Dubuque, la., took up with tha pop ulilt idea of tha pubilo ownership of the waterworks and at the and of the first year experience everybody held a jubilee. Tha water service waa au parlor to any they had ever had be fore And la highly atiafactory. The figures Indicate, that for tha year, re ceipts were 132,118 and operating ex penses $2S061. The improvement nd repair fund absorbed moat of this, the investment being mainly In perma nent improvements of the . plant. Among these was the sinking of a great well which will furnish ample supply of pure water hereafter. That is the way that populism marches on these days. . - In the old days of Cleveland soup houses, cheap corn and dear money, it took one-half of the farmer's corn to pay the freight on the other half to Chicago. Now with cheap money, that is when a dollar will only buy one fourth as much corn as it did in those dreadful days when they stopped the coinage of silver, it only takes a fourth of the crop to get the corn to Chicago, and the farmer has the proceeds of the other three-fourths to buy goods with. The consequence is that the farmer, the manufacturer and the mill hands are all happy. We told you so a thousand times or more, but you would not believe us. Mr. Mullet Head, do you believe it now? The American Economist, the organ of the tariff league, says: "The farmers of' the United States are getting wealthy. The banks are bulging with their money. Abandoned farms and farm mortgages are a thing of the past, and instead of paying from 6 to 10 per cent for money, our western farmers, after buying all the necessaries and luxuries they want, have money to lend." But the writer forgot to state that all that came to pass after Mc Kinley began to coin silver by the ton and issue paper money by the hundred million. The Economist used to de clare that if the volume of money was increased, repudiation ai.d utter ruin would result. Haven't you heard re marks to that effect even out here In Nebraska? Hardy's Column Death of Ex-Governor PingreeJ Bryan and Towne Should Han gj Stick to the Republican PartyLaw an Un- , certa4ntyJA Ninth Party JlCity Voting, High Protections An Un just Steward Love and Marriage. Governor Pingree is dead. Died in London. No truer friend of . the com mon people-ever, lived. He has left his mark upon the constitution and taws of 'Michigan. " ' It is claimed by the administration that the free, self-government people of the old states have made all the trouble In the islands. So the ''slave- Hrlvere nf the smith rmro thnneht that publicans made all the trouble among the slaves. They said, "Hang Phil lips, Garrison and Greeley and all will be well." Why does anybody who has voted for McKinley twice now want to reor- an,ze lt,e democratic party.' jvny qo iney noi suck, m me rcpuoiicau party and 1st the democratic party go to Bryanlsm? The only reason Is thy vant to kick Bryan out and then con trol both parties for imperialism, trusts, corporations, gold standard and banks. Law is an uncertain quantity. Jus tice is a queer thing. Courts seem to season their decisions with both right end wrong. What is the use of having any written law if intelligent Judges cannot read it alike. Four judges read one way and five read another. One judge out of the nine gives the casting vole. The decision then is five-ninths right and four-ninths right or else four-ninths right and flve-cinths wrong. Why do the republicans talk about organizing a third party for Bryan There are already eight parties in the field with national organizations. Why do they worry so about Brj'an? If Bryan is dead he can do no harm. When we cut a hen's head off we never worry about her scratching in our garden any more. The truth Is: Bryan is not dead and they know Jt. Their garden shows his scratches from one end to the other. J. Sterling Morton in his address be fore the old settlers was right in his advocacy of limiting suffrage in cities on city questions to taxpayers or stock holders in the corporation. Cities are corporations for special privileges and luxuries independent of county, state or nation, and for providing these spe cial privileges and luxuries the men nd women who furnish the money should have the power to dictate how the money should be spent. In al other corporations only the persons who furnish the money have the priv ilege of voting. This doctrine would not hold good In county, state or na tional elections. Everybody, man or woman, who is governed should have a voice in governing. The tendency Is that way all over the world. Decrease the city taxes and to make up levy a pou tax upon every man end woman twenty-one years of age and of sound mind, of five dollars and let every one who pays It before the first of January vote at the city election in April fol lowing. Or if thought best, let none vote but those who have paid at least five dollars taxes within the year and produce a receipt for the payment of the same. in niga protectionists are now boastlsg of how many million dollars worth of tin-plat they are xportin and sailing la European market! at a lower prlca than thay sail to us hsra at home, near where the plate la made. Protection meanae tariff fence around the American conjumera to aato com pt them to par European pricee for all American gooda with