Do not neglect to read carefully the remarkable announcement printed on the first page.
If there is any honest desire for
justice in the minds of the Kentucky
pursuers of Governor Taylor it is
completely overshadowed by their in-
famous purpose to make political capital out of assassination.

of prompt habits to impose upon them a most uncomfortable wait while the
procrastinators are assembling. Let it
be understood that the curtain will
rise at a given time and then make
he promise good, and the result will
be satisfactory. As to the conduct
of the gallery gods it need only be said that if the frequenters of that exalted half-circle do not show a dis
position to be regulated by common
decency they should be regulated by
the police. People who pay their
money to be amused, entertained or edified by the performance on the
stasre quite naturally resent being
annoyed and harassed by hoodeums in
the audience.
A large and growing proportion of
the people read the newspaper, and
mere is ample evidence that any announcement in its columns which
is to the public advantage will not es-
cape public notice. The man who buys space according to his means
will soon have more means with
which to buy more space.
It is frequently remarked thtit one result of the tragic death of President
Mckinley will be the permament retirement of Senator Mark Hanna from
public life. Although it is not gen
erallv known. Senator Ilanna, before
the President was shot, had with
drawn from active public affairs and,
for imperative reasons relating to the condition of his health, he was ab
solutely removed from political con
cerns.
The sentiment is steadily gaining ground that Silly Billy Hearst's papers the New York Journal, Chicago American and San Francisco Examiner are.public nuisances. It has been well said that these yellow sheets are
putrid in the eyes of all good citizens,
and Hearst himself has long been

the fears of only the putty-hearted,
and they embzon, as canonized virt
ues, all the morbid tendencies of man kind. South Bend Times (Dem.)
It is not anarchism as a politica
doctrine that concerns the United
States, but anarchism as an incitement to violence and murder, ft is
probable that we have laws now which
if properly enforced, would reach the offenders who conspire to commit mur
der and incite violence. Laws could and should be framed and enacted by
congress and all the states increasing
the penalties for crimes atteirpUd-4ip-

such crimes, without in the least im

The weekly reports of the world's markets contain much that is gratifying to Americans. Formerly it was not so. The United States was a nation of borrowers no more than six years ago and prices were made against her. "The London Stock Exchange, " said the financial critic of
the Sunday Special this week, "has
become so Americanized that I need scarcely refer to any but the American
market. The others hardly exist." The supremacy in manufactures and agriculture won by this country and now admitted as a fact in every
capital or Europe is not a mere matter of luck, nor does it come from any lethargic conditions abroad. It is due
wholly and unquestionably to Ameri
can legislation for Americans and it can easily be destroyed by reenacting
the "Wilson-Gorman law.
Not only has the city of Elkhart
m m
improved wonderfully in appearance
during the past ten years, but there is
also discernible a very marked change
for the better in the tone of its society and its population in N general. Time
was when shoddyism, the superficial
and the unstable seemed to be charac
teristic of the elements entering into
the make up of the city, but all this
has yielded to an air of substantial
ness, solidity and reliability so highly
appreciated in healthy social and com
mercial circles. This change for the
better, this transformation, is doubt
less largely attributed to the materia
advancement of the leading business
enterprises of Elkhart, the weeding out and disappearance of pretentious
but frail concerns, the persistent
teachings of a high toned local press,
and the influence quietly but none the less effectively exerted by the Century
Club. Of all the social organizatio
to which Northern Indiana towns and cities can point with pride, in the
opinion of the writer the Century o
Elkhart stands at the head of the list.
It is pre-eminently intellectual.

