Is It not depriving a man of his
right to vote on account of previous
condition when the law says you can't
vote unless your father, grandfather
or great grandfather voted. The vote
hinges upon the previous condition of
the parents.
The best news of the week was the
announcement that W. J. Bryan is pre
paring to start a weekly paper In
which to defend Bryan democracy.
Hundreds will be able to read his writ
ing where one may be able to hear
blm talk. No man ever had half the
Influence for good in this country that
Horace Greeley had through the col
umns of the New York Tribune. The J
Held Is as wide for the harvest of truth
and justice now as It was then and
harvesters are In the minority. The
"Commoner" ic an expressive name.
One of the best proofs of McKinley
prosperity can be found in the annual
report of R. G. Dun & Co. The total
number of failures in this country dur
ing the year ending the 30th of last
November was 10.520, sixty of thesa
being bank failures. The total num
ber in was 9,752. fifty-two of these
being bank failures. The increase
was 76S The liabilities this year were
$W4,06G.139; last year the iiab!litie3
were $101,018,466. Another evidence of
prosperity is the number of factories
of all kinds now closed. Nearly one
half are standing idle from various
cause.
We believe it would be a good plan
for the state to start a beet sugar fac
tory on tbe state farm and also a
starch factory. They would go well
with the butter and cheese factories
already there. They need not be very
large. Let farmers raise beets, bring
them and draw sugar at actual cost or
cash as they choose. The government
has got to do these things or ths
trusts are going to govern, more than
tbey do now.
Crime and whisky are partners.
They travel together and sleep in the
same bed. Take the crime of murder
and where the most whisky is drank
there murders multiply. California
bad one murder the last year to ev
ery 3.000 of her population. Maine
had a murder to every 38.000. New
York had a murder to every 14,000.
Vermont had one to every 40.000. Ne
braska had one to every 6.000. Iowa
h?d one to every 11.000. ' Yet they say
prohibition does not prohibit.
We have not seen a single good rea
son given for taxing the people nice
millions a year and giving it-to ship
owners. The only reason given, so
far, is that a lot of merchant vessels
of our own would come handy In case
of another war. No one denies but
that ships can be built for less money
in this courtry than anywhere else in
the world. It Is bard to make mil
lionaires by shipping in competition

