A great lockout took place the first

carpenters who have been thrown out
of work for an indefinite period. The
movement originated in Upland, where

employers answered by threatening a

unions attempted to prevent such a
calamitous consummation of the con-

Mr.. Gates on Trusts.

In his testimony before the Indus
trial Commission Mr.. John ". Gates
makes some surprising admissions
and unexpected suggestions.
He admits that the protective tariff
had much to do with the upbuilding
OF the iron and steel monopoly and
that a continuation Of that policy is
essential 10 its future prosperity He
admits that the trust has shut down
plants but asserts that wages have
been raised 40 per cent, which is
pleasant for those who receive the
increase but not helpful to those who
have been put out of their Jobs.
Mr.. Gates suggestions are more
liberal than usually come from
trust organizers. Hewants corpora
tiOns to pay literally for their char
ters III the beginning and afterwards
a franchise tax increasing as the cap
italization grows so that a corpora
tion capitalized at 800, 100000
would pay 100000 per annum,
and advocates government superyi-
sion OF corporations.
This last recommendation is the
most important. 1t is n recognition
of public interest in those concerns
which is entitled to protection. But
what is the measure of such interest.

Automobile Flows.

That Dr. Gatling, the gun inventor
has produced an automobile pillow is
good news. 1t is said that this pillow
will enable one man to do the work
of eight men and twelve horses. Ii so.
the days of drudgerv on the farm will
come to an end The farmer will ride
to the field, do all his blowing in one
eighth of the time it used to take,
and then have leisure for something
more alluring. though not perhaps
more useful than turning over the
sod.
In thus devoting his talents to the
arts OF peace, DR. Gatling may vet
acquire fame i'll a way that should be
more satisfying to good man than
an inventor of murderous weapons.
1t is to be hoped that his example
will stimulate other inventors to ef-
forts in the same field.
The conquest of nature for the ben
eft of man, which a good automobile
pillow would greatly aid, is as high
above the conquest of man as the
heaven is above the earth. -Ex.

From Governor of Ohio, which Of
flee Foster held two terms, from Sec

TaylOr's Friends Are Uneasy.

Frankfort. Nov. ,16.-Friends OF
W. S. Taylor, republican candidate
for governor, have begun a quiet
canvass of the members of the legis-
lature, sounding them as to how
they would vote on "a contest if the
state election boards should throw
out Knox, Johnson or Pulaski coun-
ties, and also LOO votes east in
Nelson for ". =. instead of W. s.
Taylor. 1t is said four democratic
members OF the house and at least
six democratic senators have been
found, so far, who will not vote to
seat Goebel.
This movement on TaylOr's side is
construed to indicate the opinion
that Goebel will be given a certificate
of election from the state board
The story that Goebel has abandon
ed the fight and decided to enter the
field against Blackburn for senator
is pronounced absurd by friends OF
both, and is laughed at by both
Goebel and Blackburn.

Flyoring the Rich.

There can be no doubt about it,
the republican party believes i'll pro-
tecting the rich and taxing the poor.
One of the demands OF this party is
that banks he entirely exempt from
taxation.
But has anyone heard republican
leaders pleading that the poor be ex-
empt from taxation?
Has any proposition been made by
the republican statesmen that food,
clothing, medicine, or shelter, be re-
lieved of the burden Of paying taxes?
Then why should Il special plea be
made for the banks?
But not only do these agents of
the money power, headed by William
Mckinley, president OF the United
States, demand that the banks shall
pay no taxes, but they are laboring
with all diligence to give them spe-
cial privileges.
In order to favor the banks, a de-
mand is made that gold shall be the
sole standard OF value, that the
ureenbacks shall be called in, that all
paper money shall be issued by the
banks and that the sole security of
these notes shall be the office furni-
ture of the private concerns which
put forth these notes.
These propositions are all mon
strously unjust They would show
the rankest favoritism. They would
grant special privileges to the rich.
who do not need them, and put the
masses completely in the power OF
the wealthy classes.

of legislation bue it is Just the kind

Senator Chambers Views.
Kansas City Times.

KANSAS City Times.
Senator William E. Chandler, oil
New Hampshire, announces his posi-
ton on the several issues which the
parties will have to deal with next
year, and it may be said that lie an
tagonizes the president at every
point, except as to high protection.
Presumably Senator Chandler be-
ieves that his state win endorse the
stand which he has taken, and if he
feels that he has its backing, the
trusts, the gold standard and the
presidents colonial scheme will find
relentless opposition in the New
Hampshire senator. The senator is
a high protectionist and ii bitter foe
to trusts, and he harmonizes the one
with the other very adroitly. He
would not reach the trusts by med
ding with the thing that makes them
possible. He would not deprive the
industries Of the advantages of high
protection which shields them from
foreign competion. but he would
make it crime torindustries to com
bine to destroycompetition at home
He would, in short, make plundering
the public an easy matter, with
plenty of temptation to do it, but
destroy the man who yielded to the
temptation.
But where Senator Chandler will
be found opposing the administra-
ton most vehemently win be on the
money question. He wants no legis-
lation at all The present monetary
system suits him. He is in favor of
greenbacks, silver and gold, and ma
tional bank notes that are secured
by government bonds, but under no
circumstances would heagree to turn
the paper money issuing junction of
the government over to the banks. |
H. is stickIer for enforcing the ex-
listing law which makes government |
obligations payable in either silver
or gold at the government option
that the treasury shouldpay in silver
when it is more convenient for it to |
do so. Senator Chandler is not for |
the free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer nor for its elimination from the
monetary system. He would coin
silver ON account OF the government |
and keep its volume fully up to, if
not more than equal to the volume
of gold, and then oblige the treasury
to refrain from discriminating the
one from the other The senator
still hopes that the time will come
when the nations will agree upon Il
general basis of Il bimetallic system
which shall place gold and silver upon
a parity in their debt paying value.
But meanwhile he will insist that
when creditor OF the nation presents
himself at the treasury for his money
he shall be obliged to accept either
gold or silver at the option of the
That is what he calls
in coutradistinction to
The gold standard and free silver {
