THERE's JUDGE SCOTT'S CARD on
DENIAL.

WHERE'S JbDGh SCOfi'S thhb of
DENIAL.
Diligent search through the columns
Of the State Capital OF Wednesday and
Thursday and perusal OF the Perry
Enterprise Times Of Perry, fails TO
unearth card from Judge j. r. Scott
receiver of the Perry land office, deny
ing the interview with him which APP
peared in Mondays LEADER.
On Tuesday Judge Scott 'phoned to
politicians of Guthrie saying The
interview is false; / spoke to no one
privately or publicly about the mat
ters in question" The Capital OF
Wednesday contained an editorial de
nouncing the interview as false and
observing that "a card Of denial from
Judge Scott over his own signature
appears elsewhere in this paper"
But the LEADER, after patient re.
search is unable to find card Of
denial" from Judge Scott cover his
own signature" and what's more, il
never will. Scott dare not deny the
truth.
It's an easy and pleasant way Of
some politicians to dismiss disagreea-
BILE matters with 80, that's newspa
per lie." As rule the cunning politi-
clan gets the benefit OF doubt by
tossing the blame On the press. Re-
cords will prove, however, that in
ninety.eight cases out Of hundred the
newspaper is correct
The friends OF Judge Scott are very
certain the new receiver made "nonc
Of the remarks printed" The Enter
prise. Times froths thusly
Many Of our people were somewhat
surprised today regarding a supposed
interview with Judge j. x. Scott the
newly appointed receiver at this land
Office, in the Guthrie Leader of last
evening. II was pronounced false 10y
Judge Scott's friends and when called
on by reporter he disclaimed any
knowledge whatever OF the article.
He said that the interview was a
pure fabrication, that in fact no such
interview ever took place; that no
statements were made by him to any
one that could by any possible means
be distorted into such an article as
the one referred 10.
In another place the E. II. says
Scott will print "card OF denial"
Why don't these papers print the
cards OF denial from Judge Scott?
The LEADER is willing TO enter a
contest OF verRcity with the learned
gentleman, providing he will deny
his own statements over his own sig
nature.
The milling Of the Republican press
does not convince the people.

MKINLET's rOLIor on DEoE

M'KISLET'S POLICY or DECEPTION
The administration has not dealt
honestly with the country In regard to
the volunteers IN the Philippines. II
has given out one thing about bring
ing home these men, who have been
worked and fought SO continuously
that many OF them are now unfit for
duty, when Il knew that another thing
was to be done. II has told the coun-
try that Gen. Otis had been ordered TO
send the volunteers home as fast as
transportation could be secured for
them. when Otis had really been iu-
strueted to keep the volunteers as long
as he needed them and could make
them appear 10 stay willingly This
has been suspected for some time, but
when two transports left Manila for
San Francisco last week with only sick
and wounded mea aboard, and two
more with no soldiers aboard, il be-
came certainty, It is now privately
acknowledged by members of the ad-
ministration that IL had, from the iirst
been the intention OF Otis TO keep the
volunteers until the Filipinos surren.
dered, and that the bluff about bring
lag them home as fast as vessels could
be made available was thrown IL be
cause II was thought that the surren
der would occur before there would be
any opportunity 10 send them home.
A government OF the people can never
add to its strength or popularity by
deceiying the people. Every such de-
eeption is an imp0gEment OF the patri-
olism Of the people.

Democratic platform, he said: "The
three most prominent features Of the

a declaration for Independent bimet-

issue Of paper moneys second, astrong

The Horrible Death of a Lineman
on Top of Thirty Foot Pole, at
Bradford, Pa.

BRADFORD, Pa, July 16.-Cyrus
Davis, lineman employed by the
Western Union Telegraph Company,
was electrocuted here to-day. At II: 30
he climbed a thirty foot pole to the
top and was trying to get a good grip
to go on with his work, when his hand
came in contact with guy wire which.
owing to it's contact with live wire,
contained a death-dealing current. The
man was seen to twitch slightly, while
blue flame arose from the hand that
clutched the wire. A spectator who
witnessed the mans predicament, turn
ed in an alarm of fire and soon hum
dreds of people were at the scene
watching sight that was horrifylng
in the extreme. With much difficulty
the body was disengaged and lowered
to the ground Davis was probably
killed by his first contact with the wire

WEALTHY INDIANA MAN
Attempted to Shoot His Wife aud Children
Yesterday Afternoon.

MARION, IND, July 16.-James b.
Crosby, a wealthy manufacturer OF
Marion, attempted to shoot his wife
and family about one o'clock to-day.
Mr.. and Mrs. Crosby had domestic trou-
bic and separated last January. Pre-
vious to the separation Crosby had
transferred to his wife stock in the
Crosby Paper Mills and the Marion
Straw Board Mills, which are both
owned by him, that he might better
fight the American Strawboard trust.
After defeating the trust he demanded
the return of the stock, but his wife
refused to surrender it.
He visited his wife's home to-day
while she and her six children were
eating their dinner and again Demand
ed the stock. She refused and he
pointed a revolver at her and pulled
the trigger. The cartridge failed to ex-
plode and he tried the second Mra,
Crosby ran from the house. A SON
about IS years old attempted to strike
his father with a chair and the father
attempted to shoot him, but the revolt
yer was center fire and the cartridges
were rim fire, preventing tragedy.
The son secured two reyolvers and
pursued his father down the street,
but was caught and held by a neigh
Dor.
Crosby was arrested and given a pre-
fiminary hearing and placed under q
heavy peace bond. A board TO examine
into his sanity will be appointed to-
morrow.

LEADING
Are the Questions Profounded to
Four Hundred and Fifty Trusts y
the Civic Federati n Of Chicago.
Labor Unions Also lnlerrogated.

CHICAGO, July 16.-The general
committee on arrangements for the
conference on combinations and trusts,
called by the Civic Federation of Chi
cago, has mailed circular letters TO
four hundred and fifty trusts and COM
binations throughout the country, ask
ing twenty-six questions, such as the
number of organizations included in
the consolidation, the number yet out
side, total original capital OF the var
ious concerns now merged, and the
present capital employed by the combi-
nation, and the effect on prices of pro-
ducts the effect on labor as to dis
placement aI.d rate OF wages.
OF the labor unions in the various
crafts employed in these combinations
questions are asked as to the effect on
wages, hours of work and the number
thrown out OF employment by the or
ganization of trusts. The committee
hopes the employment of this system
will be that each set of replies may op-
crate as a check upon the others, so
that the final result will be an unques-
tionably accurate lot of data on the es-
sential points at issue in the trust pro-
blem-material which will provide
basis for argument in the conference.
