European rivals at less cost. What
justification, then, is there for pro-
tective tariff which causes the Amer
lean consumer to pay higher price
for the same American product than
does the consumer in distant Euro
pean market?
The unfairness and iniquity of the
high protective tariff of to-day is thus
apparent in the worlds daily market
transactions. The trust, the greatest
existing menace in American life at the
present time, is the creature of the

LOAN COMPANIES HIT.
Law Recently Passed May Force Sew.

the Business.

Building and loan companies in the
northwestern part of the state are
discouraged over the recent passage of
law the provisions of which makes
profitable business uncertain. Build
ing and loan companies have deducted
all expenses from the moneys paid
into the association by the members,
The new law designates that eight
per cent. shall be the legal rate of in
terest charged and all assessments
and expenses must be taken from the
eight per cent. revenues only. This
will cause radical change to be made
in the present methods Of conducting
their business.
Already number of firms have de-
cided to go out of business when the
new law goes into effect June Is. The
Algona Deposit and Loan association
is considering the advisability of con-
verting the association into a fra
ternal insurance company The Fort
Dodge Savings and Loan also has de-
termined to go into liquidation.

M,K1NLEY FOR SECOND TERM.

hide Cinch on Re-
nomination.

Fulsome fattery reaches its limit in
the Chicago Times-Herald, the McKin-
ley-Hanna organ of the middle west.
Speaking of the proposed change in the
republican plan of representation in
national conventions, the Times-Herald
remarks that "there was never an occa-
sion SO propitious to the proposed re-
form as the present. 1t is universally
conceded" continues our Chicago con-
temporary, "that President Mckinley
will be renominated. He is absolutely
independent Of political bosses, small
and great, and has no need to influence
delegates by federal appointments or
promises thereof" Now what are the
facts?
It is universally copceded that Presi-
dent Mckinley will be renominated-
because the political bosses can work
their will unchecked, as long ms he is
in the white house.
From Mark Hanna down to the low
lest republican heeler who is supposed
to control republican delegates, thel e
is not one who has failed of his pound
of flesh. mo need to influence dele
gates by federal appointments or prom
Uses thereof" Why, every delegate
who will sit in the next republican con-
vention as representative of the great,
boss-ridden states of New York, Penn
sylvania, Ohio and Illinois-whose dele
cations and electoral votes are alike
essential to the success of the second
term project-will have been paid for a
lozen times over, in the surrender Of
President McNnley's appointive pow
ers to the machine dictators who con-
troll republicampolitics in those states!
If anything were needed to complete
the farce, the announcement that fed
eral Office holders will not be expected
to go as delegates to the national con-
vention would impart the finishing
touch of hypocrisy and characteristic
Pecksniffian McKinleyism. There is
small need of federal office holders 60
ing as delegates to help nominate a
president whose weak, yielding, pliable
disposition has so endeared him to the
republican bosses, that they would in
deed be ingrates, or blockheads, to want
any other man.-Albany Argus.

HANNA OR THE PEOPLE.
An Interesting Contest in Prospect
In the United States
Senate.

1t will not surprise the people to see
Senator Hanna, of Ohio, take the lead
ership of the opposition to the senate
constitution that shall provide for the
election of United States senators by
a direct vote of the people.
The senatorial trust instrument
from Ohio naturally sees very clearly
the danger which this movement con-
tains to himself and to other instru-
ments of the trusts whose service to
their masters may best be rendered
in the United States senate. It is
comparatively easy to defeat, by po-
litical jugglery or the use of money,
the will of the people as supposed to
be expressed through the acts of state
| legislatures. 1t is far less easy-in
fact, it is practically impossible-to
fool or bride the whole people. And
the people are not in favor of sending
trust instruments to represent their
| interests in the senate.
The senatorial junta counted on to
support Senator Hanna is powerful,
adroit and resolute. 1t will use every
means within it's power to avert the
disaster to trust dominance threat
ened by the success of this movement
for the election of senators by popu-
lar vote. 1t possesses tremendous
advantage in the fact that it will re-
quire a twothirds vote Of the senate
to pass the proposed amendment.
Public sentiment brought to bear on
senators not impervious to it's influ.
ence through their subserviency to
the trust is counted upon to overcome
the work of Mark Hanna and his trust
troop in the United States senate. The
| people favor the election Of senators
by direct vote. A majority of the
senate is believed also to be favorable
to the proposed amendment. The nee
essary two-thirds majority would, it
is thought, be scored under popular
pressure. The fight, therefore, is be-
| tween Mark Hanna and the people
1t will be interesting to note which
is the stronger in the senate of the
United States.-St. Louis Republic.

A joyful Surprise.

Harry Neal, son of Mrs. Minnie judi
son, of Washington, fought in the
Philippines as a sailor in the Asiatic
squadron when Dewey took Manila
bay. No letter had come from him for
more than year, and the mother
mourned him as dead. One of the I'M
identified dead brought from Manila
and buried at Arlington year ago
she recognized, from the description,
as her son. The other day Neal re-
turned. He had put off writing from
time to time, and his period of enlists
ment being about to expire, he de-
termined to surprise his mother. He
succeeded beyond his most sanguine
expectations.

THE ONLY SURE WAY.
Would Be Blow to the
Trusts.

In considering the action taken by
the antitrust conference at its meet
ing in Chicago it may be said, without
discussing the wisdom or timeliness
of other features of the platform
adopted, that the plank which declares
for the withdrawal of protective tariffs
from all articles controlled by trust
strikes an effective blow at the root
of the trust evil.
It has become plain to the people Of
this country that the high protective
tariff which, at the expense of the con-
Stunning public, has made possible the
building up of certain mammoth cor
porations, has also brought into being
the trust as palpable menace to the
general good. The operation of the
tariff gave to these favored industries
control of the markets. Established
control naturally led to the trust or
combine idea. The advantages born
of the destruction of foreign compete
ton inevitably suggested the advan-
tages sure to follow the elimination of
the element Of domestic competition
by means of the Combine" for the
regulation of output and prices
The trust system would be broken at
its strongest point the moment pro-
tectiye tariffs were removed from all
articles controlled by the trusts. The
tptrenched Notifications behind which
the trust forces have been organized
wrould be swept away, and this ire
mendous influence forced into the
open. Competition with the whole
world would mean, first and foremost,
healthy competition at home. The
eentralizing tendency of commercial
Rnd industrial enterprises would thus
be effectually checked. The American
people, the consumers, would be the
Immediate and direct benefciaries of
this wholesome reform.
Nor may 1t now be charged that in
Justice would be done to American
merchants or manufacturers by this
abolition of a high protective tariff.
rhe very concerns that are now PRO
4ected" from European competition in
their American, or home, markets are
to-day actually underselling those
European competitors in. European
markets. They are doing this, of
course, because they can manufacture
