He neked tbat the few Chinese wbo were aboard tbe ships and who enlisted, knowing tbat there would be a fight, be allowed to come Into the United States an a reward for tbe faith ful performpnee of duty on tbe occasion of tbe battle of Manila bay. Tbe request waa refused.' Plutocratic political management now consist in tbe application of tbe prlucl pie, "divide and conquer." Ho the lead ers busy themselves In tbe organisation of new parties under all sorts of names. Tbey are all well sati-flod tbat if all those who are opposed to tbe money power, McKlnley and Hannaism, should get together and vote one ticket there would be no bope to them. Captain Asbby in bis very readable article claims be bas discovered the law that the Independent asked tb social 1st to draft Tbat law was enunciated nearly 2,000 years ago, but tbe trouble about it is its enforcement. For a long time men were somewhat beld in check by a threatened future abo le In a lake of fire and brimstone, but of late years that does not seem to have any effect upoatbeui. Tbs city of Olaegow, Scotland, cleaned out a large part of the dirtiest portion of tbat city and erected municipal dwell ings where 7000 of tbe poor are com fortably boused, at very moderate rents. In this country, controlled by Mark llannaand the trusts, the tumble-down rookerx that the poor are forced to in babltpay bigger rents than the most palaclal maneions la proportion to their cost, Baoinel Hampers. president of tbe Fed oration of Labor, points out bow the Inbor nutans can stop the train fur standing arm and the want ud by the manufacture of war material Haaaje that there ie a movement oa tout ft a uttiua ol the oraaaU-4 UUir of all eouatrt, whteh wbin prlrctd, will b more factual than all the fiara and e iHllio that vr iUtd l.abot aaloaWt will rlnH to work o war materia).

BKTTEHCO BLOW. Some of these democratic papers tbat bave become so sanctified and boly that an ordinary pop ia ft criminal in their eyes bad better go slow, fcveryoneoi them that has been in tbe dirty business of Impugning the motives of tbe old goard of fighters In tbe reform pi, were gold bugs juntas long as tbey dared to be, In this state. When' tbe populists were standing by Bryan, these fellows were beating blm tn tneir conven tlono and standing by Morton 4 Co, Tbe nastiest fling tbat any of tbem bavo made was In the riatemouth Journal. Itsays: . "Any democratic or populist paper that attempts to uphold or shield tor mill Id tbe hone or expectation ofsecur Ingafew Insurance notices from tbe auditor's offloo shows itself to beun worthy of confidence or support." Those ei-gold bugs who so recently bave become sanctified In spot, cannot conceiro that an editor can take a po sition and defond It simply becaune bo thinks H right but must always be moved by tbe bope of boodle, They bavo so long been accustomed them selves, to run a paper in that way that they never imagine that it is possible to run one In any other way. The Insinu ations as far as the Independent Is con corned is without the slightest founda tion in fact. It is publiNhsd right bere by the side of tbe capitol building, yet all the patronage that It has re ceived from tbe whole state bouse outfit during tbe year ending with our last issue, March 2.1, Insurance notices, letter head and everything, amounts to tbe magnificent svm of 81 75 and much of the work has bven at so low a price tbat there bas not been a cunt of profit In it. Instead of subsidising tbe populist papers, It seems to be the policy of the state bouse officials to give tbe work to ob bouNOs or to democratic papers, and when that is not done, to beat down In price to tbo Inst cent or until tbey are told tbat tbo work is not wanted at such prices. As far as the Independent Is concerned, tbe position It has taken in regard to recent events, was token because it was believed to be right. It is altogether more probable tbat its editor had a better knowledge of tbo facts, be being right on the ground and familiar with every office at the state bonse, than any democratic editor publishing a paper In a country town miles away. If these wholly sanctified democratic saints bad wanted to keep up a parity in their salntliness, they would, when tbe supreme couit Investigation was ordered and before tbe evidence was sub mitted, have demanded tbat every one of tbem resign. But not one of tbem did It. LIES TO BB KICKED, Tbo man of small means Is getting set down on pretty bard by all tbe fellows wbo ran McKluley't campaign. They got bis fool vote and now they think that be Is such a fool tbat ho will vote for them anyhow. There is good ground for such a conclusion for if a man was such an idiot as to vote the republican ticket tbe last time, It Is safe to say tbat he don't know enough to know when be is skinned. The Chicago bankers have refused to accept the accounts of men wbo bavo less than $300 to deposit II the poor man is afraid of burglars and insists upon it, tbe banker will take bis money and charge tbe wage worker a dollar a month for keeping it for him. Meantime tbe bankers are all dead against postal savings banks. So many men showed themselves to be idiots by voting with the Mark Hanna machine tbat the bankers Imngiuo tbat there will bo no kick from tbem, because they don't know enough to kick. Tbe bank ers are about right. The mora these un organised wage workers an kicked tbe better they (Ktutn to like it. They will Join with the railroad maguate or man ntacturer any time to help down or ganised labor. They will always vota to make serfs of themxelvea.