with the rest of the -world so the com
mon, people must he taxjed and the
money given to ship owners. , There
would be ten. time? more "justice in
giving it to wheat growers.
It ought not to be counted any more
of a crime for the Chinese to violate
a treaty than for the Americans to do
the same thing. Previous to the Bur
llngame treaty which, was made in
the early sixties, no Chinaman was
allowed to leave . China nor was any
foreigner allowed to settle in. China.
That ' treaty - stipulated Americans
could settle in China and that China
men could settle in America. No limit
was .placed upon . emigration . either
way. Yankees were the first to go
back on the treaty Nations as well
as individuals should respect '" poor
bargains as well as-good ones. -
"A national marriage and divorce
law is now before congress and we
hope' It "will -pass.5 Marriage is an In
stitution that jponcerns every part of
the country alike and a legal marriage
and , a.', legal divorce should be the
same in ' every part' of the country.8
Then If they would make a companion
in marriage the first heir it would be
carrying justice still further. It is a
fact that marriage is the nearest
earthly relation and the law should
so treat it. Young people leave their
relatives and cleave to each other and
it is a great injustice for a relative, of
the dead husband to come in and rob
the widow. It is also unjust that the
child should be permitted to crowtf
the mother out. Children are as safe
in the care of the mother as in care
of the father. Then polygamy should
be prohibited and a severe penalty at
tached. If our Creator had intended
that men should have scores of wives
there would have been born a score of
girl babies for every boy baby. The
sexes, in number, are just about even,
and the ratio holds good all through
the animal kingdom. In a natural state
animals pair off, one of each sex.
Many of the fowls are very strict in
their pairing relations, more so than
humans. Equality before the law
should prevail everywhere, at every
time and with everybody whether wife
or husband.
News of the Week
Two things have compelled the at
tention of the world during the week.
The Boer war for independence has,
however, been the one thing above all
others upon which men have fixed
their eyes. England is in a most de
plorable condition of mind. All their
great generals have declared time and
again that the Boers were whipped
and there was nothing left of them
but a few snipping bandits. Now
these bandits have fought a great bat
tle and thoroughly whipped the well
organized English armies sent against
them commanded by some, of their
most distinguished "generals. In ten
days the Boers have killed, wounded
and taken prisoners more than a thou
sand of the flower of the English
army, and Dewet has not only out
fought, but outmaneuvered the reg
ular army of Brittain and has again
got away with but little loss. -
England Is humiliated. The conti
nental press calls attention to the evi
dence of the most distinguished sol
diers of all England that there is noth
ing in South Africa but a few bandits
and they point to the fact that those
few bandits whipped the flower of the
British army. After that they talk
just as irritatingly as a contCuental
savaga knows how. All that makes
the English editors and English states
men feel very bad indeed.
The fighting has been spread over a
large .extent of country, the chief bat
tle being fought about twenty miles
from Pretoria. Of this battle Lord
Kitchener reports: "The casualties
were, I regret to say, heavy killed,
five officers and nine of other ranks:
missing, eighteen officers and 555 of
other ranks These latter were four
companies of the Northumberland fu
siliers, who were stationed on the hill,
and some yeomanry and other details
sent up to support them. Names and
nature of wounds are being tele
graphed from- Cape Town."
We are in no position to take the
part in these continental quips against
the English statesmen, for we find our
selves in practically the same plight in
the Philippines. Not .only our gen
erals, but the president himself has
frequently asserted that the Philip
pines have been conquered, and that
there were nothing left bu a few ban
dits, the only difference being that the
deceivers have called them "ladrones."
General Otis in making his report
months ago said: "The war in the
Philippines is already over. The in
surrection ended some months " ago.
There will be no more real fighting in
the Philippines. There is no rebel
army, nothing but guerilla bands who
are ladrones, armed robbers who prey
upon their countrymen. Peace is
practically restored all through the
islands Luzon is pacified." And in
his closing sentence he repeats, "The
country has been thoroughly paci
fied." A writer whom the New York Out
look, the great ecclesiastical Imperial
ist paper of the country, calls its
"Special commissioner to the Philip
pines," and who says: "I believe In
the United States retaining the Phil
ippines . " . it is our plain duty
.': ... . that the Filipinos are wholly
incapable of self government, etc.," ber
ing upon the ground feels called upon
to deny these statements of General
Otlsl He denies that the Filipinos now
In the field are "ladrones." : He says:
"It is usual for ladrones to move In
bodies of three, jour or five, hundred
meh? to dress, when they can, in sim
ilar uniform? to observe In any meas
ure the rules of war? to besiege towns
with none but American soldiers in
them and no loot? Does It seem prov
able that sixty thousand troops and
more are needed to keep down bands
of 'armed robbers?'
In another place he remarks: "It Is
a fact well known that robbers and
ladrones respect no rules or customs
of recognized warfare. They neither
give nor expect quarter. They have
no self-respect and. extend .none to
others. -Near San Miguel, Nueva Eci
Ja, the other day, a ban of guerillas
captured an American officers and ten

