She should have had page in Burke's
Peerage, and at least a chapter in the
Almanac de Gotha. But she was so naive
and pleasant about it, and apologized in
such a profuse fashion when her mistake
was made clear that all felt like clubbing
together and presenting her with "a crest.
She drove up to a prominent 5ewelry es-
tablishment, not far from Twelfth and
Chestnut streets. There was q light of set

The clerk looked doubtful for an instant
and then his hesitation was overcome by
her assurance, and he FASTENED to lay be-

forgotten what her own crest looked like

ciates all the points of nicely that

Governor Roosevelt is stumping
against the trusts in certain States of
the West where the people do not agree
with Mark Hanna about there being no
such thing as trusts. But the New
York papers are calling on Teddy to
return to Albany, he having been alb
sent from the executive Office for four
months, and take up the antitrust
work awaiting him there. Roosevelt
does not respond. The trusts are all
powerful in New York and constitute
the right wing of the Republican army.
He can talk againSx them in the West,
but not act against them when they are
in issue and his official duties require
decisive action. It is one of the ways
the Republicans protect the trusts.

TARIFF ROBBERY.

When American manufacturers can
afford to send goods out of the United
States and sell them in foreign coun-
tries at lower prices than the same
goods are sold for where they are pro-
duced, blind man can see that such
manufacturers need no protective tariff
to keep them alive.
But if 1t looks bad to undersell the
foreigner at the expenses Of the home
consumer, what must be thought of a
tariff system which allows American
goods to be shipped to foreign lands
and then retransported to the States
and sold at lower price than the same
goods would cost if bought direct from
the home manufacturer
The tariff is species of robbery. and
the trusts are the chief benefciaries.

The New York commercial bodies are

They Deny the Statements Attributed
to Wheeler by Roosevelt.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Oct. 10. - The
friends of General Joseph Wheeler are
busily engaged in writing letters max
ing a general denial of the statements of
Governor Roosevelt and otherRepublioan
politicians to the effect that he is with
Mckinley and backing up the Mckinley
administration. The statement is made
that while on q visit to Alabama Gen.
eral Wheeler made a speech in which
he Landed up the Mckinley administra-
ton, This is the cause of the great in
dignation among the generals friends.
Letters have been written to the gen.
eral by people who heard him make the
speech at Florence, Ala, In which the
statement is made, in strong terms, that
no reference whatever was made to pol
itics or anything bearing on politics,
aud that no political deductions were
possible. People who heard the speech
do not hesitate in denying that General
Wheeler has ever uttered word since
his retirement from the army that could
be inferred as placing him in any other
party except with the Democratic party.

An ambition to work for a living
threatens to become epidemic among
the sons of rich men. Two of the Van
derbilts are now hard at it-one as a
locomotive builder and the other as a
clerk; one of Richard Croker's sons is
learning the blacksmith's trade, and
now Bertram Bell, son of a wealthy
New York capitalist, is earning $3.50 a
day in surveying party out West.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has just contracted for 10000 tons of
steel rails. The Seaboard Air Line has
purchased 10, 900 tons and the Great
Southern & Western Railroad of Ire
land has sent an agent to the United
States to buy 5000 tons. These pur-
chases, especially at the prevailing
prices, indicate that the domestic rail-
roads are prospecting and that foreign
roads find it profitable to buy rails in
this country.
