speeches never once referred to th4re-
publican campaign text book, nor Tor
that matter does any other campaign
orator that has SO far been heard from.
Was all the time and labor Of the COM
piler Of that interesting production in
vain? Are all the reputed facts and
figures to be buried in the junk shop7
The president openly rebuked the con-
gressional committee that issued the
campaign book by discussing the very
matters that were omitted from that
interesting production, such as Cuban
reciprocity and the reciprocity treaties.
He also took issue with the committee
on the tariff and trust questions.
With the president on the stump re-
futing the arguments put forth by
the republican committee in its off,

II r pleasing to know that some 1t
least Of the republican leaders who had
come to look on Mr.. Roosevelt ~ =
"treuble hunter are, since his speech
at Cincinnati, praising him for his
'"conseryatism." This is based cEiefy
on the very emphatic manner in which
the president made it plain that he had
no intention OF advocating the only
practical present curb on the evils at
tending the trusts namely, the with
drawal from them Of the favors Of the
tariff. But without this most recent
demonstration of his purpose not to
interfere with the idol of his party
there does not seem to have been any
thing in the propositions of Mr.. Roose-
velt that need alarm the most timid of
the politicians, says the New FORK
Times. After giving effect to all the
qualifications on which he insists there
is not much left to his speeches. Take
his latest and most carefully elabor-
ated utterance at Cincinnati. Suppose
that he had contented himself with a
statement in substance as follows:
''No one. knows exacly what is meant
by trusts There are good ones and
there are bad ones. I do not know ex-
actly how to tell them apart. do not
know precisely what the evils of the
bad ones are. Whatever they may be,

remedy them. do not know exactly

Informed republican newspaper, the
RecordHerald, that the president is
at the point of open rupture with Sec
retary Shaw and that the latter may
resign from the cabinet. That there
were differences between the president
and Mr.. Shaw as to tariff revision has
been suspected"
This information is doubtless cor
rect as far as the differences bout the
tariff, but that Shaw will resign from
the cabinet must be an exaggeration.
He may be forced out, he might die,
but he will never resign. Why, Shaw
never had such a soft snap in his life
before. With Wall street giving him
taffy and working him for favors Shaw
will not quit such a delicious job. Then
think of all the glories of the ''Wash-
ington season" that is in store for the
Shaws. What, retire to the Iowa corn
fields; not much. Shaw will talk pro-
lection or free trade, trust control or
free trusts, but resign, never.

Castro seems to have kept the line
of retreat to the United States open.
The latest developments in his quar-

use this country as a refuge from
his enemies. Castro's overthrow
might bring peace to Venezuela for a
few weeks or months, but so did his
victory when he went to the head OF

Enouxh to Confuse.

It appears from the campaign
speeches that all the good things which
have come upon the country are due to
the Dingley tariff; all the bad things
are the result of natural laws. over
which the republican party has had no
control. Thus, while republican policy
has caused good crops and general
prosperity, it has had nothing to do
with the growth Of trusts, which
merely illustrate universal tendency.
The general advance of prices indi-
Gates the prosperity flowing from the
tariff; if wages and salaries have not
advanced correspondingly, it is be-
cause they are controlled by the law
of supply and demand. 4 similar dis
tinction runs through the whole po-
litical and economic field. If not al
ways convincing: it is most convenient.
Yet sometimes it is little confusing
to the logical mind. d.-Philadelphia

The movements Of the Frisco and
the Southern in Mississippi will be
watched with the keenest interest
from now on. There is no doubt
that the strongest antagonism exists
between the two systems, and the re-
cent consultations and railroad
changes in this State have brought
the two systems into competition.
In its efforts to get to the gulf the
Frisco projected the New Orleans &
Mississippi Midland road, which was
to run from Pontotoc to New Or
leans, paralleling the Illinois Cen
tral and going right into competition
with the Central.
To checkmate this scheme the IL
linois Central Immediately projected
the Memphis & Mobile line, which
was to run from Grenada to Hatties-
burg and connect with the Mobile,
Jackson & Kansas City. At this
crisis the Frisco and the Central ev-
identity came to terms and the Gen.
trail made over it's interests in the
Mobile, Jackson & Kansas City line
in consideration of the abandonment
of the New Orleans & Mississippi
Midland project by the Frisco. :
No sooner had the Frisco taken
over the Mobile, Jackson & Kansas
City and the Gulf & Chicago than
the Mobile & Ohio passed into the
hands of the Southern. When the
Mobile, Jackson & Kansas City il
completed to Pontotoc the Frisco
will be connected with Mobile and
will have line paralleling the No
bile & Ohio through this State.
