The Trust Question.

The trust question receives the atten-
ton of the president and he SAYS:
1T is apparent that uniformity Of legis-
laton upon this subject in the several
states is much TO he desired. 1t is to be
hoped that such uniformity. founded In a
wise and just discrimination between what
is injurious and what is useful and neces-
sary in business operations, fnqy be OBJ
tanned, and that means may be found for
the congress, within the limitations of its
constitutional power 30 TO supplement an
effective code of state legislation as to
make a complete system of laws through
out the United States adequate to compel
general observance of the salutary rules
to which | have referred.
"The whole question is so important and

Will be lightly considered, but avery phase
of it will have the studied deliberation of

action.

injurious, and which are within federal
jurisdiction, should be promptly applied
by the congress"
The Philippines.
Considerable attention is given the sub

Alliance, Aug. 25.-A strange phe-
nomenon occurred here during heavy
electrical storm Just before daylight.
A flash Of lightning entered the net
work Of telephone, telegraph and street
railway wires which hang about the
city and produced a wonderful display
Of various colored lights, which for
several seconds illuminated the streets
in the most weird and startling man
ner.
The sight was accompanied by ter
rife Kissing sound which reused hun
dreds from their slumbers.
The H. ]. Roach tailoring store was
damaged by the bolt. The residence
Of Mrs. Annie Ripley was shattered.
Mrs. Amanda Tullis was severely
shocked by a stroke Of lightning which

CONGRESS In DANGER.
Democrats Expected to Make In
roads In Ohio Dis
trictS,

Columbus, Aug. 4.-The Republicans
feel alarmed over the congressional
outlook in Ohio. 1t Is felt by some
leaders that there Is more or less danger
of losing five districts to the Demo-
Gratis this fall, with possible gain Of
but one. Now the Republicans have all
but the third, fourth, fifth, twelfth,
thirteenth and seventeenth districts.
Owing to the deal between the anti
lDowling Democrats of Montgomery
county and the Republicans there is
hope of the Republicans electing Bob
Nevin in that district. AS against this
possible gain the Republicans may lose
Van Voorhis, Grosvenor, Southard,
Skyles and Beidler. There is OPPOSE
tion to Van Voohis among the Repub-
licans of Washington county; the or
ganization in Meigs county is anti
Grosvenor; the Democrats will probably
not nominate in the Toledo district,
giving Jones, non-partisan, splendid
chance to defeat Southard.
Lorain county Republicans are sulk-
ing because Richland county has been
hogging all the congressman of late,
and this endangers Skyles. In Medina
and Lake counties there is determin-
ationAamong certain Republicans to run
Cong g5essman Phillips Independently
against Beidler, who defeated Phillips
in the convention. 1t Is admitted here
in Republican circles that the situation
in the Toledo district Is not the bright
est, but still with heavy plurality to
go on the leaders are certain that
Southard will pull through.

EXTRA SESSION
Is to Be StudiOusly Avoided as
the Congressman Do
Not Want 1t.

[News-Democrat Leased Wire Service. I
Washington. Aug. 25.-Many months,
perhaps years, will be required to place
the political and financial affairs of
China on firm basis. AS to the part
the United States will take in the work,
the administration has arrived at no
decision. 1t mas been hoped that with
the rescue Of the legationers a clear
way would be found to secure peace.
Instead, developments in affairs reveal
new complications. Beyond every hill
surmounted by the allies there lie
other hills. 1t has, of course, been inn
possible to frame a complete policy,
because the conditions We're unique
and developments could not be fore
seen. 1t is the present intention Of the
president, however, to deal with events
as they occur and leave congress to
settle the matter in December. The
president Is opposed to any extra ses-
sion of congress and so are the men,
bers of that body who have been con-
suited. Most of them are candidates
for reelection and do not want an ex-
ira session injected into the campaign.
For that reason 1t is belived that moth
ing short Of an open war or disorders
that would raise the question of send
ing an army would cause the president
to summon congress-

MAY NOT SPEAK.
Building Council at Chicago
Trying to Induce Roosevelt
Not to Speak There.

