Kruger In Europe

Washington, Nov. 1.-TWO Of tn.
three hours that today's Cabinet ses-
sion lasted were occupied In dis
cuss'ou OF foreign affair, neceesitated
In part by the fact that the Presi-
dent intends to exhaustively trear
on this subject in his forthcoming
message TO Congress. Reference Wa.
made 10 the expressions In PORTIONS
OF the Eur r'pean press that the Unit
Ell States policy regarding China
would undergo marked change .ui-
mediately after the election and IL
is au horitativeiy announced that
after most exhaustive review OF
every step of the Chinese difficulty.
from It's Inception up 10 the present
moment, delivered by Secretary
Hay, the Cabinet ratified every de-
TAI and moreover unanimously eX-
pressed its Judgment that the policy
so far pursued should be continued
without change to its logical COLI
ciusiOn.
Accordingly, the present legat ION
guard at Pekin will be maintained
and such troops a. yet remain 10 b,.
Withdrawn, according to the original
program, will be shipped to Manila
With tins addition to his force, Cen
tral Macarthur is expected to renew
the campaign against The rebelliouS
FilipinOs with the greatest energy.
Administration officials here think
that as soon as the result of the .lec-
ton becomes known throughout the
Philippines, the resistance to the
authority of the United States will
be overcome.
BnthavllIe, South Africa, Nov. 8.
There has been heavy fighting

''The difficulties surrounding Great
Britain are SO great that the Beers
are convinced they will finally gain
The upper hand. We hav.. tn. great
est confidence in the Journey OF the
President who in spite of his great
age and fatigue will travel across
Europe. He only decided to come
because he has in his possession a
very etficacious means Of action"

How She Gave Him Her Pocket
Book.
Kansas City Journal.

Kansas City Journal.
1t thappened out on a suburban
boulevard last Saturday night and
the heroine is an athletic girl out
Of a nigh school only year. The
girl was returning to her home q
little later an is customary for
young women 10 be on the streets,
and hen she was within a block
of her house n man sprang out from
b hind tree and demanded her
pocketbook. Upon the girl's he>i-
tatlon 10 give up her money the
man stepped nearer and grOwi. d:
"Hand me your pocketbook, and
be quick about 1t and don't make
| any FUSS
Now the pockp ptbook that the girl
carr ed WAS the kind that has a
strap which slips over the Ownrr's
hand and when it ls worn it lies
over he back OF the fingers.
Wh-n the man made second
demand for the pocketbook the girl
stepp d close to him and 'nand-d
it to him, but not in the manner
expected. She just landed one on
the jaw with the hand that carri. d
the pocket book The leather spr.a
out over the little fist, and, as there
was considerable silver in it, the
blow was vicious. The robber went
down in heap.
He wa on his feet in second
and came back at the g,rl with q
look OF the greatest surprise on his
face.
"Hsnd ma that pocketbook," he
growled
"All right" answered the girl, b,
striking him again on the side OF
the jaw This time the man did
not get up SO quickly, but lay a
moment groaning on the ground
This was the advantage the glrl
was looking for, aud she took to
her heels and was soon within her
own home. And here follows anOth
er part of this true tale. When she
few through the doors Of her home
and was met by her mother and
sisters this strange girl didn't faint
but she just sat down and laughed
a loud ringing, wholesome laugh
aud made light Of her adventure
thus further shattering the tradi'
tions Of her sex.

As under the Craig act corporation.

all such operations. Individual.
may reduce prices at will, but when
corporations Grated solely by the
State u-s their powers against the
public Interest, 1t can be made Cause
TOR withdrr" Ing tho-s powers.
Beside the evils from trusts al
ready enumerated, there are these
well worthy Of your attention: /.
Under normal aud just condition
Oh anairs, the protils OF the producer
oi the raw material, Of the small
manufacturer and small dealer, and
the sums -sved To the consumer by
the lower ptico TO them where there
l. cpmpeti lon-aii these SUMS stay
here and their accumulation viii
make the State rich. Under truat
rule all these pr.,hts are accumulated
IL few hand. and are steadily car
rled out Of the State To our per1ua-
nent npOverishment.
z. The owners Of the vast sccufn
ulations Of the Illegal concerns, oper-
ating under the prohibition of both
state and Federal statutes, require.
to he protected against the penaltie,
denounced by these statutes. To
that end portions of the amounts
illegally levied by these modern
DICK Turpins on the public are set
aside for the purchase or control of
newspapers, for donations to educa-
tionai institutions which -hall In
doctrlnate our youth with senti-
mrnts OF the beauty and holiness OF
trusts and the lib -rality of trust
lnagnates, and II the debauching OF
elections aud the manipulation of
legislatures aud Congresses through
lobbyists and other well known and
reprehen-ible methods. They are
thus cancer On the body polite.
These and other evils are known
to every one. They are like the sun,
but only In that none can fail to zee
them. No one denies the existence
OF these evils or apologies for them
save those whose who are employed
by the trusts or who are In some way
favored or controlled by them. Pub
lie sentiment and the public intere-t
are az ,inst them. But The trusts
survive and prosper. The people of
the State can put an end to them.
Will they do it? Shall it be said of
our people as Of the allied armies Of
1874, "Iou can do everything and
you attempt nothing"
The British Government ofI776
in this country stood for pIutocracy.
The Wings fthat day, led by Wash
ington, Adams, Jefferson and Others.
stood for government of men and
conquered The trusts of this dav
are revival of the Tories of 1876
and stand for a government by the
mOnied classes. Are we weaker
than our 1Orefathers? They won
the right Of self-government for us.
Shall we lose it? Shall we permit
the real centre of government to go
back again to the money centres OF
London and New York? You say
no, thousand times no. Continue
your agitation. Let the truth of the
present condition ofatfairs get to the
masses of our countrymen, let them
understand tnat the termination of
the evils that sorely afflict us will
come when they shall really will it,
and the trusts and ali like evils that
now overcome us will disappear like
mists before the rising sun of the
peoples sovereignty.
