terriso:. Press-Journal O. A. PHIFPs, Publisher. HARRISON, NEBRASKA The annual exportation of Bowers torn the Riviera tow amounts to 13, 100,000 In value. Significant, is it not, that a police nan or a reporter, who wants to find tnarchistd always looks for them In a ioon? The demon aiconoi and rb tend of anarchy are natural boot com Ktnions. A Boston capitalist, who has reeent y completed a tour of the Siberian jold fields, says that the country is a iecond California. The mines in the -Jerfchinsky district, be says, are, per iapt, the richest in the world, but are forked in the most primitive way. A building in a Georgia settlement lisplays this unique sign: "School of .earning. Lessons given in poetry writing and noveltry. Also, will teach nusic to you, and dramatics. Hides ind wool taken for cash. Also, as the Pinter season is coming on, oak wood ind kindling." Cjund fleas and mosquitoes are aiamed for the epidemic of malaria shich has broken out on Second ave aue, New York, along the line of ex :avatlon by the Manhattan elevated fail way company. "Unless action is aken," said Dr. Stewart, "the epidemic yill become the worst seen in this city in many a day." This season's sea-serpent story :akes the form of a sea of snakes. A ship just arrived in Philadelphia re ports a belt of snakes fifteen miles wide in the Indian ocean. The snakes, iveraging three feet in length, were f an unknown species and are sup posed to have been brought to the sur tace by a volcanic disturbance. .

Mar tin to Captain William A. Neville for $1,500,000. The mines have been in litigation for ten years, each partner striving to gain control. When Neville was manager of the Rawhide mine it paid 12,000,000 in dividends, but since then it has paid nothing. Under Ne ville both mines will be made good producers. Three hundred young women of Chicago who are all to become public school teachers, were recently pro nounced physically perfect, including nerves and eyesight Never before has so large a proportion of the num ber to be examined passed the re quired tests. At the New York Nor mal school inquiries recently elicited the fact that nineteen-twentieths of the girl pupils were taller than their mothers. The heroines of the English novels of a century ago were as weak physically as they were mentally. The modern girl Is wholesome and strong In body and in mind. Talk of "sympathetic strikes" re minds Grand Chief Arthur, of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, of one that he conducted when only a boy working on a farm. "The force of hands had dwindled to two, a fellow named Joe and me. The farmer decid ed to discbarge the other fellow, whereupon Joe suggested that I should (top work also, leaving the farmer in a fix. This I did. ' I went out on a sympathetic strike: hut th result that the farmer hired Joe back again, and I was left out in the cold." It would not be safe to generalize too broadly on his unhappy experience. If It carries any moral with it, we need Qot point it out. A young lady of small stature re :ently fainted at a dinner given in her lonor. It was then found that she had lot been able to touch either her feet the floor or her ack to the chair; ind the restricted circulation and prolonged discomfort had finally over iome ber. An antiquarian traces the resent mania for high seats to the '.act that at the old French court seta " f handsome furniture were ranged ilong the walls for effect, but never ccupied. The chairs and sofas actually iced were much lower. Furniture Bakers of today copy the more showy ipring cushions. The dictum of a fa llout cabinet maker is that in choos ng chain the knee of a person standing Aoold oome clear above the seat be ntenda to occupy.

