Now that the democratic party
have everything president, senate
and lower house, there hangs upon
their shoulders responsibility that
is overwhelming. A sword suspended
by hair. They cannot hide behind a
subterfuge. Evasions and excuses
will avail them nothing; they cannot
shift the responsibility for they have
the earth and it is fenced in. Will
their Efforts be in the direction of the
masses, or the upper classes? Wait
and watch.

John Wanamaker, is very beneYo-
lent; that is, he poses in that atti-
tude. He recently gave his check for
$4,000 for q popular charity. A few
days thereafter he reduced the wages
OF his sewing girls. His recent con-
tribution OF $40, 900 to the republi
can campaign fund will doubtless
necessitate a reduction of wages in
some other department.. Charity is
good, but Justice is better.

that he greatly resembled in appearance the
''IrOn Duke" of Wellington, who oyercame
Napoleon and a dynasty.
When kidell began to grow old In long

gone home. Happy to get there, he had

He had closed his eyes never to open them
again. and the hand that day after day had
held in the balance the lives of hundreds
was stiffened in death.

and the Republicans have the worst of il.
The convention is almost certain, as 1t now
looks, to nominate man who is opposed TO
dividing San Bernardino and Orange
counties, and the Riverside district will
vote against him. The Democrats, on the
contrary, are sure TO name a Candidate
favorable to this division, and ii is hard to
see how they could lose in a fight of that
kind.

consider themselves in clover. Moore, for
some unknown reason, can nearly always

safe to say that between his personal un-
popularity and his well-known preference
for De Young he will 20 under. That is a
weak spot in the fight.
But in Southern California there Is more
trouble. In the joint Senatorial district
which comprises Ventura and Santa Bar

looks as III he would be chosen TO stand by
the Republicans. he. too. is De Young
man. and The feeling against Nike is so
sIrong that Orr is likely to be beaten badly
10 spite of the fact that the district is slightly
Republican.
To sum it all up il looks as IL the Repub-
