Tbe Democratic party haa been the trust party for the lust twcnty»flvc> year*. It came into power in the lower house of congress March 4th, 1675 «ua tor fourteen years it held almost complete control of that branch of the government; and in all that time they never Introduced a bill to control, reg­ ulate, abolish or prohibit trusts, while accusing the Republican party with be­ ing their friend and protector, This strange Inconsistency waB exposed by James Q. Blaine in a speech delivered In qoshen, Ind„ October 10, 1888, in Which,he said: "'Stop thief,’ is a cry not entirely confined to the criminal clasees, Tho counterpart of tho trick is known in political circles, and es- peclally noticeable in the present course of tho Democratic party re­ specting trusts. TVhen tho Mills bill was before congress, tho president ,pf the sugar trust appeared before the ways^and means committee and, ac­ cording to the, statement made in open senate by Mr. Allison of Iowa, ob­ tained such an arrangement of. duty, as was equivalent to six millions of dol­ lars In the pockets of the sugar trust. That is what a. Democratic congress did for the sugar trust at the request Of Mr. Havemeyer, Its president. The Republican senate defeated the bill. '•\Vellington R, Burt, tho president of the salt trust, woe the candidate of the Democrats for governor of Mtchi-, gan in 1888.” In 1888, congress became Republican, and within, a few months enacted th'e Sherman anti-trust law. Many Demo­ crats voted aghinst It, It is the most effective law against trusts that can be enacted by congress, until the con­ stitution is amended by extending the power of congress to legislate against trusts in the several states. The Sherman law only prohibits trusts when they interfere with ‘‘trade or commerce among tho several states, or with foreign nations.” An amend­ ment to the constitution, giving con­ gress that right,' was proposed in the last Congress and supported by the Republicans, f but the Democrats de­ feated it, as it requires a two-thirds yote(to propose an amendment to the constitution. Mr. Bryan says state legislation cannot suppress trusts; it must be dona by act of congress. Tct his party voted against giving con- jgress the power to enact such a law. In 1893 the Democrats came into power again under Mr. Cleveland. They enacted the Wil&on-Gorman tar­ iff law. When' the bill passed the' house and was introduced in the sen­ ate, it was understood to bo unsatis­ factory to the sugar trust Mr. Have- meyer, tho president of tho sugar trust, went to Washington and stopped at the best hotel ln the city. Re did hot go to the senate like a common lobbyist but sent for the leading Dem­ ocratic senators to come to him, Ho told them how he wanted the bill amended add they promised that it Would bo done. When tho bill came up in the senate, Mr. Voorhees, tho leader of the party in tho senate, mov­ ed to amend the bill as requested' by Mr, Havemeyer and it whs done. When the bill was sent back to. the house for concurrence in the senate amendment, Mr. Wilson, author of the bill, and Democratic leader in the house, denounced the senate amend­ ment in favor of the sugar trust in the strongest language. He said: "He had been credibly informed and believed that the sugar trust, antici­ pating the enactmont of tho senate schedule, purchased 8112,000,000 worth of raw Sugar, If this was true, the profits accruing to the trust from the Investment In advance of the enact­ ment of the senate schedule would be at least 840,060,000.” Mr. Wilson said further: "The great battle is between the American people and the sugar trust. It IS a battle ln which the trust has taken tJke people by the throat and It will never end until we throw off the grip.” But the Democrats ln coagrees did not throw off the grip. They passed the bill *3 It came from the senate, and th* sugar trust pocketed the 140,000,000. William J. Bryan was a member of congress when the Wilson tariff bill was enacted. He was one of the 204 Democratic members who voted for the sugar trust schedule at the dicta­ tion of Havemeyer, That vote sbowa that Mr. Bryan ts no better than his partv, and cannot be depended on to protect the people against the trusts and monopolies, It caused a great scandal at the time, because it was charged that some senators bought stock In the sugar trust and thus got a share of the forty millions profit. The Democrats also favored the Vrhtsky trust ln a notable instance, Samuel J, Randall was the speaker of the house. The whisky trust asked congress to enact a law extending the time whisky might be kept In bond, and also the time for paying the tax, Mr. RsfidalL as speaker, defeated the bill. When congress next met, the whisky trust asked the Democrats to drop Mr. Randall and elect John O. Carlisle speaker, and it was done. Mr ^attifde gave mem an tne time tney gained to pay the tax and keep the whisky in bond. Um thaw two years