The people are not especially pleas
ed. either, with the wonderful
growth, under McKinley's admins
tration, Of those gigantic trusts and
commercial combinations Of capi-
tai which have tax en- control OF the
prime necessaries of modern life
and made them the source OF unjust
and extortionate ex-actions and
which, in exchange for favors re-
ceived, are piling-up fabulous sums
of money as corruptiOn-fund In
aid OF the reelection of those who
have placed the great agencies and
fostering powers of the Governmen
in co-partnershIp with the private
interests of those who are bent up
on the spoliation Of the masses for
the enrichment of the classes.
There is abroad in the land very
firm conviction in the minds Of the
observing and thinking people that
our popular institutions can i'll af'
ford four more years of such man
agement of public affairs as Nc
Kinley's recollection would insure.

Wants to be Judge.

Judge r. @. Rutter, of Fairfield,
is circulating among Democrats in
this district looking up fences to
the support Of his candidacy for
Common Pleas Judge, to fill the
unexpired term of Judge Slough,
deceased. Mr.. Rutter lays claim
to the nomination from the tact
that he was pro .ninent candidate
In the judicial convention four
years ago when Judge Slough aud
Judge Wright received their nomi-
nations, and that he and Hon. M.
Fl. Donahue came within few
votes of receiving the coveted goal.
He sights the fact now that Judge
Slough has served his time on the
bench; that Judge Wright has been
reelected to second term, and that
Maurice Donahue Is the nominee
for circuit Judge, and that he 10 the
only contestant In that memorable
convention who Is not as yet taken
care OF. He claims to be the log
ical judicial candidate of this dis
trict.

A Minister'S Good Work.

"I had a severe attack of bilious
collie, got bottle of Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Reme-
dy, took two doses aud was entirely
cured" says A. A. Power, of EN-
poria, Kan. "My neighbor across
the street was sick for over week,
had two or three bottles Of medicine
from the doctor. He used them for
three or four days without relief,
then called in another doctor who
treated him for some days and gave
him no relief, SO discharged him. I
went over to see him the next morn-
ing. He said his bowels were in a
terrible fix, that they had been run
ming off so long that 1t was almost
bloody fux. / asked him IL he had
tried Chamberlain Collie Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy and he said,
NO T went home and brought
him my bottle and gave him one
dose told him to take another dose
in fifteen or twenty minutes if he
did not find relief, but he took no
more and was entirely cured" For

ernment OF the people, by the peo-
pie. for the people," which should
preserve justice, insure equality
and be sufficiently strong and
stable to perform its functions ef-
fectively.
But, in these later days, the tend
ency to remove the government
away from the people more and
more, as we'll as the tendency to re-
gard lightly and brush aside easily
the sacred landmarks Of limitation
set in our Constitution, and even To
set the Constitution itself aside as
a thing Of the past, obsolete, out.of
date and inapplicable to present
conditIons-seems TO be growing
more accelerated and emphasized
day after day, week after week,
month after month and year after
year. And the manifestation OF
these tendencies has become just
ly alarming to those Of our people
who believe In constitutional gov.
ernment and are painfully con-
scious of The increasing frequency
and boldness with which its we'll
defined limitations are being ques-
toned, strained or totally disre'
garded. This tendency to remove
the government further an d
further from the people, to con
stantly minimize the force of the
peoples voice in the disposition
and management of the current af
fairs of our government and to ia.
crease and greatly magnify the
powers which those temporarily
elected to office may exercise with
out hindrance and with absolute
impunity is what is meant by i'm
perialism. We have seen very
plain manifestations OF it during
the past few m )nths, or at least
that eternal vigilance which Is the
price of liberty has become alarm
ed at the trend of current tendea-
cies In government matters.
A Democratic Republic is that
form of government in which a
elf.governing people rule, while
an Imperial Republic is that form
of elective government in which
agencies more or less Independent
of the popular will may rule--an
Empire with an elected ruler who,
once in power, may be all powerful
and largely Independent of those
who elect him, and that trend OF
events which has tendency to
change the former into the latter
and which millions OF our people
think they see manifested In the
present administrative and legis.
lative policy of our Government
has provoked that earnest protest
v hich makes such policy the para.
mount issue in the pending Presi-
Fdential contest.

Some Straws Which Show the d.
recItOn Of the Political Tide.

