THE CHARGE FALSE
Chairman Jones Not Connec-
ted With Any Trust.
He Says if Roosevelt Had Wanted to Inform
Himself, He Had Every Opportunity
of Doing So.
(By the Associated Press.)

Chicago, Ills. Oct. 13.-Chairman Jones
of the Democratic National Committee, re-
ferring to Governor Roosevelt's associa-
tion of MS name with "private owner
ship in trusts" said today:
ANY statement made by anybody that
I am in any way connected with or in
terested in any organization that is in
any sense a trust is absolutely untrue.
The charge made that the American Cot
ton Bale company is a trust was the Oc-
casion of a letter written by me, and pub
lished at the time, in which | stated the
facts Of my connection with that company.
The letter explains everything and was
published and extensively circulated. If
Mr.. Roosevelt had wanted to inform him
self, he had the opportunity of doing SO.
II he is q sincere man, he will not, after
reading that letter, make the statement
that the American Cotton Bale compan
is a trust. However, there is an old adage
that a lie we'll stuck to is good as the
truth"

FORTUNE sWATs THEM ALL.
Declares Republicans Haven't Enough Money
to Buy Him Of.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Especial to News and Discovery
Winston-Salem, N. c., Oct. ID. B.
Fortune, the independent Republican can
didate for Congress in this district, spoke
here today. He was severe in his de-
nunciation of Congressman Linney, Spen-
Ger Blackburn, candidate for Congress-,
and Judge Purnell, Of the Federal court.
The %insurgent Republicans of this coun-
ty endorse Fortunes candidacy, and have
opened district headquarters here for him.
They are sending out a vast amount Of
literature, including an address by For
tune, throughout the district, and are
confident their man will get q good vote,
which means the defeat of Blackburn.
Fortune stated today that he was in
this light to the finish, and that the Re
publicans did not have money enough to
buy him off.

ROWDIEs ANNOY ROOSEVELT.
Take Bryan's Name on Their Lips, Whereupon
Roosevelt Calls Them Bryan's Friends.
(By the Associated Press.)


Louisville, KY, Oct. 13.-Louisville to-
night gave Roosevelt an enthusiastic re-
ception, the program concluding with a
crowded meeting at the auditorium. This
was in contradistinction to the greeting
offered at Elizabethtown, the last stop
before the special reached this city At
that place. no sooner had the Governor
mounted the platform with General Buck
ner and other members of his party than
an attempt was made to break up the
meeting. Small boys carried Bryan ban
ners IN the outskirts of the crowd and
empty coal wagons were driven at full
speed through the square. The steam
whistle on a mill close by was blown loud
]y and half a hundred men or more shout
cd, "Hurrah for Bryan when the Cover
nor began speaking. But above the shrek
of the steam whistle rang the words: Il
call your attention to the attitude of Mr..
Bryan's friends on the subject of law
and order" Then he waved his hand to
the crowd and continued:
ct IS natural that the men who have
tried to deprive Kentucky of a free ballot
should be opposed to free speech. It is
not extraordinary that the men who have
stolen the GOvernorship and who seek to
steal it again should not dare hear the
truth Of history, but should seek to gag
an American citizen even before he had
uttered one word of his opinions in a poll
teal controversy"
This brought cheers and more Interrupt
tions, but Roosevelt spoke the full fifteen
minutes allotted to him.
Just q put up job to break up the meet
ing was his comment when he returned
to his car, 'but l guess l got back at

THE BIGGEST THIEF ON RECORD,

The New York papers are now print
ing a story which shows c~onclusively
that a thief in the employ of a bank
is much more to be dreaded than the
most expert craftsman on the outside.
The ease in point is the Schneider rob
berry Of the Elizabethport, On. j.
Banking Company. Schneider, a $75-a-
month clerk, succeeded in stealing an
amount equal not only to the banks
capital stock, but it's surplus besides.
that he stole the whole bank, right
under the eyes of those who were re-
CURED by the law to keep a watch
upon him.. And it nay be surmised
rectors, examiners, etc, too, if they
could have been handily converted in
to cash, for it appears hat as a matter
of fact, State Bank Examiner Stainsby
bethport banks affairs a few months
ago, found everything satisfactory and
complimented the officers upon the eX-
cellent showing. Nevertheless at that
very moment Schneider had already
stolen pretty nearly as much as the
banks capital stock.
Schreiber's methods were shrewd.

this system the general ledger and tint

wool over the eyes of the examines

Smiles on Quakers.

