THE BANKERS RESERVE LIFE
As an American Public Institution
Joins in a Royal American
Welcome.
Americans have no especial rever
ence for kings or emperors, for mon
archies, or inherited public titles. But
the American people rejoice at the op
portunity of welcoming royalty to her
shores when royalty comes represent
ing a great nation. - America extends
the right hand of fellowship to evtvy
land in the civilized world and ac
claims the representative not because
of his birthright as a ruler, but be
cause of the good will Columbia bears
to
ALL SISTER NATIONS.
Prince Henry will find Americans
hospitably huzzaing wherever he ap
pears and invites him to carry back to
the stalwart nation which honors him
as a prince royal a message of amity
unci genuine friendship.
Germany and America are nevu;
likely to engage in any form of war
fare involving armies and navies,
whatever commercial reprisals and
controversies may come into their
business relations.
THE BANKERS' RESERVE LIFE
admires the German character, the
German nation and the German loyal
ty to the German fatherland. Among
Its policy holders it numbers many of
German birth and descent. It claims
the right, therefore, to join with Amer
icans generally in the felicities of this
occasion.
Should Prince Henry come to Oma
ha, B. H. ROBISON, PRESIDENT,
will be more than pleased to show the
royal guest that here in Nebraska we
have built up a life insurance com
pany in four years which ranks amorg
the best in the union for its age. It
would probably startle him to know
that one of the oldest and strongest
(astern companies was sixteen years
old before it reached the volume Oi
business carried today by the Bank
ers' Reserve Life.
PRINCE HENRY IN OMAHA,
would be a notable guest. He would
hay with every other thoughtful per
son that it is folly to send away $1,
500,000 of savings annually to secure
indemnity which can as well be pur
chased at home.
The German government is strong
because of the loyalty of its people
to the fatherland. The west can be
strong upon the same principle. Let
us stand by our home enterpriser..
Three new states are to be opened im
mediately. Write to B. H. RobisoD.

EDICT FROM HADES
The BiZ7rl Circular and How the Money
1'ower Proceeded to Enact it
Into Law
(The Independent is afraid that
some thousands of its readers ir the
eastern states will not understand
many of the allusions in the following
lot?er from a populist farmer an-l
worker in reform residing in this
state. The old readers know all about
the Hazzard circular and the other
things alluded to in the article, but
for the benefit of its new readers it
will say that the Hazzard circular
was a document sent to the national
bankers in the sixties outlining the
policies that have been pursued by
the John Sherman style of financiers
in the republican party ever since. It
is a fact that the government bonds,
when issued, were payable in green
backs. They were sold to the bank
ers for forty cents on the dollar and'
that afterwards they got these bonds
made payable in specie and then de
stroyed half the specie money. That
was called by the republican leaders
"honesty." The plutocratic and sub
sidized press has kept all these facts
from the people and not one of them
would dare to print the truth about
the matter today.)
Editor Independent: What does it
mean? One would infer from reading
republican papers (of which a number
come to my address labeled paid one
year in advance) that the people of
this country never knew what goorf
times resembled until the present. In
reading them a query is raised in my
mind as to what designation' history
will apply to the present age. Of the
past we read of different ages, such
as the stone age, etc. The query with
me is. will this age go down in his
tory as the soft soap age? It cer
tainly will if these papers have any
thing to do with the making of his
tory. One of these papers my agricul
tural republican paper puts in a won
derfully concocted protest and pitiable
plea in behalf of the poor farmer over
the shipment of potatoes into this
country from Scotland and Germany.
Being a farmer myself, I would like
to get a few of them, if they can be
CATHARTIC
CA.NDY
Dracxbta.
Genuine stamped CCC Never' sold In bulk,
mwarc oMhc dealer who tries to sell :
bought for less than $1.25 per bushel.
But then it Is a great hardship on the
farmer to have a foreign product come
in competition with, his in seasons
when he does not have; the product
with which to compete, but on the
contrary has to buy or go without,
for this competition comes at.no other
time than that of a crop failure.
But the greatest query to my mind
is whether, after all, this nation has a
constitution, or a something like what
some people say of the Bible, can be
construed to mean anything. This
query is raised by reading republican,
speeches and late decisions of plu
tocracy's court. If these are infallable
and one must Delieve they are or be
anarchists it is hard to, determine
whether as a nation we are rudderless
or governed by a mystified,' rope of
sand. In this dilemma the writer
pleads guilty to being an anarchist.
He has been taught Dy ' decisions of
the United States supreme court and
statesmen of other days that the
Declaration of Independence was the
interpreter of the constitution, and
that whatever rights that declaration
declares to be the rights of mankind
the constitution protects them in such
rights.
