In Beaver county mistake was made
in printing the ballots-the word ''Su-

before the words Judges" and the

about 1000

The President and the Trusts.

The mania for stock speculation with
a view to growing suddenly and i'm
mersely rich without comforting any
corresponding benefits on the public,
which has had possession of the people
of this country for the past year or two,
has completely vindicated the wisdom
and foresight of President Roosevelt.
He said three years ago that the great
est danger to the people from trusts
would be the disposition on the part Of
unscrupulous men to organize corpora
tions and oyercapitalize them with
view to making vast sums of money by
the sale of practically worthless stocks.
To obviate this danger the President
recommended the enactment of laws
that would compl such publicity of the
affairs Of each and every corporation
coming within the scope of interstate
commerce regulations that the public
could not be deceived as to the actual
financial condition of such organiza-
tions. His idea was that they sh ould
come within the supervision of the Gov
eminent much the same as National
Banks-that they should be examined
frequently and sworn statements of
their condition published.
For this the great financial sharks of
New York and elsewhere denounced
the President as a narrow and preju-
diced man. without sufficient grasp Of
affairs to appreciate the needs of great
manufacturing and commercial nation.
These men arrogantly set themselves up
as the real rocks upon which the pros
perity of the country rested. and an
nounced their opposition to the nomina-
ton Of Theodore Roosevelt for the Pres
idency But events have clearly proven
that the President was absolutely right
and that the Wall Street manipulators
were emphatically wrong. Instead,
therefore, of this opposition being a
source of weakness to the President, it
will prove one of his principal elements
Of strength. 1t will give the people re-
newed confidence in the wisdom and
honesty Of Chief Executive who has
risen grandly to every occasion, and
whose inspiring motive, always and ev-
erywhere, is the honor and glory of his
country and the happiness and prosper
ity Of it's people e-Punxsutawney Spirit.

good will on the part of the English govern
ment, and of rendering the same obedience to
the rules and regulations Of the army as the
English princes of the blood, he seemed to think
that his royal rank rendered him exempt from
all discipline, and that it entitled him to i'm
munity no matter how gross his insubOrdina-
tion and disrespect toward his superior officers
The climax reached a field day at
AldershOt when the commanding general, Sir
Evelyn Wood, one of the most gallant and
popular veterans of the British army, having
gone up in a captive balloon in order to OBJ
tain a bird'S-eye view of the mimic battle
field the duke drew his sword and cut the
rope, the balloon thus released from its moor
ings speedily disappearing behind the hills,
driven by strong wind. Fortunately, none
OF it's occupants came to grief, and safe
landing was effected at about thirty miles
from the camp. But Sir Evelyn was so in
dignant that he complained to the Queen and
to the Duke OF Cambridge, then commander
in chief with the result that the connection
of the Duke OF Orleans with the British army
was then and there severed. What served to
additionally embtter Sir Evelyn against the
duke was his recollection of the excellent be-
