! tariff OF 05-IOo cents, practically two
cents pound, and that the price OF
raw sugar is usually about two cents a
pound, you can readily see how this
grievance could be removed by putting
sugar on the free list. And l ask you,
earnestly and candidly, why in the
world should this not be done? It was
good Republican doctrine when I was a
Republican; why is it not good doctrine
now, as we'll as common sense? 1t

additional comforts to the table of every
American home; but the sugar trust
controls the administration and it can
not be done.
THEY WANT THE EARTH.
But these interests, these privileged
classes, are not content with our own
country. They want more worlds to
conquer. They want to control popu-
la.ions that have less power of resist
ance than the white race-lands where
their dominion may be complete, and
so, taking advantage of the conditions
m growing Out Of the Spanish-American
war, they are now endavoring to estab-

institutions a colonial system and a
intuitively that there is menace and
danger in this new departure. To over
come this feeling they appeal to the pa
triotism, to the national pride and to the
selfshness of the people. They say that
the glory of our flag and the prestige
of our name demand it. They say that,
besides, there is money in it. This lat
ter they rely upon as their most con-
vircing argument. Did the Spanish
people find imperialism profitable? Did
their. colonial empire tend to the up
building of their industries, their trade
and their progress? On the contrary
+; it had the opposite effect. From being
the most powerful state of Christendom
the most enlightened and in many re-
spects the: most progressive, before it
embarked in the venture of colonial en-
pire, its power, its resources and its peo-
pie had been dragged down to the low
est depths of degradation before we
forced it to abandon the system. Shall
we disregard the example of Spain and
adopt the very system that destroyed
her power and impoverished her peo-
pie? 5=.:s il. 's, ~: s..r. ;.

"The appropriations for the year end

The appropriations for the year end

Dor improvements.
This leaves the annual expense of the

and we have a total expenditure, for

talties of war, of $225,ooo, 900, and this
in times of peace! These figures do not
include expenses ethat may be incurred

CONGRESS CAN THROTTLE
TRUSTS.
With absolute control over interstate
commerce, with obsolute control OF the
power of national taxation, congress
has the power to drive every trust that
ever existed into oblivion. Congress,
by proper legislation, regulated the
transportation of commodities manu-
factured by prison labor among the
states. Isn't it absurd to say that it has
not the like power to regulate the
transportation of trust products? When
congress saw fit to abolish the issue of
paper money by state banks it put a
tax of 10 per cent, on the issuance of
such notes, and state bank notes came
suddenly to an end. Thank God the
Kansas City convention did not stand
terror stricken before this anaconda
threatening the future of the American
people! In language that cannot be
misconstrued or misunderstood it said
in its platform:
"Private monopo1ies are indefensible
and intolerable. They destroy competi-
ton, control the price of all material,
and Of the finished product, thus rob-
bing both producer and consumer.
They lessen the employment Of labor
and arbitrarily fix the terms and condi-
tions thereof, and deprive individual en-
ergy and small capital of their oppor-
tunity for betterment. They are the
most efficient means yet devised for ap-
propriating the fruits of industry to the
benefits of the few at the expense of the

not attempted to monopolize any
branch of business or the production OF
any article of merchandise, and the
whole constitutional power of congress
over interstate commerce, the mails and
all modes of interstate communication
shall be exercised by the enactment of
comprehensive laws upon the subject of
trusts.
Tariff laws should be amended by
putting the products of trusts upon the
tree list to prevent monopoly under the
plea of protection.
The failure of the present Republican
administration, with an absolute con-
troll over all the branches of the ma
tlonal government, to enact any legis-
latlon designed to prevent or even cur
tail the obsorbing power of trusts and
illegal combinations, or to enforce the
anti trust laws already on the statute
books, proves the insincerity of the
high-sounding phrases of the Republi-
can platform.
Corporations should be protected in
all their rights and their legitimate in
terests should be respected, but any at

