THE SHAME or 1T.


The late election demonstrates only
one thing, and that is the omnipotent
power of money. Tt had its grasp
upon the people and it made them
perform its will Some of the most
prominent newspapers in the United
States were foremost advocates of the
gold standard and the danger of add
ing to the primary money of this
country because they had 20 be that
way. For instance, the Courier-Jour-
nal of Kentucky, we understand, has
a great bonded indebtedness which is
owed in London. We understand the
Omaha Zee is involved the same way;
that the Pioneer Press is involved
the same way; that the Portland Ore
gonian is thus involved, and they are
but samples. The New York World
is merely the agent Of the gold power
in America. Harper's Weekly has its
editorials dictated from the counting
room. The New York Evening Post
is but the organ of English syndi-
Gates in this country. The decent pa
Pers of New England are but organs
of the creditor class of that region,
and the shame Of the. campaign is
upon that gold press, because they
kept from the people the truth. They
have raised up terrors which were
imaginary in order to brighten the
common people. Some of them have
sold out bodily to advocate the gold
cause. We blame them more than
we do the orators who have been la
boring in the same service all sum-
mez, because the majority of the ora
tors have known no better. Take a
b1atherskite like Bourke Cochran. His
opinions are not worth a penny on
any subject, but he can talk and
round his periods in a way which
sound as though there might be be-
mind them little argument. Hon.
Thomas Reed is confessedly not big
enough to get out from under his en-
vironments, while such men as Sher-
man, Bayard and Boutwell, are but
carrying out a contract which they
made a quarter of a century ago. The
verdict of history will be that in the
campaigT of 1895, the intelligence
OF the = rican people was not suf-
ficient to Ineet and roll back the cor
rupt power and influence of money,
and that the people were beguiled
into a course which gave to the
money power the absolute control of
the country, and that this was in a
great measure due to a bought or
mortgaged press.-Salt Lake Tribune,
Nov 5, 1896

CARNEGIE'S FLOP.

Especial Correspondence
washington, Oct. 2S.-AndreW Carne-
Sle is hot supporter of Mr.. Mckinley
There was at one time some danger
that he might favor Mr.. Bryan. on
the nth of February, 1900 he gave the
New York World the following state
uent of his views on the Philippine
Wa:
The Philippine burden is not charge
able to war. This is the presidents
own Pandora box, his New Years gift
to his country. for which he alone is
responsible. Neither congress nor the
people had any voice in the matter.
But one need not wonder why he should
now attempt to evade the responsible
lty. since he tells us that every red
drop. whether from the veins of an
american soldier or a misguided FIJI
lplno, is anguish to his heart His
conscience smiteS him. No wonder.
The guilty Macbeth also cried out.
I hou canst not say I did it Whether
the acquisition of the Philippines was
wise or foolish, they are upon our
handS. not by war. but by the presi-
dent S own act, and he had better stand
up Ike q man and assume the respOn-
slbility. asking his cOuntrymen to for
give his mistake if he now sees he has
made one"
Now he swallows Mckinley. Phifip-
pines and all He illustrates the dec
Iaratlon in the Good Book that il is
harder for a camel to go through the
eye of a needle than for rich men Of
the Carnegie type to enter into the
kingdom of heaven.

true one) offered by the English papers
and politicians was that the English
wOrkingmen, who had just come into
the suffrage, failed to see where they
would come in. under the splendid
schemes OF empire inaugurated by Bea-
consfield. They realized that If Eng
land proceeded to the conquest of
southwestern Asia they would be re-
quired to furnish the blood, the Drawn
and the treasure to accomplish it, while
the sons of the rich and titled would
reap the glory and profits.
The wOrkingmen of this country are
all intelligent enough to see that we
cannot carry on an expensive and in
terminable war 5000 miles from home
without paying the price: that great
military and naval establishments in
the far east mean taxes, and heavy
taxes. laid not upon the property of the
country, like our state taxes. but upon
consumption No one is so ignorant. I
suppose, as to believe for an instant
that under the present regime any re-
lief can be expected by an income tax.
by which the wealthy would share the
burden, which must be a tax of from
$40 to SIS annually upon the average
family, for an indefinite period, to say
nothing of the bodies of their sons and
brothers rotting in tropical swamps
and lagOons. If those who must bear
the burden should. as the English
workingmen did, deem the luxury too
expensive, there may be surprises for
us when the votes are counted.
If. on the other hand. our working
men shall think the glory of pursuing
ragged FflipinOs through the jungIeS
and killing ten OF even fifty of them 20

shall continue cur glorious career, and
