PUT ON YOUR THINKER.

The presence Of William Ran
dolph Hearst in Washington City
recently accompanied by former
Governor Budd, Of California, who
launched his boom for the Demo
cratic nomination for the Presi-
dency at the big Jefferson Jackson
Lincoln barbecue in Columbus,
Ohio, on the 18th of February,
has started the Democratic talk
again on Presidential possibilities.
A number Of the leaders Of the
party here are beginning to take
the Hearst boom seriously and are
quoting what Governor Budd said
when he launched the boom. In
that connection it may be interest
ing to know the Governors rea-
sons for choosing Mr.. Hearst as
his candidate, and this is what he
said:
"And we, Mr.. Bryan, in the
West, have as our champion the
man that that VIC believe has lonc
most for the cause of the common
people, the man who, in the fight
when the treasurers deserted you,
came to your succor and stood an
able lieutenant under your orders;
the man who has spent more
money and done more in aiding
the cause Of the plain people in
these United States than any other
man; the man who fought all his
life for national eight-hour law,
for an income tax, for national APP
preparations, for schools; the man
who in court and out of court has
fought the trusts; who has risked
his mighty papers in the interest
of organized labor who has flood
ed the United States with journals
that daily speak to millions, the
doctrines preached by Bryan and
the fathers; the man who furnish
ed the evidence t at forced that

MAKEIT THE BEST AND
PUBLISH THE FACTS


A few days ago conversation
took place between a gentleman OF
one city and woman Of another.
The gentleman spoke of the pro-
oress Of his town. of the order.
of the cleanness, and likewise the
woman spoke Of her town. There
was in the same group another
person, he was going west and
was talking of the town he had
left behind. The business to his
mind was not good, with many
things going to the bad. An
other two were together, they
were drummers and spoke Of the
same town, saying: "Say what
you please of Mt. Sterling, with
divisions among her people, with
their sharp criticisms nearly going
up to the danger line. 1t is the
finest business town in Kentucky.
The one going away failure here
because he did not fit the place,
doing damage as he talked the
others giving out what we are
measured from in business stand
point. 1t is the business Of every
citizen to see to it that we have an
orderly city, clean and that every
interest be pushed to its utmost,
that the spirit of enterprise be en-
couraged and the outside world
find out from us that we are
prosperous people, that we have
advantages and what they are.
Mt. Sterling is business place.
her cattle, horses aud mules sales,
her poultry, eggs and hide bust
ness, her mills and machine shops,
her tobacco factories, her receipts
and shipments OF tobacco, corn,
wheat. ETC., her bank accounts,
business among merchants, whole
sale and retail, go to show of our
business thrift and commercial in
terests. The business that would
succeed, the town that would
thrive must be Of even weights, and
confidence lost from the thought
less talker is hard to restore, and
no interest without it can move on
and up.

HOW TRUSTS BUILD.

If any serious action is to be
taken against the trusts dear fell
low-citizens, the action will have
to be taken pretty soon. Please
believe that before many years
shall have passed the man who ad-
vocates interfering with the trusts
and their reckless operations viii
be looked down upon as a dan
gerous agitator and an enemy OF
property.
Today the average citizen is in
favor Of curbing the trusts, or at
lacking them through the tariff,
or taxing them, Of worrying them
into decency, because, today, it is
understood that a few powerful
trust builders own the trusts, col
lect the trust profits, and that any
trust regulation will be at the ex-
pense of these very rich men
But, very rapidly indeed, and
very intelligently, these big trust
men are putting themselves in a
safe and strong position.
They know the American citi-
zen very well, and they know that
out ola hundred citizens in this
age Of competition, and Of anxiety
for the future, at least so per cent.
think with their pockets. The
trusts are establishing for them
selves millions Of little footholds
on millions Of American pockets.
And you will find it very hard in
deed TO interfere with the trusts
when these million of American
pockets shall begin thinking and
sympathizing along trust lines.

"a SALOONS.

It is time for fathers and moth
ers, yea, all people to pause in the
business rush long enough for re-
Election. Thirteen saloons means
an annual out lay of not far from
$40, 900 before there is dime pro-
fit to the investor, think Of it.
How much strong drink must be
sold and drank before this amount
is realized. Say 500, 900 is the
the minimum and we have it to a
reason that near one-half O. the
voters Of Montgomery county are
dramdrinkers and take three drinks
per day. Appalling such, were
they facts, but we know one half
of Montgomery's men are not
dram drinkers and so if we make
it less then we must conclude that
the smaller number are inebriates
and that the saloonists are subject
ing themselves to law punish
ment, and if one half are not drink
ers and less number are not
drunkards then the saloonists must
he resorting to other means that

ness, gambling. We may reason
closer to home. Off Of whom
does this money come with which
to support thirteen saloons. Read
err ask your own laborers, your
own boys and see if you are not
contributor. Again for what does
such business count, that you
would give it in exchange for your
sons and daughters, the men with
whom you work at the mill. 1t is
time to consider.