"There was a time when patriotism meant war a man fighting for his country. Now pa triotism means peace a man is pa triotic wbo works for peace. Tbe enemy of bis country is the man wbo urges it to go to war, for the things that were only obtainable formerly by war, can now be better obtained by peaceful means." The Independent will be glad to print a refutation of that statement if It is poHMlble to refute it. Wbo will be the first to try it? HORN PLVTOCHAT8. Plutocracy is born In some and they seem to be unable to get rid of it. These men go about tbe street with mean ness hanging all over tbem in chunks as big as cabbage beads and don't dream that any one knows It. One of tbem tbe other day was denouncing wage work ers as a sort of beasts without any bu man instinct about tbem. He sold: "Look at my bands. The moment the bell tap every one of them will drop their tools. If a man bus bis band raised he will not strike tbe blow on tbe iron for fear that be will work a second overtime." He was asked if it was true tbat none of his workmen ever worked over time and be at last, after much pressing, said tbat in a few Instances tbey had, to fin ish a job they had in hand. Then he was asked if In all the years that be bad been In business bo bad ever paid a work man one cent extra for tbe time after the bell rang and be was forced to an swer that be bad not. Then be was plainly informed tbat be, and not the workmen, was the beast, according to bis own testimony. The truth was that the workmen bad probably given bim many dollars worth of labor every year without any return whatever except that be was denouncing them as "beasto." OIIOANIZKDLAHOB. Very often the populists do an Injus tice to labor organizations in tbe man ner tbey speuk of the labor vote. It must always be remembered tbat there are many thousands of laborers wbo are in no way connected with tlje or ganised labor, and when such men vote to make themselves slaves, it is not tbe fault of organized labor. To toll tbe truth about the whole matter tbero Is not a plank in the populist platform tbat was not first advocated by or ganized labor. Nearly all the laws for tbe protection of tbe producers tbat are on tbe statu U book got there through tbe persistent efforts of labor organiza tions. Tbo populists should always give every encouragement possible 'to these organizations, help tbem to in crease their numbers, defend tbem against the aggressions of tbo pluto cratic courts and In their just demand for living wages. Kot tbat tbey ara al ways right, for tbey are men and as liable aa all otker men are, to sometimes be in tbe wrong, but tbey are governed by correct principles and nine times out of ten they are right. BIRD DAT. Superintendent Jackson bas Issued a very pretty little 24 psge pamphlet to help keep In mind bird and arbor day and stimulate Interest in tree planting and the preservation of th wild birds. Men are often accused of being bar barous and women accredited with much better instincts, but if we remember tbe fondness tbat womon exhibit for tbo plumage of dead birds, it will be seen that they, too, have a good deal of bar barism In their make up. This vanity cause th slaughter of hundreds of thousands of bird annually. The de mand is so insistent for plumage to dis figure th ladies' bats, a disfigurement that rests solely upon their barbarous Instinct, tbat many specie of bird are about to become extinct. After a while, when every appl Is worm specked, when it i almost linpomiibl to rais a garden oa account of tbe swarms of Insect per mitted to prop-gat ODiuoteated be muse all th Insectlverons bird bavo been killed so that their stuffed boJie and dried wings might b Uaeti oa the Ittdie' bats, tbea when It is too late, rg. UUturea will pan laws to protect bird aud th women' clubs will tak th matter up and writ and bold Kvaeipgtua tra, ai which tby will moura ovr th death of the'bird.

