These selfish allies oppose the granting
o! such concessions not because 1t would
iniure their business and lessen their
Immediate profts-for they admit and
boast that it would not do so. No;
their opposition is inspired by greedy
desire for enormous future gains. to be
had through veritable rape of the is
land Of Cuba. They propose, these
sugar mOnOpolists do, to withhold con-
cessions from Cuba until the island is
ruined-until plantations and relineries
are abandoned and their owners bank
rupt. Then they will purchase all such
properties at the merest fraction of their
real value. Finally they will in one way
or another drag Cuba into the Union rs
a state for they expect that the ruined
Cubans will either be glad to accept
annexation as their only hope for indus
trial salvation or will revolt again, as
they did against Spanish commercial
oppression, and thus compel the United
States TO go in forcibly and take control
Of the island. That is the scheme of
the allied sugar trusts, first to ruin
Cuba and then to steal the island.
This is u most interesting statement
coming from an eminent Republican
authority.
II it is 1.-The scheme of the allied
sugar trusts first to ruin Cuba and then
10 steal the island is that not the
scheme OF the Republican party rs
represented by the attitude Of the Re-

The Foreigner Advantage.

A subscriber, having noted the claim
that American trust-made goods are
sold to foreign consumers at less price
than charged the home consumer, asks
THE Commoner to give the domestic
and foreign prices Of number Of arti.
Giles. The information sought by this
subscriber may be found In speech de-
livered in the house by Mr.. Gambler Jr.,
Of Mississippi on May 80, 1902. Mr..
Gambler said
LAS the representatives Of the Amer.
lean people the trusts deserve and
should receive no consideration at our
hands. They grant the people no quar-.
ter, and they should be granted none
by the peoples representatives. They
are selling their goods cheaper to for
eigners than to home folks. They are
therefore more considerable of and kinder
to foreigners than to Americans. To
prove the truth of this assertion ! give
the prices-domestic and foreign-of a
few articles in daily use by almost every
farmer, as follOws.'

10 Ruin and TO Steal.

The Republican congress had evident

Governor Davis Careful In MOnkeying
With Reese Higgins.
From the Russellyille Record.

From the Russellyille Record.
Probably no two men are better
known in Pope county than jeff Davis
and Reese Higgins therefore anything
about either Is interesting to Pope
county readers. 1t is an open secret
that Reese Higgins secured his present
position through no influence of JEFF
Davis, despite the fact that the governor
tells about how he put Reese Higgins in
charge of the penitentiary. The facts
are, so we are reliably informed, Davis
had another man slated for the position,
but when be found ont that Higgins al
ready had the majority Of the board, he
quietly fell in line and voted for Higgins
Shortly after taking charge Of the peui.
Tertiary Davis demanded OF Higgins
that he discharge the man who was In
charge OF the state s electric light plant
and give the position TO Davis brother.
in.lsw. Higgins refused fatty to listen
to such proposition. The electrician
was competent. capable and In every
way Trustworthy. and he could see no
good reason to turn over the state 9
electric light plant, worth many thons-
ands Of dollars to a man who, the gov.
ernor' own father said, WAS not capa.
BILE of running 1t, This refusal OF
Higgins has been ranking In Davis
breast ever since and he has lost no op-
portunity to belittle the manage ment Of
the penitentiary. II Is also reported
that he notified Higgins that his resigna-
ton would be accepted, but Higgins ig-
nored the demand.
Last spring when Higgins went down
to the Dallas reunion, Davis sent his
br0ther-in-law out to the penitentiary
and ordered that he be put to work.
Higgins, upon his return, informed the
brother-in.law that his services were
not needed. Since then Davis and
Higgins have not been on the best of
terms and II Is currently reported that
only the fear Of Higgins strong right
arm has deferred our windy governor
from saying and doing more than he
has. Indeed they came near having
blows on the train from Little Rock to
Russellville two weeks ago, and only
| for the interference Of mutual friends
Higgins would likely have given the
governor q good licking. But that
another story, as story writer's say.

Bryan Considers Presidents West Point
Speech BlOOdthirsty.

W.. Bryan accuses President Roose-
welt Of going beyond the limit In his ad.
vocacy Of strenuous life, and calls him
to task for his utterances In bis speech
at West Point. In bis paper Mr.. Bryan
says:
president Roosevelt In his recent
speech at West Point. In fit Of animal
enthusiasm, said: "A good soldier must
not only be willing to fight, but must be
anxious to fight. ! do not want to have
anything to do with him II he does not
when he said this he turned light
upon his inner self and revealed moral
deformity which must shock his friends.
II a good soldier must he anxious to
fight, then 1t morally follows that an
administration which desires to develop
good soldiers should surround cadets
with influences calculated to infuse into
them fighting spirit, an eagerness for
blood-letting. II the president really
means what he says we may expect his
second term, If he has one, will be made
forever illustrious by the inauguration
ofla new regime at the Military Acad.
envy and in the army.
THE Ten Commandments and the
Sermon From the Mount will be dis.
carded and the yellow-back novel sub.
stituted; for thou shalt not kill and
blessed are the peace-makers could
have no place in the school designed to
train men to be anxious to fight.
1T is unfortunate for the country
that the president should have held be.
fore its embryo soldiers the lowest,
rather than the highest. idea Of military
life. There have been many great sol.
diers during the last 300 years-great
Christian soldiers, who have loved
peace, and yet who have in the hour of
peril won glory for their country and
themselves These should be eulogized
and emulated Evil and evil only can
come from idealizing the bloodthirsty
soldier. -

Roosevelt Urged to Exercise the Right
Of Eminent Domain.

NEW YORK.. Aug. l2. President
Roosevelt has In his hands plan sub
United by Martin Dolphin, former pres
ident of the International Order OF Rail-
road and Commercial Telegraphers, by
which, Mr.. Dolphin thinks, the strike
In the coal region can be ended.
President Roosevelt referred the pro.
position to the encouragement $ de.
partment and it Is now being considered
by II. NJ Hoyt, acting Encouragement,
The plan Is to have the government
exercise the right OF eminent domain
and seize certain number OF the mines
and operate them for the purpose OF
taking ont MI the hard coal required by
The Van Buren press., 1902-08-16

the government in its various buildings,
on the ships of the navy department
and for all governmental purposes.
The right of the government 10 In
tervene In strike which interferes In
any way with governmental functions
was proved. Mr.. Dolphin contends, by
President Cleveland 8 action in the
Chicago strike of 1893. when he ordered
ont United States troops to keep the
strikers from interfering with the trans.
pOrtation of the mails.
In the present case, intervention OF
the kind he advocates, Mr.. Dolphin
says, would also break the backbone OF
the strike by forcing the operators to re-
sumo work in all the mines.

The REVIEW had a visit yesterday from John W. Ganzhorn. He and the editor of the REVIEW were boys to- gether in Tucson years ago. Johnny some five years ago, and when about fourteen years of age, slipped away from Tucson and enlisted in the navy and was aboard ship eight or nine months, until his father could secure his discharge. He was not long out of the navy until he enlisted with a vol unteer regiment and went to the Phil ippines, where he served eighteen months and received an honorable dis charge. Mir. Ganzhorn arrived in Bis bee two weeks ago and Is now working for the Bisbee Improvement company. He says he thinks the Philippines an excellent country for a white man to stay away from.
