ing the year 1902 for carrying the
mail is being commented upon even
in some of the great dailies. 1t is a
fact known to all newspaper men that
newspapers are carried by the ex-
press companies on the same trains
and often in the very same cars for
one-half cent per pound when the
government gets one cent and yet that
is the class of matter the Madden AMI
Loud gang claim produces the whole
of the deficit. If the express compa-
MES can carry newspapers for a half
cent per pound and make a profit, it
should follow that the government
could carry ther. at cent a pouni
and not make deficit providing that
the same rate was charged for their
transportation that the express COM
panies pay.
The truth which the great dailios
have long refused to publish is that
the railroads have SO dominated the
republican party that it has paid to
them three or four times as much as
the service was worth and much more
than the roads charge private corpor-
ations for the same service.
The Independent in the last few
years has many times called attention
to the exorbitant amounts paid to the
railroads and perhaps that is one OF
the reasons why Madden has let loose
the dogs of war upon it so often. II
the facts which this paper has pub
lished had not been suppressed by the
dailies, the wrong would have been
righted long ago. The correspondents
of those papers in Washington have
known all about it for the editor of
The Independent has seen them pres
ent when the facts Of the excessive
charges of the railroads were laid be-
fore committees of the senate and
house. He knows that some of these
correspondents did report the testi-
mony given and sent it to their pa
pers and he knows that it never ap-
peared in print. Such papers as that
would never be troubled by Madden if
they should mail half million extra
copies at pound rates.

VICTORY is NIGH

For some time The Independent has
been saying that revolt against the
worship of money was near at hand.
The signs continue to multiply. Even
the Chicago Tribune has at last edi-
torially repeated what this paper has
been saying for years and when The
Independent was saying it the Tri-
bune was engaged in denouncing all
such papers as this as anarchists and
socialists. At that time the captains
of industry" were the idols of the
Tribune which it worshiped and
fawned upon. Now it says:
''The object Of all eheyaliers

Low DOWN POLITICS

The populists have had no criticism
to make of the agricultural depart
ment and until lately it has not been
used as political machine to advance
the interests of the republican party.
There is no more disreputable thing
than using that department and the
literature that is paid for by all the
people than to make its bulletins and
reports a vehicle for t. e advancement
and defense of the most disreputable
doctrines of plutocracy and imperial
ism. That was what was done in the
June crop report published by the

A great many things may result
from the postoffice Investigations az
Washington not at all contemplated
when the thing began. The populists
have been continually calling atten-
ton to the excessive rates paid to the
railroads for carrying the mails. The
fact that the enormous sum of s60.-

promises and unfair dealing. of
wealth which others have created.
The big ones manage to do 1t
without coming in conflict with
the law. The little ones are
scooped up in the net and dumped
into the bait box"
What a mighty change is here! The
Independent is no longer "a voice cry
ing in the wilderness" as it was for
SO many years. A great mass of peo-
pie, and among them some Of those
who we're then demanding the heads
OF all modern John the Baptists, are
beginning to preach the same gospel
thai The Independent has been preach
ing all the time. So it says to the
true apd tried who have come all the
way over the trail: "Cheer up. The
day of victory draws nigh
1t has even occurred to the Tribune
that all the syndicates put together
have not created one dollar of wealth.
The wealth was created by those who
toll and the Morgan syndicates have
simply been engaged in gathering it
to themselves. 1t even intimates that
Morgan and all like him are nothing
but common liars, who by means of
lying have been engaged in robbing
the PEOPLE. Listen to it:
"The INSCRIPTIONS person who
takes dozen or more plants,
some of them valuable and some
worthless, consolidates them, and
issues against them bonds and pre-
ferreG and common stock whose
face value is from three to ten
times the value of the plants and
offers his securities to the public
with assurances that they are
worth their face, knows they are
not and never will be.
But few months ago this class of
individuals, in the opinion of the Tri-
bune, were great captains of indus
try" whose brains were making this
nation a world power, and it held
them up as models for the youth
of the land to pattern after. What
has happened? The Tribune sees the
end approaching.

