LEAVES HIS PARTY ON TRUSTS.

There is nothing you can buy any
more that is not carrying a price ar
bitrarily fixed by a trust" said Will
liam N. Whitley the reaper king, of
Springfield, Ohio, the past week in an
nouncing that in the future he propos-
ed to vote and work with the Demo-
cratic party. The action of Mr.. White
Iy is far out of the ordinary, because
he has not only been a Republican all
OF his life, but one who has given free
ly of his means and been enthusiastic
in his aid to Republican candidates and
principles. Mr.. Whitley was a warm
champion of William Mckinley
through both of his campaigns. AS an
evidence of the kind of work he did
for the candidates he supported it is
remembered that Whitley organized
among the 5000 men who were work.
ing for him a band of forty pieces
which travelled around the Buckeye
state and did yeoman service for the
party founded on the sentiment against
human slavery in the early fifties Mr.
Whitley even chartered trains and
hauled his employees from rally to rally
to increase the enthusiasm for the rep
resentatives of his party who were for
the moment Standing upon it's plat
forms.
Just at this hour, however, Mr.
Whitley has his lorgnette turned on a
great light. He sees with startling
clearness that the leaders Of the Re
publican party are owned body and
soul by men who are at the head of
the trusts; that, in spite of the pratt
1ngs of Theodore Roosevelt the con-
gressional majority is ready to do the
bidding of the big combinations, and
that no relief is possible until the Dem
ocratic party gets in control at least of
the house of representatives.
Every family is affected by the
trusts" says Mr.. Whitley TN my
judgment the thing for the Democratic
party to do is to adopt one issue and
stick to that with vim. That issue is
the tariff. The people are growing
restless. they are growing tired of trust
domination and a great revuIsion of
sentiment is at hand"
Mr.. Whitley is in commercial life, is
a close student of affairs and knows
we'll how the common people feel about
trust extortions The day of reckon
ing is at hand and the Democratic par
ty has it in it's power to make the 'in-
FAINT industries stand on their own
feet or stand them on their heads.

FATE OF RECIPROCITY.

After five years Of successive de-
feats Of all sattempts at reciprocity
under the operations of the Dingley
law, we are now informed that the
tariff fathers of the Dingley act, which
contains the. so-called reciprocity pro-
yisos, expected and intended and de-
liberately planned that reciprocity un-
der those provisions should be vir-
tually impossible and should fail.
The Minneapolis journal special serv-
ice from the New York Sun gives the
facts of the situation. The statement
is given in positive terms that Ding
ley, Reed, Payne, Dalzell, Hopkins,
TawneyT and the other Republican
leaders who participated in the MAX
ing of that high tariff law did not in
tend that the reciprocity section should
be successful. They placed it in the
law against their own judgment, being
compelled by popular sentiment"
''They knew. or they expected, it would
fail" "They are all high tariff pro-
tectionists and are opposed to reci-
procity on principle
Furthermore, they will fight and de-
feat that and every other proposition
that points to the reduction of tariff
duties" That is true enough, as shown
by what they have been doing during
the past five years. straight and
consistent record Of reciprocity s1augh-
ter and tariff reform defeat, of which
the fate of Cuban and Canadian reci-
procity are the most recent Incidents.
The greatest consolation which the
Journals correspondent can hold forth
is the following: "Little can be done
at best, but that little will be strongly
opposed"
In other words, the Republican reci-
procity programme is-reciprocity talk
for campaign political purposes, but
not a line Of reciprocity law for the
commercial relief of the country.

son of Russia had half a hundred of

erone to keep him at his hotel after
sunset.
