Opinions From Various Sources on Questions of the
Day.
Dear brethren of the “God and
morality party,” when you lick a rev-
enue stamp for a bank check, tele-
gram, etc., etc., don’t forget to do it
enthusiastically, as you are helping to
pay the salary of the sultan of Sulu
and keep up the establishment of his
harem. The taste of the paste on the
stamp may not be very delectable, but
the McKinley administration has raised
“old Glory” over the harem and slave
pens of Sulu, and “where the flag has
once been raised, who will dare pull it
down?’—Westmoreland Democrat.
Ahab and Jezebel killed Naboth and
took his vineyard. England can kill
Kruger and annex the Transvaal. The
United States can capture and shoot
Aguinaldo and his followers, and hold
the Philippines as a subject colony.
But will the Supreme Ruler of the
universe approve of the Killing of
Kruger and Aguinaldo? Or will He
visit the same judgment on modern
oppressors as He did on Ahab and Jez-
ebel? It is not a question of power,
but of right. The wealth of the Philip-
pines and the Transvaal, and how
much this country and Great Britain
can profit by taking these countries
should not be considered. Ill gotten
gains are always a curse.—Meadville
Democrat.
We have opposed the forcible annex-
ation of the Philippines on two purely
material grounds—that we believe it to
be bad business and bad politics. Eth-
ical grounds cut little figure in the last
decade of the Nineteenth century. We
have considered it bad business be-
cause it wiil cost many millions to re-
construct the islands. The cost of the
little war there will be but a bagatelle
compared to the cost of the task which
follows the war. We have considered
it bad bolitics because we firmly be-
lieve that it will endanger the success
of the Republican party in the year
1900. The labor vote is lining up
against the Republican party. The
trades unions are declaring against
expansion.—San Francisco Argonaut
(Rep).
In his message President McKinley
said hé had “every reason to believe”
that the cession of the Philippines to
the United States was in accordance
with the wishes and aspirations of the
great mass of the Filipino people. But
what reasons had Mr. McKinley for be-
lieving this? He specifies none. And
certainly the burden of proof is upon
him, for the only expression of the
Filipino people so far came through
the envoys of the Filipino republic, and
those expressions were hostile to the
cession. The envoys did all in their
power to bring them to Mr. McKinley's
attention, but without success. How
can he say that he had “every” reason
to believe that the Filipino people ap-
proved the cession, when he refused to
listen to the only expression of senti-
ment that any of the Filipino people
in an organized capacity ever attempt-
ed to make?—Chicago Public.
“Pity ‘tis, ’tis true,” that expansion
of American territory means expansion
of the rum power. With the blessings
of the nation’s flag goes the curse of
the legalized drink traffic. In the year
1898 this country exported to Cuba
malt and other liquors to the value of
$10,796. During the first five months
of 1899 we—that is, everybody who is
responsible, actively or passively, for
the government’s liquor policy—sent to
Cuba liquor to the value of $472,272. In
1898 the value of liquors sent from the
United States to Porto Rico was $3,668.
In the first five months of 1899 it was
$191,422. In 1898 we shipped $337
worth of liquor to the Philippines; in
the first five months of 1899 we sent
$86,833 worth! When it is remember-
ed what the use of alcoholic drinks
means to the people of tropical lands,
it would seem as if the ‘benevolent’
policy of the United States toward its
new possessions were to kill off the
natives as soon as possible.—Union Sig-
nal.
Samuel Salter and the other men
employed by the machine to stuff the
ballot box in the Thirteenth division
of the Seventh ward are still in hiding
and hunted. Well laid plans for flight,
complaisant bondsmen and well spent
machine money have combined to
make easy their disappearance. Un-
doubtly the way of these transgressors
is hard; yet the path is not so rough
as might be. They are not friendless.
these faithful adherents of the ma-
chine. Condemned as they are by
every decent citizen, they still retain
the favor, unwilling but profitable, of
the men they served. Few citizens who
know politics are so guileless as to be-
lieve that these clumsy makers of ma-
jorities have entered upon their trav-
els, pursued by warrants, with purses
empty and futures unprovided for.
Their knowledge is power, and their
employers know it. Had any of them
—~Salter, for instance—chosen to tell
all he knew of the ward elections, va-
rious forms that now obtrude upon the
public gaze in high places would come
hurling earthward. Immunity from
such a fate must prove expensive. Men
like Salter do not leave their homes,
their families and their positions--his
was ‘worth $3,600 a year—and enter
upon what may be a lifetime of exile,
without excellent assurance that they
will be taken care of. Pondering upon
these things brings one to the conclu-
sion that there has been heavy draft
upon the machine exchequer within re-
cent days.—Philada. North American.