There are many surface-straws
which seem to indicate that the po-
litical tide is turning Bryan-ward.
OF course, il is to early to make an
accurate forecast of the result, by
States: but there are many very
gratifying indications in general.
The German Americans are pleased
at neither imperialistie tendencies
of present policies nor the attitude
of the Administration towards the
South African Republics: the Irish
Americans are not especially jubi-
liant over the manifest secret alli-
ance into which the Mckinley ad-
ministratiOn has entered with the
government Of England: the ex-
soldiers of the Union are not over
joyed at the treatment which they
have received at the hands of Nc
Kinley's pensiOn-man, H. Clay
Evans: the negroes of the country
feel that they have not been given
that consideration which they were
promised and had right to believe
they would get at the hands OF this
Administration: the honest bimetall-
lists who supported Mckinley in the
last contest, under the belief that he
was really a bimetallists and would
do all he could towards bringing
about International bimetallisEl, are
not satisfied with the bad faith and
duplicity which have been manifest
ed by the Administration In pretend
ing to favor bimetallism solely for
the purpose of gaining power and
establishing as firmly as statutes
can establish anything in this coun-
try the iniquity Of the gold standard
and there are thousands of honest,
hard-wOrking and deserving Re.
publicans In the country who feel
like resenting the fawning-favors
which Mckinley has been bestow-
ing in prsselyting spirit upon
those recalcitrant democrats who,
under the guise of opposition to free
silver, have given Mckinley tempo
rary support. Republicans claim
that the gold democrats have gOb-
bled-up about everything worth
having around the Executive De-
partm ants in Washington, and that
executive favor has discounted re-
publican loyalty.
But, in addition to all of these
favorable signs, there Ia another
consideration which is re-assurins
Ia the highest sense.
There is vast wave of popular re-
sentiment sweeping over the entire
country resentment of those ten
denotes In executive and legislative
policy which belittle the sanctity of
the landmarks of Limitation set-up
by the people in our Federal Con-
stituti0n, repudiate the traditional
policies of the Republic, mix us up
with the politics and wrangles Of
European muddles, and commit our
Government to military spirit with
u vast standing army, dependent
colonies and imperial equippaRe .

cratic majority. The absorbing
question In court circles is, who
will be the democratic nominee, for
that means, who will be Judge.
We take it by the sentiment that
comes down the valley from old
Fairfield and the favors cast on the
breezes from off the hills of Perry,
and from the pleasant mention and
good will in Hooking that General
John G.. Reeves Of Lancaster will
be the next judge elected in this
district and having served we'll his
short term as he will, his judicial
career will then be heightened in
to long term to succeed himself.
General John G Reeves has been
practicing law at the bars of this
district for more than thirty years.
He is a well known attorney of
great ability. Was prosecutor of
Fairfield in his early days and
made q record that stands out in
that great county, that the ablest
jurist Of this country may be proud
Of. His practice has been much
confined TO the intricate questions
Of corporation privileges, which
better fts him for the bench as a
dispenser of the law upon these
matters OF great moment.
This district holds in it's confines
great interests of capital invested
In mining, manufacture and agri.
culture, and 1t Is important that
the person selected to serve upon
the judicial bench should be one
qualified as an attorney and jurist.
1t seems to be almost the unani-
nous opinion of the interested
people of the district that Gen.
John G. Reeves will most ably
serve the people In this capacity.

What is Imperialis m?

Our government is based upon
the theory not only that all govern.
ments derive their just powers
from the consent of the governed,
but that those powers shall never
be separated from the people-to
the end that the working autonomy
o! our Republic may always prove
to be government of the people,
by the people, for the people," a.
happily expressed by the immortal
Lincoln in his Gettysburg speech
The jealous care of those who drew
the specifications and outlined the
charts by which our Ship OF State
was to be constructed and run was
ever exercised to prevent the pos
sibility of any function OF popular
self-gOvernment's being farsremov.
ed from the people themselves-to
prevent its being taken out OF the
hands of the people or placed be.
yOnd their control. With that end
steadfastly In view, their all con.
trolling aim was to so safeguard
every function OF the peoples gov.
ernment as 10 make ali persons,
chosen from time TO time to sd-
minister temporarily the public af.
fairs of the Republic, keenly and
Immediately responsible to the peo.
pie, whose instruments and ser.
wants they we're intended to be al
ways. The bedrock idea OF the
whole plan was firm belief that
the closer the government is kept
TO the people and the more keenly
responsible each public servant il
kept to the will OF the people, the
safer and the better will the liber-
ties and the sacred rights of the
people be preserved, and the more
Impossible and Ineffective will be
the ever-present temptation (on the
part OF those temporarily In auth.
Ority) to pervert and use the funct.
ions Of government In promoting
selfish ends, securing special privi.
leges or working out unjust and
unfair advantages. In theory at
least, therefore, We find every pub.
lie servant responsible, directly or
Indirectly, to the people. And, In
studing the d. liberatiOns In which
the Safeguards and wise- provisions
thrown by them around our gov
ernment were formed, we also find
that those unselish patriots who
planned 1t were 80 jealous about
having the peoples control over
every governmental function pre-
served in Ito entirety that every.
thing which was or Is one degree
removed from the direct control OF
the common people was and Is the
result OF cOmprOmise--not a com.
promise, however, between those
who favored marked degree OF
removal from the common people,
on the one hand, and those who
favored the most intimate and i'm
mediate responsibility TO the COM
mon people, on the other; but a
compromise between those who.
while favoring alike the most Inn
mediate responsibility Of the gov
ernment TO the people, were trying
10 accomplish three things: q agpv-
