At the meetingof the National Live
Stock Association in Pittsburg last
week ]. B. Blanchard, of Omaha, read
paper on the Beef Trust. The COM
bination just formed, he said, requires
a capital of $4,000, 900 to absorb the
properties of the packing companies.
1t will require clear profit of nearly
100000 day to pay 3 per cent in
terest on this capital. After $780,
100000 more Of watered stock is added
it will take daily profit os about a
quarter of million of dollars to pay
4 per cent interest. when this COM
bination sees fit to begin operations. l"
said Mr.. Blatchford, "it will practi-
cally place a mortgage on every head
of live stock in the United States.
This mortgage will have to be paid by
the purchaser.

SENATOR SCOTT thinks that trusts
are a good thing. His Republican
fellow-Senator, the Hon. George F.
Hoar, doesn't agree with him, for in a
speech in Boston Monday night he
enumerated some of the evils Of the
trusts as follows:
l. Destruction of competition.
3 Management of industries by alb
sentee capital.
3. Destruction of local public spirit.
4. Fraudulent capitalization.
). Secrecy.
G. Management for the private bene-
fit of the officers.
T. Power to corrupt elections and in
some cases to corrupt the courts.
s. Indifference to public sentiment.
This is high Republican authority
for Senator Hoar is among the fathers
of the party. What does Senator
Scott have to say about it?

Political Notes.

The campaign is very warm in
Berkeley county, and the Democrats
say they are going to win next Tues
day.
Ex.President Cleveland advises
Democrats to use every endeavor to
elect Democratic House Of Repre-
sentatives on Tuesday next.
The Democrats of Pennsylvania say
that they will elect Pattison Governor
if they can shut out reasonable pro-
rortiou of fraudulent votes usually
manipulated in Philadelphia.
1t is said that some one has made
the Italians in the Fairmont coal re-
gion believe that Captain Dovener is
a relative of the late President Nc
Kinley, and they will all vote for him
for Congress.
Rev. DIR. George Edward Reed,
State Librarian of Pennsylvania, has
resigned his Office and declares him
self in favor of Pattison. He cant
stand for the corruption of the Quay
machine. DR.. Reed is also president
of Dickinson College.
The Democrats are hopeful Of car
rying New York next Tuesday. Bet
ting has heretofore been in favor of
Odell for Governor, but events of the
past few days have caused the sport
ing men to put up their money on Co.
Ter, the Democratic candidate.
The Democratic congressional COM
mittee of the second district of West
Virginia has forwarded to President
Roosevelt formal charges against In
ternal Revenue Collector Thomas E.
Davis, and United States Marshal
Charles D. Elliott, of Parkersburg, for
pernicious political activity in this
district. The charges are backed by
afidavits that Davis has been absent
nearly month, and that several of
his deputies have also been spending
the Governments time electioneerlng
for Congressman Dayton.

THE ISSUE NEXT TUESDAY.

A few months ago it was frequently
remarked by thoughtless persons that
there was no issue upon which the
Democratic party could 60 before the
people of the country. The campaign
just closing very completely refutes
this proposition, for the wayfaring
man, though fool, may see on what
ground the opposing parties stand.
The Democratic party, first of all,
declares that the trusts must go; that
they have become such an evil in the
hands of their greedy incorporators
that they are positive menace to our
free institutions; that if they are per-
mitted to grow in wealth and power
that they will become stronger than
the government itself; that it is ex-
tremely dangerous to permit such vast
power to remain in the hands of a few
private individuals. The Democrats
also stand for revision of the tariff,
and demand particularly that the tar
iff be taken from articles manufactured
by the trusts.
On the other hand, the Republicans
say that the trusts are not as bad as
represented-that some of them are
really good trusts. Senator Scott says
that the trusts distribute benefits to
the people. Mr.. Dayton thinks they
are not harmful, and he has publicly
announced that he would not vote to
remove the tariff from trust-made ar
ticles nor will he favor revision Of the
tariff in any respect. The Republi-
cans favor existing conditions and say
that the great business interests, trusts
and all, must not be disturbed.
The people will pass upon the issues
before them next Tuesday when they
cast their ballots for Congressman. If
a Democratic majority is elected, it
will be the entering wedge that even
tually will mean the regulating or the
destruction of the trusts. If the Re-
publicans return majority it will be
taken as an endorsement of the policy
under which these great combinations
flourish and they will become more
numerous and stronger than ever.
The independent voters appear to
favor the Democratic position this year
indeed, many Republicans, includ-
ing some of the most prominent in the
party, have declared for revision of
the tariff and restraint of the trusts,
but they are in minority.
The REGISTER makes no appeal to
partisan feeling, Sensible persons
may see for themselves the issues, and
they ought to thoughtfully vote for
the men who represent the side where
their interests lie. We recommend
that the voters cast their ballots for
John T. McGraw, the Democratic can
didate for Congress.

