THE TRUSTS APPRECIATE THE
VOTE OF CONFIDENCE.

The trust record OF the Republican
party was one Of the things 1.-The peo-
pie endorsed" at the recent election.
that his declaration, there are no
trusts has been amply vindicated.
1t is quite useless to take issue with
Mr.. Hanna or with the popular YER
dict. 1t only remains to wait and see
what the Republican party will do
about 1t.
In the meantime the trusts are max
ing perfectly plain what they are go
ing to do about it. Yesterdays dis
patches alone contained these state
ments:
THE incorporation of the American
Rice Growers Distributing Company
was announced yesterday. The CAPT
tai stock is $l5.o00-ou0. of which $780,
600 is reported paid in
THE National Salt Company yester-
day put up the price of common salt
of fair quality to $3.50 per 100
pounds. The price before was S110 per
100 for the same grade. The National
Salt Company controls directly % per
try. and is able indirectly to dominate
the remaining per cent. Of the pro-
duction."
The Meat trust had already put up
the price of beef ten per cent. Salt,
beef and rice are all things that
doubtless get into the full dinner once
in n while. In just one week after the
result of the election was announced
these things have taken place:
\ Rice Trust has been formed.
The price of salt has been advanced
127 per cent.
The price OF beef has been advanced
| 10 per cent.
This is a pretty good start and
promises we'll for the four years and
more of Republican rule. If trusts
which don't exist, according to Mr.
Hanna-have done this to the full din
ner pail in one week anybody who is
so minded can figure out what it will
do in 235 weeks, or until March 4th
1905
If the American people did not get
what they voted form n collective
scnsc-thcre would be no use in voting
They voted for the trusts with their
eyes open, and they will get plenty OF
what they voted for.

THE CASE OF MANSFIELD. o.
(Omahn' World -HeraldD

The city of Mansfield. o.. should be
brought back into the Union without
further delay. The condition of affairs
in that city is such that we cannot very
well pirate about our liberality of
thought and action. The mob spirit
has ruled that city for the past three
months. and while we have sacrificed
several hundred American soldiers and
thousands OF American dollars in MAX
Ing the Chinese receive missionaries,
we have viewed With patience the spec
tacle OF Mansfield doing just what the
Chinese We're whipped for doing-abus-
ing missionaries. 1t is neither here nor
there what particular religion the mis-
sonaries wanted TO preach in Mans
field. We did not ask the religious
views of the missionaries in China.
We merely. insisted that they be al
lowed TO preach what they believed.
And If we do that much in China GER
tainly we ought to DO 1t in Mansfield.
The Dowieite elders who have been
tarred and feathcred and brutally as
saulted in Mansfield have just IS much
right TO preach their religion in Mans
field as he missionaries in China had
to preach their religion in PclSin and
Canton. If IT was right for us to COM
pei the Chinese to listen it would not
he wrong to compel the people of Mans
field to listen.

PARTY REoRGANIzATIoN.
ATLANTA Constitutinnl

Once more the Democratic party has
been in struggle-once more defeated,
us has often been the case with the
cause of freedom-once more the recip-
lent of advice from those who fought
not within the ranks and who would
bring diScredit upon those who were
in the thick of the fight. 1t must be
somewhat amusing to n calm observer
to listen to the commiseration which
proceeds from within the ranks of Re-
publicanism. Men who voted for q
protective tariff would teach the Dem
ocratic party tariff reform: those who
voted for extra -constitutionalism would
recall the form of strict construction:
those who voted to give the right OF
way to trusts would now tell us how TO
curb them. Verify. these belated
friends assume to themselves exceed
ing virtue. and with the stain of Ar
mold upon their garments would claim
the virtue of Washington. Men who in
trusted place betrayed the party which
honored them; who not only sulked in
their tents on the day of battle, but
who actually voted for Republicansm
with all that it implies. are now ready
to claim position as Democratic leaders.
and do not hesitate to assault those
who were true in the conflict.

