Effects OF ths War.

How closely the world is knit to-
sether commercially is instanced by the
fact that some three hundred lapidarles
in New York alone are out OF work be-
cause OF the failure OF the supply OF dia-
monds from South Africa. Since most
OF these workmen are married men, hye
or six hundred people are affected. In
Amsterdam and Antwerp it is said iou-
or FIVE thousand men are idle from the
same cause.

canal for a specific declaration in ra-
vor of the Nicaraguan canal, would in
dicate that the Republican leaders
either do notappreciate the Importance
of this great waterway to the mari
time strength and commercial inter-
ests of the country, or that they give
too much consideration to the interest
ed opposition of transcontinental lines.
The Hays-Pauncefote treaty, now be-
fore the senate, would, if ratified,
greatly lessen the value of the canal,
if it would not indeed convert it into
a positive menace in time of war. The
paramount interests of the United
States in the western hemisphere, to-
gether with the obligations to defend
the republics to the south of us, makes
it necessary that our government shall
be able to close the canal against any
hostile power.
Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma

responsibilities and enjoy the privi-
leges of statehood, and it will be a
pleasure, as well as a duty, to carry
out the platform pledge concerning
them.
There will be popular acquiescence
in the demand for home rule, and a
territorial form of government in
Alaska and Porto Rico. Both are en-
titled to local government and

INCOME TAX PLANK.
1t Is Covered by Reaffirmation of the CT
cago Platform.

1t Is Covered by ReaftirmatiOn of the Chi
cago Platform.
BY inadyel tence the income tax
plank agreed upon by the resolutions
form as read and adopted. The SUD-
ject, however, is covered by the re-
affirmation of the Chicago platform,
and l take this occasion to reassert
my belief in the principle which under
lies the income tax. Congress should
have authority to levy and collect an
income tax whenever necessary, and
an amendment to the federal consti-
tuition specifically comforting such au-
thority ought to be supported by even
those who may think the tax unneces-
sary at this time. In the hour of
danger the government can draft the
citizen; it ought to be able to draft
the pocketbook as well. Unless money
is more precious than blood, we can
not afford to- give greater protection to
the incomes of the rich than to the
lives of the poor.
The subjects, however, treated in
this letter, important as each may
seem in itself, do not press so inpera-
lively for solution as the question
which the platform declares to be the
paramount issue in this campaign.
Whether we shall adhere to, or aban-
don those ideas of government which
have distinguished this nation from
other nations and given to it's history
it's peculiar charm and value, is ques-
ton the settlement of which cannot
be delayed. No other question can ap-
proach it in Importance; no other
question demands such immediate con-
sideration. 1t is easier to lose a repu-
tation than to establish one, and this
nation would find it long and labori-
Gus task to regain it's proud position
among the nations, if, under the stress
of temptation, it should repudiate the
self-evident truths proclaimed by our
heroic ancestors and sacredly treas
ured during a career unparalleled In
the annals of time. When the doctrine
that the people are the only source OF
power is made secure from further at.
tack we can safely proceed to the set.

which involve the domestic and eco

UNFAIR TAXATION.

Matter Which Is Made the Pretext for
Spending Public Money.
The Republican party, drawing as it
does enormous campaign funds from
those who enjoy special privileges at
the hands of the government, is power
less to protect the tax payers from the
attack of those who profit by large ap-
propriations. A surplus in the treas
ury offers constant temptation to ex-
travagance, and extravaganza, in turn,
compels a resort to new means of taxa
ton, which is being kept in the back
ground until the campaign is over, is
a fair illustration of the imposition

self, is made the pretext for expen-
diture of public money for the benefit

The government being only the agent
of the people, has no right to collect
from the people taxes beyond the le-
gitimate needs of a government hon
estly and effectively administered, and
public servants should exercise the
same degree of care in the use of the
peoples money that private individ-
uals do in the use of their own money.

DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION.

1t Should BE Supported by the Public
Employer and Employe.
The platform renews the demand for
arbitration between corporations and
their employees. No one who has OBJ
served the friction which arises be-
tween great corporations and their
numerous employees can doubt tie wis
dom of establishing an impartial court
for the just and equitable settlement
of disputes. The demand for arbitra-
tion ought to be supported as heartily
by the public, which suffers inconveni-
ence because of strikes and lockouts,
and by the employers themselves, as
by the employees. The establishment
Of arbitration will insure friendly re-
lations between labor and capital, and
render obsolete the growing practice
of ealing in the army to settle labor
troubles.
I cannot too strongly emphasize the
Importance of the platform recon-
mendation of the establishment of a
department of labor, with a member
of the cabinet at its head. When we
remember how important a position
the laborer fills in our economic, So
cial and political fabric, it is hard to
conceive of a valid objection being
made to this recognition of his serv-
ices Agriculture is already represent
ed in the presidents official household;
the army and navy have their repre-
sentatives there; the state department,
with its consular service, and the
treasury department, with its close
connection with fiscal affairs, keep the
executive in touch with the business
and commercial interests. A cabinet
officer truly representative of the wage
earning class would be of invaluable
aid, not only to the toilers, but to the
president.
The Chinese exclusion act has proven
an advantage to the country, and its
continuance and strict enforcement, as
well as its extension to other similar
races, are imperatively necessary. The
Asiatic is so essentially different from
the American that he cannot be as
simulated with our population, and is
therefore, not desirable as permanent
citizen. His presence as temporary
laborer, preserving his national identi.
ty, and maintaining a foreign scale OF
wages and living, must ever prove an
injustice to American producers, as
well as a perpetual source of irritation

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
1t Is Absolutely Essential to the Welfare
of the United States.

