Democratic Hypocrisy.

The Republican party has met the
Demo-PoDulist party on every issue,
and crushed it. The paramountcy of
imperialism" proved to be nothing but
i "broomstick ghost" and Bryan was
compelled to shift his paramount issue
to trusts. There are trusts and trusts,
but the Bryan Democracy makes no
distinction. In another column we pub
lish list OF 4 few Democratic trusts
of the country-thlrty-sev price fixing
combinations, with IN aggregate capt.
Utilization of sl.093. SSl,353, all Of which
have prospcrcd ard waxcd fat during
the years Of Democratic rule. All of
them we're organized under q Demo-
cratic administration.
Besides having opportunities when
they were In power the Democracy re-
fused last June to vote for constitu-
tional amendment that would have set
tied the matter. They;dtA'hot; want 1t

December 4, 1899. President Mckinley
called pointed attention TO the import

ditlons OF trade amUEg our citizens, to

That suggestion was carrte1tbht by the
judiciary committee of the house OF rep

brought before that body Joint rcsolu-
ton providing for, IA constitutional
amendment which gave Congress power
TO regulate trusts. What happened?
Only 1--WE Democrats voted for II, while
practically every Republican In the
house voted for the measure. As It re-
qulrcd two-,hlrds vote. the Democrats
were strong CROUCH TO defeat It..
Two other brief chapters IN the his
tory Of the Fifty-sixthCongrcas close
the record OF the Democratic party In
regard to their alleged hostility to
trusts. First, the fact that Senator
Jones. OF Arltansas, the chairman OF the
Democratic rational committee. offered
In the senate IN amendment to the Por-
- Rlcun act providing for the rrpuy-
ment OF duties on articles imported
from por,o Rico since the occupancy by

Unfinished Business.

The Popullst convention which met
In Sioux Falls. South Dakota, prior to
the Kansas City Bryan Democracy con-
vention, nominated Bryan and Towne
Both conventions declared for free sill
yer. but the Bryan Democracy in the
hope of catching some of the old line
Democrats who renowned Organism in
1896, discarded Towne. who was Bryan's
choice, and tackled Stevenson onto the
ticket.
Mr.. Towne is now supporting the
Kansas City nominee. and the other day
In San Francisco he made this asser-
ton: I'VE are still discussing the issues
Of the campaign Of 1896 because tho
campaign of 1900 began four years ago.
I have been telling the people of Cali
fornia during the past week that the
campaign of 1900 Is the campaign of
1896 under the head OF unfinished bust
ness" .E
That unfinished business is the fatu-
Gus adherence to the free and unlimited
coinage OF silver. The Demo- Populists
will never loosen their hold on that con-
tentlon.

the United s.ates-a proposition which,
1t was clearly shown would have re-
suited in the payment OF about S1,5O0.0OO
to the Sugar trust; while Representa-
tive Richardson, the leader Of the Dem
ocratic side of the house and chairman
Of the Democratic congressional com
mittee, offered In that body resolution
admitting free OF duty sugar from Porto
Rico and Cuba. which. 1t is conceded,
would have been equivalent to present.
Ing the Sugar trust with about sl6,0OO.-
900 annually.
After q recital of these facts how can
the intelligent voter be fooled by the
hyPocritical cry Of Bryan and his CO.
horts against the alleged evils they re-
fused to remedy? Many Of the indus
trial combinations do not, however,
come under the head Of so-called trusts.
This was ably explained in the speech
of Mr.. Charles R. Flint, Of New York,
to the Illinois Manufacturers Assocla-
ton, at Chicago, last Tuesday evening,
when he said: IS
"A combination oflabor is a trades unlon:
combination Of intelligence university;
combination of money n bank: an Indus
trial combination Is combination of
labor. intelligence and money. popularity
cldent with civilization. Savnges have
little power to combine, because combina-
ton depends on trust in our fellow man,
and In primitive life 1t is fear that rules.
In thn IHt Tow, ~ &J,,,. al
OF the first steps was to subdivide produce

products. Later. those engaged in the
same trade formed partnerships: then cor

Against this march OF Industrial pro-
eress there have always tcen those, who.

