off their proposed tariff and admitted
that 10 per cent would be enough,

SOME people appear to be surprised
that the world did not conhagrate the
week Rev. Sheldon run the Topeka Cap
ital, They wele foolish. The paper was
butchered out Of all comlness from a
mechanical view. 1t Is also similarly
butchered from a financial view, or
rather would be the second week.
All ads. run were of non paying
class, all punched together. However
the editorial tone of the paper was con-
sistent and in many respects good, 1t
was as might be expected against the
liquor traffic. 1t was also against the
barbarity of war and Imperialism. 1t
is for charity. What was probably a
surprise to most people was that it
openly espoused the cause of socialism
Christian socialism. In fact, in all
essentials 1t was humane before every
thing else and was a very good popu-
list paper But it was not much of a
Newspaper. 1t was more of a maya
zine in makeup. 1t was about such
paper as the RAMS Horn, except a
daily instead of weekly publication.
We are of the opinion that Rev. Shell
don is at heart philanthropist and
good man. His paper showsit. One
of the best evidences of it is that the
pharasees, the time-servers, canting,
ranting solemns in his profession,
who assume to be "holier than thou"
and have surveyed with geometric
eXactness the way to salvation, are
generally denoancing him. They
think they are smart, but they are
green-wth envy.

A DANGEROUS INNOVATION.

Is regarded by many thoughtful
men as a dangerous development OF
state socialism. 1t is wonderfully con
Venient thing for great masses Of the
people, hence 1t Is universally popular.
1t is carried on with such enlightened
skill, such diligent enterprise, and
such marvellous success by the depart
ment officials who superlntend its oper-
ations and by the local postmasters and
clerks who directly conduct them that
one who looks only on the surface sees
everything to praise and nothing to
condemn, E, The supposed success of
the money-order system has appar-
emily stimulated u demand for extern
slons Of governmental administration
into similar and even more doubtful
fields, Aside from propositions Of
government ownership Of railroads and
for the absorption Of some great manu-
featuring enterprises as an alleged
remedy for trust" despotlsm, neither
Of which has as yet assumed visible,
concrete form, there are at least two
measures which are being vigorously
pressed, both Of them subjects of many
bills introduced at each succeeding ses-
sion of Congress. These measures are
the establishment OF postal savings
banks and postal telegraphs.'
Thus while tacitly admitting the
great practical success of the most
socialistic thing in the United States
government, here it is opposed be-
cause it is opposed to a pet theory.
Yet you talk five minutes with one of
these wise men and you will find they