But neither the letter nor the spirit
of the constitution nor the. rights of
humanity have any consideration in
those pretended Interpretations. It is
another, not one, but a twofold con
sideration. The surface one of which
is the spoils to feed the hungry hangers-on.
The other one is so old and
bewhiskered, vicious and rotten that
it would require the writing of vol
umes to portray it in all of its infamy.
The full text of Its first edict from
Hades, by way of Lombard street,
London, would have to be given in
full, known as "The Hazzard Circu
lar," defining the British method of
controlling labor. A synopsis of all
vicious legislation in conformity there
to in the past forty years, a summary
of which is:
The attitude of Great Britain during
the civil war.
The "purposely depreciation of the
greenbacks," as declared by John Sher
man in a report to congress, December
12, 1867. The national bank act in
conformity thereto.
The expressed intent by Jay Cook,
fiscal agent of the government, to put
$1,000,000,000 of national bank "prom
issory notes" in circulation- miscar
riage of this scheme, and causes there
of. "The credit strengthening act."
The second climax reached. The act of
July 14, 1870, to refund into specie
bonds bonds bought with greenbacks
and payable in' greenbacks, and
bought at a cost of 46 cents in specie.
The destruction of one-half of the
country's specie money, by the act of
February 12. 1873, and the consequent
revolt of the people in 1878. TIip
makeshift silver legislation of 1878
and 1890. And the repeal of , that legis
lation in 1893. The silver summersalt
of and deceptive open surrender of
the republican party to the money
trust in 1896.
It would seem that a scheme sought
to be consummated for forty years
without success would be abandoned.
But hot so. Partial success, and re
inforced by a, newborn set pf pirates,
brought into existence by . laws the
most damnable and whose very life
blood depended upon conditions iniml
cable to the propaganda of bond and
bank servitude. New fields arid great
er means of exploitation and the piling
up of more national debt, that all
might have a slice was devised to
further their continued robbing of the
people or that robbery would come to
a halting place in time, and that an
army might be in readiness to protect
them in their legalized robberies a
war of conquest was resorted to and
"outlying posessions seized that would
entail the expenditure of billions of
money and compel a bond issue for a
banking basis. If any truly American
understanding looks upon this his
tory, and at, and sees present conuT
tians and tendencies in their true
light and contrast them with the
history of the rise and fall of every
republic or partial republic since the
dawn of history and does not feel like
getting his gun he certainly has lost
the patriotism and fire of the fathers of
the republic. That they have lost
that patriotism and love of American
institutions cannot be presumed, but
are simply sleeping upon the brink of
a vortex, lulled to sleep , by the siren
song of the greatest set of villians that
ever cursed a free people since the
dawn of history. If the true inward
ness of which was clearly seen and
clearly understood by the American
people and if not abandoned at once
a billion of patriots would be in arms
in less than six months. But as it Is,
the truth of the assertion of the once
Pennsylvania railroad magnate, that
he could "hire one-half the" fools to
shoot the other half," would now prQve
to be true. I cannot believe It will be
true when the people are awakened
as they will be some day to the enormity-of
present crimes. I may be a
dreamer-pessimist for it is clear to
my mind that the one object sought
by monarchial powers is to destroy the
revolutionizing effects of past tenden
cies of American institutions through
present entanglements. These have
been a protest, if not a menace, to
every monarchial system on the globe,
and as peoples become . enlightened
one or the other systems must fall.
I believe it to be one of the im
mutable things of Jehovah that tyran
ny over His creatures will go down
before the sweep of this giant repub
lic, but I also believe that we are now
building for the greatest . carnage of
blood the world has ever seen before
that Creator-intended object is con
summated. I believe, that every mo
narchial government on earth will be
hurled against this republic when all
other means of destruction fail. The
past teachings and example of this re
public has been a menace to every
crowned head on this earth even
the poor "half naked" Filipino caught
the inspiration. What will the future
historian write? Will it be that ty
rants succumbed without a struggle
a struggle unto the death? Such Is
not past history. Then what is our
duty as to entanglement with those
tyrants? Is it to mask their guns upon
our citadel of liberty? That Is just
what we are now doing.

" Who Commanded?
which accept my thanks. Please al
low me to remark that your comments
on my article on the Sampson-Schley
controversy y are noted especially
where they seem to be foreign to the.
point, of my. criticism of the great
commanders of our army and navy.