A WORLD BEEF TRUST.

Close upon the heels of Judge
Crosscup's decision granting a
Temporary injunction against the
Beef Packers association, comes
the announcement that the beei
barons are to form a great corpor-
alton which eventually may con-
troll the meat trade of the world.
Although these barons will then
continue to do what the courts
would now restrain them from do
ing as separate companies, yet the
Republicans are Boosting Of their
achievements under the Sherman
antitrust law.
The Republicans have yet to
win their first suit under this or any
other law, which will lay a trust
fiat upon its back and put it out
of business for all future time
The Republicans get the decisions
very useful in political cam
paigns-and the trusts continue to
get monopoly pro6ts-very useful
to pay dividends on watered stock.
The Standard Oil Co. continues to
plumber the people more than the
Standard Oil Trust ever did. The
United States Steel Corporation,
which includes the pipe concerns,
is sticking US with higher prices
for pipe than the Addystone Pipe
Co. ever got. The Missouri Joint
Traffic decision has not prevented
the railroads from charging higher
rates than before and from con-
tinuing to discriminate in favor Of
the trusts.
Thus it is and thus it will ever
continue to be until the trusts are
tackled in the right way-that is
by knocking the underpinning Of
special privileges from under them.
The most conspicuous Of these
supports is the tariff. While
Dingley duties exist court deci-
sions against trusts will be fruitless,
except for political purposes.
This trust business is Republi-
canism, and before the people de-
eide between the two great parties
we would have them decide the
question am l for the existence Of
trusts or against them1 for the
people or against them7

IFS

The Republican so-called anti
trust law just passed by the Con-
gress, and which gives TO the new
Department of Commerce and La
Dor the power to investigate and
gather information about certain
great corporations or trusts, and
to report such data to the presi-
dent, is a meaningless and harm
less one so far as the trusts are
concerned. Here is the law in a
nutshell, and you can draw your
own conclusions, as it is combi-
nation of "ifs":
If, the Secretary Of this new de-
partment is SO inclined he may fish
for facts in regard to trusts;
Ir, the chief of the bureau OF
corporations in this new depart
ment is not owned by the trusts,
and if he is capable, and if he has
competent and honest assistants
and if they fish in the right place,
they may obtain valuable data;
If when valuable data is OBJ
tanned; the president wishes, he
may have access to it;
If, then, the President has time
to read it and sees fit to do so, he
may make public some are all Of
this data; or.
If he thinks best, he may sim
ply make recommendations TO
Congress for legislation" to regu-
late trusts;
If, then, Congress is not con-
trolled by the allied trusts and
railroads, it may, in the course OF
time, pass new legislation to curb
trusts:
If, then, the Attorney-General is
so inclined, and if he has time, he
may apply the new legislation to
the offending trusts;
If, then, the evidence is suffi-
Gent, the courts may, in years to
come, decide that the new legis-
lation is constitutional, and that
some particular trust has been
guilty Of illegal practices;
If, then, the trust has not al
ready changed its form or ceased
to exist, it may pay nominal fine,
and, in the course of eight or ten
years-as did the Standard Gil
Trust-slightly change its name
and location and continue its bus

teen hundred millions Of securities.
OF this, some FIVE hundred millions
in bond represent what the prop
erty cost. These FIVE hundred
millions ofbonds are carefully held
by Mr.. Carnegie. who has two
hundred millions of them, or more,
and by the other wise ones.
The thousand million dollars Of
other steel securities will soon be
located in he pockets of the peo-
pie. As rapidly as can be man
aged, the great trust men are sell
ing their stock in small parcels to
THE citizens Of the country.
In five years from now the
stock of the steel trust, and Of
many other big trusts will be
owned by forty or fifty millions Of
the country's inhabitants. The
small citizen who has saved few
hundred dollars will have the
money in steel, or sugar, or rail
road, or telephone.
Then, when trust is hurt and
its stocks go down there will come
a roar from the hundreds of thou
sands of small stockholders.
When the trusts shall have dis
tributed their holding among the
voting pockets of the nation, their
squeezing of the public will mean
a little more interest on their
stocks. And this little more inter-
est will make the Individual stock
holder forget that it represents ex-
tortion and an increase in the price
of the necessaries of life for all
their fellow citizens.
Among those who now own
steel stock, even very little, how
many do yon think are more in
terested in the rights of the peo-
pie than in the price oftheir stocka

money influences a certain num-

You all know that if man to-
day says or does anything that
seems to threaten the savings
bank he commits political suicide.
The average man who has nine

thinks more of that ninety dollars

independence, the Old and New
Testaments and eternal salvation
