With not single prospect pleasing. and
man. as always. vile. he yet puts himself
at the head of his hosts and girds up his
loins for battle. He takes punishment with
composure. and Is SCARED from head to
heel A humping more or less no longer
counts with him. But he had his little
rcvenges yesterday. He wrote the plat
form adopted. and observe this:
These trusts and combinations are the
direct outgrowth of the policy Of the re-
publican party, which has created, fostered
and protected them. 1t receives their sup
port and solicits and accepts their prodi-
gal contributions to aid its retention In
power. and 1t is therefore incapacitated and
unwilling to abolish and destroy them. or
even to properly regulate and restrict them.
The necessary relief by legislation or other
wise for the correction of these evils can
only be secured from the opponents OF
these trusts and not from their tools, as
sociates and apologtsts.
Two of Mr.. Hills colleagues in the New
York delegation are Richard Croker and
Augustus Van Wyck, and both have their
pockets stuffed with American ice trust
stock. AS tools and associates of trusts
they shining lights.
Mr.. Hill was hardly so happy in this rap
at the republican party:
Having obtained power upon the prom
Use that it intended to legislate for the
country instead of party. it Immediately
proceeded to enact a high protective and
partisan tariff law which protected the
rich and oppressed the poor - which
strengthened monopolies and injured the
interests of labor-which increased the peo-
pies burdens instead of relieving them.
The Dingey bill thus denounced was en-
acted in place of the Gorman-Wilson BILL
which Mr.. Hill even more bitterly de-
nounced. and which he had the courage TO
vote against.
All things considered yesterday was a
very good day for Mr.. Bryan and all he
represents.

There was not politician of experience
on either side Of the chamber who did not
enjoy quiet little inward chuckle at the
exchange of compliments in the Senate yes
ter,iay on the subject Of campaign con-
tributions and trusts. 1t is of course the
most arrant humbug for anybody to assert
that the trusts are all on one side of the
political fence. and are marshaled in cam
paign years TO the support of one party.
That is fatty contradcted by well-known
curft ssions and by facts. We all remember
what Mr.. Havemeyer admitted in his serene
way when on the witness stand here in
congressional investigation few years ago.
We likewise as readily remember the spec
tacle presented here at the time the Cor
man Wilson tariff bill was passing through
Congress.
If ever there was a presidential campaign
waged on lines calculated to arouse all
great business interests the campaign of
1St'2 was OF that nature. The tariff plank
OF the democratic platform carried dis
tinct challenge TO all protected industries.
and as interpreted by that party's orators
on the stump became positive menace to
business. The republicans. usual, prom
ised protection, and sought to recommend
themselves in that way TO the support of
invested capital and all of its connections.
The democrats won, and when the new
Congress met and began the promised re-
vision of the tariff the corridors of the
Capitol were soon thronged with represent
tatives Of the leading American corpora
tons. just IS at former times, when re-
vision was in the hands of the republicans.
Nor did these representatives wear the as
pect Of men without hope. They held their
heads up. and carried themselves as men
who had a right to be present. And many
Of them secured substantial recognition in
the bill The sugar trust undoubtedly did,
for the sugar schedule adopted was 50 IA
vorable to the trust that scandal result
ed. And growing out Of that scandal was
the amiable statement of Mr.. Havemeyer
that the trust had politics, but was
sweet, so to speak, on both parties, and
made campaign contributions to both.
a great many thoughtful and patriotic
men deplore the use of SO much money in
political campaigns. and fear that the
amount grows from year to year. They
would be glad to see a check put upon the
practice. But they are not deceived as TO
the responsibility. They divide ii between
the two parties. If one happens to get the
better of the other in the matter of collec-
tons it is only because of using the greater
Industry. Both go after all they need and
can reach.

Sum mer Caution.

There's something in the sultriness
OF June, despite It's roses,
Which moves the soul to angry stress,
The quickening warmth discloses
A tendency to break each rule
And somehow start a riot.
But, brother. if We can't keep cool,
We can at least keep quiet.
There is some prowling microbe who
Each good intention skaters;
He makes our dispositions blue;
Our tempers fall to tatters.
The sun himself We cannot fool;
'Twere folly, sure. to try 1t.
But. brother. if we can't keep cool,
We can at least keep quiet.
