The ship subsidy bill, that instru-
ment that is to put millions into the
pockets of the great ship builders, is
to be passed. 1t was the first thing
that the Congressman declared his
party would do. That pledge would be
kept he said. He pictured the mil
lions that were now being paid to the
owners of foreign bottoms and worked
in little touch here and there about
the Stars and Stripes.

The speaker also declared that Cuba
would be made absolutely indcpenf IT..
"Who believes otherwise" he asked.
No one answered him, but there are
thousands of people who thought that
Cuba was to be given Il place in our
glorious heritage of freedom But
the Akron Congressman says not, and
this is another valuable pointer to be
jotted down against the assembling of
Congress. No definite declaration was
made as to Porto Rico and Guam,
which he said were receiving as many
benefits of government as the terri
tories of the United States. Just what

HOW IT is WORKED.

The meat trust has a clnch. 1t likes
the price it will pay for the animal on
the hoof and then fixes the price at
which it will sell the meat to the
butcher, says the Toledo Bee. Now
that Mckinley is elected, the Chicago
packers, otherwise known as the meat
trust, have raised the price Of every
thing they have to sell just one cent
q pound wholesale. 1t is estimated
that this additional cent a pound will
yield to Chicago packers the following
sums, basing the estimate on last
years business: Dressed beef, S15,-
100000; dressed pork and pork pro-
ducts. $20,00o,O0o; mutton, $4,000, 900;
making total additional income to the
meat trust of $89,000,000.
JOn yOu oNC tht poihts
1t didn't cost the Chicago packers n
cent to contribute few million dollars
to Hanna's corruption fund. The peo-
pie have to pay it. And all other trusts
can play the same game. They can
give Hanna as many millions as he
needs and then force the people to pay
1t.
1t will be up to you. The local
butcher won't stand the raise. When
the Chicago packer boosts the whole
sale price cent, the bIchter will boost
the retail price at least that much, and
possibly more.
But that's what the people voted for.

When a man wants the public to
know that he has something to sell, OF
services to render, systematic and
persistent advertising in the newspa-
pers will do more toward achieving his
purpose than any other means Of pub
licity. In every community the most
successful merchants are those who use
the newspapers.

According to the statements of the
Beef Trust representatives, the tele-
graphic reports sent out from Chicago
of the big advance in meat prices were
much exaggerated. 1t will be crafty
ing, indeed, IL the reports shall turn
out to be wrong. The retailers of beef,
pork and mutton will please make a
note of It.

For yea1s American theater-goers
have associated "Trip Van Winkle"
with Joseph Jefferson, until one thinks
and speaks of the man and the charac-
ter as one and the same. Now the
public has the opportunity Of seeing
and listening to this old, and thorough
ly American, stage production in an
entirely new light. The presentation
by Thomas Jefferson and his company
is of special interest on account of the
exceptional cast. Thomas Jefferson,
who takes the part of Rip, is certainly
most successful. He evidently has
taken his father for his model, but
where could he find another so per-
feet? When he comes on the stage it
seems as if the elder jefferson him
self was there. His voice is that of
his father, and his laugh recalls old
associations with dear old Rip. His
characterization leaves nothing to be
desired, and If he is not his father
he is rs good as it Is possible for any
one else TO be. This clever company
will present rip Van Wrinkle" in

Will be made Of the play. The entire
story is laid in that picturesque pro-
vince which has so long been a bone
of contention between France and
Germany, Alsace; and full advantage
has been taken of the charming local
color. Two acts take place in Fritz
Kobus' house, and tho interiors shown
are marvels in their faithful reproduc-
ton of the massive apartments of the
country squire-the dark walls with the
family portraits, the hard wood floor
with the old-fashioned German, porce-
lain stove in one corner, the massive
ceiling and the beautiful stained glass
windows with the bright sunshine
streaming in. The second act shows
an exterior scene with the cottage OF
SuzePs father on the left, the old-fash-
ioned well in the foreground, pretty
hedge row at the back, and garden
wall with creeping vines and flowers at
the right, the whole arched over with
towering trees.

Something the Administration Intends
to Do.

The expected happening at the i'm
promptu feast of the lupercal in Akron
last night did not take place for sun
dry reasons, says Cleveland dispatch
to the Enquirer. No kingly crown was
offered to General Dick, chairman OF
the State Republican committee, in the
shape Of a declaration by some prom
inent Republican in his favor as the
candidate for Senator or Governor
General Dick is too experienced n
hunter to take the field before the
game season opens OF his supply of am
munition is laid in.
That some of his enthusiastic friends
in Akron We're contemplating such a
step is known but they made the mis-
take Of touching Off their fireworks be-
fore the procession reached the re-
viewing stand. General Dick promptly
tabooed any demonstration Of the
character indicated, and gave out an
interview stating that he was a can
didate for neither Office. The only
reference to the promptly bottled up
affair was observed in the address
made by President Priest, Of Buchtcl
college, q gentleman who startled his
hearers by declaring that he had seen
nothing in politics but what was pure.
1t appears that this dominic was a
guest on the special train tnat went
from Akron to the opening of the
campaign at Youngstown, and be-
cause no one was thrown from the
cars and no shots fired during the trip
he arrived Mt the conclusion that the
politicians were as clcan as the preach
ers--and he said so in so many words,
His reference to the future of the
honored guest at the demonstration
was diplomatic to high degree. He
reviewed the upward journey of Mr..
Dick through forest of titles, be-
ginning with plain Charlie" and end
ing with "Major General" "Who
knows what is in store for this gentle,
man who is perennially changing his
tltles?" was the yelled but none the
less direct way Rev. Priest put the
matter to the crowd. The throng saw
the point, and cheered 1t right hearth
ly. That the learned gentleman's mind
was upon the bygone Julius and the
feast of the lupercal when "He did
thrice refuse kingly crown" was
shown when he asked of the Akron.
ians in the language of Shakespeare:
Upon what meat doth our Caesar
feed, that he hath grown so great?"
and he told them that II was not am
bltlon, but the milk of human kind,
ness.
The game this time will not require
the candidacy of Dick, who has
achieved n notable mark of'distinction
in outdolng even Garfield on the size
of majority in the Nineteenth district.
If Foraker Is to be taken into the
shambles this year II will be through
the rear door. Dick is not going To
steal the Hamilton county Senator's s
toga, nor will be buy one, as Hanna
did. 1t will have to be given TO him.
This, mind you, isn't saying that he
does not want 1t. That's another
story,
Aside from the Governorship and
the Senatorship the speech made by
Congressman Dick was more than sig,
nificant, 1t may be claimed that Gen.
eral Grosvenor is the mouthplece of
the Administration on the hcor of the
House of Representatives, but no one
has denied that Dick sometimes speaks
