THE NEW YORK WORLD
The Most Widely Read News.
paper in America.

Time has demonstrated that the
Thrice-a- Week World stands alone in
its class. Other papers have initiated
its form but not its success. This is
because it tells all the news all the
time and tells it impartially, whether
that news be political or otherwise.
1t is, in fact, almost daily at the
price Of weekly and you cannot afford
to be without it,
Republican aud Democrat alike can
read the Thrice-a- Week World with
absolute confidence in its truth.
In addition to news, it publishes
tirst-class serial stories and other
features suited to the home aud
fire side.
The Thrice-a- Week Worlds regular
subscription price is only $1.00 per
year and this pays for l56 papers. We
offer this unequalled newspaper and
the PLAIN DEALER togeth one year
for Sl.70.
The regular subscription price of
the two papers is $500.

THE FIRST STEP FATAL.
skip subidy Bna Merely an .snterins
WedGe 10 Commit the Country,
to a Policy.

The Chicago Chronicle correctly es'
Inmates the effect Of the ship subsidy
bill should Its friends succeed in en-.
Gineering It through Congress.
According to an estimate which
seems to have been made by some
Advocate of the shipping grab bill
the total annual cost of our ocean
mail service under the provisions OF
the bill will be $4,700,000 and the an
nual receipts from all ocean postage
will be $3,0o0ooo, leaving an annual
deficit Of $1,7OO,00O on this account.
The amount to be paid for general
subsidies, estimated on the basis OF
the number of vessels In the foreign
trade in 1000, is placed at s1,072,oo0
and the amount Of the deep-sea fish
cries bounty at, $4,000.
This would mako total eSpendf-
ture Of f2,047,000 IN excess Of the
postal receipts
This may be o fasY estimate of the
cost at the outset. Let us not forget,
however, that the avowed object Of
the bill is to bring into existence q
great merchant marine: If it fails
TO accomplish this object fits advo-
Gates must admit that it is a failure.
Before the marine can become
great under it's provisions the cost
will be enormous. This Is virtually
admitted by the friends of the bill
In the senate when they voted down
the Pettus amendment limiting the
total expenditure under both its
branches to 100000 q year and
when they left the expenditure under
the general subsidy absolutely I'M
limited.
Nor SD ould we forget that this bill
as merely an entering wedge. It's pur-
pose is to commit the country to a
policy, as the London Times has
pointed out. Our own history shows
that when a policy OF aid to any in
Hustry has once been entered upon
more and more MD is demanded and
granted and that it ia next to impos-
sible to scrape off the Industrial bar
nacles.
The advocates OF the subsidy grab
understand this perfectly. They have
no idea of resting content with the
bill as it left the senate. It will not
be long before they will appear with
the plea that the measure has not
been Successful because congress has
been too stingy More will have to
be granted before we ear have that
oversee merchant marine which is
supposed to be SO essential to the mo-
tional welfare.
If at kast enough should be granted
to secure such Il marine the bounty
system would at once become as in
yiolable as the tariff, and for the
same reason. The beneficiaries and
their attorneys-would assure us that
q reduction of the bounties by the
smallest fraction would ruin our over
sea shipping, destroy our foreign
trade and plunge the country into
panic and everlasting ruin.
1t is the first step that is fatal in
all false economic policies, Tt should
be resisted to the utmost, because
when that step is once taken others
are sure to follow. What begins as
an infant in these eases is sure to de-
yelop into a gigantic master whose
exactions are continually growing
more intolerable.
The best time to quit paying SUBJ
sidies is before we begin.

POPULISTS WILL NOT
 JOIN REPUBLICAN PARTY

A letter published in a Marshall county newspaper. and sent to democratic head quarters yesterday, tends to show, the democrats claim, that the populists will not, as a rule, join the ranks of the re- publicans in the November election. The letter states that several populists att tended a mass meeting of the republicans in the seventh district, and that they voted against fusion with the republicans. The letter reads as follows:
 To the Populists of Marshall County:
 I was present at the populist meeting at the courthouse on the 11th-the mass meeting with republicans and populists taking part for the nomination of candi- dates for the legislature and county su- perintendent. There were three of us pop ulists present, James Wedgeworth, D. w. Jarrett and myself We voted against allowing our manhood to be swallowed by the republicans or any otker party voted no to the question of fusion with the republican party. We hold our honor and that of our children too sacred to allow Judge Street or any other leader to sell us into the party of trusts.
 The money power may give fat offices and promise great gains to all such, but we plain people will not be party to such bargain and sale.
 If the judge can get his son elected to congress by such practices he can do SO, but he does 1t at the loss of the respect of the rank and file of the populists.

 A minister's wife writes: Three years ago, while living at Rochester, N. Y., where my husband was pastor of one of the city churches, I was greatly reduced from nervous prostration and anaemia, and was compelled to go to well-known eastern sanitarium for my health. My stomach was in bad shape from badly selected food. I was a habitual user of Carbonate of Magnesia, and my physi- clans made every endeavor to break up this most damaging habit, but all to no purpose. W
 At the sanitarium was given Grape Nuts and learned the value of the food. I used it continuously eating 1t at nearly every meal, and my recovery was rapid. It's use enabled me to eat and digest food and to give up the drug habit, and I am now completely restored to good health.
