that Aldrich planned the work of the
senate during the special session with
out consultation with any other re-
publican senator, and when they
heard OF the fact they instantly obeyed
without making the slightest protest.
Aldrich is only another name for the
money power and the trusts. The fol-
lowing is verbatim report of what
occurred in the United States senate:
Senator LODGE desire, Mr. Presi-
dent, to bring up little matter
Senator Bacon-But, Mr.. President,
as | understand it, there is an agree
ment IN the senate by which no mat
tiers shall be considered until Deem
Der 16, except the Cuban reciprocity
bill and unopposed combinations.
Senator LODGE am surprised, Mr..
President, at such a statement. /
know Of no such agreement.
Senator Hale-Nor L.
Senator Cullom-Nor I.
Senator Allison-Nor l.
Senator Gorman-Why, Mr.. Presi-
dent, desire to express my surprise
now. The senate has made such an
agreement and the senators on this
side OF the chamber perfectly under
stand 1t and are willing to abide by it.
BY this time a dozen leaders were
on their feet on the republican side.
Senator Teller. who rose on the demo-
cratic side just as Mr.. German fin
ished, was recognized by the chair.
Senator Teller-For the information
Of the senate ! desire to say that such
an agreement was made by the senior
senator from Rhode Island, Mr.. Aid
rich.
Whereupon Senators Lodge, Hale,
Cullom, Allison and seven ~other lead
ers quietly and submissively sat down.
Only Mr.. Elkins of West Virginia re-
manned standing.
The president pro tem-Tbe senator
from West Virginia.
Senator Elkins-Of course, such all
agreement must be kept, but it seems
to me that the senator on this side Of
the chamber who makes it should be
present to see that it is kept.

Drated acrobatic performance in con-
nection with the moon. There are
other ways of disposing of ballot
than by giving it to either Cleveland
or Roosevelt.-Clay Center Dispatch.
Good for you, brother. There is
nothing so tiresome as the assumption
by some reform papers that the peo-
pie must choose next year between
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Roosevelt. The
woods are full of populists of the old
school who still stand for the prin-
ciples of the Omaha platform and
who will not support any man VINO
favors wealth as against men.-F. G.
Johnson, in "Ihe Better Way" Min.
neapolis, Kas
The meeting of the national COM
mittees OF the two wings of the peo-
pies party will be held in st. LOUIS,
February %, 1904. A time and place
will be fixed for holding a national
convention. AT that convention nomi-
nations for president and vice presi-
dent will be made. Why should any
populist vote for either Roosevelt or
Cleveland? Cutting Off ones nose to
spite his face is poor business.

themselves for this misunderstanding
between themselves and socialists.

say they are only half-baked popul-

The Independent views it, populism
occupies a middle ground between the

QuINBY REPLIES
Answers can Old Socialist" Through the
Columns of The Independent

Editor Independent: | enclose you
a postal card received day or two
ago, postmarked Macon, Ga. 1t reads
as follows:
"Your communication in the Ne
braska Independent, Whats the MAJ
ter with the socialist party? Doesn't
that party appeal ''for human right
and natural justice?" Doesn't that
party propose to restore sovereignty
to the people?" Better get move on
you, Brother, and examine little
bit into the principles of socialism.
Don't take the sayso of the Nebraska
Independent That is strictly farm
ers' paper. Socialism is the workers
gospel. Just look into it for your
self and don't pay any attention to
anybody who speaks i'll of IT, Yours,
IAN OLD SOCIALIST.
Not to mention the lack of courage
in any man who fears to sign his
name isn't the amazing egotism of
the average socialist something to jar
you? He imagines that his A B G
philosophy of economic reform is the
ne plus ultra of social wisdom. He
thinks that all who do not see through
his dim eyes and who do not glance
along his little narrow channel are
ignorant of his wonderful system.
Any school boy can easily compre-
bend the childish doctrines of social
ism. AS for the socialist party, when
the socialists themselves prove to be
sufficiently imbued with their own
fallacies of the cooperative common
wealth" to agree to cooperate as
one party instead of several, then
they will have more reason to solicit
outsiders to come into 1t.
No, neither socialism nor the So
ciallst party appeal "for human rights
and natural Justice These are pro-
positions they cannot comprehend.
Even intelligent socialists do not
base their appeal upon human rights
and natural Justice" but upon what
they believe To be necessity. Even
the intelligent socialist seems AMI Is
ignorant of natural justice and nat
ural law, and for this reason he can
not comprehend a system based upon
these. He would rather substitute
statutory for natural law.
No, neither socialism nor the so
clalIst party would restore soysr-

 Secretary Hitchcock declares that che exhibit will eau that it should be.
