to be in flames. Mr.. Bryan always was

EJerry Simpson says there is no
reason why the democrats should feel
downcast. Since the populist party
was swallowed by the democrats, Jer-

for the democrats.-Cleve Leader.
UDuring the closing years of demo-
cratic rule, before the war. capitalists
got for the use of their money eight to
ten per cent, while now they are glad
to get three or four per cent. This re-
duction in the rate of interest, accom-
plished gradually under successive re-
publican administrations has been of
incalculable benefit to the people

Grover Cleveland as the advance

unlucky enough to happen along at

experiencing a grave setback, and
was also unlucky enough to get hope

REASON TO BE THANKFUL.
Great Prosperity of the American
People Set Forth In Presidents
Procla mc, ton.

President Roosevelt, in his Thanks
giving proclama ton, takes the posi-
ton that for 1875 years the American
people "have had on the whole more
to be thankful for than has fallen to-
the lot of any other people, says tho
Chicago Inter Ocean.
Each generation, he admits, has had
to bear its peculiar burdens and to-
face its special crises. but decade by
decade the people have struggled on
ward and upward" until now in
year of peace and overlooking plenty
1--WE are striving earnestly to achieve
moral and spiritual uplifting"
The president asks the American
people to render thanks for the great
prospe rity they are now enjoying
This will, of course. excite the wrath
of Mr. Bryan. Mr., Stevenson, Mr.. Hill
and otlaer democratic leaders VIII o con-
tend that we are not enjoying any
great Gegree of prosperity, and that
business men, manufacturers, and
farmers, employers and employees, are
permitting themselves to oe deceived
when they are led to believe that there
is any prosperity in the land.
The democratic leaders would have
the people believe that the country is
in very bad way, indeed, and that
there is nothing to be thankful for.
President Roosevelt, however, be-
lieves That in the last few years the
people have done very we'll indeed;
that they are in mood TO do better
still. and that they have much to be
thankful for in the past and in the
present. Here is another case in
which the people stand with Roose-
welt.
EThe promptness with which the
democrats have shut off the talk from
their newspapers and stump speakers
on The trusts is significant. The re-
publicans are doing all the. talking on
the trusts that amounts 10 anything
They are enforcing the present anti
trust law, and are preparing to frame
better one if this one fails. As they
have the power, the inclination and
the brains to carry out their promises
on this point. there is nothing of con-
sequence for the democrats to say on
the trusts. Everything which they
would be able to say would only make
republican yotes.--St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

and the illusion is due to a trick of
the weaver's art.
Tucking, cording and strapping, are
all much used for trimming.
The tailor7made costumes have, hap
PLY, returned to that severe simplicity
which constituted their greatest
charm. The relief of little gold and
a touch of red, give some of them
quite military appearance.
We are all truly thankful for the
revival of the short walking skirt,
whether it be plain, killed, or made
in a three-decker style. Skirts
are no longer plain over the hips.
They have yokes' of passementerie,
cording, tucking, or three rows of
ribbon or passementerie, the third one
forming sort of ceinture or belt.
The cut of skirt now becomes a
study for the dressmaker who wants
to suit her customer. She may elect

a Welghty one.
We must be guided, not only by fash
ion, but by our own individual style.
The woman who is slim cannot dress
like her stouter sister, for the ma
terial chosen often affects the appear
ance of the figure to a great extent.
Therefore the slim woman may in

terials which have a sort of shot sill

checks, are permissible. OF these
there is an endless variety in brown
and blue, red and green, purple and
golden brown, while some are in the
crudest colorings. The deep reds now
SO much worn are, in reality, best
suited to blondes. We have them this
season in every possible material.
Satin cloth, with its rich, glossy sur
lace, is. a. great favorite; but, here,
again, the slender ones carry the day,
for all shiny surfaces increase the
size of the figure.

SAY MONEY is
NEEDED MOST
Prominent Officers Talk of Means of
Improving State
Guard.

Down at Springfield they appear to
think that the national guard needs
something and TO the end of finding
out what. one of the Springfield pa
pers during the recent encampment
of the Third brigade, to which the
Sixth regiment and Company \ of
this city belongs, interviewed some
of the officers who have been long
in the service on the question. This
is what Col. ID. Jack Foster. of the
Sixth, said:
Il have been in the guard for 25
years. We have very efficient.
compact and well-disciplined regi-
ment. All the companies that serv-
ed through the war are still with
me. We have little friction. There
is spirit of the right kind among
men and officers. The national guard
needs money, there is no disputing
that. But. after all, we should not
complain or criticise. This state has
been more generous with its men
than any other western state. The mi
Iitia has established its right to consid-
Grafton. Rifle practice at home, more
frequent inspection of companies,
more inducement to the men 10 turn
out and drill, a longer tour of duty
here at camp are necessary to bring
the guard up to the standard it
should attain
Brig. Gen. William Clendenin. of the
Third brigade. is inclined to think
the question is one of finances more
than anything else. He said:
The guard needs just what we
all need-money. The state ought to
be more liberal with the men who
give their time gratuitously to this
service. We need better armories.
We need rifle ranges. We need bet
ter equipment and rifles. We are
getting these slowly. The guard has
wonderfully in the last few
years and there is no comparison
now with its very humble beginning.
The guard is plenty large enough
for all purposes"

LARGE QUANTITY OF DYNAMITE
Believed TO Indicate Presence of Or
ganized Band of Rob-
bers.

Burglars will think of almost every
place they can to hide their tools and
swag, but few of them would have
thought of the inside of tombstone
as ii appears a band who have their
headquarters in Natick yards have
done.
Several days ago Harry Oldefest,
son of Sexton Oldefest of the River
side cemetery, Moline, removed one
of the name plates on a metal m0nu-
ment in the. old cemetery just for fun.
and 10 and behold, what should come
TO light but aIFude set of burglars
toolsI mThe SET contained a Breast
brace, half dozen bits of various
sizes. candles. drill chuck. a COM
mon hack saw and parts of an old
railroad lantern. The boy reported
the matter to his father. but Mr.
Oldefest thought little of the matter
until yesterday when he recalled the
words of his son and asked him if the
tools were still there. Upon investi-
CATION they were found and removed.
Then the sexton remembered that
there was 4 similar monument i'm the
new graveyard and started upon a
tour of discovery. Upon removing
the name plate on the other tomb
stone there came to light 100 sticks
of dynamite. - bits of different sizes
for boring purposes, 20 punches of
fuse wire and two cold chisels. The
contents of both stones were remov-
ed to the police station.
Seems to he Organized Gang.
1t is not known whether the rob-
bers had some designs upon any of
the banks or stores in the tri-cities or
whether they made Natick their |
because it is in such |
close proximity TO the railroad by |
which it would be comparatively |
easy to do their jobs out through the |
country and run into the city until
the trouble was over. Then another
theory is that the numerous robber- |
les that have taken place in the three |
cities. during the past few months |
have been committed by an organized |
gang who have their headquarters at !
Natick.
