CONGRESS AND
THE PRESIDENT.

In discussing the bill to pay the
expenses of the President and his
friends while travelling, Senator Bailey
said he had heard that there had beeli
an increase of 500, 900 in expenses
during the incumbency of the present
President 81 don't know how that
may be-" he said, "aad all that
have to say is that if it is true he has
cost more and is worth less than any
President we have ever had Sena-
tor Tilfman thought it was intended
that the President should use the ap-
pr priat!on in travelling for campaign
purposes-in going from one place to
another "to help out lame ducks who
want to get back to the Senate or to
the House. Senator McCumber,
republican, found in the provision a
tendency toward European systems,
permitting retinue. He said we
might well look forward to the time
when there would be chamberlains,
keepers of this thing and that. He
also objected to the provision on con-
stitutional grounds, claiming that the
proposed appropriation comes within
the inhibition against emoluments and
increase in salary, and supported this
point by saying that "to save is to
gain, and that gain is an emolument.
The appropriation would save money
to the President aud would thus prove
an cmolument. Senator McLaurin
objected to taxing the people to make

TRUST BUST
ING PASTIME.

All that has so far been done
against trust plundering is merely
scratching the surface. Not trust
has been forced to reduce its enormous
profits and indeed the cost of living
has greatly increased since the so-call-
ed trust busting began. Does not
this show that the Republican politi-
clans, although making faces at the
trusts in public, are secretly allowing
them to continue their predatory war
fare on the people? If the Republi-
can party really wished to prevent
the trusts selling their products cheap
er abroad than here, the leaders in
Congress would have allowed some
sort of tariff revision bill to pass. But
all the bills for that purpose have
been voted down in committee by a
party vote, even the bill to reduce
the tariff to 100 per cent. on those ar
ticles that are taxed over that enorm-
Gus percentage. The fact is the trust
busting campaign, is intended to just
scare the trusts and combines enough
so they will "come down with the
dust" The campaign fund in that
way is replenished and the corpora
tions and the Republican leaders are
combined for new lease of life.
That pleasant pastime is rather ex-
pensive for the people for all they
buy has advanced on an average AZ
per cent. since the present tariff law
was enacted.

a class distinction-that man in a
high position is better than man in
a low position. 1t is impossible, he
said, to tell where such class move
ment would end. The man next in
line would want the same allow
ance, and so on down until eventually
the workingman would bear all this
accumulated burden
The bill had passed the House of
Representatives by a strict party vote,
the day before. 1t is distinctly Re.
publican measure and is in keeping
with the theories of that party. 1t is
an attempt to plunder the treasury by
an unconstitutional law; to create
class distinctions and privileges; to
enable the President to exert an un-
due influence over the press by invit-
ing his press agents to travel with him
at public expense; and to enable him
also to go into doubtful States and
work for party candidates at public
expense.

THE BIG
FISH ESCAPE.

A dispatch from Kansas City an
nounces that four big packing COM
panies, one railroad company and two
individuals have been found guilty of
rebating and duly punished.
Swift and Co., $15, 900; Cudahy
Packing Company, s15, 1000, Armour
Packing Company, $15, 900; Nelson,
Morris d Co., $4,000; Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy Railway, $15, :
600. The maximum fine possible
was $4,000.
George L. Thomas, of New York,
was fined $4,000 and sentenced to
four months in the penitentiary.
l.. b. Taggart, of New York, was
fined 81, 600 and sentenced to three
months in the penitentiary.
The corporations, that is, the men
who compose the corporations, were
just as guilty as the little fellows who
went to the penitentiary. They are
criminals of the very worst stamp,
and yet, under the law made by a
Republican Congress, they keep out
of jail and run political parties as us
ual. Judges and iuries may do their
duty faithfully, but Republican poll
ticlans in Congress make it impossible
to Jail the big criminals

AND now they say that King
Haakon is as democratic as Teddy.
No doubt of it. He was made king
by people who preferred royalty on
dress parade to democracy in power.
A king who is a democrat is as great
a hypocrite as a democrat who king
must be.

Now Congress has appropriated
s25, 900 year to pay the travelling
expenses of the President and his
friends, there can be no reason why
most of the invitations inviting him
to speak on politics and other subjects
should be declined, at least when Con-
gress is not in session.