ago* th* ” *m" txratfc legislature of Missouri enacted a law creating a ninety million dollar Street railway trust, That I* the trust that ha* recently vanquished the « ® “ dowtors’ and motutmen*’ *1*1** *“ Dmii*, The last effort of the striker- was to employ attorneys to * * tf they Could discover *»me « » * I» to” by which it e*» b* set aside, but th* iaw was drawn up by the biwt lawy n» th« trad bm M amptoy. and 11 w u prahaMy stand lavstigatten. fastMar it waa m w w *I tm* * » r - or V*» Wyck and other Deaiu’ratki oMolals of tho city of N<-w Yutk had organised ice trust and bought up all the iro iu sight and adnurad the price to consumers, Home of the** Shyiwks attended tho Kansas City convention, endorsed the anti-trust plank in the platform and W. J. Bryan as an anti-trust candidate for the presidency. This cry of “stop thief* by the Kansas City ccnvcntton wgs to- tended to divert public attention from their own subserviency to the trust?. The action of the Democrats In con­ gress on the i'orto Rican bill is an­ other instance, of Democratic support of the trusts, The facts are as follows: Tho sugar and tobacco trusts bad bought up all the sugar aqd tobacco that was for sale in Porto Rica, The question waa whether they should be permitted to import it free of duty or whether they should pay for it. The Democrats said let them bring it in free. The Republicans Bald, they muBt pay a duty on it. The Democrats were so determined to assist tho sugar and to­ bacco trusts that they delayed tho ac­ tion of congress for more than a month, whgn tho Republicans, by. tho force of numbers, outvoted them and passed tho bill taxing tho trusts and paying tho money into tho Porto Rican treasury. In view of tho impoverished condi­ tion of Porto Rico and the importance of erecting school houses and the im- provcmontofpubllc roads in the Island, the president recommended to con­ gress that the entire duties collected on goods from that island, from the day it was acquired of Spain, should be given to Porto Rico. ’A bill to do 60 passed the - house' promptly, but when it came to the senate, Jones of Arkansas, chairman of the Democratic national.committee, moved to amend the bill and refund tho money to the parties who had paid the duties. This was simply a proposition made by Sen­ ator Jones of Arkansas, chairman of the Democratic national committee, to take $1,800,000 out of the treasury of the United States and give it to the sugar trust, and also a. large sum to the tobacco trust. This monstrous proposition has not Injured tho stand­ ing of Senator Jones in his party, for he has recently been re-elected to the Chairmanship of that committee. This is the record of tho Democratic party on trusts and It proves what James O. Blaine said twelve years ago that their continual cry of “Btop thief’ was only to cover up their Bub- servlency to the trusts and monopolies that are trying to absorb and control all the business of tho country, * * HOAPLY ’S VIEWS. 1#liy * Democratic Ex-Ounriiar of Ohio Cannot Stmpurc Bryan, .Former Governor George Hoadly, one of the brainiest leaders of Ghlo Democracy. untU liis removal to New York city, to practice law there, re­ cently said that he. felt a kind of joy over the reaffirmation of the Chicago platform, as he believed it meant the certain defeat of Mr. Bryan. Ohio Democrats, who have'learned to respect Governor Hoadly’s frank­ ness of speech, as well as his strong faculty for thinking for himself, will be interested in his further remarks, to-wit: “1 intend to vote for McKinley and Roosevelt, because tho men on that ticket arc so much better than Mr. Bryan can ever be, that there is no comparing him with them. Then, again, I shall vote tho Republican tlck- ot because the currency question is oiie that involves the happiness of ©very man in the country. Bryan and his 16 to 1 are the menaces to the pros- peroty of the country. > "The- most amusing thing about that convention in Kansas City is the spectacle afforded by Croker and Van wyck, shouting against tho trusts, when they are knee deep in that busi­ ness themselves. A convention like that in Kansas City, furnished with its brains, as it Is, by tho greatest liv­ ing anarchist, Altgeld, is not worth discussing anyway." Difficulty in getting men to work on commission compared with four years ago, is reported throughout ths entire, trade, and Is so goneral a* to become a positive proof of the im­ provement In the times. In Chicago, one house making thl3 a specialty this year has found It hard t o get 5,000 commission workers, whllo ln 1896 it had 80,020, many of them men of skill and education, who could find no other work, bat now have plenty to do at good pay. Will men even with such an experience run the risk of a Bryan ballot? (UU nan fcMali III ' '/i '1 ' 111 .............. Oer 1,200,000 more mca la America Is a moderate estimate of the number now earning advanced rlrages, who worked in 1836 for wages.

