THE BOA DTOA NA RCII Y.
In the spirit of the blackest kind of
black-republicanism, the Oregonian oi
last, week We Inesday justilies the re
fusal of Governor Durbin, of Indiana, to
honor the requisition by the state of
Kentucky for ex-Governor laylur, wno
is a fugitive from justice, hehavingbeen
implicated, with other republican poli
ticians, in the murder of Goebel. The
uiuiu uuul of the "groat daily's" ar
gument is that the accused would not
have a fair trial in Kentucky. Since ex
Guveruor Taylor was honorably recog
uiz.vl and cheered by the luto republi
can national convention, does it seem
aa though a democrat, accused of a po
litical murder, would receive a fair trial
in a republican state? Does not such a
course Joad to anarchism? The Com
moner appropriately comments :
If the reasons presented by Governor
Durbin are Bound, then it is perfectly
safe lor a republican to kill any demo
cratic executive and (lee to a republican
Htat.i, and if democratic governors act
upon the Baine principle, it is safe for a
democrat to kill a republican official aud
then lice to a democratic state. In other
words, the position taken by' Governor
Durbin, if accepted as a piecedeut, in
vites a reign of lawlessness, and ought
to alarm the friends of law and order,
regimllessof political affiliations.
In hi.i "History of the Precious Met
als," Alexander Del Mar, who never
makes a statement unless he is positive
he has the facts, says: "From a, care-full-.'
guarded report of. the chamber of
mines (a British organization) for 189(3,
is leathered evidence to show that 'the
Transvaal mines (mostly owned by Brit
ish capitalists) havo been worked from
first to last by unlives who were en
trapped and forced into them against
their wlil ; that thoy were bought from
contractors at eo much per man, bound,
strapped, made drunk with rotten liquor,
aud thrust nuked into pits which avarice
has dug and hypoericy has covered
over.' Mr, 1V1 Mar contends that the
precious metals cost more to produce
than thoy are worth, lie shows that
in the Transvaal mines, (or instance, 11 e
salary of the free miner average only
lfl.51 per diem, concluding that 'it is
quite evident that without forced labor,
without slavery, and without working
the mill on the Sabbath, the industry
c.'uUl not havebeen made to pay .' "
Wis are so accuttnnod to the compass
that wo forgot what a wonderful thing
it is and how little we know of it. The
greatest scientist today knows scarcely
more about why the compass acts as it
doeB thau did th el first man who used
it "in the early dusk and dawn of time."
We have discovered that a magnetized
piece of steel, iwung on a pivot, will, as
n rule, point in a certain direction. Why
it does so is not known for certain,
and perhaps never will be, though any
number of ingenious apd learned theo
ries have been advanced. In some parts
of the world tho compass points due
north, and in others it points to the east
or 'to the west of north. And in son e
parts it will not act at all. At it place
called Kotchetowka, in Russia, Profes-
sor Leyst, of Moscow, found that the
needle pointed downward, juet as it does
at the magnetic pole. And yet there is
no iron within 600 feet of the surface of
the earth at that place. " The whole sub
ject of magnetism and electricity is full
of miracles and mysteries
According to Prof. W.B. Scott, of
Princeton, horses in Western America
began in the form of animal ''harrliiT
arger than domestic cats, the remains
of which are to beound in the Wasatch
beds of Eocene time. Latemn, in the
form of the mesohippus, these animals
attained thestatu're of sheep.and showed
considerable advances" In organization.
In time the' protohippus was developed,
and it not only attained a greater size,
but had a skeleton "so likethat of a
horse as to require a careful examination
to note the differences." ; The change
from the protohippus to the existing
equus occurred early in the Pliocene.
Yet "the true horse in the restricted
sense of the term (species Equus cabal
lus) was not developed in North Ameri
ca, and appears never to have
readied , this : continent ' until
brought here by the Euro
pean settlers. For reasons which can
hardly .be even conjectured the horse
disappeared entirely from the Western
hemisphere before the discoveries of
Columbus, and continued to' exist only
in Eurasia and Africa." , ' -
r, EdwiK Markham, the California poet,
has investigated the squalid poverty in
the sweatshop district of New York.
He says, in summing up his conclusions
from what he saw r "In these last days
society is confronted by two gigantic
evils the trust and the sweatshon.
These are typi ial of all the rest. They
are the twq giants destroying the indus
trial life of "the republic. One stands
for congested capital j the other for ema
ciated poverty, They are the reductio
ad absurdum othe competitive system.
They spring from a failure to justly dis
tribute the products of labor. They
both show the power of co-operative
principle. They are thejmoderq Titans
who are shaking the public safety- so
thateverywhere the voices are begin
ning to cry: 'Let us consider the new
duties of new occasions let us build
the New Republic.'"
Tub Customs Bureau is collecting
revenue in the Philippines on the theory
that they are foreign territory; the In
ternal Revenue Bureau is collecting in
ternal revenue there on the theory that
they are domestic territory. And each
charges .the other with inconsistency
with the law. They are mistaken. As
Congressman Grosvenor long ago frankly
pointed out, we are in the Philippines to
get out of them "all there is in it."
These two revenue bureaus are each in
its own way carrying out the exalted
policy thus laid down. It having been
settled that 'he Filipinos have no rights
which we are bound to respect, "all
that's his'n 'sour'n." :
Tub Farmers' Advocate, a Farmers'
Alliance weekly, established in 1889,
published at Topeka, Kansas, has been
summarily excluded from the mails by
Third Assistant rostmaster-General
Madden. The paper had received no
previous warning that it would be an
object of vengeance of the capitalist
third assistant of that supposed-to-be
servant of the poople, our postmaster-
general. TI e e U more freedom in
Canada than in this . 'home of the free,"

