Roberts.

| Ex-senator George r. EdmOnd
gives it as his opinion that the Utal
polygamist congressman can not b.
deprived of his seat upon any lega
grounds, except by two thirds vott
to ''expel' on the broad and arbitrary
grounds of for cause" Judge Ed
monds is regarded as one of the bes
constitutional lawyers IN the country
and what he says will carry weigh
with it. He was discussing the lega
rather than the ethical phrase of po
lygamy, nevertheless he startles the
country when he says ''the govern
ment has no constitutional power te
suppress polygamy in a state" He
goes further than that and says it i:
within the legal power of Utah, and
every other state, to make polygamy
lawful if it chooses" He says that
fact was practically admitted wher
Utah was given statehood. 1t will be
borne in mind that Judge Edmonds
was talking sa constitutional lawyer
and that personally he abhors poly
gamy and polygamists.
As to Utah, however, public senti
ment obliged the people of territory
to solemnly pledge themselves tc
abandon polygamy and prohibit poly.
gamous marriages as condition oi
admission. The pledge was quickly
given, but if it was given with a
mental reservation with the inten
tion of secretly or openly evading
it after admission the Mormons
prove themselves to be utterly un.
worthy of being citizens of any kind,
and that would be sufficient grounds
to expell Roberts or any other Utah
poiygamist congressman "for cause .
There is not the shadow of a doubt
as to how public opinion views Rob
erts' election. He is not only poly.
gamist, but boasts of it and defies
public sentiment. He cares nothing
for the pledges the Church" gave te
secure statehood for Utah, but is glad
that his people deceived the public
