The COiOred Man.

Bryan was making Il speech ut
Fargo, North Dakota, the other
day and somebody interrupted him
to ask the question, "IIow about
the negroes"
Bryan answered, lam glad you
spoke of negroes. If You will look
at the Sulu treaty You will not
have il chance to talk about the
negroes during the campaign. |
do not know of Il purer piece of
hypocrisy than the hypocrisy of
the Republican who defends the
Sulu treaty and condemns the
amendments in the southern states.
Under the Sulu treaty the flag
floats over The Sulu Sultan's pal
ace, and, under section 10, it is
provided that the slaves can buy
their liberty at the market price
when they earn enough to do so,
working at nothing Il day.
If YOU can find there is race
question in this country that will
require all the patriotism and in
tclligcnce of the people, north and
south, to solve, is it Il reason why
you should drag in another race
question! Is it reason why You
should bring into this country S.
coo, 600 brown people not to share
in the destiny of this country!
There is not Il Republican in POI
sition to defend the negro qucs-
ton. The Republican party has
taken the negro question for 30
years to an Office door and tied
him on the outside, The negro
has bestowed presidents on the
Republican party and the Repub-
lican party has given to the negro
janitorships in return"

ing that restriction, and the re-
election of Mckinley may mean
the flooding of this country with
cheap Chinese labor. The exist
cncc of such IN intention would
account for Mr.. Mckinlcy's Chi
ncsc policy. 1t should not be O.
vcrlookcd that the Democratic ma
tional platform contains this
clause: I'VE favor the continu-
ancc and strict enforcement of the
Chinese exclusion law and its APP
plicaton to the same classes of all

ing that those who are interested
in the welfare of American labor
are doing some deep thinking, tits

Mckinley and China.

lr is indeed singular that the
administration has dropped so sud
denly our late quarrel with China.
Thousands of impcrialiStS are dis
appointed. If China is to be dis
joined and cut up and parcclcd out
America wanted II Slice too. Me
kinlcy has been urged all along,
but lately he has taken his own
way, Hear this, recently sent out
from Washington City:
Mr.. Mckinlcy's extraordinary
and apparently unaccountable
friendship for China, which has
been 50 plainly shown from the
beginning of the trouble down to
his abandonment of the allies and
the order for the sending of the
American troops IN China to the
Philippines, has caused II lot of
thinking. Attention has been
called TO the fact that the Republic,
can platform failed to say II word
about the continued exclusion of
Chinese luhorcrs from the /. s..
altho it must have been well known
to the makers of that platform
that the present Chinese exclusion
law expires by limitation i'll 1902,
and that unless il is extended by
Congress our ports will then he
open to Chinese cooley lahorcrs.
1t has been noted also that the
Chinese Minister to the /. :. has
done considerable talking of late
about the probability of the III
creased friendship between his
government and ours resulting in
the removal of immigration re-
strictions. That large employers
of unskillcd labor in this country,
not to mention the sugar planters
trust of Hawaii, are anxious to See
the restrictions ON Chinese immi-
grafton removed is well known.
by putting all these things to-
gcther, Mr., Mckinley is placed in
II suspicious attitude toward Amer
lean labor, Perhaps mention of
Chinese exclusion was purpoScly
left out of the Republicans plat
form N order 10 justify the Re-
publican Congress in not renew.

with it, for the plan has been adj
vocatcd by advanced minds for II
number Of years. We can see
nothing wrong with the plan for
proportional representation and
heartily endorse it. 1t is only
coming back TO first principles /;
it is democratic, it is II plan to give
the people II chance. Hear the
following:
The reform most. needed in the
United States is that which will
give back to the whole people the
control of legislation. When once
the people are enabled to voice
their preferences rs to laws and Of
liccrs and do so voice their prefer
cnccs all reforms can be enacted
into statutes. Some plan of pro-
portional representation would aid
largely in bringing this about.
In proportional representation
there is no need for fusion. Each
party would be entitled to II mum
Der Of legislators in proportion to
the votes it east. Under the pres
cnt system in district where there
are nine representatives to elect
one party may east 400, 900 votes,
500, 900 and another BOO
600 yet the lirst-namcd party elects
all its candidates and the majority
of the people are practically dis
franchiscd. Under II system of
proportional representation the
parties would be entitled 10 four.
three and two representatives.
The plan is simple, casily-ad-
justcd and will do away with many
Of the evils which the present plan
permits. There need be no fuSions,
no deals, no combines, no suppress
sion of leaders or principles. The
reform vote will be increased be-
cause every vote will count. and
no party will be obliged to sup
press certain planks in its plat
form in order not to ALLEVIATE vot-
crS. The leading men of the par
ty will be certain of election no
matter where they live. They can
not be gcrrymandcred ont of office.

Present Day CONNER
Cia1iSn.

DAY by day the revolution in in
dustrial relations spreads and
grows more apparent. The mum
Der of people dependent on Il few
for the privilege Of existing grows
larger. The few who are being
benefited by present day CONNER
cialism are growing alarmed and
see the necessity of throwing
small sops to the masses to keep
them quiet.
1t may be interesting to cite an
incident or two in the Old World.
a cheap method TO encourage ar-
quicsccncc to present conditions is
to provide for old-agc pensions.
In other words, take ont of the la
borcr's wages Il certain per cent
and save it till he is old, and by
having the government add to this
sum II part of the taxes the labor
er has paid, try to make him think
he is being literally treated. Ger
many has 400, 600 old-age pension
crs, receiving $l3, $50, 40, Of
which 81, Poi $50 was last year
paid by the state. This is S33 to
each pcnsiOncr per year. Mark it,
isn't that great competence!
Denmark has II law somewhat
similar to this. SO has France
and Belgium. Austria and Rus
STA have old-agc insurance TO Ger
tain classes of laborcrs. So has
Roumania.
The above is merely II sop. La
Dor is left to StarNc in old age
on from 40 to GO cents IL week.
Now return TO America. What do
we do for the veteran of labor in
this country! If he is II miner we
argue that he and his family should
live ON 80 cents II day and when he
gets old and dccrcpit maybe well
find him Il place in the poor house
we know he'll have no home of
his own, for i'll his better days it
took all his wages to live.
Is the laborcr worthy of his hire!
Bryan says hc is and thus cries
out justice. The trusts, and few
and powerfully rich are going TO
hear something from labor in a.
merica during the next few years.

HnMaIOes In Australia.

Buffaloes and elephants are by no
means approaching extinction as rap
idly as is commonly supposed. I'm
mense herds of buffaloes roam about the
vast northern plains OF Australia, but
bloodthirsty blacks are also numerous
in that region, and buffalo-hunters
carry their lives in their hands. Also,
according to the latest number of the
British North Borneo Herald, large
numbers of elephants occupy the jun
giles to the south of Sandakan bay. 1t
is suggested that they could be turned
into IA valuable asset for the colony
if decoy animals were imported from
India and the natives were taught how
to construct 'kedahs," or trapping en-
closures.
