1t would obviously be most i'll
advised for Congress formally to
express sympathy with either par

talistic organs"
Speaking of Senator Mason's
resolution expressing sympathy
with the Beers. OF Russian des-
potism in Finland they say: "To
protest against it would simply
render the resentment of Russia
and England and do the Firms and
Beers no good" This is not the
spirit in which Daniel Webster
and Henry Clay expressed them
selves many years ago when our
country was young and feeble, but
when the love of freedom was
verile and strong. Not too often
can the prophet words of the mar
tyed Lincoln be repeated:
destroy the spirit which prizes
liberty as the heritage of ali men,
in all lands everywhere, and you
have planted the seeds of despo-
tlsm at your own door,"
The Boer Republics of South AZ
RIGA was the embodiment of the
best manhood in the world today.
They have learned the truth which
alone can make them free, and the
world-robber England can never
subdue them. They have hurled
defiance at Britain like our Pat
rick Henry did of old, and with
their little army they have fought
battles that will astonish the world
when the truth is known; they will
and must be free.
Let not the fundamental princi-
Piles of free people be forgotten
or engulphed in the onsweeping
tide of commercialism and greed.
The American people must prize
the spirit of liberty. They must
cherish it above gold, or acres, or
mighty friendships. To qualify
our allegiance to the principles
for which our republic stands, on
which it has grown great, pros
porous, happy and respected, is to
pave the pathway to their renun-
citation. To hesitate to boldly and
openly proclaim our steadfastness
to right, our sympathy for the OPP
pressed, our hopes for the down
trodden, and our condemnation of
the despot--to do this is to equiv
ocate with our principles and to
desert our standard.
We believe the United States
did right in their infancy when
they officially expressed sympathy
for the Greeks who fought for lib
erty; we believe the United States
did right when they expressed
sympathy for the Cubians; did
right even when they promised the
Cuban people their freedom, even
at the price of'war. In doing these
things our country was true to its
trust, its principles, its soldiers
and sailors who died for liberty.
Its action in each instance won for
it. the increased respectfrom even
monarch and courtier; deeper
love and admiration from men
who believe in the doctrine of the
immortal Jefferson and of Raus-
seau. To do what is right, to do
what is noble and lofty, to live
true to principle, is no more "ill
advised" in nation than an indi-

of western horses at Laramie, Wy,
and shipped them to this place yester-
day, sending a "hobo" through with
with them. The horses were put i'm
the Stock Yards here under the charge
of Jerome Alexander, Supt of the
Yards, and the "hobo" went up town
and loaded up with "booze," and du
ring the afternoon he sold several of
the horses to different parties in this
city, by representing to them that he
had the horses here for sale. From
each purchaser he demanded cash
payment of from three to five dollars.
Yesterday evening when the victims
went to the stock yards after their hor-
ses they were informed by Mr.. Alex
ander that the horses did not belong to
the hobo" and that he had no right to
sell them, and of course refused to
give them up. The victims left the
yards poorer, but conslderbly wiser
men. The "hobo" left town with the
money early in the afternoon
