The somewhat puzzling announce
ment comes to hand that at Venice
ILL.,. a plucky woman got rid Of cou.
pie Of "mashers" by firing revolver
at the ground close by the feet Of one
Of them. although she did MT hit
either Of them. We should really like
to know just how that could be. Ven
ice. we believe, is in me southwestern
part Of Illinois, near the Mississippi
river, and perhaps two hundred and
fifty miles from the Auditorium. It
must therefore be in about the 114th
ward Of Chicago; and in view Of the
immemorial repu.e Of Chicago feet,
how could a pistol be fired at the
ground close to a resident Of that city
without hitting his feet? Not even a
woman's proverbial accuracy Of aim
could reasonably account for It. Can
it be that the exigencies Of growth,
the necessity Of getting so many million
people on so many square miles Of
prairie, has compelled a reduction in
size of Chicagoans' pedal extremities?
Or was that entire Chicago foot story
nothing but st. Louis myth?

facts the nearly unanimous vote of

congress. with their nearly unanimous
vote against an amendment granting to
congress such powers, will rank as one
OF the most shameless exhibitions Of

VOICE OF OREGON FOR EXPAN-
SION.

Chicago Times-Herald.
The state and congressional election
III Oregon confirms the general forecast
concerning the attitude Of the Pacific
coast states toward the dominating is
sue Of the coming national campaign,
As the campaign in Oregon was Tough,
ON the new national issues that have
grown out OF the war with Spain the
verdict in Oregon may be regarded
as a decisive Endorsement Of the poll
cies Of the present national admlnistra-
,ion.
The voice of Oregon is for national
expansion. and there is little doubt that
Oregon speaks for the entire Pacific
coast. The head Of the state repub-
lican ticket has majority OF 10000.
and Congressman Moody and Tongue,
the republican representatives. are re-
turned by increased najorities. The
legislature is also safely republican.
lnsuring the election Of a republican to
succeed United States Senator Mcbride.
whose term expires next March.
In 1896. with the free coinage Of sill
yer as an issue, Oregon was regarded
as one of the doubtful states. but the
sound money ticket won by the narrow
plurality Of 2,117. In the state and con-
gresslonal contest Of 1898. however. the
plurality for the head OF the ticket
jumped to 1851 In that contest there
were three candidates on the ticket for
governor and four In each congressional.
district for representative. Tongues
plurality over the fusion candidate was
2,o37. but he failed Of a majority. while
Moody's plurality over the fusion can
didate in his district was 6.e57. but his
majority was only 1924 over all. This
year the populIsts and democrats ef-
fected a united front to their oppo-,
nents on the clear-cut issue Of expan-
sion.
Eastern and Southern democrats have
been clamoring for the relegation Of
the silver issue to the rear. They de-
mand that Bryan shall drop sixteen-to-
one and that imperialism and trusts
shall be the dominant issues.
The oregonlans have met the new is
sue Of expansion, which the Bryanites
call imperialism" The Pacific coast
is glad to drop silver and take UP an
issue that means vastly more to the
development and commercial future of
that country than any national issue
that has been raised in this country
for half a century or more.

DEMOCRATS AND TRUSTS.

A party without dependence upon
public esteem can face without much
grief a position Of dishonor. hoping
that it may even be more endeared to
the ignorant and to the vicious by its
demonstrated badness. Perhaps half
unconsciously. democratic leaders are
Just now chuckling over the idea that
they can pretend to be as hostile to
trusts as any other party. individuals
in either party WILL OF course. be
found in close relation with the monop-
oily or another The party must be
judged by its act as body, and If the
democrats voted against a constitu-
tional amendment ia the house they
can point to the fact that they voted
for bill protesting to reach the same
end. No matter how extravagant the
claim. it viii answer with voters who
do no thinking. as with those who
are always drawn into closer relations
with any party by proof that it secret
ly is at war with honesty, public de-
cency and civil order.
The democratic position is not. how
ever. so strong as some leaders sup
pose. BY far the greater part of the
opposition to corporate monopolies
throughout the country is thoroughly
honest. If really ignorant Of the con-
didons which make some corporations
as helpful as others are hurtful to the
public. Not only democratic leaders but
plain. everyday democratic voters have
sense enough to see that an amendment
granting power TO destroy vicious mo-
nopolies mas different meaning from
bill attempting to do the same thing
without grant of constitutional power.
II congress has ample power without
a constitutional amendment, then the
bill may have some virtue But If
Il has not. or has only insufficient
power. then voting for the impotent
bill and voting against the amendment
granting power is precisely the worst
thing Of which party could be guilty.
Now. the democrats who most strong
" opposed the amendment did so on
the plea that power TO deal with such
corporations belongs to the states. and
should not be given to the general
government. The ancient theory Of the
state rights was deliberately used as
a pretext for refusing to the Union the
power needed, and then the very same
party proceeded to vote for bill at
tempting to exercise such power with
out constitutional grant.
No end of pettifogging is possible
about the particular provisions Of the
bill and the amendment. But this is
one of the cases in which hair-splitting
distinctions betray insincerity. The
people can intrust to their general gov
ernment all the power they please to
protect them from abuse by corpora
tions which the states may create. The
amendment proposed to trust that pow
er fully to the Union. because injury
sustained by the people in one state
through the gain of corporation Gre
