Less than a year remains in which
to gather facts, and information that
will influence your vote for the next
president Of the United States.
That grievous wrongs have been
committed, and grave errors allowed
to exist without effort at correction, is
evidenced by the speech, writings, and
comments Of eminent statesmen and
jurists; congressman and leading men
CT business; professors and clergymen
in every state.
Party affiliations have been ignored
in the outcry against thrusting aside
the safeguards Of our fathers and rush.
ing pell-mell into the affairs Of Europe.
The situation is deplorable one if
not alarming; as is also our domestic
affairs dominated by gigantic Trusts.
The evils are not Of spontaneous
growth They are the result of years
of labor and expenditure of millions
Of dollars Beginning with the dis
placement Of American silver for
English gold, the cunning of Eng

tiny Of our Republic is apparent to
any ordinary observer seeking the
true inwardness Of events.
The Cincinnati Enquirer has fire.
/ quently called attention to each and
every move as it was Transporting, and
during the campaign Of 1900 will
present its readers with a truthful
array Of facts that will be extremely
interesting and startling.
No fair-minded American, be he
Republican, Democrat or of other
political faith, can afford at this critical
time to ignore the truth. Partisan
prejudice, with the Trusts as dictators,
is far more degrading slavery than
that which existed previous to the Civil
War Of '6I-64.
Trusts in the United States alone
have a representative capital greater
than all the gold and silver in the
world. These will spend many more
millions Of dollars to suppress truth
and facts and mislead all who fail to
look beyond their plausible decep-
tons. Read the Enquirer and you
will be able to discern the truth and
combat falsehood. A victory for
Trusts and the Mckinley Admins
tration in 1900 will end the era of
greatest good to greatest number.
Watch carefully the

OFFICIAL WAR RECORDS.
Over $2,OOO,0OO Expended by the War
Department.


In special report to the Secretary of
War, General F. c. Answorth shows that
the sum of s., $40 921 has been expended to
date in the compilation and printing Of the
official records of the Union and confed-
crate armies since the work was COM
menced in 1874. The expenditures on this
account during the past fiscal year were
Il,35l, leaving a balance on hand Of s22,-
10 nearly al of which is covered by out
standing obligations.
AT the close of the fiscal wear the work
remaining to complete the publication con-
sisted of distributing volumes VI, VII and
vi or series and volume 1 Of series 3:

THESE records, containing the record of mil
itary operations, such as battles. cant
paishs sleSes, etc, is practically completed
1t consists of Ill books.
u; me distribution of these records by the
war Department was begun seventeen
years ago. Under the law each senator in
the Forty-seventh Congress was entitled tn
t"ehty-slx copies and each representative
anu ueiegate TO twepty-one copies for dis
tr1but1on to libraries, organizations and In
dlvfduals, but many of them have failed 10
take advantage of their privileges. so that
no" mere are s2H0 surplus copies stored
IN the war Department. Members of Con-
Siesa ana other government officials and
ilbrafleS and organiZa lions have made an
phcation for copies of this work, but Gen
eral Alnsworth says that 1t is impossible
Tor the department to meet the demand

To relieve the War Department from f,r
tnef embarrassment in the distribution of
Tue war records. he recommends that Con-
sress authorize the Secretary of War to

GRAVES OF THE NAMES DEAD.
for Refinement
Arlington Perfected.

Arrangements for Refinement nj
Arlington Perfected.
The Navy Department has selected as
the site for the burial place of the re-
mains Of the victims of the Maine
explosion, which are about to be
brought from Havana to Arlington. beau
tiful grassy knoll close by the spot where
are inferred the remains of the soldiers
who died at Santiago. The knoll is of q
size just sufficient to accommodate the 1876
graves, so that the dead sailors will be
naturally separated from the other graves
at Arlington.
The arrangements for the refinement
have been perfected by Assistant Secretary
Allen on substantially the same lines as
those followed in the case of the Santiago
victims. The remains of the Maine VIC
tins will bea brought by a special train
directly from Fort Monroe to Arlington.
They will be carried through Gen. Sheri-
dams gate and placed in hospital tents
pending the burial services. each casket
covered with an American flag.
1t is expected that the President. the
members of his cabinet, most of the army
and naval officers in Washington and quite
a crowd of people will be present at Ar
lington when the final interment takes
place, probably the last week in December.