WINTER HoLD-UPs.
(Chlcaeo Record

In the recent outbreak of holdups
and other crimes and disturbances the
police will find evidence that the sea-
son for the annual invasion of the va
grant criminal class has arrived. The
comparative immunity which large
cities enjoy during the summer is due
to the absence of the professional va
grants. Driven by the cold from the
highways of the country, these crimi-
nails make their Wy in the late fall to
the cities. where shelter is cheaper, OPP
portunlties for crime are abundant and
the all-night saloon affords a friendly
shelter. In addition, it is to be remem-
bercd that the winter season. while it
brings increased numbers of criminals.
is more favorable to their operations.
The long dark evenings and the desert
ed streets make criminal undertakings
especially easy and lessen the chances
of detection or CAPTURE.
Virginian-pilot. (Norfolk, Va.) 1898-1911, 1900-11-14

From these figures it appears that
Virginia had nearly as many people in
1920 as North Carolina had in 1870.
Eighty years ago we passed the mill
lion mark in population. and We have
not yet reached the two million mark.
The Tarhecls are thrifty folk, and
they are putting their surplus capital
into cotton mills and small manufac-
turing establishments OF one sort and
another. The State has made more cf-
fort than has Virginia to induce immi-
grants and investors to locate in it.
These things count in the aggregate.
Virginia begins the decade with a
convention to frame new Constitu-
ton. 1T should Likewise begin ii by the
inauguration OF progressive State
policy; by looping off some useless Of
fees and devoting some OF the money
thereby saved TO making known to the
world the unrivalled opportunities the
Old Dominion offers to the settler and
the capitalist. The real problem be-
fore the people OF this State is not po-
]tcal, but Industrial; it is not the con-
traction of It's suffrage. but the expan-
sion Of it's commerce; not q reduction
in the number of voters, but an in
crease In the number OF thrifty citi-
zens. What is the matter with Vir-
einia? She does not look too much TO
a glorious past; she does look too little
TO a future that shall rival 1t.

that North Carolina now has 37.S0S

the population of Virginia was 1512, sos i;
the poulation of North Carolina was
1,299.750. or 112,S15 less than the popula-

CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT.

The Chicago Chronicle. which alone
of Chicagos larger newspapers sup
ported Mr.. Bryan this year. says OF
the campaign:
"'rhc antics Of the managers during
the campaign were n comedy. An eX
Governor of Missouri. gifted in the
crafty arts by which politics in that
State is administered. located himself
in New York city to manage the cam
paign ut the East. He started out to
capture New York. New Jersey. Con-
necticut and other States. He even
hoped and expressed an open belief
that Pennsylvania and Massa chusctts
might be inveigled into voting for Mr..
Bryan. He declared that Vermont
was the only certain Republican State!
He exchanged views with Croker and
announced to the world that MIR.
Brsan would carry more than thirty
States. with two-thirds of the electoral
vote. BY long-distance telephone Mr..
Stone in New York and Mr. Jones in
Chicago snapped assurances. which
they confidcd to reporters. that the
country East and West was going
overwhelmingly Democratic. II was to
he a Bryan landslide. What could be
expected of this idiotic party misman-
agcment?'
Before the Kansas City convention the
Nirginian- Pilot pointed out that what
ever the platform and whoever the
candidate, the great need of the Dem
ocratic party was n campaign mana
ger who could grasp the game of poll
tics as it is now played. 1t is not ne
ccssary 10 assent to all that the Chron-
iclc says OF Senator Jones and EN-
Governor Stone TO admit that neither
of them was n match for any one OF
three or four men who played the
cards for the Republican party.
Chairman Jones is an estimable man
and of sufficient ability to have filled
acceptably a dozen years ago the po-
siton of campaign manager for his
party; but times have changed; the
duties of the place are vastly more
complicated: the very nature of polit-
teal contests IS different. Senator
Jones talks too much, and he Is too
optimistic. The same objection applies
to Ex- Governor Stone. 1t was a mis-
take of the first magnitude to put a
Western man in charge Of the cam
paign in the East this year. lie could
not know the conditions. He was not
In touch with the local leaders many

paign management was out of the

If those soicitous persons who are
already hunting q candidate for Pres
ident on the Democratic ticket in 1901
will busy themselves with finding Il
cool. sagacious, reticent man of exc
cutiye ability. and keen insight, to
manage the next campaign, they will
do the party real service.
