Ell Paso is reaching out, says the

many good things and for anything
that she wants (exoeps the so-called
International danny we are willing and
glad to do any thing in our power to
help them get it. First, the FL Paso
chamber of commerce proposed to get
mp one Of the finest displays of msssls,
showing what this Seosion Of country
can produce In the way of minerals.
Every piece OF ore IL catalogued, with
. history OF the mine or prospect.
Ell Paso also expects to have a
United ates mint, which We hope
congress will gran, as IT will be q
great convenience to The south west.
A MonteZuma palace ia next on the
list to be erected at the expense of the
United States and Mexico, at a cost Of
about $500. 600, in which q permanent
exhibition shall be maintained of the
minerals and other valuable and our
ious things to be found in the south
west.
This would be one of the greatest
places Of interest that person crossin z
the Continent could see ON his journey
through the land. We would be pleas

republics of North America take hold

laborer is not proportionately bene-
Std


When Prick made his attack on Car
negie shrewd observers said that after a
little preliminary struggle the affair
would be hushed up By a compromise.
The country opened its eyes with
wonder over the statement that the Car
negie company was making profit Of
SAC, 100000 a year, most Of which came
to it through the operation Of the pro-
tective tariff.
Politicians also opened their eyes and
Mckinley is said to have been serious
II alarmed.
It is alleged that the president urged
a reconciliation between Prick and
Carnegie and it was highly essential
that peace should be made promptly,
for an exposure Of the way in which
the protective tariff works to enrich
the rich and to impoverish the poor
would have hurt Mckinley badly in
his presidential campaign.
1t is of little moment on what terms
the compromise was made. The signif-
icant feature is the fact that it was
made and that there was quite as much
politics as bushes in it.
However, enough has been discover
ed by the people to make the workings
Of the tariff law quite apparent.
Not since Havemeyer said that the
protective tariff was the mother Of
the trusts has such a bomb been
thrown into the republican camp as
that from the gun Of Prick aimed at
Carnegie, and carrying dismay to the
hearts Of Mckinley and his followers.

Who Gef. - 1TonsrP

Said Mr.. Mckinley at the recent Ohio
banquet in New York city, referring to
our great and prosperous trade with
foreign nations:
"We buy from all of them and sell
to all OF them, and our sales exceeded
our purchases in the past two years by
over 81, 100000"
One thousand million OF dollars
ahead on foreign business ought to
and probably does satisfy the citizen
who lives and grows fat on presidential
and administration statistics. But the
man who does not find statistics a
satisfactory table deIicacy naturally
wants to know who gets this billion Of
dollars.
Standard Oil gets 100000 per an
mum, Carnegie 100000, credit CAPT
tai, commonly known as "Eater, wild
cat" and various other appropriate
designations, get the rest of it and
leave the producer and the nation still
in debt for as much more. Whatever
is left to the farmer, the worker, the
poor, ETC., must be Immediately paid
out in taxes, the total Of which exceeds
this great and glorious prosperity by
half a billion dollars. Where is all
this money and who gets it? remains
an UnRnswerable cOnUndrUm. We
know we do not get it, for we are ship
ping more gold than we import. Mr.
McKinIey's billion of dollars gain
on foreign trade is in the same box
with his other fabricated prognostiea-
tions and BADGES of prosperity.

WAGES OF SKILLED LABOR.
Are RedIcuIOusIy Low Under Republican
RuIe-Ths News Article on Democrats
Desiring to Reduce Wages.