BELIEF IN FREE LIST.
If Bryan is elected what is here indi-
Gated will be accomplished. With re-
gard to many of these trust commodi-
ties, the simplest and easiest way to af-
ford the people relief would be to put
them on the free list I saw an editorial
statement in the Minneapolis. Journal
some six weeks ago to the effect that
the sugar trust had raised the price of

last, and each time it cost the country

the territory acquired from Spain in the
southern part of our country. and from
France in the south and to the west of
us. The same is true of Alaska. But
the white race never has and never can
permanently occupy and inhabit land
within the tropics.
INTEGRAL PARTS. NEVER.
We can never hope to make the Phil
ipp,ne islands integral parts of our I'm
ion, occupied by people of our race,
with Our political and social ideals, as
we have in Florida, Louisiana and CAL
lfornia. Our occupation of these is
lands will be military and the govern
ment colonial, thus converting our own
institutions from republic, resting up
on manhood suffrage, governed by laws
of the peoples own making, in other
words, governed by the consent of the
governed, to military empire. Such
changes in the institutions OF nations in
the past have always proven destructive
OF the liberties of the people, and in the
end, OF their national existence. This
historical fact is we'll expressed by
Froude, the historian, in his introduce
ton tc his Life OF Caesar" He says:
TO the student of political history,
and to the English student above all
others, the conversion OF the oman re-
public into a military empire, COM
mands a peculiar interest Notwith-
standing many differences, the English
and the Romans essentially resemble
one another. The early Romans pos
sessed the faculty OF self-governnlent
beyond any people of whom we have
historical knowledge, with the one ex-
ception of ourselves. In virtue of their
temporal freedom, they became the
most powerful nation in the known
world, and their liberties perished only
when Rome became mistress of con-
quered races, to whom she was unable
or unwilling to extend her privileges.
If there be one lesson which history
teaches it is this, that free nations can
not govern subject provinces. If they
are unable or unwilling to submit their
dependencies to share in their own con-
stltutlon, the constitution itself will fall
IN pieces from mere incompetence for
its duties."
The rightfulness OF the proposition
to govern other peoples against their
will ought not to be open for discussion
by the American people, whose govern
ment rests upon the proposition that
government by force, against the will
of the governed, and not instituted by
the consent of the governed, is tyranny.
The only answer that we can get to
this proposition is that the Philippines
are ours-that we have acquired them
by purchase and by conquest. 1 deny
the validity of each OF these claims.
There was time when human beings
could be bought and sold under our
laws, but happily that time is past. Nc
Kinley's statement, that conquest is
criminal aggression and cannot be per-
mitted by our code of morals, is as true
to-day as when he uttered it, Why did
not he stick to his original code of NOR
ais? Why did he permit Hanna to re-
wise it?

1t needs no argument to convince you
that the continuation of this condition
OF affairs will rapidly reduce the mass of
the America people to condition of
absolute serfdonl. Will you have that
condition or will you not? 1t is for the
people to answer at the polls. Hanna
says:
However, if the trusts are a menace
to the country, what party better than
the Republican party will give you re-
hef?' This is great comfort and might
carry some weight were it not for the
fact that the Republican party has been
in absolute control of every power of
the government during the last four
years and is today. If it were desirous
OF destroying the trusts and protecting
the people, why has it not done so? To
this the Republicans answer: "We pro-
posed constitutional amendment and
the Democrats would not help to pass
it. We are helpless; we can do moth
ing" What was the aim of that con-
stltutlonal amendment and what was its
purpose? !? The aim and effect of that
proposed constitutional amendment
would have been to deprive the states
of every vestige of power that they now
possess to protect the people against
the oppression Of these combinations
Its purpose was to defer action upon the
question upon a plausible pretext until
Hanna had had an opportunity to
again call upon the trusts for the exi-
gencies OF this campaign. Every citizen
knows that it takes years and years to
bring about an amendment OF the con-
stitution. Is Our constitution such a
failure that it vests congress with no
power to protect its own people against
oppression? To admit that, is to admit
that it is a lamentable delusion. The
very men who argue to this effect insist
that the congress of the United States
has the power to govern other peoples
