Monitor gave further proof of it's mug
wumpian tendencies last week by print
ing all that the enemies of Mr.. Way
could say against him and all that the
friends of the independent candidate
could trump UP in his favor. No think

that Stilson has the ghost of show and
we are sorry to see such staunch old
republican paper as the Monitor has
been lending itself to further the inter-

HOT SHOT FOR THE JOURNAL.

-
[Odebolt Chronicle]
The Sioux City Journal copies from
the Cherokee Journal an article stating
that w. E. Hamilton, supervisor of cen
sus for this district went to Cherokee
to meet a Des Moines man at the Lewis
Hotel in that city. in response to tele-
gram from the Des Moines man, and
while there agreed to trade the census
patronage for support for Mr.. Cummins.
The Journal not only reprints this
statement: it says editorially: That
Mr.. Hamilton should be charged with
politics of this low order surprises the
Journal and gives 1t great pain"
The Herald's article is lie Mr..
Hamilton never received telegram or
letter from Cherokee asking him to
meet any one there. He did not know
that any man from Dies Moines was in
Cherokee until he arrived in that town.
He did not promise any man in Chero-
kee county an appointment of any kind.
nor was he asked to do so. Mr.. III. l..
Loft who it is alleged was promised the
position of enumerator, has never APP
piled for appointment. nor has posi-
ton been offered him.
Mr.. Hamilton would have paid no at
tention to the Cherokee Herald's article,
for the authors reputation for veracity
is at such discount that his charges
carry no weight either at home or
abroad. But he deeply resents the en-
dorsement and circulation OF such stuff
by newspaper of the Journals stand
ing, because he feels that in giving cur
rency to such fa.sehoods the editor OF
the Journal is actuated by petty malice

Mr.. Hamilton reserves the right to
travel and confer with his friends and

despite the fact that he holds the office

can not do so without being accused by

conduct things have come to prett,

porting Mr.. Cummins for senator. ant
that fact is taken advantage of b.
cowardly Gear organs like the Journa
to embarrass and discredit and misrep

REPLIES TO THE MONITOR.
IEasle Grove Eaglel


An, article in last weeks Monitor
is certainly a surprise to the friends of
that supposedly republican paper. The
purpose of the publication can be NJ
other than the defeat of one of the most
important nominees of the republican
party in this district, and whose name
it carries in it's columns with the rest
of the republican ticket. Its attack up
on this candidate is little, If any, short
of malicious libel, and Is one of unmiti-
gated cowardice. 1t Is full of those con-
temptible inuendoes and Shiny insinu-
ations that can not be traced anywhere
and that commit nobody. 1t abounds

THE ADDYsroNE PIPE DECISION.

There seems to be a general miscon-
sception of the scope of the Supreme
Courts decision in the Addystone
Pipe case, the impression pre-
vailing that it involves a new legal
principle and is a new step toward
bringing ~capitalistic combinations un-
der control. This is an error. The de-
cision has no bearing whatever on the
general subject of trusts such as the
new industrial combinations.
The corporations involved in the
Addystone Pipe decision had entered an
agreement, in order to avoid competi-
ton, by which an equitable division
was made between themselves of the
general business. each corporation be-
ing given complete control in its re-
spective sphere of commercial influence,
within the bounds of which all the
other members of the combine agreed
not to intrude.
This agreement was held by the SUI
prems Court to be In violation Of the
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1899-12-08

Interstate Commerce law. The scope
Of the courts decision does not extend
beyond the interstate business Of the
combine, to which alone, it Is held, the
Sherman anti-trust law applies.
A precedent for this decision is found
in the decision against the transmits
souri, Traffic Association.
Had the Addystone concern been
formed on the principle of, say, the Tin
Plate Trust, so that the concerns
forming it were merged into one cor
poration instead of keeping separate
under an agreement not to do business
in each others territory, the decision of
the court might have been different, for
then no restriction of interstate COM
merce would have been involved.
At any rate, the trust principle is not
involved in this decision, which did not
extend beyond the transaction of inter-
state commerce, which was interfered
with by the agreement under which the
corporations in the Addystone concern
operated.

Of the Elkins-Scott organs it looks
very much as If it meant to deal fairly

II this is honestly done by the Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections it
will recommend that Scott be unseat-
ed, and if similar honesty dictates the
action of the Senate it will forthwith
unseat Scott. It must surely do this
if the law. the Constitution and the
precedents of a century are held in
respect in that body.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Scott properly takes
his seat on the prima facie strength
of his credentials pending the investi-
cation into his title thereto. If the
proceeding of the House in the Roberts
case, however, were based on good law,
Mr.. Scott, also, should have been
stood aside"

MCKINLEY VS.. THE FACTS.
New York World.

New York World.
In dealing with the Philippine question
Mr.. Mckinley says just what his speeches
and his policy have led the country to ex-
pect. 1t is not pleasant to say that a Pres
ident of the United States is heterogeneous
not to use a stronger word-in a message
to Congress on a question of t-ranscendant
Importance. But this must be said Of Mr..
McKinley's history of his war in the Phil
ippines. He affirms that he had every
reason to believe and still believes that
the transfer of sovereignty" from Spain
to the United States was in accordance
with the wishes of the great mass of the
Filipino people, Mr.. Mckinley owes it to
the country and to himself TO make public
his grounds for this belief. No represent
alive body of Fihpinos anywhere, so far
as the record goes, ever gave expression
to such wishes and aspirations" In an
address delivered by the Filipinos at Singa-
pore to Consul Pratt on June s, 1893, they
spoke of the programme arranged between
our Consul and Aguinaldo as designed to
secure to US our independence under the
protection of the United States" Consul
Pratt did not resent but accepted this state
ment. Even before Dewey sailed from
Hong Kong the Fifipinos there had issued
an address to their countrymen, saying,
Divine Providence is about to place in
dependence within our reach" This was
the wish and aspiration everywhere ex-
pressed at Manila and throughout the pop
ulous Island of Luzon; Freedom and in
dependence!"

