Io plead for mitigation of the robbery

nounced as a sinister onslaught upon
"established conditions." Every pro
testing squirm of the sheep in the hands

wicked and wanton purpose on the part
of the hapless animal to -'disturb busi

without hope that this sort of defense
will avail. It trusts that everybody is
so tired of uncertainty that a known
amount of blackmail, however large,
will be paid quietly in preference to in
viting the chances of change. The
game has been set to run for three years
at shortest, and the banker addresses his
victims thus:
"It is a brace game, gentlemen, of
course; as an honest dealer I won't deny
hat you all know. But you had better
come up with your money and let me
steal the advertised percentage than go
to all the trouble and worry and expense
of neglecting other business to get a
square game set. You know what you
are bound to be cheated out of here, and
can make vour arrangements in vour
affairs accordingly."
The country wants rest unquestiona
bly, and business men are anxious for
certainty, but the Republican party will
te disappointed in its calculations, nev
ertheless. The argument that it is bet
ter to put up with piracy rather than to
face the exertion and cost of suppressing
the pirates, might be addressed with ef
fect to thieves or slaves. As the Ameri
can ieop!e are neither, they will rise at
the very first opportunity and free them
selves from this robbery. The price of

Judge Wickham, who made the de

far as it applies to this case, is clearly
unconstitutional, and he cites the case
of Goodcharles vs. Wigeman, decided bv
the supreme court in 1S9G, in which the
court said: "The act is an infringe
ment alike of the right of the employer
and the employe; more than this, it is
an in.ulting attempt to put the laborer
under a legislative intelage, which is not
only degrading to his manhood, but
subversive of his rights as a citizen of

bound senators did it merely to keep
the opptsition quiet and with no inten

the kicking deen done at that stage of
the game it would have been easy to
have secured pledges that would have
insured those items being let alone in

The tight against the confirmation of

that Mr McKinley has requested Repub

who are lightiug confirmation say they
have pledges from a sufficient number
of senators to make the rejection cer

when Czar Reed made the house com

According to an expert business man.
The following is the tax that will be paid
to the sugar, tobacco, and leather trusts,
on account of the new Republican tar
if: An average of 50 cents more for
each pair of 6hoes: from 25 cents to fl
more for every leather satchel or trunk;
irom io to o per cent advance ;n price
lelts, straps, harness and other leather
goods. 1 2 to 1 cent a pound more for
sugar, and a general advance in prices
aud detonation in quality of all candies
and preserves; an advanee of 50 cents a
box on imported cigars and a general
toweling of quality in all grades of ci
gars and cigarettes.
Some of Speaker Reed's admirers are
very sore because they accepted that lit
tle fairy story about the house confer
ees standing out for a suear schedule
that would operate against the trust, and
played sugar stock to fall. Its tremend
ous use, which i now history, caught
them for large amounts.
Although Senator Woleott, Mr. Ste
venson and Gen. Paine may not know it
they are, unless all indications are at
fault being used as tools by the single
standard gold men. While they sup
pose themselves in Eupope for the pur
pose of making friends for international
bimetallism it looks as though they were
there merely to'help the single standard
gold men retain their grip on the Uni
ted States. It will be rememliered that
these gentlemen were ins ructed b3fore
their departure for Europe that all their
negotiations must be conducted through
or in conjunction with the U S Ambas
sadors Therein lies the whole plot.
The U. S. Ambassadors to Great Britain,
France and Germany ar? each as strong
advocates of the single gold standard as
Secretary Gage is. They had privately
made known the situation in the U. S.
to the governments to which they are
accredited lefore the arrival of the sil
ver commission that unless the single
gold standard countries came to the res
cue the silver men would elect a majori
ty of the next house, the senate already
having a silver majority, and be in a po
sition to pass a free coinage bill. Noth
ing more substantial was asked than that
those governments should agree to the
holding of an international conference
next year, and now the announcement
has been made that one will be held
next fall. The date will be specially ar
ranged so that the congressional elec
tions will take place before it is known
that the conference is a failure as it is
certain to be. The conference is relied
upon to keep those Republicans who be
lieve in the possibility of international
birrWalisrii in the party traces. It is
quite a nice scheme, but its success de
pends upon the willingness of many
voters to allow themselves to le hood
winked into the belief that the interna
tional monetary conference will do
