is said now by men we'll versed in
the lore of shoe machinery that the
United Machinery Company has
better things pigeon-holed than it
has in practical operation.
"This company has been recent
.ly threatened with strong opposi.
ton, but up to this time the oppo-
sition has not been able to get it's
various systems perfected, and the
United Machinery Company real
ICES that now is the time to strike a
decided blow if they expect to
keep and perpetuate their monopo-
ly. Hence at this time they are
sending out these leases, which
they hope will bind the manufac-
turers to them and Danish all hope
of any practical rival.
1.-THE secure control of all the
shoe machinery by one corporation
is the first stepping stone to a shoe
trust, for without modern machin-
cry no manufacturer can compete
in the shoe business.
ut is reasonable to suppose that
as soon as this is accomplished the
next move will be the consolidation
of the leading shoe factories with
the United Machinery Company
and possibly the leather trusts in a
gigantic shoe, leather and machin-
cry trust. To those who do not OBJ
serve tho rapid march of events
this may not seem possible, but the
high-handed demands of this ma
chinery company leaves very little
doubt that any ambitious scheme
along THE line would be beyond
them.
This monopoly affects Cincin,
natl more than any other city in
the Union, as Cincinnati is the
largest center for the manufacture
of ladies' shoes in the world"

Labor is For Isryan.

A special dispatch from Chicago
TO the New York World, giving an
account of the Labor Day demon
stration Monday. says:
Ten thousand spectators and
an industrial army marching under
banners of peace saw the Governor
of New York shake hands repeat
eddy with William j. Bryan, slap
him on the shoulder and oongratu-
late him on the friends he hed
made.
This occurred twice when march
ers yelled "Hurrah for Teddyl
He's all right But we are going
to vote for Bryan"
Bryan, not to be outdone in good
fellowship, waited until genuine
Roosevelt enthusiast gave voice tc
his preference, whom, turning, he
grasped the hand of the Governor
and congratulated him.
The scene was the balcony of the
Auditorium Hotel, whore Roose
welt, Bryan, Carter Harrison, Also
huler democratic candidate fol
Governor), and Yates (Republi
can candidate for Governor), re,
viewed the labor parade.
The lake front was packed blacl
with thousands, almost all, if cheer
ing could be taken rs an indioa
ton, friends of Bryan. 1t WAS EN-
barrassing to the Republicans, 70
the cheering was continual.

ne. BrYan on tne stump.

Pittsburg Post
Mr.. Bryan made one of his
strongest speeches of this campaign
at South Bend, Ind, on Saturday
There was an immense attendance
and, as at all places where he speaks,
there was great display of enthus-
.iasm for the man and the prinoi-
pies he stands for AS he pro-
crosses in the campaign MIR. Bryan
gives additional emphasis TO the
paramount issues of the campaign
He is particularly happy in draw
ing comparison between the Dem
ocratic expansion favored by Jeffer-
son and other Democratic Presi-
dents and the spurious article of
imperialistic conquest and subju-
CATION championed by Mckinley
and the military party, an influence
that has become SO strong in this
country. The idea of comparing
Jefferson's great achievement of
securing the territory west of the
Mississippi, or separated from the
old States by only an imaginary
| line of latitude that child may
step across, with the absorption by
conquest of Asiatic countries dis
tant from our shores by eight or
ten thousand miles and peopled by
an alien race is the extreme of alb
surdity. What Jefferson and 9th
er Democratic Presidents acquired
has been made into twenty States
and is peopled by 100000 Amer
loan citizens, constituting one OF
the most important and prosperous
sections of the American Union
Who in his widest partisan imag
inings can picture such n future
for the Philippines? Our asser-
ton of authority in those islands is
in contempt of the principles OF
jefferson laid down in the Declar-
alton of Independence, which were
the ruling principles [ f tho Ameri-
can people until Mckinley set tic
work to destroy them. This argu.
mont is the principal one of Mr.
Bryan's speeches, 1t involves the
future of the country and the main.
tenance OF true American princi.
Piles of government We cannot
have both subjects and citizens un-
der our form of government.
This week Mr.. Bryan will make
several speeches in West Virginia
and his efforts will stimulate the
patriotic people of the Mountain
State to their best efforts to carry
the State in November. The pros.
poets are now very good that they
will be able to do So The Domoc
raoy is thoroughly united, their or
ganization is better than for years
and the candidates strong in the
favor of the people.

Springfield, Mass, Republican.
The correspondent of leading
New York paper bounded in up
on Mr.. Bryan in Lincoln the
othor evening and pumped ten
questions at him, most of which
were direct inquiries as to what he
would do concerning the finances
of the government in case he were
chosen President To each ques-
ton Mr.. Bryan suavely replied:
81 will discuss public questions
in my own way aud in my own
time" And that was all the salts
faction the visitor extracted from
Mr.. Bryan, Tho purpose of such
tactics is apparent. BY entrap'
ping Mr. Bryan into n detailed
discussion of financial questions
tho hope was to push the silver is
sue to the front again. The Incl.
dent shows how desperate the Re-
publicans are in their efforts TO
ignore the issue of imperialism and
keep the attention of the country
upon an old issue in which the
people have lost their interest.

THE TRUSTS cINCH

"In their new leases they stipu-
late that the lessees shall perform
no operation with any of their ma
chimes upon work which comes
from machine made by an out
side company. In case the manu-
facturer should do this he forfeits
his lease and is liable to have all
the United machines taken out of
his factory It will thus be seen
that the manufactures has no
choice whatever Of machines. He
may think that certain machines
made by outside parties are much
better for his particular use or for
the particular operation for which
they are intended, but he is not at
liberty to use them, If he does,
the United people, by the terms of
their lease, may take out their ma
chimes and leave him stranded.
"There is another clause in this
lease which prohibits the lessee
from making any alterations what.
ever in the machine. He cannot
take from or add any part, no mat
ter how much this alteration might
improve the quality of the work or
accelerate the speed of the machine.
This is done to keep the practical
American manufacturer from be-
coming an inventor and possible
rival of the United Machinery
Company. 1t is bold death
thrust at American invention.

cry has but one person or corpora
