gives some idea how this legislature
will economize. Fifty thousand of that
la straight graft There Is no reason
.why the legislature should spend such
enormous amounts for themselves and
their retainers.
That the National City bank of New
.York is run by Rockefeller, Rogers and
Stillman without any regard to the
national banking law has long been
known by men familiar with Wall
street affairs. If any ordinary banker
would do the things that are done
every day in that bank, ne would cer
tainly land in the penitentiary. But
no federal pros 3euting ' attorney dare
bring a charge against the combination
to! wealth., Lately one of , their tran3-
was a criminal transaction and if the
law was enforced it would land thi3
crowd of big bugs in jail. There is
not even a suggestion made that the
law should be enforced. In a piratical
swindling schema the National City
bank lent the firm of Munroe & Munroe
$60,000 a day, day after day, without
any security at all. If any other bank
er would take $00,000 of Ilia depositors'
.money and give it out in that way he
'i4janyn a cell as soon as the fact
w as known. Not so with Roc:
Stillman and Rogers. They are su
perior to all law. And. there are men
who think that this government can
endure under;, such administration of
the law as that
In one of his: recent public state
ments, Tom Lawsoh" reiterates some
thing that has been said a great many
times in The Independent. The following-statement
will be recognized
immediately by any of the regular
readers of this paper f "The people of
this country have over $lli000,000,000
in the national and savings banks,
trust and insurance companies. There
13 but a Httle over $2,000,000,000 in
existence In this country. - The people
Imve a right to g.-t tneir $11,000,000,009
whenever they ask for it. It stands to
reason mat if tiny asked for it there
would be great disaster in this coun
try." The great lot of talk in some of the
papers about the legislature not voting
for Burkett for senator because he was
not, to be -relied upon as a fighter
against railroad domination, high

There never was a better opportunity for per
sons suffering trom diseases ci the heart, nerves,
liver, stomach and kidneys to test, lree, a re
markably successful Treatment for these dis
orders. Dr. Miles Is known to be an eminent
specialist rn these diseases and his liberal offer
ts certainly worthy of serious conslderaDon by
every afflicted reader. - This opportunity mav
never occnr again. -.'.
His system of Personal Treatment Is thor
u hly scientific and immensely superior to
other methods. It relieves the wont cases in a
dfiv or two and soon cures. It Is the final result
oi 25 years ot very extensive research and great
aucfess In treating these diseases.
Each treatment consists of a curative elixir,
tonic tablets, eliminating pills and usually a
plaster. Extensive statistics clearly demon
strate that Dr. Miles'. Personal Treatment is at
least three times as successful at the usual
treatment of physicians or general remedies
old at the stores.
Thousands of remarkable testimonials from
prominent people will be sent free. These show
Dr. Miles to be one ot the world's most success
ful physicians.
Col. E. B. SpUeman-, 9th United States Regu
lars, San Diego, Cal , says: "Dr. Mites' Special
Treatment worked wonders in my son's case
when all elBe failed. I had employed the best
medical talent and had spent $2,000 in doing so.
I believe he Is a wonderful specialist. I consider
It my duty to recommend him. For years I
had severe trouble with my stomach, head,
nenralgla, sinking spells and dropsy. Your
treatment entirely cured me."
M,c,1f,J1,IV Ohio, says:
,,lteri5 3rears of 111 healtb o months of Dr.
Miles' Treatment has cured me."
Mr. Cyrus Harper, ex-treasurer, Butler Co.,
Pa , reports: "Alter taking Personal Treatment
a Mion time I am a well man strain."
Mrs. F. W. Earl, Borneo, Mich., Hates: I
would not be alive today it it were not for your
Personal Treatment.
.As all afflicted readers may have bis Pook
opinion and $2.60 worth of Treatment especially
adapted to their case re, we would advise them
to send for it before ft is too late. Address. Dr.

The Independent did not even men
tion the matter. Every man who had
the slightest knowledge concerning
how the legislature was elected and
how Burkett. came to be endorsed for
senator only smiled at the discussion.
The facts were that one or two men
had a grievance against Burkett and
were permitted by the railroads to ex
ploit it, they deeming that, such exploi
tation would In some degree take off
the rawness of the proposition of elect
ing Burkett and at the same time pre
tending to back up the president in
demanding that the interstate com
merce commission should have power
to fix rates and stop discriminations.
Burkett ; will take his position in the
3SMere
railroadsenators a3 Elkins and Depew.
Something seems to be creating a
disturbance in tire democratic party in
Maryland. A large number of demo
crats met at Kinsington last week, de
nounced the last gt Louis convention,
re-endorsed the Chicago and Kansas
City platforms and then resolved that
tbey would form a new party and call
it the Jeff ersoniaa party so that here
after they could have a genuine demo
cratic party, the announcement of Its
name being a sure Indication of its
principles. -
The blistering sarcasm that has been
poured;, out on New York city, be
cause 50,000 school children go hungry
to school every morning in that city
of millionaires, has spurred some of
their subsidized organs to ' deny the
statement. 'That will not help the mat
ter in the least , The. hungry little
children are to be seen everywhere by
the occupants of the , $10,000 automo
biles :as they go dashing through the
streets, as well as by the school teach
ers tvho have made the reports.

The Smoot Mormon hearings have
been going 'on at Washington. The
only thing of interest was the ab30
lute refusal of several witnesses to re
veal the secrets . of the endowment
house where the oaths are administered
and the plural marriages are solemn
ized. ... -
All those persons who have been in
Washington, trying, to get congress to
"do something" toward stopping re
bates and regulating rate3 declare
most emphatically that the senate com
mittee is working to effectually 'block
all legislation along that line. The
last evidence given was to the effect
that the Steel trust is given a rate
33 1-3 per cent less on foreign ship
ments than independent companies.

The Atlanta Constitution says:
"Theodore Roosevelt may be the next
populist candidate for president." He
will have to wield that big stick a good
deal more, effectively than he has yet
before he gets the full measure of
populist confidence.
When the separate vote was taken
in the two houses of the Missouri leg
islature Neidringhaus had a majority
and everyone supposed that he was
elected,' but when the joint session
came, seven republicans bolted and at
this writing it looks as if he might be
defeated. There "Is a fierce fight be
tween Neidringhaus and Kerens, and
the Missouri legislature may go into a
fiacas such as the Nebraska legisla
ture 'indulged in two years ago. The
situation has all the signs of a long
contested fight for the spoil3.-

TEXAS FRUIT LANDS
Produce Early Crepf Which Bring Fancy Prices
In Texas they begin shipping berries
in April, tomatoes in May, peaches in
June, bringing fancy prices up north.
The growing season is much longer
than in the north a chance to make
two and three crops, reducing the ex
pense of "getting through" the winter.
' Fruit and truck lands along the Cot
ton Belt Route are very cheap as yet
$10 to $15 an acre unimproved. Whea
put to orchard or, truck they can be
made to yield $100 to $200 per acre

Besides, it's an ideal climate no

'Thm History of Nw Zealand"
New Zealand is the most interesting
corner of the civilized world today.
The Story of New Zealand presents
a remarkable record of advance in
democratic government and industrial
harmony. Industrial arbitration is of
the highest importance, and New Zea
land's success deserves earnest atten
tion. Whatever may be thought of any
specific measure adopted in New Zea
land, or its applicability to this coun
try, there can be no Question that the
story of New Zealand's progress con
tains much that is worthy the careful
consideration of our people.
The Independent is prepared to fur
nish this valuable history to its read-
