employs a large number of Cubans In his cigar
factory in this city. said yesterday in talking of
the measure before Congress reciprocal trade
with Cuba:
The Cubans on the island are more LOYAL TO their
relations with the United States than they are
given credit for by many people, and the question
10 be considered by Congress is. What is
our moral duty toward Cuba? There is an
opportunity for the United States not onIy TO aid

commercial interests we'll The announcement
of the Cuban planters means an extension of the

trade with Cuba means trade of many millions

A SHREWD POLITICAL MOVE.

The EXAMINER is violating confidence when it says
there silent talk among republicans to nominate
against Judge Rich for judge of this district. The
scheme may not be thought Of seriously but at least
favorable to the proposition They say it would be
great political stroke for the republicans because Of the fol-
lowing arguments:
The democrats certain to renominate Judge Rich.
H they do isn't republican lawyer III the district that
would stand ghost Of show of defeating him, and
would nomination in face of such odds. For the
republicans endorse him would the taking of the
judiciary OF politics far this district is concerned
would also eliminate great degree active campaign
work the part OF Mr. Rich, because he could we'll
gage partisan fight when the republicans have taken the
steps necessary to keep the uogeshp of such things
Judge Rich is power less than five counties in his
district and with him placed in position where his strength
could used for the democrats except passive
would give the republicans big advantage what they
would have if Judge Rich had opponent, and
PEELED to make active In such event be would
only help himself all he could but would be strong lift
all the democratic ticket Judge Rich is democrat to
the and he will always found during political struggles
helping that party but with the arrangement above mentioned
it easy how delicate would be his position parti
ship fight and how minmzed would be his influence
If he sought to take active part in the coming campaign
Thus argue those who favor this political move,
Whether will be taken by ority of the republicans
and carried through remains to be With such scheme
democrats WOULD stand lose than anybody else,
by the eliminating of the popular Judge from the coming

Topeka NAYORALTY CASE.
Mayor Hughes Steps Out After
Nine Months In Office,
DECISION is IMPORTANT,

Topeka, Jan, li,--Thc supreme court
decided the Parkcr-lIughes mayoralty
contest case In favor Of Albert Parker,
the Democratic contestant,
The election last spring was very eX'
citing and was hotly contested, IL oc-
cured at the time Carrie Nation was
wAging a hatchet crusade against the
joints, Colonel Hughes was the candi-
date OF the Law and Order league and
was pledged to enforce the prohibition
law.
Parker, while not pledged, was the
logical candidate Of the liquor element,
The women were especially active dur
ing the campaign and although election
day was very disagreeable they cast
5000 Of the 10, 900 votes polled, Colonel
Hughes received nearly two.thirds Of
this vote, On the face Of the returns
Parker received majority yofll. Upon
canvassing the returns the city council
found an error had been made In foot
ing the tally sheets and issued q Ger
tihcatc Of election TO Hughes,
Mr., Parker contested on the ground
that the council had no right to go
back Of the face OF the returns, The
oase reached the supreme court where
recount of the ballots was made,
The recount showed that "a doubly
marked ballots had been counted for
Parker, The attorneys on both sides
agreed TO argue the case on the legality
Of these ballots, The court holds the
ballots are legal which gives Parker
majority of H.
This decision is Of great Importance
as 1t settles another question which
arises at nearly every polling place in
the state, The court says that where
the intention Of the voter is plainly ap-
parent markings, otherwise causing
faulty ballot, must be ignored and the
ballots be counted as such intention of
the voter appears,

EVERYTHING MOVING NOW.
transportation Facilities Again
Adequate to Business.
HOLIDAY BUSINESS GREAT.

New York, Jan, l3,-R, q, Dunn &
Co. b weekly review OF trade Of this
date says
With the unprecedented holiday busi-
ness ended the transporting facilities
are more nearly adequate for regular
requirements Merchandise moves TO
consumers more promptly, and in the
iron region there In less interruption
TO work because Of insufficient fuel,
Jobbing trade in woolens gradually
expands, new lines selling fairly at
moderate advances over prices pre-
vailing q year ago,
Worsted yarns are scarce and firm.
A further slight rise has occurred In
the average Of wool prices, and the
tone Is strong
Leather has sold freely at Boston,
with quotations fully maintained,
especially on hcmlock and union sole,
Chicago packers stubbornly hold TO
former list prices, but the market is
weaker both domestic and foreign
hides actually selling at concessions.
Reports OF unfavorable weather in
winter wheat regions stimulated prices,
and there was further support in the
general resumption OF activity at flour
mills, together with added inquiry for
foreign account, Total exports OF
wheat from the United States for the
week, -four included, were 4,l7O,9O9
bushels, which fell short OF the usually
free outgo OF 5,l50,7O5 bushels year
ago, but compare most satisfactory,
considering the ten per cent higher
prices now prevailing, The condition
Of many supporting influences took
quotations above the highest point last
year. Corn was fairly we'll held in
sympathy with wheat but some soft
spots developed, as was natural In view
OF the fact that the price is now more
than fifty per cent higher than year
ago, while Atlantic exports for the
week were 2l2,O4l bushels, against
4,543, 142 in 1901,
Failures for the week numbered 373
in the United States, against 324 last
year, and twenty-seven in Canada,
against thirty-scven last year.
