ir
That State Journal Interview with Walttr
Thomas Mills-
ANSWEE8 THAT DID HOT BUIT Ir.
Yet the Most Interesting and Enlighten
ing Matter Mills' Opinion of Herron.
Six Questions Considered.
Oat of the Journal's Waste Basket
When Walter Thomas Mill was here
three weeks ago the State Journal im-
proved the opportunity to interview
him on several subjects. Seven queB'
Hons were submitted to the eminent
platform orator and social reformer
and he answered them, but after ob
taining the opinion of the distinguished
gentleman the Journal could not bring
Itself to publish, the principal part of
the interview. The Journal published
his answer to their question as to what
he thought of the prohibition move
ment and suppressed what be had to
say In response to their six other ques
tions. Below we give the suppressed
portion of the Interview:
. "What is jour opinion of the public
control system of dealing with toe
. liquor business?"
''It bus always been the purpose of
the prohibition movement that liquors
sold fur legitimate purposes saouia 01
furnUhed by the state and without
profit. The state agent is not a new
idea, it is as old as the prohibition
movement. The only new idea about
It is that the state agent may not only
sell for medicinal and mechanical pur
poses, as is done under prohibition, but
also lor oeverage purposes, were wis
done by a state agent direct and abso
lutely without profit it would seem to
me that it would seriously cripple the
saioon, and while very objectionable in
some particulars, would nevertheless
be a great advance on the license
system. But the South Carolina law
provides for profits and retains the
curse of a public revenue from a public
wrong.
"What is the prospect of union be
t ween the Prohibitionists and Popu
lists?"
"1 think the prospect is good. The
Prohibitionists cannot destroy the sa
loon without doing it in spite of tin
corporations, almost every one of which
is largely controlled by stockholders
who are Interested in the liquor bust
ness. and where not so interested they
nevertheless corruptly use the liquor
vote to promote their own prosperity
The Populists cannot destroy the cor
porations without threshing this army
of monopolistic Hessians organized in
and controlled by the saloon. It may
as well be understood at once that vic
tory over the corporations must mean
victory over the grogshop vote, and it
may as well also be understood that no
victory over the grogshop vote is pos
sible until the power of the corporations
is also broken, l oeueve this is Decom
1 n All ..una a.
Jformers, and that on some reasonable
basis of union the corporations and the
grogshops will be overtnrown lb the
same political encounter."
"You have been widely advertised as
an opponent of Woman Suffrage. Do
you now hold such views?"
"I have never been An opponent of
Woman Suffrage. 1 have always been,
and am, as good an advocate as I know
bow to be of the aosolute equality of
rights of all human beings, i did for
merly believe that the saloon could be
overthrown best by making that the
single subject of attack, adding only
such other questions as Prohibitionists
could practically unite upon. I did not
think that equai suffrage and a number
of' other important questions oould be
put Into the prohibition movement
without dividing Prohibitionists and
defeating the movement. 1 believe
that the last six years has seen such da
velopments in economic and social dls
nnacilnna And nnnh nnv And ln.nnrtu.nt
Interests ot a nnanclal and social dls
cusslocsand such new aBd important in
terests of a nnanclal and social nature
are being pushed into tb foreground
as will make it impossible for any one
oi a hail dozen great measures to be
pushed to a solution separated from its
allies, and that amoBg these questions
lstha. of the enfranchisement of wo
men
"Have you re id Professor Herron's
oration, and what is your opinion of it?"
"1 have not bad an opportunity to
read tne l ror. ssor's oration, but 1 have
known tne Professor for a number of
years in fact, published In the Sates-
man when I was its editor Ills earliest

A Letter From A. J. Gustln.
Editor Wealth Makbrs:
1 was home for a short visit, to bear
the sunflower eagles ssream in my own
door yard, and had the pleasure of feed'
lng on newspaper food in keeping with
hearts and minds that lore mankind
In your issue July 5th, quoting from
Review of Reviews regarding Senator
Allen, in which he says, '1 am in no
sense a Socialist," and commenting on
him, you say: "He is a leader that
follow, not a leader who leads. But
force of circumstances fast unfolding
will force him forward."
You express a great truth. Our office
holders are not leaders. Nor should
they be, anj more than should the em
ployee lead, and direct his employer
The man who has moral courage to fit
him for leadership In public opinion,
must be too aggressive to admit his
election to office.
Soon as the majority of people who
vote formulate a public policy that can
not be disregarded, then, and not till
then, will circumstances force our ser
vant, the office holder, forward to the
performance of his duty.
The average voter of Nebraska and
Kansas Is a truer type of self govern
ing citizenship than citizens of Eastern
states; and that is why riot and violence
in the East is educatlag those states up
to the Populist truths we learned peace
fully In country school houses at Alliance
meetings, several years ago. The les
sons learned then, and now, are sinking
into our hearts and minds, as convic
tions not to be shaken. We are learn
ing how to train the gatlingguosof the
ballot box, that armory of freedom, the
patent of which is held in heaven, and
the validity of which patent has been
passed upon by the Almighty; in Magna
Charta, at Runnymede, at Independence
Hall In 1776. at Washington in 1862;
and now the time is about ripe for de
cision on an appeal of tbe businessman,
and toiler for commercial freedom.
The laborer must learn he can win at
the ballot and nowhere else.
Hon. W. V. Allen is the first Senator
Nebraska ever had, who dared even
place himself In position at Washington
as a champion for our state. Sneered
at, and despised as we are by th3 inter
est gathering east, it would be foolhardy
for our senator to advance beyond the
settled policy of his employers. Let us
reason together. Soon as a public ser
vant realizes his duty to tLIs employer,
the public, and tries to execute It in
cod fl let with private Interests of special
individuals, then the real leaders among
us mark him for official death.