There is only one way to cure Deaf

and when it is entirely closed Deaf

enlisted, men. After the fight, the. In
surgents escorted two of our men, who
were wounded, to the 'nearest Ameri
can gamson In order that they might
receive, proper medical attention. Of
late an insurgent . officer known as
General Tevson has released several
American prisoners, among whom' is
Captain Roberts, on parole. The Ma
nila papers of August 30 report that
near Pasanjah the , insurgent General
Cailes has just captured seven ladrones
whom our troops . have been, chasing
for some time, and turned them over
to the American commander for pun
ishment. We have a good deal of evi
dence that American prisoners have
been and are . being treated well, and
no evidence to the contrary. Do
these things look like-the work of la
drones, which means thieves or ban
dits?" The truth about the matter is that
the Filipinos have Adopted guerilla
warfare. That is a recognized mode
of warfare among all nations. If tbe
Filipinos had had good tacticians in
command they would have adopted
that style of warfare from the first, In
stead of lining up their men unsup
ported by artillery to be shot down by
the hundred, as they did in the be
ginning. It was the style of warfare
adopted by Sumpter and other gen
erals during our war for independence
and is in fact what gave us our victory
over England.
This writer in the Outlook, whose
name is Phelps Whitmarsh, further
declares that General Lawton was
right when he said that it. would take
100,000 men to "pacify" the Philip
pines. He says that is the opinion of
every military officer in the island3.
"Sixty thousand men," he says" when
they were concentrated in Luzon, were
sufficient, but when that number is
spread out over such a wide, discon
nected territory as the Philippine,
archipelago, Its force at any given
point is lost."
He does not say anything about an
enormous navy which is just as neces
sary as an army. That fact is too of
ten forgotten by the .taxpayers as well
as Mr. Whitmarsh. According to the
official naval reports";there " are con
stantly in service in he -Philippines
something over fifty war vessels of all
kinds. They must alj be kept in re
pair, they, all burn immense amounts
of coal and all have a lull complement
of officers and men who must be paid.
After the islands are . "pacified." the
coasts must be forever patrolled
there are six thousand miles of them
for no one can tell when a conquered
people will become "unpacifled" and
go to importing arms, and preparing
for another attempt at liberty and in
dependence. Let the toast be: "The
army and navy forever in the Phil
ippines." ;o r
The Hay-Pauncefote treaty has been
up for discussion in the senate in se
cret session for nearly two weeks. It
appears that the republican senators
are turning populist on that question
as well as on the coinage of silver, for
it is said that there are sixty-seven of
them who are determined to amend
it so it will accord with the populist
idea on that subject. One or two
amendments have already been adopt
ed which completely change the char
acter of the treaty, giving to the
United States absolute control of the
Nicaragua canal and the right to forti
fy and defend it. It is said that the
senate is now trying to find words
which will abrogate the Clayton-Bul-wer
treaty without giving offense to
Great Britain. Seme of the senators
are demanding that a new statement of
the Monroe doctrine shall be made
that shall say to the governments of
Europe that if the United States wants
to build a canal or do any other thing,
either in the United States or on this
hemisphere, it is none of the business
of any European power and they can
all just keep their hands off. That is
gocd populism. Since the election .tho
senate has made mighty strides in
that direction.

his ship subsidy bill. The populist
senators are said to be holding cau
cuses ancC planning to put all sorts of
bbstructions in his way.. There seems