I . have taken no exception to their
opinions whatever they may be as
regards Sampson's '.'bad manners"
after the victory of Santiago was won,
but to the opinions they have ex
pressed as to who was in command
in that battle. I fail to see the sound
ness of their position on that point.
The -Independent says: "The men who
fought and won the battle should have
bren given recognition for the glorious
work they did," and further, that "it
does not seem strange to The Inde
pendent that the two great command
ers cf our army and navy should hold
that opinion." Certainly not! I can
heartily agree with The Independent
in that, but please don't let it "help
itself" at my expense and lug In a
point I did not raise, for the reason
that it did not affect the question .of
command and was no factor in the
fight. In this The Independent shifted
my aim so as to hit its own bullseye
instead of the one I was aiming at.
But we will let that pass. As papers
go now-a-days, I feel sure The Inde
pendent is "worth saving," and I en
close a dollar to prove my words. I
hope that many others may do like
wise, and to that extent that will en
able The Independent to still further
add to Its prestige and influence on
the lines it advocates. It Is a gran-I
good paper. FRANCIS KEYES.
Springfield, Mass.
The above letter contained the fol
lowing clipping, which is a rather ac
curate history of the doctrines advo
cated by the people's party:
Account yourself happy if it be your
lot to espouse some noble and unpop
ular cause in the beginning; to stand
by its cradle, to throw yourself on
its broad altar; to see it grow, to help
it grow: to see it first arouse curiosity,
then attention, then contempt, then
hatred, .then fear, then respect; al
ways growing and growing; until at
last, over prejudice and hate and
party and old customs and vested in
terests, the irresistible current makes
its way. Author Unknown.
THAT SOLDIER'S LETTER
A Soldier Fighting- Simply to Kill Niggers
Should not Howl He Don't Seem
to Know Hia Place
Editor Independent: I read the let
ter published in the last issue of The
Independent written by the young sol
dier from the Philippines with consid
erable interest. His language is more
expressive than eldquent, but " I sup
pose that we ought not be to severe in
our censure because of that. No doubt
he is a republican, if not, he ought to
be. No person but a republican ought
to go into a business that is so de
praved as the Philippine war. I won
der if that man ever heard of the thir
teen colonies fighting for their inde
pendence, and King George proclaim
ing that the colonists did not know
enough for self-government. I could
not help thinking that this young man
never heard of the Declaration of In
dependence much less reading it.
There is that old constitution, too,
an old stale document that a carpet
bag government don't have to respect
He puts up a great wail about sym
pathy and that all the people say to
him that he had no business going to
the Philippine war. I think they tell
him the truth, and if he lives long
enough he will know as much without
being told.
He speaks of all the honors and re
"spect being shown to the veterans of
the civil war, no wonder they fought,
Med and died for a righteous cause
and to free a lot of negroes who were
as black as this republican administra
tion. They did not say, d d the ne
groes. Why should this young man
say, d d the Filipinos who are fight
ing for their independence. They are
only doing what our forefathers did
and I don't blame them. But I do
blame the republican administration
for waging war on an alien race that
wants independence. The young man
who is foolish enough to go into the
army to help subjugate those Fili
pinos and then comes home sick and
expects a seat in the front row, is
simply foolish and he will find it out
when it is too late, like this wailing
young man.
The old soldiers will be honored as
long as they live and when they are
laid away in mother earth we will
place bouquets upon their graves as
long as these United States remain a
republic. But the man who fights to
enslave an alien race and damns the
negro because he is fighting for his
freedom and native land will be for
tunate indeed if he can have a slab to
mark the lone spot..
A man who goes to war for an unholy-
cause is not entitled to honor
or sympathy. Why don't those im
perialists go to the : Filipino wars.
They lay claim to the justice of their
cause and that God is leading the re
publican party and dropped the Phil
ippine islands in their laps; and also
those preachers in high places that
claim that the Declaration of Inde
pendence was the biggest lie that ever
was palmed off on a credulous people
and advocate shooting the religion In
to the Filipino people will have to get
a different kind of religion or they are
liable to wake up some morning and
find that they have migrated to a cli
mate where palm leaf fans are In great
demand. -
This war is strictly a republican war
and I am , willing for those republi
cans who are anxious to have those
"niggers," as they call them, killed
to go and help do it. I am sure there
would be no objections from the dem
ocratic side of the house. I would
suggest , that all the republican con
gressmen and senators enlist for four
or five months during their vacation
get back to congress they will be more
able to judge whether'the Declaration
of Independence is an old stale rag
and has outlived Its usefulness or is
a more precious document than ever.
In order for those fellows to be ex
perts along this line they ought to
have at least three months of as hard
fighting as the First Nebraska, then I
think that every one of them would be
able to read and understand the mean
ing of the Declaration of Independence?.