Henry Watterson said the same in the Louisville Courier-Journal, that many democratic papers and democratic

proved its truth. The renewed pre
sentation of the requisition to Gover

assassination of President McKinley, accompanied by comparisons of the Goebel murder with that of the President, indicate a depth of political depravity in the state of Kentucky such as has not hitherto been suspected. The Goebelltes," who have been exco
riated by papers of their own party and in their own state fully as much as by republicans, are , the first to seek political capital in the great
tragedy at Buffalo.
BULLFIGHT WITH AUTO
MOBILE CRITICISED The French Society for the Pre
vention of Cruelty to Animals, which so often has successfully opposed bull
fights in France during past years, is
w girding up its loins preparatory
to renewing the struggle, fearing a repetition of Sunday's cruel scene ut Bayonne, w here the bull was attacked by matadors riding in a modern twelve-horse-power automobile.
M. Deutsch, president of the Aero
club, presided at the bull fight. The
use of an automobile for such purpose
becomes the subject of harsh comment
in Paris, since sportsmen agree that
an automobile does not add to the
sportsmanlike element of tha conflict and merely panders to the morbidly cruel taste of the spectators.
On the other hand, partisans of the
bull-fighters declare that the innovation of the automobile is an excellent
thing, since if automobilists grow interested in the institution bull-fighting will surely become a favorite sport with many influential persons in
France. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals purposes to address a memorial on the subject to Premier Waldeck-rvousseau, also calling attention to the fact that "Sport club" of Tananirivo, Madagascar, has just organized a series of bull fights under the official patronage of members of the colonial government and
proposes to establish the sport in that
colony permanently. As a matter of fact, Sunday's trial of bull fighting with an automobile at Bayonne was a failure, since the bull
fled from the flying wheels and the automobile was unable to maneuver properly. The bull once attacked the automobile with his horns, but the
wheels being covered with iron armor the beast was overthrown. The spec
tators also witnessed the horrible sight
of the bull being jammed between the
automobile and the side of the arena.
At another time they saw the buirs
foot caught in the hind wheel and the animal dragged ten yards, helpless, in
the dust.
Fair-minded persons who witnessed
the exhibition declare that the entire
sight was sickening, but the orgi
izers assert that it was a success and
announce a repetition of it in the near
future

Tears Amid Smiles.
Few who witnessed the excellent
and vivacious performance of Bettina,
the turkev keeper, as given by Miss
Frances Wilson in the Beggar Prince last night, knew that her heart was breaking and that her eves were suffused with tears because of a great sorrow that had come upon her. Yesterday she was informed by telegraph that her mother had just passed away at the old home in New Hampshire. The brave little woman, though almost overcome with anguish, went on with her part and worked as conscientiously to entertain the audience as she ever did.
. The Lafayette Courier sounds a note
of warning to Indianapolis republicans
who are not up and doing in the pre
sent municipal campaign to compass
the election of Book waiter. Says the Courier: 'The capital city of Indiana does not belong in the democratic
camp, and republicans who contribute
in any way to that are neglectful of the interests of the city and state.' The South Bend Tribune and the Kensselaer Journal have .already spoken along similar lines, and for that matter so has the great body of the republican press throughout the state, showing that a close eye is being kept on matters at the state capital, and that the party at large will not assist in forwarding local republicans unless they give Indianapolis a republican administration.

