"Shall the people rule?"thi'0?er
ehfidowing quest ion' confronting
the American people jut now,
and tne issue of paramount itn-portant-e
in the Democratic plat
form, was declared by Hon. 'Jim'
Sherman, in bin acceptance spr-ech
delivered vthe 20th, to be "no
1H8UP. ;
Shw"! the neoole shall ruin.'
-- 1 - - -
tirgsd Mf. Hhertnan, andcoutinu-
ing he offers moi'e assurance,
''Barely the people have ruled.
8urely the people will rule,"
Now let's see: Do the people
really nuV, as Mr. Sherman de
clares, dr is the voice of the peo
ple lost in the noise the "Big
Stick'' has made for the pant few
yearn ,. , .; , ;
Think toil the yeople -tne great
ftrtfly dt men who pdy' the taxes
--favor a do-nothiqg congress
whose only record ttade was of
extravagance? .The last two ces
sions of the nation e ccntfress
cost taxpayers over , one billion
dollars each. The. "people put
the cost but did they do it will
ingly?
Do the majority of American
citizens favor the gigantic enlarg
ment of our army and navy, as
planned by the few leaders who
think for the "people?" 1 t h e
burning desire of the peace lov
ing American citizen that his
shall be a noation of war and of
conquest a nation that can
brag of the greatest navy on
earth? If, indeed, that is the wish
es of the 'people' there is a way
to satisfy the desire the election
of. Tatt, will guarantee martial
trlory if nothing else.
Mr. Sherman eays "Shall the
people rule?" is not an iseue, and
if we judge by the recent adminis
tration for the pnat decade, it is
not. The only "inBue'' has been
the will of the !'Big Stick" and
that will has dominated over the
wishes of the people. . The "Bitf
Stick" has forced a continuation
of eur passeNfoon of the Philip
pines. Is it the will of the people
that this republic shall go into
territorial acqmsianon business
that Iihs wrought havoc w i t h
the monarchies ol the old world?
We hardly think that the people
believing in the inalienable rights
ol all free born citizens to liberty
and the persuit of h up piness could
favor further military control of
our inland possessions. But, 'he
people have had naught to do in
the matter . , V
Again, the people believe in a
jroverniflent of the people rather
than a goverumentconerolledby
trnNtsand monopolies, which it
protect e to be reimbursed by
liberal contributions for the favor
How many trusts has the party
that has been iu'power for over
forty years, put out of buerrwss?
How many of ttiose enemies of
theroecrole'B interest s.been throb-
tied? How many, think yCm, will
be put out in the next decKOde
by the present party, which bos
been able to remain in office be
cause of the bribe-money these
combines have put up.
Mr. Sherman neyer Baid a wiser
thing than that, "Shall the peo
ple rule? was "no ifsue'V with
his party. Had he desired that
the people be given an honest
chance to rule to ;have their
votes 'counted against other
votes rather than matched a
irafnst trust purchase money, he
wauld have fought for a publicity
plank in bis platform. Tlie peo
pie will never rule unless they are
given a fair chance at the polls.
A fair chance of public expression
can never be had so long as trusts
are allowed to pollute political
elections with their bribery funaa;
Is Mr. Sherman .willing that all
illegal contributions be refused
'hv hi"v.rty? V Unlly
Mr faXt.nnr n,nv of his 1 Indians of the Sopthwest. I
so. Nor is Mr. Tatt nor anyomis
party Managers. It would mean
sure defeat. So long as it 18 pos
sible Mr. Sherman will see .to it
that popular rule "is not an
issue.
Mr. Sherman winds up by d&lar
irlg the "overshaddwing issue ol
the campaign rally is: Shall the
admiuistration of President
Roosevelt bo approved?" . Mr.
Taft both began and wound up
irt the same strain
Between this proposition and
that set forth by Mr. Bryan as
the cardinal issue Of the day,
Shall the. people rule?" we be
lieve the hope of Democracy for
success this fall is exceedingly
bright,", . " .
Mr. Taft admits he is to be the

Civilized the remeraberance of
ths freouent "Anaches wars" ol
the past generation still rankk-
in the revengeful breasts of the
remnant of this once powerful
tribo. Tourints get a glimpse of
the decendants of these once
"noble red men", at the railwn v
stations in Arizona, New Mexico
and California. At the hot town
'of Yuma, about 1,000 friendly
Indiana live on the banks of the
Iriver, and subsist by selling trink
lets to travelers. The money is
ispent mostly for "firewater."
iTheso yagabonds are known rts
"Yuma Indians," having lost
not onlv their possesions bnt
, their tribal name. They are the
, lowest of their race, and are not
a pure type. The same may be
Haid of those at Tucson, and
other points along the railroad.
At Albuquerque, Santa re aw;
at other points in New Mexaco,
a mild type of the Pueblo Indians
is seen, with hi baykr-t, blanket
and t.rinl fts, which lie offers to
sell to his white brother, Some
of thew cling totlieirTiritivedrep''
but it does not ceein to .fit tliem
any better than their new civilis

A sadder type still is pcen at
tho railway stations in the Mainv
desert, and at tho mining camps

southern California. They have
reached the lowest stiigo in hu
man degradation and have com
bined all the vices of civilization
with the loss 'of their manhood.