MRS. MAYBRICK'S RELEASE
Dr. DensmOre Says That This Govern
ment Could Easily Get 1t.


Dr. Helen Densmore. who has been 90 long
interested in securing the release of Mrs
Florence Maybrick. is In the CITY TO urge
upon the President and Congress the sd-
Visibility of taking more active measures
to secure her release
DIR. Densmore says that President McKin.
ley asked, through Mr.. Hay, when ambas-
sador to the court of st. James, as a mat
Ter OF international courtesy that Mrs
Maybrick be released, raising no question
as TO her guilt or innocence and repeated
the instruction to Mr.. Choate. So far as
Is known. no answer or a refusal has been
received. Mrs. Densmore is DESTROYS of
having the President press for an answer
to his alleged request.
Mrs. Maybrick has already served ten
years of a life sentence which the present
lord chief justice of England says, over his
signature, was the result of an unfair trial.
that she ought not to have been convicted
and ought to be released.
Mrs. Densmore says an English govern
ment official lately said to the Baroness de
Roques (Mrs. Maybrick's mother) that the
United States government could get Mrs
Maybrick's release In a weeks time if II
was really in earnest in demanding It, Mrs
Densmore further says II is an ever-recur-
ring question why the English home office
refuses to release Mrs. Maybrick "a New
York paper has settled it by giving as an
explanation that the home office is in pos
session of a confession from her" Mrs
Densmore says. mo other theory IL saws
will meet the case. 1t seems impossible
that such a state of things can be true. and
1t has long been cause of wonderment to
all conversant with the case why England
is SO determined in her refusal to let the
woman CO. and those interested and work
ing for her in England wonder why the
United States government takes the refusal
So amiably.
'"The home office of England" continued
Mrs. Densmore, under whose control the
prison system is, Is fossilized beyond the
power of change. Its attitude Is always
against the accused; its investigat tons of
case consist of calling as witnesses the po-
lice who secured the indictment, and who
are always rewarded for securing a con-
victiOn. and the judge who tried the case
A home secretary seldom goes beyond these
witnesses, and the spirit of the department
creates a wall Off suspicion and prejudice
difficult to pierce. Public opinion is the
only influence that can break through its
crust When that is strong enough 1t falls.
II the State Department would insist upon
an answer to the request insist upon know
ing why 1t Is not2 granted, there being no
good reason, they would let her go, This
they have not done. and when it is consid-
cred that the present lord chief justice has
said over his own signature that she was
unfairly tried. ought never to have been
convicted and ought to be released it is
safe to conclude that there is no valid rea-
son for their action.

BAD AIR IN THE HOUSE.
Many Members Suffering on Accom-
of Ill VentiIatfOn

VI Nent1Iat1On.
Many complaints have been made by new
members of the House of the effects of the
lack of ventilation in the south wing of the
Capitol. Headaches and that tired feeling
are laid generally to the score of the bad
air in the chamber and Hobbies, and in
quirfes have been made as to the cause.
1t is noticed that the Senate wing is much
fresher.
The architect of the Capitol today sub
mitted statement to the House, showing
that for lack of few dollars the ventila-
ton of the House ceases when that body
adjourns. The foul air which accumulate
during the day is allowed to stay and tester
during the night, for the heating and VEN
tilating apparatus shuts down.
The Senate runs the ventilators all night,
and next morning that wing of the building
is filed with fresh air. The addition of an
assistant engineer, fireman and two la
horers would perform a like service for
the House, and the architect recommends
that they be provided.
