POpULIsT WEALTH.

The Independent has heard moth
ing from Jerry Simpson for a long
time. but it is inclined to believe that
Jerry is all right, as the great dailies
every once in while deem 1t neces-
sary to announce that Jerry is now a
plutocrat, having fine ranch in New
Mexico and is interested in a great
irrigation scheme. One of the nasty
tricks of the dailies is to always an
nounce, whenever populist shows H.
nancial ability and prospers in busi-
ness, that he has turned plutocrat.
The purpose is To spread the idea that
no one can be populist unless he Is
wild-eyed and poverty-stricken. The
truth Is that there In more wealth In
the hands OF populists In Nebraska
than In either of the old parties. The
wealth OF the great corporations which
dominates the republican party in Ne
braska, Is not owned by the voters OF
that party. but by the plutocrats Of
the east.

adopted in this country in regard to
all foreign goods sent here and then
the tariffs should be lowered so that
Americans can get the goods at the
same price they are sold to foreign
ers. Without doubt, now that Canada
has shown them how. all European
governments where the steel trust and
other trusts have been dumping"
their goods, will soon follow the lead
of Canada That will effectually stop
this international Rockefeller plan of
crushing out competition.

The statesmen of Canada seem to
have found solution of the practice
Of dumping" foreign goods on the
market below the price charged for
them in the country of their produc-
ton. That has been one of the great
arguments for high and prohibiloiy
tariffs In this country. The protec-
tlonists have always claimed that IL
tariffs were reduced In this country,
England and Germany would dump"
their products upon this country at
such low figures that our manufac-
turers would be driven out Of busi-
ness, and then those countries would
raise them to such point as to rccoup
themselves
That our manufacturers have been
selling goods 10 foreigners for from
20 10 10 pee cent less than they sold
The same goods 10 Americans. no IN

CITY INsOLENCE.

The lack of good breeding among
city folk is much more common than
among the dwellers upon the farms
A city greenhorn will go out to the
country so ignorant of nature that he
can't tell a rye field from a crop of
timothy, or a Spanish jack from a
Shetland pony. but he will be treated
with courtesy. He will not be sub
jected to sneers or sarcasm on account
Of his CT ass ignorance. When the per-
son from the country comes to the
city. if he makes mistakes concern
ing the ridiculous and silly conven-
tons Of the highly artificial life led
there, he is subject to sneers of the
city folk and is fortunate il they are
not downright insulting in their man
ner There is in truth no more ignor-
ant creature on earth than the Ordl-
nary city dweller. He is geneI rally
possessed of no knowledge at all ex-
cept that pertaining to his special
calling. The insolence of many of
those who go to the country for sum-
mer vacations is almost uncomfortable,
and it is reflected in the cartoons in
the daily papers, which heap all sorts
of insults upon farmers.

GODS TRUSTEES

Rockefeller has bought up all the
land adjoining him at TarrytOWn and
is still continuing the process. Last
week he paid 100000 for little farm
that he wanted. 1t is said that he has
spent $10,000,000 of the money that
the poor housewives of the United
States who use kerosine have been
robbed of by extortionate prices, In
extending and adjoining his estate at
that place. An assessor there tried
to make him pay taxes on the value
Of his property like other people, but
Rockefeller went into court and by the
influence of his millions overawed the
court, had the assessor removed and
another appointed who would fix the
taxes to suit Rockefeller himself.
Here is another man who is working
under the direct authority of God.
The thing that troubles The Indepen-
dent is trying to learn why God should
always choose such heartless villains
as Baer and Rockefeller as his spe-
cial agents on earth. 1t seems to be
one of those things that no pop can
find out.
