UNPOPULAR WITH TRUST MAGNATES.

The Wall street barons and mag
mates have pledged themselves to do
all in their power to defeat President
Roosevelt if he is renominated for a
second term. They are striving to
encompass his defeat at any cost.
Perhaps they will only make his sue
cess inevitable, but that is impossible
to predict at present. If the people
the masses-will stick as firmly and
as closely to President Roosevelt and
his interests as he has stood by them
in the bold fight he has made and will
make in their behalf against trusts
and combinations, his election is now
assured and nothing can stem the tide
in his favor. The following clipping
from an editorial in the Wall Street
Journal shows that our President
has incurred the great displeasure of
the capitalists of Wall street:
There are many signs pointing to
the fact that the presidential cam
paign of 1904 has already been started
so far as the large financial interests
are concerned. Some time ago we
directed attention to the fact that
what are known as the large financial
interests in Wall street are bitterly
opposed to President Roosevelt's con-
tinuation in Office, and are determin-
ed to defeat him, if possible, in the
convention or at the polls. AS time
goes on this becomes even more plain.
OF late, more over, it is becoming clear
that the official Wall street candidate
has already been selected on the Dem
ocratic side, with whom it is, no doubt,
hoped to beat Mr.. Roosevelt should
he be nominated.
We find the columns of our bril-
liant contemporary, the Sun, full of
information on this whole matter. 1t
has taken the lead in opposition to
the President, and within the past
two or three weeks has been at much
pains to inform the country of the
solid merits of Judge Alton B. Par
ker as the strongest Democrat now
before the public. According to the
Herald, some wagers have already
been made respecting Judge Parker's
candidacy and its probable results.
1t is probably fair to say that Judge
Parker is the man with whom Wall
street hopes to beat Mr.. Roosevelt
provided that one of Mr.. ROosevelt's
own party does not beat him in the
convention. Anything to beat
Roosevelt is clearly the motto of
the powerful financial interests in the
street. so far as 1904 is concerned,
What is the fault that Wall street
finds with President Roosevelt? Diff
ferent answers would no doubt be
given to this question by different
people. Some would say that the
President was dangerous because he
was impulsive and erratic; some affect
to consider him demagogue because
of his attitude on the trust question
and on the coal strike; all would agree
in saying that he was not to be con-
trolled by anyone. 1t seems to us
that this last is the crux of the mat
ter. No particular fault was found
with the President previous to his
Intervention in the Northern Securi-
ties case year ago. His action in
that matter opened the eyes of the
financial powers, and did it in the

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

SIMON YANDES.

Simon Yandes, who died yesterday, had
for a long time been one of the most con-
spicuous citizens of Indianapolis. and he
was conspicuous for reasons the very oppo-
site of which make many men so. He was
noted for his Observation-Disclosures, his dis
like of publicity. the simplicity of his hab
its and his consistent practice of old-fash-
he added infiexible integrity, a keen sense
of honor, a high standard of civic and
patriotic duty and a constant recognition
of religious obligations. These virtues go
to the making of fine character, but they
are not apt to win popular applause or
honors. Mr.. Yandes did not care for these.
1t was enough for him to live up to his
standards as well as he could and to have
the approval of his own conscience. He
never sought Office, and he did none of the
acts by which political honors are usually
obtained. Yet he was an ardent Repub-
lican and asked no other reward for his
lifelong support of the party but the assur-
ance he felt that he was thereby contribut-
ing to the public welfare. During the many
years that Mr. Yandes practised law he was
known as scrupulously honest practi-
toner, and he stood high at the bar. Dur
ing long life of close attention to busi-
ness and strict economy he accumulated
a large property and made liberal gifts to
educational and religious purposes, though
he was not given to indiscriminate char
ity. He was a man of most amiable char
acter and gentle disposition, and, though
reserved with strangers, was very COM
panionable with friends. He possessed a
large fund of dry humor, and before age
began to tell upon him he used to enjoy
exchanging badinage and jokes with his
friends, sometimes, even, at his own ex-
pense The late Hon. Albert G. Porter
once nicknamed him ''Simonides the JUST
"a friendly tribute to his infiexible integ-
rity and purity of character. Mr.. Yandes
never married, and in view OF his con-
spicuous career many persons will think he
did not get much out of life. bat he left
behind him a noble record of plain living
and high thinking, monument more en-
during than brass of upright character and
stainless life.