the tariff add ed. Tin-plate Is nothing more or leee than thin aheet Iron, and one and one half cents a pound it thirty dollars a ton and we have to "pay that much more for the Iron that la In our dinner pails than the laborers of Etfrope "pay. Every pound of tin that we-, consume Is brought from Europe end we have to pay European price for that .with the tariff added. We then have to dip our high tariff plates Into the ' high tariff English tin and-thue make tin for use. Why should, we .not huy Am erican manufactured,' goods at the same price as other peoples buy them? The parable of the., unjust steward has been a clog to .many a Sunday school teacher. Wherein consisted the injustice? Was the steward unjust to wards the landlord or toward the ten ants? The steward had undoubtedly collected more rent ,than the landlord told him to. and had pocketed the dif ference and It '"Was the money he had squandered. When he corrected the wrong perpetrated upon the tenants of course the landlord commended his action. The mammon of unrighteous ness refers to the business world. WTe make friends in the business world by correcting our wrongs. The meanest man living thinks more of a juet man than of another mean man. There seem to ber three grades of marriageable love: Reason love, money love and lust love. . Reason should be exercised in love and marriage , as much as anywhere else. Age, station in life, education, life associations, habits, tastes and sources of enjoyment must all harmonise in a happy marriage. It is unreasonable for an old bachelor or widower forty or fifty years of age to marry a young girl of sixteen and it is just as much out of line' for-an old maid or widow to marry- a young boy. Corresponding station In life has much to do with happiness after, marriage. If either party has moved in the circles of uppertendum and marrys a com panion from the low, drudging class, the mistake will soon be discovered in most cases. It often happens that a young man or, woman,- after being jilted in their own class,, stoop to the lower class, for a companion and their choice is readily accepted. Happy marriage do not come- that way as a rule. Education of ., the . tw6 should compare favorably aa much as any other quality. The lower class may marry into the upper class and both be happy providing their, education is equal. Ignorance and . Intelligence do not. enjoy each other. , . The ignorant companion may Improve' after mar- rlaee and that ia the only remedy. MJve at nrst sight" is not a safe love to base, marriage upon.,;.. First Impres sions may ds a favorable starting point, but reason and' life comparison snouia follow.- Life-' associations are often severed by marriage, though as a rule nappy marriages 4o not come that way and yet they, are, possible. It Is hard for the society companion to curb that tendency. ' "be a society woman or a society man; lacks but one step jpt being a. spQrtinbjiracter.. Ac quired habits and, tastea should- har monize as far as possible. If one com panion smokes, 'chews and spits, the other must learn to do the same thing or suffer torture.: If one haa a taste for nowers, pictures and, books, the other should cultivate the same taste. If one is particular ia dress the other better stand guard on the : same line. One can come down a little and the other come up and thus harmonize. There is the same danger of' going astray in lines of enjoyment. One may enjoy the dance and card party, while the other enjoj-B ehureh.work and works of benevolence. All the a thine should be taken Into account before marriage. There is but little to be said about money love. A little money with everything else equal is not a bad medicine to take, but to marry money instead of an eaual com panion is the. most foolish marriage ever consummated. . The youns: man or woman who keeps his or her rnonev In the background until other points are seuiea ana the knot is tied is wise. The rich American girl is the most saleable article exported to Europe. It is not uncommon ror a good lookiner. richly dressed American girl to have a dozen offers of marriage in a single nay. ou never hear of a rich Euron ean girl marrying an American. Lust, love and marriage Is still more de grading. It needs but to be mentioned to m ake the devil grin. Ww An Wear K!r t , DrHrtWtMwunM fm enre all k1y UU. Smb. fie free. W.WlW !Un4r A BAD IIJVESTUEMT The stew Wtlh Bmala Dtsgrwatlea Be publicans ef tfc West Went at Tariff Beferm Washington, D. C, June 22. There is more or less talk of third party movements and new movements with in the democratic party at the present time, the object of which movements are supposed to be to keep the party faithful to some Ideal, in the minds of the agitators. It is a little too early for such' dog day movements. During two presi dential campaigns the democratic par ty has succeeded In controlling itself, getting rid of discordant and danger ous elements and . making fights more marvellous than any in the history of the party, considering , that it faced organised corruption, backed by Illim itable and unscrupulous wealth. The democratic party will continue to be a truly reform party lu touch with the needs of the vast mass of its adherents, neither a hospital for cranks nor a camp tor disguised re- L publicans.

