She did not seem surprised at his

Although it is not exactly drawn
in accordance with his ideas and opin-
ions, still Governor Toole decided to
sign the flair trial. bill and make it
a law by executive approval, consider
ing it, with all the faults he found
in it, to be better than the bill Of
like nature he felt constrained to
veto at a former session. Even those
who most strongly favored passage OF
such a bill as that to which he gave
the power and effect of law, agree
with the governor that in the matter
of the number of judges that may be
disqualified by afidavits of prejudice
or bias the legislature acted entirely
too liberal, as now each side to a
suit at law has the right of five chal-
lenges. Come to think of it, it is rather
a hare arraignment of the judiciary
OF the state to pass a law of that sort,
as 1t is equivalent to saying that in
all probability cases are likely to arise
when it will be necessary to pass over
ten judges and try a cause before he

THE FIGHT ON ROOSEVELT.

THE FIGHT ON ROOSEVELT.
1t is undoubtedly true, as a demo-
cratic contemporary charges, that an
organized fight is making against the
nomination of President Roosevelt.
In fact, it might have gone further
and said that two fights of that kind
are in progress. One is the fight OF
the democratic party and the other
that waging by certain monied inter-
ests in the east. Aligned with the
latter undoubtedly are some republi-
cans, as we'll as democrats, but it is
scarcely adhering to the truth to de-
signate them as leaders or as men OF
exceptional prominence in their party.
But there are real leaders arrayed
against him. They are in command OF
the trusts and railway corporations
and not all of them are republicans,
as the contemporary referred to would
have it's readers believe.
A recent dispatch sent from Wash
ington by Walter Wellman, a CORE
spondent who enjoys the reputation
of knowing pretty much everything
that is going on at the national capt.
tai, whether above or below the sur
face, throws more light on the nature
of the opposition to President RoOse-
Welt and the men who are behind it.
idea of the estimate placed on their
strength, both by themselves and the
president. The Wall street opponents
of Roosevelt approached him with an
offer to withdraw their opposition it
he would give them certain assurances
as to his future course. Their offer
was rejected with the vehemence and
d%irectness characteristic of the man to
whom it was made. OF course, this
angered the men of wealth and they
withdrew, more determined than ever
to bring about his defeat. They had
become desperate and decided to try
a desperate remedy. This was moth
ing less than to bring out Senator
Hanna for the nomination. But this,
too, failed. The shrewd Ohioan was
not to be caught by any such offer.
He knew what it meant to go before
the people of the nation as the can
didate Of Wall street and backed by
the support of the lilly whites" OF the
south. Even discrediting Hanna's re.
peated declarations that he does no
aspire to the nomination, the fact
remains that he knows better than
any man that with such a backing
behind him defeat certain and over
whelming would follow his candidacy.
The failure of the mission of the
embassy from Wall street was follow

request of the senator. The requests

The market was almost entirely pro-
fessional. The sole support came from
extended short interest, but the policy
of the larger interests was to hold bust
ness in check until public confidence
has become assured.
After two hours of more CT less ac-
tivity, the market showed signs of soft
ening Predictions were freely made
that a reaction would follow the buoy
ant opening, while other prophecies
were that the rally would continue for
day or two.
1t remains to be seen what effect the
revolution in Panama will have on
stocks. If this mornings market were
to be taken as a gauge, the rebellion
and its financial contingencies will be
ignored, as an influence. The news was
