CAN'T SPARE cAMPBtLL.


Phil Armour of the great beef and
whole hog monopoly feels that he can
not spare lawyer Campbell In order to
allow lawyer Campbell to manage
Harrlson's campaign for re. e.election,
The New York World gives tie reasons
why Armour feels as he does, as fol-
lows:
"Mr. Armour has made great many
million Of dollars by driving small dealers
out OF business and substituting the prin-
ciple Of monopoly for the principle OF
competition. He expects 10 continue in
this line of business, and he expects to
have further use for Mr.. Campbell in the
lobby. This will help him 10 drive other
dealers out of business, to perpetuate bis
monopoly and to put more millions OF
other peoples money into his bulging
pockets. What n favored character Mr..
Campbell is that his services should be q
matter OF competition between the beef
monopolists known as Armour q Co. and
the tariff monopolists known as the Re-
publican party"

petition and fair play.

ment. When the guns were sold in a
British port this gun was bought by
Colonel Ephraim Bowen and John b. Muir
ray and sent to New York, and in 1904
was put on a cruiser which protected trad
ing vessels against French privateers. In
1907 the gun was laid on South street,
New York, and was again put in use in
the war of 1912, this time on the famous
brig General Armstrong, with which
Captain Samuel Chester Reid made his
wonderful fight in the bay Of Fayal in the
Azores.
Captain Reid was blockaded there by n
British fleet in September, 1914, and inflict-
ed on them a loss of $50 officers and men be-
fore his ship was disabled He then set the
General Armstrong on fire and abandoned
her. She blew up with great explosion,
and "Dong Tom, with all her other guns,
went to the bottom. In 1S42, however,
"Long Tom" was raised by the Portuguese
and mounted on the castle of San Joao, at
Fayal, as a memento of the wonderful
battle.
One Of the consequences of Captain
Reid's bravery was to delay the arrival Of
the British fleet at New Orleans, and this
enabled Jackson to concentrate his forces
and in1ict that crushing defeat. Colonel
Sam " helu, son OF Jne IunOus Olu COM
mander, has long been endeavoring to re-
oover the gun. Hon. George S. Batcheller,
United States minister at Lisbon, has re-
Gently taken an active part in the negotia-

On May 10, 1892, in the presence of a
large number of people, including the gar
rison of the fort, the military governor,
Jose Ignacio da Silva, formally delivered
the famous gun into the possession of Gen
eral Batcheller. The gun was dismounted
and transferred to American consular
grounds, and it is now constructively on
United States territory and under the
United States flag, awaiting the coming Of
United States steamer promised by Sec.
retary Tracy to convey the noble memento
to the United States.

1853. He was graduated in 1873 from the
French military academy, won some repu-
tation in the army and married Miss
Medora Won Hoffman, daughter of the
wealthy banker of New York city. He
liked the freedom of western life so well
that he founded the town Of Medora, on
the Northern Pacific, and went into the
cattle business.
AS the representative of the executive
committee of the Montana Stock Growers
association for that section he felt called
upon to prosecute the cattle and horse
thieves who overran the country. His life
was threatened and he was shot at eight
cen times. Finally, on June 20, 1888, there
was desperate fight after the outlaws
had surrounded his house. One of the be-
siegers was killed and several were arrest
ed. 1t was claimed that the cowboy was
killed by a shot from the marquis gun,
and it gave the frontiersmen much pleas
ure to assist in indicting him for murder
The trial came on in 1885, and the jury
acquitted him in five minutes.
A little later he ran down one Of his enc
mics, and while galloping at full speed
shot the man dead with his pistol. Such
daring and craftsmanship gained him re-
spect in that region and he was thereafter
let alone. He invested half million dol
lars in Medora, but his cattle yards did
not pay and the investment was loss.
His wife was as enthusiastic in frontier
life as himself and became famous as a
hunter, rider and snap shot.
He took long tour in India as tiger
hunter, then returned to France and
fought two duels, seriously wounding his
man in both, Later he was arrested as an
anarchist, and narrowly escaped convic-
tion on a charge of conspiring to have the
Duke of Orleans killed. He took up the
anti-Semitic agitation, and it was his decla-
ration that mo Jew should be allowed a
commission in the French army" which
led Captain Mayer to challenge him. He
has been arrested and public feeling is hot
against him as ian adventurer who has
espoused the anti-Jewish cause in order to
gain notoriety"

sisted in the removal of goods from
the store and appropriation of funds
belonging to Clafiin & Co. The last
invoice made out by Weatherby &
stevens and the one which excited the
suspicion of Mr.. Leo Frank, was
made out in blank: that is the goods
were not specified. Each article of
the invent tory would read--goods
at so much, naming the amount on
the margin, the number of the articles
not being specified, and all that the
invoice showed was the lump amount
in dollars. This was taken to Kramer
a Kramer to be verified as the correct
invoice, and they refused to so certify.
Then the New York agent took COM

made the inventory, specifying, of
course, each article and giving the
amount with the remarkable discrep-
ancy of between $4,000 and $4,000.
