The progress of the political revolution
which has been wagiug in the city of
Philadelphia for the past few weeks over
the gas lease steal, has created intense
interest, not alone in the city and State,
but throughout the entire country.
Mayor Weaver is backed by public
opinion and has won the first skirmish,
as the gang of hooters, after compelling
the City Council to pass the ordinance
giving them long term lease of the gas
plant, has become frightened at the
Mayors stand and the storm of protest
from the people and withdrawn the pro-
posed contract.
The entire press of the city has sup
ported the Mayor and has succeeded in
arousing the people to action as never
before in corrupt, ring ruled Philadel-
phia. While the Organization has been
compelled to surrender Internationally
in this latest and boldest political move
for wholesale steal, it is by no means
down and out, but in all probability plot
ting TO accomplish by stealth that which
its very insolence and high handedness
has done the most to defeat.

Statistics show that the municipaliza-
ton of public utilities in Hull, England,
has resulted in profit to the city treasury.
The object is not SO much to make profit
for the city out of these utilities-the
street car lines, the gas and electric
plants-as to furnish the public with the
best service at the lowest possible price.
Notwithstanding the charges for these
public services are extremely low in that
city, they have been conducted with
profit. A ride on the street cars in any
direction to the end of the line costs only
two cents; gas is sold at 4S cents per
thousand feet, and electricity at nine
cents per unit.

The long expected naval battle between
the fleets of Admirals Rojestvensky and
Toga was fought on Saturday and Sun
day in the Korean strait and resulted in
an overwhelming Russian defeat. The
result of the fight would seem to make
further naval and military operations
easy for Japan, and it is now only ques-
ton of Russia accepting the inevitable
and asking for peace terms, as the Great
Bear has been put to flight in every one
of his clashes with the little Jap.
Russia's whole policy in dealing with
Japan has been one of overbeariug inso-
lence, and the Gar and his advisers are
now to taste the bitterness of being dictat-
ed to by foe looked upon at the begin
ming of hostilities as not worthy of their
steel.
The world at large has little sympathy
with any nation that compels its subjects
to'grovel in the very dirt before a ruler
whose edicts are enforced solely by the
mailed band ofthe military. Such ruler:
and such governments have no place in
this age of progress and enlightened civ
ilization and their obsoleteness was nevei
better shown than by the contrast which
this war has served to present. The one
nation being the exempli6catiou apt

with it advancement along all lines, a!

The Utah Land Steals.

There have been some of the biggest
land steals, from the standpoint of dollars
and cents, in the eastern part of Utah,
that have ever taken place in the United
States. 1t is charged that the opening of
the Uintah reservation will simply be a
farce; that great and favored few, work.
ing with and for combines and through
the connivance and instruction of United
States Senators and federal officials of
prominence, including past administra-
tons, have gobbled everything in sight.
The opening of the reservation de-
velops scandal of enormous magnitude
which will necessarily involve numerous
government officials. The facts being
made public at present chiefly concern
the vast gilsonite and ellaterite veins
located there. This tract, upon which
these valuable mineral deposits are locat-
ed, is now controlled by a Chicago syn
dictate, which secured its supremacy
through the land Office authorities,
whereby lease was obtained from the
Indians and later confirmed by the de-
partment. Being in actual possession,
the company is in position to fortify
itself against encroachments of settlers by
being first to purchase.
Every one of the deposits belongs to
the United States governme emit, and form
part of the territory that is to be opened
to sale to bona6de settlers, but the settlers
will have no opportunity to avail them
selves of the privilege ostensibly offered,
because the land grabbers have been there
for ten or fifteen years. The means
whereby this land was obtained will form
tie subject of an investigation which is
likely to place several government ofic-
ials on the anxious bench, including a
number of senators and congressman.
The investigation once stated will reveal
how other syndicates possessed them
selves of thousands of acres of oil and coal
lands in the west, which have been stolen
from the public domain.

A Token of Appreciation.
MY DEAR JOURNAL

MY DEAR JOURNAL
I was certainly pleased to look upon
the light of your countenance once more,
in my coy little home on the hill. For
weary months, indeed, have wondered
at your wanderings, and had we'll nigh
concluded that you had given me the
cold shoulder. Imagine then, my very
agreeable surprise at the meeting and
the greeting between US. as in the days
gone by. These little courtesies and
polite attentions are very refreshing and
enjoyable to men of all ages, and might
add, of all conditions, but especially are
they relished by men on the shady side
of life. Nor do l wish to be understood
as saying or intimating even, that my life
is shaded or that live in the shadows.

little seedy and rusty, but life itself, like
its Divine Author, is immortal, eternal.

The magazines are doing great work
of education in exposing the unholy
methods of the trust pirates and frenzied
fnanciers, says an exchange. The
thoughtful reading people are becoming
familiar with these questions which are
pressingl for solution, and when the
proper time comes will register their tell
ing condemnation at the ballot box or
elsewhere. The fate of this nation is in
the keeping of the middle classes in their
quiet, peaceful and thoughtful homes
where the magazines are read and where
a wholesome and formidable public
opinion is being formed, which some day
will visit its wrath upon those who con.
spire against'the common welfare.

The Referendum.

The people should not be made to
await the pleasure of the Legislature or
of Congress. They should not be kept in
ignorance of what the law is until legisla-
tive acts become known through the
newspapers. They should have in every
case the right to initiate those laws which
they want, and to veto, through the Ref
erendum, any law which they do not
like. With such a law in existence they
would not be compelled to wait till
the expiration of the term of any Of
6cer who betrayed his trust, to secure
his recall.

appears an editorial entitled, Has

lows:
AS will be seen by an item published
elsewhere, as wholesale and jobbng
center Hastings is forging ahead at
substantial and promising rate. In
all, Hastings has nine wholesale and
manufacturing enterprises and, with
hardly an exception, they are of cred
liable standing in the trade and finan-
cial world For instance, the three
wholesale grocery houses are rated as
the largest and most completely
stocked houses of their character, bar
ring the large Lincoln and Omaha
houses, in the state. These houses
are now doing a rapidly expanding
business in supplying the retail trade
in central and western Nebraska. This
city can also boast of the largest
wholesale harness and saddlery in the
state, employing more skilled work
men than any other similar house in
Nebraska. There are three cigar fac
tories, one of which employs more than

output ranks far in the lead of any
similar factory in Nebraska, even Oma-
ha and Lincoln having none to COM
pare with it. And so we could COM
ment further and make this article
more extended but space will not per-
nit. The one important fact we wish
to bring out is that Hastings wholesale
houses, four mammoth brick manufac-
turing plants Ga total annual output of
about 20,000,000 brick) two commission
houses, etc, do $2,00O,O00 worth of
business a year. 1t can readily be
seen of what great financial and COM
mercial value these growing and trade
getting enterprises are to the city's
future. Mark the prediction: The
time is coming (and the time is not
far distant, either) when Hastings will
have become such thriving trade and

and envy of it's nearest largest rival.
