Madden's Ruling.

While Mr.. F. c. Madden, third assistant
postmaster-general, may be carrying out the
orders of his masters in suppRssing what are
known as reform journals throughout the coun-
try--for example, the Challenge and the Appeal
to Reason published at Girard Kansas; the
Farmers Advocate and other papers of the
same character. He will naugurate crusade
whose outcome will be hard to foretell
There has been an effort on the part of the
United States postal department for years to
handicap the reform movement in politics, but,
up to the present time, it has never dared to
shut out any leading journal or prominent
weekly. 1t seems that the time has arrived
when a third-class government official has
been allowed to assume the Office of public GEN.
sor, and dictate what the people in general
shall read
This officlous and meddlesome policy of the
government is bound to beget trouble, and per-
haps revolution, for the American people
have been taught and madeto believe that they
have the inalienable and God given right of
free speech and free press and when any
party administration, be it Republican or Dem
ocratic, would deny them that right, it is time
to protest, and woe unto the party that saith
nay.
This attack by Mr. Madden upon the reform
press is crime against humanity, and one
that stamps Madden and all his class as enemies
of tie human race, as foes of free and
righteous government.
Tie outrageous policy of the third assistant
posuaster-general is not only piece of petty
tyranny, but it is all insult to every American
citizen, and one that should be resented to the
uttellnost. 1t means more than the suppress
sion OF few petty reform papers. It means
that the most sacred right guaranteed by our
constitution is assaied. 1t means that our
whole fabric of government is in danger; that
the basest traitors occupying high places
under our government. AS long as such things
as Madden are permitted to fill public office, we
cannot have government run in the interests
of all the people.

lain has running off at the mouth. Like
Polly the parrot, he ''taks too darned much
Some time ago, he abused tine German soldiery,
in speech, which raised thu lie of the Ger
mans, and they slapped back. Things havt
been going from bad to worse ever since, and
now it is claimed that there is strong possibil-
ity that war will result.
1t is claimed that in case of war, England
will look to the United States for help. While
lot of fool Anglomaniacs will favor such
plan, the American people will not uphold them
in it. The United States has large German
speaking population, and they are good indus
trious citizens. The United States government
cannot afford to aid their enemy.
