coon RECORD OF THE CUUSTR At
TORNEY.

THE LEADER is pleased TO once more
call the attention of the Democrats
and Populists OF Logan county TO the
splendid record made by County At
torney E. w. Jones. Mr.. Jones is the
only candidate thus far announced to
come before the primaries and his
denomination meas his reelection.
The court expense for Logan county
for the past twelve months, ending the
last fiscal year, under Mr.. Jones ad-
misistrstion has reached but $4,000.
Never has this one item been lower
than el9, 500 in previous years and
from this figure it has run up into the
pictures under previous Administra-
tions. Not suit is pending against
the county, and not a judgment rem
dered. Under the present attorneys s
admins stration three times more crimi-
nails have been sentenced to the peni.
tentiary, than during the same period
of any other county attorney in Logar ,
and this county has always had able
attorneys filing this place The pres
ent county attorneys Office has stood
bravely for right, regardless of indi-
vidusls, and wrongdoers in places hig h
and low, have been found to be on
equal footing. The present attorney
has stopped the practice of the terri
torial treasurer taking interest on the
peoples money and directly through
his efforts. the present treasurer has
restored to the public fund $500 SO
earned. Mr.. Jones is courageous and
affable and his signal victory in 1898,
showed the estimation in which he is
held by the people. Ee has lived in
Logan county since April %, 1889, and
knows every man, woman and child in
the county. His nomination will be
followed by another rsllying of the
voters, who will return him to office
this fall unanimously.

CAPT. TAYLOR,s WORK.

In the election of James Jacobs for
national committeeman by the Okla
homa City convention, the factional
differences engendered at Ell Reno,
were finally buried.
In the interest OF harnony Capt.
John T. Taylor, of Logan county, en-
tered the race. 1t was not Capt. Tay-
lor's intention to make an aggressive
campaign and he endeared himself to
Democracy by keeping aloof from the
contending factions. The Jacobs COM
bination was impregnable and refused
to give in; the Sipes forces were
equally aggres sive and not until his
candidacy became em broiled in the con
gressional question did he withdraw
from the contest. Capt. Taylor in re-
naming in the race merely did so in
order to allow those who opposed both
factions to unite on harmonious
candidate. But it is difficult to break
com binations. The Logan county
delegation did its duty well, although
unjustly censuIed by other counties
Capt. Taylor has no censure for any
one and abides by Democracy's action
with loyal and praiseworthy spirit.
Capt. Taylor has proven his devotion
to coalition of all forces by his earn
est work as chairman of the county
committee. To him was due in a great
measure the getting together of Demo
Gratis and Populists, and his work was
performed in such manner that no
bitterness or rancor exist on either
SIDE.

without Police Aid.

ST. LOUIS. June 1.-THE predictions
that yesterday witnessed the beginning
OF the end OF the great street railway
strike were corroborated today when the
police department withdrew it's officers
from all the cars and power houses Of
the St Louis Transit Company and re-
turned them TO their regular beats. The
Transit Company continues to augment
its force OF nonunion men and its trans
portatsan facilities at a ratio that prom
ises TO see the system in full swing before
many more days have passed.
Much interest is being shown by the
general public In the coroners inquest at
present in progress over the bodies of
strikers and citizen killed last Sunday
by members OF the sheriffs posse comita-
tus The testimony adduced at todays
hearing does not deny that Deputy Sher-
IN Marsh shot Frederick Bohne, the citi
zen In question, but the witnesses disa-
greed az TO the deputy's provocation for
shooting. There was testimony from
about thirty-five witnesses, consuming
three hours. after which the jury returned
verdict of homicide. A sensational fea-
ture Of the inquest was the conflicting
statements made by witnesses as TO
whether Police Lieut.. Stack ordered the
deputy sheriifs to fire on the crowd. Sew
eral Of the deputies testified that he or
dered the posse guard to shoot. while
Stack declared he did all In his power to
prevent the deputies from firing.
The disappearance OF Deputy Sheriff
Marsh was a startling development at the
inquest. IL is believed that Marsh has
left the city. No further search will be
made for him, probably, unless friends
OF the dead man seek to prosecute him.

Of a stronger power. So men dwell upon
the weakness of the Tagal bandits who
with primitive weapons and half clad, are
persisting in an unequal conflict with the
vast power OF the United States. How
weak they are! And therefore how wick
ed 1t must be TO subdue them! The same
plea is once more put forth for the Beers
whom we have. OF course. no thought Of
wronging by chasing them with the Der
wishes and Tagals. The ccmmonest plea
In their behalf Is that they are few and
weak, and are fighting against a power
that is great in numbers and strong in
resources; wherefore they must be In tho
right.
Now. the fact IL hat such an argument
IL every whit as false as the former one.
which we have repudiated. To say that
the weaker party in a conflict Ia necessarily
in the right Just because he Is the weaker
ia as false and as unreasonable as to say
that the stronger party must DO In the
right because he Is the stranger. II
strength does not constitute right. neither
does lack OF strength. The fact Ia. right
and wrong are qualities entirely apart from
strength and weakness. They have no
more relation to them than a mans relig-
ion has to the color OF his hair. The big
gest and strongest nation in the world
and the aggressor. too in a conftct--may
he in the right. and the smalles. and weak
est. and the one against which the ag-
gression is directed. may be in the wrong.
That Is n fact which is not always kept IN
mind, but II Is nevertheless a fact. without
recognition of which there can be no just
judgment of the affairs of nations.

that might alone does not make right.

Some more or less arbitrary powers may

that makes might. and not might that

essence Of centuries of political and social