WHAT WE BELIEVE, The Independent still stand by the Omaha platform and defends tbe doc trine that "wealth belongs to him who creates it" and not to the indefinable thing called "tbe state" or to the com munity. It will stick to the doctrine that there are certain things that can be better accomplished by tbe government representing tbe whole people tban by any private Individual or corporation. It will also defend the proposition tbat there are many things that can better be done by tbe Individuhl than nnder government direction and control. There are things that are in their nature public. There are things which are in their nature private and cannot be put nnder public control without an up heaval In society such as tbe world has never seen and wblcn would result in disaster to the whole human race. To undertake to make the supply of even one of our great cities a public function, would result In less than a month In an archyand starvation. There are many things now under tbe control of private parties and corporations which are in their nature public functions, such as the railroads, the telegraphs, tha tele phones, street cars, lighting plant, water works and tbo exprees business, The Independent advocates tba owner ship of all of them by tbe government, but the government ownership of every thing and the doctrine that what a man produces belongs to the state In which be shall bave only a common Interest with all the rest . of the 70,000,000 ol the people of this country it opposes. In other words tbe Independent is a populist and not a socialist paper. TAUirr KOIIBEHY, After years of lying about tba tariff tbe State Journal finally gives it up and acknowledges tbat tbe assertion of tbe populists constantly iterated and re terated tbat while tbe American peo ple were compelled to pay on tbe average twice as much for their good as their European consumer, th same goods were manufactured bere at less "labor cost" tban were in by the "cheap labor" of which w have beard so much. In last Sunday's Issue it says: "So tbe Americans have been paying better wages than tbe British employers and yet turning out a given product for less money." Tbat is what tbe populists have always said. It U a fact tbat American Inteligent labor and American machines bave been producing good In tbi coun try for the last fifteen year at a less "labor cost" tban tbey were produced any where in Europe by "cheap labor." At tbe same time tbe consumer have been forced to pay double tbe price for what they bought tbat the people of Europe bad to pay, and all for tbo ben efit of the tariff barons. I it any won der tbat such a policy bas produced the result tbat we see all around us. Three thousand millionaires and million of poverty stricken workers, INSURANCE MAD. The charge that the people have gone insurance mad was further Illustrated last week by tbe Introduction of a bill in the legislature for bog insurance, and it bad quit a number of supporters. One cannot go Into a business office or store or listen to the talk on a street corner without hearing the voice of the insurance solicitor. It is a sort of mad ness tbat bas seised tbe people, and un less there 1 something done to check it or it die like any of tke other fads tbat have time and again pervaded society, it will In th end create worse wrecks and more of them than this suffering world has ever before endured. There I no place in economic for th lnsuranoe theories that bave become so popular, Tbey ar based on no known law of economic, Tbey am outside of th principle ol th' acleno. Insurance can be defended from only on standpoint, and that 1 not economic In it nature. Th ma ol th insured ar always and must of neceaaity always be loaera, Th only basi of Insurance from which It an b defended I benevolence, and that Instantly disappear th moment a com pany b-gin to inak profits, Th only kind of losurano that caa b defended I wber,y a thousand men bind them solve together and agr that if any on of their number uftr a to all th other will roairibut to itiak th lo good.

So the re publican printing committee showed up tbe printed copies with tbe language mutilated, and some of the most im portant part left out. Th outrage was so great tbat a resolution was passed in tbe bouse declaring that tbe printed copies were "wholly unfit for dis tribution." That v kind of work is so contemptible tbat it will do tbe party engaged in it no good, , . i WISH THEY HADN'T. If anyone wants to take a glance at tbe sickest lot of republicans that were ever on exhibition he has only to go up to the state capitol of Nebraska and take a look at tbe fellows that started the Investigating business. Tbey are nice tne follow in tbe bear story. "Thev can't hold on and tbey dasent let go." Tbey all Wish that thev had been dead drunk or out of the state when the thing was started. After weeks of examining witnesses and after expending hundreds of dollars, the summing up shows that tne state bas not lost a dollar, tbat the Insurance companies were not charged half what any competent accountant would charge, (for not one of them will work for lees than 20 a day) and that i tha only malfeosunoe tbat bas been com. i mitted was by one of the renublicnn an. ! prome Judge who drew interest on a warrant long after it had been mild. They cast their net to catch a pop, but wnentuey drew it in. to the r intense astonishment and extreme disgust they found that thev badcauaht a rennblican supreme judge, The whole lot of judges uaa oeen practicing "nepotism." but as tuere is no law airainst it. It is not nn Impeachable offense. The drawing of in terest on a warrant after it waa nald is an act of very different character. It is tn only serious thing tbat bo been dis covered and it I a republican tbat Is guilty and not a pop. No wonder that tbe g. o, p. fellow feel as though tbey were not enjoying good health. The vilest thing that has yet come out about McKinley's white waehlmr commlssion is tbe fact that the board deliberately suppressed the official re ports sf Col. Rosevolt In regard to the rotten beef furnished tbe rough riders. It came out in the examination of Gov. Hoseveltat New York the other day, Rosevolt said that tbe canned beef looked and tasted like tallow and water. Every where tbe evidence goes to show tbat the canned beef that was bought by Egan, Alger & Co., to be fed to the sol dier wa prepared from what is known In the trad a "tankage" and was for. merly need In tbe manufacture of fertil izers. A BAREFACED FRAUD. About th most barefaced fraud tbat wa ever attempted in these United State appears In circular sent out over the country which begin with these words: , "Head quarters of tbe people's party National Committee, Milton Park, chair man." The head quarters of the people party is In Washington and tbe chairman Is Marion Butler and not Milton Park. It is the fashion of Milton Park to talk about dishonest political moves, but if ba can show anything tbat can compare with this in tbe action of any political party since tbe foundations of this trov- ernment were laid, we would like to see blm do it. Tammany Hall never did a thing tbat would compare In vilnnoaa tn tbi action of a set otgjuen who claim tnat mey ar in aanctined political manager of earth. All tbe basis for tbi action I a meeting of a few editor who represented no on but tbemselve. There ia no preten that any delegate convention ever gav sanction to any of their crazy movement. Even after tbe meeting of editor, Milton Park at tended a meeting of th people' party national commit toe and recognized It authority. This can t nothing but a Mark Hanna seheuie, Populist will not be deceived by it. FRANK IAMS . L I A hi if llOKiK MiitIM al t.liMti. Kwitnt,la4 AM.

