TONNES GREAT SPEECH.

Senator Towne closed his
short senatorial term Monday,
when Moses f. Clapp was sworn
in. Towne occupied the last
hours of his time in making a
speech upon the Philippine ques-
tion. 1t is regarded as the most
forceful speech yet made against
the administrations Philippine
policy. The Minneapolis Jour
nal correspondent thus describes
the event:
1t was splendid audience to which
Mr.. Towne spoke, and it paid him the
high compliment of eager and unremit-
ting attention. The galleries were
crowded. Every newspaper man at
the capital was in the senate press
gallery. Every democratic senator
was in his seat, and more than half of
the republicans. Scores of members
of the house, republicans and demo-
Gratis, including the Minnesota delega-
ton, lined the walls of the senate
chamber, and 61Aeu every chair and
settee. There has not been such an
audience in the senate since Senator
Beveridge OF Indiana a year ago de-
livered his widely heralded maiden
speech on the Philippines.
The spell of Towne's eloquence was
far-reaching and supreme. He never
has appeared to better advantage and
repeatedly the crowds were visibly
stirred by his words.
When Towne finished his address, at
$40 p. m, after talking three hours,
he was Immediately surrounded by a
group of democratic senator's, who
offered congratulations, and in the
group were half dozen republicans.
There was applause in the galleries
and on the floor, which the president
pro tempore with some difficulty con-
trolled.

QUESTIONABLE Appointments.

The president has appointed
a son of Justice Harlan attorney
general for Porto Rico. He has
also appointed son of Justice
McKenna to the Office Of major in
the army, and in order to do so
he lifted the very young soldier
over the heads of 118 other off,
GERS who outranked him. These
may be good appointments-we
do not know whether they are or
not, but the remarka BILE thing
about them is that at the time
they were made there was pend
ing before the supreme court of
the United States a question in
which the president was very
much interested. Young Har-
Ian is made attorney general for
that island the status of which
will be decided in a few days by
Judge Harlan. A son of Judge
is given high position just before
the Judge gives a decision that
will make or mar the president.
These two appointments are in
bad taste. They are unprece-
denied. The conduct of the
president is. disgraceful and in
decent. They tell US that these
nominations will not affect the
opinions of Justices Harlan and
McKenna because they are hon.
est men. Perhaps they won't
but Christ said, Lead US not into
temptation.
Of course supreme justices
cannot be Influenced or bribed-
Of course they are not subject to
temptation like other men-of
course they are just, pure and
i'm maculate, but the question still
arises, why did one of them so
suddenly change his mind on the
income tax law?-Nonconformist.

Hazen E. Pingree, on retiring
from the governor chair of the
great state of Michigan, made
this prophecy: Il make the pre-
diction that unless those in
charge, and in whose hands legis-
lation is reposed, do not change
the present system of inequality
in less than a quarter of a centu-
ry there will be a bloody revolu-
ton in this great country of
ours The corporation press
ridicules Pingree Of course, but
that does not change conditions.
Pingree is a republican, but is a
pronounced insurrecto in his at
titude towards the drift of his
party. He will land in good com
pany.

Napoleon was leading the army
of Italy for a simple generals
salary he poured out the treas
ures of his genius as lavish y as
when he was emperor, with the
spoils OF Europe at his command.
He did his best at Rivoli, and he
could have done no more if the
revenues of a continent had been
the reward.
It will be a good while before
the Carnegies and the Rockefel-
lers are superseded in the iron
and oil trades, but there are. in
dustries in which the country is
ready even now to consider the
advisability of reducing the wa
ges of superintendent to. rea-
sonable figures. The railroads,
for instance, could be managed
just as we'll by national super.
intendent of railways on a salary
of $25, 600 a year as we'll as by a
com bination of Morgans, Hills
and Vanderbilts collecting

The telegraphs are ripe for
transfer to a public department.
They constitute a national mon
opoly already, and their manag-

The express business IS essen
TALLY a part Of the postal service.
There is no reason why there
should be express milliouaires
when the work could be done
just as we'll by government en-
ployes on moderate salaries.
The savings banks have been
attached to the post Office in al
most every country in the world
but ours. It is known by exper-
fence that their management is
a function we'll within the pow
ers Of public officials.
The telephones have built up

lively if it's profits went to the peo-
pie.
In all these enterprises most
of the real work is done by sala.
ried officials. The great railroad
systems are not run by the mil.
lionaires who absorb their prof.
it's, but by superintendent
managers and presidents draw
ing from $4,000 to SIS, 1000 apiece.
The millions are mostly made in
stock manipulation. That would
disappear under government
ownership, but the working
stats would remain, and the pub
lie would get at least as good ser
vice as ever.-Hearst's Chicago

who for two campaigns has done all

Every plutocratic tendency, the
power of wealth, the greed of soulless
corpor ations and lust for the pomp
and power of kingcraft and privileged
classes are openly working within the
republican party. The populist who
returns to that party after being fully
aware of its disposition surely re-
pudiates populism and if he Delied and
denounced his late associates as foul
ly as Dobbyn did and asked for an
office to reward him for the work, he
fully deserves the term of renegade.
We have noticed that republican edit
ors always have profound respect for
the honesty and zeal of a populist as
long as he is in some position where
he will assist the republican program,
but when he threatens republican. SUI
premacy then he is very bad man or
is being led astray by false lie ders.

