Talk about deserting the Chicago
platform! When the democratic party
had been betrayed; when its party ma
chinery was in the hands of agents of
plntocracy; when not one single state
in the union was safely democratic and
when despair spread like black pail
over this nation, the Chicago platform
saved democracy, recalled the party
organization, drove out traitors, in
creased the democratic vote beyond the
highest water mark, and with all the
trusts, big newspapers and banks
against US, polled 6,511,90e votes for
Bryan against 5,054,000 votes for Cleve-
land. Yet we are asked for the sake of
harmony and temporary success to
compromise truth for error, right for
wrong.-Fairf1eld Sun.

Two Tiny Republics.

Goust is the smallest republic, as to
area, but Tavolara is the smallest re-
public as to population. Goust is only
one mile in area. It is located on the
fat top of mountain in the Pyrenees,
between France and Spain, and is rec
ognized by both Of these countries. It
is governed by a president and coun-
Gil of twelve. It was established in
164S and has 130 inha bitants. The pres
ident is tax collector, assessor and
Judge Goust has no church, clergy
man nor cemetery. The people wor-
ship in church outside Of their own
territory, and the dead bodies are slid
down to cemetery in the valley be-
low. In that valley all the baptisms
and marriages are performed. Tavolara
is II miles northeast of Sardinia. It is
an island five miles long by half-mile
wide. It's total population consists of
55 men, women and children. The
women go to the polls with the men
and elect every year president and
council of six, all serving without pay.

The formation of another steel trust
thaS will surpass all other combina-
tions in that line of production, with a
capital amounting to billion dollars,
is certainly not intended to meet the
legitimate necessities of the trade, but
rather to bring the product more COM
pletely under the control of gigantic
monopoly. The parties who form these
trusts, says the Philadelphia Herald,
go about it as if combinations for the
restraint of trade were not contrary to
public policy and common law.

Done With a Rifle.

Adolph Toepperwein, San Antonio's
marvellous young rife shot, lately per-
formed another of his astonishing
feats, reports the Philadelphia Record.
With .22-caliber rife he stood at a
distance of 20 feet from double thick
ness of heavy paper, about three feet
long by two feet wide, and shot on it
the outlines Of an Indians head. 1t
took exactly 152 shots to do the trick.
1t was free-hand drawing, as the figure
was not traced on the paper before
hand. This made the feat especially
difficult, as "Tep" had to place every
shot with reference to where its prede-
cessor had gone, and where all the fol-
lowing shots were to go. In other
words, be had to have every detail of
the "6rawing" planned out and con-
stantly in his minds eye while he was
shooting One shot fred fraction of
an inch wild would have spoiled the
whole picture.

If one-tenth of the charges that are
being made about the conduct of the
war just ended are true, it will be diff
cult to estimate the injury done our
army by the incompetence, cowardice
folly and crime of the present rulers
of these United States. When the his
tory of this war is written, its pages
will be smeared with the blood of those
victims who died, not on the field OF
battle, but whom starvation and neg
lect made living sacrifices, on the cor
rupt altar Of political ambition asso-
ciated with the money sharks greed.

Iu Sunday talk to his Rough Riders
Col. Roosevelt gave this good advice:
"Now, here is thing I want to warn
you against: Don't go back and lie on
your laurels, they'll wither. The world
will be kind to you and then it will say,
He's spoiled by the fame of the regi-
ment in Cuba Don't think you've got
to have the best of everything, and
don't consider yourselves as martyrs
in the past tense. A martyr came to
see me to-day. He hadn't had any milk
for whole day. I said to him, oh, you
poor thing and he went away. I hope
he felt better. What I want of all of
you is to get right out and fight your
battles in the world as bravely as you
fought the nations battles in Cuba"

The following is going the rounds of
the press without proper credit: Maud
Muller in the summer heat, raked the
meadow thick with wheat. The Judge
rode slowly down the lane, smoothing
his horses chestnut name, "with wheat
dollar per bushel," said he "this maid
is about the size for me-" Then he
smiled at her and she blushed at him
and over the fence he clum. "Will you
marry me sweet maid" he said, and she
told him eyes" SO they were wed. Alas
for maiden, alas for judge, for the old
designer and the wheat field drudge
Lord pity them both, and pity us all,
for Maud didn't own the wheat at all
And the judge remarked when he heard
the cheat, "Don't talk to me about dol
lar wheat"

Last Sunday night the first killing
took place at Spenazuma, and on Mon
day deputy sheriff Putnam took the
man who did the killing to Solomon
Vile and lodged him in Jail. We did
not learn either of the names of those
connected with the tragedy. but the re-
port is that the killing grew out of
trouble over mining property, and that
about II o'clock Sunday night the man
who committed the murder walked up
behind the other one and deliberately
shot, killing him instantly.-Graham

The fact is, as all but the tyros in
journalism know, that one must read
the country weeklies in order to gather
the true sentiment of the people, says
Stockton Mail. The metropolitan jour
mails reflect the desires of a few rich
men and of certain political cliques.
The country press reflects the desires
and feelings of the plain, every day
people, to whom the country editors
are always close and of whom they are
part It will be distant day, and
times will have indeed changed, when
we do not look with respect and conf
dence upon the expressions of the
country weeklies. They are a great
