Under the leadership of reunited

sistance of the American people to

tinued with increased vigor and GER

The result of the national elections
of 1909, following campaign in which,
all the power of trust money aud in
fuence was eNerted to overcome the
will of the people, makes inevitable
that increased arrogance of monopoly
which will itself assist in the ultimate
removal of the trust menace from
American commercial and industrial
life.

McKinleyism, during which the tri-
nmphant trusts will have full swing in
their malign progress toward COM

conditions where it will be no longer
possible to safely leave the govern

Indian subjects, he listened to their
folk tales, he studied the habits and
character of other tribes through the
aid of his Indian friends and his
books. But With the coming of the
terrible, cold of winter his health be-

was wasting away beneath the work,
and the rigors of northern winter.

satisfaction to his wife.

said.
And it did, but it came too late. AL
most before the manuscript and draw

Mr. Williams had departed this life.
He died among his Indian friends,
who sincerely mourned for him, and
gave to his wife every token of re-
gard which Indian nature knows.
They showered their simple presents
upon her. and when she left for the
east with the remains of the young
husband who had come west with such
hope, they gave her parting greet,

people begin to realize that, after

to be mighty expensive luxury

wages, or is simply lucky.-Cincin-
