Coming Export Of Gold

1t appears to The Independent that
there will be no way of avoiding large
export of gold during the next six
months. 1t is we'll known that we ship
out of this country about S5O0,0o0,o00 a
year more wealth than is brought back.
That is what republican statesmen cal
"a favorable balance of trade" That s
the interest on foreign investments
made in this country, in railroad stocks
end bonds, alien ownership of land, TIE
money we send over to Europe to sup
port dukes and lords who have married
American heiresses and other things of
that sort. That has largely been paid
by the export of the products of the
farms. 1t is now stated that these ex-
ports will be at least $115,000,000 less
this year than last A very large part
Of those European claims will have to
be settled in gold There seems to be
no other way The exports of manu-
featured goods has not increased. When
lit comes to shipping $100,000,OO0 of
gold out of this country there will ae
serious trouble. Look out for it. Get
out of debt. lowe no man anything. F"
That is the safe way. Already over
$40, 100000 of gold has been sent across

The Railroad Power
the ocean.

The republican senators are talking
about the dangerous encroachment of
the federal government but have
nothing to say about the encroachl
ments of the railroad power that has
put them in the United States senate
The question is whether this country
shall be ruled by men elected by the
people or by men sent to congress by
the railroads. and whether a commits
sion, that will in the end be appointed
by the railroads, shall have the control
OF taxing power twice as great as
that OF the United States, or whether
the people shall have something -
say about it at the polls. The power
OF the railroads we have seen in manip-
ulated earnings for stock speculation.
arbitrary rates, determinations in ia
vor of favored shippers, outrageous
terminal charges, private car stealing,
icing charges, refusal to furnish cars
and many other ways. They have done
all that after having watered the orr.
ginal stock from 100 to 300 per cent
Now it is proposed as remedy to put
all this power into the hands of few
men! After that the roads will have
a more glorious time than ever.

Oyerlordship

The most unAmerican thing in the
presidential message was the assump-
ton of an "overIordship" over all the
nations on this continent. The full
statement of that "overlordship' was
as follows:
II nation shows that it knows hoy
to act with reasonable efficiency and
decency in social and political mat
tiers, If it keeps order and pays its OBJ
legations, it need fear no interference
from us. Chronic wrong-doing, or an
impotence which results in general
loosening of the ties of civilized So
ciety may in America as elsewhere Ill
tf.lately require Intervention by some
civilized nation. and in the western
hemisphere the adherence of the Unit
ell States to the Monroe doctrine may
force the United States. however re-
luctantly, in fragrant cases of such
wrong-doing or impotence, to the exer-
else of an international police power
No such claim as that was ever made
by a ruler before. What nation ever
assumed 1.-The exercise of an interna-
tional police power?" That statement
ii not repudiated may cost this nation
a great deal. If we have right Of
police power" in the South American
republics, European nations will one
day be holding us responsible for their
misdeeds.

tney treat OF those dry Things tEGt are
found in the college textbooks on ge-
ology and anthropology, it is written in
a style so fascinating that the ten-year
old school girl will read it with de-
light. Mr. Sheldon is populist tried
and true. At one time ne edited pop
ulist paper in this state and at another
time served the party in the legislature.
This semi-centennial history is pub
lished in that year of Nebraska's Or
ganization as separate political iden-
tity as part of this great country,
but it begins back some millions of
years ago, and the books from whia1
the facts are gathered are found III
the limestone rocks, the coal seams,
the marine shells, the bones of maste-
dons, the boulders Of the ice age, tie
flint instruments of prehistoric peo-
pie and their pottery, which is scat
tered all over the state.
The history since white men came is
equally interesting and bears the stamp
of long ands patient study and inyessi-
cation. MANY are now living in the
state who have been here since its Or
ganization as a territory end will bear
testimony to the genera, accuracy Of
the work. Never in the world before
has there such an empire been created
in fifty years. Whether we view its
production of wealth, it's vast systems
Of transportation. It's colleges and its
universities, its increase in population
it's churches or it's common schools, we
are all alike amazed. In recording all
this advancement in wealth and pow
er, on every page there is evidence &C
a desire to get the exact facts, and
that makes one little slip somewhat
noticeable. In giving an account of the
celebrated Standing Bear case, which
is part, not only of the history of Ne
braska, but of the nation, the names
of the lawyers who argued the case be-
fore Judge Dundy are mentioned, but
