This is a great stride either forward
or backward according to the in-
dividual's view. It occurs to us
that the general consummation of
such a policy would, to a very
great extent, eliminate the individ-
ual as a factor in the administration
of our commercial affairs and re-
duce our citizenship to a clerical —
almost a mechanical—plane. Yet
the need of some effective reform
is plainly evident. The welfare of
this country, the interest that
money shall bear, the price that
necessities shall bring, the wages
that labor shall receive, cannot
continue always to be domineered
by a handful of eastern million-
aires.

The Coal Barons gave very little
encouragement to the disposition of
the president to settle the strike
and his political opponents are con-
tending that the latter has been
placed in an awkward position,
and he probably is rather embar-
rased. The people, however, irre-
spective of political affiliation, ap-
preciate the motive which inspired
his efforts and will, if wise, profit
by their present experience. The
ueeded reform must be accomplish-
ed through the medium of the
ballot box. It, however, ia a ques-
tion if, after the strikers have been
subduebed, through the medium
of starvation and have returned to
their holds in the ground, they, at
election time, will not again persist
in re-electing the same old gang.
The plank in the democratic
platform of New lork, declaring
for governmental ownership of coal
mines is a direct step towards so-
cialism—the socialist contending
that the government should own
and operate all public utilities.
The democrats of Fayette county
should remember the service ren-
dered the party two years ago by
Mr. Chris. Steinmann, candidate
for re-election to the office of Tax
Assessor, and should indicate their
appreciation of the loyalty and
faithfulness which he then display-
ed, and has always shown, by
making his election overwhelming.
Mr. Steinmann is decidedly the
most pronounced democrat of our
county officials and is so far as the
Sticker is advised,the only one who
has in the recent past had the
courage to openly and energeticly
espouse the interest of the party.
It is therefore clearly encumbent
upon democratic partisans to rec
ognize and repay Mr. Steinmann
for the service he has rendered.
His official record is also a tribute
to his ability and commends his
candidacy to the favorable consid-
eration of all the voters of old Fay
ette.
Senator Harris of Kansas, who
has just returned from Europe
where he went in the interest of
the coming St. Louis fair, spent
several days in Washington recent-
ly. Speaking of his trip Senator
pointed to his shoes which were
American made and which he pur-
chased in London for 10 per cent
less than they can be bought for in
this country. The Senator states
that he found numerous instances
where similiar conditions prevailed
and he emphatically denies that
the goods sold abroad by American
manufacturers are only surplus
products. He says that the Amer-
ican manufacturers are selling their
goods abroad at a fair and reason-
able profit and that they are selling
them in this country at an exorbi-
tant profit. Senator Harris believes
that the prospects of democratic
succcss are much better than they
were a few months ago and speaks
most confidently of the prospects
for 1904. He thinks that the dem-
ocrats will win on the trust issue
alone.— Whasington Letter.
Respectfully referred to Messrs.
Burow and Allen and especially to
the voters whom these gentlemen
are seeking to induce to vote to
continue this form of (Jay-light
robbery.
FROM MIKE.
On Saturday the 14th ult., the
vaults of the United States were
examined and found to contain
$572,936,124 in gold. This ac-
cumulation of wealth, is by the
government officials, declared to
be an unmistakable evidence of
prosperity and of confidence in the
financial ability" of the country.
Whose prosperity? Are the mas
ses benefited by that pile of gold
in the treasury, mainly derived
from the tariff on imports, and
more to accumulate from similar
sources Prosperity for the few
select; misery for those who have
to earn a living by the sweat of the
brow, and the good will of those,
who according to Mr. Geo. Baer,
have been appointed by providence
as the custodians of the world's
wealth, the nations destiny.

