Republica. u and trusts.

The RepubldcaNs are trying to get
credit for being the only party which
ever passed an ANTITRUST law. This
is certainly something to be proud of
seeing the way the trusts have grown
and fiourished under 1T. The Repub-
lican leaders are we'll known to be
hostile ito all forms of monopoly. This

The Hartford Post asserts that many
of the contracts now being made for
next winters business are conditional
on 1.-The reelection of Mckinley. If
Bryan is elected the deals are off. This,
our contemporary thinks, ''is NOT
politics, but cold-blooded business"
oh, no, it lis not business, but politics
pf the most familiar kind. There
never is a Presidential campaign with
out the same dodge. In 1884 the late
P. T. Barnum announced that he
would sell all his property at Bridge
port for fifty cents onthe dollar in case
of Cleveland's election. When Cleve-
land was elected Barnum was asked Ito
make good" but he preferred to hold
on to the property. In 1896 there was
a general announcement ON the part oi
factory owners that they would shut
down in the event of Bryan's election
and that if Mckinley should be elected
they would run ON full time ait in.

and many of the factories that hat
made THESE promises shut down, ant
of those that kept open number re

Prediction threats and promise
are politics. Post-election perform

party is never without its Barnum.

It othe Importance of qualifying that
their votes may count in THE contest,
and they are doing dlt.
We agree with eix-United States
Senator Anthony Higgins, one Of the
shrewdest politicians that thIe Repub-
licans of Delaware have ever produced,
THAT Delaware is naturally Democratic.
The States poliIical HISTORY proves
this. In the present campaign natural
conditions will rule. The franchise of
the State is mot likely ito be matter
of barter Ito any very large extent, and
under these natural conditions this
naturally Democratic State is sure TO
be controlled by the Democratic vote.
To aid us in the contest we have
B5l.h a strong ticket and platform OF
principles. Our opponents are weak
in both these particulars, laInd growing
plainly more so ais the campaign pro-
crosses, because cf the selfish personal
exhibitions given in the arrangement
of their State ticket. There lis little
to alttract the Ithinlping Citizen in thls
continued snarl and clash of the lead
ers of 1.-The Republican factions. Daily
it lis becoming more apparent that THE
rank and file of this party is grow
ing more and more disgusbed. Per-

charged that Mr. Bryan had parceled

build the elevator.
At different points along the line,
COunselman has had agents stationed
to buy grain. Last year, Mr.. H. A.
Marble, the Rock Island station agent
at RuletOn, bought grain for this COM
pany at that point, where a great deal
OF grain was handled. This year the
extraordinary crop prospect has moved
them to make ample provision for the

Many nIPRoVEIEFTs MADE
Fully Double the Amount In GoOdIand
This Spring Than During Any Year
since '92-keeP IL Going Oh.

More improvements have been and
are being made in GOOdland this
spring than during any two other sea-
sons since the glorious days Of 90
While few new buildings have been
erected the old ones have been moved
TO more desirable locations, additions
added aud residences rebuilt until the
city presents a greatly changed appear
ance for the better. House movers,
carpenters, plasterers, painters, brick
layers and psperhangers have enjoyed
an unusually prosperous season, and
the day IabOrer has found ready en-
ployment in starting lawns and setting
out trees. These improvements as re-
corded from time to time in The Re
public make up long list.
So far the residence portion has
made by far the most improvement,
and now it is for the business man to
take on little pride and at least give
his building a coat Of paint A few
dollars spent for paint conveys an
impression Of prosperity to an extent
fully double the amount invested. It
is an old saw that when business is
poorest you should put on the greatest
appearance Of prosperity, and while
this need not here apply neither should
the reverse. GOOdIand has increased
in population and again passed the
1000 mark, the amount Of business
transacted in both county and city has
gained, and the identifying Of the city
should be kept apacs.
