HIS Noble Record.


Mai. Mckinley Is q man with q
record. 1t Is too long and too varied
TO recount in a single article. but few
salient points may be recalled with
profit.
He has made war without legal
authority on our allies, the non-sls7e-
holding Christian monogamisss Of
Luzsu.
He has recognized slavery and Polyg-
amy in the sulus.
He bought peace from the hoham-
medan barbarian slave-holding polyg-
amist despot and is paying him and his
retainers large subsidies for the main
tenance Of their harems.
He has said In an interview that he
could deny the right Of suffrage, Of
trial by jury, Of the writ Of habea'
corpus, the right to bear arms, the
right OF representation and all other
rights to the inhabitants Of "our new
possessions" while imposing upon
them arbitrary taxes.
He declared in message to congress-
that forcible annexation under our code
Of morals would be criminal aggression
He then engaged in forcible annexa
tIon.
He told congress that 1t was oul
"plain duty" to give Porto Rico fre'
trade.
Immediately thereafter he exerted oil
the power Of his administration Il
compel congress TO impose a tariff
upon Porto Rican commerce both ways
Mr.. oxnard Of the sugar trust had seeI
him later.
He paid Spain s2O,OOO,OOo for It'll
she had lost and secured an insurrec
tion in which Spain had been whipped
He has since spent more than $500,
900, 900 in trying to got what Spain !
supposed to have agreed to deliver.
And now he is asking the people o
the United States to ratify his illega
and immoral acts and to give him
chance to complete his schemes o
imperial conquest and exploitation.

Evrry i0ur ,vAIs ihe republicans Of
pun themselves together and
announce their intention Of carrying
The state. And every four years the
democratic majority rolls higher and
higher. -Four and eight years ago they
made the campaign on a cry Of "sland

that the people believed IN doing that
very thing, bat that they had no desire
10 give republican officials a chance to

their candidate for governor. who has
been drawing a salary flom the state
for six years, did not know the differ

They are public property and th'

One thing that seems to be causinI

answered in another column Of thi

that. When democratic officials us

every dollar of it and prove that 1t ws

But how about the republicans
There are books 10 the vaults at II
state capital that ought to make ever

with silver lace about four inches wide.
With this gown Miss Millward wears
long coat Of cloth-of-silver. appliqued
with a Louis XIV. design 10 black
Chantilly lace and lines with plain blue
chiffon.
Another Of Miss Miilward's gowns is
white taffeta, appliqued in design OF
open work palm leaves on white net.
This gown is apparently made in one
piece. 1t has slight fullness on the
hips, similar to Miss Anglin's, and the
fullpess in the back is held in place by
long paste ornament.
A dozen or more exquisite paste but
tons fasten it from the collar to the
knee, where it opens over an under pet
ticoat Of white chiffon. 1t has collar
OF shirred chiffon that looks as though
it had been stolen from some old por-
trait; this collar turns away bit from
the neck and leaves the throat free.
There are half sleeves of the embroid-
cred taffeta and under sleeves Of chif
fon with the same shirring as is used on
the collar.
The play exacts that in one act, Miss
Millward, who is in the wilds Of Aus
tralia, shall appear in riding habit,
and l congratulate her on getting away
from the conventional stage garment,
which destroys the beauty Of the most
beautiful of women, and is generally
worn with bad judgment. Miss Mill
ward wears in place Of this old thing
white muslin shirt waist and rongh
straw hat with her habit skirt. The
shirt waist that Miss Millward wears
shows that the outline of this years
shirt waist remains the came al last, but
it also shows that there are many new
and dainty touches to be considered.
