sha, stated Tuesday afternoon that his
people would be ready and willing to
merge their interests with those of the
New Citizens Telephone and Tele-

go ahead and build an independent ex-
change in Kenosha, we will be willing
to give them every possible aid"
It is understood that the company
represented by Mr.. Heinroth and Mr..
Sterling is interested in the construc-
ton of the exchanges, and for this rea-
son it will make little difference to
them who builds the exchange, so long
as the company represented by them
is given chance to bid on the mate
rails for the new line.
At the time of the fling of the arti-
cles of Incorporation, Mr.. Cavauagh,
who was leader in the organization
of the Citizens Company, stated that
the company was not seeking union
with any other company now in the
field, and if his company desires a
franchise for an exchange it is proba-
BILE that it will ask one from the Coun-
Gil direct.

ON A SERIOUS CHARGE.
Martin Brucker and Mrs. Louisa Jordan
Arrested on Tuesday Evening.

Arrested on Tuesday Evening.
Martin Brucker, Main street tailor,
and Mrs. Louisa Jordan, wife of Fred
erick Jordan, have little chance of a
merry Thanksgiving day, as they are
now occupying cells at the county Jail
awaiting someone to put up bond of
five hundred dollars for their release.
Both were arrested on Tuesday after
noon by Chief of Police Timme on a
charge of adultery, the complaint hslv-
ing been made by the husband of the
woman Late in the afternoon they
were arraigned before Justice Stewart
and took a continuance of the case
until Friday. The Justice placed the
bail at $500 in each case, and not being
able to furnish it both were bundled off
to Jail. It is claimed that most SEN
sationa1 evidence will be brought out
in connection with the case.
It will be remem bered that Mrs. Jor-
dan was connected with similar case
a few years ago, and that her para
mour, a man by the name of Smith,
was sent to Waupun; where he is now
serving a term. At that time Mrs.
Jordan was too i'll to appear in Court,
and the case against her was dropped.

THINKS PRESIDENT IS
HELPING THE DEMOCRATS
Congressman Clayton Says His Anti
trust Campaign Will Hurt His
Own Party.

From Washington to New York Times.
Representative Henry d. Clayton OF
Alabama, who was in Washington to-
day in speaking Of the trust question,
said:
Every time President Roosevelt de-
Iivers himself on the trust question he
does two things-he makes Democratic
votes, and he lessons his own chances or
being nominated. 1t might be said that
he is also doing another thing by his
trust campaign-he Is undoubtedly max
ing a division in the ranks OF his own
party.
Those who listen to the Presidents
trust doctrines know that they are rep
resented In party politics only by Demo-
Gratis He is plugging our game, and
we do not want him to stop. When he
gets the people educated and aroused to
the necessity of action by Congress on
this question: thing which not only ne,
but the Democratic party Is doing-these
same people will have also come to realize
that the Democratic party Is the only
hope they have for the accomplishment
of this purpose.
ut is not necessary to discuss the
Presidents personal loss or gain in the
matter That is a responsibility which
he assumes himself. II he is able to make
the people believe that he Is powerful
enough to regulate the trusts without the
aid Of his party in Congress. well and
good. One thing Is certain. however, he
will not be able to convince the public
that he has the support Of his party on
this question"

they wait the orders of the leader. Here
and there a few men can be cecured to
work breakers and mine coal. More can
be had to work the washeries, by which
the old culm banks are gone over anew
and some inferior coal is obtained. But
the great mass OF men stand by their
leader and have made him a patron
saint of their industry.
All this is strange, for when the men
and women talk they show clearly that
they have little hope that they will win
the fight. They do not say SO hopeiessly,
but they cheerfully admit that circum-
stances are too strong for them:

4 pLurocnArrc oprN1oN.

True to the instincts of the plutocrat.
Senator Hanna takes the position that
street franchises ought to be perpetual
instead Of for term Of years. That -.
when city grants q street railway COM
pany. for example. the right to use the
streets, It should sell that right abso-
luteiy, instead OF limiting the time. This
opinion Is in direct line with the In
stincts Of corporate greed everywhere.
The theory il that the corporation shall
have the profits and all the increase in
values for all time to come.
We doubt II the people, or those who
really represent the people. will see the
matter in this light. 1t is well known
that In all progressive cities the value Of
franchise Of this character Is coptin-
ually advancing as the city grows and
prospers. 1t ought to, be equally plain
that the citizens who pay the taxes
should reap at least a portion Of the
benefits of such increase in value. A
franchise for twenty-five years is a lib
eral one. During that time in q grow
ing city the commercial value would
probably be doubled, and 1t is an out
Gems getting any benefit from that rise.
But. argues the Senator. the recurring
scrambles to secure the extension Of lin
tied franchises are of the most demon
alizing character" No doubt Of the
truth of that deliverance. When city
and State Legislatures nave to be bought.
there Il no doubt about the demoraliza-
ton. Pennsylvania. and especially Phil
adelphia. furnishes q good example Of
this generalization. where II has cost
millions of dollars to buy up enough law
makers to secure profitable franchises.
The city Of st. Louis is just now fur
nishing a shining example of the de-
moraiization attending the securing OF q
street franchise. Indictments found. evil
dence produced and confessions made
promise the unearthins Of such rascaiity
as has hardly been heard of in any city
since the exposure Of the Tweed scandal
In New York thirty years ago.
Yes. we admit the Generalization as
long az there are corporations or indi-
viduals without honesty who want IRAN
chises. and lawmakers without con-
science who sell themselves and the
franchises together. If a corporation is
disposed to be Just. and the authorities
of q city are strictly honest franchises
can be granted and secured for limited
terms OF years and on such conditions
as win be mutually beneficial. The
perpetual franchise plan is naturally
pleasing to Hanna. but ought not to find
favor with those who have the welfare
of the people at heart.

triumph in the November elections.
I'VE expected It. Mr.. Grfggs said last
evening to a reporter for The New York
Times, who saw him at the Hoffman
House. I'VE had an idea the Republican
plurality In Maine would run up between
5000 and $4,000. We made no effort to
carry the State. For the Democrats to
try to carry the State Of Maine would be
about like the Republicans trying to car
