In the four years 1896, 1S97. 1898 and
1899 the profits of the Standard Oil
Company amounted to $127,000,000. In
the same four years the income of the
United States government ran behind
its expenses to the amount of $170,414,-
.807,27. Is not Mr. Rockefeller already
a "bigger man" than old Uncle Sam?
The Standard Oil Company, which
thirty years ago was worth $1,000,000
at the outside, is worth now on the
basis of the market quotations about
$55,000,000—an increase of fifty-five
thousand per ccnt. As an income pro-

than the United States had before the
war with Spain—but that is only a de-
tail.
They own the greatest Iron mines
In the world, carry their ore to the
lakes on their own railroad, and thence
to market on their own steamers. They
have enormous fleets of freighters on
lakes and ocean. They are heuvily
interested in the great passenger ships
of the International Navigation Com-
pany. They come near to controlling
the copper supply of the world. They
own coal mines, railroads and gas
works all over the country. They
have a share In the new Salt Trust.
They have immense interests in street

revenue still larger the next year,
what can keep the Standard Oil Com-
pany from owning the United States?
Nothing hut another trust too rich to
be bought and too strong to be
crushed, or legislation to keep the
concentration of wealth within hounds.
There are no Indications of the ap-
pearance of the former antidote, and
the people will have to get to work
without much more'delay if they wish
to be in time for the latter.
TYRANNY OF MILITARISM.
The features of the minority report
on ths Idaho labor troubles which re-
flect most seriously upon the Republic-
an administration are the patent facts
that the military forces of the United
States were not used solely in the
Coeur d'Alene district for preserving
the peace, but that they were employed
as agencies of oppression In depriving
citizens of their elementary rights and
in serving as Instrumentalities for In-
flicting cruelties upou hundreds of
civilians who were not concerned In
the original rioting that was used as
an excuse for calling out federal
troops.
Some of the unjustifiable abuses of
power pointed out In the report are:
General Merrlam's arresting, at a time
of comparative quiet, the entire male
population of the town of Burke; his
sending a detachment of troops across
the state line Into Montana to arrest
fugitives from Idaho; his placing sol-
diers over citizens and compelling the
latter, by threats of violence, to work
in certain mines; the suppression by
one of his subordinate officers of a
newspaper at Mullan, thus denying
freedom of speech, and in enforcing
the blacklist system by military co-
ercion.
In its summing up the minority of
the committee declares that "General
Merrlam was wholly mistaken as to
his powers anil d ities; that his con-
duct has resulted in the gravest inju-
ries to the liberty of citizens and the
rights of individuals. Innocent men
have been kept in prison for months
anB finally discharged without any
charges having been preferred against
them.''
The whitewashing report of the Re-
publican majority can not overthrow
the Irresistible logic of these condem-
natory facts put forward by the mi-
nority of the committee.
It was plainly the duty of General
Merriam and the president of the
United States to inquire into the
causes of the detention of so many
hundreds of men, not charged with
any crime and never granted a trial,
in the bull pen at Wardner.
The spectacle presented exhibits mil-
itarism in Its worst form. It Is a seri-
ous blow at the basic principles of
free government.—Kansas City Times.

In its address to the workingmen
of the nation the American federation
of Labor uses the following langiage*
"Absolutism, protected and stimu-
lated by a large standing array and

Worthy of Imitation.
The Standard Oil company, which
rules the government at Washington
as it does Its own great army of man-
agers, superintendents and clerks, ran
up against the real thing in Russia.
Rockefeller found out that the czar
knew how to handle a trust without
holding conventions or passing reso-
lutions pr talking about it for years.
The Standard Oil cmpany obtained
possession of the oil wells in the Cau-
casus and began practicing its Ameri-
can methods iu regulating the prices
of oil.
Well, what did the czar do about It?
Did he fill the Standard's banks with
millions of government money with-
out interest, except such as they pay
to a campaign committee, or did he
sell It government property and retain
the title so the Standard would not
have to pay any taxes, or did he loan
It a part of his army with which to
round up all its mlners'ln a hull-pen
for six months?
The czar did not do a thing to the
Standard Oil except to appoint an
auditor of Its accounts with Instruc-
tions to allow the trust "fair profits"
on Its products and to turn the bal-
ance Into the public treasury. That
settled Mr. Rockefeller's American
methods In Russia.—Merced Sun.
Starvation I,J Tariff.
The apologists of the Porto Rico tar-
iff iniquity have a nut to crack in the
appeal sent to congress by the San
Juan chamber of commerce. As all
newspaper readers know, the people of
Porto Rico have been in a destitute
condition ever since the Spanish war.
Many have actually starved to death'
Sickness accompanied famine, and the
situation of the unfortunate inhabi-
tants has been most deplorable. And
yet, under the operation of the In-
famous and unconstitutional tariff Im-
posed by the present congress the suf-

