HANNA WAS TRAPPED.
From st. Louis Republic. ]

EAOhA ~ A@CaAo ANSRNcAA~sl
Hanna's explanation of his passage in
his Chicago speech, "There is not a
trust in the entire Emitted States" tells
the people much. Observers were won
dering how a man of Hanna's political
discernment could have committed the
indiscretion Of publicly announcing his
tolerance of the trust evil.
They could not reconcile this frank
ness with the equivocation contained in
the platform framed under his direction
at.Philadelphia.
Hanna's explanation shows that he
did not intend his Chicago speech TO be
a public utterance. He was speaking
TO what he supposed was a united gath
ering of trust operators. He was asking
them for contributions to the campaign
fund.
"There was not a reporter present, "
says Hanna. "How could they know
what l saidy"
The gathering that Hanna addressed
was not as close as Hanna supposed.
His speech escaped and has given the
public clear insight 10 the duplicity Of
the great politician.

THE Philadelphia Record observes !:
1.-THE slump IN the Republican MAORI
ties in Maine and Vermont affords an
indication of Republican losses in close
Congressional districts throughout the
country. With Democratic House of
Representatives every department Of
government would be strictly within
the grooves of the Constitution and
laws. This is what makes the elections
for Congress the most important of all
elections.
