the SAME OLD EXCUSE.

speaking of the plank in the Ohio
democratic platform, demanding the
total suppression OF all trusts, the
New Y ork Sun, the recognized mouth
piece of plutocracy, says: H.
This Is q monstrous proposition.
Were there any way of carrying it in
to effect industrial disaster more wide
spread and ruinous than has ever fall
len upon the country would be the re-
suit. There would be q commercial
cataclysm. The amount of capital
and Of labor dependent upon these
combinations is so vast that to crush
them would be to bring on unparal-
leied economic calamity compared
with which the free coinage Of silver
would have been fly bite. s n

because 1t would disturb business.
Bryan was twice defeated because 1t
was said that Ris election would bring
on financial panic. And now the
trusts are to be regarded as sacred
because forsooth any attempt to re-
strict them would bring on q panic.
Is. this bugaboo of q panic forever
going to stand in the way of human
rights? Are we to PROSTATE ourselves
before this Moloch of business, and
sacrifice to it all the rights Of man?
The trusts are wiping out Independent
plants, throwing men out of employ
ment and running property; they are
making attempts to crush labor or
CARNATIONS SO as to have both the
producer and the consumer of their
goods at their mercy. They dictate
legislation and control the judiciary
in many cases. And yet this great
nation, that would dare to defy the
strongest foreign nation, shall not
dare to touch these Midas feared
monsters. Are the American people
such towards that they will long be
cowed by this threat? Was the gener-
alton OF forty years ago made of
sterner stuff that it dared to disre-
gard the ''business" threats and exc
cute justice? Manhood is worth more
than money. A prosperity that de-
peuds on the uncontrolled will of half
q dozen individuals is curse, not q
blessing to any country.

Ex-Governor Stone of Missouri in
recent speech took occasion to give
the "re-organizers'' dressing down.
He says that party without fixed
principles, one that will trim it's sails
to every passing breeze, will soon de-
generate into mob. A victory won
by sacrificing principles is worse than
q defeat, for it will demoralize the
party. If the principles of the repub-
lican party are to be employed in the
government of the country it should
be done by the republican party.
With regard to the men who in the
past two campaigns have deserted
democracy and now want to control
the party, Stone wants to welcome
them back, but they must come as
privates, ready to support the policies
Of the party, not as leaders debating
the course of the party. Unfortunately
Stone has little influence in the states
where the ''re-organizers'' are the
strongest. The states that have the
largest representation in the conven-
tions are the ones in which the "any-
thing-to-get-office" democracy are liza
BILE to control caucuses and conven-
tions. This element has the support
of the plutocratic press in their section,
regardless of nominal party affilia-
tions, and the people will be fooled in
to voting for the change to a platform
that will be acceptable to the money
power.

A. Delacey Wood, the veteran news
paper promoter, has been released
from the insane asylum at Fergus
Falls. He claims that he never was
crazy, and that he is ready to start
another newspaper. In regard to his
experience he says
"There I was, as sane man as ever
lived, probably not as sober though,
and men rushed to me to convince me
that the place for me was the insane
asylum. [ resisted their argument,
but In vain. I was railroaded off to
the 'bug-hOuse' and had to stay there
in that Internal place with q lot of
raving maniacs, just as though I was
one OF them. Sometimes, as would
look around me and see the gang of
idiots and then reflect upon my own
lot, 1 would be forced to laugh at my
self as ridiculous as the situation
really was. Yes, that was romance
for me, but have never sought such
romantic experiences and shall cer-
tainly not court them in the future.'
It seems to be pretty hard to keep
an editor in the "bug-house." It is
now a good many years since an at
tempts was made to get rid of Frank
Hoskins at Fergus, but he stayed only
few days.

Political conditions, says the Com
moner, become corrupt because vice is
continuous in it's operation while virtue
is often spasmodic. The many who
simply want good government arouse
themselves occasionally to secure some
necessary reform but the few who make
money out of legislation are always
alert and active.
A Kansas paper relates that on
July 6, at noon time, wheat was har-
vested at Great Bend, was threshed
and ground, and baked to bread in
the afternoon, which was eaten for
supper the same evening. All done in
half day.-Red Lake Falls Gazette.

The malicious attack on Admiral
Schley by the alleged historian Maclay
has revived the Schley Sampson con-
troversy and led to the appointment OF
q commission to inquire into the
matter. It is to be hoped that this
commission will be- able to settle the
dispute and effectnally quash the ad-
ministration hero who like Sheridan
was twenty miles away, but unlike the
latter did not get there in time to do
anything to distinguish himself. The
American people have already rem
dered their verdict, but coming genera
tions will be liable to be misled by
official decisions and it is therefore
important that official credit be given
where it is due. s>.: -