(Washington Special) The question of trusts will be again brought up in the next congress. The Sherman anti-trust law is not broad enough to deal with the gigantic combinations of capital which have recently been formed. President McKinley recommended this subject as one for careful consideration by congress, and the house passed an amendment to the Sherman act. On the last day of the senate this amendment,
which had been the subject of much
debate, was re-committed to the com
mittee on judiciary. That ended the
effort in regard to trust legislation by
the Fifty-Sixth Congress.
President Roosevelt is on record as
savinor in his speech at St. Paul on
j 0 - A Sept. 2:
"It is not onlv highly desirable, but
necessary, mat tnere snouia De legis
lation which shall carefully shield the
interests of wacre workers and which
shall discriminate in favor ofthe hon
est and humane employer by removing
the disadvantage under which he
w-.w - tj stands when compared with unscrupu
lous competitors who have no con
science and will do risrht only under
fear of punishment. Nor can legisla
tion stop only with what are termed labor Questions. The vast individual
A and corporate fortunes, the vast com
binat ions of capital which have marked
the development of our industrial sys tem, create new conditions and he cessitate a change from the old atti
tude of the state and the nation to
ward property. " President Roosevelt was conserva
tive in that declaration, and yet there was the suggestion of radical methods of meeting the difficulties presented by the vast combinations of capital.
The President will no doubt discuss
this question more in detail in his message to congress, but he will not
prepare that part of his message with
out considering the question from the
legal point of view and after carefu investigation by the department o
justice. The attorney general will no dout prepare a legral opinion on the
scope of the Shejman anti-trust act
and what amendments would make it
effective to prevent monopoly withou crippling American industry.
Attorney General Knox is under
stood to be preparing such an opinion
for the President, and it might be
said here that, while 31 r. Knox was
for many vears an attorney for the
Carnegie company, he disposed of al
his interests in one of the corporations
absorbed by the steel trust before the
combination-was effected, and aid so
at a sacrifice of about $30,000 in the price paid to him for his stock. He did this because he had decided to accent President McKinley 's -offer of a
place in his cabinet as attorney general and wished to be absolutely free
from corporate influence after becom-
y an official of the federal govern
ment. Attorney General Knox will asssist the Paesident to reach an opin
ion regarding trust legislation that will be practical and at the same time
leral.
There has been some criticism of
the department of justice because It has not proceeded against the steel
trust as in violation of the anti-trust
law, but the incorporators of the steel trust keep themselves within the law and the decision of the supreme court in the case against the sugar
trust. The court decided against the
government in that case, and that demm i
cision woum also oeciae any suit
brought against the steel trust, for it
is only monopolistic in production,
not in commerce, to interfere with interstate or foreign commerce. The lawyers in the department of justice
have carefully studied the charter of the steel trust, and they find that any
suit that might be begun under the
anti-trust law would be decided
against the government on the same points decided adversely in the case
(St. Louis Globe Democrat) The republican party has suffered
more from tne assassination ot its
eaders called to the highest station
:han any other ever formed. In look -ng back over the line of martyrs, the listorian will be struck by the fact :hat all three, Lincoln, Garfield arid
McKinley, were sons of poverty who
rose to eminence through the recognition of great qualities by their fel
low citizens. Lincoln was so poor 1
that he had to educate himself; Garfield paid for his education by manual
la'oor on the towpath and elsewhere;
McKinley came from a long line of toilers, was too poor to obtain a col
lege cour.se.and was compelled at an
early age to earn his bread. All these men, great by nature's birth
right though born in poverty, fell by the pistols of assassin's. In a speech last week on these martys of Ameri
can history, Gen. Grosvenor said:
"The great men of today in politics,
at the bar, on the bench, in the great
railroad organizations of the country,
in the mighty industrial field of our tremendous success, and in all the vast world of effort, mental and phy
sical, in the United States, the men of
grandeur, wealth and leadership, have
come up from the humble walks of American boyhood. " Every observer of American affairs knows that,, nine times in ten, the leading men in the country were originally poor boys. What, then, is anarchism trying to accomplish by the assassination of those called to the post of highest responsibility in the United States? Would they kill the spark of ambition in children bom to poverty and bid them follow the example of Czolgosz, whose sole object was to destroy and murder? The common people, the toilers themselves, are the chief victims of anarchists, who object to American oppor
tunity and the rise of any man to a higher station. There is something so demoniac in anarchism that it appeals to the mind by its possibilities of human depravity. The poor are the last who should listen to or tolerate it, for it substitutes malignant hate for the spirit of emulation and cheerful obedience to nature's law of labor.
stricken nation we are at the loss of our comrade and one of the kindest and best-beloved and greatest presidents the country has ever had. The death of President McKinley is mourned here in Washington as that of no man has ever been. It seems like a personal loss to every one here, where he was known so well and was beloved by every one. He perhaps is the last of our soldier presidents."

That there should be room for discovery of an island in the sea of Japan at this time of day seems hardly credible. It would almost be as'much expected to make a discovery of the kind in the Caribbean gea. Yet, according to the Xichi Nichi, a Japanese paper regarded as reliable, it appears that an island was discovered at a point between TJl-long-do, island of Korea, and the Oki archipelago, about 30 miles off. No maps heretofore have the island referred to. It is described as two miles long and about the
same in width. Trees and grass are there, and it contains many inlets, affording good anchorage. The island was discovered by a fisherman about a year ago, he finding the waters about it fairly alive with sea horses. The new island is called Yanko by the fishermen of Japan and Korea. Montreal Star.
