Election day, Nov. J.
Tho Democratic plan of battle Is to
claim much for Pattlson, and yet they
have 110 hope of electing him, und all
of tliem know It. They are looking for
congressional gains In the senate and
house a seat for Guffey In the senate
and a gain of four members, sufllelent,
under their calculations, to give them
control of the next house.
A Man to be Hissed.
. O MANY rich men die and leave
nothing to charity that when
one has been so generous dur
ing life that his death makes
the world much poorer, notwithstand
ing the fact that he cannot take his
wealth with him, more than passing no
tice should be made of the event. Such a
man was the late Senator James Mc
Millan, of Michigan. Few people knew
that his charities every year amounted
to $200,000 and more, to unostentatious
was his giving, so bountiful weie his
benefactions. Ho expected no thanks
and demanded no applause for his fine
deeds. Rest 'of all, he saw that his
gifts achieved the good for which he
planned. He built a hospital and main
tained It as a memorial of his dead
daughter, and it is free to the poor and
sick and needy of his state. He gave
a handsome library to the State uni
versity and made rich donations to
other colleges. Another benefaction
was the endowment of a school for
colored girls in Texas and thus con
tinuously and wisely divided his pros
perity with those less favored. His
wealth was all of his own making and
represented hard work and keenest ap
plication of a great brain to the simple
details of a business life. Not the least
of his good works was the employment
of thousands of men in the shops under
his control.
The man himself was worth more to
liis country and to his race than was
his money. The same cannot be said
of the majority of rich men.
The effort to rumor Mr. Schwab out
of office seems to be unavailing.
Tho Farmers' Trust.
THE FARMERS of the North
west are organizing a trust
with a contemplated capital
of $50,000,000. Chicago is to
be tho center of this vast agricultural
organization, but Its operations are to
embrace the entire country. The Idea
underlying the combination is the elim
ination of the middle man. The
farmers are to raise their produce as
ueual, but Instead of selling It or ship
ping It to middle men or commission
agents, it will be disposed of and
handled by the salaried representatives
of th'e trust. In this way it Is believed
that tho producer and the consumer
will be benefited. Uniform prices will
be established, gluts will be prevented
and the demand for any particular
article will be met by uniformity of
supply. Say tho cabbage crop has been
a fullure or a comparative failure In the
farming districts around Scranton, the
agent of the trust hete would only
have to telegraph to u point where a
plentiful supply of that esculent Is
known to bo on hand and the deficiency
in a day or two, would be relieved
without, (lie creation of artificial prices.
All kinds 6f farm produce are to be
handled on a commission basts or for
cash. In other words the farmer will
have only to raise his products and the
troublo of disposing of them advantage
ously will be the vork; of the trust or
alliance.
Tho machinery by which the trust
is to carry on its operations has not
bsen yet erected. It Is easy enough to
form a notion of the principle which
will govern It, but only time can prove
its practicability. In order to dispose
of the 'stock of fifty million dollars,
agencies Will be established in banks,
one liieaen county In every state. We
should nqt think that there will be any
great lleluy or dlfllculty In disposing of
it. A block of that stock is a 11101 e
desliajile acquisition to any enterpris
ing fanner than a mortgage parchment.
It secures to hm ut once an Investment
and a jvorjjjng partnership in a colossal
firm. Jl'a amount to be subscribed for
Is not) largo considering that agricul
ture Is" not only the staple Industry of
this country, ns It Is indeed of every
other, ; but that it represents three
fourths of the Invested and productive
wealth' pf our land, directly or Indirect
ly. Farrpers are proverbially conserva
tive, but .the farmer of our day with his
grange, His newspaper and his maga
zine Is In a far more enviable, enlight
ened and progressive stage than his
r
predecessor of twenty or thirty years
ago. If In rerent days his political
credulity has led him nstvay, dollar
wheat chastened him. He Is no longer
tho slave of nn Illusion; he no longer
drcnniB Hint the government can crcato
money, or that the Intrinsic worth of
n silver dollnr Is rnulvnlent to Us cir
culation value redeemable In gold. Tho
populist Is In training to be a mono
polist. A stranger thing never happen
ed In the political world. No Indeed.
