MR.. HILL IS "SICK
DR.. Bryan of Lincoln Diagnoses His
His Case. -n @
SANITY ATTITUDE DISCUSSED
Van SAINT, Says the COmmOner,
Should Plant Himself on the
Democratic Platform.

Special to The Journal. ~.-.....--
Lincoln Neb.. Jan. 10.-Under the cap
ton "Hill's Tempting OFFER w. J.
Bryan in the Commoner discusses the.
ill-Governor Van SAINT controversy as
follows:
The press dispatches announce that Mr..
Hill, the financial magnate who controls
the Northern Pacific and Great Northern
railroads, intends to meet the rising protest
against the consolidation by making
terial reduction in rates. This adroit move
on the part of Mr.. Hill will deceive many of
the unwary and will be Immediately utilized
by corporation politicians. 1t ought not, how
ever, to influence any thoughtful and patriotic
citizen. That monopoly can be benevolent
is true; that it may make concessions when
it has something to gain thereby is probable,
but that it will in the long run be safe or
helpful is impossible. king has been
known to make concessions to his subjects
in order to save his life, and some kings
have been known to feel a genuine interest
in the welfare of all their people, but can q
monarchy be defended on these grounds?
To understand monopoly, whether it be
railroad monopoly or some private monopoly,
| one only needs to know human nature. HUI
man nature is so constructed that that arbi-
trary power in the industrial field, as in the
domain Of government, is SO likely ITO be
abused that it cannot be justified or de-
Tended Governor Van SAINT will, of course,
understand that Mr.. Hill will be quite a
different railroad president after he secures
legal right to control the traffic of the
northwest, from what he is now, when he is
| trying to secure this right, and the governor
will be justified in quoting old saying thas
has been applied to many people in the past,
! is applicable to many who are alive now, and
will not lose it's force in years to come
| namely,
| when the devil was sick, the devil saint
would be;
When the devil was we'll, the devil saint
was he.''
| Mr.. Hill is quite sanity just now because
| he is sick. He is taking the people into his
| confidence because he needs them in his
business, but when Mr.. Hill is once secure
| in his monopoly he will not need the people
as he does now, and then he will take
| them in''-but not into his confidence. And
| even if Mr.. Hill is so good man as to be
entirely safe, it must be remembered that
when he dies-as die some day he must-he
may be succeeded by cold and selfish man,
who will use the monopoly which Mr.. Hill is
| trying to secure without any consideration
| whatever for the peoples welfare.
| Governor Van SAINT ought to plant hins alf
| upon the plank of the democratic platform
which declares a private monopoly to be in
| defengible and intolerable. If he will take
| this position he can appeal with confidence
| to all democrats In the northwest and these
! with a. few republicans will give him ma
| jority.
