Colonel Birch tolls in Plattshu<R pauM
O. the following conversation he had %
yuars ago with Colonel Vincent Marmar
duke, and Its application to present con0
lions Is such that we give 1t to the public.
Every Missourlan knows that Oolousl
Marmaduke, like his brother, was q d
cided Confederate, and during the war be
was the bearer of dispatches from Nj.
Davis to Mr.. Mason, who represented khS.
southern Confederacy in England. Mar.
maduke says thst one evening Mr.. MAsop
said to him:
make . speech tonight in the house oi
commons, and think 1t would be to your
pleasure and interest to 60 down to hsak
him."
1t will bo remembered that at that day
MIR. Bright was the most conspicuous ng.
ure in England. Marmaduke went, and
during his speech Marmaduke says thAa
Bright stopped, and, changing his line of
remarks, said, Mr.. Speaker. II our kins-
folk on the other side Of the Atlantic ~.

back together In peace, in 40 years tAsN

The incidence of indirect taxation
If often curious and not infrequently
wicked in its effects. The profits made
by Carnegie, Prick and their associ-
ates, amounting to $46.OOO,000 in the
ast two years are examples. Though
this astonishing sum Of money was
collected from the people Of the
United States. not cent of it went
into the national treasury. Carnegie
and his accessories pocketed it all.
McKinley's belief that the tariff is not
a tax except upon the foreigner to the
contrary Notwithstanding. AS most of
this huge sum was extorted from the
people by adding unduly to the price of
structural iron and steel, it Is not
difficult roughly to follow its burden
to the end Most of the product went
into Office buildings in the larger
cities. Their cost being enhanced
just so much. the annual rents de-
manded and obtained by their owners
are higher than they could otherwise
be by an amount equal yearly to the
interest on the increased cost.-The
Public.

1t Is to be read in the papers Of the
day that the economic saving already
effected by the trusts In the United
States equals $6,OOO,OOO daily. In that
form, the statement seems to imply
that the people of the country are
growing rich at most rapid rate.
since $6,O000OO saved usually means
$6,00O00O earned. But in this case,
unfortunately, that is exactly what
the statement does not mean. The
words economic saving" signify the
labor has been dispensed with. With
natural opportunities for employment
in other directions restricted, that kind
of saving implies heavy loss to the
working people. Incidentally, too, 1t
would mean that the producers of
America have home market of enor-
mously less value. AS the home mar
ket is averred to be worth more than
any foreign market, and Is certainly
worth vastly more than any possible
tropical market, 1t seems that present
economic saving" and eventual econ
omic loss may come to much the same
thing. Possibly this is one of the in
stances in which trade follows the
hag-downward.

Eggs without Shells.

In the report of the, trade of Italy
for the years 1898 and 1899, by Sir
George Bonham, secretary to her ma
jesty's embassy at Rome, there is an
interesting paragraph describing the
system adopted for the expectation of
eggs to England for pastry. The she'll
is removed, and the interior of the
egg-white and yolk together-is pack
ed in air-tight vessels or drums con-
tanning each 1000 eggs. Great care is
taken to ensure the eggs being fresh,
and to exclude the air, as one bad egg
spoils all the remainder, and renders
the consignment unstable. The new
system has the advantage Of removing
the risk Of breakage, and is also pre-
ferred by the pastry cook for whose
use they are intended. AS to the ex-
tent of the trade in eggs, the report
mentions that in 1897 Russia exported
to England over 354,000,0 00.-Mark
Lane Express.

Prosperity.

The Continental Clothing company
of this city has climbed the golden
stairs. This was a large and infuen-
tial business house. The cause of the
failure probably is that the people OF
Omaha have had to pay so much more
for rent, ice, groceries and flour than
they paid year ago that they have
no money left to buy clothing. 1t will
he recollected that in order to support
the prosperity boom the price Of nee
essaries has been advanced 25 per
cent, but alas! the price of men re-
Minis exactly where 1t was last year.
The writer heard four-year-old kid
complaining bitterly because paper
dolls were five cents apiece higher
than they were year ago. The babies
must have their dolls even though
the old man goes without summer
coat. Hence the vanishing profits OF
the clothing business.

Oswald Ottendorfer of the Stats Eel

party in power has not kept faith with

did not bargain for the gangrene oil

the military rule and civil ruin oil
Porto Rico. They did not bargain for
the useless war in the Philippines OF

Jpn THE pUTcHI"

A significant event as to the hostile
attitude of the Republican party to re-
publics was the almost unanimous re-
lection Of resolution of sympathy for
the Beers by the Illinois Republican
Convention. Even the rejection was
less significant than the manner Of 1t.
Colonel John F. Finnerty, Of the Chi
cago Citizen, an Irish paper, wrote
the resolution. w. H. Curran says
that when he introduced that resolu-
ton in the committee Of which Con-
gresham A. ]. Hopkins was chair
man, they nearly dropped dead; Hop
kins tried to choke me down. but l
made them vote; the vote was TWEEN
ty-one to one against the resolution; !
was the one"
Afterward Justice Miles Kehoe, Of
Chicago, sprung them on the conven-
ton, the chairman, not knowing what
he wanted, giving him the floor where
upon Hopkins whispered to the chair
man to deny him the floor, but 1t was
too late, and Kehoe, disregarding in
terruptions, read the resolutions. A
delegate from Representative Cannon's
district, shouted: oh the Dutch;
what have they got to do with us?"
Then there were cries of Shut up,
Kehoe," Throw him out" etc., but
Kehoe has a stentorian voice and
completed the reading, although en-
ragged delegates on the floor tried to
drag him forcibly from his place. L..
P. Wolfe, editor of German paper,
rushed down the aisle urging Chair
man Martin B. Madden "for Gods sake
to pass these resolutions" though
Kehoe was a id fool for intro.
ducing them" as If not passed ut Will
cost 100000 German Republican votes"
They were nevertheless laid upon the
table by an almost unanimous vote.
Now for the representative character,
in the Republican councils Of that con-
vention. Among those present and
participant were six members Of the
National House of Representatives,
one Senator and nine other Federal
officeholders. The attitude Of that con-
vention is therefore type OF the posi-
ton of Republican politicians through
out the United States-one OF hostility
to republics, freedom and home rule,
and in behalf Of empires, constraint
and Capitalization.

Blessed Liberty.

General Macarthur, as represen-
tative of President Mckinley. offers
to the Filipinos exceedingly liberal
terms Of peace. He will give them
liberty in everything except the right
of trial by jury and the right to bear
arms. 1t would be blessed liberty
that debarred them from a fair trial
and then took away their guns, sc
that they could not defend their
rights. Why, the next day after the
battle of Bunker Hill King George
would have been the happiest man
in Christendom If he could have made
peace with the Americans on the same
terms. When the Republican politi-
clans reach hades we have no doubt
but that his Satanic majesty will al
low them perfect liberty except in the
trifing exceptions of fresh air and
cold water.