tion -would be very" uhcbmfortable for
a senator; .especially at the very ; be
ginning of an administration. . Four
years on the outside with all the com
missions to be appointed and at least
three thousand commissions to be be
stowed on the officers for our new
army, including forty brigadier gen
erals and about twelve major gen
erals, would be a situation that no
senator would like to place nlmself in.
It is the opinion of The Independent
that while Hanna may have some
trouble he will get his' steal through,.
He can command McKinley and Mc
Kinley's frown at a time when more
life appointments am to be bestowed
than in all the history of the govern
ment .before makes the stoutest
hearted senator tremble in his boots
when he thinks of it.
Hanna's . bill is the unfinished busi
ness in the senate and must come up
every day until disposed of unless
there is an appropriation bill before
the house. Appropriation bills always
have the right of way oyer everything
else. That being the case, he may not
be able to get a vote on it at this .ses
sion, but "McKinley has' already an
nounced that he is going to call an
extra session, and then there will be
no appropriation bills, unless one or
two happen to fall of passage. Then
will be Hanna's time. Then will be
the days of appointments The pat
ronage will be put on one platter and
the subsidy bill on th pt net and the
senators will be told that they must
take both or none at all. Mac arid
Mark are mighty men made so 'by:
the votes of the people and when they
both give a pull together something
has got to come or break.
No one in the best informed cir
cles in Washington believes that a
Nicaragua canal-bill will be passed by
this congress or the next. Wars, na
vies, armies, subsidy bills and other
"necessary" things will foot up a sum
in the appropriation bids that will en
danger the supremacy of the party it
anything more is added to them. The
republiccns have the destiny and
world power business to enrry on an-
that costs money. Then there is an
other reason why such, a bill cannot
be passed. All the through-line rail
road corporations -are opposed to Iti
No bill has ever yet passed congress
which they really desirtd to defeat.
Grover Cleveland has been giving
out interviews He thinks that dem
ocracy needs reorganizing. "With a
sincere return to old .times doctrines."
he says, "the old time victories of the
democratic party will certainly be
won." No doubt about it. Just such
victories as democracy Won in the six
ties and for some twetity years after
wards. Having covered the democratic
party with an odium that years will
never obliterate, he now wants to give
advice as to its future. The republi
cans who aided him made their; big
gest gains by referring to. his , resign .of
soup houses. He stopped the coinage
of silver ard produced ruin. The re
publicans began coining it again and
brought prosperity thereby. Now this
old tub of mtestir.es wculd have us. go
back to when no silver was coined and
ruin stalked through the land. . There
are some democrats who are fools
enough to believe in that, but-they-are
very few, . indeed. .
The Filipinos, according to the lat
est dispatches, keep things from grow
ing stale as far as they are concerned.
They burned a town occupied by our
troops in the island of Panay and a
body of them got within four miles of
Manila when they were' surrounded
and surrendered. So it seems that the
"pacification" does not extend very
far from the army headquarters and
the rooms of the commission who pass
laws which are entitled "be it enacted
by the authority of the president of
the United States." -
Negotiations in China seem to be in
the same fix that they have been for a
long time. The ministers agreed on a
joint note, the United States objected.
Then they fixed up another and Ger
many kicked. Then they tried it again
and England would have none of it
Meartime the gererals have their lit
tle bouts. The biggest of themseem
to be in about the same fix that Grant
was .ifter HaUeck went to Pittsburg
Landing only their Halleck is 10,000
miles away. Meantime old Li Hurg
Chang keeps on manuracturing arms
and acting in ways to convince all on
lookers that the heathen Chinee, is

pedirg large eums of money for rice
to keep the people from starving. Hav
ing destroyed the railroads, burned
the cities and desolated the farms, we
are now called upon to furnish our
share of money to feed the people. Tha
"powers" move in a mysterious way
their wonders to perform.
A lot of the loot secured by the
French troops in China arrived ; at
Marseilles the other day and vtbet
French government by the order to"
President Loubet, refused to receive
it. The president says the articles
cannot be considered as prizes of war
and do not belong to the government
or tha soldiers who seized them. ,The
papers say that this Is the result "of
Chaffee's vigorous protest.
While the Associated press sends
but scraps of the arguments presented
by those who believe that the consti
tution covers every portion of the ter
ritory of the United States, It gives
columns of the argument ; presented
by Attorney General Griggs, who takes
the ground that the constitution does
not follow the flag, " which ; can be
summed up in two of his own sen
tences, to-wlt: "The constitution does
not extend of Its own force over ac
quired territory" "International, law
declares that the new sovereign may
deal with the Inhabitants of conquered
or ceded territory and give them such
laws as it sees fit."
V Soon" after Attorney General Griggs
Degan ms argument, jusuce .Brewer
asked him if he did not think that the
constitution was In force in Arizona
and New Mexico. Mark Hanna's law
yer replied that he would argue that
question after a while.
