history and constitution? When Har-
riet Beecher Stowe created her Uncle
Toms Cabin, she proclaimed crusade
against human slavery, the effect of
which has been world. wide. When the
democratic national convention of 1896
adopted the Chicago Platform, it
aligned force which is necessary to
deal with the newly wrought powers of
consolidated wealth.
Silence, relative to the platforms
which hold that force together, was
the price demanded by the monopolis-
tic faction which continues to call
itself democratic. There was sharp
difference of opinion as to whether hsr-
mony at such price was at all desira-
BILE, but harmony at the price of silence
won on roll call of the counties by a
vote of 1884 to 344. While the vote of
Delaware county was cast with the
minority, and while we believe that the
men who supported Mr.. Bryan in 1896
and 1900 will mould the political future
of this nation, we are quite satisfied
with the outcome. The platform which
was adopted, while it does not con-
tain quite as much as we would like,
is, as far as it goes, an admir-
able democratic document. Then,
again, the party has an opportunity, in
an off year, to test the hitherto un
known strength of well known fac
ton. The men who have been hereto
fore refusing to support democratic
candidates, on account of their dislike
for the Chicago and Kansas City Plat
forms, have now no excuse for contin
uing to do so. On the contrary they
have the best of reasons for doing all il
their power to increase the democratic
vote.

The Strike in the Anthracite Coal Fields.

The Strike in the Anthracite Coal Fields.
The few men, who own or control the
great hard coal deposits in Pennsylva-
MIA and West Virginia, act and talk as
though they had the right to do as they
pleased with their property, and either
supply or refuse to supply the public
with coal. In this they are mistaken,
The Creator of that coal intended it for
the use of mankind, and no man or
number of men have the right to say
that it shall not be used for the pur.
poses intended by its Creator.
1t may be true that there is no law on
the statute books to reach these coal
bsrens, but that does not prove that the
people have not right to enact law
that will put an end to the conditions
which have become serious public
menace.
Law, in the broadcast meaning of the
term, is natural liberty or human will
just SO far restrained as the good of
society may require. Every person, who
is member of civilized society, must
surrender to the public all that is neces-
sary for the public good.
New laws regulating the use of prop
erty are being constantly enacted.
When changing conditions create pub
lie wants, the public reaches out and
takes what II wants That which nro-
duces the greatest good for the greatest
number is always justifiable.
The private owners of these coal
mines seem unwilling or unable to op-
crate them, and condition has arisen
which justifies the intervention of the
public. A special session of the legis-
latures of the states where the trouble
exists could easily enact laws that
would end the present difficulty and
prevent its recurrence in the future.

WAR GAME Is ENDED
nattleships and Cruisers Run tho Guns of
the Forts Guarding the City
of Newport H. I,


Newport, r. l., Sept. S.-The great
game of war, the first ever played ny
the army and navy, practically ended
att night by Il spectacular attack on
the forts guarding the entrance 10
Narragansett bay. Three battleships
and cruisers ran the guns of Forts
Adams and Wetherell, getting within
broadsidc range for all their guns be-
fore they were discovered.
The exploit was so daring, so reck-
less Theoretically, and so well exc
cuted that it is the general opinion
that Rear Admiral Higginson is en-
titled 10 the credit of winning q bril-
( liant victory. Army and navy experts
declare that nothing short of actual
WAR could be more spectacular than
Rear Admiral Higginson's attack on
the Narragansett forts. He had been
defeated in well planned attack dur
ing the afternoon. The army looked
for second attack, but was not ex-
pecting it so early in the night.
The searchlights We're kept at work
! in the perfunctory way, however, and
little before 10 o'clock they picked
up the ships standing into the harbor
under n full head of steam. They
came close in by the Narragansett
| Pier, and it was not until they had
/ passed eaver Tail point that the forts
I picked them up. With almost incredi-
! BILE speed the ships came ON, and the
! roar of the fight filled the city. The
/ forts We're firing with all the speed
they could muster, but the game at
such shopt range was against them,
for the ships had them at great adj
vantage in the number of their guns
/ as well as IN the caliber.

1t is hardly necessary to say that
Louis Murphy, the editor of the Tele-

at the price that was paid. He could
not, with the blood of his illustrious

struction cast dlscredit on any part OF

Her Brother Takes Possession of Them
Bartholin's Life in Iowa.
After the words sit was all Minnie
and I could do" in the foregoing,
there is an unintelligible scrawl, prob
ably intended to tell what it was,
and which relieves the words of any
imputation on Miss Mitchell as party
to the murder of Mrs. Bartholin. 1t is
apparent, however, that ! artholin and
Miss Mitchell shared in some trouble.
Several notes to Bartholin. signed m.
NJ and identified by William Mitch
ell as the handwriting of his sister,
were turned over to the brother, who
seemed eager to prevent their publica-
ton. One is addressed to Dear WILL"
and informs the recipient that she
could not meet him that night.
Two Of these missives are signed
Your darling sweetheart, Minnie"
All are dated in Chicago during April.
The confession was written on note
paper and dated Aug. 81, the day on
which Bartholin is believed to have
killed himself. The fugitive murderer
reached Riceville on Aug. 6, one day
before the discovery in Chicago of
the body of Minnie Mitchell, and three
days before the remains of his muir
dered mother We're found. He worked
half day on the railway bridge, then
registered at the Wilkes hotel here,
and pretending to be i'll kept his room
most of the time, leaving at the end
Of five days, when he went into the
country and got work ut harvesting.
Everybody was so busy in the coun-
try that little newspaper reading was
done, so he was pretty safe out there.
He worked a week for one man and
then three days for another. On Aug.
30 he returned to the Wilkes hotel, in
the afternoon. The next day. it is sup
posed, he killed himself. AT all events
1t is considered certain that he wrote
his farewell confession in the Wilkes
hotel on Aug. 30, before seeking the
spot at which he committed suicide.