The Iniquitous Protective Tariff Ii Working- Kola to th Industries of 'ihe Empire The Kind of Industrial Despotism That This Country May Yet tUperlsM. A recent report from our consul-general to the German Empire shows that high tariff and the formation of syndi cates or trusts have placed that em pire on the verge of disaster. Com menting on this the Nebraska Inde pendent says: As this country is the land of trusts, so Germany is the country ol syndicates. There is scarce ly a ramification of trade, the mem--trs of which have not combined for tae regulation and control of prices, and even the quantity of output has been regulated by them. Protected by tariff the syndicates have been enabled to inflate their prices to that limit which Just renders foreign Importation and competition Impossible. Another means of preventing foreign competi tion Is that the syndicates refuse to supply any customers who purchase similar articles from foreign manufac turers. The retailer must obtain all his goods from the home manufacturer or be boycotted. The result of this industrial despotism is that the re tailer is considerably limited in the choice of his source of supply while the foreign competitor fines no market for his goods. Another serious phase of the situa tion is that the home retailer discov ered that while he was paying tremen dosu prices for his goods the same articles were being placed upon the foreign markets at a ridiculously low figure, which absolutely precluded the manufacturer from reaping any profit. In short, the retaKer r.ot only pay ing dearly for his goods, but he was also paying for the loss that the manu facturers were incurring in the foreign markets. Such a condition of affairs could have but one outcome. The inevitable result has pnsueil. The manufacturers, secure from foreign competition by the protective tariffs, have increased their prices to such an extent that now they have attained an unenviable and ab solutely untenable position. The re tailer refuses to pay the exorbitant Hitu vus , vwu.t uiai in vj im- mand has considerably decreased. The commercial dtpraision, which at first was considered to be only temporary In character has now deveU ped into a matter of grave importance. In the early part of 1900 it was impossible to obtain sufficient labor to cope with the orders in hand. Now it is difficult to find adequate work for the laborers. Some Industries, such as coal mining, are still fully occupied, but others, such as the iron trade, are experiencing serious times. Is not this a counterpart of what may be expected to happen in this country? AWFCL CORRIPTIOJJ. In nearly every state there is some corruption of the body politic, but it is a matter of congratulation to Populists that they can point with pride to how little there is in the states controlled by their party. On the other hand, there Is hardly a single Republican state that has not had a scandal con nected with the meeting of the legisla tures. In some states so notorious is the corruption that as in Pennsylvania even Republican newspapers are com pelled to denounce it. The utter de pravity of the Republican machine can be seen when the Pittsburg Post says, "'No better illustration is available as an object lesson than the bribery and corruption which ran riot in the last legislature of Pennsylvania, It was something awful in its extent and its audacity. Every part of the Btate has become familiar with the purchase of votes of legislators, the prices paid and the Influential character of the men In business and social life who did the buying. That is the worst of it The bidders for votes, with their pockets crammed with bribe money which they lavishly disbursed, are of the class who should be expected to set a good ex ample and maintain a high standard of public morality. Instead of doing that tbey do the reverse. They make the most Infamous crime fashionable, and a matter for jocular remarks, rather than the most bitter denunciation pos sible, followed by criminal prosecution and severe punishment Between one and two millions of dollars of bribe money was disbursed at Harrlsburg last winter and spring by men of prom inence who would consider themselves harshly and unjustly assailed if set down as anarchists. But are they not anarchists? The anarchists would de stroy all government, but what differ ence Is there between that and cor rupting government and making It a reproach and a shame? Republics can be destroyed without the shedding of blood by the power of bribery and cor ruption. "It Is no snrprlse to learn that the monstrous example of the carnival of bribery at Harrlsburg last winter has established itself In cities and bor oughs of the state, snd that the price of votes has almost as quotable an article as the price of pork, flour or whisky. "We hear remarkable stories of the bribery of councilman In Pitts twrg and Allegheny snd in some of fkt smaller cities snd even la the bor oughs of the rural districts. If legisla tors accept bribes for the discharge of taelr public duties. It Is no surprise that the local legislative bodies should do so. Sometimes matters have reach ed such a pass tbst tbey are bribed to ta right as well as to do wrong Tbey have no conscience in the matter, aad the ironclad constitutional oath haa nc more effect than go much waste paper. This fearful crime is Increasing, If thi briberies that are talked of privately could be made public with incontro vertible testimony of the crime, such ai exists, a revolution would be created The bribed rascals who sell their votel are bad enough and should b drummed out of public life and into th seclusion of the penitentiary. But an they the worst of criminals? Is nol the crime of offering bribes by men o'. stsndixg in business in the professions and In politics infinitely