There SENS to be an effort among
the wiser plutocratic leaders to keep
under cover the things that they OK
pect to accomplish at the next session
of congress, yet enough has been re-
vealed to snow what may be expected.
In TIE first place there is to be
savage attack on the rural free deliv-
|ery system. That has appeared in sew
eraI places at almost the same time.
Among the most prominent Of these
ATTACKS was made by that powerful
plutocratic sheet, the New York Com
mercial, which devotes almost whole
issue to it.
The railroads must have more blood
also. They have concocted a new bill
of lading. which forces the shipper to
sign a contract, many provisions OF
which are in violation of the common
law, practically raises freight 20 per
cent and makes the bills, in the inter-
ests of the banks non-negotiable. Here
tofore when shipper got his bill of
lading, he could take it to bank and
get an advance on it. Now he must
wait until his goods are sold and the
money returned to him. If he must
have money in the meantime he will
have to find other security.
The New York banks must have
more blood. 1t is the opinion of many
leading men in the east as we'll as in
the west that a branch banking act will
be passed at the next session.
Here in this state and in some 9TH
ers, the railroads have refused to pay
their taxes, rendering only part of what
is due. They have attacked in the
courts the elevator law, the poor make
shift that it is, and will have an ele-
vatOr trust all complete in due time so
that they can fleece the farmers out of
from to 10 cents bushel on their
grain. That is the way it will be all
over the country. The tiger has tasted
blood, and 1T makes it only the more
savage.

governmental action upon certain
things to which they are all agreed. To
say that such citizens are bound by any
ethical or moral principle to remain
members OF the party, vote for its can
didates and support It's policies, or
obey it's orders, is layi, 6 the founda-
ton for the overthrow Of free govern
ment. There is not and never can be
any such thing as loyalty" to the
party. Loyalty means faithful to ltl@,
true to an established government"
and as party an not make law and
is not a government, there can be no
such thing as loyalty to it and no
moral quality can be assigned to per-
son because he abando IS it or remains
with it.
Ii a person is bound to support a
party, or If the opinion is created that
he violates some moral law when he
leaves it the foundation is laid for
the overthrow of every government
which is c rducted by political par
ties. Once get man in political par
ty by presenting views with which he
agrees, tt change the whole princi-
pies, nominate candidates who are OBJ
posed to the principles which induced
the man to enter the party, and then
claim that the man is morally bound
to be regular" that if he refuses he
has done something disreputable, is as
damnable program as the devil ever
invented. It means that rascals and
traitors have only to get the machinery
of party in their hands and no matter
what evil they propose to do, the citi-
zen is helpless. But that is the doc
trine that the democrats have been
preaching in this last campaign. A
good many thousand accepted it, and
voted 'er straight"
Mr.. Watson's statement is clear. con-
else and straightforward. Every DEM
ocrat should read it, for it states a
number of facts which are unpleasant
to hear, but true as gospel. Whether
the democratic party is to be conserva-
tive or radical, whether it is to be So
cialistic or individualistic, it must
make it's choice and then consistently
be one thing or other The policy Of
the last lew years, if persisted in,
must end in ruin. The peoples con-
fidence can not be gained by party
that will not stand still long enough to
submit to defnition.-Press- Post, Co.

1t has been the habit in recent years
for the republicans ito point with
pride" to the increase of deposits in
the savings banks, from which the
conclusion is drawn, in their usual logi-
cal way, that the poor of the United
States were all rich. Statistics Just
published show that the deposits in the
savings banks of the United States are
less per capita than in Australia, Dem
mark, Germany, New Zealand, Norway
or Switzerland.

The railroad managers, after takins
one good look at the republican "land
slide" have unanimC usly decided l.la
it is their innings and are preparinf
for high old time They have pre-
pared what they call a uniform bill
Of lading." The effect of it will berthe
most radical piece of highway robbery
that the roads have engaged in for !
long time. 1t is summarized as fol.
lows.
The recommendation of the uni
form bill of lading committee,
which carriers in the territory
mentioned are about to adopt, con-
stitutes most radical regulations
governing the shipment of com
modities, and may be summarized
briefly as follows:
(a). In the event the shipper
elects to ship his commodities sub
ject to the common law liability
of q carrier, rate of 20 per cent
in advance of the published rate is
to be paid for the transportation.
tb) Making bills of lading mot
negotiable 1t will be difficult, if
not impossible, to obtain advances
on bills of lading which are
marked mot negotiable
(c). Requiring shippers, by sig
nature, to assent to onerous con-
ditions of shipment which have not
been heretofore enforced.
(d). Compelling the shippers
written assent that said conditions
are reasonable and just.
(e) Compelling the shipper to
bind himself and his assigns to the
several conditions which operate
largely to exempt the carrier from
its common law liability.
The, public have been notified
that the above mentioned rules or
conditions become operative Jan.
l. 1905, and they will consequently
go into effect under the provisions
of the law on that date.
Even the mullet-heads will see The

Frederick the Great


The statu of Frederick the Great
was unveiled at Washington with all
the formalities and ceremonies that
are observed on such occasions in
Europe. The speech of President
Roosevelt was we'll written and with
one exception not markedly monar-
chistic. 1t was perhaps unavoidable
that compliments should be paid to
the emperor of Germany, but when the
next day the papers announced that
German boy had been sent to prison
for six months for criticising some
thing that HolhenZollern had done
200 years ago, the compliments paid
the present Holhenzollern as modern
ruler seem like sarcasm. The whole
thing was ill-advised and out of place
in a republic, and the kaiser should
have been informed that while Amer
leans have the highest regard for the
German people" on account of their
love of liberty, their science and in
dustry, they have no regard at all for
kings and emperors or their system of
government, and that any gift that

A Radical Party


From every quarter of the union
comes the statement that there will be
a new alignment of parties. The Phil
adelphia Public Ledger says:
1t was after Monroes unanimous
reelection that the then republi-
can party became two parties
conservative and radical. Under
one form or another, these are the
two contending impulses in all po-
litical history. Judge Parker's
candidacy represented an ideal Of
conservative reform which aroused
no enthusiasm. The party in pow
err, with its apparently immobile
policy, sufficiently satisfied the ma
jority of conservatives; Parker in
no way satisfied the radicals. The
aggressive party must be radical,
and whether under Bryan or Wat
son or another, and whether called
democratic or by any other name,

away several cords of fuel and
wishes to have their depredations
upon his wood pile put to an end
and the guilty parties punished.

INJURED IN

Sustain Bad Bruises in
Runaway Accident.

A runaway team of horses yes
terday afternoon overturned a
carriage containing VIM. Blakely,
the Farley lum herman, and VIM.
Lyon, an employe Of Biakely &
Farley, causing the severe injury
of both men, who we're badly
bruised, although no bones were
broken. The two men started
out from Farley to drive TO a
nearby lumber camp when the
horses became frightened at
some object by the roadside and
started to run at the top of their
speed. Frenzied efforts to stop
the team were made but tt ey
were useless and at a turn in the
road the carriage overturned and
the men were thrown headlong
to the ground with hard force.
They we're assisted to Farley and
are at present at the Hotel
Blakely under the care of DR..
Henderson of Bemidii.
