SING ANOTHER TUNE NOW.

During the campaign of 1896 the
most active fuglemen Of the advance
agent of prosperity" were the CONNER
cial travellers Not all of them by any
means advocated the election of Nc
Kinley, but most of them shouted for
the Canton statesman and talked about
the prosperity that would surely come
to all classes and conditions of men
in case Mckinley was elected and con-
fdence'restorted. Not all of the gen.
tlemen who carried sample cases and
talked for Mckinley were travelling
salesmen, however. Some Of tho sam
pie cases contained nothing but re-
publican national committee literature
! and the men who carried them drew
their salaries from that same COM
mittee. 1t would be unjust to say that
the travelling men who were SO loud In
their support of Mckinley we're in
Auenced by perquistes but some of
them undoubtedly were. Most of them.
however, were honest in their support
of the gold standard and a hight pro-
tective tariff.
You do not see so many radical Nc
Kinley travelling men these days. This
is due in large measure to the fact that
you do not see so many travelling men.
The great revival of prosperity that
was to benefit all classes balked at
several points and among other points
was the place occupied by the travelling
men. The consolidation of manufac-
turing enterprises has thrown hundreds
of travelling men ont of employment.
The first evidence the travelling men
had of the return or prosperity was
notice that their services would not
longer be required. owing to the form
alton of trusts and combines The
consolidation OF the tobacco manufac
turing industries has thrown more than
two hundred travelling statesmen out of
employment. Hundreds of others have
been thrown out of employment by the
consolidation of the steel, iron pipe,
leather, glass, bicycle, cotton and other
combines. Thousands of bookeepers,
accountants, clerks and foremen, who
shouted for Mckinley in 1885, are now
realizing that the prosperity which
they predicted for all has skipped them
in order to make more prosperous the
trusts and combines nurtur-
ed and sustained by the republican
party.

Is THIS PATRIOTISM

At the administration mass meeting
in Chicago DR.. Henson, one Of the
orators, and one of that class which
arrogates to itself all the patriotism il
this republic, sought to convince hi
hearers that the Declaration of Inde
pendence is musty document that ha:
been relegated to the rear. DR.. Hensol
said:
Today there are those that wave
the Declaration Of Independence in
our face and tell us that the thing
to do is to deliver over those islands
of the archipelago in the east to the
people who are their rightful mas
terz, for "all governments derive
their just powers from the consent
Of the governed" So wrote Thomas
jefferson. Do you remember that
the Lord said to Joshua. my SER
want is dead9" And so is Thomas
Jefferson. I do not believe that
Jefferson was infallible I believe
that live president in the year
of grace 1899 is just as much Of an
authority as president that lived
and died hundred years ago. I
am no worshiper of a saint just be-
cause he is dead. Let the dead
bury the dead. As to that hallowed
document that declares that all
governments derive their just pow
ers from the consent of the govern
ed. if that is to be literally con-
strued there never was a greater
falsehood palmed off by the devil
upon a credulous world. D.
We are informed by the press that
DR.. Henson's remarks were loudly ap-
plauded. The attitude of the imperial
lists is evidence that they believe the
Declaration of Independence is a back
and that if acceped as literal
ly construed there never was greater
falshood palmed off by the devil upon
a credulous world" But there are a
great many people in this country who
do not believe that the Declaration of
is back number and
who construe it literally without be-
|ieving that it is falshood ''palmed off
by the devil upon credulous world"
The declaration of Independence still
is an inspiration to patriotism. 1t is not
worn out. It is the basis of free govern.
ment. Its declaration that all men are
created equal is as true today as it was
upon the Fourth day of July, 1776. Its
declaration that "all just governments
derive their just powers from the con-
sent of the governed" is as true today
as it was a hundred years ago. When
DR.. Henson is able to lay aside his par
tisanship long enough to realize this
fact he will be better patriot than he
now claims to be. u

MANHOOD AGAINST MA1MoN.