SENATOR SCOTT is progressing. A
year or two ago he said there were no
trusts. Now he admits that there are
such things, but he thinks that they
are benefit to humanity, and that
the benefits are distributed to the
workingman and other people. "The
trusts do not, in my estimation" said
he the other day, raise the prices of
their products unreasonably." Oh,
no. The Steel Trust, the Sugar Trust.
the Glass Trust, the Beef Trust, the
Coal Trust and all the other trusts are
only charging moderate prices, are
they?
We are afraid Senator Scott hasn't
been to market recently.

Jefferson and all Lovers of
Good Government.


The election of John 7. Nc
Graw, to Congress, is now as

men.

son as the Banner Democratic
County of the State must be
maintained. You are there

early On next Tuesday, No

and once more represented by

The Avalon Chapter Of the Daugh'
tiers of the Revolution met yesterday
at the residence of Mrs. S. S. Paine
422 West Biddle street. 1t was the
first social meeting this season, and
there was large attendance. An in

the presence of Mrs. Martha Herring.
ton, one of the few people living who
has met and has spoken to the great
General Lafayette. Mrs. Harrington
who is 80 years of age, in response tc
request, gave an account eff the &C.
currence.
The event occurred in the year 1925
in Leesburg, Va, when Mrs. Herring
ton, then little Martha Garford, was
the youngest pupil in the village
school. When news came that the
great Frenchman was to visit the
place great preparations were made
for his entertainment. When the
boys of the school planned to welcome
him, the girls,not to be outdone in pa
triotism, also made arrangements tc
show their honor and love for the man
who had done so much for their coun.
try, and the youngest pupil was Sc
lected to be the orator of the occasion
Upon the arrival of General Lafayette
Mrs. Harrington stepped forward. and
after reciting verses appropriate to the
occasion, laid a laurel wreath at hi
feet. The great man then stopped
and, lifting the wreath, kissed the
little donor.-Baltimaore american.

THE Coal Trust has issued circu-
lar announcing the prices at which
anthracite coal will be sold and regu-
lating the conditions of its sale and
delivery. An advance of fifty cents
ton is made by the operators to the
wholesale dealers. AS they will turn
out 100000 tons month, it will
thus be seen that the people are to
have extorted from them each month
$2,500,000 more than they have ordi.
narily paid heretofore. 1t will not
take the operators very long to make
up what the strike cost them.

awe think Vinol will help you,"
said our clerk. "Our folks at
home use it. We have such faith
in it that we will pay the money
back if it doesn't help you"
She took a bottle of Vinol home,
and has since bought bottle.
Vinol was sold last year on the
same guarantee. How many Gre
funds" were there, do you think !!
Less than two per cent.
In other words, Vinol did sue
cessful work in ninety-eight cases
out of one hundred.
For two great classes, those
who can't seem to gain strength
and those who are tired at nothing,
we say: "Try Vinol on our guar

For weak women, nursing moth
ers, old people, and puny children
we have found nothing to equal
Vinol.
