A. J. BENEDIC. Circulation Manager. Subscribed and sworn to before me this first day of August, 1904. Seal. E. L. GILBERT. Notary Public. DEMOCRATIC TICKET. For President ALTON B. PARKER " , , of New York. For Vice President HENRY G. DAVIS of West Virginia Wyoming, It seems, has also con tracted the lynching habit. Gen. Kuroki and Gen. Oku seem to be first-rate wedge drivers. The Hon. Tom Iwson of Boston seems to be a pretty live wire. General Stoessel Is almost as good a swearer as Admiral Bob Evans.' Liao-Yang seems to stand quit as good a chance to fall as Port Arthur. From the way he retreats Admiral Alexieff would be an ideal base run ner. The casually lit at Port Arthur will soon be as large as that of a foot ball season. "It is suspected that Aunt. Carrie Na tion is preparing to slip up on Bishop Potter's saloon. The Atlanta Constitution fays the United States wants uo Castro in the presidential chair. Perhaps the Hon. Joseph Babcock Is not so bardly frightened as he Is anxious to frighten Wall street. Gov. La Follettt may be called crank but he s-ems to have ,,me pretty clear headed business id,as. That World's fair balloon rare for the Washington monument seems to have been a rsce for the Golden Gale. The Faducah ball team Is a very for midable aggregation when it is bol stered up by a few American league pitchers. William Cowies, who is deaf and dumb, has announced himeeif a candl date for the nomination for mayor of Minneapolis. He probably conteuip late a friill hunt. The Wraiirgjam. Ala., sug jtesth that perhaps tb r-.'ason' Iln. Frank James will tnpport the Uepub Lcan ticket Ij that h ? feels a ccnti mcnfal attachment for the way the tariff works. Mortrpathia new diFta'e tm;ehi!isfs are tail to can - a i. cerebral's is a to which- ao suhject. It Is --at da! cf ca ta If It la a exhausting ns pronouncing Ita name It must be very fatal. It looks now like Gen Kuropatkln will dictate terms of peace In the Toklo Jail. The gag rule attempted at Jones horo yesterday was promptly and effectually gagged. The Chefoo .and Sliang Hal liars will now probably open up a branch offico in Liao Yang. The Hon. Dietrich, of Union county doesn't seem to be a very successful political highwayman. Heavy frosts are predicted for Mis souri the latter part of the week. Sen ator Fairbanks opens his Mhuourl campaign next Friday. The campaign against Llao Yang is now about a week old and up to date six decisive battles have - been fought which havn't decided anything. It looks rather suspicious that Dnv- d n. Hill's resolution to retire goes Into eff H-t on Jan. 1. A great many resolutions which go Into effect on that day are soon tabled. The Democratic senatorial conven tion at Jonesboro yesterday seems to have been a wild and woolly affair. It demonstrated one thing, however, that Illinois Democrats have their lighting blood up this year. An Iowa banker got 18 months Im prisonment for stealing $54,0110 from his bank. If he had been some ob scure person without money or in flueutiai friends he would have gotten 18 years. Thus is the majesty of the law upheld. There will be oceans of sympathy for the little Chicago girl who ran away from home rather than be com pelted to pound the piano several hburs a day. Chicago Tribune. BARGAIN WITH THE" TRUSTS. On good authority it Is stated that William D. Rockeferrei is down for a million dollar subscription to the Republican campaign fund on behalf of the Standard Oil and other trusts. Pierpont Morgan Individually is, on the same authority, pledged for a quarter of a million, the Steel Trust Is down for three quarters of a mil lion, the Sugar Trust for a similar sum. the Tobacco Trust for a half million, the Paper Trust for a quar ter million, the Coal Trust and the Pennsylvania Hallway for a half mil lion, and various other well known interests and monopolies associated with Wall street for large sums. The total campaign contribution to be raised from these sources is re liably put at ten millions. It will be the largest amount of money ever put Into a political campaign. It fairly doubles the last Republican campaign fund. It means the trial of Uie power of the dollar as against the power of the people. It means that the old Repub lican bargain with the tariff monop olies is to be reproduced on a larger scale with the trusts of today. A campaign fund of ten million dollars from the trusts mean that the enemies of the masses are wil ling to pay for immunity. It illus trates the profit In the proteetjon which is the robbery of the many for the benefit of the few. It is a form' of absolute insurance aeainsf disturbance of the Dingley schedule through which the trusts have enrich ed themselves, and against the rigid enforcement of the laws of the land as they apply to monopoly and Illegal combinations. Such a campaign fund shows that the trusts are not afraid of prosecu tion at the hands of Mr. Roosevelt. He gave earnest of his amicability toward these powers when he con sented to the removal of Attorney General Knox from his position of menace to a Pennsylvania senatorship The man who had prosecuted the Northern Securities case was an ob stacle to a Roosevelt campalcn. Following Knox's removal Pierpont Morgan and numerous Wall stre-f magnates and railroad financiers call ed at the White House, several of them lunching in turn with the Presi dent. A peace was patched up which literally passes understanding except upon the tnoory or an agreement m tween "the administratis and the trusts by which Mr. Roosev.-d: was to be aided in his presidential race and the trust were to be let alone in the evnt of his elc-ction.

This big trust donation puts an end to the fake of the Ronublican nrs concerning Wall street's oppo sition to Mr. Roosevelt. Th admin Juration's defenders lied in the face of the lode that Wall street coull not rlesert its own inre's. that the prlvilferd nKinopolies could not aan d'n the friends of proteriirm. but if nill require a crrtT tf-mrity than I h" dffiiiders ()s.-e: ro ascrt now that Wall t-treet is for Judg- Park"t.
