The Republican Party.

The policy of the Republican party
since it passed under the control of
Hanna may be summarized as follows:
l. Pay the trusts and usurers the
money advanced for the campaign
fund of 1896.
2. Retire the greenbacks.
8. Make silver token money, redeem
able in gold.
A. Put the banks in possession of all
money-making functions.
8. Make the government issue bonds
to redeem silver and to buy gold.
c. Increase the standing army to
100000 lat first).
Z. Conduct perpetual war in our col
onies.
8. Continue indefinitely the war and
Dingley taxes.
9. Increase all kinds of taxes gener-
ally.
10. Bury every year about 5000 Of
our young men in the Philippines.
IL. Enlarge pension roll indefinitely
10. Gradually and quietly transform
our Republic into an empire.
10. Keep Democratic military and
naval heroes away from home or dis
credit their bravery.

The "Mother of Trusts

Three times during the past months
the Sugar Trust has raised the price
of sugar. The grocery stores and poor
consumers have paid the advance
without a murmur. They have no pro-
lection and they knew it was useless
to complain.
1t has been learned, however, that
at the present schedule of prices for
eign sugars can enter this market at
profit.
But the Sugar Trust must have pro-
lection or Republican principles VIII
all be violated. Foreign sugar must
not be allowed to enter our markets.
1t would hurt Havemeyer.
Therefore, trot out the tariff, that
fine old mother of trusts and let her
protecting wings hover over the head
of the sugar king. If necess~cv let
President Mckinley call special ses-
sion Of congress. Whatever happens to
the consumer the trusts must not be
neglected Miner

our Imperator n ChIna.

Public attention will be riveted upon
this following part of Mr.. McKinIey's
letter to his brother sovereigns
through the secretary of state, Mr..
Hay:
"The purpose of the president is
to act concurrently with the
other powers fourthly, in aid
ing to prevent spread of the disorder
to other provinces and a recurrence of
such disasters"
1.-THE purpose" not Of the congress,
not of the people, If you please, but of
the president! "The president" and
the o Their powers!" Certainly no
fault is to be found with this docu-
ment, written by Mr.. Hay and revised
by the president at Canton, O., on the
score of lack of frankness. That great
imperial high-mightiness the president
will cooperate with "the other pow
ers" not merely in protecting Ameri-
can life and property. not merely in
doing what the American people, hith-
erto supposed to bear the relation to
the president Of sovereign to servant,
may have authorized, but in using Am
erican sailors and soldiers in aiding
to prevent a recurrence of such disas-
ters." That is. Mr.. Mckinley will use
the armies and navies of the United
States arbitrary and without author
ity in pacifying Chinai
What respect can we expect to com
mand for the Monroe dostrine Of nom
interference by European powers in
the affairs of this hemisphere If we
are to Join in wars of conquest and a
concert of action" to secure spheres
of influence" in Asia? Could there be
a more complicated and dangerous for
