CIVILIZATIONS SAVAGERY
Horrible Torture in Paat Ascs In
flictcd by Man Upon Man
During the middle ages and indeed
down into the last century torture was
egularly resorted to for a variety of
causes chief among them being relig
ion In the early part of the seventeenth
century we read of a man named Zach
cry Drusenian being suspended by the
arms in a torture chamber while
screws were applied to his feet in such
a manner as to crush the bones After
watching him for a while the judges
went out to supper- leaving him in
charge of the executioner Drusemac
besought the latter -by the wounds oi
Clirist to let him down if but for a
single moment but the officer refused
to do so except at the judges com
mand After an Lour the judges re
turned all of them the worse for liquor
Drusenaan was dead Little Imagina
tion is needed to make one shudder at
this story Satan himself might hesi
tate to All up the gaps of the narrative
During the struggle between Spain
And the United Netherlands torture
was employed by both parties indiffer
ently and became very violent The
Dutchmen once tied a number of pris
oners together in pairs and confined
them in a large room No food was
given them and in the course of a few
days they were mad with hunger At
length they began to devour each other
They were kept in that room until the
man was dead Terrible as was the
Spanish inquisition this affair goes far
to even matters between them and the
Netherlands Another device of the lat
ter was to strip their victim and drag
him backwards and forwards on a rope
stretched taut until he was sawn asun

GREAT CORRUPTION FUND
It Is certain that a sum of money wUl
be spent by the Republican party man
agers In this campaign which Is to
close on the 3d of November the equal
of which has never before been Iruiig
lned in political struggles and surely
never In any degree attempted It may
be affirmed with confidence that if the
mere expenditure of money will carry
a presidential election in these United
States it will be done in tte preseut
year
It would be perfectly hopeless for tVe
Democratic regular organization to at
tempt to compete in the raising and ex
pending of these enormous amounts
The whole money dealing speculating
stock jobbing and franchise grab bin
world has contributed The common
peril and apprehension that justice will
be done in case of Bryans election and
that the thousand sources of corruption
will be stopped has aroused what
might well be called the dangerous
classes and excited their liberal con
tributions
A Republican daily paper gives a lit
tle idea of how the fund of the Repub
lican party is swelled in the city of
Philadelphia alone According to this
authority the Philadelphia Savings
Fund Institution has paid over 25000
of its depositors moneys held in trust
to Boss Hannas treasury Each other

den guardianship over the welfare and

The McKinley Piljjrrimnses
It is stated that the visits of work
Ingmen to Canton O to be received
by Major McKinley and to assist in
offering him the incense of their ad
miration have up to date cost a sum
exceeding five hundred thousand dol
lars The way it is managed is inter
esting to relate
In some large factory announcement
is made that on such a day a special
train will leave that place for Canton
to visit the Republican Presidential
candidate and all voters who desire
to accompany the expedition are in
vited to hand in their names Then
a meeting is held and each workman
willing to go is charged half a dollar
for expenses so that it could not be
said he was absolutely carried free
and it is announced that the day off
will be a holiday without deduction
of wages That sweeps in most of the
men and away go the whole crowd

bank in Philadelphia has been assess
ed 10000 and very few it is stated
have failed to make full payment Al
together it is reported the McKinley
money chest in that State is full to re
pletion with probably a large overflow
to influence other States
In Pittsburg the same authority
states the contributions at 70000
raised in one week from the moneyed
Institutions Every railroad has been
put under tribute All the gigantic
trusts combinations and syndicates
have been assessed and have respond
ed The State of Pennsylvania has fur
nished or will furnish to the Hanna
bossed partj at least one million of dol

The danger is that the presidency
imiy be not fairly voted but foully
bought with money But we believe
that our people will resist temptation
and repudiate unworthy inducements
We can triumph in spite of this shame

McKinley Pakery
The two Fakes most in use by Mc
Kinleyites in their campaign of edu
cation which is really a campaign of
misinformation and sophistry are the
fifty cent dollar and the deposits in
savings banks
No Hannaite orator or newspaper has
yet explained how a coin with value
marked on it by our governmental im
press can ever pass in this country for
less than such value nor has even the
astute Carlisle yet explained how a sav
ings bank can swindle a depositor by
paying him through a Treasury or a
national bank note or a silver certific
ate or duly stamped silver coin the
precise number of statutory cents
which he desires to withdraw
Recently a Boston new bureau con
trolled by gold fanatics sent out for
publication in the McKinley press a
statement that since the Chicago nomi
nation deposits to the aggregated
amount of six millions of dollars had
been drawn out of savings banks in
the Union and put on deposit with sav
ings banks in Toronto Canada the
conclusion being emphasized by the
McKinley press that such original
home deposits were transferred to ex
clusively gold paying English banks
for safety
The story of course is a roorback
fake intended for campaign circula
tion among voters who use savings
banks It 5s preposterous on its face
lor six millions of dollars would repre
sent the deposits of from twenty to
thirty millions of people willing to buy
exchange on Canada and perhaps to
lose accruing interest by the change
And so proceeds the current Hanna
ite campaign of scare encouraged by
New York goldbug papers prints day
after day and by which it expects to
elect McKinley by a grand majority
Sanguine Republicans who read of
excursion after excursion calling on
McKinley are greatly encouraged
thereby but shrewd and experienced
ones suspect that the men are likely
to accept the rides offered them and
do as they choose as to voting for the
Canton man in November
Mr Hanna in Journalism
As the financial manager of a politi
cal canvass Mr Mark Hanna is an im
posing sight but as managing editor he
has not as yet exhibited the smallest
ability The gold standard press of
the East is being conducted with a stu
pidity that amazes and necessity must
soon compel a change in the plan of
campaign if the fight is not to be given
up Bawling cannot be sustained at
concert pitch with good results for
months at a stretch and so far Mr
Hannas newspapers have given their
whole strength to bawling Unmistak
able hoarseness has ensued as a matter
of course Everybody who can read
has been long aware that the single
standard press wishes it to be under
stood that any man who offers an argu
ment in favor of bimetallism is a fool
a lunatic a repudiator a rogue and a
foe of the national honor of which
Mr Hanna and the contributing trusts
and syndicates are for this occasion
only the special guardians If the
gold standard press has anything else
to say on the subject of finance the
time has certainly arrived when it
should utter itself with some effort at
coherency San Francisco Examiner

Takea the People for Fools
Secretary Carlisle is out in another
long letter This time it is in answer
to a question he says was asked him
Why does the silver dollar remain on
a par with a gold dollar when it is not
exchangeable into the gold dollar
The Secretary makes a lengthy re
ply which may be summed up in the
words beating about the bush The
only direct answer he gives is Tho
public has been satisfied that so long
as our present monetary system is pre
served the government will do what
ever its moral obligations and express
declarations require it to do and verj
largely in consequence of this confi
dence in the good faith of the executive
authorities the silver coins have no
depreciated in value
That is a childish answer and betrayr
cither grave ignorance incapacity 01
downright intent to deceive To say
that it is largely due to public confi
dence in the executive officers that is
in Cleveland Carlisle Co is an io
suit to the good sense of the genera
rublic Because that confidence is so de
cidedly wanting that the question it
often enough mooted that both these
officers deserve impeachment for direc
infringement of the law on this verj
issue
The only reason why silver is on s
Ijir with gold is that it is a legal tender
But Mr Carlisle evidently does no
think it altogether accords with the
gold bug policy to say that for tha
would be an admission that fiat makes
money so he attributes it all to confi
dence in Secretary Carlisle Evident
ly he takes the public for fools as dc
most other gold bugs Philadelphis
