In great headlines the daily press tells
us that the Standard Oil company has
been knocked out in Texas, the United
States supreme court having sustained
the decision Of the state court barring
it from doing business in the state as an
illegal concern. All of which may sound
very we'll. But, my dear reader, let me
ask you few pertinent questions that
may throw some light on the matter.
The Standard OIL company has a prac-
tical monopoly in this country. Now, if
it is barred from doing business in
Texas, where are the Texas people going
to get oil? Must they go back to tallow
candles? Must the machinery of the
state rust for want of lubricants7 Don't
you see where the people are left by this
decision? There will be howl against
extortion. II the government which
drives out the monopoly does not at the
same time provide the people with facil-
tiles to get oil, it will be doing them an
injury instead of benefit. But such is

make who have never studied the SCI
ence of society-socialism. I will ven
ture that the Standard will continue 10
sell oil in Texas, and extort from the
people more than they have in the past.
The United States government can pro-
duce and distribute oil In Texas at
cent a gallon, and not lose money, if it
will monopolize the business and trans
portation facilities. The statements of
the oil company furnish evidence to this
effect.-Appeal to Reason.

A GREAT EXHIBITION.

Regarding Pains Battle of San Juan" which will be seen in this ciey in d day or two, the san Francisco call made he following comment on ths cx- hibitiCn presented in san Francisco:
 Flight thousand people who wit messed Pains military spectac!a, the battle of San Juan, last night ct Six ternt'c and Folsom streets, pronounced it d magnificent production in every de- tail. The battle scene was extremely realistic ard the various incidents were followed with intense interest. The crOwning event. when the Spanish soldiers surrendered their arms % rhcir American antagonists, quite qulckened the patriotic pulse of the multitude. Applause and cheers were frequent throughout the interesting perform ance. to present which successfully re- quires the services of 700 people.
 "The entire southern side of the big lot Is taken up with huge scenery, de- pictlng San Juan Hill in the center with the several block-houses and the tents of the Spanish officers on either side. The reveille is sounded and rein forcements march in. The field nos pital, with two Sisters of Charity. is shown, together with the burial of soldier and the salute over his grave After the arrival of General Lima res sports of camp life are enjoyed until the arrival of a courier with news of the intended attack by the Americans The Spanish troops get ready and ar" attacked by the American force, which storms the outposts and captures tho block-house on the hill. Then follows d terrific bombardpent and cannonading which lasts several minutes. After d hand-tO-hand encounter following the charge of the Americans up the hill the Spaniards surrender to the tune of Dixie played by the park band.
 "The grand fireworks display, which follows the battle, Is not the least in teresting feature of the production. Some fine bombs and rockets were fired. and the management demon- strated that it had fireworks to burn Great numbers of colored aerolites, shells, aerial novelties, showers and canopies were sent skyward and pro- voked the admiration of the spectators The salvo of repeating shells, opening red, changing to white and finishing blue, was a faVOrite one with the crowd. The set pieces included a tra- peze performer in colors, who went through all the evolutions, and DOT traits of Mckinley and Roosevelt, which were roundly cheered.
 "There will be no performance to- right, but tomorrow night extra tca- lures will be added in honor of Labor Day"

Bryan's TRADE Of Despair.

IF the election We're held today.
there is no doubt that we would have a
majority in the electoral college and
on the popular vote. But the Repub-
lican managers are now collecting from
the monopolies a large campaign fund.
They will buy every vote that can be
bought. They will coerce every vote
that can be coerced. They will intimi-
date every laboring man who can be
intimidated. They will bride every
election judge that can be bribed. They
will corrupt every court that can be
corrupted
This furious TRADE fell from the lips
of William J. Bryan. a few days ago.
at Salem. Ill. 1t is the cry of despair
uttered by the political demagogue
who feels the chill shadow of the COM
ing eclipse. For a presidential candi-
date to utter such abuse and rant is
beyond all precedent, but il is simply
in line with his usual course OF at
tempting TO array class against class,
to arouse the forces of violence and
revolution. Such talk is in line with
his declaration in Wisconsin, last
week, that the government is building
forts near the large cities in order that
il may have troops ready TO put down
any attempt of labor TO assert its
rights. And after such incendiary, dis
gushing utterances he deplores the ex-
hibition of mob violence made by his
followers in Victor and in Chicago,
Every intelligent man knows that the
words of Mr.. Bryan are not only reck-
less but also without the semblance of
truth. Republican overconfidence. as
all know, has prevented the national
committee from collecting even a fair
sized fund for the legitimate expenses
of the campaign. The talk OF stealing
elections i'll becomes the leader of the
party whose methods of bribery. CO.
ercion, intimidation and corruption in
New York city and in the South have
never been parelleled in politics and
are a foul blot upon American civiliza-
ton. Such a vicious TRADE only re-
veals the despair of the defeated poll
tician. Its demagogic appeal to the
reckless elements of society merits and
will receive the emphatic rebuke of the
American people.

Democracy's Issues Wear Thin.

In his speech at Chicago. Saturday,
Governor Roosevelt made two telling
epigrams which will bother Demo
cratic campaign speakers from now
until the polls close, November 6. He
is too earnest a speaker to devote him
self to mere phrasemaking, but these
two utteranceS are true epigrams and
their sting will be felt deeply. The
first of these was: We are for the
gold standard here and We We're for the
gold standard in Denver and the
issues do not wear thin anywhere in
the country" Again, answering
Bryan's assertion that prosperity was
due TO Providence, not to the Republi-
can party, he said: Il am perfectly
willing to admit that there was fusion
between Providence and the Republi-
can party. The Democracy has fused
with about everything else, but it has
never yet managed to make connec-
tions with Providence
The present day Democracy is SO
! heterogeneous in character and its des-
perate struggle for votes is SO regard
