we have thought that the city had red

and are firmly of the opinion that if
that city had republican paper and
even half sort of republican as its
editor, that it would be great i'm
provement over the one now printed
there, and the late election shows we
are right. With the city 1l8 republic

Because both are good advertising

are still in condition for use. The loss
is placed at $250,000.

Anarchists are opposed to all law and
all government. They suggest nothing.
Their idea is simply to destroy. They
seem to lose sight of the fact that the
killing of one president or one ruler will
not break up the system of government,
but probably install a worse ruler or a
greater tyrant han his predecessor.
Yet they would still go on killing. Their
ideas are based on nothing except the
most de~spicable and deplorable mental
obliquity.-Wilson Times

THE ANARCHISTS RELEASED
The Nine Men Held in Chicago Dis
charged-Emma Goldman to be Re-
leased Today.

Chicago, September 23.-The nine an
archists who have been under arrest
here since the assassination of Presi-
dent Mckinley, were today given their
freedom. Judge Chetlain so ordering af-
ter the prosecution had admitted that
there was no legal evidence against
them.
Emma Goldman was not in the party
to the proceedings. Her case is set for
hearing tomorrow before Magistrate
Prindiville, where she as we'll as the
nine men freed today are charged with
conspiracy to murder President Nc
Kinley. The cases in the lower court
with reference to the men are Of course
nullified by the action of Judge Chef
lain today. Miss Goldman will also be
set at liberty. IS Justice Prindiville has
agreed to take UGH action in her case
as the upper court took in the cases Of
the men.
When the hearing on the writ of
habeas corpus began before Judge
Chetlain, DR.. TAYLOR, the city prose-
cutor. declared that he could no longer
ask that the prisoners be held. I'VE
have no legal evidence against Them"
he said. 'They were arrested at the re-
quest of the Buffalo authorities, and

in constant touch with the eastern po-
lice. L was INFORMED lIlS InOTllluS ina

then demanded that in view Of the
gravity of the offense which had been
charged against his clients the prose-
cution state what cause. or what sus-
picions weighed with the police in max
ing the arrests.
Judge Chetlain said that in view of
the fact that the prosecution, repre-
senting both the city n the state, as
we'll as Buffalo. by indirection, had
| agreed to the liberation of the prisoners
and admitted that there was no evil
dence against them. there was no rea-
| son for further inquiry into the matter.
The prisoners were led back to Jail
where they collected their belongings,
chiefly magazines and newspapers, and
then came down stairs where they met
friends and members of their families.

Only as Old as You Feel

A little over a year ago Harry Hutch
ins, a famous English professional
sprinter, ran 200 yards in 20 3-5 seconds.
The remarkable thing about his feat
was that he had long passed his for
tieth year at the time. n was suppos-
ed. athletically speaking, to have been
laid upon the shelf.
An English newspaper now reports
that Colonel Savage, of the British ar
my. aged fifty-three, has won a hun
dred-yard run from the scratch mark
in 10 2-5 seconds, and from the same
mark in q 22O-yard handicap simply
distanced the other competitors.
Chicagoans are familiar with the fact
that "Old Man" Arson played as good
a game of ball after he became a grand
father as ne did before he became a IA
Their.
In the opinion of Brooklyn Life, such
instances of prolonged physical powers
bring to mind the fact that, after all.
growing old is largely a matter of
thinking about it. This is true. The
great majority Of men who have passed
forty are old or young according to
their belief. Those who think them
selves young are young.
The old saying, "a man is no older
than he-feels," contains a great deal
more wisdom than is generally conced-
ed. If Hutchins at forty had made up
his mind that ne was too old to sprint,
he would never have astounded the
world with his marvellous achievement.
If Savage at fifty-three had arrived at
the conclusion that h proper place
for him was an Easy chair, he would
never have performed a greater feat
than Hutchins. If Captain Arson at
forty-six had concluded that the time
had come When he should take to fan
nels and mustard foot baths, there
would not be talk now, when he is near
ly fifty, Of his return to the diamond.
1t is beginning to dawn upon the
minds of thinking people everywhere
that the reason why many men grow
old after forty is that they make no
effort to stay young. The lives of Won
Moltke. Bismarck, Gladstone, Salisbury.
Pope Leo, and others who may readily
be called, contradict the theory hat ad-
vanced years and old age are ynony
nous terms. Nom Of these men at for
ty-five or fifty-three could, perhaps,
excel in a sprinting race, in a ball game,
or in a boxing match, but each Of them
was as capable of performing hard
work at sixty as he vas at thirty, and
some of them performed their hardest
work after they had passed the period
when some men give UP the fight

An Object Lesson In Democracy

Throwing a veil for q moment over
the tragic event hat rendered It nee
essary, the making Of a new president
Of the United States of America at Buff
falo last Saturday stands out in bold
relief as an object lesson in de-
mocracy and one that command
for our institutions the respect and ad-
|miration of h world.
For a ceremony designed to install
the ruler of eighty millions of people,
without design and as a matter OF
course. an unpretentious room in the
unpretentious home Of an unpretentious
family was chosen. Outside this ordi-
nary American dwelling was a con-
course or ordinary American citizens
silent, reverent, confident.
Inside were a few members OF the
cabinet, a few government attaches. a
few newspaper reporters, a few mem
bers Of the family to whom the dwelling
belonged. the judge Of a minor couri
and the man who was to take the oath
prescribed by the constitution for the
chief executive Of the mightiest natior
on the globe.
There was nc paraphernalia, no Tin.
