That the people OF the state were

every branch of the state service. 1t was
due to the prosperity which came to the
state by the enactment of the sound tariff

tion Is entitled to no credit whatever for
this law and its execution.
As shown in the foregoing tables. the
Rogers administration is yet to account

contribute more than SIoo, 900 to
the Democratic National Commit
tee. They are in earnest in advo-
eating the election OF Bryan, and
in their opposition to all forms OF
trusts, because their incomes have
been affected to a greater degree
than those Of any other class Of
employees by gigantic trust,
Their incomes have been cut down
so per cent, and their work has in
no wise been decreased.
This new force is the coupon
ticket agents Of the United States.
There are $1,000 railway station
agents, fully one-fourth OF whom
are coupon ticket agents-that is,
they sell tickets over other roads
than their own. In the larger
cities there are 5000 ticket agents,
and, including ticket brokers, the
total number reaches $4,000. All
these men are suffering a large
decrease in their incomes solely
because the railways OF the United
States have formed a gigantic pool
or trust, and have discontinued
paying these agents a commission
for selling tickets over the various
railways.
In the States Of Illinois, Indiana,
Michigan, Wisconsin and MINES,
ota, which gave Mckinley major
tiles in 1896, there are 3,as3 coupon
ticket agents. In Chicago alone
there are 553; not a large number
when compared with the total vote
in those States, but they are a
| powerfully aggressive force, with
hosts oil friends among all classes,
able to argue intelligently, and
with the sympathy ofrailroad men
at large they will control a vote
out OF all proportion to their num-
bers.
The ticket agents and the drum.
mers are thoroughly awake to the
advantages Of McKinleY's era ot
prosperity.

ReIapsing into Barbsrism

he present trend Of conditions
IS calculated to alarm the thought
iul citizen for the future OF human
ity. The hope OF the patriotic and
humane was in the benefcence OF
republican forms OF government.
But judging from the acts Of
France and the United States, the
hope is not we'll founded. Much
was not to be expected from
France, for it had but entered its
novitiate as a Republic, and re-
tanned many OF the elements oil an
imperial military despotism. The
United States, however. has had a
fair start. and been, on the whole,
a success. But the sudden change
to militaTism, the result OF an in
significant war with a decadent
power, augurs i'll for the future
peace OF the world, unless the lingo
party is overwhelmingly defeated
at the polls. The reports OF savage
attacks by the United States SOL
dlers on defenceless Filipinos are
so common as to scarcely cause
comment. The gross neglect Of
British soldiers in South Africa,
where they were left by their
superiors lying in mud and water,
though suffering from fever, are
significant OF the horrible realities
OF war, and the callous spirit which
it engenders Such are the fruits
Of military despotism. And on
such career is the United States
unless the people, the
masters, the sovereigns, take the
reins in their own hands by elect.

The Chances IN New York.

It is the belief here that if the
De mocrats get together in earnest
and nominate Coler for Governor
they will make a master stroke.
Coler could be elected against any
man the Republicans could put in
the field, and with Odell as the
nominee it would be a walk-away.
The people Of New York admire
and trust Coler. His work in New
York city has shown that he is
honest and fearless, and while he
lacks the pyrotechnical attributes
the present Governor has, there is
a general feeling that he is just the
sort Of man that is needed in the
gubernatorial chair. His nomina-
tion would greatly strengthen the
Bryan ticket, and would DO more
than any other possible thing to
make New York Democratic.
Washington sentinel., 1900-08-04
The Jones Vote I'm ohio.

While the Republicans would
like to give the impression that all
the problems to be solved in this
campaign are Democratic, it must
not be overlooked that they have
one Of their own, in the Presidents
home State, which threatens the
loss OF Ohio to Mckinley.
The Republican managers in
Ohio hoot at the claims Of the
Democrats that they will carry the
State tor Bryan, but they are never
theless preparing for a desperate
fight in McKinleY's home State.
Republican State headquarters are
being organized on a scale never
before attempted, and the canvas
is to be as close and thorough as
though a few hundred votes were
all the margin the Presidents party
had to 60 on. While they will not
admit the fact, it is plain to be seen
that the Jones vote puzzle is worry
ing the Republican managers.
There is no denying that the hun
dred thousand votes cast last fall
for Mayor Jones, OF Toledo, when
he was an independent candidate
for Governor, were votes in oppo-
sition to the Republican party and
Mckinley's Admin stration. If
those hundred thousand votes 20 to
Bryan this year, he will carry the
State, and, heap ridicule upon the
proposition as they may, the ques-
ton Of where the Jones vote will
land is causing sleepless nights for
those who are charged with seeing
that Ohio's electoral vote is
counted for Mckinley.

Roosevelt's Insult will be Avenged

RooseYelt's Insult viii be Avenged
Already the effects ol Roose-
velt's malicious attack upon dead
and living Democratic heroes are
beginning to make themselves evil
dent, A great many Of the Gov
ernor's outbursts have been passed
over in contempt, but his clubbing
OF Democratic soldiers as "cow-
ardly shirkers" has caused a
general feeling ofhearty dislike.
To the relatives and friends Of
the dead heroes the insult comes
doubly hard, and they will work
doubly hard on election day to
repay Mr.. Roosevelt.
There is no question that many
Republicans waited to express
their opinion until after Roosevelt
should have made some denial of
his speech or attempted to speci-
ously explain it, He can do
neither, for the speech IS a matter
Of record, and he has often boosted
that he never says a word he does
not mean, Their feeling is grow
ing now with his silence into some
thing very near the quicker anger
Of the Democrats, and they will
either refuse to vote at all or vote
for Mr.. Bryan.

the disgust Of honest meu, then as now.