teal favor by opposing progress, by en-
dcavorlng TO prevent the NATURAL and mu-
tually beneficial, corporation between

Charles II, and the king and council were
pet!tloncd to decree that No public coach
should be permitted to have more thun

tolical record read like prophecy: 1t Is not
impossible that our descendants, when
they read OF the hostility offered by cupid
lty and prejudice to the improvements OF
the nineteenth century, may smile In their
turn ~

trusts-with an aggregate capital Of
more than 81 .0oO, 900, 900, all Of which

posed and misunderstanding one to
eight years Of Democratic rule. Yet,
Mr.. Bryan has the impudence to tell the
American people that trusts are foster
ed by the Republican party and fought
to the death by the Democracy.
The dates above given prove that the
trusts which touch most directly the
pockets Of the people-such as the SUI
gar, Ice, beef. beer. leather. rubber,
school desk, sewing machine, elevator.

Major Mckinley to Pennsylvania
delegation Mt Canton, October 6, 1896.
"There is one thing which 7 think
we are sometimes too apt to forget
we are apt to forget what is behind
us and to be needless of our own ex-
perience. We can hardly realize that
to 1893 we had reduced the public
debt from $2,333,331, 1903 in 1866 to
$570,0O0,0OO. We paid off during
twenty years S1,724,5s1,673 Of that
debt, and we were under a. protective
tariff and sound money system when
making the largest payments. Two
thirds of that great debt disappeared,
and while we were paying it we were
building in this country the most
splendid industrial enterprises, CIV
ing constant and steady employment
to American labor at fair wages and
to the farmers Of the country a just
reward for their toll and products.

Vampire. Not B1oodsucker..

Mr. James Rhen, who is engaged in
special study OF bats, says that it is a
rallacy that the vampire is blood
sucker Travellers and story writer's
are responsible for the story Of the ter
rible bloodsucking vampire bats Of
South America. Nearly all general
writer's on this subject agree with
them as to it's criminal record, and they
all concur in laying the blame on a
large grotesque looking bat with an
enormous leaf nose the Vampyrus
spectrum. This bat is common in
South and Central America and, from
his great size, being about two feet
across the outspread wings, is sug-
gestive and repulsive enough object to
impute the blood loving habit to.
AS matter Of fact, this Is some
what useful animal and is totally limo
cent of these charge, the bloodsuck-
ers being two much smaller and rarer
bats. The front teeth of these two lat
ter are enormous lancets occupying
over half the tooth row of the animals
and possessing very sharp edges, which
can easily penetrate the human skin.
The teeth of the big vampire, on the
other hand are simply adapted for a
diet of insects and fruit. The true
bloOdsucking bats are much rarer than
the vampire. -Philadelphia Record.

Climate and Crop Report.
DIES MONIES. JUI

DIES MONIES, JULY 8, 1900.
The week was unusually hot. ex-
cept the 18th and 9th days. The
amount of rainfall was excessive in
portions of the central and east CEN
trail districts, and ample for the
needs of the crops in all districts
except the extreme southwest. Hay
ing has been retarded and some hay
spoiled by frequent showers in the
central and southern districts. And
the very heavy rainfall, with high
winds, wrought considerable dam
age in the grainfields of the central
section. The aggregate of damage,
however, is very slight compared
with the beneficial effects of the
moisture.
The barley harvest is we'll adj
vanced, and good start has been
made in cutting early oats and
spring wheat. Harvesting small
grain is likely to crowd workers in
the hay fields. The apple crop stuff
cred materially from effects of high
winds. And in some of the south
western counties corn blades were
rolled by the excessive heat and
winds. Generally, however, the crop
prospects are very good.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. If
afflicted with any throat or lung

to prove beneficial. Coughs that have

have yielded to this remedy and per-

At a meeting of the Extra School
Board, held Tuesday evening, the
contract to furnish the school build
ing with steam heating fixtures
was let to Wallace and McNamra,
of Des Moines, the contract speci-
flying that the work should be fin
ished before time for school to
commence in September. George
Leffingwell has sub-contractedt the
mason part of the work and, with a
force of men, has began his task.
Long before the time expires they
will have the different rooms pro-
vided with steam heating appara-
tus that can be so controlled that
all parts of the building can be
heated informally.