of his cussedness that he always feels

ing OF favorable mention being made
in several country weeklies of j. J.
Hill for U. S. senator says, "six
years ago such suggestion would

OF country weeklies by the simple ex-
pedient of abo fishing all advertising

All he needs is to get string of that
nature attached to the average quill

We refer this to senator Jack Ry-

WEDNESDAY, JAN. 80, 1901
the PRICE OF PUBLIC SERVICE.

about 81, 2OO,O 900 a year for the
same service. This is more than
the com bined salaries of the
President and Vice-President of
the United States, ali the men,
bers of the Cabinet, all the JUS
tees of the Supreme Court, all
the judges of the other United
States courts, the Lieutenant
General, Major General and Bri-
gadier- Generals of the regular
army, the Admiral and all the
Rear Admirals of the navy, and
the governors of all the states
and erritories. It seems hardly
probable that one inoffensive
youth, just married at Newport,
has more brains than all the
functionaries com bined, or rem
ders greater services to the COM
munity.
But the Vanderbilt case is mild
compared with others. We pay
Mr.. Carnegie $25, 000,00 a year
for running part of the national
steel business, and Mr.. Rookie
Teller still more for managing
the oil and some other indus
tries.
When we look at the matter
from a social point of view all
these payments are simply sala.
ries for performing certain pub
lie services. The nation might
make it's own iron and steel un-
der the supervision of govern
ment officials, but it prefers to
let Mr.. Carnegie undertake the
work and collect what he can in
the way of profits for his CON-
pensation.
The orthodox economists have
justified this arrangement on the
ground that these payments are
necessary to induce men of abil-
ity to undertake the work of pro-
duction. But is that true?
Would able men refuse to work
if these enormous rewards were
reduced?
We fail to see any ground for
such belief. Even under pres
ent conditions, with all the prof
it's of business in direct competi-
ton, the government has no diff
ticulty in securing all the men Of
ability it wants to do it's work for
small salaries.
When A. T. Stewart was maxi
ing a million dollars a year in the
dry goods business he was will
ling to give it all up to work as
Secretary of the Treasury for a
salary of $4,000. Lincoln carried
us through. the greatest war in
history, bearing the burden of a
nations destiny on his shoulders
for four years, and facing every
moment the danger of assassina-
tioD that finally struck him down,
all for $25, 900 a year. It really
seems as il Lincoln's work were
as arduous as Mr.. Carnegie's,
and called for as much ability.
John Marshall laid the splen:
did foundations of American
constitutional law for the salary
of one of Mr.. Rockefel1er's
clerks.
Suppose there were no way in
which Mr.. Carnegie could amass
| hundreds of millions in his pri-
vate business, and he were Of
fered a salary of 100000 year
to manage the iron industry for
the American people, is it likely
that he would refuse? And if he
accepted, would it be possible
for him to keep his energy and
his ingenuity idle, and soldier
on his job because he was earn
ing only 100000 instead Of $25,
000, 900 a year?

4th, for Philadelphia. with a load Of
salt. was towed into port today, leak

blew fully fifty-five miles an hour, with
very heavy sea.
The salt cargo clogged the pumps,
the wind stripped the masts and the
schooner was left at the mercy Of the

AMERICAS FOREIGN TRADE
Great Excess of Exports over the I'M
ports for Last Year

Washington, July 13.-The statement
of the imports and exports of the
United States for the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1901, was completed by the
treasury bureau of statistics today. IL
shows that the total imports of the
year were $685., ,756, 5SS total exports ST.
4S7, ,S56,544, and the excess of exports
over imports 1864. .90O.011. The imports
are $27. .1S4,651 below those Of last year,
and the exports are $93, ,173, ,462 above
those Of last year. The excess Of ex-
ports over imports exceeds that of last
year by s120, 1855, ,11S, and is $49, 9,4S7, ,S55
greater than the highest record ever
before made, that of 1898. Under the
new relations with Hawaii and Porto
Rico, the commerce with those islands
is no longer included in the regular
statement Of foreign commerce of the
United States. Had they been so in
cluded, as has been the case in former
years, the total exports would have ex-
ceeded $500, 600, 900, as the exports to
those islands during the year have ag-
gregated about SIS, ,OO0, 900.
