TANNER HELPS HIS FRIENDS.

Mondays Chicago Record uncovers some OF
Governor Tanners schemes to help some of
his friends in business way. The Record
publishes some of Tanners letters to officials OF
state institutions of Illinois Suggesting" that
they buy goods tor the institutions from the
firms named in his letters. Tanner mentions
eighteen favorite firms from whom he wants
the state to purchase, for its charitable and
penal institutions, its groceries, boots and
shoes, dry goods, crockery, clothing, hats and
caps, produce, hardware and meats Armour
& Co., of embalmed beef notoriety, are the
ones to furnish meats. Tanner says he wants
these firms to be patronized by the state be-
cause they ale "onr friends" and have econ
tributed to Republican success"
Tanner is evidently Republican Republic

"WHO'LL PULL DOWN THE FLAG?"

This is the question that is constantly asked
nv the expansionists-no because they love
Old Glory, but because they imagine that by
this ceaseless cry they can stampede the more
timid of the forces that oppose McKinley's i'm
peraistic policy. No true patriot wants to see
Our beautiful national emblem disgraced, and
every true patriot feels constrained to pull 1t
down when its enemies disgrace it by placing
it where it has no right to be.
General Bates has concluded treaty with
the sultan of Sulu, by the terms OF which
treaty he (the sultan) is allowed to keep his
wife and seventeen concubines In other words,
polygamy is permitted in a country Cor island)
which, according to the treaty, is now under
the sovereignty of the United States, and over
which the stars and stripes now float. The
sultan is to receive So, 900 year from Uncle
Sam, as his salary.
Not only is polygamy allowed, but slavery OF
the worst kind. A man can even be enslaVeo
on account of debt.
Do the true patriots of America endorse such
work? Do they believe Old Glory is in her
proper place while waving over the island OF
Sulu, where the constitution OF the United
States is utterly ignored?
No patriot endorses this action, and every

taken from this land where it is disgraced

Kansas "Anti-TruSt" Delegates

The Kansas delegation to the antitrust meet
ing to be held by the Chicago Civic Federation
has several "anti-trust stars" in its membership.
Attorney General GODDARD is delegate. He
says he really don't see what harm the trusts
do, and he fears that prosecution of the trusts
would destroy competition.
Senator John F.. Hessin, of Manhattan, has
been for years the general attorney for the
American Book Company in Kansas-one OF
the big trusts-and railroad attorney.
]. K. Cubbison, of Kansas City, is repre-
sentative of the "plain people" who dabbes in
corporation law.
c. E. Elliott, of Winfield, is a lawyer who
does business with corporations.
The other members of the delegation are
William A. White, George H. Buchanan, Win
field, Congressman w. j. Bailey and Governor
Stanley.
The fact that Governor Stanley has Pullman
and railroad passes does not, in his opinion
prevent him from going to Chicago and max
ing an antitrust speech, which he is now pre-
paring.-Topeka State Journal.

rhe Good American.

Now it came to pass that a certain Filipino
went down from Jerusalem to Jerico, and fell
among Spaniards, who stripped him of his pos
sessions and wounded him, and would not even
then take their departure, but staid with him
and over him, and insisted that he should be
their political and industrial slave.
And by chance there came down certain
German that way; and when he saw the Fill
Pine, he passed by on the other side.
And likewise an Englishman, when he was
at the place, came and looked on the Filipino,
and passed by on the other side.
But certain American, as he journeyed,
came where the Filipino was; and when he saw
him he had compassion on him, and went to
him, and drove the Spaniards away from him.
and wrested from them his possessions, and
bought from them his liberty, and then said
unto him: Be now my political and industrial
slave, and will be thy master and landlord,
and when it seenieth good to me to set thee
free, and to return unto thee thy possessions, II
it ever does, will do so.
But the wicked Filipino said, do not want
any master or landlord, but do want my free
dom, and if thou dost not grant these to me,
then l will fight thee as l fought the Span
ia1ds.
Then it came to pass that the good American
fell upon the wicked Filipino, and half killed
him, beating him until he said: 1t is enough; !
will be thy political and industrial slave.
Then said the good American unto one who
stood by: Have not been neighbor INTO him
who fell among Spaniards? Go, and do thou
likewise.
But the one who stood by said to himself: 1t
had been better for the poor Filipino if he had
been left alone to fight the bad Spanards, for
he would soon have overcome them and been
no mans slave.--People's Paper.

TO DODGE THE ISSUE.