REPORT OF THE CITIZENS LEAGUE

The report of the executive committee of
the Citizens League on the qualifications
and fitness of candidates is a new departure
in the politics OF this city. AS it is impos-
sible in a city of this size for any person
TO know all or even a majority of the can
didates in any election, whatever tends to
throw light on their records and fitness for
office should be helpful to voters and well
coined by them. The fair presumption is
that persons nominated for office by either
party possess reasonable degree of quail
fications. Primaries and nominating con-
ventions are in themselves citizens COM
mittees and it is to be presumed they do
as well as they know how The creation
of citizens league to pass upon their
work multiplies the machinery of politics,
and may or may not lead to better results.
The committee which has made the investi-
cation in the present case is composed OF
citizens of high standing and its report
implies a large amount of labor, but it
does not throw any useful light on the
situation or add anything of value to the
literature of the campaign. Public interest
is chiefly conferred on the candidates for
mayor, and, on this point, the report does
not throw a particle of light. Everybody
expected it to condemn Mr.. Bookwalter and
indorse Mr.. Hoffman. and so 1t does.
Everybody expected 1t to recapitulate the
newspaper charges against Mr.. Bookwalter
and to group them effectively as posi-
BILE, and it has done so. Everybody expect
ed it to belittle the charges of official de-
linquency against Mr.. Hoffman while pros
ecutor and emphasize the promises of re-
form he Is now making, and so il does. In
short. everybody anticipated exactly the
sort of report the committee has made re-
garding the candidates for mayor, and the
verdict of the public will be that it was
hardly worth while to take so much time
and go through so much perfunctory labor
in order to reach conclusions so clearly
foreshadowed.
Outside of the candidates for mayor the
report does little more than recapitulate
records and votes which are already public
property, and then add it's approval or dis
approval, which, after ALL is a matter of
opinion. The Journal ventures the opinion
that the report will not have any material
effect on the course or outcome of the cam
paign.

City government In the United States has
become so corrupt that it is appalling.
Shall Indianapolis suffer this evil? Shall
she have decent, honest, economical gov
eminent, with an honest and equal enforce
ment of laws? or, shall her taxpayers be
plundered for the benefit of corrupt rings
and grafters, while her police force and
court officials dispense favors to law
breakers in return for corrupt contributions
of money and political influence? The first
upward step for Indianapolis is, We believe,
for voters, whether Republican, Demo-
cratic or Prohibition. to disregard party
ties at city elections in so far as to vote
for the best men. A sufficiently large body
of independent voters uniting to rebuke and
punish official corruption, grating, ring
rule. boodling and protected vice will
strengthen the influence of good men
in each party and weaken the influence of
bad men. We believe that decided stand
of this kind would encourage good men
to become candidates for office.
1t costs about a million and a quarter
dollars each year to run the city of Indian
apolis. An economical administra ton
means lower taxes and less debt; while a
reckless administration means higher taxes
and more debt. A careful expenditure of
this million and a quarter dollars and an
impartial enforcement of the laws are the
only questions in the coming election which
concern the voters of this city.
In view of the argument, that city cleo
ton affects State and national politics,
every voter should remember that I'M
broken series of elections in this city has
demonstrated that they have no effect
whatever upon State and national elections.
In every city election some good men and
some bad men are nominated by each
party. Let political managers be taught
that honesty is the best politics. by de-
feating the unworthy and electing the
worthy candidates, no matter on what
ticket they appear.
The Citizens League undertakes to ex-
anime without partisan bias the qualfica-
tions of candidates, and to make a candid
report to the public thereon, to the end
that independent voters may act with unity
and intelligence.
1t is a safe rule that men of proved
inefficiency or dishonesty should not have
their acts ratified by reelection. The
recommendations of the League are to the
tinuous effort for the enforcement of law
and the suppression of vice. lower taxes.
economy in government and honesty in
public contracts.
In doubtful cases we have made no
recommendation and in some instances the
best that can be accomplished is not all
that may be desirable.
lit will be encouraging IL this election
shall show an increased number of con-
scientious voters who will vote for the best
men, regardless of party ties.

to remark that the ultimate result of the
present trouble in the Balkans would be

forms acceded to by the Porte last winter,
intimating that the Turkish efforts to in
stitute these reforms have been ineffective.

ments will shortly follow.

note seems to mean that the two powers
will take the matter directly into their
own hands and restore peace in Macedo-
