MT, bryan shlu at Topeka: LII
1896 the populists united with the
democrats in opposing the trusts,
although the question at the time
appeared like cloud scarcely larger
than mans hand. Today that
cloud we'll nigh overspreads the in
dustrial sky. The farmer does not
participate in the profits of any
trust, but he sorely feels the burden
of thom all. He is dependent up
on the seasons for his income.
When he plants his crop he knows
not whether it will be blessed with
rain or blighted with drought; he
knows not whether wind will blow
it down or hail destroy it, or insects
devour it, and the price of his crop
is as uncertain MS the quantity.
eff private monopoly can sus-
pend production and fix the price
of raw material as we'll as the price
of the finished product the farmer,
powerless to protect himself when
he sells, is plundered when he pur-
ohases. Can any farmer hesitate
to throw the influence of his ballot
upon the side of those who desire
to protect the public at large from
monopolies2
"The fact that the trusts support
the republican party ought to be
sufficient proof that they expect
protection from it. The republi-
can party cannot be relied upon to
extinguish the trusts SO long as it
draws it's campaign contributions
from their OVERLOOKING vaults"
Unwittingly in his Asbury Park
speech Mark Hanna highly COM
plim ented his political antagonists.
He said: 1--WE have a never-sleep-
ing enemy in the Democratic
party" Eternal vigilance is the
price of liberty.

The alleged plot as assassinate
President Mckinley turns out to
be the ordinary yellow journal
sensationalism, backed up by the
industrious efforts of fake detect
ives to create some excitement and
advertise themselves. The ar
rested Italians are perhaps bad
men, though Investigations dis
close nothing except that they are
the ordinary pauper immigrants.
Like thousands of others they wore
forced by poverty and hardships,
the outgrowth of the form of
of government under which they
lived, to seek bone in other lands,
and they come to this country.
Being without friends they are
prohibited from landing on our
shores, and they must be deported
unless they can give bond for their
good behavior and that they will
not become public charges. Such
sensationalism avails nothing eX-
cept to advertise the wise acres who
have discovered a mares nest, and
seek to set the world afire.

Hunttngton's Advice to Young
Men

Men
"Appreciate the value of today.
That's my advice TO young men,"
the great railway king once said, ac-
cording to the Chicago Times,
Herald. at has been my rule
through life-I am nearing the
century mark now-not to look
forward, for the future is a blank.
Today is the all-important issue
1 have never gone against the tide
nor worried while my schemes
were maturing. A farmer sows a
field of wheat. To worry over it
would merely sap his energy. The
wheat requires his attentions at
the harvest.
"When I was boy on my
fathers farm in Connecticut L
worked hard, utilizing every
moment, for there was plenty to
do. But if 1 had any spare time L
did chores for the neighbors. L
never wanted for anything 1
needed! / always got it. But
many buy things they don't need
When 1 went to New York in
1886 I had quite sum of money,
the result of my savings, judicious
investments, aud little tradings in
the neighborhood.
SS99The great secret of success is
laying by nest egg, and adding
to your little store, never spending
more than you make and being
strictly economical. Again young
man should command what he is
worth and always endeavor to bet
ter himself. 1 was my own mas
ter since / was ID years old, l
have a hundred thousand people in
my employ in different parts of
the world at the same time In
my mercantile life / have noticed
the man who arrives at his post on
time and not one minute earlierand
who leaves on the minute and not
one second later. He does not do
more than he has to do, and does
not do it we'll. Then there is the
man who arrives ahead of time.
and works late if need be. He
takes an interest in his work and
is anxious to be advanced. / have
always lived within my means,
and always strived for advance
ment.

Committed to Trust domination.
st. Louis Republic.
The Republican party is com
mitted irrevocably to the DONNA
ton of the trusts, the most evil in
huence that has ever developed in
American life. Mr.. Mckinley,
elected in 1896 through the moral
and financial support of the trusts,
is afraid to move one step in new
direction without eerust sanction.
Mark Hanna, who controls his
every act, was placed in public life
by the trusts for that express pur-
pose ard to manage the Republi-
can party in the sole interests of
the trusts. Hanna can transform
McKinley's entire spinal column to
yielding mushiness with one touch
of his fat forefnger.
Boosted Prosperity Has Dis
appeared.
New York Evening Post
A rise in the stock market in the
face of large exports of gold is an
unwonted phenomenon, but tits
explainable by the fact of dull
ness in the money market SO ex-
IRENE that an expulsion of part
of our surplus capital is felt as a
relief. Further evidence is found
in the fact that the entire British
loan was oversubsoibed in this
market, and that the large sub,
scribers were allotted only one
half of their subscriptions, the
smaller ones getting about 60 per
cent.
The truth must be acknowledged
that business is not good, and that
the boosted prosperity which was
to carry the Republicans to an
easy victory this year has disap-
peared. It may reappear in the
early autumn-we are inclined to
think that it will-but for the time
being stagnation exists. Manu-
facturers are running on half time,
or closing temporarily, in order to
work off surplus products, and
perhaps to stave off disputes about
wages, Some part of this stagna-
ton. is due to the political cam
paign itself. a presidential year is
always relatively dull year. Yet
this summer is duller than the cor.
responding period of 1896, al
though The danger arising from
currency madness was greater
than than it is now, Probably the
inevitable reaction from the trem'
endous speculation of the early
part of 1899 has come somewhat
sooner than it waa expected, but
fortunately, it was not ushered in
by money panic. If this is the
true explanation the reaction must
work it's own cure. Nobody can
do anything about it. Things
must take their own course.