When an American article is sold in European markets at so low a prjee even with the freight added and foreign duties paid, as td drive the. foreign manufacturer into bankruptcy, it Is an absolute certainty that that article no longer needs a tariff for pro tection. ' " .. There are more than forty staples of American manufacture backed by cap ital so enormous and so thoroughly or ganized that foreign manufacturers stand aghast at the bankruptcy which threatens them, and which are yet "protected" by a tariff of anywhere from 50 to 100 per. cent. " v . : - While western republicans are vociferous for this tariff reform, far more radical than that proposed by the Wilson till, eastern republicans of the Pennsylvania sort find thtir represen tative in such leaders as Senator Aid rich of Rhode Island, whose snarls that reciprocity treaties and pop-gun bills will find no favor with his con stituents. Those who have watched the prog ress of matters at Washington know well that the democratic platforms of 1896 and 1900 even, though not sup ported by democratic victories at the polls, have had a most marked eftect in modifying republrcan policies. It had been the Wall street program to entirely retire the greenbacks and de stroy the last vestige of full legal tender silver by eliminating the silver certificate and Ita debt-paying quali ties. Yet the silver certificate and the greenback stui hold their own. It had been the republican purpose to wipe out the inter-state commerce commission and to pass, not only a railroad pooling bill, but the ship sub sidy bill. None of these measures has been brought to pass. A tariff wall against the colonial de pendencies is a flxe4 matter of republi can necessity. Yet free trade with Porto Rico will be declared by execu tive order within the next" thirty days, and on the Fourth of July civil govern ment will succeed to military author ity throughout the Philippines. One of the most important issues on which the -democracy will contest the campaign of 1904 .will be the manner of governing the colonial dependencies. If the Filipinos were capable of be coming American citizens It would be a valuable addition to our population. They should be welcomed as American citizens. If they are not they should be given liberty to manage their own affairs after their own fashion and not be exploited for the benefit of a lot of greedy speculators aided by rings or corrupt public officials. . The "republican party was forced to abandon carpet-bagism in the aouth. It will be forced to abandon It in the Philippines and Porto Rico. Senator Jones of Arkansas,, chairman of the democratic national committee, has stated this fully and pointedly in re cent Interviews and he represents the opinions or practically the entire dem ocratic party. -.,.- - . - Secretary Gage has succeeded In pulling on the most unpleasant tariff war witn a foreign country of which we have any history. There has n. erally been some - minor dispute in progress witn ..France and an occa sional difficulty, with Germany over our meat products, but they have all neen capable of amicable and reason. ably satisfactory adjustment: but Sec- rotary Gage's rows are of a different cnaracter. They sharoly illustrate the danger of permitting the executive departments to legislate. There is a provition of the Dingley act which at Iowa the secretary of the treasury to arbitrarily determine and impose an additional duty on sugar comln from a country which permits an export poiinty. i m sugar trust discovered that a few thousand tons of sugar came from Russia in refined form. Russia Imposes a consumption tax on sugar used at home which of course is not Imposed on sugar that is exported so the trust called on Gage to impose the discriminating duty, which he did. nussia immediately Imposed a dis criminating duty on ten times as much commerce coming from the United States. Then the Standard Oil trust se cured a similar discrimination on Rus sian on and Russia hit back aiin. Gage is a bad investment for American commerce. EASTEM1 G. 0. P.

The manner in which the robbery was committed is more audacious than anything ever attempted by Boss Tweed or any other political boss who ever ruled in the. United States. 1 One of the few members of the com mon council who stood out In favor of a chance for the public to .consider the irrevocable action which its represen tatives were asked to take put the sit uation as follows Just before the final vote was taken: - "This lightning-like legislation is without precedent and wholly with out defense. You were asked to delay final action upon these bills for one week, to permit persons in interest to discuss them before our committee. You refused, and in sheer desperation one member asked for twenty-four hours delay, so that he could at least read the bills; and you cried him down., A reputable and competent man offers three-cent fares and rapid tran sit and you bid him begone.

The following is the text of John Wanamaker's letter making an offer of $2,500,000 for the franchises that the council gave away to the republican leaders; . . "For the powers., rights, and fran chises granted and intended to be se cured by the 'fourteen ordinances re ferred to I will give to the city or. Philadelphia the sum of 12,500,000, and a a guarantee of good faith In the matter.