The republican congressional
campaign of the ninth district was
opened in Schulenburg on the 14th
ult. with Hon. R. B. Burow, the
congressional aspirant and Hon. R.
B. Allen as his mouth-piece. That
is to say, Mr. Burow has his views
as to the difference between an
orator and a statesman, and these
views were explained to the aud-
ience by Mr. Allen; summorized it
amounts to a green table and men
sitting around it to shape the des-
tinies of about 70,000,000 of Ameri-
can people. Well, there is some
truth in that, indeed some des-
tinies have been and are now often
decided at the green table. But to
be eerious, very prominent states-
men have formulated plans and
edicts for the welfare or woes oi
nations, but not without the assist-
ance of fluent speakers either to
advocate, defend or deprecate such
administrative acts. A Solon can
of course do much effective work
and do it more or less silently, but
to become influential, to become
prominent, to become we might
say, a power among his colleages
it will, in our days, be necessary
for bim to work, but also to work
audibly, forcefully and persuading-
ly. Now, Mr. Burow (whom we
do not know personally) most as-
suredly leaves a very favorable im-
pression, he has the appearance of
a thorough gentleman,houest earn-
est and liberal in his views, and
would probably make a good legis-
lator; but Geo. Burgess has already
gained some congressional exper-
ience aud well merited renown as a
speaker, he has done so far re-
markably well, and the prospects
are that he will continue to do well
and batter if possible.

Lo and behold! A new "expon-
ent of the fundamental principles
of the political parties has arisen in
Lavaca County, a county marching
in the front ranks of Texas democ-
racy and his name is the Hon. R.
B. Allen, the son of a strong apd
ardent democrat. Mr. R. B. Allen
defines democracy as meauing local
self-government. Oh! you shades
of the immortal fathers of the Dec-
laration of Independence, accord-
ing to Mr. Allen's views you were
not able to govern yourselves, and
ye could not foresee that your be-
loved descendents, the citizens of
these United States would be in-
competent to govern themselves.
The republican party stands for
centralized power, well in this Mr.
Allen is almost hitting the nail
squarely on the head, it is rapidly
approaching that mark. Central
ized power indeed, well that means
placing the power to rule at will
into the hands of one human being,
evidently on the style of Russia;
or the Shah of Persia, or some
similiar autocrat. Now here, this
nation is composed of quiet, peace-
loving and very patient citizens,
all things are well with them so
long as they are not interfered
with in the pursuit of their own
happiness, but this much is sure
they will never consent to a central-
ized power.
But Mr. Allen mentions "local
self-government" he does not al-
lude to national self government,
well probably he merely refers to
our State, or even may narrow the
limits to Lavaca county, as regards
local self-government to which he
is apparently so opposed. Does he
dream of a centralized power for
Lavaca who is to be the potentate?
We are quite certain that neither
Judge Ballard nor Hon. T. A.
Hester, would consent to mount
any other throne, except a home-
made rawhide chair. Mr. Allen
also wants a strong army (the late
Squire Allen would have protested)
which is in reality the main stay of
a centralized puwer; what is that
strong army intended for? To
protect the beef and packing com-
binrs; to protect the coal operators
and enable them to secure cheap
labor and starve American work-
men In short to make civil law
subservient to military law, to ele-
vate the bayonet above the consti-
tution. Mr. Allen says he was a
democrat, the son of a democrat
and would still be a democrat if
his father was yet living. We as-
suredly deeply regret the demise
of good Judge Allen, if he were
alive now, Jie might experiment
with the centralization power near
home. However, we have known
R. B. Allen for many years, he
was a fine boy, he now is in jeality
a perfect gentleman, a man of fine
intellect and of learning, he just
merely and momentarily got off
the track, he will soon notice the
clear sign posts, which will lead
him back to the free, the patriotic
high-way of true and faithful de-
mocracy.

Property More Sacred Than
Life.
Such is the sentiment expressed
in "The New York Financial Rec-
ord" by one who signs himself E.
O. B., whoever that may be, that
remark could come from one who
is either a knave or a fool, perhaps
both. No one, even in the most
despotically ruled land on earth
would dare to venture such an ex-
pression. The Robber Knights of
the Middle Ages, many have en-
tertained such views; but civilized,
enlightened humans, never. Per-
haps the poor devil who gave vent
■
*
to that sordid declaration, hopes to
ingratiate himself with aoibeoi
high financial station, if so he
fired beyond the target. None
our financial giants would
ance such a gas bag. Even
most egotistical plutocrats,
consider "property more saweu
than life," and the author of that
worse than silly
rather give up
any, than to sur
of life. Probably he is in the
habit of reading blood and
dime novels, and caught his
from some story where
the wild West
had been strung up for getting
away with another man's (property)
horse.