The Chicago Tribune keeps ham.
mering away and telling the truth
about the tariff made trusts in a fashion
which may we'll cause the thick and
thin organs of it's party many an un.
comfortable half hour: In recent
issue It said: "There has been since
the 1st of January an astounding ad.
vance in the price of the products Of
those industries which are the favor.
ite field of operation of the trusts and
combines, and which enjoy in full
measure the protection of the tariff
laws. Bar iron has gone up about sc
per cent, steel little more, wire naile
68 per cent, and.tinplate 40 per cent.
The American manufacturers of that
article are protected by duty Of q
cent and half q pound. They can
raise prices and yet be beyond the
reach of foreign competition"
The Chicago newspaper proceeds to
denounce the tin plate and other trusts,
iudorsing the statement of another
prominent republican newspaper that
they are milking the country to the
last drop in order to realize big and
quick profits for works largely estab-
lished by its laws" These greedy COM
bines are informed that they are no
friends of American labor, ''for the
time will come-in the presidential
campaign of next year, if not sooner
when this hosting of prices by them
will be publicly discussed as evidence
that the national policy of protection
has placed consumers at the mercy of
all sorts of combinations which show
no sense of regard for the public vel
fare" The Chicago newspaper rec
ognizes the fact that discomfort over
high prices is serious thing for the
party in power, even when the high
prices are the result of natural causes,
and it is even more serious when, as is
the case with the combines the prices
are advanced illegitimately. -
A particularly strong mepance to the
party that permits this robbery to go
on is noted in the attitude of the Com
mercial Travellers association. many
of which have been thrown
out of employment by the trusts. The
travelling men insist that protection be
taken from the combines, and they
are preparing to make a strong fight.
The commercial travellers we're a pow
or for conservatism in the last presi
Dental campaign, and they are in a.
position to exercise great influence in
the next. In this trust question they
have the consumers and the small job
bers back of them. No one will dis
pute the righteousness of their fight;
it is manhood against dependence and !
free and open opportunity
against q restricted field of individual
action. It ia, in short, manhood versus
point of view of the trusts
chat will enlarge as the subject is con-
,idered.

Was Cloudy In Chicago.

Chicago, Nov. 14.-The rain last night
and early his morning dampened the
enthusiasm of DIR. Laves and other pro-
fessors and students at the University of
Of Chicago, who had planned to watch
for the first appearance of the swarm Of
meteorS. Professor Hough, director of
the Dearborn observatory at the North
western university, will. with a corps of
scientific professors, make Observations
of the meteoric shower tomorrow MORN
ing if the conditions permit.
At Williams Bay, Wis, q special apDa-
ratus for observing and photographing
the great meteoric shower is in place on
the roof of the Yerkes observatory. Pro-
fessor Barnard has spent a considerable
time for a few nights searching fer the
ephemeroids of he meteoric cloud. The
position Of this cloud in our sky has been
quite accurately determined. The main
body should now be enter ng the con-
stellation Leo. Though he has searched
carefully with the big Yerkes telescope,
the professor has not yet discovered any
thing which he could identity as the me-
teoric cloud. In his search Professor
Barnard has discovered many new nebu-
lac, and one seen last night is exactly IN
the spot where the meteors should be.
This signifies nothing, however, unless
ON further observations the nebulae is
found to have moved. The sky last
night was totally obscured with clouds.

Shape Of Porto Rico.

New York, Nov. IA special to the
Times from Washington says: One of
the most curious results Of the anneXa-
ton of Porto Rico will be an alteration
in the shape of the island as it is known
to the world, The coast survey is now
at work finding out what the real shape
OF Porto Rico is and it has already learn
cd enough to show that the old Spanish
surveys are not only unreliable and
worthless, but that they give a positively
false impression of the formation of the
coast. Porto Rico has been of an oblong
shape. 1t has looked as if the sea, dis
gusted with the queer shapes aSSumed by
the island, had determined to throw
about it's surface at least one island as
even in contour as a cigar box, just to
show that it could be done. The coast
survey is beginning to find out that Porto
Rico has considerable irresularity. At
the eastern end there is a long north
western slant into the ocean,. This will
make the island bigger than had been
supposed. No one can tell what shape
Porto Rico will be when it is finally sur
veyed as an American possession, but it
seems certain that it will not be the insu-
lar freak it has appeared or the Spanish
surveys.

the period of flight appeared shorter and
they lost their brilliancy. F~ortunately
the atmosphere was clear and few clouds
interrupted the view of the heavens.
Equally satisfactory conditions should
prevail tonight. While observations of
the meteoric shower are being made from
every university in the country, Harvard
seems to be taking the lead in gathering
data. From the Harvard observatory
requests have been issued for reports of
all regular observations of Leonids.
Those reports will be compared. and
