UNEQUAL Distribution.

There is mighty hungering on this old
earth of ours after the honors that are soul-iat-
isfving. There is something lacking in civllz-
alton which breeds dissatisfaction in the heart
and soul of man. Even the most materially
successful seem to have grasped with their sue
cess the bitterness of defeat. During all the
centuries gone before the human race has en-
gagged in fierce contest for supremacy over the
natural elements, but the moment thinking
man applied the faculties OF intellect TO the
problem of material production, then began
mans ascendancy over the brute. The day
that mans inventive genius called to his aid
the sharpened flint or whispered in his listen
inq ear that fish would bite a bated hook, that
moment the doom of the brute in human kind
was sealed.
To-day the human race has practically solv-
ed the problem of material production. With
our modern methods and machinery we can
produce enough in three months to satisfy the
material wants of the human race for year.
But an equitable division of these benefits to
the individual member of society is yet to be
devised. With all our vast productive ability
doubled, quadrupled and more as it is by moo
ern inventions, we yet have upon the one hand
the pinched and starving poor in vast majority,
and upon the other, the small minority Of mod
erately wealthy.
We are not crying out against the wealth of
the rich, but deploring the needless poverty of
the poor. Conditions as we find them are the
results of the system that can produce no other
condition than poverty and supplication-op
lence and charity. No plan for the ameliora-
ton of society's conditions will suffice that is

HANNA AIRS HIS VIEWS.

Mark Hanna is in London, hobnobbing with
dukes and lords and things-probably getting
pointers on how to run the American empire
when Mckinley becomes emperor. Mark is
talking with his mouth good deal, trying to
make the Brtons believe he is the whole thing
over here. He says his man Mac will be re-
elected next year. Says he:
"My reason for this belief is based on the
fact that the United States is now entering on
renewed era of prosperity. Every promise OF
the Republican party has been kept-every
prediction fulfilled. There is not man in the
United States to-day out of work and who
wants work. This is the normal condition"
There is not an intelligent person in the
United States that does not know there is not
an atom of truth in these statements, The Re-
publican party has not kept single promise.
AS to there being no one out of work, we refer
10 the sixty thousand commercial travellers late
ly discharged, and twenty-five thousand more
whose wages have been reduced. We also re-
fer to the fact that there are, to-day, strikes and
riots in nearly every state in the Union, grow
ing out of labor troubles. Is this "the normal
condition"2 One cannot pick up a daily paper
without reading of labor troubles and OF men
being thrown out of employment by the shut
ting down of factories-mostly by the forma-
ton of trusts, the purchase and closing of the
factories by these trusts.
Hanna may fool the Britons, but he cannot
fool the people of this country. BY his false
statements, he has proven himself

Malicious
Prevariacator.
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1899-07-07

builded upon the old competitive plan, for in
production there is no competition.
The devil take the hindermost plan is no
longer good doctrine because vast majority of
the human race is bringing up at the tail end of
procession. The age of competition is past.
The greatest problem Of civilization is thun-
dering at Our doors for solution. 1t cannot be
solved upon the materialistic plan Altruism
or the brotherhood of man offers the only solu-
ton. Service for the love of serving must take
the place of service for price. Love must be-
come the handspring of human life instead of
avarice. Cooperation must succeed compe-
tition. The principles of Christian religion
of human brotherhood become living re-
alites instead of high-sounding phrases or Sun
day sermons. In this way alone can the soul
longing of the human race be satisfied and the
problem of civilization solved. Poverty can be
abolished and reign of peace, plenty and hap
piness be inaugurated that will fulfill the des-
tiny of human kind. The dawn of the goth
century will see all this and more.-Kansas

THE BOWERS.

We have, heretofore, referred to the "roar-
ers' and "endorsers." There is still another
class of the numerous political family, which
may be known as "bowers." 1t is needless to
say that the same daddy begot the whole outfit.
The bower is twin brother Of the roarer The
bower is usually outside the inner circle, but
wants an office; is encouraged by the chief
bosses, makes canvass, spends money, and is
finally defeated in convention, as designed by
the bosses from the beginning.
1t is in the unwritten code Of the bowers that
they bow to the will of the majority.
On occasions, the bower may be an endorser
or roarer He is the jackass Of America, or
the donkey Of Egypt-always roaring or bow
ing.
The bowers season is on. 1t is taking"
There is big crop in sight, but no over-pro-
duction. Shrewd, unprincipled men gobble all
the fools, and are never full
'Rah for the bower!

A Philippine Letter.