Our real leaders pelt him with lies
and loathsome expressions, from the
mud batteries of a subsidized and parti
san press, and by tbe slandering tongues
of such able (?) official prostitutes as
control the machinery of our State
Board of Transportation. Then the
craven public, intent oa tbe pulsation
of its cowardice, like sheer, abandons
its manly bellwethers. Is this not true9
Look at our own state in tbe case of
Attorney General Leese, who stood
manfully for tbe people lo 188 against
tbe railroad extortion leaders, when be
bad everything to lose and nothing to
gain If we must have a roan from
Lincoln wby not elect him Governor?
Look ar. Judge Koese, who went down
before tbe same brigade of leading
pirates. Look at that trim publio offi
cial, Judge Maxwll. Our salvation
ha consisted in the fact that our emi
nently respectable public brigands, were
confined top rsonal revenue agalnstour
faithful st-rvaoU, and that they could
not name their owo tools as successors
to lhort nu n.
The voter Is tha tuppoatd leadsr In a
republic, but be has been a fooled leajer.
tils h ad Is In his stomaott, and his coda
of principles, and platform for action
diw nut it i frm breakfast to supper.
Therefor, the voter bring swayed by
faa.ioii rather than by principle, tbe
real ladr amorg us, have ba aMo

state over two thousand miles from
market, when new appliances, if used
for public good rather than for corpor
ate benefit, would place us at the mark
et'sdoor. Our real leaders are bankers,
aided by the private money loaners and
pawn brokers among us. Their able
aiders and abettors in cultivating public
crime and misery are the railroad man
agers, headed by such debauched brains
as are held by the Hon. John M. Thur
ston. The bartender's idea ot labor
and gain justify to his warped mind, the
act of catering to the debased appetite
of the phblio for drink. The trained
lawyer dressed in the white apron of re-
spectablllty.bleesed with a bright mind
endowed with power of speech, and the
cunning sophistry of extracting honey
from memory of decayed party prlncl
pies, sees nothing wrong in drafting
instruments of moral publio crime,
tbe command of his masters Watch
tne evolutions or the two old parties as
they begin to play horse about silver,
In the west where money Is borrowed
they will both formulate platform
planks calling for honest (?) intrinsic
money, and silver on a parity with gold
In the east the same parties will call
for honest (?) money, and they will
specify that gold is that article of hon
esty. Mcsber is a Nebraska example
of gold honesty, and the ten dollar
tbief is an example of sliver honesty
When we learn that honest money to
the money loaner, being intrinsic that
he may draw interest upon It at expense
of our laber, Is dishonest to us, and
of
all mankind who produce by labor,
then will we learn to respect values
made by toil, as above those made by
financial legislation. But we will not
discuss money now. Let us look at la
bor combining to fight for rights usurp
ed by combined capital. How quickly
the capitalist calls upon Cleveland for
national power to fight combining labor.
When labor combines it becomes anar
cby to the capitalist, and be like
drunken wretch with wheels in his
head, clings to the national lamp-posts,
and bawls for federal police-cabs to take
him home. He is carried to bed and
cracked ice of fixed interest income and
cooling drinks fed him; while the labor
er with drunken wheels of combination
in his head, Is filled with cold lead, and
cooled with mother earth, while his
children are taken from school to the
factory, and then passed on down to
conditions of pauper Europe.
The laborer is trying to fight the
devil with fire instead of fighting with
the holy water of a civilized ballot.
The fight will break a few eggs for
all of us but it will batch out commer
cial freedom. In electing a prize ox to
the presidency, our nation was vile and
wicked. That pea-headed, bull-necked
tool of the real leaders of our Nation,
that august example of John L. Sulli
van statesmanship, is now using tbe
federal power at tbe back of corporate
kings to officially murder and subdue
people driven desperate by hunger in
land of plenty, driven desperate by the
nihilistic cunning of the Shylock. We
must overthrow those kings at the bal
lot box, and nowhere else, and now is a
good time to begin.
The hope of our State and Nation is
in the reading ef such noble teachings
as your paper gives us and in reading
books like "A Better Financial System,'
by George C. Ward, 'The New Redemp
tion," by Geo. D. Herroa, "Caesar's
Column," by Ignatius Donnelly by
reading, and tustaining with cath our
local county Popuiist papers by think
ing with our beads for others instead of
thinking with our stomachs for self
alone. I am working for a factory lo
cated here at Canton, Ohio, in the old
McKinley district. More than a hun
dred of our men assure me they will
vote for J. S. Coxey for congress. I be
lieve Coxey will be tlected. He is an
able, c insoientious honest man. With
such men in congress we can keep the
corporate nihilists out of labor's grass.
We can retain the reward of our honest
toll, and create a republic la trade to
replace the intrinsic money monarchy
now in force.
The time is coming when publio
thieves will go to tbe pen, Instead of to
Europe for titles The abolition Popu
lists and business Interests will emanci
pate trade that deals In values made by
labor, by putting tbe parls green of
honest flat in legal tender ot exchange,
on the intrinsic money bugs that are
now tapping industrial and business
life. This must be done at the ballot
bos, and In congress.
I notice my name mentioned for state
auditor. Thanking my friend, and
deeply s?Dtb!ol the honor implied, I
beg Ibey wssta no time In talking of ma
for any state office. We have plenty of
good mea t aatart from, and while it Is
unusual for one to deoitaa that which l
not yel offered, la jiutW to my party,
I thus publicly aure Uiom concerned
that I eoulj acoapt no tt office.