worst? Th people of all parties should arous themselves to this great peril to out institutions and to the cause of public morality. It is anarchy in its mosi odious and demoralizing character. Tht bribed ones are anarchists and tht bribers more so, as instructors snc tempters on the same highway to per diUoa. OCR POLITICAL DICTATORS, That Wall street is the master and dictator of this country has been evi dent to all American citizens who havt ttdied the matter and noticed the trend of events. Yet it is seldom that the financiers openly boast of the power they wield, but Russell Sage that eminent authority on the men and measure of Wall street says: "I have talked with practically all of the representative financial men of this community, and ail agree In their determination' to uphold President Roosevelt We feel it ia our duty to stand by hira to show our faith in his ability to successfully carry on our nation;J government" Now, that is very kind and consid erate of Sage and the financial men, but what would have happened if they had decided not to uphold the president. Are we to understand that Wall street will decide for itself if it will support the constitutional head of the government or not Undoubt edly under the pnsent financial sys tem Wall street couid' precipitate a panic as it did la the Cleveland admin istration. The banks all over the country would at a word from Wall street stop loaning money, and call in the loans and universal trouble would occur and the wheels of busi ness in a great measure be suspended. This is a vast power, and Wall street, according to Russell Sage and the representative financial men, is prepared to tisa it when occasion arispS; Mctny of them oneiilw threaten ed to do so, If Mr. Bryan was elected, but it is hardly likely they would have carried out their threats, better counsels would perhaps have prevail ed. There is a covert hint or even threat in the Sage interview that Wall street is willing to give President Roosevelt a trial, that they are not altogether satisfied with him and that it will be well for him to follow In the grooves that the financial machine Is now running in. Wall street has a great deal too much power for the welfare of the people. AX AStTI-TRIST TLAN." Ex-Senator Chandler has solved s plan of action for the Republicans and amongst the things that he says must be done Is to "deal wisely with prob lems connected with the perpetual strife between capital and labor. Sup press the huge corporations, which are made so huge, not to promote economy of production, but to create monoplles, which will keep up the prices of com modities and keep down the wages of labor. I he Kepubllean party must do this." And tbc-n in reply to the question, "Can these things be accomplished?" he says: "The repeal of the charters ol fourteen hundred million dollar corpor ations would have been achieved undei Mr. McKInley. It will be no less ac complished under Mr. Roosevelt. His conservatism will certainly not lead him to do less for the interests of the workingroan of the country than Mr. McKinicy would have done." It is possible Mr. Chandler may have discovered some plan by which the ad ministration may repeal the charters of the giant trusts, but as these char ters are granted by the states it is not clear how the Federal government can repe-al them. Those trusts that do ao lnter-state business can be controlled by Congress, but even Congress cannot disfranchise a trust or any other cor poration that Is doing a state business There is also great doubt if the Roose velt administration will not be at powerless to control the trusts as the late administration was. The Repub lican party Is under too msny obliga tions to the trusts and its leaders arc too much Interested In some of them to be likely to even attempt to hurt their own friends, Mr. Chandler to the contrary notwithstanding. Coaling the ships of war at Santiago was as serious a matter as it Is to the ordinary hous?holder,now tbey have to pay tribute to the coal trust, though the trust had not such a cinch on the government as it has on the coal con sumer now, but If we get Into another war the government will have to pay full tribute to the trust like the bal ance of us. The news comes from London that t new treaty with Oreat Britain Is read) for presentation, which Is the same a the old treaty with the matter omlttec objected to by the senate. It Is to b hoped that truckling to England wll) not be the policy of the administration but with John Hay still In the cabinel It Is doubtful. General Grant ws a great man aad noted for bis silence; hit eon, Fred, U bawllag to the r.po.ters every chance ha gata. IMPERIAL POLICIES. WILL BE BEFORE CONGRESS AT COM ING SESSION. The Indications Are That the Republi cans Will Unite on a Flan to Hold the Islands as a Colony with Limited Independence to the Filipinos. The future treatment of the Philip pines will be for Congress to settle uexl wiulvr, auu there ia hardly a doubt that great difference of opinion on what the permanent policy shall be will make the question of imperialism again uppermost in the minds of the people of the United States. A large party of Congressmen of both parties have been visiting and inspecting the islands aad their report of the condi tions there will largely influence others in deciding on the course to bd pur sued. Commenting on this the Wash ington Times says: A curious item of news reaches us from the Philippines, In the Camarines province, a banquet has Just been held which was attended by several if not all of the American senators and representatives now visit ing the islands. Speaking at thin ban quet Senator Bacon and Representa tives Gaines of Teanessee and Green of Pennsylvania are reported as having stated that "as soon as the war was finished the United