Taking for granted that the stock
will be taken up, what tire the pros
pects for the RUccess of the experiment.
The rumor of the death of the middle
man litis so often turned out false that
we nro all tired of accepting obituary
notices of his happy dispatch, nnd until
time or circumstances bring us 11 duly
authenticated certificate of his demise,
we hud better accept his existence ns tt
fact. The hour hns not yet come for
the producer nnd consumer to shake
hands over his grave.
'Ve tire afraid tho scheme Is too nm
bltloun; that there tire too muny tllfll
cttltles to be overcome In renllzlng it.
Co-operative farming has been -often
tried without any large or permanent
measure of success. There must bo
some Inherent principle In It antagonis
tic to economy, durability and natural
adaptation to existing conditions. Un
less It possess these three essentials of
progress and prosperity, it cannot suc
ceed, no matter how plausible It may
seem. One of the most dlillcult prob
lems of tho Industrial world Is econo
mic production, and an Infinitely more
perplexing one. Durability Is the sec
ond great factor. Will a scheme
which appears to bo peifeet In times of
prosperity, stand the test of adversity?
If It does not, it is a bubble. Will it
adapt itself to existing conditions? If
it does not it Is a chimera.
We believe that the supercession of
the middleman is not practicable. He
would not exist In the dispensation of
things If he did not serve some pur
pose. Unquestionably farming pro
ducts pass through too many hands.
Tho beef barons were In their day mid
dlemen. Like the feudal batons of the
Middle Ages, they have come to tyran
nize over those whom in their upstart
beginnings they pretended to serve. If
the trust can subordindte the middle
man to his proper functions as a dis
tributing agent, It will be of Incalcul
able benefit.
m
Speaking of the big crops, says the
Philadelphia Press, there is Indiana
that wants to be looked at. According
to the stale statistician, the yield of
wheat, oats and corn will exceed the
totals of any previous year and put
more money in the hands of the far
mers than any season's ctop returned
them. That places Indiana in the anti
Bryan, anti-Democratic column.
The False Charge of Suppression.
(From the New York Sun.)
TATEMENTS are appearing in
various Democratic news
papers accusing the Republi
can members of the senate
committee on the Philippines of sup
pi essing evidence in the interest of the
Republican party. That the charge is
false is well known to those who had
the time and Inclination to follow the
voluminous proceedings closely. Rut
others may be led astray by the reit
eration of the charge, unless they are
made acquainted with the facts.
The Committee on the Philippines
began the investigation on Jan. 28.
"With the exception of a week when,
owing to absences, It was impossible to
get a quorum of the committee, wit
nesses were heard steadily from Jan.
28 until June G. The hearings were
held as a rule every day In the week,
and always three or four times a week.
During the same period the commit
tee prepared and reported the Philip
pine Tariff bill and the Philippine Gov
ernment bill, the latter being an ex
tremely long and elaborate act. This
work was all done by the committee
while tho hearings were In progress
and thus constantly were its members
engaged In addition to their duties in
the senate chamber. During the same
period, nlso, the Philippine Tariff bill
was passed after five weeks' continu
ous discussion In the senate, and the
government bill, after a little more
than seven weeks of continuous debate.
On June 0, after the government bill
had passed the senate, Senator Lodge
left Washington for ten days, and the
healings were Interrupted, although
dining his absence the committee heard
two witnesses. After the return of the
chairman there was further interrup
tion owing to the fact that the close of
the session was approaching and the
members of the committee were so oc
cupied 'in conference that It was almost
Impossible to get them together. Nev
ertheless, the chairman called Admiral
Dewey before the committee nt that
time, nnd he was heard at length In the
closing duys of the session.