The national convention called to
meet at Chicago Feb. 12, to consider
measures to curb the alarming en-
croachments of the trust power should
be largely attended. The call is signed
by about 600 men from all sections of
the country, representing all occupa-
tions and all parties. The dangers of
trusts have been pointed out for some
time by far seeing men, but not until
recently have the evil effects of these
enormous aggregations of capital and
watered stock become so widespread as
to attract general attention and cause
general alarm.
Anti-Trust Conuention.
Call For Conference to Be Held at Chicago Feb. 12.
To the American People:
‘We believe the criminal conspiracies
in restraint of trade commonly known
as trusts, which so alarmingly char-
acterize the present times, are a men-
ace to liberty. They close the doors of
business opportunity to all but the*rich
and powerful. They impoverish the
producer and consumer. They degrade
labor. They have seized upon the ave-
nues of transportation and poisoned
the fountains of public information.
They debauch the elective franchise.
They are public enemies. Unless they
are overthrown there will be establish-
ed in free America a monied oligarchy
on the one hand and a serfdom of the
masses of the people on the other.
They must be destroyed or free gov-
ernment is lost. The only power ca-
pable of successfully combatting the
tyranny of these gigantic capitalistic
monopolies is the aroused and organ-
ized hosts of the people to whom the
government and the country rightfully
belong and in whom all power of right
inheres.
Our republic was born of the love of
liberty which in 1776 impelled the
fathers to rebel against the tyranny of
the English monarch and the special
privileges of the British aristocracy,
and which inspired them to pledge to
the cause of human freedom their
lives, their fortunes and their sacred
honor.
The same love of liberty destroyed
the aristocratic institution of slavery,
a power once fortified in the courts
and entrenched in the constitution.
That same spirit now will suffice to
overthrow the new slavery and ty-
ranny of the trusts.
In order to restore the equal rights
of the people and deliver them from
the criminal despoliation of these
monopolistic combinations it is im-
perative that the special privileges
which created and foster them be up-
rooted and forever destroyed.
This herculean task can only be ac-*
complished by the organization of the
lovers of freedom in every part of the
republic and through the persistent
and determined efforts of a united
people.
To this end a national anti-trust con-
ference is hereby called to meet in the
city of Chicago on the birthday of
Abraham Lincoln, Feb. 12, 1900.
Patriotic citizens from all states and
territories duly accredited and in full
sympathy with the objects above
named, and representatives of known
anti-trust organizations, are invited
to meet together in said conference.
Applications for admission to said
conference should be made to the sec-
retary, Unity building, Chicago, at an
early date, as credentials of delegates
must be countersigned by the chair-
man of the executive committee.

Railway Pensions.
Pennsylvania Railroad the First Corporation to
Adopt the System.
What to do with the old people,
those who have worn themselves out
in the race of life, is the problem in
every country on the globe. Some of
the uncivilized races,not having a very
high conception of life at the best,
put their old men to death when they
become helpless and are no longer
able to take care of themselves. This
barbarous method shocks our moral
sensibilities, and yet is it not in reality
more humane than the treatment the
old sometimes receive at the hands of
those who claim to be enlightened and
even Christianized? There are today
in our almshouses and homes for the
aged men who are anxiously waiting
for their last hour to come, those too
who were once among the most wealthy
and useful, the most active and hon-
ored members of their community.
Germany and some of the other
countries of Europe have adopted a
system of old age pensions. The sub-
ject has been thoroughly agitated in
England the last year and would be
the leading question before the com-
ing parliament were it not that the
Boer war has arisen to eclipse every-
thing else in Britain.
The Pennsylvania railroad some
years ago adopted a system of relief
that has done, and is still doing, an
admirable work, which the pension
system just adopted is intended to sup-
plement, not supersede. The Penn-
sylvania is the greatest railroad in the
world in the volume of business it
does, and it can justly lay claim to
being the most liberal in dealing with
its employes. When a man enters the
Pennsylvania service he may rest as-
sured of permanent employment as
long as he faithfully performs his duty.
The details of the Pennsylvania's
pension system are less important than
the great humane principle upon which
it is founded. At the beginning of
this year nearly 1,000 old employes
were retired on pension. All employes
of the Pennsylvania system east of
Pittsburg and Erie who have attained
the age of 70 years and all officers and
employes between the ages of 65 and
69 who have been 30 years in the ser-
vice of the company were retired and
placed on the pension list. The amount
paid is 1 per cent for each year of
service on the average monthly salary
for ten years past. Therefore, the man
who has been in service 30 years and
whose pay averaged $50 per month re-
ceives 30 per cent of $50, or $15 per
month during life, unless the total
amount at any time exceeds $300,000,
in which case the list would be scaled
to make the amount come within the
limit. As $300,000 will pay 1,667 men
$15 a month for a year, it is not likely
that any cutting down will ever be
found necessary. |
This last advance movement on the
part of the Pennsylvania indicates’
both wisdom and goodness on the part
of those who conceived it. It will be
a bond of good fellowship between em-'
ployer and employe that will insure
better service on the part of the one
because he feels that it is appreciated
an the part of the other.

