The people rebelled and threw the Republican party out of power wtoen it squandered a billion dollars in two years. Now that it spends over a billion dollars in one year, what the people will do to it next November ought to be a plenty, to say the least.

A Republican paper which receives its inspiration from the Republican campaign managers says that “the tariff has practically nothing to do with the cost of things on the market." If this is the case, why have all of the Republican papers been demanding that congress put wood pulp and printing paper on the free list? As a matter of fact, however, the tariff has '‘practically*’ everything to do with “the coet of things on the market.” The tariff protects "the trusts from for-

elgn competition and enables them to make prices to suit themselves. And the trusts never forget to make them high and keep them "high. No party ever emptied the dinner pails of the country as suddenly and completely as the Republican party did last October. And they have remained empty ever since except when—as In Indianapolis and other cities—they were filled with free soup. Adolphus Busch of St. Louis Is the biggest brewer In the United States. Busch Is for Taft, and he says that when Taft is nominated for president the country will settle down to “norman conditions” and business will improve. Of course Busch has special reference to his own business. v When it refused to enact a law requiring the publication of campaign contributions and also refused to make any revision of the tariff until ‘‘after the election," the Republican party served notice on the trusts that they would be expected to come forward with the customary, amount of the boodle. It is rather funny that the Republican politicians and newspapers which shout the loudest that “Bryan can’t be elected” are doing all In their power to prevent his nomination. The fact that they do not want Bryan nominated is conclusive proof that they feel in their bones that he cannot be defeated at the election. It Is charged by Taft’s Republic-* an opponents that he and Roosevelt have dickered with Wall street—and dickered successfully. Doubtless they have. Everything seems to point that way. And it should be said that Taft’s Republican opponents are not above dickering with Wall street themselves—and even they may yet do so successfully. Strange things happen in Republican national conventions. Now, just look , here for a moment. The country is going through a period of hard times, caused by th 6 worst financial in our history. This panic was a Republican panic, produced by Republican policies after eleven years of absolute Republican rule in all departments of the government. Millions of men are out of employment and there is distress throughout the land. And yet here is the Noblesville Ledger, one of the “inspired” Republican papers, declaring that “lack of confidence” in the Democratic party “induces instability in manufacture and commerce, brings Industrial depression if not stagnation, and having precipitated a panic, defers recovery for years, maybe." In view of the pan-ic-producing record of the Republican party it takes a tremendous nerve for a Republican paper to say what the Noblesville Ledger has said. i A train on the Pennsylvania road between Chicago and JMttsburg broke all records Monday, making the trip in 7 hours and 59 minutes. A daughter of James B. Oliver, a steel king, was at the point of death and a special train costing $2,500 was made up in Chicago. Dr. Murphy, a specialist, was routed out of bed at 1 a. m.. hurried to the depot and the mad race was on. liability for accidents and the order was “make time.” While running at the terrific rate of 90 miles an hour through the town of Salem, Ohio, the locomotive collided with a buggy containing one occupant, Mrs. Simon Schive. The horses were literally ground up, the buggy smashed into kindling wood and the woman thrown fifty feet in the air, landing on the right of way. She was fatally injured. Mrs. Crittenden, a millionaire’s daughter, is Oliver had released the road from reported better, while Mrs. Simon Schive lies a corpse at her late residence.

If you are going to buy a buggy Scott Bros, have a few more of those fancy Stavers, and you will save money by seeing these bargains before buying.

THE NEW CURRENCY LAW, Of ali the Infamous legislation enacted In the last 25 years, and there hap been much of It, the worst Is the Emergency Currency law, made a law by the signature of President Roosevelt last Saturday night, and which is condemned by most everyone regardless of political affiliations. It is also evident from the reports of the proceedings that he would have signed anything handed him, so anxious was he to show that the republican party had fortified the dear bankers against another “shortage of currency” which is given as a cause of the “late unpleasantness” with which the country has been afflicted since last October. At a time when bank depositors are demanding more security for their hard-earned savings, this sop is thrown to them, decreasing their security by allowing the banks to re-pledge their assets to secure emergency currency, when every dollar is already pledged to pay the bank’s obligations already incurred. In other words, it legalizes the “red dog” money issued by the banks last fall, and makes it a first lien on the assets pledged to secure it. This infamous law was rushed through at the last moment, *after one of the most stubborn fights, to redeem the G. O. P. from the charge that nothing had been done to redeem the country from the “worst currency system the world ever saw,” and every shred of it enacted into law by the republican party. However, this sham will not deceive the people. They have already decided to have as much security for their deposits as the government has for its own, and they have also decided to be relieved from the tender mercies of such men as “Tom” McCoy, Fred Gilman, Robert Parker and their ilk, and now with this last infamy fresh in mind, they will turn to William Jennings Bryan and a Democratic Congress for relief in such numbers that nothing remains to be done but to record the size of the majority and to lay away the corpulent, loud smelling cadaver of the enemy.

