their readers that the silver question was

more certain. On the old issues
we are stronger with the people
than we were in 1896 The sentiment
in favor Of arbitration and an income
tax is stronger. The opposition to gov
ernment by injunction is stronger. The
people better understand the necessity
for bimetallism and better understand
the danger of national bank currency
which places the control of the paper
money in the hands of the banks.
On the new questions sentiment is
developing rapidly. Many Republicans
who did not recognize the menace Of the
trusts in 1896 are becoming alarmed.
They now see the dangers which
threaten the nation when an industrial
aristocracy can arbitrarily control. the
price Of raw material, the rate of wages
and the price of the finished product.
.Tlhe Republican party is impotent to
destroy the trusts because the trusts are
largely responsible for the success of the
Republican party in the last campaign.
While that party is not framing its poll
tics along religious lines, it will not dis
obey the injunction, Remember thy
Creator
Republican hostility to the mastery
inactivity displayed by the Administra-
tion on the trust question will manifest
itself as soon as a clear cut issue is pre-
sented by the platform. The Republican
party will thunder against the trusts
with generalities when the Democratic
party will point out specific remedies.
"On the question of imperialism the
opposition within the Republican party
is already manifesting itself, and will
grow as the determination to fasten its
imperial policy on the country becomes
more apparent. There is no real attempt
being made to defend the Presidents
policy. Some say that it is too late to
discuss this question, because Of ratifca-
tion of the treaty of peace, but the Nc
Emery resolution openly disputes this.
Others say that we cannot tell what to
do until the Filipinos lay down their
arms But the Republicans cannot long
evade the direct issue between the Eu-
ropean idea of force which supports
war of conquest and the American idea
of government by the consent of the
governed. When this issue is presented
there can be no question where the
American people will stand.

for The Empire theatre, and the state
ment was made that this new place of
amusement would be completed and
opened TO the public about September
1. Such an announcement sounded like
a fairy tale, but as the sponsor for the
theatre, A. A. Spitz, is a man OF energy
hustle and grit. the knowing ones pre-
dcted that he would keep his promise.
Contracts We're made and hosts OF
workmen were engaged day and night.
The result is that in few months the
magnificent temple OF the drama has
been completed and is now read
the opening on Monday next. Many
bets were made with Manager Spitz and
other members OF the New Englai
Amusement company. which erected
the building, and Il is now assured they
will have surplus of new hats and