rOPULIsTs AND PUBLIC OWNERSHIP

4oFoLAS1o AMI fODLlS ~ W n Eiss n 1T
From the very beginning the pop
ulists have taken the position that
there were some things in any civil
lied community that must be owned
IL common and some things that must
be the private property of the individ-
ual. The streets of a city and the
reads in the country must be held in
collective ownership. The personal
belongings of every individual must
be private property. There is no man
of sound mind who will deny this gen.
eral proposition. When it comes to
considering what other things should
be owned in common and what by in
dlviduals, the differences arise. The
socialists claim t,at all means of pro-
duction and distribution should be
owned in common anl that takes in
all manner of property. The popul-
lists advocate the public ownership Of
all those things in which the public as
a whole is directly interested. That
includes the telegraphs, telephones,
railways, postoffice system and the
educational system. Further than
that in public ownership the populists
for the present refuse to go.

authority of the secretary OF agTicul-
ture." In that "crop report" there is
published a statement concerning the
Philippines which has no place in
such an official document and is as
PARTISAN as anything that ever ap-
peared in the republican press of this
country as the following extracts will
show:
"The people (of the Philippines)
almost universally are favorable
to American occupation ald gov
ernment; they are more prosper
GUS and contented under our hon
est and equitable administration OF
their affairs than they have ever
been before.
After all the official reports and at
ter the appropriation of 100000 to
keep them from actual starvation, tn
publish such statement as that In
the official crop report, is about as low
Gown politics as was ever discovered.
But there are other statements jus:
as absurd. One of them is this:
II consider the climate ideal the
country wholly attractive and the
people kindly and we'll disposed,
though it cannot be denied that
centuries of oppression tave de-
veloped traits of hypocrisy and
treachery that time alone can
eradicate"
The real animus of this is shown in
another paragraph which is as fol-
lcws:
'This is a country of wonderful
possibilities. Labor is cheap and
cost of production in every direc-
ton low; and, while the native la
borer is apt to be imp-oviient,
there are thousands of Chinese
here who can be employed at very
low wages and who maize the best
workmen as we'll as the most
faithful. This virgin field will not
remain virgin very long; the op-
portunities are too great and 1av-
orable results too certain to be
neglected"
That fellow has scheme OF ex-
ploitation and the agricultural depart
ment is used to do his advertising for
him.

STRIKES ARE USELESS

There has been a craze for strikes
among the workingmen. At first the
strikers won, but of late many have
failed. The strike of the Fall River
mill workers has failed and all the
hands have gone back to work at the
old rate after losing over million
of dollars in wages. If the mania for
strikes continues it will be the ruin
of the trade unions in this country.
into the unions who have no concep-
tion of the principles underlying them
and grieyous things have been done
by the votes of these new members.
Of late the leaders of brains among
the unions some very sound advice,
but many of the unions failed to heed
it The fact should be pressed home
to these wage-workers that strikes,
even if successful, settle nothing. II
the rate of wages is raised, the cost OF
living increases at greater ratio and
the burden comes right back upon the
wage-worksrs themselves. Nothing is
gained.
If the condition of the wage-workers
is made permanently better it must
be by some other method than raise
in wages. These men must take an
interest in government. They must
think out some plan for the more
equitable distribution of wealth. They
must vote for those men who will in
sist On passing such laws as will de-
stroy special privileges. The bank
ers, the railroads, the manufacturers
and every division of the wealthy
classes have accumulated their wealth
by special privileges. Before the
great franchises were given away and
the other special privileges were
granted, there were no strikes AMI
no labor unions. The granting of
these special privileges made labor
unions necessity. The conditions Of
labor will never be better until the
laborer learns to vote for his own in
terest instead of the interest of the
classes who despoil him of the wealth
that he creates That is what labor
Unions must learn. Let them stop
all the efforts to revent an Increase
o. production and instead thereof bend
every effort to increase production.
Then see to it that the wealth that is
produced is equitably distributed.