HOW LONG. O, LORD.

ADTdudm LluCOlu SdIu IL WdS pOooiulC
to fool all of the people some of the
time, and some of the people all of the
time, but that all Of the people couldn't
be fooled all of the time. Which is I'M
q~uestionably true, but the present adj
ministration has evidently resolved to
fool all of the people as long as posi-
BILE and has succeeded for at least a
whole year in doing SO, with regard
to the situation in Luzon.
From the very beginning we have
been told that the rebellion" amount
ed to practically nothing; about a year
ago we were first solemnly informed
that the instruction was practically
over, and periodically since then that
Aguinaldo was on the point of surren-
der, driven to the very last ditch, his
army disheartened and scattered, there
being nothing else left for him to do
but fly. Then after the people at home
the war was over and our troops were
about ready to embark for home, the
next news flashed under the Pacific was
that another tremendous battle had
been fought and that apparently Agu-
inaldo, by some mysterious means, had
gotten his entire army together again
intact, re-occupied all the territory out
side of a few miles around Manila and
was fighting the Americans all along
the line like a tiger! Then after a
time news of more overwhelming de-
feats for the Filipinos would be fash
ed over the cable to Washington, or, at
least, such news" would be given out
from Washington, and again the Fill
pino army would be slaughtered, be
taken prisoners, have deserted, or 9TH
erwise dispersed to the four winds of
heaven-in short the same old story in
variably followed by the same old
sequel showing the enemy not dispers-
ed, nor deserted. nor captured, nor kill
ed, but more active than ever.
In the past year this process has been
repeated probably a score of times by
the news manipulators at Washington
or Manila, and the peculiar feature of
the trick is that although the same old
falsehoods are told over and over again
with scarcely any variation, the people
as a whole regularly swallow them as
the truth. The country has just been
treated to the latest desc, and as of
old has been comforting itself with the
reflection that at last the war was
really over, the Filipino army scattered,
A~guinaldo's cabinet captured and that
leader himself in hiding and about to
be captured. Now-presto!-the word
comes from Manila that the Filipino
army-again gotten together as usual
by some mysterious means-has made
a terrific onslaught on the Americans,
engaging our troops in a hard-fought
battle, while the dispatches say the end
Of the instruction is not in sight and
quote the American field officers in sup
port of this statement. Meanwhile it
is feared that American scouting part
les have been captured by the Fill
pinos!
What becomes of the stories of the
dispensing of the Filipino army, ETC.,
etc.-of Aguinaldo, with cabinet gone,
being a hunted fugitive?
Here he turns up at the head of an
army!
How long, o, Lord. how long are the
people of the United States to be fooled
as to the actual situation in the Phil
ippines?

DANGEROUS PARTISANSHlP.
FairmOnt Index,

FalrmOnt Index.
The State Journal and other Republican
papers say they can answer the Index's
query concerning the seating of Scott in
four words: He will be seated They
make no answer to the citations Of prece-
dent, of authority, of law, and of the con-
stitution. All these are minor considera-
tons in the minds of Republicans of their
kind. Let us hope that this kind is not
universal. 1t will be a sorry day for the
Republic when all the members of one
of the great parties declare that the con-
stitution and the law have lost all power
in cases where partisan advantage is to
be subserved. Let US therefore hope that
all Republicans are not like these who as
sumo to represent the party in West Vir-
ginia- These are anarchists of the worst
type. No socialist who ever raised the red
flag in Chicago or elsewhere is half as dam
gerous to society and his country as the
citizen who pretends to represent respect
ability and d~ecency, and yet who encour-
ages lawbreakers to defy the organic law
of the State and Nation, in the interest of
party. Let us give Republican Senators
credit for more decency and patriotism
than their own organs in West Virginia
seem to think they possess. Let us, at
iCdSL DSlOI6 dClIOli, COnCSNS lildl LlCS Will
be governed by some regard for the facts
and the law of the case, and not blindly
seat their man permanently despite these,
simply because he is their man, as Repub-
lean Journals think they will do. These
journals may know their men better than
we, but we are not yet prepared to admit
that no matter how UNANIMOUSLY a Repub-
lican gains the semblance of an election to
the Senate, Republican Senators will re-
fuse to inquire into his methods or heed
the protests of the citizens who petition
against his admission. To argue that no
presentation of facts and law can shake
the determination of Republican Senators
to seat their own man, is to argue that
they possess no moral courage, integrity or
honor, and no Democrat has said so harsh
a thing about them as the inference that
is to be drawn from these statements of
their own party organs in West Virginia.

The first prop has been knocked
from under the hopes of our Repub-
lican friends by the reference of the
case against Mr.. Scott to the proper

and examine all the evidence gathered
by Hon. John T. McGraw in the case.
Our friends. the enemy, were cock
slre, 1t will be remembered. that Mr..
McGraw would have no stcnding at all

would be summarily Thrown out and
not considered. The organs have been
harping on this all along in the evil
dent hope that the Republican major
ity in the Senate would take the hint
and act accordingly.
