Old AGE PENSIONS.

n uTs legislative program of the Liberal min
u istrv in England includes contemplated
acts that illustrate the drift OF what its oppon-
ents are pleased to term paternalism. The tact
that paternalism is thought OF in England when
has long been considered the home of individual
ism. and presumably proof against so-called So
ciaistic schemes, shows a remarkable change IN
English public sentiment in dealing with the So
cial problem.
One measure proposed in the House Of Com
mons provides for the shortening of the work
dav of coal miners, and it meets with objection
because it would result in an increase in the price
of coal The same objection has been urged
against all attempts to cut down the working day.
When the workers toied ten or even twelve
hours in the factories of the old countries, and
when the movement was inaugurated for a short
cning of the working day the same argument was
raised.
Followed to its logical conclusion, there could
be no improvement in the condition of the work
ing classes. They would be doomed 10 a life of
ceaseless grind and toll from the cradle to the
grave If any class of men in England or in this
country should have their toll essened, should be
given longer time in Gods bright sunshine il is
the coal min IS. Another measure proposed is
the old age .ension bill, and should this be en-
acted it would go a step further than the German
old age pension bill. The German law provides
that working men, to be entitled to old age PEN
sons, shall have contributed to the fund for a
tam period OF years IL IS government insurance.
The British bill which, it is understood the
Liberals will attempt to force through Parlia-
ment, provides that every person in the kingdom
who shall have reached certain age. and o5
will probably be the figure, will draw a small sum
from the government
Where the money to pay these pensions will
come from is. of course, asked, and the answer is
that some of it will be derived from the income
tax.
These two bills under consideration in England
have begun to attract attention in America, and
one OF the New York organs of the financial oil
garchy plays dolefu tune about such legislation
declaring that should the bills become laws in
England it will be a short time only before =
similar agitation will be started in America
It is hardly probable that similar measures will
be taken up in America as yet but there is every
reason why they should be considered in England
England gained its wealth and manufacturing SUI
preInacy through exploitation of the masses. And
along with the great wealth at one pole followed
misery and poverty at the other pole The move.
ment symbolized in these two bills is simply one
to exalt the rights Of persons-the man-as well
as the rights OF things-property,

or to waste their energies in trying to get
votes. We have reserved our funds and
forces to fight this measure in the higher
courts, as we believe the clause pertaining
to the sale of alcoholic bitters or COM
pounds containing more than per cent.
Of alcohol is unconstitutional and viii
materially interfere with the legitimate
practice Of the druggists and physicians
Of this county. They win be unable to full
III their. conscientious duty either in pre-
scribing for patients or filling the pre-
scripuons, without violating the law under
this act. With the exception of a very few
liquids. we believe all Of the fluids carried
by the physicians or used by the drug
eists contain more than per cent. Of
alcohol. This is why we appear not to
have made any fight. but we will show
them our hand later"

he stated that he was still strong adj

The Introduction of Mr. Taft was
as follows:
In the fortunes of war. we ac-
quired alien and subject races. Our
government assumed to lead them to
the lofty eminence of American civ
ilization. For the accomplishment
of this purpose the president sent to
the Philippines a typical citizen and
eminent counsellor, and a man with
the courage of his convictions. He
accomplished the high purpose of his
mission, winning both the confidence
OF his countrymen and the love and
gratitude of a nation to be. Success
and honor have crowned his every eff
fort in an active life as citizen. jur-
list, peacemaker and cabinet officer.

putes of the campaign in this inspir-
ing hospitality. And | reciprocate
in every way and to the full the
courteous words of respect and good
Will. With him I have recently been
subjected to a considerable strain.
But the experiences of today have
been almost more than | could bear
One non-partisan speech is a good
deal of Burden (Mr. Bryan led in
the merriment), when you are in
other kind of practice. And you have
to make three inside of nine hours I
submit to my distinguished fellow
guest and opponent is cruelty to any

THE DAY IN THE
DISTRICT COURT

DISTRICT Court -oga, .wrsiARe
District court opened at 9 O'Clock
this morning.
number of motions were argued
and orders made during the first hall
hour.
At $3.50 am. the jury reported for
duty, and the prosecution announced
that it would take up the case OF
Reed, King and Evers. the three
negroes charged with making dead
ly assault on Osborn and Scott, the
two railroad men, in a difficulty at
and near the Pacific saloon.
The prosecution had decided to en-
Ter into the trial, although three i'm
portant witnesses were missing. 1t
was believed that the evidence OF
Scott, one of the men shot in the
melee, would be sufficient to convict
the negroes. Osborn, the other rail
road man who was injured, is in Cal
ifornia.
The defense was ready for trial.
Attorney Rhone is defending the
three men.
A Jury was chosen in a very short
time and the taking of evidence was
under way by 10 o'clock. after short
statements had been made by the at
torneys.
The circumstances surrounding
the case are pretty ramiiiar to Sen
tinel readers.
The trial of the three negroes will
occupy the greater part of the day.
Tomorrow morning Newton Smith
of DeBeque, charged with outraging
little child. will be arraigned for
trial.
Two Defendants Dismissed.
Soon after the trial of the three
paoroaS was oppned II was seen that
there was not sufficient evidence to
convict King and Reed and these two
defendants were dismissed from Gus
tody; but, as Ollie Evers is supposed
to be the man who fired the shots
that injured Scott, he was held and
the trial proceeded.
The evidence in the case was all in
by 3 pm. and the instructions to the
jury prepared. The arguments are
being made as The Sentinel goes to
