THE POST DOTH PROTEST Too
MUCH.

The esteemed Washington Post-noth-
ing If not Republican, continues TO COM
plain of the Democratic party that il is
Democratic and keeps on dealing in
pure and undetiled Democracy at the
same old stand, under the same old
name. and leadership OF William j.
Bryan. Hear it (the Post Is alludine
to the recent Democratic State con-
vention of Pennsylvania:
IF the managers of that convention
had Deen under bonds to carry out the
wishes of the Republican leaders in the
State they could have hit upon no way
of doing so more effectually than nv
their pledge of fidelity and devotion
TO the Chicago platform and their full
some laudation Of our matchless leader,
William Jennings Bryan"
Our contemporary objects to this
wholesale endorsement" of Demo
cracy by Democracy as something
monstrous ia folly, If not in iniquity,
as IL it had expected the PENNSYLVANIA
convention to deny its faith repudiate
It's matches leader" and appeal to
the Post. or To Mr.. Hanna, to make

or any old unprinciplcd political bum

credulity by declaring that the Penn
sylvania Democrats. in this wholesale
endorsement OF Democracy have ac.
tually carried out" the wishes of the
Republican leaders of the State as IL
they had been under bonds to do so!
That being so. however, in the mind
OF the Post. wherefore grieve or quar-
rel over 1t? IL the Democrats are
pleasing themselves in candidate and
platform. and thereby greatly crafty
ing the Republicans. both parties are
suited. and the Post, rs n Republican
bugler, has no reason to grumble. But
there's the rub. The whole Republican

Even the foremost administration
organs are now hedging on the Philip
pino question. The Washington horn
blowers of imperial conquest admit that
this administration has got us into a
"Predicament in Luzon." 1t is the lead
ing administration organ at Washing
ton which speaks in this most astonish-
ing manner:
I'VE do not agree with that Cabinet
official who is reported as having COM
planned that the Tilipinos do not know
when tht-are whipped If we are to
believe the press reports that reach US,
they are not whipped at all, or in any
immediate danger of being so. Neither,
to be frank, do we see any reason why
the Filipinos should suspend hostlities.
We have declared no policy which they
can consider from a peaceable or a
political point OF view. and we have
failed to convince them OF the necessity
of surrendering to a force of whose pur-
poses they are thus far ignorant"
Lo! rank seditionl" Let not a line
of it reach the Philippines. and let no
more truth from the Philippines reach
us. Truth on either side-from either
direction-is too much for this imperial
military oligarchy with it's money

A TRUST OF TRUSTS.
BY Geo. II. SHIRLEY.

The ship subsidy bill. fathered by
Senator Mark Hanna and Congressman
Payne, OF New York, was favorably re-
ported to both the House and Senate of
the last Congress. and the Republican
managers are comitted to the passage
of the measure. the daily press has been
muzzied by the great corporations
whom the bill will enrich by hundreds
of millions of dollars. and q large por-
ton of the Republican campaign fund
is to come from the same source. It's
provisions are thus characterized by
the most influential labor Organizations
engaged in the ship-building trades:
the Nanna-Payne bill, officially en-
titled Asnate No. 5024. is one of the
most un-American bills ever presented
in the interest Of foreign corporations,
being practically a free ship bill, with
sufficient Americanism held in reserve
to enable Its progenitors to loot the

PROSPERITY is STILL AsTRAy.

Even the Baltimore Sun drops wise
word occasionally. as in the following
which forms part OF its comment on
some expressions of the Philadelphia
Manufacturer:
"As to the Manufacturer's conclusion.
that Mckinley will be renomnated
and reelected it is not improper to
remember that 1t Is wise never to
prophesy unless you know"
AT any rate it seems rather pre-
mature for Hanna to move this year
that the American people omit the
Presidential election next year and un-
animously continue Mckinley in office
1T Is the unexpected that happens
in France-and sometimes elsewhere.

and a plenty Of money. Their methods
of swindling demand these, or show
of both; but while their promoters and
touters needs must have a measure. of
prosperity and money to do business
successfully on. all the evidence goes
to show that this business consists
chiefly in multiplying Con paper) by
two. or four. or more. while the actual
capital grows less. in fact. by use. loss
and waste. Like Keeley's Motor. the
trust deals in wind and water. and its