There is no use wasting time on such
fellows. Their mission Is to yell
"traitor," "copper-head" and the like
and pat the fool mullet head ton the
back (as The Independent calls themL
You couldn't pull them into the1 Phil
ippine war with a span of mules. So
don't grieve, young man, if you don't
know any better than to enlist in such
an unholy cause.
If a man don't know any better than
to vote for a republican administra
tion he should enlist at once to kill
"niggers." That is the country where
Governor Taft says they do not allow
the Declaration of Independence or
constitution of the JJiiiied States read,
so 1 think" that 13 a good country for
the republicans to go "to. They cer
tainly don't like the looks of that old
stale rag in this country. What should
a common soldier in-the Philippine
war expect in the shape of sympathy
when a brave naval officer like Schley
has been condemned as a coward and
yet they say that he was in the thick
est of the fight and behaved nicely,
while Sampson ran away and fighting
Bob Evans crawled into the conning
tower. ' Yet Evans and 'Sampson, ac
cording to this republican administra
tion, are the heroes and Schley the
coward. A common soldier fighting
simply to kill "niggers" should not
howl so much, he don't seem to know
his place. General Miles and Admiral
Schley might tell this young soldier
how to bear up under his troubles. I
will send him my advice: Now keep
out of bad company.

THE TILLMAN-MCLAURiN FIGHT
An Acconnt Written by . an. Eye fitness
TSo Man of Courage Would Uto
Done Otherwise Thn Tillman
Washington, D. C, Feb. 23. (Spe
cial Correspondence.) It has been
many a day since the senate witnessed
so melodramatic a situation as took
place in that august chamber this af
ternoon. The galleries were filled to
overflowing, everyone Just at the ten
sion point, when it arrived. The at
tendance on the floor was remarkable
for such a blustry day Jin fact, the
whole capitol seemed to ' expect that
there was something going to happen.
It did.
Perhaps the thing that drew the
crowd was the fact that notice was
given that Senator Benjamin R. Till
man, the senior senator from South
Carolina, would discuss- the Philip
pine tariff bill. He had spoken the
afternoon previous and gave notice
that he would finish his remarks on
Saturday. ' - . '
The large hands ; on the'enate clock
were rapidly making their way to
wards three, when an everit happened
that will go down into history to the
disgrace of the senate. One senator
had called another a "willful liar" and
that senator very properly' resented it.
Senator Tillman had charged that the
republicans had gotten the votes on
the peace treaty by improper motives,
and when questioned he named th
man at least one of them who had
succombed to a dose of patronage.
It is a well-known fact there has
not been in the senate for many a day
the equal of Tillman in the forum of
debate, and when Senator Spooner ha,!
essayed to question him, things fol
lowed their usual sequence by Spooner
getting "sat down" on. This riled
him, and when Tillman said that ho
knew that senators had spoken one
way and voted another way and that
there was one who professed to be a
democrat who had done it, Spooner
promptly challenged him to name the
man. In his reply he said that 'a
senator from South Carolina (Mc
Laurin) had said that he was going to
vote against the treaty, but had voted
for it, and since that time had charge
of the federal patronage of the state."
Spooner grabbed his hat and ran after
McLaurin, who was attending a meet
ing of the committee on Indian affairs.
During that time, Tillman had finished
his speech. McLaurin came into the
room with Spooner and waving a
paper, demanded recognition.
Turning to Tillman, he addressed
the senate, "that statement which the
senator from South Carolina has made
against me, I brand as a willful, delib
erate and malicious lie." Between
Tillman and McLaurin were two un
occupied chairs, and one in which was
seated Senator Teller of Colorado.
Tillman sprang over Teller and the
two chairs and in less time than it
takes to tell it, he had struck Mc
Laurin squarely on the forehead, with
such force that In several minutes a
welt about the size of a silver dollar
could be plainly seen from the gal
leries. McLaurin swung madly at
Tillman and drew the Jblood from Till
man's" nose and the .latter promptly
swung aeain and landed on McLaurinVs
chest. The affray was then stopped by
several senators and the assistant ser-geant-at-arms.
When all was over
the senate went into executive session,
and remained behind closed doors for
two hours and twenty minutes.
Finally the doors were opened and
after a lengthy argument, the sena
tors, who in the secret session had
been placed in contempt of the sen
ate, were allowed to publicly apoV)
eize. Tillman arose first and while
in no way taking back the statement
he had made against McLaurin. he said
that "two minutes after the blow was
struck he was sorry for it and begged
the pardon of the senate." McLaurin,
on the other hand, could not see why
he had been placed in the position of a
contemptor, and said that if he had
'committed wrong, he apojpsrized.
