What Manner of Man is Our
President
(No. ~


that Of the average aristocrat In a class
taught by Alexander Hamilton, our Presi-
dent would have stood high. He doesn't be-
leve the people capable of self government:
he doesn't believe that they can be trusted
to deal wisely with public affairs; he doesn't
believe they should be allowed to know the
truth concerning legislation and govern
mental policies
For example:
Doesn't he know that the country 7aoao sees
that he did his level best to deliver Alaska
to the Guggenheim- Morgan syndicate?
Doesn't he know that his ardent advocacy
of the Aldrch Central Bank scheme deceives
nobody?
Doesn't he realize that all of us understand
that Morgan dictated the appointment Of
John Hays Hammond, to attend the corona
ton of George Guelph?
He rushes hither and thither, making
speeches, shaking hands, smiling and bowling
In the apparent belief that we have forgotten
what speeches he made, last year; what legis-
lation he praised last year; what appoint
ments he made last year; what men he antag-
onlzed last year; and what men he coddled,
last year.
He has discovered that Aldrch was not the
friend of the people, so far as the tariff was
concerned. On that subject, Mr. Taft was
fiat and go LAST but he finally admitted that
his admirable Aldrich had fashioned tariff
Which increased the cost of living-therefore
not the best tariff this country ever had
But, although he has tardily recognized the
fact that Aldrich was a Bad Man, in tariff
making, the President sticks to it that AID
rich IS a Good Man, on the money question.
In making tariff walls, it is now univer-
sally known that Aldrich aimed to shut out
competition with such allies and partners and
nIot1 no Poo1~o I'll
genhems, Havemeyers, Weyerhausers, Dukes.
ETC.
But IN creating gigantic Central Bank,
which will control the volume of currency
and monetize the assets of the Wall Street
Kings, Aldrich has not had in view the
worldwide greed of the Morgan syndicate;
he has been solely concerned for the true
and patriotic welfare of the Common Man.
So argues our President-sm smiling benignly,
parentally, confidently, Turveydropishly.
And to make his performance the more
incredibly lmpudent, he does this at time
when his John Hays Hammond is on dis
gushing exhibition in London; when our
army yet lines the Mexican frontier at Nor
gan's instance; when the Infamous Honduran
loan proposition is about to come up in Con-
gress; when China has reluctantly submitted
to our State Departments demand that the
Celestial Empire become a client of Moroans
banking house; and when the whole country
is marvellne how much longer the Presi-
dents brOther-o0h0 spent q million dollars

the attorney of the criminal Sugar Trust.
If the immunity from punishment, which
the Sugar Trust thieves have hitherto en-
joyed, continues to scandalize the country:
if their grab of the Friarlands in the Philip
pines holds good, in spite of law and popular
clamor; and if the oily knave, Wickersham,

THE RSONIAN


while the almost countless millions of the
Rocl<efellers, the Carnegies and the Morgans
pay no federal tax whatever IS crime AGAINST
justice and humanity.
If [ could [ would put the necessaries of
life on the untaXed list, maintain duties on
luxuries only and then take the balance which
the government needs from the net income of
the rich
We will never have an economical govern
ment SO long as the untaxed rich have the
spending of the taxes paid by the poor.
FOURTH would favor the physical vaIua-
ton of railroads and other public service cor
porations Let them have reasonable profits
on actual Values not upon the Incorporated
power and opportunity to rob-
Fifth-The lawbreaking officers of corpora
tons should be treated like other lawbraak-
ers Educated and we'll paid officials who can
not obey the law of the land are the most dam
gerous criminals we have, and they should be
so treated. The imposition of fines on the
corporations themselves is a double punish
ment inflicted upon the innocent public.
SIXTH heartily favor the parcels post, the
postal telegraph, the postal telephone, the pos
tai savings bank. If we had a single senator
who would devote himself resoluteIv to these
practical measures which Europe enjoys we,
too, could enjoy them.
SEVENTH would work for the passage of
a declaratory resolution that the fifteenth
amendment to the federal constitution was
never legally proposed by congress nor rati-
fed by the States. This would clear the way
for restricting the franchise to qualified white
men,
Eighth-The direct election of senators bv
the people [ would favor but not with the
proviso so that federal government be given
control of the elections. That change would
revolutonlze the government and reduce SOW
ereign states to dependent provinces.
Ninth-While [ favor the principle of mi
tlatlve, referendum and recall [ would OPP
pose any practical application of it nationally
that would deprive each state of its equality
with every other state, and it's sovereign power
to regulate its own domestic affairs.
Ienth-l would work zealously to have the
cotton tax refunded to those who paid it or
to their legal representatives; in default Of
these, l would favor its return to the old SOL
ders
Eleventh. would enCeavor to have the
Dick military bill repealed, thus restoring to
the state, the control of the militia. The new
law, which empowers the president to send
northern militia to invade southern states,
southern troops to invade northern states and
negro troops to attack white men, is pro-
foundly dangerous. 1t was sneaked through
congress by concentrationists, who have gone
crazy on mllltarlsm, and the country at-large
has never realized what tremendous change
1T makes in our system. 1t went into opera
ton with the beginning of this year, and even
now the president, without consulting the
governor could order the Georgia militia into
Pennsylvania or Illinois. Of course, [ mean

and men, and at the annual encampment last

Fort Collins.-The campaign at the
Great Western sugar factory at Fort
Collins is expected to be called be-
tween December 10th and 18th.
The first payment OF 100000 made
10 beet growers in this section was
on October 18th and was compara-
lively small. 1t included only ship
ments which had been received during
the month of September.
On November 18th another payment
was made OF approximately $4,000.
This represents one part Of the busi.
ness being transacted in this section
of northern Colorado. The beets are
now out OF ground, with the exception
Of few carloads.
The next and final payment will be
made on December 18th. This will
probably bring the total up to the
sum of $475,0Oo.
The sugar content of this year has
been larger than for the last three
years. owing to the condition OF the
soil and climate.

took the first and second prizes at the
