anarchists appears to be the complete
destruction of all existing rulers or
officials who have influence in shaping
the policy of nation, whether they be

Era Jsckaon, of the East Oregonian,
is a free trader, pure and simple, from
A to Z, and from Alpha to Omega.
He does not believe in a custom house
- in any nation, and considers that trade
between nations should be as unre
stricted as the air we breathe. This
to him is the golden rule, and to im
pose tribute or tariff on any nation in
their commercial relations with an
other is a relic of barbarism . He has
no religion except absolute free trade
and single taxation. If these princi
ples were carried out fully he is firmly
convinced that the lion and the lamb
- would he down together, and a little
' child could lead them; that the nations
of the earth would beat their spears into
pruning hooks', and their galling guns
into plow shares; that the white
winged angels of peace would flip
their pinions over the nations of the
- earth, and they would learn war no
more. It must be supposed that to such
a ' person the Wilson bill, with the
senate amendments, is not the one
thing desirable to dictate an economic
.' policy for the United States; but not

beyond a doubt, and, as matters of self

of "proper precaution. In this free

to 08 successfully overcome; but if by

guilty of an offense against the law;
but as soon as he is known to enter
tain the doctrines peculiar to that
class he should be deemed dangerous
to the community and susceptible to

have been at work that have effected
almost a complete transformation of
oar institutions. From a nation of
3,000,000 people at the time of the
Revolution e have increased to 65,
000,000; and from the exercise of the
purest principles of honor, honesty
and patriotism our citizens have
grown to be grat financiers and com
mercial schemers. Wealth has been ac
cumulated very rapidly by the few,
and the worship of gold has supplanted
the love of freedom and country.
Combined capital has formed corpora
tions, and their pernicious influences
have been exerted on all branches of
government. This land, once the asy
lum for the oppressed people of all
nations, affords no greater protection
for the poor than some other .less
favored countries. However much
the present condition of affairs may
be deplored, no one can clos? his eyes
and ears to the illustration of Amer

The sugar trust was proved before

Another Baltimore paper, tbe Aewt,
