The Pink Paper makes a weak at.
tempt to reply to the arguments of the
Inter ocean, by lodging the question.
Cold, hard facts always did drive the
Democrats to. cover. The Pink Paper
has presented the best arguments it
could. It sets up a pitiful cry for
the poor, innocent lambs who invest
their cash in the watered stock Of the
trusts, and wants them protected.
That is about the poorest argument
that he's ever been advanced anent
this question. The Democratic party
is externally harpirg about the
ext~ortionate prices charged by the
trusts for trust articles. And it is
one of their pet arguments that the
trust magnates are growing rich.
Now, if these innocent investors in
trust stock are being feeced, how can
the other investors who are IN the
same proportionate basis be robbing
the people? AS a business PROPOSE
ton, the man who has 81, 900 invested
in bank stock will get just one-tenth
as much profit as the one who has
$40, 600. But the Pink Paper contends
that the 81, 900 man is being robbed of
his merited income while the $40, 900
is making enormous profits out of the
same investments. That is an absur-
dity.
AS to the enactment of laws for the
regulation of the trusts, the Pink
Papers reference to those Of Ohio
wnere the trusts had to flee to federal
laws for protection is an admission
that the paper does not know what it
is talking about when it says the
Democrats want such laws. Ohio is
a Republican state, and all the laws
that are worth a continental in regu-
lating the affairs of corporations have
been enacted by the Republican party.
The trouble is that they have enacted
fair and reasonable laws which have
stood the test of reason and been
within the limits Of the constitu-
tion, while those proposed by the
Democratic party have bordered on
the anarchistic, and were unable to
stand the tests by which laws are
measured in a free government. The
Republican party has enacted what
legislation was necessary and said
nothing about it, while the Demo
Gratis have talked loud and done
nothing.

Nine students of an Indiana high
school have been indicted for murder
in causing the death of a student who
was injured while being initiated in
to a high school secret society. For
years the idea that the i~nitiatory cere-
moniesof secret societies were practices
that bordered on the barbulous, kept
many good men out of the orders.
Now it is we'll understood that the
ceremonies are nothing but teachings
in a practical form of the principles
of the order, and initiation into orders
has lost its terrors. But it seems
that young America is fast approach
ing the theo1y that to be manly means
to be able to stand all sorts of hard
ships and ordea]s. That was the idea
If the Indian in his primitive state.
And in some of his wild dances in
this age, he will rend his flesh and
inhict fearful wounds on his body for
the purpose of being brave. Young
America emulates the Indian. The
school boy who died suffered a broken
bone in the rude ceremony, and from
this injury blood poisoning set in
from which he died. It may be
difficult to prove a very serious charge
against the boys engaged in the mat
ter, but it will serve a valuable pur-
pose in checking the brutal practices
that are so much in vogue in the ed
ucational institutions throughout the
country.

The storm which has swept along
the Atlantic coast from Florida to
New England, has wrought havoc in
it's path Everywhere especially in
the seaport cities, the damage has
passed to the million mark Houses
have been blown dowa, and in sever
al cities loss of life has been reported
Had this fearful destruction occurred
in North Dakota the world would
have been advised that the people
we're all either killed in the storm or
frozen into statuary in their houses
The whole country has been expert
encing what the weather prognosti-
Gators term a storm period, and while
the northwest has had it's share, and
considerable damage has been done,
it is not so bad in proportion as that

Grain mas been injured, but that fact
will not hurt the grain grower so
mach as it will the grain consumers
The price has already advanced, and
while the grade will be lowered it
will cover the damages So that
the farmer of this state whose crop is
not a total loss, and there are very
few of that kind, will be far better
off than the people of other sections
wher the destruction of the storm
was a total loss Comparatively
North Dakota has faired better than

One Of the bodies Of men which has
been in session for several days, and
yet has received but little attention
from the press is the irrigation cong

received but little attention from the
public at large, it's work is Of most
vital Importance to the people of
large areas Of the west. Since con-
gress took hold of the matter, and
enacted the recent irrigation laws, the
matter has received more attention
than formerly and congress never en-
acted a law that was more beneficial
to the people of the west. It is vel