Public Opinion.
Opinions From Various Sources on Questions of the
Day.
The National City bank of New York
Is unanimously ror a second McKinley
term. In fact, it would like to see Mr.
McKinley in the White House for life.
—=St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
That William McKinley is by nature
a wabbler on all questions is now
known not merely by all Americans,
but by all living people of the civil-
ized world.—Chicago Chronicle.
A number of Republican editors are
making a great pretense of hunting
for a man for the second place on their
ticket. They know perfectly well that
Mr. Hanna has already made the se-
lection.—Atlanta Constitution.
McKinley prosperity takes a fall out
of the man who wishes to build a house
of the man who wishes to build a
house. A year ago lumber was $12
a thousand feet; now it is $18. The
increase in the cost of production is
nothing; the increase in profit to the
lumber trust is 50 per cent. The in-
crease in cost to the housebuilder is 50
per cent. Such is the McKinley plan
for encouraging people to build and
own houses.—Asheville Citizen.
From his home in Pennsylvania the
Hon. Matthew Stanley Quay sends out
an admission that he will not grace the
senatorial chamber with his presence
during the present session. In rele-
gating the speckled Pennsylvania boss
to private life the senate of the United
States will not only purify the person-
nel of the upper house, but it will rec-
ognize and set forth the limitations
which even a plundering political boss
may not overstep. Between Roberts,
the polygamist, and Quay, the political
scoundrel, the arguments were in favor
of the Mormon. He was at least hon-
est in everything outside of his polyg-
amy. When the time comes for voting
on the question of admission of Quay
the decision is likely to be quick and
decisive. 'The senate should devote no
more time than is absolutely necessary
to the fate of worthless and indifferent
characters.—New York Journal.
Harper's Weekly is opposed to ex-
pansion because it believes that the at-
tempt to govern distant possessions
and barbarous and alien people under
our present system of government will
bring harm to the republic, and will
discredit the cause of democracy
throughout the world. We are so con-
fident in this belief that we are ready
to say that no man who believes in de-
mocracy intelligently—no man who
knows its virtues, which ought to be
perpetuated for the welfare of human-
ity, and its limitations, that make for
good as well as for evil—can be an ex-
pansionist. No movement that has
ever yet been imagined by sordid poli-
ticians or grasping speculators, and
that has been fanned into flames by
the public press, is, in our view, so un-
American as this reaching out after
colonies. We believe that it is imitat-
ing Europe instead of moving along
the lines of our traditions and our
history.—Harper's . Weekly, one year
ago.
Year after year the Republican party
has caught the rural vote with fair
promises, and has subsequently ig-
nored the grangers. Legislative meas-
ures demanded by them have been re-
fused, pigeonholed in committee rooms,
defeated or indefinitely postponed. The
prayers of the agriculturists for relief
from oppressive or unjust taxation
have not been granted. Indeed, the
farmers are compelled to pay more
taxes for fewer privileges and less
state protection than any other class
of taxpaying citizens of the common-
wealth enjoy. In addition, the state
administration denies to them partici-
pation in the fruits of political victo-
ries, on the ground that they are not
competent to fill offices within the gift
of the Republican machine. It is sel-
dom advisable or profitable for organ-
izations of business men to go into
politics, but when there is class legis-
lation, class opposition is justified. The
grangers, if they shall set about it,
will find themselves well able to “hoe
their own row.”’—Greensburg Argus.
When William Jennings Bryan ran
for president a little more than three
years ago he told the people that the
triumph of the political party headed
by Hanna and figureheaded by McKin-
ley meant the triumph of Wall street.
He told them that if William of Canton
was elected that the money changers
would take possession of the temple
and the people would see the bliss of
the occupants as they divided the
spoils. What he then predicted has
already come to pass. The trusts who
have emerged from Wall street, since
a president elected by their contribu-
tions hung up his hat on the White
House hall tree, have covered the land
like a swarm of locusts. They have
laid claim to the credit—which in for-
mer times was given to Providence—
for bringing bounteous crops and fruit-
ful herds to the farmer. Prosperity—
of which they swallow the feast while
the producers pick up the crumbs—
they declare is directly traceable to the
intrenchment at Washington of their
agent and to the adoption of policies
pleasing to them.—Kansas City Times.
