Movement Toward New York of Some $7, $50, ,OOo in Gold Gives
 Assurance of Relief in 3 Money Market.

NEW YORK, Sept i7.-speculative senti- ment was further improved in Wall street recovery The relief of the acute uneasiness over the money situation by the large engage ments of gold for import checked liquidatios' in the stock market and made 1t easier to mark up prices again. The volume of the actual buying demand was light. however, and the number of shares dealt in was larger than yesterday. The movement hitherward of some S7. $50 oCo in gold from various quar- ,ers gives scme feeling of assurance that re. lief will be at hand when the coming addi- tional requirements of currency by the in- teiior Will make it urgently needed.

pressive tax upon American con-
sumers, a tax which the trusts for
bid the republican party to abate.
With these truths plainly per-
ceived by American voters, the
next national campaign, fought on
the issue of the tariff and the
trusts, means a certain defeat for
the party of the tariff and trusts.
The American people are tired OF
paying tribute to monopoly. They
have made up their minds to re-
form the tariff and to restrict the
trust evil. The monopoly corpor-
atoms which oppose the will of the
people in this matter will prevent
their instrument, the republican
party,from carrying out the popular
will. The people must of neces-
sity intrust the task of tariff reform
and trust restriction to the demo-
cratic party, which has stood align
ed against the high tariff and the
tariff-created trusts from the be-
ginning.

Mr.. BABcocK KNOWS tine TRUTH

Mr.. BABc0cK KNOWS the TRUTH
Chairman Babcock Of the repub-
lican congressional committee was
warranted by the facts in the case
in expressing himself recently to
the effect that there is some uncer-
tainty as to the republican party
securing a majority in the next
Congress, but he should conhne
himself to these facts in discussing
the outlook.
The southern states will not by
any means relish Mr.. Babcock's
charge of fraudulent practices at
the polls as destroying hope of re-
publican success in that section.
"There are about 100 southern dis
tricts, soidly democratic" he is
quoted as saying, tin which exper-
fence has taught us the futility of
attempting to make a campaign,
and in many Of which republican
voters are either disfranchised, or
a free ballot and fair count de-
MED" ID
MI. Babcock knows we'll that
the peril of losing control of the
congress which convenes in DE.
cember, 1903, now confronted by
the republican party, is due to a
popular resentment of the rerub-
lican high tariff and subserviency
to the trusts.
Until a few months ago Mr..
Babcook, then properly represent
ing his own northwestern constit-
uency, was himself a ariff-revision
republican who had more than
once taken occasion to point out
the injustice Of the Dingley sched-
ules. The fact that he has been
both bulldozed and subsequently
wheedled into reversing himself on
the issue does not blind him to the
truth. The public sentiment in
favor Of a revision of the tariff is
no longer confined to democratic
voters. It is shared by many re-
publicans and will make itself felt
in the Congressional elections next
November.
This is<the situation which Mr..
Babcock's party must now face,
and no amount of bowling about
fraudulent elections in the south
can be made to Obscure the truth.

ISSUES ARE ALREADY MADE.

E
ISSUES ARE ALREADY MADE.
IF the democrats can succeed
in making anti-monpoly and tariff
reform the principal issue of the
pending campaign" says the Phil
adelhia Ledger (republican),
tthey will be able to direct an at
tack upon the most vulnerable
parts of the republican lines"
Thanks to the interesting rapacity
and bold arrogance of the trusts,
and to republican subserviency to
the dictatlon of the trusts, these is
sues are bling made for the demo-
cratic party. The American PEG.
pie are compelled to recognize the
truth that the monopoly evil must
be restricted and that the first step
must be a revision of the tariff.
They have been brought face to
face with the fact that prosperity
for the trusts is secured at The ex-
pense Of the people and that the
protection afforded BY a high
tariff is protection only Of the mon
Iopolies enjoyed by the trusts.
All that is necessary on the part
Of American democracy in such a
crisis is a simple reafirmation Of
its uncaanging attitude Of antagon-
ism to = high protective tariff and
of its continued adherance to the
genuinely democratic doctrine Of
sequal rights for all; special priv
leges for none:"
On this platform the democratic
party naturally and logically stands
as. the champion Of the people
against the unjustly privileged
trusts and the oppressive tariff
which created and now fosters the
trusts.
Voters cannot for an instant be
made to believe that the republican
party will effect tariff reform OF
take any action whatever tina,
threatens the trust monopolies.
The democratic party must be
looked to for such action.
An aggressive campaign on the
lssaSstAuS Will. mean VIC
tory for the democratic party.
The most vulnerable parts Of the
republican lines" are open to at.
tack. Voters themselves demand
THAT tariff reform and the restriic.
Ition of the trust evll BE the issues
of the campaigns Of 1909 and 1904.
Its for the democratic party e
lead the fight on these issues and
bring the party Of The tariff and
the trusts y deserved defeat Al the
polls.

DUCHESS OF SOMERSET.

LONDON, Dec. 4.-Her grace
the duchess of Somerset is most
widely known on account of her
distinguished position as the pre-
mier duchess" of England, but she
is the sort of woman who gets to
be heard about and admired wheth-
er she has a coronet or not.
Somehow, you hardly expect to
find duchess-let alone the duch-
ess whose title by its antiquity
gives her precedence over all those
OF her rank in England-playing the
part of real good fellow" The
phrase, however, is one that ef-
actly describes the duchess of Som
erset.
Probably no aristocratic couple in
the country have such good time
together as she and her husband,
the duke Of Somerset-or such ex-
citing ones, either! When his grace
goes, as he frequently does, after
big game, the duchess accompanies
him. She has been with him on
some decidedly dangerous expedi-
lions, most of them in the western
states of America, and out of their
joint experiences this versatile lady
of quality made book few years
ago which she called Impressions
:, of a Tenderfoot" She is a good
shot and she is brave. Once she
saved the dukes life by bringing
down with well-placed bullet a