The Philippines committee took dur
ing its hearings about three thousand
printed pages of testimony. So much
for the work of the committee. It Is
doubtful if any committee of congress
ever worked harder or more steadily
than tho Philippines committee during
the same period of time,
The committee refused to hear the
following persons:
Mr. Edward Atkinson, because ho had
never been In the Philippines and had
no testimony, but merely opinions to
offer.
Slxto Lopez, who had not been In the
islands for twelve yeuts.
Asulnaldo. '
Mablnl.
Rio Del Pilar.
The committee refused to call theBe
men because It did not consider It
proper to biimmon as witnesses as to
the army of the United States persons
who hud been actively In arms against
us and were then either held as pris
oners or in exile.
These were the only witnesses re
fused. The refusal was publlo and the
reasons for the refusal were given.
None of these yltnesses could have
thrown the slightest light on the con
duct of our urniy because they were
either in the field against us, or in
prison, or In the United States, Every
other witness asked for was called by
the committee and henid at length.
Every witness suggested by tho minor
ity with the exception of those Just
mentioned was ordered by the commit
tee to be summoned. Tho list of wit-
''.
vT5
nesses was such a long one that It was
not completed when the session closed,
and a number remained on this nc
count uncalled, hut that was not the
fault of the committee.
Uofdre the hearings began, the com
mittee voted unniilmottsty not to ad
mit the public to the hearings, The
room was entirely Inadequate for such
a purpose ntul experience him shown
that admitting tho public only delays
Investigation. The committee admitted
representatives of tho several press as
sociations, covering substantially till
the newspapers of the United States.
They had stenographers present nnd
were at llheity to lake down every
word uttered In the committee room
nnd did tnko down a grent denl of It.
They sent out very full reports which
tho entire newspaper press of tho
country was nt liberty to use to nny
extent. Copies of the full stenographic
repoKts of the hearings Were furnished
on tho afternoon of the same day that
the testimony was taken to tho spe
cial correspondents, nnd the official
report of tho proceedings was always
In print on the following day nnd
ready for distribution to nny one who
desired It. No more thorough means
could have been adopted for the utmost
publicity.
There was no suppression of testi
mony or of witnesses, nnd no refusal
to call nnybody except In the five cases
mentioned. These are the plain facts
about the alleged suppression.
The death of Luther R. Marsh at an
advanced age, and the announcement
that he died poor, recalls one of the
most remarkable and deplorable cases
of victimizing in the history of spirit
ualistic frauds. This man, possessed
of great wealth and 'all the kindly In
stincts of a philanthropist, fell Into
tho tolls of an adventuress, who, work
ing upon his credulity through his de
votion to departed friends, pretended
to receive messages from the dead un
til she secured hundreds of thousands
from him and left him practically a
ruined man. The notoriety of the Diss
Debar affair will long be remembered
as a monumental piece of Impudence
and a singular example of what a man
will do in his search for evidences of
life beyond the tomb.
John W. Gates' idea that If a boy
wants to play poker or gamble in any
other way it is better to gamble with his
father than with anybody else, is un
doubtedly sound philosophy but it Is
not a sure safeguard for the boy, any
more than it is to get drunk with him
if he Is determined to get drunk. A
great many fathers have tried the plan
of gaming with their sons but this
method has not prevented some of the
boys from becoming confirmed game
sters, who have not confined their pas
sion for play to the paternal society.
Possibly, as they sas. the boys were
foreordained to go to ruin any way but
that will not remove the firmly fixed
belief In the minds of many good people
that parents should set a better ex
ample for their children.
It begins to look as though the Demo
cratic state leaders would be obliged
to deal In prize campaign essays if they
expect to secure any material worth
reading for the coming contest.
From present indications King Ed
ward will not be In condition to necessi
tate carving for some time hence. This
appears to be an "off year" for all of
the prophets.
Mr. Ochs appears to have discovered
that conservative Journalism was no
novelty In Philadelphia.
As a professional "Innocent" Mr.
Neely continues to attract attention
and accumulate profit.
WE MUST STAND BY CUBA.
