Of the people in the employ OF the eg-

of the day, the company would extend
the closing rule to Wednesday, as the

some time Speaking of the matter
Saturday n member OF the company
said that 1t was possible that the new
rule Of three nights closing would be
made permanent. but of that more will

HE COULDN'T SWIM.

At last, Fred Funston's laurels are to be torn
from his "noble brow" A new school history
is being printed for Kansas, and in that history
was to appear an account OF Funston's "won-
derful' feat of swimming the Bagbag river, in
the Philippines, for which he received his CON-
mission as brigadier-general. When the boys
Of the Twentieth Kansas regiment found out
that this account was to go into the new histo-
ty, some of them registered kick and declare
that the account shall not 60 into the book, as
Funston did NOT swim the river; that he stated
that he couldn't swim. Ed P. Greer, who is
printing the history, has been deluged with let
tiers protesting against the printing of the &C.
count in the book.
We have talked with members of the reg-
ment, who endorse the kick made by the other
members, and insist that Funston did not swim
the Bagbag, nor auy other river. The Kansas
City Journal finally admits that Funston didn't
swim. AS he obtained his commission through
false pretense, the commission should be taken
from him and he sent home in disgrace.

THE MAIL SERVICE.

William F.. Curtis has the following to say
about the mail service, in the hicago Record:
The accuracy of the mail service of the United
States is remarkable. Last year, although over
18, 900 900 pieces were handled by the registry
department, only 7,I65 complaints were made
of missing mail. Of these, only 3S5 pieces
were finally lost. The honesty of the service
is also remarkable. During the last fiscal year,
the loss in money, from all causes, was only
about -hundredth of one per cent. That IS,
in handling SIo2, 354,579, the government,
from dishonesty, carelessness, accidents, burg
laries and from every other cause, lost only
about one per cent. for every 500. Out of
IT, 900 postmasters and $4,000 clerks and en-
ployes, only S3I were reported for delinquencies
or informalties.
It should be remembered that the mail serv
ice is socislistic. Any other department of the
government may be made as accurate and eff
cient as the postal department. If tile rail
roads, express business and telegraph lines
were owned and operated by the government,
they could be made just as accurate as the postal
department, and it would put money into the
pockets of the people; or, rather, the govern
ment would save immense sums of money
Socialism, or government ownership, is the
only solution of the whole governm entail prcb-
lem. It's coming, too, in spite of Hanna

A GOLD TRUST.

trust has been organized by the big gold
mine owners, and four men will practically
control the gold output of this world. Among
the four are John D. Rockefeller, the Standard
Oil thief, and Cecil Rhodes, the dig diamond
thief:
The United States is (" enjoying the blessings"
of the gold standard. All of our money is
based on gold. With this condition of things,
and the gold in the hands of trust, we are in
beautiful fix, aren't we? Think about it.

The President Speaks.

President Mckinley las again opened his
mouth and spoken. 1t was at dinner of high
muck a. muck Lacquer friends, in Philadelphia.
The president gave utterance to lots of nice
words that shall not Try to repeat. l will
just notice one or two thoughts.
He said, in substance, that the people shave
jected the false doctrine of class Distinction
and shave rebuked those teachings that would
destroy the faith of American manhood in Amer
lean character and American institutions"
don't like to differ from the great president,
but am going to assert that the voters, in re-
electing Mckinley, have approved Of conditions
that create class distinctions. also assert that
no opposition party taught any doctrine what
ever that would tend to weaken faith in Ameri-
can manhood, character or institutions. Did
the president aim to convey false impressions
or Is he ignorant?
Among the many things mentioned as per-
manently settled is the "authority and indie
pendence of the judiciary" The president
ought to know, but l assume h. does not, that
the question raised as to the judiciary was that
of the limit of authority and independence. IF
the judiciary is above the rights and interests
of the people, then we have unlimited
tyranny.