The crops forebode a worldwide
scarcity for 1S99-19o0. This scarcity
will apparently. to some extent, neu-
tralize or counteract the currency con-
traction that has lowered the prices of
food stuffs. Nevertheless. though prices
rise by reason of short crops. the scar

OF that scarcity will be augmented by
the evils Of insufficient grain supplies.
The grain-producers who this year
make a good or average harvest may
rejoice in the high price for bread

will eat less and pay more for It, to
their sorrow and suffering. Prosperity

TRUSTS WILL BETRAY THEIR

1t is actually amazing what defer

BILE persons and papers to everybody
and everything smackinS Of money.
Even very conservative journals speak
of correct corporate combinations" as
allowable If not desirable trusts, and
the American Land and Title Register
highly praises what it calls Legitimate
trusts" But the Register has some re-
marks that are worthy of wide perusal:
Following in the wake of legitimate
trusts and stimulated by the general
disposition to again loosen purse
strings. to invest. to speculate. 1t is not
strange that hundreds of bubble
schemes should have been launched,
made glittcring and alluring by the
clever promoter. The unfortunate fea-
ture is that the people have used poor
Judgment, have been caught like moths
drawn to the flame which fascinutes
but stinEs unto death. Doubtless, con-
ditions will gradually seek an adjust

perly say, with the unfortunate bicy-
cist who with poor Judgment went
bump against an leo wagon, he struck
frost a blunt Western capitalist
when solicited by an Eastern promoter
to lay few thousand on shares, de-
clined with the following laconic words
of his opinion of the subject in general:
The
Trust
Must
Bust"
without any exception, all real or
bogus combinations OF enormous power
and stupendous capital are, or should
be. unlawful; and it is true Of everyone
Of them: The trust must bust"
Whether Incorporated. or not. no huge
private organization. of practically un-
limited money and power, or of uncon-
trollable kind or degree. should be al
lowed by law; and there should be rea-
sonable and manageable limits to which
all such associations are strictly bound;
and this irrespective OF any other con-
sideration than that of the public peace
and safety which government must be
able to command and control vi ct
arms. If necessary.
Liberty is not absolute personal lib
erty. That is anarchy, or brute exis-
tence in a condition of nature. Liberty
is freedom. limited and regulated by
law; nor is there any liberty not thus
regulated: nor can liberty co-exist with
any power, or claim. or pretension not
amenable and coercible to government
and regulation. a right may become
an outrage, a liberty or privilege a des-
potism. unless restrained or restraina-
BILE. The trust. or combination, or
association, that asserts unlimited right
or power. must be destroyed, or ruled,
or 1T will destroy or rule.
Despotism. sanctifled by holiness and
inspired by wisdom. is the best. hap
piest and cheapest government. But
how insure or procure or maintain its
holiness and wisdom? Shall we pool
and capitalize all our rights. liberties
and privileges. even though the trust
be insured and guaranteed by a secur-
ity company combining all our power,
capital and interest?
But trusts Will betray themselves?

Or all the different federal officers
required to carry on the government
of the United States only one is elect
i've by the people-members of the
lower house of congress. The sena-
tors are appointed by legislatures;
the justices of the supreme court. and
judges of the circuit end district
courts, court of claims and court of
appeals are all appointed by the
president who himself is chosen by
an electoral college, who do not al
ways represent the majority vote of
the people. The president also ap-
points cabinet officers who are the
executive heads of the various de-
partments Of government. Thous-
ands of subordinates in all the de-
partments mentioned including post
masters, are also appointed. For
republic we are pretty thoroughly
tincturad with habits of monarchy.
The HERALD believes the interests of
the people would be better served by
a change in the constitution, making
the judges of the supreme court
and the cabinet officers. The former
ought also to be elected for term of
years instead of for life. The idea
that life tenure of Office will remove
the officer from politics is absurd. but
but the life tenure does place them

for their deeds. While political psr-
ties are demanding the election of
United States senators by the people
let them also include the supreme
court, the president and cabinet
officers.
