LOCAL NOTES zs sSSs'" Ii: city t' and a" eoa s;:

A great deal of excitement was
caused this morning by the report
that Cornelius Anderson, father OF
J ]. Anderson of this city, had
wandered ava? from his home near
Tanner switch north of this city.
AS the I'D gentleman was more
than eighty.seven years OF age it
was feared that he might have per
ished. He left the home of his son,
Charles Saturday evening to 60 to
his own home about quarter of Il
mile distant. In the dark, he lost
his way and wandered about for
several hours finally landing at
Scipio where he spent the rest of the
night and part of the next day at
the home of "a friend. The old gen.
tlenan's relatives were greatly dis
tressed until they discovered him
safe and sound next d =.

CONTROLLING BOTH PARTIES

DR.. c. F. Taylor, editor of the Medi-
cal World, makes few remarks that
are we'll worth repeating. After say
ing that he was "born a republican, :"
he adds: "a public conscience and
sense of justice and right are arising
that must successfully oppose the
domination of corporations, trusts and
other concentrated capitalistic inter-
ests. Chattel slavery was tangible, in
a certain limited section, and its de-
tenders were brave and above board
fighters. The new enemy is in our
midst, is cunning, and frequently hid
den like a snake in the grass. The
policy of this enemy has been to
secretly contribute money to, and con-
troll. both of the great political parties.
Then it is sure Of victory. It's chief
exploits have been, unfortunately,
through the republican party, using
the good name and glorious past of

that party to further its own selfish
ends-using patriotism, "old glory"
and sectional differences to serve its
selfish ends. Many in both parties
lave served party, losing sight Of
principle. This party adhesion has
been of great service to the new en-.
emy that knows no party nor patriots
ism except personal power and az
grandizement. Man, of us have be-
come slaves to party, and all of us
have become slaves to this new op-'
preston. Let us burst the bonds OF
party. and open oul eyes to new con-
ditions, as civilization is constantly
developing them, and insist on eco
nomic justice to the people,"

A QUESTION OF INTEREST

The Socialist. of Seattle. Wash, Is
responsible for he following bit Of
convincing" argument:
A local politician rushed into my
room and shouted:
Burgess, ] want you to vote the
democratic ticket"
'.Why?" / asked
Because" he replied "the republic
cans of this town ere corrupt as HI
and will steal everything in sight.
"Well,' said I, 1T makes no differ
ence to me If they do"
WHAT said he, in establishment;
don't you want good government,
economical government, pure govern
ment?" a
Come" said, and led the way to
an eminenee near by where we had
view Of the entire city, and then
pointed out to him the evidences Of
wealth there before us and said: Il
own not one cent Of this vast wealth,
few of my class own any. Now why
should we care which set of thieves
possesses this wealth."
My friend was silent for several
minutes and ther said:
Il never thought of this before, but
| shall study this phase of the sub
ject"
Recently this man bought Marks
Capital" and if he masters this he
will know that the wage-worker as a
class Is not interested in taxation,
pure government, economical govern
ment, nor in just government as un-
derstood by capitalists. We are only
interested in abolishing the wage sys-
TEN.
A frank statement and well put.
Now, on the other hand, why should
any man who works for himself be in
terested in "abolishing the wage sys-
temp" It's a poor rule that won't
work both ways. The farmers, for ex-
ample, ARE interested in taxation and
these questions which are Of no mo-
ment to the wage-workers, If we are
to believe the Socialist. How can the
farmers have anything in common
with socialism?
The independent., 1903-10-15

ship he next devoted himself to ex-
tolling the gold democrats and telling
what services they had rendered the
country, informed his audience that
gold was the great means by which
elasticity" was produced in the cur
rency and finally declared the govern
ment now controls the volume of pa
per money and that it would continue
to control it.
That speech was telegraphed all
over the country as great speech and
printed in the Chicago and other dali
lies everywhere as an evidence of the
craftsmanship of Senator Allison.
There is no mystery about the con-
tinual praise of such senators as Alli-
son, Aldrich and five or six Others
They are the men who always stand
by the national banks, the tariff graft
ers, the railroads and the trusts. The
subsidized dailies make it a point to
keep their names constantly before
the people and forever repeat the
statement that these are the really
great men of these United States.
If an ordinary congressman had
made the speech that Allison did at
Clinton, it never would have been
printed in the papers and would have
been looked upon by the audience
that heard it as very weak effort
to make some excuse for the extor-
tions of the trusts. The consequence
is that the deluded people who read
only the great dailies are constantly
kept voting for their own exploitation.
The moral of this history is: Do ev-
erything that you can to extend the
circulation of those papers that talk
sense and print the truth.
The independent., 1903-10-15
GOD AND MORALITY PARTY

1t is passing strange that society
has become so degenerated that the
most prominent men in the country
can appear before audiences and lie
worse than horse thief, without los
ing standing in the church or the
community in which they live. Think
OF the moral condition Of man who,
without the least hesitancy, will lie
like. Secretary Shaw did in a speech
that he made at Akron, o., on the 10th
OF this month, in which he said:
THE plan proposed by the mi
nority party is to throw our COM
mercial doors wide open for the
free importation of the products
of foreign labor Members of that
party insist that if we do this we
will of necessity have unrestricted
access to the markets of other
countries. They urge that if we
will but allow Europe to clothe us,
furnish us our glass, our earthen-
ware, our hardware, our steel rails,
our structural iron. and everything
else we produce, we will thus Sc
cure a most wonderful export
trade
No member of the minority party"
nor any other person ever made any
such statements, and Secretary Shaw
knew there was not word Of truth in
the statement when he made it. Is
there any wonder that politics is "a
dirty pool when members of the cab
met, as soon as they get out in cam
paign, will lie at rate that would
make back-ally crap shooter envious.
Such exhibitions of mendacity by
members of the cabinet, senators and
others in high official positions, have
a degenerating effect upon the whole
population. No English politician ever
so disgraces himself and his nation.
1t is vice indulged in only by leaders
of the great God and morality party
of these United States.
