DEMOCRATS and all others inclined
60 be unti-republicans attribute the
rise in prices to the work Of the
trusts, while the real reason thereof
is the advent of good times, and
these good times are attributable to
the confidence the people have
in republican management. When
business Is brisk the prices of staple
articles of all sorts advance. This is
easily explained. Active business
increases the income of the people.
An increase of income means an in
crease of outgo. The person who
works full time instead of half or no
time, as was the ease generally dur
ing the good old democratic days
of ls93-97, will naturally buy more
of the comforts and necessaries Of
life than he did then,

Let it be chronicled that Com
modore Dewey is a very human
sort of man. He is fond of a game
of cards, and one of the most capa-
BILE "bluffers" when he does sit at
the round table. He plays his
"pairs" and "fours" just as he
fights, with deadly result for his
opponent. He has a temper-not
one set on a hair-trigger, but vig-
orous, healthy temper.

he killed his wife by cutting her throat
with razor and then using the same in
strument on himself. In his confession he
says that he and his wife agreed that life
was not worth living, decided to die to-
gether, and it was left for him to do the
killing. Your correspondent visited Mills
in his cell this morning. 1t was difficult for
him to talk, owing to the wound, and he
refused to say anything on the case. His
answers to questions were of an idiotic ma
ture, as if he were feignng insanity, but
it was learned today that before the coro-
ner's inquest he made full confession, of
which the following is copy:
The last conversation we had was on
Friday evening. We talked our trouble over
and agreed we would be better off dead.

William Mccoy was arrested at 80 o'clock
yesterday morning on the charge of placing
ties on the track of the Manawa railway
for the purpose of wreckng the train. He
gave bail in the sum of $500 and will have
a hearing before Justice Wen this morning
The information was filed in the superior
court, but Mccoy took change Of venue
to Justice Wen. Mccoy denies the charge
and says he will have no difficulty in prov
ing his innocence He admits he was at
the lake Thursday night and says he was
ordered out of the grounds in company with
two women but claims he never had any
trouble with the railway people. Two years
ago Mccoy obtained some cheap notoriety
by lying on the motor track on Broadway
for the purpose, as he said at the time. of
committing suicide. He is not thought to
be right mentally.

him eighteen years ago in Chadron, Neb.
Potts was a hostler and Mr.. Warrick said
he saw him in Omaha about three weeks