The two senators were placed in
contempt of the senate, which disbars
them from all of their privileges as
members save that of admission to the
floor of the senate. They may enter,
but cannot be recognized nor are they
allowed to vote except by the unani
mous consent of the body. The case
Trie .refprro fr ho frrHT',1 Iff PpT
port on the case will clear up the field.
Until the report is made, the charge
of contempt will remain against the
two senators.
The matter is now history, and com
ment can be made. What gentlemau
can condemn Tillman? To call one a
rralicious liar is surely a most provok
ing charge, in fact a challenge. What
southern gentleman or, in fact, any
man, who is really a man, would allow
another to call him a "liar" and be
willing to sneak out a resentment, by
the excuse that it ''happened In the
senate?" While it is to be regretted
that there should have been any such
a thing happen, I cannot but think that
Tillman did the right thing by smack
ing his traducer.
Tillman's tongue may be rough and
his gestures lack the "high art" of a
school "of Delsarte, but within his
breast beats a heart that revolts at
dishonesty. He is willing to fight the
battles of truth, with all the vigor that
he has. He has convinced republicans
as well as democrats that he is as in
corruptible as he is vigorous, as true
as he is eloquent. If the country had
more Tlllmans we would not be car
rying on a war of rapine and murder
in the Philippines nor would the huge
corporations and trusts hold such sway
in the houses, of congress.
During the course of his speech and
amongst many interruptions came one
from Senator Dietrich. (Let me in
passing remark that he must read The
Independent, for he was faultlessly
attired in a new business suit, with a
new cravat and spotless linen.) He
arose and said to Tillman: "General
Funston is not a bad man. When I
was in Manila last summer I attended
a ball at which General Funston was
present and all of the society ladies
danced with him." Tillman commented
upon "the childish interruption of the
senator from Nebraska, which had no
bearing on the issue." Poor Dietrich,
he is so anxious to say something that
he can't help getting into holes.
Before Tillman began his speech on
the Philippine tariff, Senator Bur
rows (rep.) read the Farewell Address
of George Washington. It must have
been a pretty uncomfortable thing to
have had to listen to such quotations
from the father of his country as "No
entangling alliances" and other con
demnations of the same policies that
the republican party is now carrying
out;
The president has given his final
ruling in the Schley case. It in every
particular agrees with that of the court
of inquiry and states that Sampson
was in command of the fleet during the
battle. It further states that it was
distinctly a "captains' fight" and the
only mistake made was made by Schley
in the "loop" by the Brooklyn. This
leaves no credit to Schley further than
as captain of the Brooklyn, and then
robs him of all the credit by stating
that he alone made a mistake. "A
captains' fight." Well, we might ask
that if that Is the fact, why did all the
prize money save a small amount
go to the "hero of pink teas" who way
"twenty miles away." If it was a
"captains' fight" there should have
been a more equal distribution of the
"pudding" and Sampson would have
gotten none. The report then refuses
to consider the previous conduct of
Schley, thus commending the policy
of the navy department and the bureau
of fabrication. In fact, the whole de
cision is so tributary to the navy de
partment that Secretary Long has tak
en it and justly so-r-as an approval of
the policies of the navy department
that he will resign. He has made th-.s
announcement that he will retiry
shortly, and gossip is to the effect that
his successor will be Governor Crane
of Massachusetts.
The anti-trust league has succeeded
partly in its fight against the attor
ney general. He has been ordered and
reluctantly brought suit against the
Northern Securities merger. This
created a flurry in Wall street, for it
was so entirely unexpected from Knox.
If the Northern Securities company is
illegal, so is the Standard Oil company,
the steel trust, the armour plate trust
and all of the other combinations in
restraint of trade. So Philander tio
lover of men will have a case to
fight against the trusts.
Among the bills passed by the sen
ate was the one providing for a per
manent census bureau. The senate
also ratified the treaty with Denmark
providing for the purchase of the Dan
ish West Indies for the sum of five
million dollars.
The house passed the war tax reduc
tion bill, and the Indian appropriation
bill. In this branch, several replies
were made to the speech of Wheeler
against the foreign policy of the gov
ernment, and he in turn eloquently
and ably defended himself.
The Crown Prince will arrive to
morrow and troops are being marsh
alled to escort him to the White house.
Washington will have a glimpse of
royalty for a few days. What a pi r.y
he didn't arrive in time to see the
Tillman-McLaurin bout.
