A NOTABLE CONVERT
Henry E, Davis of Washington
 Talking For Mckinley
Defends Republican Position as to Trusts, and Charges Bryan With Insincerity-In Harmony With Republican Principles.

Washington. Oct. 2S.-Hon. Harry F. Davis, q lifelong democrat and former United States attorney for the District uf Columbia by appointment of Grover Cleveland. who cnampioned Mir. Me KinIey on the money issue in the last campaign. has defined himself as d "constitutionaI democrat" in full ac- cord and harmony with all the leading policies and doctrines of the republican party. On the question of trusts, of militarism. of imperialism. of finance. he agrees with Mckinley and the re- publican platform in every respect and disaSrecs in every respect with Bryan and the democrats of today.
 Tn discussing campaign issues today he said: Trusts come in first. He would not stop. to give a definition for trusts. declaring that he had excellent precedent for not doing so. He pointed out that the democratic platform. while denouncinG them. had failed tO define what il meant by trusts. He submitted evidence. the purpOrt of which was to convict the democratic party of insin- cerity in dealing with the question of trusts and their suppression. He sub mltted the proposition. first, that the national congress could only reach the trusts when their operation extended across state lines and thereby came under the head uf interstate commerce. He cited decisions by the supreme court 10 show that congress was DOW erleSs Ia reach d manufacturing trust that did not engage Tn transportation across state bOrd 9rs For trusts that did engage in interstate commerce. he declared the Sherman law of 1890 was adequate remedy. He recited a decision of the supreme court. in which it had been expressly stated that this law had been framed with a full under standing Of the powers with which con Sress is endowed. The suppression of several railway combinations and the steel rail pool. under the operation of this law. he pointed out. was sufficient evidence uf its effectiveness.
 tPcn the showing made he based this conclusion; Congress was empowered by the constitution to deal with trusts when in their operations they crossed the borders of states. Under this grant of power the republicans had passed the sherman law. which was as com PIetc and effective as statute could be made Trusts operating within the states could not be reached by tho con Eress hecauss of the constitutional pro vision that the states shall have the right {" regulate their internecine aF- fairs The remedy. then. Was in a con stitutional amendment couferring upon the congress the power it now lacks. The republicans had proposed such an amendment; inc democrats had pre- vented it's submission by congress 10 inc states. While demanding that con SreSs should deal with the trusts. the democrats had blocked the only pos sible measure ty which congress could gam power 10 do sU. Therefore of the charge that it fostered trusts the re- publican party stood acquitted"

AMERICAN BIDS IN AFRICA
English Rolling Stock Builders Dis
 counted in Time and Price.

Cape Town. Oct. 2S.-TheWitwaters- rand gold mines. requiring rolling stock for coal placed an order for fifteen heavy locomotives with British manu- facturers last August. Two tenders fog more than 200 trucks were received from the largest British anI American factories the American tender being far more favorable in point oF price and quicknssS of delivery. The mining industry being most anxious tn favor the British. called for fresh tenders from British manufacturers. giving them q fUrthc- opportunity. even at the expense of valuable time
 The American tenders are still much the more advantageous Nevertheless orders for SeVenty-three fat bottom trucks ar. being placed in England owing to suitability ef design and to the strong advice of he military rail way authorities who have promised to lend their own trucks in order to coun- terbalance the late British delivery
 Orders for 16O bottom discharge trucks have been placed in America. The British firms in South Africa ar. all anxious to favor British trade but the manufacturers must be more cuer- -rtir and realize the necessity of cheaper and quicker work. time being often of paramount importance.

D. Turner Is Not Knocker But He
 Is Through With Nome.

D.0Turn-r F has returned from Nome City He says il is d beautiful pIac-. but he doesn't want to live in it, and he nas S;iH greater av-rSion to dying there. so he came home. He says il i < an eXcell= mt place for some people to make money but he noticed that for the mos part when one man made a dollar another one lost it. The only exceptions were those who found fine right kind of sand and worked it to a finish before the court officials and jumpers got onto it.
 The beach, he thinks. is pretty walI worked out or hnpcIessly tied up in lit igation. but he says the back country is full "f creeks that are undoubtedly rich in th' precious metal and that will in their own good slime give up for tunes tn many.
 Asked about th- opportunity for a working man. he said that during the summer there were 10000 people there and h. estimatei that there w.re about i00 jobs in the camp. The other 3.6OO were working each other. The popuia- ton is npw much smaller. as it was generally .heliev-d -d that only about 1000 would winter there. He says there are
  in the camp and some that are beIiev, q tn he ire-proof but lumber now is down to $50 per thousand and many are putting up frame buildings and q - serting their tents.

Ther- are lots of fresh water fish obtainable and of excellent quality. Many pre- diet that the prov ision supply would be exhausted before spring. but he was not prepared to express an opinion.
 The native Indians. he says, are ab- horrently filthy and rcpulsive. owing to their limit d bill of fare and -xtreme poverty. I-e mentioned most of the Phoenix people thcre and says they are either doing well or living in hope of striking It rich in the spring. Of course he was asked if he got rich and like most e: those returning, replied in the negative, and the next | question naturally was if he was sorry | le went. To this he said emphatically, | No. Of course I'm not. l didn't get l rich. but I've been leading al | putt rhy life.
