say nothing Of becoming mllllonalrtB
II ls not a question OF industry, faith
fulness and intelligence, but OF oppor
tunity Of privilege. The man who
wants to become a mlllonalr must
never expect TO become through per-
sonal qualities alone. He must take
advantage of conditions and lnatitu-
tlOns which give one set Of men with
brains, and energy an advantage over
other men with similar endowments.
Such distinctions, and variations OF
opportunities In various avocations are
not just. They bring not equal re-
ward for equal labor, to say nothing OF
the evils Of the arbitrary power OF
wealth and the slavery Of poverty
However 1t Is q good sign to see tl G
organs owned by the great corporations
and combinations Of wealth discussing
and attempting to justify their privl.
ledgeS for they must recognize that
the people are questioning the justice
Of such privileges.

SOME of.the most pointed comments
on present administration policies are
found in revolutionary literature, Here
ia one from Edmund Burke which the
latter day manifest destiny" leaders
will do well to ponder; Arbitrary
power is not TO be had by conquest, nor
can any sovereign have 1t by success
sion; for no man can succeed to fraud, ,
rapine and violence. Those who give
and those who receive arbitrary power
are alike criminal, and there Is no man
but ls bound to resist II to the best of
his power wherever II shall show its
face TO the world". Law and
arbitrary power are In eternal enmlty,
Name me a magistrate and | will name
property; name me power and | will
name protection, 1t is conlradic-
tion Of terms, 1t Is blasphemy In re-
llgion, 1t Is wckedness In politics to
say that any man can have arbitrary

doubtless true, but there Is something
besides which neither an association

Querlng a weaker country Such ac-
quisitlon of territory does not attrack

money and hold Its railroads and chief

steadily going on. The Argentine Re-

for the ppynent of which It's railroads,
mines and other public interests are
pledged. BOLIVIA has borrowed oil the
money IL can upon its natural re-
sources. In time 1t will cease to be q

ably largely through the pressure the
creditor brings on debtor that the
European.nations control their com
merice.

The invitation given by the two re.
publican state central committee to
the populists TO come back into the re-
publican party is somewl at laughable.
What does a party so all powerful, and
eminently respectable want with all
this horde of cranks, idiots lunatlcs,
anarchists, repudiators, coppcrheads
and traltorsY The men to whom this
invitation Is extended must be all this
because the men who extended it have

The Kansas City Journal produces

Ohio telling OF his wonderful advance
nent during the past twenty years
from comon day laborer to a multi.
millionaire, and then enumerates a
few other similar instances Of the same
tenor to show the beauty ana justice
of our American institutions. The
fact is 1t shows nothing but the mon-
strocity and injustice Of the institu-
tiOns. Johnson and the other men
enumerated no doubt worked very lit
tie harder while becoming millionaire,
through the special privileges of street
car franchises, than when they were
teamsters and day laborers. The edi-

they were. They used the same in

AS long as the Almighty moves In
mysterious ways, there will never cease
to be wonders One of the latest and
greatest is the incorporation of pop
ulist principle into the hill being
framed by the State tax commission to
be presented to the next legislature
fer enactment. The commission Is to
recommend the abolition of an inherl-
tance tax of nve per cent on all be-
quests to colloteral heirs or legatit g.
The principal is good although it
should be extended to direct as we'll as
colloteral heire with a graduated rate

1t is an unexpected beginning and in

FOURTH OF JULY REFLECTIONS

FOURTH OF JULY REFLECTIONS,
SUDDENLY now Ii comes upon us
that the menace to the principles Of the
Declaration Of Independence comes
not from kings and potentates but
from ourselves, The "effete mon.
archs," Of whom our orators have
loved to talk, have needed only to cit
still In patience and behold US repu.
date all in the way Of abroad aud gen.
eral philosophy that the Declaration
Of Independence stands for. The wat.
chword Of the quarrel out of which
came the Declaration was taxation
without representation Is tyranny"
and the Declaration itself enumerates
among the causes for separation from
the government Of the King Of Eng.
land, "impoSing taxes upon us with
out our consSnt," Yet precisely these
things We are doing in Porto Rico,
have done in Cuba, and shall do In the
Philippines, while our supreme court
afflrms their entire harmony with our
constitution.
1t was the practice universally years
ago, and may be still the custom in
some OF our smaller communities, to
have the Declaration read on the viii
llage green or at some other public
place for the instruction of the youth
and the retreshment of patriotism gen
orally. 1t was salutary practice, and
one which 1t were pity to abandon,
yet We can foresee some embarras-
ment this year on part Of q reader with
alert wits, when, in the face Of
our own doings Of late, he shall come
to the enumeration Of the dire Of
fenses of King George-oifenses that
justified our revolution.
"He has refused his assent to laws,
Cno ulOnV WuOlcoOmo huu u6CCtbohTy
for the public good. ."-and President
Mckinley has just condemed the
whole Cuban constitution.
He has made judges dependent on
his will alone for the tenure of their
offices, and the amount and the pay
ment of their salaries, Exactly as
the judges In Porto Rico and the Phil
ippines are dependent on our presi-
dent,
HE has erected q multitude OF new
offices, and sent hither swarms Of Of
llcers to harass our people and eat out
their substance. Porto Ricans and
Filipinos can reiterate this charge
with entire justice.
"For imposing taxes upon US with.
out our consent. For quarter
ing large bodies of armed troops among
US. For depriving us in many
cases of the benefit Of trial by jury"