States would ex tend to the Philippines freedom as it was known in America." The Repub lican members of the delegation pres ent are said to have refrained from speaking. The inference is that there was probably some difference of opin ion between the Republicans and Dem ocrats concerning the matter referred to, or at least, that the Republicans did not feel at liberty to make any promises. It is quite probable that the idea Intended to be conveyed was that the Islands would be treated as an Integ ral part of the American Republic, with all the safeguards of constitutional government thrown around them. Up on what basis these gentlemen felt that they could give even such an assurance It Is difficult to comprehend, unless it bs that they had in mind a modifica tion of pulley to feuuit ffuiii a cliuugi? of the political complexion of the American government. It is rather early to figure upon that, though, for at the soonest such a change must be nearly four years off. Besides, the report Is that according to these gentlemen the Philippines are to have American freedom as (soon aa the war is finished. We must conclude, therefore, that they were cither speak ing in very optimistic vein, or that tht-ir statements were accompanied by Qualifications that were omitted from the news report. However, the American public will be truly glad when the war Is finished, and the number of people in this coun try is by no means inconsiderable who believe that nothing would have con tributed more to finish it long ago than an official announcement that full Am erican freedom would be extended tq the islands. LABOR'S I.KHHON A HARD ONE. The voice of labor Is losing Its in fluence with the Republicans; the cam paigns of 1896 and 1900 showed that the persuasive and alluring powers of Hanna were more cogent than the fear of the trusts, Chinese immigra tion and other matters that the labor platforms denounced. For this reason It is doubtful if the extension of the Chinese exclusion law will bs passed by Congress. Labor Is calling for their exclusion, but 'the best business in terests," including the railroads, want the Chinese admitted. The more cheap labor, the greater their profits. Chinese labor is not only cheap, but it is docile. It does not strike, but is satisfied with almost any conditions if the dollar a day is only promptly paid. When labor aided In defeating the Democratic party at the last national eiection, they hung a Btone about their own necks that makes it impossible for the Democratic party to save them at this juncture. They aided In giv ing the Republicans both houses of Congress and the hands of the Demo cratic are tied for the time being. Labor, with many other people that also sided the Republicans are learn ing a hard lesson that will cost them dearly for the mess of pottage that was promised them. There are two ways In which they can now help themselves. By bring ing all the pressure possible to bear on Republican members of Congress who represent close districts, they may force them through fear of being de feated to vote with the Democrats for the Chinese exclusion bill and on other matters in whlcii they are Inter ested, If this fails of success, by elect ing a majority of Democrats to Con gress next year, they will lay the gwundwork for a complete victory ol the party of the people at the next na tional election. OtR TROUBLE Iff PIHLlrPIKES. There is no doubt that the civil gov ernment set up In the Philippines Is for all practical purposes a failure. Governor Taft has probably done ev erything possible to make It a success, but the conditions are unfavorable for lha dual government that has been set op. The promises made to the Filipino leaders to Induce them to surrender can In many Instances not be carried out, and the great increase of taxa tion Is causing great dissatisfaction. The orders from the home government to end the war at any cost aad to promise a civil government to the Fili pinos, In which tbey should participate as far as home rule was concerned, has been feusf Impossible la many of tka provinces for lack of friendly natives and in other districts where army offi cers have been appointed to civ!! office, the leaders amongst the natives are dissatisfied bees use no home rule pre vails, In reality It only being a thin veneer for a military government in which the Filipino has no parcel or lot The massacre in Famar and the I'stsmect that conditions in other parts of the Philippines are not reas suring will open the eyes of the Amer ican people to the task they have un dertaken and the enormous sari flees of blood and treasure they must make to carry out the imperial policy. An expensive and cumbersome attempt at civil government, which Is in reality a satrapy under the protection of the military, with about all the civil ser vants imported In fact, a copy of the government of India by the English cannot be expected to bring peace and satisfaction to the Filipino, nor gratifi cation to the people of the United States who are furnishing their sons for slaughter and the millions of money to pay the bills. The time has come for either giving the military full power and recalling the civil servants until such time as peace has been well assured by the strong hand of the soldier, or granting to the Filipinos a government of their own under the control and guidance of the United States as we have given to our new territory of Hawaii. The imperial policy must be a gov ernment of force or it la a failure. REK SPEKCII AND I REE PRKSS. In all this furore to pass repressive statutes against anarchy and anarch ists it is well for our statesmen to re member that great mistake of the Fed eralists, the "Allen and Sedition laws." To suppress anarchy is one thing, to suppress free speech and revive No nothingism Is another. Is history to repeat itself? Free speech and a free press arc the essentials of liberty; they cannot be abridged without a return to the times of monarchies and kings, which would be to us a return to the dark ages. The Chicago Public commenting on this wisely says: Should the unpatri otic effort now making to destroy this inheritance succeed, should conspiracy against the person of the president be made treason and the right of free speech be abolished, it will be for no other reason than the ignorance of the masses of the people. Not Ignorance , . 