When the Republicans declared that they
would fight the trusts, they "bit OFT mole than
they could chaw," and now, like the Dutch
man who caught the bear, they want somebody
to help them let go.
In a recent issue of the Kansas City Journal,
the editor quotes portions of an article from the
Review of Reviews, in which the plan OF dodg'
ine the trust issue in 1900 is outlined. The
plan briefly stated, is this:
The next congress will submit to the people
an amendment to the constitution giving con-
eress discretionary power to deal with trusts
7iust as though congress hasn't that power
alreadv). The amendment is to be voted upon
at the next election.
This, according to the writer, will remove
the question as an issue from the next presi-
dental campaign, thus depriving the Demo-
Gratis and other elements of the opposition OF
their best card. The plan will not work, how
ever 1t is too gauzy. The people can see
through it too plainly. There will be hght
against the trusts despite the efforts OF the Ke'
publicans to prevent it.

DREYFUS CONDEMNED.

The long-drawn-out trial of Captain Drey-
fus. of the French army, is at an end, and
Dreyfus is again declared guilty, and is con-
demned to ten years imprisonment. The ver-
dict surprises no one, although there was no
evidence to prove his guilt. The fact is' the
verdict was premeditated-a foregone con-
clusion. The judges who tried him were de-
termined to convict him, regardless OF the EVIL
dence.
Dreyfus is Jew, and is hated by French
officers of the army, who were determined to
oet rid of him, by fair means or foul.
The conviction of Dreyfus is condemned by
the whole civilized world, and it will do France

CRAVING FOR ANNEXATION


The demand of the British West India
possessions for annexation to the United
States, coupled with the petition of the Porto
Ricans for unrestricted trade intercourse
and the situation in the Philippines and
Cuba, render the annexation problem de
cidedly live issue with the American PEG
pie. Does the administration contemplate
admitting these outlying islands TO the full
benefits of American citizenship. with IN.
restricted trade facilities and all the priv :
leges which the sovereign States enjoy in
their intercourse, one with another2 This
is question in which the people are inter
ested and would like to be enlightened.
There are large numbers of people, avowed
expansionists, who would be stouty op.
posed to taking in the captured islands and
other outlying territory on an equality with
the States. The people of these possessions
are VIGOROUSLY unfit for self government,
and are utterly ignorant of the first princi
piles of free and enlightened administration.
1t is because of the debased state OF these
populations that labor is so cheap with
them, factor which permits the sale of
their products in active competition with
.hg products of more enlightened com,
nnn'iies.
The absorption of these islands on any
terms Is an unnecessary burden, but TO al
init them to all the privileges OF the States,
and particularly to free aud unrestricted
trade relations would be an outrage upon
our American producers.

TO CONFER ABOUT LYNOHING

A dispatch from Atlanta, Ga, dated May
LIST, says: A State convention which will
have for its mission the discussion of rape
aud lynching and whose object will be TO
find remedy for existing conditions will
probably be called to meet in Atlanta as
soon rs delegates can be selected from the
various counties of the State.
This movement, at first coming only as a
suggestion, has found sufficient backing and
sentiment to cause it TO assume the proper
tons necessary for its success, and it is said
there is no doubt but that the convention
will be held and every county in the State
represented.
The convention will, II is said. not meet
for the purpose of condoning the crime, or
censuring the work oil outraged citizens
who deal out summary punishment to the
assailant 1t is said It's purpose will be to
suggest such changes in the present law as
to make it possible for indictment, trial and
execution of the guilty to follow in such
rapid succession the execution of the crime
as to make 1t impossible for any delay 10
swell the indignation of the people to that
point of frenzy which generates violence
and death to the man who is responsible for
the crime

BALTIMORE CITY ELECTION

The election for Mayor and City Council
In Baltimore, on Tuesday last, resulted in
brilliant and well deserved victory for the
Democrats. 1t was so predicted in our col
umns during the campaign. The Demo
Gratis were thoroughly alive, their candidates
were men of admitted ability and expert
ence, and enjoyed the confidence of every
individual who desired the establishment OF
clean and economic government Whilst
the victory came through the organized
channels Of the Democratic party, a large
number of independent Republicans and
Democrats, who had become disguised with
the corrupt and rotten regime and manage
ment OF their municipal affairs under the
Master dynasty, threw their votes and in
fuence with the Democratic candidates.
The San, the Herald, and the Nesos were
tireless in their efforts, and With every issue
threw hot shot into the ranks oil the enemy
merciless in the exposures Of the men and
and the party who were seeking at the hands
of the people renewal Of their power.
1t was grand victory. Every Repubi-
can fort and breastwork has been demol.
ished, their guns spiked, their flag hauled
down, and the old Democratic flag nailed
TO the mast head 1t is victory that will
send new life, new energy, new blood into
the Democratic heart throughout the State
1t is a victory that tells of the awful and
inevitable retribution that awaits the Re
publican party of Maryland in November
next when the Old Common wealth will bt

to lead in the National charge of 1900.
is a victory that speaks well for the people
Baltimore, for it is an endorsement OF clear
men and desire Tor good government