The main argument used by opponents
of reclpioclty with Cuba Is, that the chief
beneficiary would bo the American "sugar
trust. This contention is not borne out
by the evidence put befoio the committee
on wnys nnd means during the first ses
sion of the Fifty-seventh congress. That
evidence thowed that of the 900.UOO tons
anticipated sugar crop In Cuba for tills
year, only lliO.OOO tons weio owned by
Ameilcun Interests, and that all the reht
was owned by Cuban and Spanlaids, who
mainly resldo in Cuba.
Thu sugar trust Is not the piinclpnl ad
vocate of sugur tailff reduction lor Cuba.
The only item of proof to tho contrary Is
the mei'O pittance of (.',500 which Mr.
lluvemeyer gave Mr. Thuiber towards
the expense of thu Hitter's Cuban lecip
roclty campaign. A diop In the buckot
compared with tho trust's financial abil
ity and necessity, wero It ilkely to be
vitally affected by tho fntluro or success
of the bill. What Is $2,000 as against the
"millions for the sugar trust" cry of the
opponents of a broad minded interpreta
tion of our Intel est in Cuba, and of our
obligations towards lioie.
Hon. Suieno E. Payne, chairman of the
committee on isavs and means, stated
our obligation clearly and conservatively
when ho bald on the floor of the house;
"Wo aie in the position of a guardian
who has nettled with hid ward, paid over
every dollar of tho piluclpal tind inter
est, and yet every guurdluu, be he a light
minded man. is interested when that waid
goes into tho woilil, to use every eiulca'ov
that ho consistently can, to make the
caieer of that waid successful," Cuba
came to us us a waid or trust, nelf-lni-posed,
It is true, but still a trust, and
wo should not try to escupo nny of the
obligations of that tt 11st. expiessed or Im
plied. After bringing n child Into the
world, wo are bound to educate It, and
to help It get u stait In HfeV
Tho Cuban reciprocity bill as drawn
by Mr, Payne, approved by the commit
tee, passed by the limiHa, and .shelved by
a contingent of the senato, does not 111.
jut 0 in the least degree the sugar planters
of the United States, It does not give a
benefit to Cuba at the expense of those
plauteis, nor (actually) at the expenso of
our people. It simply means that our
people will, to tho very limited extent of
its piovlslons, btop tailing that much
money out of one pocket and putting It
Into the other, nationally speaking, This
Is undoubtedly so while we, with nil our
dependencies, only produce 1100,000,003
pounds of the 1,000,000,000 pounds of sugar
wo use each year,
Hut our opponents say "Why not cover
the point under tho law providing for
leclproeal treaties." At the time the Cu
ban reclpioclty bill passed the house, this
was Impossible us thero was no one In
Cuba to make a leclpiocal agreement or
treaty, It could only bo douo by passing
such a law ns Mr, Payne proposed, The
hopo and expectation now is that such 0
treaty will be negotiated this fall, In ac
cordance with (be ptovlalons of the Ding
ley tail If law, although the time limit in
those provisions may huvo passed.,
ii)e proposal to pay money directly to
Cuba would establish too dangcious a
precedent, and piobaly lenult In scandals,
If distributed to Cuban planters us pro
posed, fur mora aggravated than those
which resulted from mlr own bounty
system Under the law of 1890. This 'plan,
after It was tllncUsscd In cniicimses nnd
In the house, never had a cotpornl'n guard
of supporters, 'i'ho talk nboiit dilvlng tin
entering wedgo Into tho tntiff by Culmn
teclproclty Is absurd from men who,
with Mr. McKlnlcy, have favored rcclp
toclty, whero It suits us ns In thN case,
nn tho hiind mnld nf protection.
The 1(111 wan not one-sided, but con
ferred ns great benefits upon American
producers nnd people, to nny tho least,
ns upon our wards, tho Cuban plantcis
and people.
Either by passing a Culm 11 reciprocity
bill, or by tlenly, It Is our Interest fully
ns much ns our duty as guntdltin, nny
more, ns parent, to stand by Cubn, till
bIio Is able to earn lier own living.
