SPOONER FOR PRESIDENT.

The following dispatch from
Washington appeared in the daily
papers last week from Washington:
In an interview with the CORE
spondent of an eastern paper Rep
resentative Jenkins said Wisconsin
will in 1900 offer Senator John c..
Spooner as a candidate for the pres
iGency. Presidential timber is not
abundant and the people demand a
nan who has been tried, Que who
has had experience in public affairs
and demonstrated his fitness for the
high office. Such a man is John c.
Spooner, and in my opinion he will
be the standard bearer in 1900. Mr.
Spooner has exceptional qualifica-
tions and is one of the cleanest men
in public life. By the time Mr. Nc
Kirley has served his second term.
If he succeeds himself, Senator
Allison of Iowa, who has for years
been presidential candidate, will
be to old, while the Wisconsin man
will be in the prime of life His rec
ord on all the great questions of the
dav need not be outlined. 1t stands
for itself. He will be the logical
candidate when the time comes.
The above will find hearty sym
patty throughout Wisconsin, and all
people would gladly endorse Wiscon-
sons 'Iavorite som for the presi-
dency.

MARK Hanna has really said some
thing good, and that was in his
speech before the Ohio state conven-
tion a week ago Hanna made a
great speech, and the people and the
newspapers have commented upon it
a great deal. AS time rolls on peo-
pie are beginning to believe that Han
ma is quite a fellow after all, and
that he has a good deal of ability
along with his millions.

For "a season Of unparalleled pros
perfty", there is a deal of trouble
with the laboring man. Strikes in
the north, strikes in the south, strikes
in the east, strikes in the west-every-
where strikes. Must be prosperity
like lightning-hits mighty few
places. Must be, however, there is
prosperity-Hanna says so, and the
republican national committee saws
it's Unparalleled Prosperity. If the
price of wheat, and corn, and spuds,
and good hard muscle, and working
ability, were at premium then, in
deed, there would be prosperity. But
the laboring man now is 'wuss off !"
than he ever was, having nothing to
look forward to. The money man
corners" the necessaries of life.
then sells it at triple its cost, at the
same time employing the cheapest
labor. His Golfers fill, his tastes
are gratified; but the people file
along the lane of continual poverty,
with unsatisfed hunger. Pure re-

DR. j. Kinyoun, the federal officer
at the port of San Francisco, has
placed the state of California under
quarantine. Railroad and steam
ship companies have been notified
not to carry passengers out of the
state unless the holders of tickets are
provided with a certificate of health
from the marine hospital service.
Great indignation is felt by mer-
chants and state officials and there
is talk of having DR.. Kinyoun with

silver party in control while longer
in this state the debt of Idaho
will be wiped out entirely. All
the run ming expenses, all the old
floating debt and part of the bond

nearly four years ago. Isn't it a
sufficient endorsement and argument
that they ought to be kept in power?

Republican newspapers make {

Republican newspapers make q
great deal OF fun OF the Declaration
of Independence these days. They
consider it an obsolete document, the
incoherent utterances of fogies. They
jest about "the consent of the gov
erned, even as the court fool of
King George is said to have done.
This shows how far they have strayed
from American principles. 1t Is
shown how completely Hanna has
weaned Lincoln's followers away from
him. Lincoln said: "Let every Am
ericau remember that to violate the
Declaration OF Independence Is to
trample on the blood of his father
and to tear the charter of his own and
his childrens liberty. Salt Lake

The republicans who have been
thinking lately are not so sanguine
now as they were short time ago.
Things are beginning to shape and
democratic hopes are brighter now
than at any other time since 1896.
The people are waking to the true
industrial situation and need but
little persuasion to get them on the
right road. They realize that in the
democracy lies the only hope of the
masses for relief.

lican party and the second that of
the democratic party; but their in
completeness encourages us to under
take the task of filling them out We
therefore take the liberty of suggest
ing that the republican platform
should read as follows:
We indorse the system of double
taxation imposed by a free govern
ment on the slaves of Porto Rico.
We rejoice in the ship subsidy
steal to which the administration is
committed.
We glory in the rapdity with
which our president can change his
mind.
We are proud of the Hon. Mark
Hanna and all his works.
We heartily support such pure and
beauteous patriots as Tom Plat of
New York, Matt Quay of Pennsyl
vania, and Steve Elkins of West Vir-
ginia.
We entrust the enforcement of the
civil service law to its enemies with
the assurance that they can prove
that step backward Is a step for
ward or vice versa, as the climate
may require.
We commend Sampson, Otis, AL
ger, Eagan and others to the tender
consideration of their countrymen.
The democratic platform, when
filed out, will read as follows:
We repudiate the idea that this is
a government of trusts, for trusts, by
trusts.
We mourn the necessity which
compels the Hon. VIM. Mckinley to
eat his own words as a steady diet.
We decry the doctrine that we are
authorized to tax people who do not
live in the territory of the United
States.
We are ashamed Of the fact that
the people of Porto Rico are denied
the privileges of American citizens,
while subject to a double taxation
imposed by this government.
We condemn the manner in which
the Hon. Mark Hanna is running the
affairs of the government.
We denounce a system Of protec-
ton which protects only the million
aire and compels the poor man to
hustle for the privileges of remain
ing alive.
We disavow the latest republican
beatitude, BLESSED are the trust
makers, for they shall inherit the
earth.
1t is well enough to have these
platforms in their completed form,
you know, even if we do have to add |
to the confusion of paper which we
esteem as highly as we do the Phila-
delphia Press. Memphis Appeal.

1t is certainly gratifying to the
leaders of democracy to see the
eastern democrats lining up for w.
J. Bryan. The result in the East
will be different than it was in 1896,
and this is what is now troubling the
other fellows very much. They
really don't know how to meet the
new condition.

The politicians are the best fellows
in the world these days. They are so
social and in every way agreeable.
They are even willing to fix up their
own political fences without any
great degree of trouble to their
friends-about campaign time. This
political business Is really funny
thing, and no mistake.

The awful plague continues in
India, and the gold standard remains
intact, throwing its mantle of ruin
and misery over the natives of that
land that is now in the clutches of
the British empire. The Indians are
starving by thousands and there is
no immediate prospect Of abatement
of the woeful wave OF devastation
and ruin.

Helen Gould recently paid visit to
Berea College, in the backwoods of Ken
tucky. While she was there she was ia
ken on trip into Jackson county to see
for herself what the condition Of the peo-
pie is. The trip had to be made partly
on horseback, owing to the absence of
roads. There is not railroad nor even a
telegraph line in the county. The col.
iege was founded to afford educational
facilities Tor those people, and it is said
Miss Gould has added handsome sum to

badly needed there, but a people who