Organized labor is lining up against
the president’s imperialistic policy and
its leaders are outspoken in their op-
position, looking upon it as a menace
to American labor and as sure to im-
pose burdens upon American taxpayers
out of all proportion to the benefits
which may be expected to accrue from
the consummation of the policy. In
his recent annual report submitted to
the American Federation of Labor
President Samuel Gompers says “a
marked change within the recent past
has overcome the policy and trend of
our country in its international rela-
tions. The principle of self-govern-
ment is being denied the Filipinos. The
people there are entitled to the right
to institute a government of their own
choosing, the highest or best form of
government that they can institute and
maintain, and to institute it, too, with-
out let or hindrance on the part of any
nation, much less our nation, the re-
public of the United States, on whose
foundation stone is carved in immuta-
ble letters the declaration that ‘govern-
Pu derive their just powers from
he consent of the governed.’ ”
Facts About the Census.
Questions Which the Enumerators Will Ask of the
Farmers.
1. The first really valuable census of
agriculture in the United States was taken
in 1850, of the crops of 1849. The next
enumeration of agriculture will be taken
in June, 1900, of the products of 1899.
2. Instead of recording several farms on
one schedule in the twelfth census, as
heretofore. each farm will be accorded a
separate blank, the entries on which will
not be known to any save sworn officers of
the department. No names will be pub-
lished in connection with information se-
cured from the people.
3. Tax assessors, collectors and equal-
izers cannot serve as enumerators, or have
access to the census returns, or to the in-
formation therein contained.
4. There are more than 5,000,000
farms, plantations, ranches, stock range,
and market gardens in the United States,
all of which, for census purposes, will be
designated as ‘‘farms.”’
5. A “farm? is all the land cultivated or
held for agricultural purposes under one
management, whether in a single body or
separate parcels.
6. The enumerator will ask for the size
and value of each farm, the value of build-
ings, and the aggregate value of all machin-
ery, implements, vehicles, harness, etc.,
used thereon;and the amount of land own-
ed and leased, respectively by the occu-
pant.
7. He will also ask for the acreage and
value of each crop, and the average of im-
proved, and irrigated lands.
8. The designation ‘‘each crop” in-
cludes all grains, cotton, corn, rice, sugar-
cane, sugar beets, sorgum, hay, clover
wild grasses, gathered forage, flax, hemp
hops, peanuts, tobacco, seeds, nuts, tropic-
al fruits, small fruits, nursery and green
house stock, broom corn, Irish potatoes,
sweet potatoes and yams, all vegetables,
including the product of all family truck,
and market gardens, etc. ; also new and
unusual crops when found.
9. The enumerator will ask for the
number and value of the live stock on the
farm June 1st, 1900, which will be report-
ed under a number of heads, such as horses,
colts, mules, asses, cows, heifers, steers,
bulls, ewes, rams, lambs, swine, goats,
chickens (including gninea fowl, ) turkeys,
geese, ducks, bees, ete.
10. He will also ask for the quantity
and value of milk, cream, butter, cheese,
raisins, prunes, molasses, syrup, sugar,
eggs, beeswax, honey, wool, wine, cider,
vinegar, dried and evaporated fruits, forest
products, poultry and meat products, and,
generally, all articles made at home, from
farm materials in 1899.
11. If a person who moves from a farm.
between the end of the crop year 1899 and
June 1st, 1900, will leave a written record
of the products and crops of that farm for
1899 where it will reach the appropriate
enumerator, the statistics of his operations
for that year will not be lost. He will be
required to give the enumerator of the dis-
trict in which he lives on June 1st, 1900,
the acreage, value, buildings, machinery,
implements and live stock of the farm he
then occupied.
12. If every farmer will begin at once
to prepare a careful record of all the facts
which the enumerator will be instructed to
record in June, 1900, he will save time for
himself and officer, and insure more acurate
returns to the government.
13. The twentieth century will begin on
January 1st, 1901. Therefore, the pend-
ing census will afford to future generations
a measure of the strength and condition of
the United States at the threshold of the
new hundred-year cycle. For that reason
everyone should take an active interest in
making it as nearly perfect as possible.
If each farmer will make his own report
perfect, the aggregated report for every com-
munity, and for the nation, will be per-
fect.
Bride Runs Away.
Disappears from a Hotel Ten Minutes After the
Marriage Ceremony.
The police of New Haven, Conn., on
Wednesday night were called upon to hunt
up a bride who disappeared within ten
minutes after the wedding ceremony had
been performed. Louis Toocker, aged 22
years, applied for a marriage license at 8
o’clock Wednesday night, and he and Miss
Bertha Lyman, aged about 20 years, went
to the residence of the Rev. Gardiner Eld-
ridge, pastor of the First Methodist church,
where the ceremony was performed. They
subsequently went toa hotel in New Hav-
en, from which they were to start on the
wedding journey, and while the bride-
groom was conferring with the hotel clerk
the bride, who bad been left in the hotel
parlor, left the building.
When young Toocker discovered her ab-
sence he went direct to the police and
notified them of the facts. The police sent
out a general alarm to the steamboat and
the depot squads to watch for the bride.
Toocker cannot explain the conduct of his
bride. Young Toocker is of good family,
his father being an official of the New Hav-
en fire department.