Greencastle, Ind, Oct. 12.-Governor
Roosevelt speaking at Plainfield, Ind, to-
day said:
Il undersiand that this community is
composed largely of members of the
Society of Friends who stand for sOcia,
and industrial virtue in a way that en-
titles them to the respect of all people.
| am glad to address the members of the
society that stood by President McKin-
ley and gave their influence toward inter
national arbitration at the peace confer
ence at The Hague. 1t is not possible
as yet. for We lave not advanced fal
enough to be able to settle all our diff
culties peaceably by arbitration, but in
every case we should avoid an appeal tt
arms where possible. We believe in be-
ing slow to enter upon war, but having
entered upon it we believe in carrying
it through. We believe we have a RICH,
sto appeal to all lovers of peace to stand
with us IN the Philippines"

AN INDEMNITY TO ITALY.

Washington, Oct. 13.-The President will
recommend to Congress the payment Of
an indemnity to the families of the four
Italians who were the victims of a mob

SOME FACTS ABOUT TRUSTS.

Mark Hanna declared that there
were not trusts. Senator SeWell, OF
New Jersey; Frye, of Maine, II
others took up the chorus y trusts
they are, like imperialism, a buga-
boo"
AS the late Mr.. Sherlock Holmes
would say, Lets see" Are there or
are there not huge combinations that
have destroyed competition, driven out
of business many firms and individ-
uals,fiXed their WI eNtOrtlOnate prices
which the public have been compelled
to pay, thrown thousands of workers
out of employment by shutting down
large manufacturing plants and fixed
their own rate of wages for those
they still retain in employment:
In another column we today reprint
from the Philadelphia Times some I'M
answerable proofs that there are such
combinations and that they have
multiplied as never before under the
protecting arm of the present Repub-
lean administration. The list con
tains only the names Of the corpora
tons with ten millions of capital and
upwards, chartered by the State Of
New Jersey alone since Mr.. Mckinley
became President. The aggregate cap
italization of this list of 1913 corpora
tons reaches the astonishing sum Of
s 3,622, O25, 900, or more than three times
the total national debt and twice the
amount Of gold, silver and paper eur
rency in the country.
Every voter should, in the interest
Of political truth and equity, give this
article a careful perusal and then de-
eide for himself whether Mark Han
mas fiippant assertion that there are
no trusts" is true. The list of New
Jersey charters which are given in de-
tail, with the date of incorporation
and the authorized capital of each,
astounding as it is in its total capital
ization, represents only a fraction OF
the trust organizations Of the country
Delaware, West Virginia, California
and other States with easy corpora.
ton laws are turning out new trus1
charters almost daily and the entire
trust capitalization of the country
probably aggregates ten billions in
stead of the three and one-half billions
shown py the New Jersey charters is
sued since Mckinley became Presi
dent.
The honest seeker for truth Will fine
that not one of these vast combina
tic rs calls itself q trust, and therein
lies the only grain of truth in Han
mas statement. But what matters i
to the man that is being mashed t.
death, whether it is a trip hamme
or a compress that's doing it. The re
suit is the same These combination
may not be called trusts but thei
power of eXtortion is none the les
great for that. The popular interes
in the %stupendous figures given lies il
the hard fact that seventy-fve mil
lions of American people must, b.
hook or by crook, pay the dividend
upon the enormous trust capital, an'
that a little handful of trust share
owners get the dividends. The trust
levy their rake off upon the food
drink, clothing, furniture, literature
education, recreation and religion Q
the masses of the people and Republi
can legislation and Republican official
and politicians help to make the exto1
ton possible.
Under such conditions it is hard t
see how any man can hesitate as t
how lie will east his ballot in the elet
ton next month.