Dr. H. W. Wiley, chief government chemist, is in high glee over the immense good being done by the Pure Food law. He used to have heartburn all the time. Now that’s gone and he feels like a fighting cock, all due to the fact that many preservatives and much coloring matter formerly used in the preparation of foods have been dropped under the operations of this law. We had not noticed that men were more frisky or coltish than formerly. Neither have we noticed any one running away. The public health has not improved noticeably in this vicinity and Dr. Wiley’s absence of “heartburn” can no doubt be attributed to some other cause than the operation of the pure food law. Going the rounds of the Republican press in this state is an article which says that "the Republican party has taken steps to keep close tab on all corporations and their business operations;” and that “the party stands for the rights of the people and says that no corporation shall be allowed to override them.” In a sense and for a purpose the Republican party does "keep close tab” on the corporations when an election is pending, but It is to strike them for a contribution to the campaign fund. But no intelligent man, these days, believes that the Republican party has ever tried to keep the corporations from overriding the rights 6f the people. On the contrary, the Republican party has done everything Yn its power to help the predatory lcorporatlons to squeeze the people dr\. It has passed law after law for thist special purpose. And whenever rights of the people” have come in conflict with, the interests of the cotporations the latter have been given the best of it every time. Every well informed voter knows that this \is true. ‘! A

THE VANISHED DAYS. [Kentucky, Missouri, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina and other southern states are rapidly adopting local option and their prohibition districts are increasing.] Lay the Jest about the julep in the camphor bails at last, For the miracle has happened and the olden days are past; That which makes Milwaukee thirsty doesn't foam in Tennessee, And the lid In old Missouri is as tightlocked as can be— O. the comic Colonel and his cronies well may sigh. For the mint is waving gayly, but the * South is going dry. By, the stillside on the hillside in Kentucky all is stur For the only damp refreshments must be dipped up from the rill; No'th Ca'lina's stately ruler gives his soda glass a shove, And discusses local option with the South Ca'lina Gov.; It Is useless at' the fountain to be winkful of the eye, For the cocktail glass is dusty and the South is going dry. It is water, water, everywhere, and not a drop to think; , We no longer hear the music of the mellow crystal clink, When the Colonel ana the Major and the Gen 1 and the Jedge Meet to have a little nip to give their appetites an edge, For the eggnog now is noggless and the rye has gone awry, Aifd the punch bowl holds carnations, and the Bouth is going dry. All the nightcaps now have tassels and are worn upon the head — Not the nightcaps that were taken when nobody went to bed; And the breeze above the blue grass is as solemn as is death,' For It bears no pungent clove tang on its odorific breath. ' And each man can walk a chalk line when the stars are in the sky, For the fizz glass now is flzzless and the South is going dry. I,ay the jest about the julep ’neath the chestnut tree at last. For there’s but one kind of moonshine and the olden days are past; Now the water wagon rumbles through the Southland on its trip. And it helps no one to drop off to pick up the driver’s whip. For the mlpt beds make a pasture and -the coVkscrew hangeth high; All is still along the stiffeide and the South Is going dry. / —Chicago Post.

STARVING CHINESE IN CAR.

Sixteen Smuggled Orientals Discovered in San Francisco. San 'Francisco, June s.—When a sealed box car, which apparently had come intact from Galveston Tuesday, was opened in the Southern Pacific yards, 16 half-starved Chinese were found, in addition to a half load of heavy steel. The car was ten days on the road and had been in the yards for 48 hours. The Chinese had a little water and a few crackers left, but were weak and hollow-eyed. One of them showed a certificate entitling him to admission to the country, but the others were turned over to the Immigration officials, It is supposed by the officials that the men were smuggled across the Mexican boundary and placed in the car at El Paso, the seals of the car being replaced with others. There evidently was an arrangement for their release here, but lissome way it miscarried.
