The Full Dinner Pail is all
argument that is going to count in
this campaign, Laboring people
and everyone else have had prosper
Gus times during the past four
years, and the dinner pail has been
full to the top. What intelligent
man can contemplate return to the
democratic party's administration Of
affairs? Who wants to see the re-
turn of the party to power, under
whose administration banks 'Ebust-
ed'' and free soup houses prospered?
Coyeyism is not to be invited to
again tramp through our land.
Under four years OF McKinleylsm all
things have gone well, and the
nation never had better times. It
seems that the person who would
vote for change in the administra-
ton this year must be either "a mad
man or fool, "Iand as this is an age
when men are becoming very sensi-
ole the result must certainly be a
great republican victory.

The democrats will go through
the formality of placing a state
ticket in the field, just to keep up
the party organization. A leading
democrat of this county admitted
to the writer few DAYS ago that the
democrats have no show. Said he;
II am a great admirer of Robert M.
LaFollette, and there are plenty of
democrats that feel the same way.
Thousands of democratic votes will
be thrown to LaFollette, this year.
The probabilities are that LaFollette
will run away ahead of his ticket, as
his personal admirers irrespective of
party will all vote for ''little Bob"

THE Empire of China ought to

during the past week. The govern

begging for mercy from the great

There was never much in the
democratic party to attract the
young voter, but there is less now
than ever before. All the young
voters are enthusiasts of Mckinley

little chance to be anything but

learned from David L Short and Morris

appear on the various alleged assign
ments to Patrick, and on the alleged
will made by Mr.. Rice, said:

were witnesses to the will which gives
practically everything to Patrick. This
will was dated and executed in Mr.
Rice's apartments on June 80 last.

Patrick'S possession.
according to the statements of Short
and Meyers, relative to the singing OF
this will. they had both gone to Rice's
fiat to take acknowledgements of certain
other papers. They had finished this
work and were talking with Mr.. Rice
when he said: Wait a minute, L have
got something else l want you to do. >
He came back, and is alleged by Short
and Meyers to have said, This IS my
will and I want to execute it
s'They said he signed the document in
their presence and they made the Gus
tomary acknowledgements of the sigma
ture.
Both said that they did not know the
contents of the will Patrick was not
present, they declared, at the time the
will was singned.
L said to Short: This is a most pc
culiar state of affairs all around and
he replied: You must remember that
this old man was most peculiar and his
affairs are bound to be peculiar.
s'They said that Rice would often send
for them to come to his fiat and take
acknowledg ments of his signature to
certain papers, and when they got there
he would change his mind, saying: We
won't bother about this today. 1 will
think it over for a time

time evidence will be produced to show
that these men engaged in similar
transactions