'Tv , ' of the things that would give the right to vote under educational teats, not ignorance even of history in respect to its incidents. Not ignorance of those kinds. But an ignorance far more dangerous to the commonwealth, aji Ignorance which the learned share with the Illiterate ignorance of the lessons which the history of Anglo Saxon struggles for liberty teach. This kind of history is not taught In our schools. If St were, free speech, free press, free assembly, and security from prosecution for constructive treason would be as dear to the hearts of the people now as they were to those who fought for our independence, who framed our constitution, and who in overwhelming numbers overrode those earliest attempts at anti-anarchist leg islation which holds an Infamous place in our political history under the name of the alien and sedition laws. NO CONCESSION TO CtllA. The beet sugar trust and the tobacco interest have already commenced their war against any concession to Cuba through their trust-controlled Con gressman, Hepburn of Iowa has set himself squarely against tariff con cessions to Cuba, says the Chicago Record-Herald. He speaks primarily for the beet sugar interest, but having r-ommltted himself on that ground ap peals to the tobacco interests for sym pathy. Neither of these interests cares anything about the other, but each dreads the competition of a great Cuban export and we find them now in a very natural combination. There is, however, no way in which we could help Cuba so much as by a reduction of the sugar and tobacco du ties, and if the people who agree with Mr, Hepburn carry out their policies unimpeded the country will be In a very bad dilemma morally. It has re fused Cuba complete liberty, and It has shown a disposition not to grant annexation, which would result in free trade. It prefers to keep a hold on the Island, which puts It completely at Its mercy. Meantime it has been making loud professions of humanitarian ism to wards Cuba, snd has emphasized their bollowness by a striking contrast be tween Its treatment of that country and Hawaii. Hawaii, which has a much smaller proportion of whites to its population than Cuba and a much larger proportion of Chinese and Jap anese coolies is admitted to the full rights of an American territory and given a free market for its sugar. The Court of Appeals of the State ol New York has handed down a decision sustaining the constitutionality of the anti-trust law of that state. The rase decided was the American Ice trust case, which was Instituted when the ice trust arbitrarily fixed the price ol lee at 60 cents per 100 pounds, and yet the trust organs persist in saying thai no laws can be constitutionally enacted to reach the trust. That Infant, the steel trust, whose Industry Is protected by the tariff from competition, managed to wring from the American people the comfortable sum of $if5i.871 during the past all months, or about one hundred and ten mlllioa for the year. This is the first all months of Its history. Iter Verve ed Sral Lives. A year ag'J the husband of Mrs. Mary Hin b, a New York woman, met with an injury that prevented him from attending to his work and also made him subject to epileptic 0U. Mrs. Hirsch is an expert needlewo man, and has been able to keep the family together, in spite of the fact that her husband had taken to drink. The other morning after a hard night's drinking, he arose from the breakfast table, drew a revolver from his pocket and said: "I am going to kill you all." There was Insanity in his look, but Mrs. Hirsch remained perfectly cool. "Where did you get that pmfoi?'r she asked, pleasantly, as the madman came toward her. lie did not answer, but leveled the weapon at ber bead. The woman never flinched, but said In ever tones: "Now, Henry, If you go that they will lock you up, and then you won't be able to get. a drink at all." The maniac had been prepar ed for resistance, for terrified cries, for fight for anything but this. It confused him and he muttered, "That's so," as he put away the weapon and left the house. Half an hour later he was on his way to the insane depart ment at Bellevue hospital. Mrs. Hirsch was terribly shaken by the ex perience, but soon recovered. THE CHAMPION WING SHOT. Capt. Bogarrias Has a Dangerous Experi ence but Conies Out I'uhurt. Ferris Wheel Park, Chicago, Nov. 4th. Capt. A. II. Bogardus, the cham pion wing shot of the world, has spent the summer here. His shooting school has been one of the features of the Park during the season. He has giv en many exhibitions and his skill with the rifle Is superb. The Captain tells of a very close call he onci had when liv'ng at Elk hart III. He had bsen a sufferer from Kidney disease for several years and it rapidly developed Into Bright's Dis ease. All his friends told him that this was incurable and that he would never get better. To say that he was alarmed Is to put it very mildly. This plucky man. had faced many dangers and it made him sick at heart to think that at last he was to be conquered by such a cruel foe. At last he heard of a medicine that had cured many such cases Dodd's completely restored to good health. He says: "I attribute my present good health to Dodd's Kidney Pills and to nothing elfse."