1t Is Absolutely Essential to the Welfare
of the United States.
The dostrine enunciated by Monroe,
and approved by succeeding presidents,
is essential to the welfare of the
United States. The continents Of
North and South America are dedi-
Gated to the development of free gov
ernment. One republic after another
has been established, until today mon
archial idea has barely foothold in
the new world.
While it is not the policy Of this
country to interfere where amicable
relations exist between European
countries and their dependencies in
America, our people would look with
disfavor upon any attempt on the part
Of European governments to maintain
an unwilling or forcible sovereignty
over the people living on this side of
the Atlantic.
The position taken by the Republic
an leaders, and more recently set
forth by the Republican candidate for
the presidency, viz: That we cannot
protect a nation from outside inter-
ference without exercising sovereignty
over its people, Is an assault upon the
Monroe doctrine, for while this argu-
ment is at this time directed against
the proposition to give to the tilipinos
both independence and protection, it
is equally applicable to the republics
of Central and South America. If this
government cannot lend its strength to
another republic without making sub
jects of its people, then we must
either withdraw our protection from
the republics to the south of us or alb
sorb them. Under the same plea, that
the guardian nation must exert an au-
thority equal to it's responsibility, Eu-
ropean nations have for centuries eX-
plotted their wards, and it is a sig
nificant fact that the Republican party
should accept the European idea of a
protectorate, at the same time that il
adopts a European colonial policy
There is no excuse for this abandon
ment of the American idea. We have
| maintained the Monroe doctrine fol
three-quarters of a century. The ex
pense to u1 has been practically moth
ing, but the protection has been beyond
value to our sister republics. If

ruins of Spanish tyranny, its protec

interest. but which more remotely er-
feet our entire population. While what
Is generally known as government by
Injunction is at present directed chief
ly against the employees of corpora
tions. when there is disagreement be-
tween them and their employer, 1t in
wolves a principle which concerns ev-
cry one. The purpose of the injunc-
ton in such cases is to substitute trial
by Judge for trial by jury, and Is
a covert blow at the jury system. The
abolition of government by injunction
is as necessary for the protection of
the reputation of the court, las it is for
the security of The citizen. Blackstone
IN defending trial by jury, says
"The impartial administration of
Justice, which secures both our per-
sons and our properties is the great
end of civil society, but if that be en-
trusted entirely to the magistracy, a
select body of men, and those selected
by the prince such as enjoy the high
est offices of the state, their decisions
have frequently an involuntary bias
toward those of their own rank, and
dignity. 1t is not to be expected from
human nature that the few would be
always attentive to the interests and
good of the many"
If the criminal laws are not sufficient
for the protection of property, they
can be made more severe, but a citi-
zen charged with crime must have his
case tried before jury of his peers.
The blacklist as now employed in
some places enables the employer to
place the employe under practical du-
ress, for the skilled laborer loses his
independence when the employers can
not only discharge him, but prevent his
securing any similar employment. The
blacklist enables employers to secure,
by mutual agreement, that control
over The wage earners which private
monopoly exercises without contract.

ISLAND OF CUBA.
Can Its Welfare BE Intrusted to the Re-
publican Party?


The recognition contained in both
the Democratic and Republican plat
forms of the right of the Cubans to in
dependence, removes the general prin-
ciple involved from the domain of par
tisan politics. 1t is proper, however,
to consider whether the accomplish
ment of this purpose can be safely en-
trusted to the Republican party after
it has yielded to the allurements of the
colonial idea, and abandoned it's ear
lier faith in the natural and inalien-
able rights of man.
The time is ripe for systematic and
extended effort to reclaim the arid
lands and fit them for actual settlers.
The last agricultural report estimates
that homes can thus be provided for
many millions of people. The inn
pounding and use of the waters which
are wasted in the spring would people
the western states with thrifty, intelli-
gent and Industrious citizens, ana
these would furnish a valuable market
for all the products of the factories. A
small percentage of the money spent
in war of conquest would provide oc-
cupation and habitation for more peo-
pie than would ever seek a residence
in colonies within the tropics.
The reasons given by Washington,
Jefferson and the other statesmen of
the early days in support of the doct-
rine that we should maintain friendly
relations with all nations, but enter
into entangling alliances with none,
are even stronger today than they
were hundred years ago. Our COM
merce is rapidly increasing, and we
are brought into constant communica-
tion with all parts of the world. Even
if we desired to do so, we could not
afford to ALLEVIATE many nations by cul-
tivating unnecessary intimacy with a
few. Our strength and standing are
such that it is less necessary than ever
before to lean for aid upon the friend
liness of foreign power.
We cannot connect ourselves with
European nations, and share in their
jealousies and ambitions without los
ing the peculiar advantage, which our
location, our character and our insti-
tutions give us in the worlds affairs.

THE PENSION LAWS.
They Should Be Construed According to
Spirit That Prompted Passage.


rrba naptv expresses its pride in the
ss66..alerg and sailors of all our wars,
and declares its purpose y ueai gen
erously with them and their depend
ents. A liberal policy is natural and
necessary in a government which de-
pends upon a citizen soldiery, instead
of a large standing army. Self-inter-
est as we'll as gratitude, compels the
government to make bountiful pro-
vision for those who, in the hour of
danger, and at great sacrifice of busi-
ness, health and life, tender their
services to their country.
The pension laws should be con-
strued according to the generous spirit
which prompted their passage. The
platform very properly reiterates the
position taken in 1885, that the fact of
enlistment shall be deemed conclusive
evidence that the soldier was sound
when the government accepted him.
A certificate given now to the health OF
a person 40 years ago, even If easily
obtainable, should not have as much
weight as the certificate Of the medical
officer who examined the volunteer
with a view of ascertaining his fitness
for army service.
The Democratic party is in favor Of
the immediate construction, ownership
and control of the Nicaragua canal by
