Carlisle gave them an the time they

whisky in bond
Less than two years ago, the DEM
Dcratic legislature of Missouri enacted
II law creating niEety million dollar
street railway trust. That Is the trust
that has recently vanquished the con-
ductors and motormens' strike in St.
Louis. The last effort of the strikers
ives to employ attorneys to see IL they
could discover some flaw in the law
~ which 1t can be set aside, but the
law was drawn up by the best lawyers

Last May it was discovered that May
OF Van Wyck and other Democratic
c1'cials of the city Of New York had
organized an ice trust and bought up

Shylocks attended the Kansas City
cinvention, endorsed the antitrust
,ank in the platform and w. j. Bryan
as an antitrust candidate for the
presidency. This cry of stop thief"
Dy the Kansas City convention was in
tended to divert public attention from
their own subserviency to the trusts.
The action of the Democrats in con-
gress on the Porto Rican bill is an
ether instance of Democratic support
of the trusts. The facts are as follows.

| bought UP all the sugar and tobacco
| that was for sale in Porto Rica. The
| question was whether they should be
permitted 10 import it free of duty or
whether they should pay for it. The
Democrats said let them bring it iii
free.
The Republicans said they must pay
a duty on it, The Democrats were so
determined to assist the sugar and to-
bacco trusts that they delayed the &C.
ton of congress for more than a
month, when the Republicans, by the
force of numbers, outvoted them and
passed the bill taxing the trusts and
paving the money into the Porto
H,can treasury.
In view OF the impoverished condt-
ton Of Porto Rico and the importance

| rrcYemCnt ofpublic reads in the island,
tho president recommended to con
gi,-s that the entire duties collected
C. goods from that island, from the
d.,' it was acquired OF Spain, should
lie given TO Porto Rico. A bill to do
80 passed the house promptly, but
w IN ii came to the senate, Jones Of
Arkansas. chairman of the Democratic
national committee, moved to amend
the bill and refund the money to the
Dat ties who had paid the duties. This
Was simply proposition made by Sen
! ator Jones of Arkansas, chairman of
| the Democratic national committee, to
take S1,S00,00O out of the, treasury oi
the United States and give it to the
sugar trust, and also a large sum to
the tobacco trust. This monstrouS
proposition has not injured the stand
ing of Senator Jones in his party. for
he has recently been reelected to the
/ craftsmanship of that committee.
This is the record of the Democratic
party on trusts and it proves what

| that their continual cry Of stop
| thief" was only to cover up their sub
serviency to the trusts and monopolies

Difficulty in getting men to work

years ago, is reported throughout the
entire trade, and is so general as to
lucome a positive proof of the i'm

commission workers, while in 1896 it

THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

CONTINUED from seventh page.)
was 1853 votes for Roosevelt and 218
for Governor Black. Judge j. r.
Cady then moved that the convention
make the name of Theodore Roosevelt
unanimous. This was Immediately
done.
Mr.. Roosevelt's opponent was Angus
tus Van Wyck. During the short per-
iod between his nomination and cleo
tfon Mr. Roosevelt made abut three
hundred speeches. His plurality was
1S,O79.
| Mr. Roosevelt IS not fond of public
life, but is more suited when at his
quiet hcne at Oyster Bay. His home
is situated on Sycamore Hill, about
three miles back of Oyster Bay. His
favorte room is his library. These
are the books he loves best, books of
history, literature, hunting and adven-
ture. He is the happiest when alone
with his books and family, when the
|
mind, and when he rcmps with his
children.
Mr.. Roosevelt twice married. His
first wife was Miss Alice Lee, of Bos-
ton, who died in 1884, leaving him an
infant daughter. In 1886 he married
Miss Edith Hermit Carow. She dress
es simply, always in taste, and
shrinks from publicity. There are
six little Roosevelts. The eldest, Miss
Alice, daughter of the first Mrs. Roose-
welt, is most excellent type of Ameri-
can girlhood. The pride of the family
is Master Teddy" or Theodore, Jr,
aged eleven. He is like his father in
many ways, the only difference is that
he is much older in his ways than
TEDDY" Sr. He loves books and out
door sports, and is the philosopher of
the family.
The Roosevelt children attend the
district school at Oyster Bay. Mr..
Roosevelt seems pleased with their
progress, and recently said: THE ex-
perlence will be good for them. My
boys will go to Harvard when they get
old enough. Up to the present they
have done as well as l could wish at
the Cove School" Not long ago he
was called upon to make a speech to
the scholars of Cove School at Oyster
Bay. In the course of his talk he said:
| lat
Don't be quarrelsome. But stand up
for your rights. If you've got to fight,
fight and fight hard and well. To my
mind a coward is the only thing mean
be gentle to little girls and to dumb
animals. The boy who maltreats ami
mails is not worth having his neck
wrung."
He is an American. every inch of
him. He loves old Harvard--his Alma
Mater, and yet he does not believe that
every boy should have a college edu-
cation. He says it depends somewhat
on the kind of a boy it is. Most boys
do not use their education 10 good
advantage.
Theodore Roosevelt is a fine type of
the American statesman, as well as
the soldier His powers as an author
are great, and if he had nothing to de-
pend upon for his living but his pen
he would be in the foremost rank OF
4 American writer's. He was bred a
fighter, and today his name is honored
throughout this whole country, and
3 wherever he gees he meets a hearty
3 welcome and a demonstration.