of two cents a pound on rice, their
most important food staple. That duty

ernment In every department. Gov
Allen, the new official at the head of
affairs In the Island, endorses the piti-
ful appeal for a reduction In the nearly
prohibitory duty on rice. In that en-
dorsement we have striking proof of
the gross Injustice Imposed by the Re-
publican tariff manipulators.—Los An-
geles Herald.

During an Impromptu address to the
crowd tbat gathered at the hotel at
which the Boer delegates were stop-
ping at Cleveland, a person interrupt-
ed Mr. Weasels, the speaker, by say-
ing: "You came at the wrong time.
Politics must be considered now by
our statesmen."
"Yes," Mr. Wessels is credited with
saying in reply, "that's so; there
doesn't seem to be anything in this
country bigger than politics, unless it
is the dollar."
Mr. Wessels has "sized up" the situ-
ation. Though he has been in this
country a short time, he has had ex-
cellent opportunities to observe the
national characteristics. We are great
on politics and we are not insensible
to the almighty dollar; that's what
makes us such fierce politicians.
<re Mr. Weasels better acquainted
with our political afTairj he would find
that the interest of orr people in poli-
tics is due largely to their love for ths
dollar.
The professional politician is Inter-
ested in politics because it promises
place and power, both of which can be
turned into dollars. Hut the profes-
sional politician is not alone in seek-
ing to coin dollars out of politics.
Every class, from the highest to the
lowest, is voting for the dollar.
Since the slavery issue was settled
political issues huve hinged on the al-
mighty dollar. The pooketbook of the
voter and not his moral srnse has been
appealed to. He has been urged to | the bent Mftliral Hook

with the specter of free tr^de, no Job
or cut wagf^s flaunted in his face. He
has been appealed to vote for the par-
ty of "tarlfT reform" under promise of
a cheaper coat and an untaxed dinner
pail. Four years ago the iisue was
free silver or gold monometallism, but
the appeal was made largely to the in-
dividual pocketbook rather than the
general welfare. To the majority no
calamity could befall the republlo
greater than the free coinage of a
"fifty-cent" dollar.
In view of the political thought of
this generation, the subordination of
everything In government to a basis of
dollars and cents: it is not strange
that the charge lies against us that
as a people we worship at the shrine
of the slmighty dollar. What else could
be expected? But the strangest fea-
ture of it all Is that though the ma-
jority has been voting to better its
financial condition, the larder of the
masses contains hardly enough to last
from one day to another, while a
week's forced idleness would bring a
million workers face to face with
want, and two weeks' enforced idle- '
n*ss would bring thousands to the
point of starvation, unlees assibtancs
were given them.
And while the masses have been j
voting for the dollar and not getting
it, the government has b*en undergo- :
ing a transformation a." dangerous as
It is radical. The centralization of
power has gone on without interrup-
tion until we find the federal courts
intervening with injunctions in affairs
that should be dealt with by the local
and state authorities. We find the
general government not only central-
izing power within Itself, but its char-
acter has undergone such change that
it has assumed imperial powers, gov-
erning dependencies a* George 111
governed the colonies and fostering
abuses identical to those that led to
the revolution.
That the Boer delegates have come
to realize this change Is evident by the
reply made by Mr. Wessels to a man
who asked him what the delegation
expected to accomplish "We came to
this country." he replied, "because w«
supposed it to be * great republic."
By this time Mr. Wessels and his as-
sociates must have discovered their
mistake. The United .States is a re-
public-empire. The physician to which
the Boers have appealed is suffering
from the same disease with which the
South African republics are afflicted,
and though It contracted it voluntar-
ily, It Is none the less fatal to repub-
lican Institutions than had It been
forcibly Inoculated And until It cures
itself, there is little hope to expect
thst It will be able to relieve others.
