capital is but the accumulated product
of labor. Labor and capital are mutual

there be in such relation any proper

much the servant Of labor as labor is

It follows, of course, that any COM

q very elaborate account OF the tre-

the wonderful enthusiasm and demon
stration brought out over the endorse

WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST.

The Democratic presidential cam
paign IS beginning to warm up although
the convention will not be held until
July 9Th. Among the numerous
presidential candidates none seen to
receive more favor from Kansas Demo-
Gratis and people generally than Hon.
William r. Hearst, the able trust
opponent. editor and congressman Of
New York.
Mr.. Hearst's friends declare that he
is the logical candidate. He is forty.
one years old-young enough to be the
idol of the young man. He is man Of
great business capacity, of unblemlshed
integrity, Of great executive ability
He is loved by the wOrkingmen of the
country. He is respected and esteem
ed by the honest business men of the
country. He is Jetfersonian Demo.
crat and believes that Jefferson's
doctrines il applied to modern
problems will solve them. He supported
Cleveland with voice pen and money.
He supported Bryan twice and brought
all the influence of his mighty 1nstru-
mentalites in favor of the Democratic
cause when many had deserted the
party and it stood in sore need of
valiant championship.
1t is the contention OF Mr.. Hearst's
friends, and they think it is the clinch-
ing argument in his favor, that he can
carry not only New York, Connecticut,
New Jersey and the south, but in
addition he is the only one among all
these mentioned who can get the
necessary votes In the west. They say
He can carry California, Idaho, Nevada
South Dakota and Colorado surely,
and probably Illinois because of the
great laboring vote in that state His
New York friends believe that at the
proper time New York City and New
York State will declare for him.
Mr. Hearst, besides being a man of
great ability. has heart that beats
an sympathy with the people and is one
of the few real statesmen of the age.
No better fortune could come to the
American people than his omination
and subsequent election.

A REPUBLICAN PROTEST.

The klOWa News. Review was hot
number last week. The News-Revlew
is strong advocate of repubicanism
but it stands for clean methods. There
are three republican papers in Barber
cOunty-twO for the machine and
one against it. The News. Review is
the anti-machine paper and it has the
courage To show Its colors. It las
more readers thanI the two other re-
publican papers combined.
Here are a few excerpts from last
weeks issue:
Thousands of honest voters were
dlsfranchised and counted out by the
machine at the last election, and
Republicans were ignOmiuiously
slaughtered by the machine mana gers
individual interests. That is what
brought on the anti machine revo
luton. and will bring about the de-
feat of the party next fall if the old
methods and outrages are followed
up"
The people are up in arms against
the machine. Bossism. ostracism,
boodling and increased taxation to
feed horde of hungry boOdlers and
grafters to keep the machine going
have become unb3arable and it's
either a change for the better, or a
defeat for the party the rank and file
of the republican party and with
them thousands Of honest independ-
ent voters. are determined to accom-
plish in this campaign.
X
A few scheming ring leaders at
the Lodge, aud handful of hired
helpers in the various precincts is all
there is of the republican machine in
Barber county. There is not a pre-
cinct IN the county where the rank
and file of the party is consulted in
the management of party affairs or
the distribution of nominations for
public offices. A general turnout at
the primaries would change all of this,
and it Is now up to those who are
smarting and blesding under ringrule
to uproot the evil at the very beginning
of the campaign.
The rebellion in the republican
party against bossism. Pringleism,
grating and high taxes IS spread
ing with henomenal rapidity and
force all over the State. Barber
county Is firmly grasped by the clutch
es of the machine, but her bills ard
valleys ale growing and the distant
~rumblings of cyclone of Indignation
at the polls are coming nearer.
The machine may succeed to run the
primaries and county conventions, but
the days of ring rule, as we have had
to endure it in this county for a nun.
Der of years, are numbered, and the
bosses are trembling for the inevitable
result of the election.
The primaries are the fountain head
of all that is good or bad in politics.
VIII you stand idly by and let the
machine bosses and their tools run the
primaries to suit themselves, or will
you do your duty towards yourself,
your party and the people at large to
attend to them?

TRUST COMPANIES AND
THE CLEARING HOUSE

Recent Withdrawals from clearing house
relations leave only three trust companies
in New York city which up to this time
have not signifed their intention of sever
ing their connection with the associa ton.
The reason for this action is, of course,
the rule imposed a year ago by the clear
ing house, requiring trust companies to
maintain a fixed reserve. starting at 5
per cent and rising gradually to 10 per
cent, tho date for the maximum figure
having been set for June 1. next. At the
time the rule first became effective num-
her OF the trust companies refused to as
sent to it-at least in far utilization
with the clearing house was concerned
and withdrew Those which remained
gave no sign of disapproval when the
period for ~ per cent. reserve arrived.
but IL seems that 10 per cent. Is beyond
their official limit. a strange feature of
the case Is that not few OF the dissent
ing organizations frequently almost
constantly. carry cash reserve in excess
of the requirements of the clearing house,
yet they prefer to remain independent in
their operations The latest action was
precipitated without previous public notice,
and created great deal of talk in finan-
ciat circles--Tbe Financier.

THE PANAMA PAYMENT.