[News-Democrat Leased Wire Service. j
Chicago, August 25.-Members of the
building contractors council are quietly
at work to induce Governor Roosevelt
not to speak at the coming Labor Day
celebration of the Building Trades
Council. There is said to be some re-
sentiment on the part of the contractors
toward number of those who have ac-
cepted invitations to speak, because
such acceptance may be construed as
an endorsement of the position of the
Central Labor organization in the pend
ing trouble and the condemnation Of
the course Of the contractors.
Although it Is not believed that Gov
ernor Roosevelt will cancel his engage
ment for the occasion, yet the con-
tractors have sent him a statement
making clear their side of the con-
troversy now raging.

declare that the party is made up of
the ruling classes Of the country. They
say that Bryan's followers are the
poor, the outcast, the laborer, the pub
lican and the sinner. Grant that. So
were the followers of Him of Gethse-
name. And He is today the light of
the world.
"They plead a tariff to protect our
industries. I say that the tariff blights
the country and robs the poor man to
make the rich man richer. The Nc
Kinley protective tariff has produced
a trust ridden country, and we will
not be free Of trusts until it is done
away with.
"The leaders Of the Republican party
declare that only in them is the saliva
tion of the country. I say they are
largely demagogues, spoilsmen, cheap
politicians without a noble thought or
pure aspiration. They are the blind
which seek to lead other blind.
BRYAN's MOVE.
"They declare the silver issue the
dominant one. That Is nonsense. The
silver issue Is dead and buried, and
even If 1t were not, 1t only touches
dollars, while in this campaign we have
to do with souls.
"They say the Filipinos are incapa-
BILE Of self-government. say they are
better able to govern themselves than
the Cuban or the Porto Rican, or the
Mexican.
"They point to the fact that Bryan
consented to the Spanish treaty. We
know he did, but we also know why he
did it. 1t was to put speedy end to the
war"
In conclusion General Beatty declares
that after lifetime spent in defense
Of the principles which Colonel Bryan
and the Democratic platform have
enunciated, he is not to be driven from
their support by the fact that the party
with which he always affiliated is wrong
on every one of them.

LACKS SINCERITY.
Former President CisnerOs
Talks of a Visit to Presi.
dent Mckinley.

New York, August 24.-Senor Sal
vador de Cisneros, former president of
Cuba, says that he came to this country
on three important missions in behalf
Of the little republic about to be born
in the South
He fulfilled one of these missions
when he presented to President McKin-
ley last Saturday the petition demand
ing the immediate independence of
Cuba.
Another mission Of the venerable
statesman, who has been called by his
countrymen both the Cayour and the
Victor Emmanuel of Cuba, is to as
certain the sentiment of the American
people toward the Cuban struggle for
freedom.
MKINLEY NOT SINCERE.
Senior Cisneros believes that the
majority of the people Of this country
want Cuba to be free at once. 1t is
because of this sentiment, he says, that
President Mckinley called the consti-
tutional convention to meet immediate
ly before the election, so that the re-
suit IL fatal to Cuban independence may
not affect disastrously the Republican
vote.
I'm Cuba" continued Senior Cisneros
"the men who fought and the women
who suffered in the cause of independ-
ence fear that the administration at
Washington Is not altogether sincere
in its professed desire to see Cuba free
and Independent.
SMALL ARMY SUFFICIENT.
1--WE are opposed to a standing army
or the creation Of large fleet, be-
lieving that the money expended on war
material can be better employed in the
development of the great resources of
our island. We want peace, but with
peace independence"
Senior Cisneros said that the chief OBJ
lection Of his countrymen to Bishop
Sharretti is his prediction for every
thing Spanish and opposition to every
thing Cuban.
Another objection to Sherretti. he
said, is that 1t is believed that he Is
trying to sell the property If
the Cuban church against the wishes
of the native clergy and laity.

H. s. Mckinley. wife of wealthy
farmer living IL miles east of here.
Half an hour later the husband found
her dead on a couch. with an empty
carbolic acid bottle by her side.
Mr.. Mckinley was to have had a

and made good her threat to kill herself
rather than leave the homestead.
The sale has been declared of. and
the funeral will occur on the date OF
