Hon. W. j, Bryan's Views.
Hon, William T. Bryan, tin longer
a colonel in th.* Unit"'! Slates army,
but simply a private citizen, perfectly
free to exprrtr, hin view: on great
public .'piesllous, lum giv::. oapresfion
to the following sousd uttsfanccs on
the subject of impsi-ilaiuro: ..
“I may be in error, but in my judg
ment ©f out nation la in greater dan
ger juet now than Csba, Our people
defended Cuba against foreign arms;
cow they must defend thenslvs
and their country against a foreign
idea—the colonial idea of European
nation*.
“Heretofore greed hmi preverted
the government ami used its instru
mentalities for private gain, but now
the very foundation principles of our
gevermont cm assaulted.
‘ The imperialistic idea is directly
antagonistic t® tb idea and ideals
| which have been cherished by the
I American people since the signing of
j the declaration of indipendance. Our
i cation rauatgive up any intention of
entering upon a coiouial policy such
as now pursued by European countri
es or it must be abandon the docriue
that government deprive their just
powers from the consent of the gov
erned.
“We may believe that governments
come up from the people, or wa way
believe that governments come down
to the people icsst those 'who possess
the hoavicsl w-rnons and the largiat
ships, but v-e cannot advocate both
doctrines
“To borrow a Bible Quotation, ‘A
house divided against itself cannot
stand,’ paraphrasing Lincoln’s ducLt
st;.up I may add that tins nation can
aot endure half republic and half oo.u
cmy—half free and half vassal Our
.oem of government, our traditions,
our p-osent our future
welfare all forbid our mitering upon a
career of conquest

The report from Lee-doa is that
two more America? girls, each worth
millions of dollar', are likely to bc

Miss May Goulet; is indeed, said to
be aiuest. upon the eve of entering
the royal set by becoming the wife of
Punce Krucis of Tock, brother of
England’s future queen. No engage

but it ia raid that affairs sre tending

I ;sy of Solicitors
We see that Representative Mann
has introduced z bill in tile iegbhtu, ;
Ito pay Solicitors General a salary of
$2,000 per am am instead *f feeu, n
it is now done.
W bop* this bill wit be passed,..
$2,000 is is a good salary for a good
officer and at present we cannst afford
to pay extravagant fees to these of
ficers.
We have never seen the justice ■ *
the prerant system, for fro on,
of our courts of inquiry (Justices !
ttie Peace and Const:, bit s) ba ;
act in tfeeir respective capacitres and
trust to luck for theb fees, tu • ibore
u no way under tbe present regime to
get them except from tbe m..-' •• *c
cumulated by lbs payment; of Lacs
and forfeitures, and this fund is de
voted to the payment of ail the fer-i
ef the Solicitor, Sheriff and C'erk > e
fore any on* else can get a cent of
their fees. We think this unjust, for
wa know of instances where J, P’s
havo tiled their bills of cost, they save
been approved by the Judge and oi
dered entered on which
showed that they were proper
Hands. And yet these claims arc un
paid, 'Lough they I rvc ta.-c z -,!
of record hare in our courts for a num
her of year and the officer- have dene
without tueir jus* pay. Why? rv
because the money- paid in n> fines nnd

A Question of Taxation
| For the last six months tha Baviln- j

| pay a large share f the taxes of the
I ilia to. it contends tea counties with
; large cities is them pay more than all
•t< t :o counties combined.
This is true, but wa fail to see |
| anything unjust is it The large cities
I have the wealth, and it is but just I
1 < /h they should pay taxes
. proportion to that wealth. The
truth is the most of the property
which is now dodging Uhe tax col- >
‘eclor is hidden amosg the congre
gated waaith in our large cities,
where the burden og municipal tax !
utiau is rendered as an excuse for the
lew valuation of property when re j
turned foi taxation by tiie State.
The News’plea is for tha class of
men who have sapped tho wealth of!
the country counties and congested it'
iu the cities, and therefore rt should,
be heeded. According to our couteca
iij’sr’ogic a countryman with
i? and a mule shoulo b® made i

thousands in cities should be allowed!
