SOLDIERS AGAINST MINERS.

Troops have been called to shoot the striking
miners in Pennsylvania. This is what we pre-
dicted. It is what we may expect, hereafter,
whenever labor asks for its rights And that is
the real reason for increasing the standing army
provided the imperialists are allowed to gov
ern this nation. The laboring man who votes
for Mckinley will have himself to blame if he
and his fellow laborers are shot down in cold
blood when they ask for simple justice.

They Want a King.

The World. Herald is in receipt of many let
ters asking for the date of the famous editorial
Of the Des Moines Globe. The first article ap'
peared in the Globe Of May 81, 1900, and was
as follows:
Now is good time to do away with
our obsolete constitution and adopt a
form of government that will be logic
al with our new expansion ideas and
will give ample protection to capital.
We should not be disgraced in the
sight of civilized nations by such
sight as the violence and killing that
accompany the operation of street cars
in St. Louis now.
A constitutional monarchy is probably
the most desirable plan that we could
now adopt. Everything is ripe for the
change. We have large army and
it can be increased under almost any
pretext without causing any alarm to
the masses. This country has been so
prosperous that the voters have lost
that spirit of patriotism and honesty
that are necessary to the successful OPP
Grafton of republics. The strong iron
hand of dicipline will have to be used
to bring masses to sense of proper
behavior.
The Des Moines Globe is an ardent supporte
of Mr.. Mckinley.
The publication of these editorials has Great
ed such stir that the Republican leaders arr
seeking to explain it away on the ground tina

MRS. LEASE A REPUBLICAN.

Mary Elizabeth Lease has gone oyer into the
Republican camp "bag and baggage" and it
reported that she will stump Nebraska and
Kansas for Mckinley. 1t might be good
plan for Populist and Democratic papers to re-
publish some of the speeches she made four
or six years ago. She might enjoy reading
them when she comes back to Kansas.
We notice that the Republican papers are not
over.joyed over this new acquisition to their
ranks.

mean white Republicans" says Bishop Turner
in the Knoxville Sentinel. "If could do it,
there is not Negro in the nation who would
vote for him. Mr.. Bryan could not render
himself more obnoxious in twenty-five years.
But l will leave this line of thought for if
were to ventlate all that is in me, would need
thirty columns of this paper. As for what is
commonly denominated imperialism, no man of
sense could endorse it. White men may en-
dorse it, but black man cannot, unless he
does it absolutely through ignorance. We
know too we'll what must be the status of ev-
erybody who has colored blood in their veins.
"Again, and finally, paralyzed as I am, and
nearly speechless, feel called upon in my de-
clning days to enter my solemn protest against
the unholy war OF conquest now being waged
by this country against the Philippines l
hold William Mckinley and his advisers re-
sponsbe for this crime of the century. These
Fiipinos are feeble band of sable patriots,
not white, On their native soil, around their
homes and the graves of their sires, maintain
ing heroic but pitifuly-unequal struggle for
their God-given rights and for their Liberties.
Mr. BRYAN says convene congress at once, and
give them their independence.
"Further, by treaty enactment, Mr.. McKin-
lev has recognized human slavery in part of
these islands, and he has got colored soldiers
there from this country, executing his diabol.
ical will. This high-handed act is violative
and subversive of the fundamental law set forth
in the Declaration of independence and the
constitution of the United States.
"And again, these Filpinos and1their Porto
Rican brethren are being taxed without repre-
sentation: the very outrage that gave birth to
the American revolution. McKinley's present
policv does not contemplate that these black
Filipinos shall ever have representation in con-
press. He means to take their country away
and denv them the humble honor of represent
ing their own people in legislature there or in
the national congress here-the very thing for
when the patriots Of 1776 fought, bled and
died to secure to their posterity. boil over
with disgust when l remember that colored
men from this country that am personally
acquainted with are fghtingl to subjugate
a people of their own color and bring them
to such degraded state. l can scarcely
keep from saying that hope the Filipinos will
wine such soldiers from the face of the earth. |
7 have as much sympathy for them as have
for thieves, rogues, cut-throats and lynchers.
Those black American soldiers have nothing
to fight for to say the least, and to 60 there
and shoot down innocent men and take the
country away from them that God gave them is
oo much for me to think about, and l will
write no more, for cannot stand it,"

the editor of the Globe is not well balanced
man. Yet the fact is that the Globe has simply
made candid statement of McKinleyism The
Globe wants king, and because it wants
king it is supporting Mckinley
In truth the Des Moines Globe has simply
stated in another form what the Army and
Navy Journal said:
The English executive is All imperial execu-
tive. The British parliament is all English
legislature. TO THE SAME SYSTEM WE
ARE COMING BY THE DECREE OF CIR
|CUMSTANCES>A AS INEVITABLE AS THAT
OF FATE. IF THIS BE IMPERIALISM,
MAKE THE MOST OF IT. So far as citizen
ship is concerned, the British empire is one,
but beyond the limits of the United Kingdom
the citizens live under rule essentially mon
archical and not restricted by the constitutional
limitations of the parliamentary system.
The Des Moines Globe bluntly says it wants
king. The Army and Navy Journal says it
wants an 'imperial executive" There is no
difference, and they represent the purpose OF
the power behind the Mckinley administration:
