And I know that no civil law can properly in terfere with any man's religion. I believe in polygamy art much as I believe in praying, or singing or preaching, or tak ing a collection. And I have the host authorities for declaring my arrest and iruprisonmont in this caso unjust and vnco&stitutional. ' May I mention -tho authorities?" "Well, I am willing to permit you to emote authorities, absurd as is the posi Won yeu assume." "Thank yon, judge. Mr authorities .are the president of the United States nd the sultan of Sulu who rules one of mc new possessions, where our glorious flag is now waving as an emblem of civil aau religious liberty. Hip, hip, hurrah! lor beg your pardon, judge. You see I always become enthusiastically patri otic whenever I see or even talk about the dear old flag. Well, now, if a man living in one of our new possessions, thousands of miles from here, but part of, us, is permitted to enjoy religious lib- erty to the extent of pluratizing his wivos, why may not a man living right here nnd paying tribute to tho landlords in one of our old possessions, exercise the same natural religious right?

Altge.lt hi his Hpcbch at Omaha read some letters and other documents concerning an Ohio boy who had enlist d for love of country and gone to Manila an the defense of the old flag. The facts of thin caso should bo known to all the people of these states, as it Is only an ex amplo of the work that Otis is doing un dec tho orders of McKinley" in the effort to establish militarism in .this country What thia Ohio boy has suffered, thous ands of your sons will sudor and worse, when wo have a great standing army This part of the speech should be print ed in every paper in the land that is op tioned to Imperialism. . McKinley has pardoned great many national bankers, but this patriotic boy who- borer, committed any crime he would jiot pardon. It is not at all un rersontfblo. thai a boy brought up under oac free gpf eroment should not know M tBatundcr militarism, it was a crime to address a letter to an oflJcejr. ' lie may not have known that he mado himstflf liable to severe punishment to even speak to a man wearing shoulder straps. That is the law and in tho regular army and it is enforced to the letter. That i-J what your sons wUl have to submit to if tho "republican party succcods in down ing the declara ion of independence and the constitution and establishing a great standing army. Gov. Altgeld said: , "Tho American people were shocked at the revelations of the recent Dreyfus trial. Yet, my friends, the conditions ex isting in 1' ranee as disclosed in that )reyfus trial, aro the natural and the legitimate outgrowth of militarism. It rests on brutality and force. JNo set of men who are permitted to eatbiend that earned by the sweat of other men s brows understand free institutions or are safe guardians of liberty. It was a man swaggering in a glittering uiiilorm who recently declared that wo linrl outgrown the constitution. Brushing the constitu tion aside with brass buttons and a sword is a performance that the world has become familiar with, ana it always signilies tho niuio thing. Do not delude yourselves, my friends, with the idea that militarism in America will be dif ferent from what it is in the countries of Europe. The spirit of militarism is the same everywhere and always produces tlio samo results. According to military aw a private is not permitted to speak to a cnmmtMMoncd otIlcir and under no circumstances can he speak or write to a commanding olllcer, There is an im passable gulf between tho man wearing shoulder straps and the man carrying a gun. Any system based upon such a principle as that is in deadly conflict with our institutions, I do not wish to reflect on all oBicers, but to show you how far military snobbery and insolence has already gone in our army, I call your attention to an incident that lately hap pened at Manila. An Ohio boy named Lawrence St Hoon, tho son of respecta ble parents at Hello Center, Logan coun ty, Uhio, when barely of age, enlisled in ompany Ij, I'ourtu United States vol unteer infantry and was sent to Manila. lie seems to have been a bright, steady and ambitious boy, of whom any father would be proud. While at Manila he heard that there were to be some pro motions from tho ranks and that they were to be based on competitive exami nation. He wanted an optwrtunity to compete, and not knowing that it was ugainst the rules for n private to write to tho Commanding oltlcer, he wrote a polite noto to General Otis asking per mission participate in tho competitive examingtion, Now, my friends, if there is anything that is laudable and com mendable about the American character it is the disposition to stand on merit, it is that spirit of self -reliance that . has mado this republic great. That young man showed tuat he had in him the j metal to make a successful man and a useful citizen. There is not a father in this audience but what would feel proud over having such a son. What do you suppose Gen eral Otis did with that letter and with that young man? Sent him for one year to the penitentiary, then to be dishon orably discharged from the army. He would not even touch it, but had it re turned to the young man. A letter from a private was something that this mili tary snob would not touch. The young man was arrested and thrown into prison and after lying three months, he was triod by a commission of six officers and was condemned to one year imprison ment in tho penitentiary held back $75 of tho pay that was due him. While in prison the young man wrote a letter to his father who was dying of consumption at his home in telle Center, O. This letter was smuggled out of prison and got into the mail. It is one of the most pathetic stories that I know of in all literature, and 1 will read it: ."Manila, P. I., Aug. 7, 181K). My dear father: It is a painful task I um now en deavoring to perform, not for uiyself.but the thought of causing you pain. In your condition it is madness, but I can not for the world refrain from telling you tho crises of my life and the death of fond hopes. I came hero as patriotic a holdier as ever donned the blue, ambi tious and enthusiastic. An order came for the promotion of one from each regi ment. Like the moth, I longed for tho star that was my doom and forwarded a letter to General Otis asking to lie granted an examiiiHtion. His secretary burned it and I was arrested, the first time in my life, as you know, charged with addressing a suiierior officer with out consent of i -termed iate officers. I did not know it was a crime and not fifty of my regiment knew it. My cap tain told mo I would be lined SI or S'JO. Hut I was one whom they made a warn ing of to others. liy a court of six oftic ers I was dishonorably discharged and sentenced to one year in liilibid military prison, lino year for an act 1 knew not was wrong. Xo ono had a better record than I for faithfulness. Never tasted wine nor missed a call. And, oh, that discharge! I left a good home, God itlcss it, gtxid prospwta for a future, you nn invalid ona needing, my help, enmo over 8,(KX) to serve my country in burn mg suu and blinding mm, and God, to what an end! Hut in the eyes of my an gel mother, whoM love we cherish, 1 know I am. as guiltless of criminal inten tion as I was at birth. 1 faced the bullets and even the sting of a Mauser without a murmur; and, worse, my health hv been sacrificed in time of duty. nd then confined three months without trial; sentenced to one long, dreary year, then thrown uimn scornful world in disgrace, a phvsical wreck and dishonor to the Hag I fought toshield. They even retained five months of my hard earned pittance, ti. I am confined with all classes, tho coarsest brutes. I never was used to it and it galls me sorely. My lesson is very so vero and fifto-en months of my life t blank. A starved intellect, you on your acainnea: i, scourged ry tho iasu of an instant's folly. I am unable to be with you. I would ten thousand times rather serve my time in innocence than to have my liberty and a guilty soul. When the wheel of fortune is lowest it then slowly begins to rise. This w my only hope. Were I a criminal I would never face you again. I cannot for my life tell of what avail it is to keep me here. I can no longer be a soldier, but their will is law and I hope God will spare us till we meet again. God keep you and blese you, my loving father. From your only ' LAWRENCE F. IIOOX. Company K. Fourth United States Vol unteer Infantry. On receiving this letter the father wrote the following letter to Governor Husbnell of Ohio: , Belle Center, Sept. l 110: -Go ernor Asa Bushnell, Columbus, O. Dear Sir; You will rind enclosed letters from my son in the Philippine islands. Please read them carefully him ifv you can do anything for him m " tliiinks will be everlasting to you. You will probably understand his case better than I do. If my health would permit I would seek a private interview with you. I have tubercular trouble and am afraid if he stays until May we will never meet here on earth. He is my only child. His mother died with consumption ten years ago. He is of a frail conslitution, tall and slender, 22 years old and as patriotic a boy ss ever lived, but I think . his de sire for promotion made him do what he did. I feel the disgrace of a dishonora ble discharge worse than his confine ment, and if you could only do koiuo thing to shorten his stay and let me see him again you can't realize what a favor you would conler on a sick father. Please do what.you can. I enclose stamped envelope, addressed. Please let me know as soon as . possible what you can do. Yours truly, L. G. HOON. And Governor Bushnell wrote the fol lowing letter to President McKinley: Columbus, ()., Sept. 14, 18J9;-To his excellency, William McKinley, Presi dent of the United States, Washington, D. C Dear Sir: I send you herewith a copy of a communication from one of our boys at Manila, a private of com pany K, Fourth United St ites infantry, who seems to have been a victim of ig norance, rather than a willful desire to commit crime. Ho is tho son of a wor thy citizen of Ohio, who is an invalid and feels veryjkeenly the disgrace of his son. It does seem as though this young man had been too severely punished, and that his is a case deserving your clemency. Will you not intervene in his behalf by sending a cable to tho military authorities to have his sentence revoked and him given an honorable discharge? I also encloso a copy of a letter from the father of the soldier, which I am sure will appeal to your sympathy and sense of justice. I have felt that this case was one that would justify my coming di rectly to you and making the request I have. May I not hope for your early in terference in this case and notification that favorable action has been taken? I have the honor to be very respectfully yours, ASA S. BUSHNELL. My friends, I do not wish to do tho president on injustice, but I have watch ed the papers since the publication of these letters to see if McKinley would rebuke this milttary snobbery and set that boy free, and as an American citi zen I am sorry to have to say that up to this timo tho president has been so busy delivering himself of platitudes about the flag and about the glories of patriot ism that he has not had time to do this simple ai:t of justice" to an American young citizen wno, iu my judgment, is worth more to tho republic than a thous and uniformed snobs who eat bread that is earned by the hands of the American laborer. My friends, this is militarism. This is imperialism. This is McKinley- lsm. Do you want it? ' Bugler in the Hear. TO Et'DIAED KIPLINQ.

' Civiliattion has advanced in some ways, but in religion it must have gone back.' Bishop or clergy who advo cates war without a cause cannot be a good citizen.

It may bo of the upper four hundred kind who need something to stir their slug gish blood as in' the old Iloman days of Nero. Lifo was cheap in those days Extravagance pervades all society. They want more gold and woine weak nation must furnish it to keep tho capitalist moving. The capit.-uwts of this great republic set the people this evil example. The men with one idea, who are in Ixindon as well as in New York, whose hobby is the gold standard, tbmk it will double their wealth.

The news of the consolidation of vir tually the entire railway business of the country under one management suggests that parents who are tired of the old nursery rhyme "This little pig went to market," as played on the toes or fingers of the baby, may now vary it to adapt it to the inculculation of the principles of modern American political economy into the minds of the future citizen. The rhyme so adopted might read: This li' tie pig (Morgan) works the coal mines; , This little pig (Armour) packs the moat; This little pig (Pillsbury) turns the flour mills; This little pig (Frick) sells the iron; And this little pig (Vanderbilt) ruas all the railroads In this way the future American citi zen might learn even in his cradle that in bis favored country the control of the great necessaries of civilized life bread, meat, fuel, iron and transportation rests with a list of captains of industry not more numerous than the "little pigs" represented by the fingers on one hand or the toes of one of his infantile feet-N. Y. World. Trumped Cp Claims. The so-called Transvaal question has leen nurelv truinned un. There has leen no real ground of dispute on Great Britain's part with President Kruger's government. England has demanded a variety of things to the internal admin istration of a country which had the fullest right to order iU internal affairs according to its own preferences. With out acknowledging the right of England to raise any questions ns to internal tax ation, naturalisation, school administra tion, nnd tho like, the Transviml has nevertheless permitted itself to discuss such questions for several years, and has made very considerable concessions for the sake of avoiding, if possible, a con flict with an irresistably powerful oppo nent: But Mr. Chamberlarft as British colonial 1 secretary, has ingeniously changed his demands from time to time. Certain large stock market interests also have systematically maintained propaganda for stirring tip the English people. Their theme has been tho suf fering of British subject in the gold mining districts through the oppressive conduct of thn Boer government We have repeatedly discussed these alleged grievances and have pointed out their absurdity and their falsity. The British subjects in the Transvaal are there tem porarily for the most part They have never had the slightest idea of giving up their British citizenship and becoming naturalized subject of the Transvaal republic Yet England for months had been preparing for war on a most elabo rate scale, with no pretext that any one could aive except that President Kruger was not willing to make the term of years requisite for naturalization quite as short as Mr. Chamberlain thought it ought to be.

Three Leaders. The three campaign orators Who have attracted most attention this year are Bryan, Itoosevelt and Hanna. The only genuine orator of the trio is Bryan. An imperial view of our public affairs for the last three years must re sult in the conclusion that a real orator has been developed in him. Bryan has eloquence, leadinpss and persuasive power in a rare degree. It is idle to deny him the possesison of these qual ities. If we may take the testimony of those who know him, he is honest, pure and sincere in his character. He has shown not only a sweet and forbearing disposition under abuse, but a remark ably sound judgment in his manner of meeting it, and an unusual fairness to ward his political opponents in his method of argument Koosevelt is a man who had something of tho same traits as Bryan in the begin ning of his political career, lie; too, was honest, able and upright We arc sufficiently charitable toward him to suppose that he means to be so still. Hut he is very different from Bryan in other respects. He is lucking in the quality of moderation and fairness in meeting an adversary, and he is con spicuously deficient in discretion. He has abandoned independence and gane into the unqualified service of party. There has been no man on the stump who is more intolerant toward political opponents, none less disposed to do jus tice to a political adversary. It may make him more popular with the ex treme men of his party as a candidate for the presidency, but his deficiency of discretion, which he does not seem to have overcome, will, we think, be a se rious obstacle to his availability. Of Hanna less needs to be said. He is the type of the! unscrupulous poli tician in oratory. Ho seems to feel no responsibility beyond producing effect for the moment no care for the verifi cation of what he offers as facts in his speeches. No oratorical reputation of value was ever attained in such a way. Boston Herald. Why does Wheat Fall ? The Philadelphia Press says: "Broorahairs estimate f the world's wheat crop is 2,l!H5,O0O,X)O- bushels, a decline of :0,000,030 bushels as com pared with the yield of last year: Other European experts made the decrease as against last vear's crop from 281,000.000 bushels to 377,000:000. It may be taken for granted that the vield this 'year will 15 lelow 2500.0' K,000, or.sav,350,(00,"V0 bushels below 1803 and 225,000.000 bush-' els below 1.7.

McKinley prosper ity man please tell tis why wheat contin ues to slowly decline in price all tie time? No. 3 spring wheat is now worth on the Chicago market only a little over GO cents a bushel. Is it possible that the pops have told the truth all the time about this matter? There aro no fam ines in India'or crop shortages in Argen tina, but there is a general shortage, taking in the whole world. Why then does wheat and corn constantly decline? Even the increase in the output of gold has not been enougn t hold it up. The shortage of money in New York still continues and the crops cannot le moved at the present prices. That's all there is to it RAILROADS IN POLITICS. When Bryan spoke atTacotna Tark in this county in June, tho Milwaukee re fused to run a special train from Eu reka unless a cash in advance guarantee of $400 was put up by the Park managers. When he spoke at Madison, the company required a like guarantee for a special train from Sioux Falls and then charged 11.00 per ticket more than the regular fare. Now that McKinley is to speak in Aberdeen this company will run specials from North, South, Last, and V est, at half fare and require no guarantee at all from anybody, who said the railroads were not in polities?