The GOOdland News last week pub
lished an article from the Philadelphia
Press, the Introductory paragraph of
which is here given:
Mr.. Vest of Missouri. like other free traders,
evidently thinks that wages are too high in the
United States. He has introduced a bill to
make wholesale reduction in them so far as
shipping is concerned. The bill is for free
ships or In other words to reduce wages IN all
the ship yards in the United States and In all
the industries that contribute to ship building.
Tho object of the article is to make it
appear that democrats are for low
wages and republicans for high wages.
If this were a fact, under republican
rule there should have been a large
advance. But such is not the case
according to the latest statistics. The
average daily wages Of skilled labor in
mechanical and manufacturing employ
ments is about sI.5O.
In the World Almanac for 1900, at
page 168, the following is given: SAC
cording to the census Of 1890, the num-
Der of persons engaged in manufactures
in the United States was 4,712,625; the
wages earned were, 8, 283, 216,529." Thus
the average yearly wages earned was,
S48448; the average daily wages, s1-53.
This was skilled labor ten years ago.
From the latest statistical reports for
1900, the avera &c daily wages for skill
led mechanical labor is now only S1.46,
and this under protected industries.
This report makes no allowance for
men out of employment nor for com
mon labor. The boast that protective
tariff" protects labor is false. 1t pro-
protects corporations and lets labor
look out for itself. Now along with
this remember the 100000 annual
profit Of the Carnegie Steel company,
and the s2O,OOO,OC0 quarterly dividend
Of the Standard Oil company. The
Wanted protection" Of the republican
party makes trusts possible, which in
turn make the rich richer and the
poor poorer.
About free ships; it is q fact that
American ship yards have large orders
Ia advance Of their capacity to build
them And what makes it costly to
build ships in the United States is the
rapscity Of the steel trust and not the
wages paid. Congress and the navy
department have tried to bring the
Carnegie people to terms and have
failed. The republican party is the
mother Of this and all other trusts.
The trusts pocket the profits and the

veal In var and Peace.

As an administration in war and in
peace President Mckinley has not
shown himself a strong man before the
American people. Moreover, By his
attitude regarding Porto Rico he has
brought about a breach in his party
which can hardly be healed before the
meeting OF the convention. If his
managers succeed in placating the dis
gruntIed element Of the republican
party in advance Of the convention
there remains the great mass Of the
American people outside those party
lines to be accounted for, and to these
Mr.. Mckinley stands in the light Of
q waverinR, vaciIlating executive Who
does not known his own mind, or who
is willing to surrender his honest opin-
ion at the demands Of a faction

Cleveland on Commercta1ism.

Ez-President Cleveland, in a recent
interview with New York Herald cor
respondent, said:
sour nation must better its political
life. Unless the commercialism which
is rampant in American politics at this
hour is very soon checked, and crushed
under foot, the future viii wrap the
coils Of darkness around our cherished
life, and We viii settle down to the
same dwarfed standards common
among the imperial nations Of the past
before absolute disintegration oe-

Bryan's Popularity.

Recently one Of the bOldest, shrewd-
est and best-informed republican lead
ers of the middle west said: "If the
election were to be held now, Bryan
would be the next president Of the
United States"
This is undoubtedly true, but there
need be no Limitation as to the time
when the election should be held.
Bryan will be elected next November,
for he has steadily grown in public
esteem since his candidacy in 1896, and
Mckinley has fallen greatly in popu-
lerity.
On the Porto Rican issue Mckinley
will lose all the states in the middle
west and his strength among the people
Of the east has been badly shaken.
Speaking of present conditions, the
Washington correspondent Of the New
York Evening Post says:
son the Porto Rican tariff issue the
republicans would lose Indiana, and
not only Indiana, but also Illinois.
Running on that platform, Mckinley
would find the chances against him in
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
I think that Ohio would be a doubtful
state on that issue"
As an Illustration Of the change Of
sentiment regarding Mckinley and
Bryan since 1886, the correspondent
mentioned two business men Of the
first rank in Chicago whose name are
we'll known in the commercial world.
Both Of these men were large contrib
utors to the republican campaign fund
four years ago. Both Of them tell me, t"
he says, shat they will not give a cent
to the republicans this year, but that
all they have to contribute will 60 to
the Bryan campaign fund.-
1t is no wonder the administration
forces are panic stricken over the mag
nitude Of the Porto Rican issue. 1t is
not q mere matter of a few pennies
extra taxation, but of the fundamental
principles Of American government.
1t has taken hold Of the people as
nothing since the slavery issue.
On all the issues before the country
at the present time William ]. Bryan
stands as the champion OF the people
and the people know and appreciate
this fact.
He opposes the oppressive trusts
fsvors free trade for Porto Rico, de-
nounees imperialism, stands fearlessly
in favor Of bimetallism.
On these issues be viii make his
appeal to the people next November
ana the response viii be his election as
president Of the United Ststes.-Chi-