Marinette, Wis, 26.-High D. McCoshan,
for years a resident of this city and now serv-
ing as sergeant in company H, First South Da-
kota volunteer infantry, in the Philippines,
sends startling accounts of the condition OF the
volunteers. The state soldiers, he says, are
falling by scores from bullets, disease and heat,
and men are ordered to the front from their
beds in the hospitals MI. McCoshan's letter
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1899-07-07

ACCORDING to correspondent of the Chica-
90 Record, three very prominent men bear tes-
timony to the fitness of the Filipinos for self
government First is Admiral Dewey, who says:
"These people are far superior to, and more
capable of self-government than, the people of
Cuba, and l am familiar with both races
This statement, it is claimed, was sent in dis
patch to the government and can be found
printed and filed away in Public Document No.
e.. Prof Dean c. Worcester, of Michigan
University, and Prof. Daniel G. Brinton, OF
the University of Pennsylvania, bear similar
testimony 1t seems that the better class of
Filipinos are close kin the Japanese, and, as
we know, Japan is rapidly forging to the front
in the higher civilization OF the human race.
The more light we have, the more certain are
we that our nation committed crime i'll wag-
ing war on the Fiipinos.

IT is amusing to hear the Mckinley apollo
gists whining about the influence of the argyll
ment of the anti-expansionists. They charge
that the continuation of the war in the Philip
pines is due to the expressed views of the anti
expansionists. What's the matter with the
news censors on both sides of the big pond?
Are they asleep, or are they playing trick on
Mckinley by keeping Aguinaldo posted on the
doings of the anti-expansionists on this side?
The fact is, the expansionists are daily losing
ground, and it makes them peevsh and fault
finding They scold like lot of querulous
old women. The more they fume and fret, the
more ridiculous they become. Poor old grannies!

has ceused a sensation, as he bears reputa-
ton for honesty and reliability. The letter,
which is dated at Manila, May IL, and is ad-
dressed to Joseph Thurman, local merchant,
is as follows
"We left the trenches March IS TO NOV. on
Maoos. 1t was costly move for lis. We
lost men every day, fighting practically all the
way to San Fernando.
If the people of the United States could but
know a small part of the truth of The situation

pitfalls are full of men who will never live to
reach home. From present indications The vol
unteers will be relieved in six months. 1t will
then be unnecessary; few will remain. Fever
and dysentery are playing havoc with the boys,
smallpox is raging and heat prostraton is kill
ing men faster than mauser bullets. Two days
after San Fernando was taken our regiment had
but 100 men OH the line, the remainder being
dead, sick or wounded. Gen. Macarthur COM
planned of the number of men sick, other regi-
ments being in the same shape ours, and
Major Potter, with one Surgeon, was sent into
Manila to rush men to the front. Acting under
these 20 were unable to reach the depot, mile
distant, many of them faintng on the way,
some 2S or 80 ultimately arrived at San Fer

Manila, and Others being ordered back by sur

they were i'll precaTious condition.

Spain and the cruelty visited upon the natives

vanity OF star-spangled generals and fog

SOME days ago, prominent Republicans OF
Maryland warned Mckinley that if he and the
rest of the Washington gang did not let up on
their persecution of Admiral Schley, Maryland
would surely give Mckinley the marble heart
in 1900 AS a result, the order has gone forth
that the persecution must cease. Ha! ha! ha!

THE tin-plate factories of the country have
shut down, and $4,000 men are thrown out of
employment This means that $780, 900 are di-
rectly affected, to say nothing of the people of
this country who will be affected by the advance
in price, which is sure to come.

BANK TRUST.

And now there is to be bank trust. 1t will
be organized and run by the big trust compa-
MES if the scheme is carried out.
It seems that the banks offended the trust
men in refusing to loan money on water, and
also in advancing rates of interest. During
the big boom in stocks, call loans went as high
as IA per cent
We presume the bank trust will cheaper
money the same as the trusts cheapened OIL,
steel and other things that are under trust con-
troll. We will have cheap money in spite of
the gold-bugs.
Another great benevolence is in the throes of
tremendous delivery. Whether any provis-
ion will be made for the elder children is not
vet apparent, but it is probable that some OF
the runts will have to beg or steal

trusts or not. Will he do it?

Ceased to Come From the Cape.
LONDON, Dec. e.--The meager dispatch
giving list of the British casualties Mt
Modder river and announcing the bare
fact that Lord Methuen Is still there
awaiting reinforcements, is only supple
mented by brief special message from
Cape Town tonight stating that the Beers
destroyed the bridge over the Modder
river before the battle and are now con-
centrating at Spytfontein, whore the final
battle before Kimberley Is relieved II ex-
pectsd TO take place.
Ali Press Messages stopped.
The censor has apparently stopped all
press messages from the front relating to
the battle. which is not regarded as a fa-
vorable indication. AZ the material re-
suits Of Gen. Methuen's victories, 1t Is
not clear whether Gen. Methuen's forcc
actually crossed the Modder river, or Is
stiil awaiting the rebuilding Of the bridge
before the artillery and cavalry can cross.
In.any case the railroad must be carried
over the bridge before the indispensable
big naval guns. can pass, BECAUSE Lord
Msthuen's last message showed that they
were worked on trucks along the rail-
road. 1t Is . significant fact that Lord
Msthuens d cable makes. no mention Of the
Boer loss. which therefore y assnmdd to
be small.
