THAT INDIAN INVESTIGATION.

The Leavenworth Times in view OF what has lately
ranspired in Washington in connection with what this
said last week INDUCES in the following observa-
tons and assertions. which have an emphatic ring:
The Wichita Eagle is under the impression that an
investigation Of the Indian department would pay
the trouble and for the stink which it would raise
The Times generally agrees with the Eagle hut in
this case believes that justice should be meted out to
those men now alive who swindling Indians out

GERMAN SOCIALISTS GAINING.

The gain of about 20 per cent in the number Of votes
poled by the Socialist party in Germany in the last cleo
ton must be considered in large the result Of
the general growth of population IN the German empire
and especially of the cities which have always been the
stronghOlds of radicasm in politics There are probably
least 10 per voters in the German cities
than there FIVE years ago for the great ceners
population averaged gain of not less than per cent
year in the decade previous TO the of 1900.
But German Socialism is only what would be consd-
cred moderate democracy in its immediate demands and
program in country like the United States The ulti-
mate principles and hopes Of Socialism are kept in the
background. in national campaigns As the Socialist
party grows in size becomes more moderate II is not
half fiery in its early days That is another
hopeful fact Meanwhile the Kaiser must realize that
very large part Of the people Of his empire are at enmty
with much Of his policy and many his pretensons and
methods.