CipoaiUoQ Wittbirt, Mckinley guilt?. Daring tbe Mark Hanna campaign and at the beginning of tbe war tbe republi- H cans claimed all tbe patriotism in the country. To prove it tbey printed the picture of their candidates on Old Glory and sent their hired generals out cam paigning on Pullman cars, tbe insurance companies and the trusts paying the bills. When the war was under way, tbey began to show their patriotism by . feeding the privatesoldiarson embalmed and rotten beef, th latest testimony being that tha canned beef was mad out of tbo refuse that formerly wa , made up into fertilizers. That caused tbe death of hundreds of men, all done so tbat one of th trusts tbat bad pub up the money to corrupt tbe American electorate could get It back with Interest and a big profit. i To shield the men guilty of this horri ble crime, an assault was mad In the whole plutocratic press upon tbe only general who was patriotic enough to re use to keep silence. That McKlnley waa as foul as the men who did tbe das tardly deed Is shown by bis appoint ment of an investigating committee of eminent republican wboMO duty it was to make a false report in defense of tbe men bo bad been polsoninir our sol diers. It is further shown by bis com mutation of tho sentence of the commis sary general, whom be knew to bo guilty , ofasviloa crime as an officer could i commit, to six years vacation on full pay. The revelations made by witnesses at Chicago proves that McKlnley is guilty, and that the whole gang, Instead of being patriots, are as vile a nest of traitors as ever cursed any notion in all history, The chief criminal I McKlnloy himself. It seems Impossible for the middle-of-the-roader to tell tbe truth even If be know tbat everyone else knows that he Is lying. Dr. Robinson who Is at pres ent heading tbe Motelnger outfit in Indiana, in a long proclamation save in speaking of tbe peoples party: "It grew nnd prospered and was taking on giant proportions until It struck its colors and from then till now. it bas ranldlv da. creased In numbers. Nor has tbe party wttb wblcb it ofilliated hold its retail v strength and prowess but bas suffered overwhelming defeat." Anyone wbo ever read tho official returns of tbe last nrl. den tial election knows that there Is not a word of truth in tbat statement. bven without tbe 2,000.000 nooulisfc rotes cast for Bryan, the returns show that tbo democratic party held more than its "relative otrongtb." Socialism entirely eliminates rellIon. The very essence of the theory make it necessary to do so. Ther are no nro- vieion lor religious worohlp at Ruskin, and nnder their form of organization it will be impossible to provide for anv. Tbe colony authorities conld not engage a minister of any denomination to con duct religious worship and use tbe colony funds for that purpose, a tbe member witbout doubt hold various views. The members of the colony could not pro vide lor it, for tbey hare no money or property of their own-it all belontra In common to the whole community. Tbe religious nature in man can never h ' eliminated. It is constituent, inborn, and an essential part of him. Any so. ciological theory that Ignore It mast be false. Do a little thinking before von call yourself a socialist. Tbe wails of tb director of the mint which ara continually being sent out prov two things. First tbat the peo ple oi tbis country will not use gold for money if tbey can get anything to tak its place that I more convenient. They prefer to use paper money. 8oond tb director la trying to create a sentiment that the banks shall b given th sol authority to iesu paper money to sup ply itus universal demand, Ther la . proUwt from every part of ' the country again goiq oing lorceJ on the people.