If wo but glance at their record we find that for long years they have been fond of paramount Iwues. But where are the paramount Issues Of the Democratic party for the past SOor 40 years? They are burled deeper .and more securely than Captain Kidd’s treasure. Where Is their paramount issue of 1864, that the great war which the im­ mortal Lincoln was then waging for the preservation of the Union, was a failure? It 19 perhaps cruel to ask this, That frightful blunder should not be charged to the present gener­ ation of Democrats. The Democrats of today, under the guidance of their distinguished leader, Mr. Bryan, take especial pleasure In lauding the poli­ cies and utterances of Abraham'Lln- HON. F. L. HAY, Kopublleati Congressional Candidate. Fifth District: coin, just as the Democrats of tomor­ row will take pride in lauding the pol­ icies and utterances of William Mc­ Kinley, In 1868 and 1872, when the great hero of Appomattox was our candidate, his opponents fairly showered abuses upon him, He was called a usurper, a tyrant, an imperialist, a dictator, » would-be-monarch, and of course the republic was then, aB now, In danger, Who, In all this land, would now even bint anything of the kind in reference to the quiet, plain, unpretentious cltl- sen-soldier, U. S. Grant? How uhtor- tunato it is that we can not be at least one-half as jUBt To the living os we are to the dead! In 1880 the Democrats were Without "• a paramount issue. The leaders thought they had one, but they were mistaken. It fell by the waysldo. You will recollect that their candidate of that year, General Hancock, declaml that the tariff question was simply a local issue. From 1884 to 1892, Inclu­ sive, the paramount issue was tariff reform, and In the latter year it won. Tho experiment In tariff reform was very costly, but there was one comfort in it—the voters could not be fooled again on the same issue. In 1696 tariff reform bad1 become too barren an Ideality ever to serve again as a para­ mount issus, and .In that year our friends on the other side sprang th* glittering paramount I bsuo o f ' "free sliver.” What has become of the paramount issue of 1896, over which so much elo­ quence was wasted? Four years have' elapsed Since that campaign; four years of history have since been made and recorded. Is there any record any­ where that a single prediction then mado by MV. Bryan has since come to pass? On the contrary, are not busi­ ness conditions as good and the coun­ try fully as prosperous as Colonel Bryan and his fellow-stumpers then Claimed they would ho ln tho event of tho Bueces- of tho free silver party that year? Is It any wonder that the Issue which was paramount In Chlcaso in 1896 was in disgrace at Kansas City ln 1900? Is it any wonder that there Is a general stampede of the Democrats to the pto- tendedly new paramount issue of “ Im­ perialism” ? Four years from now that will be as dead as free trade, freo sli­ ver and other paramount Issues raised by our Sipponcnts in -years--paste, The same old cry of imperialism was raised against Lincoln and against Grant, and it amounts to no more now than it did then. ' . 1 What person of Intelligence can be* lievo there is any such Issue this yCar as '‘republic or empire?” Democratic editors writ* editorials wKli the head­ ing "Republic or Empire,” mud laugh in their sleeves as they do U. The Idea that you can find A thousand men In Ohio or In any other state, in all parties, that would be favorable to an empire, Is simply preposterous. Democrats and Republicans agree that we ate In lawful possesion of the Philippines; that whether McKinley or Bryan or some one else is president, the first thing to be done Is to restore order. And that Is practically all the present administration has tried to do ao far, When that ahall hav* has# accoinpuineci* congises antt not the president must decide upon the future government and disposition •of the Islands, The great majority of people prefer to look on the bright ride of life. Mr. Bryan might well have added in his speech at Indianapolis that this also was the doctrine of the Nstsreae, The great majority of people prefer an op­ timist to a pessimist, and we appre­ hend that this fall ths great majority of the voters will prefer th* patient, hopeful, optimistic McKinley, who hsa faith In hi* countrymen and naught hat imps, tor ths npnMte, ratfc*r thsi the pewkHaistie * t *m « * * ho* vMOM ita*oPi<ii*»*s«*inr,.i l it - , * i S U M M E R F U R N I T U R E i e pgig|g9efi»WHi iiii(i!»!iw i» T H O S E Who did not get to inspect ou r Spring itock shou ld avail them selves of the opportunity to visit our store and exam ine our stock of Furniture* W e have a full stock of Fine,!

The Detroit Abend-Fast, a German paper, opposed to expansion, has the following editorial under the caption; "Whence the greatest danger threat­ ens:” Iu the campaign otJL9Q9, the people .will, like in that of 1896, consider the question from which party the great­ est benefits for the national welfare are to be expected. And ns they .an­ swer this question, so they will also vote, without regard to the noise of speakers and newspapers, who very ] enthusiastically labor for the success i of fhelr'respective parties. 1 The question*now arises: Which is the more dangerous, silver with the distress and suffering, which it will j surely cause; or expansion, with Its great sacrifices? It will not be a very difficult matter for the average voter to find an answer to this question, for the campaign of education in 1896 waa not a useless one; Questions which ln former years were -understood by only a small number of people .are .now easily understood by millions, tor they have studied these questions, and they have now come to the conclusion that free silver coinage as advocated In the Democratic platform and for the intro­ duction of which the Democratic party In case it -should be successful, would make a desperate attempt, that this Would be the greatest possible calam­ ity of our country. Many, & great many, of the people do not like the expansion policy of the administration; many denounce, although theyknowthat this policy did not result on account of any such wish of the administration,^>ut followed a* a matter of neoeaalty. Most of the Republican opponents of expansion, and among them such bril­ liant men as Senator Hoar- and ex- Senator Edmunds, both of whom have tor a generation been very prominent fn American politics, believe that the greatest enemy of our welfare la found in the Demo-Fopocratte free sliver heresy, and that the first aim of every citizen should be. to defeat this. After free silver has been utterly annihilated, then the time will come for solving Other momentous questions and among these the expansion policy, hut at present this is of less Impor­ tance than the free silver question, M lM iM M M > > fcM M i i l4 lA ia jh A 4 U 4 lllA i l4 M s li AliVLee Is to improve our line o f shoes every sea­ son both in style and wear.
