Junes was frozen out of Its management the plutocratic sympathies of the proprietor and editors of the St. Louis Republic are well understood. although to save its circulation the paper tries to be, editoras ially, as vague and puts! Lie. al Hut in a recent issue one of the Re- publics underpaid editorial scribblers made himself absurd by trying to say something, aa follows: The dominating tendency of monarchies b to use the common people upon whom they subsist as, beasts of burden which must be fed and housed out of their own productiveness, but never permitted to realize that, after all, they are the whole thing. If they become at once too numerous and ill provided for, they can he plunged into war without their eonsent. This decimates the herd and prevents a stampede which might have trampled into the clay the faces of their drivers. War in Europe adds luster to the crown jewels by washing them in the tears of widowed Betsy Jane. It relieves the apoplexy of royal misrule by letting the heart's blood of the canaille. Therefore 1b it good. With us the one perpetual prejudice against war is that we have not and never will have one drop of blood to squander from the veins of the American citizen. There is not a man among the quarter of a million now under arms for whom there is not a place of honor and independence in the ofllce and factories, the fields and mountains of his home. We begrudge them even to the noble cause Into which they rushed voluntarily and unselfishly. The Republic's editor is probably actually ignorant of the fact that the St. Louis millionaire and trust magnates with whom ths paper's owners associate use the common people upon whom they subsist aa beasts of burden which must be fed and housed out of their own productivenebs, but never permitted to realize that after all they are the whole thing." just as the same class does in Europe The royal families are merely ornamental appendages of the aristocracy and the whole burden of royalty, aristocracy and plutocracy could be thrown off at any time by the principal European nations, hilt the people allow themselves to be exploited by monopolists, money changers and tax eaters, just as they do here. The people have and universal suffrage In Great Britain, Germany. France. Italy, Austria, Belgium, Holland, Denmark and Scandinavia. Moreover, In most of those countries there is less illiteracy than in the United States. Of course the people there are used as servile beasts of burden, but they deserve no sympathy, because a majority of them vote for a. continuance of present conditions. The United States, also, recently gave a vote of confidence In government by monopobut this lies, trusts and will soon be reversed.

Reed: "There is not a man among the quarter of a million now under arms for whom there is not a place of honor and independence In the offices and factories, the fields and mountains of his home." Certainly that Is the way It was before monopoly got this country In Its grip. a snap In these days of the single gold standard, land monopoly and trust control of Industry, how is It? Perhaps when mustered out the Republic experts the volunteers to gain places of honor and profit by taking the places of striking coal miners In Pennsylvania or Illinois. While the war progressed the trusts have nil been reducing wages, and will find no more honor and less profit in working for them than heretofore. shut-dow- Klon-dlke- rs IN DEATH WAS BRAVE.

It THE EKEUENCE OF SIIEP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fio Syrup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the true and original n uedy. As the genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured by the California Fio Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one in avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other parties. The high standing of the Fio Syrup Co. with the medical profession, and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs has given to millions of families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is far in advance of all other lu natives, as it acts on the kidneys, liver and bowels without irritating or weakening them, and it does not gripe nor nauseate. J n order to get its beneficial effects, please remember the name of the Company Cali-porn- ia Praia, Honor and Keep net. Praise, honor and respect thee are sweet to all men.
