 Those democrats who are reviling the trusts appear to have forgotten how the democrats surrendered, horse, foot and dragons, to the de- mands of the sugar trust, when tue Wilson bill was before the senate.
 The democrats have left a good opening for the election of three good citizens of this county as mem- bers of the legislative assembly. It does not need to be a political affair either, but a question of good repre- sentative citizenship.
 The provisions which President Roosevelt has imposed on the Con- mercial Pacific Cable company are typical of the protection which the people may expect against the un- reasonable demands of mOnopolies, so long as the administration is re- publican.
 Democrats of the eighth Ohio dis trict have endorsed the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson, W. J. Bryan, free silver and home rule for Ohio. By the way this re- minds us that our democratic friends in this territory have not mentioned "l6 to l" in their platforms this year.

 SOur contemporary devotes consid- erable space this morning in telling what good man w. A.

 King Alfonso of Spain persists in his determination to marry none but an American heiress. Princesses of Europe's royal houses are mentioned to him in vain.

There are probably American heiresses who would marry the young scapegrace sprig of roy alty if given an opportunity.
 Senator Teller of Colorado made speech at the democratic state con vention of Colorado, in which he Said: "When I left the republican party in 1896 1 should then have affiliated myself with the democratic organiza- tion, as I desired to do. But it was deemed wiser that I affiliate with the silver republicans. My sentiments have always been democratic, as they were before Lincoln's time. It was on the question of slavery that left the democratic party and affiliated with the republicans. 1 always diff, fered from the republicans on the financial question, and have voted with the democrats in the senate on every important measure more than any other republican. Lincoln in his ideas and sentiments, was the great est democrat this country ever had" It has been apparent for several years that the democrats were pre- saring to claim Lincoln as a demo- crat, and it has remained for Teller, who admits that he has been almost everything politically, to make the announcement. The present gener- ation with their memories still fresh with the villifcation heaped upon him during his life by the democratic party, will scarcel y accept Mir. Tel lers ipse dIxit as correct history.