The Panama payment has passed into
history Forty million dollars have been
taken out of the United States treasury
and turned over to the special disbursing
officers of the United States, who are also
the fiscal agents of the Panama Canal
Company. AS incident of the transac-
ton s1S0oo.0O0 United States deposits were
withdrawn from New York banks at an
actual loss through the clearing house of
only s3.0O0.000. And this was taken out of
the treasury a few hours later, when $15.-
100000 was paid TO j. F. Morgan & Co. over
the counter of the subtreasury in 5000
and $4,000 gold certificates. AS the ac-
count stands the ten special deposit
tary banks have given up the United
States deposits of other banks that they
received March p, and some of them have
received deposits OF j. p. Morgan 81 Co.
aggregating $25,UOOOO.
Allowing for the S3.O00000 credit balance

now are S22 100000 better off than they

Balance of Trade.

We hear "A great deal nowadays about
the balance of trade and shall hear
more about il during the presidential cam
paigr. inasmuch the tariff is sure to be
one of the issues discussed. In a letter
sent to the Republican club of this city.
Mr.. Williams, the Democratic leader OF
the House of Representatives. says: PRO
tectfcnism is founded upon the balance
OF trade theory, which has been exploded
so often that IL seems curious. historically.
that it exists. even in foolish minds. at
this date The balance of trade theory
Is founded upon two ideas: first. that for
eigners are enemies, and second, that you
profit by all you sell and lose by all that
you buy.
Without entering at all into the partisan
side OF this discussion. IL is timely TO go
q little into the subject OF the balance of
trade and try 20 understand exactly what
II means. AS commonly understood the
balance OF trade Is the difference between
a nations imports and exports OF merchan-
disc. The value of the merchandise I'M
ported is subtracted from the value of the
merchandise exported. and If there is sur
plus OF exports. IL Is declared that there
Is balance OF trade I'm favor of the coun-
try. If the imports are larger, then IL is
declared tnat the balance of trade is adj
verse to the country Ii has been held for
centuries that an adverse balance of trade
was injurious 10 a nation. and that IL
would lead TO disaster unless conditions
were speedily changed. In fact. the ac-
ceptance OF this theory has been the cause
OF many a bloody war, and even to-day IL
~ the basis Of the great contest OF tariffs
between the leading nations OF the globe.
Each country seeks TO maintain a nonopoly
OF supplying the needs of its own inhab-
ftants. and at the same time. force an
entrance into other countries for the sale
OF its surplus products.
II il were true. however. that an adverse
balance OF trade was disastrous 10 a coun-
try. Great Britain would be to-day n baak-
rupted country, for I'm the past twenty years
there has not been single year I'm which
she has not Imported more merchandise

excess or imports over exports for the
entire twenty years aggregate the enormous

The Financier says:
The most notable feature of the official
statement of the New York associated
banks last week was the large liquidation.
indeed the greatest for the year, in loans,
which, together with the loss of cash,
caused such a reduction in the general de-
posts, and consequently in the reserve re-
quirements to bring about small in
crease in the surplus reserve.
The loans decreased So 1900. probably
the result of the cancellation of loans Of
government deposits and also the repay
ment of some of the recent syndicate Dor
rowings. The holdings of public funds were
reduced considerably during the week, max
ing the reduction in the fortnight $29, $500 600.
This, IL may be noted, Is somewhat In eX-
treasury funds, which were accumulated in
the special repositories preparatory TO the
Panama payment, the excess representing
Surrenders under the second call of the
treasury for public deposits.
The cash holdings OF the banks decreased
S7.0S3, 800 net, rejecting the total of the av-
erage amount of gold withdrawn for export
to Europe during the bank week.
The average gain resulting from the pay
ment Friday of the 100000 treasury
warrant to the financial agents of the Re-
it counting for only about one-half million.
and had little influence, except that 1t
caused the cash item to be made upon ris-
ing averages.
General deposits decreased $40 49, 600
which amount is $411. 100 less than the sum
of the decrease in loans and of the net loss
of cash; therefore, the statement showed a
good balance. The required reserve of q
per cent. of general deposits decreased
s., 262 800, deducting from which the net loss
of cash left 81, 025 as the increase in sur
plus reserve to s13,002,275.
Computed upon the basis of deposits, less
those of S26. S4l All of public funds, the sur
plus Is s19. IA. 625. The daily average of bank
cleerings during the week was 500, Zoo
or 100000 greater than In the previous
week. The clearings on Saturday. reflect
ing Fridays business, were s191. 269, 1O9 oil
below the weekly average.
The indications seem to point to the
speedy ending of gold exports on Panama
account, IL being estimated that about
$780, 900 0O0 of this money has now been trans
ferred. The reduction in the rates of ex
change will prevent the profitable export o.
the metal for other purposes, and therefore
the drain of gold from the banks for ship
ment to Europe. which has been continu
Gus during the last seven weeks, will prob
ably cease In the current week.

BANK STATEMENT SHOWS
IMPROVED CONDITIONS
Item, Which Is Principal Improve
ment-The Figures.

NEW YORK. May 21.-The bank state
ment to-day was much more favorable
than had been expected and was generally
received favorably in Wall street. The
stock market showed more strength to-day
and part of this can be traced to better
feeling resulting from the favorable condi-
tions shown by the banks.
This is the first time in many weeks that
the loan item has not expanded and the
decrease is enormous-nearly s22, 500. 900.
Following is the statement in detail:
