NO RELIEF TO BE EXPECTED
FROM REPUBLICAN PARTY.
Republican Press and Orators are Estopped
from Claiming that Their Party Can be
Depended Upon for Relief on the Trust
Question.

Will any one be- deluded bv the hope
held out by some republican newspapers
that the republican party may be de-
pended upon to give the people relief on
the trust question or on the tariff ques'
ton, or on other questions in which it is
to the interest OF those who provide the
republican party with cam iaign funds
to maintain present conditions?
Republican leaders cannot claim that
the failure to provide relief was due to
oversight. Democratic members OF the
house of representatives met in caucus
on June 27, and adopted resolutions in
when 1t was charged tnat Ilie repuUii.""
majority in congress sis dominated and
controlled by the trusts and monopolies
which have the great industries OF our
country in their grasp" These resclu-
tions charged that the republic party
refused and failed "to bring in any
measure to suppress the trusts or to favor
ably report any OF the numerous anti
trust bills introduced by democratic
members during this session." Then
the democratic members resolved:
"We favor the immediate passage OF
measure to amend the present antitrust
law, SO as more fully to protect trade and
commerce against unlawful restraints and
monopolies, and also measure to reduce
the duties on all articles and commodities
manufactured ard controlled or produced
in the United States by a trust or trusts,
so as to destroy such illegal combina-
tons, and to reduce the rate Of duty on
any article or commodity manufactured
in the United States and sold in foreign
country more cheaply than in the United
States.
"We oppose the adjournment Of con-
gress until the measures mentione
above have been enacted into law"
The republican congress adjourned.
The antitrust law was not amended.
Nothing was done to more fully protect
trade and commerce against unlawful re-
straints and monopolies; nothing was
done to reduce the duties on articles and
commodities manufactured and con-
trolled or produced in the United States
by trust or trusts, so as to destroy such
illegal combinations; nothing was done
to reduce the rate OF duty on any article
or commodity manufactured in the
United States and sold in foreign coun-
try more cheaply than in the United
States.
The republican congress clearly showed
that the arraignment made by the demo-
cratic caucus was justified. In the re.
fusal Of this congress to provide the
people with any Of the relief demanded,
the republican congress provided proof.
if, indeed, proof was necessary, that the
republican party "is dominated and con-
trolled by the trusts and monopolies
which have the great industries OF our
country in their grasp"

last Thursday night Colonel Kekewieh,
having ascertained the whereabouts of
Commandant Albert's lager at Gruisfon-
TEN, sent men to capture it. The British
force arrived at daybreak and Immediately
stampeded the horses OF the Beers with
pompoms and well directed rifle fire.
The Beers were completely surprised, and
after short reply to the British attack
practically the total commando fell into
the hands OF the attacking force, who cap
tured l3l prisoners, including Command
ants Landrost and Potgieter and Cornet
Duflessis. Seven Beers were killed and II
wounded. Nearly all belonged to the
commando, the whole of
which is now practically accounted for.

in the affair, acting with great gallantry.
The British loss was 10 officers and men
wounded.

| He would also have a wider margin
given in the matter of cutting timber.
There is magnificent timber through
out the islands and it would be bene-
fetal to take much of it out. The
quantity which can be taken out now
by one concern is limited to 100, 900
cubic feet. He suggested that there
had been some public sensitiveness
on this point because of the interests
of the lumber and development COM
pany. In reply to Senator Culbertson,
Governor Taft said that he would not
advocate grants of land that can be
used for speculative purposes. but felt
that it would be necessary to allow
persons to acquire large bodies of
land in order to secure the develop
ment of the country. The conditions
there are. he said. entirely different
from what they are in the United
States. and it would be found that the
people would not be so prompt in
taking advantage of homestead law
as in the United States.

Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1902-03-14

In conclusion I will say the adoption
of the general law will deprive the
people of the right to elect all their
officers.
1t deprives each individual citizen of
the right to go before the people to be
elected to an Office.
It requires all subordinate officers to
toady to one individual called mayor.
1t opens the door wide for Doodle
and corruption as the mayor is the only
power to be feared.
Under the charter the common coun-
Gil is limited in its power of taxation,
under the general law the gate is wide
open for extravaganza.
If the general law is adopted, nearly.
if not all our ordinances will require
re.enacting and publication involving
the city in thousands Of dollars of ex-
pense.
The only safe course for the citizens
to pursue is to vote against something
he does not understand and retain that
law which has carried the city so sue
cessfully through the years of its in
fancy.
If the general law is adopted taxes
will be increased; we will have one
man government; no chance to vote
for officers, and will be the victim Of

THE GENERAL LAW.

| 4dE OEN G0AA AkaW W.
1t is an unknown venture.
We are entirely uninformed as 10 the
operation of the general law.
The general law provides that all
subordinate officers shall be appointed
by the mayor, and he may remove
them at will. This requires that all
city officers, except the council shall
be the creatures Of the mayor, and they
must look to it that they please him.
It throws the door wide open to
Doodle and corruption by giving one
man control Of the patronage.
The appointed officers are the crea-
lures of the mayor.
The mayor can remove all subordin-
ate officers at will, and his whim is sutti-
cient cause: This deprives all suboad-
mate officers of personal responsibility
to the city and makes them the mere
tools of the mayor. This is all wrong
and is not republican. It is wise for
the city to retain control and power in
itself. The mayor has the veto
power which ie no more advantageous
than his on.concurrence power under
the charter,
Under the general law ordinances
take effect on one publication and are
in effect before the citizen has had any
notice of it's existance. This is all
wrong to require citizen to obey an
ordinance he has had no notice of.
Under the general law the city JUS
tice has exclusive jurisdiction of all
violations of the city ordinances and
there is no change Of venue or trial by
jury, and, be the justice ever 20 pre-
JUDGED there is no way to avoid it. This
is all wrong.
The general law allows the city coun-
Gil to make changes in individual as.
sessments without notice to the party
assessed. This is all wrong and takes
mans property without any oppor.
tunity of being heard.
Under the general law the mayor and
common council may vote themselves
large salaries.
If we have outgrown the charter it is
strange that Mr.. Rudolph does not
point out the shortness of our clothes.
The school system of the city finds
the law of its existence in the city
charter and Immediately on the repeal
of that charter every school Office is at
once vacated and our schools paralyzed,
and its very doubtful whether the gen.
eral education law will apply to our
school without an additional act of the
legislature.