Tins Filipinos havo lnld a convention
in Manila, representing a constituency
of 330,000. It asked that the United
States establish a territorial government

representation in the lower house of con
gress and two delegated in the senate,
and authorize the boal government to
Usue lOO,Od0,O0J3p..T cent bonds to

by the war with the United States.
These Filipino "rebels" seem more
capable of self-government than Eng
land was in the time of Henry the Sec
ond. ruoi'Kssoit SiiALuu, of Harvard, is of
the opinion that within 23 years tho
yield of gold from the vein or lodes in
which it is associated with other metals,
will alone amount to $500,000,000 per
annum. The output from gravel depos
its and from such as the Rand in South
Africa, whith was horizontally formed
beneath the sea.will add a vast sum to the
annual gold production. Prof. tihaler
is of the opinion that gold will become
so cheap that mining operations will no
longtr pay.
Rkaittifux financial system is that of
our government, says the Pitssburg, Pa.,
Democrat. It taxes the people needlessly
to get au idle surplus into the treasury,
and then to get it out again pays away
their money at the rate of of 140 in re
demption of bonds issued six years ago at
104'e." And the paper might have added
that $11000,000 of this "idle surplus" is
deposited in the national banks, "on
which the banks do not pay a penny of
interest, and which la Inaned to their
customeis at 6 per cent. The people
are taxed to create a banking capital.
An official of the B. A 0. railroad com-
pany recently told a reporter of the
Newark, N. J . , Advocate that a carload
of insane soldiers from the Philippines
had been passing through Newark for
the insane hospital at Washington, D.

some time past. -
- Thb Russian government announces
that it has practically completed the
Moscow, Vladivostock, Manchuria rail
road, 5542 miles in length and costing
$390,000,000. The British government
has also completed the laying of 15,003
nautical miles of cable, bringing Great
Britain in electrical communication with
its most distant' colonies.
Government officials are exerting
themselves to prevent the shipment of
.munitions of war from San Francisco to
South American ports, fearing they are
to be used in the Culombo-Veneztialan
trouble. American mules, however,
continue to go from United States ports
to agents of John Bull in South Africa.
The brightest beam of hope for the
democrats that has come from the elec
tion is Congressman Grosvenor's declar
ation that "the returns mean thit the
protective tariff is no more to be revised
or modified than the Ten Command
ments." Most appropriately, Prof. Smith.of
Rockefeller's Chicago Kerosene Univer
sity, expresses the opinion that "trusts
are monarchies, unlimited and uncon
stitutional monarchies." One honest
professor at least.
John Morley, pointing to the fact
that the British taxpayer's load has
been increased by $160,000,000 a year
during the last ten years, declares there
is "real danger ahead of the country."

Are A
YOU? I
The dial of the punch
ing machine won't
answer that question.
Strength depends on
nutrition, when the
stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition are diseased, the body fails
to receive its full supply of nourishment
and hence grows weak. That is why no
man is stronger than his stomach.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach and the
allied organs of digestion and nutrition.
The fooa eaten is then perfectly digested
and assimilated and the body is made
strong in the only possible way by nu
trition. "I was troubled with indigestion for about two
years," writes Wo. Bowker, Esq., of Juliaetta,
Latah Co., Idaho. "I tried different doctors and
remedies but to no avail, until 1 wrote to yoi
and you told me what to do. I suffered with i
pain in my stomach and left side and thought
that Itwouldjjill me. Now I am glad to write
this and let youknow that I am all right. I can