Miss May Goelet, a slip Of a girl,
but who was so fortunate as to be
born with the proverbial silver spoon
in her mouth, has traded the wealth
of her family and her beauty, the. Fat
ter of which is remarkable, for an
English Duke, with the largest rent
roll in the English nation except that
of the royal family, and a title. The
match is different from the average
me in which American dollars are
pitted against foreign titles, in that
the duke is not bankrupt. On the
contrary, he is able to match dollars
with Ogden Goelet, his prospective
father-in-law. Of course American
society will slop ove in it's gushing
demonstrations. If the match be-
tween Miss Goelet and her titled
fance be of the kind that form the
basis Of society, the wolld has nothing
of interest in the matter. But if on
the contrary, it be one of those. which
in common life lead to the divorce
court, the public has a concern. II
fact, the marriage relation concerns
the public because of it's connection
with the social status Of the public.
The trouble has always been that
all marriages have been sanctioned
by law and usually by society ant
later, when they prove failures, tn
law tries to remedy it's own erro
and society stands appalled, at wha
it once applauded. The matte
should be remedied in it's inception
: not after the evil is done. Miss Goe
let has led a merry chase for the pur
> pose of securing a titled husband t

! it is a match Of pride rather than on,
of love. If so, society is countenanc

William Randolph Hearst, the sem
s%ational New York journalist, is re-
ceiving some recognition as a Demo-
cratic presidential possibility. The
Democratic party at this time is look
ing for a man who can satisfy the de-
mands of both the Cleveland INT
Bryan factions Of the party, and there
is possibly no man in the nation who
should come nearer this demand than
Hearst. He supported Bryan in both
his campaigns with all the power of
headlines and editorial. Mr.. Cleve-
land we'll knows that had he or any
representative of his faction of
the party been the candidate, Hearst
would have swallowed the whole thing
just as willingly as he did the ticket

On Tuesday evening Mr.. John

had prepared grand send off of
fire works at the depot for the 10
o'clock train, but foxy John gave
them the slip and drove with his
bride to Haydenville to board the
train. A committee of the club
got wise of the move and decora-
ted the train, and went to Hayden
vile to whoop, hurrah all they
could, but that was tame to what
the bride and groom escaped at
Logan. They have gone to Mr..
'Blllls0n'S home at Chllllcothe on
short visit.
Mr.. Billison is pharmacist with
F. S. Case, andln the few years
he has been here has captured the
town and made us all his friends,
and has captured one of Logan's
sweet, amiable and accomplished
young girls. He came to our town
well recommended, and his con-
duct here has builded him beyond
his recommended character. His
bride is the eldest daughter of
Former Mayor A. II. Brooke, and
Mr.. Billison is to be con graduated

choicest young girls. We hearth

Good News For Lamar.

1t will undoubtedly be pleasing ne ws
to our amusement-going people to know
that The Peerless Boston Entertainers
will give return engagement here
Tuesday night, August 4th. at the opera
house. Upon their last visit here they
were practically unknown, but those who
attended the performance with one ac-
cord proclaimed it to be the cleanest
and one of the most pleasing perform
ances given here the past season,
However, it may be added that the
Boston Entertainers have been greatly
strengthened for their Pacific Coast
tour. and it is this new combination
which our people will have an oppor-
tunity Of seeing and hearing. Since
their last visit these clever and talented
entertainers have appeared in the lead
ing opera houses Of the state, and the
unanimous sentiment, as expressed by
the papers, is that they are deserving Of
the crowded houses accorded them at
almost every place. There will be no
increase in prices, the range being 25,
35 and 80 cents. Remember the date
and arrange to attend.

Foolish Attacks on Bryan.

What do the Republican papers
mean which are making savage as.
ssults on William j. BryanY Here
is the indianapolis Journal calling
him a dangerous demagouge," a
RECKLESS msrplot," flake states
man" and several other fierce things.
Other republican journals are also
expending time and using big words
in denouncing him, and in denounc-
ing the democrats for having nomi-
mated him. This is Stiffness. The
democrats had right to nominate
him in 1895 and 1900. 1t was plain
that majority of the members of
the convention in each year favored
him. That two thirds vote in one
year and the unanimous vote in the
other year tells the story on this
point.
Nor is Bryan dangerous dema-
gogue." There may be some doubts
as to whether the word demagouge,
in its present acceptation, describes
him correctly. 1t is certain, how
ever, that he is not dangerous" His
nomination rendered it comparative.
ly easy for the republicans to carry
the country, and as republican sue
cess in 1895 and 1900 was what the
country needed, Bryan ought not to
be denounced by any republican for
contributing to it. Just at this par
ticular time he is busy in telling the
democratic party wnat it ought to
do and what it must avoid doing.
The republicans can afford to let
Brysn's democratic enemies deal
with him. He has been of great
help to the republican party in re.
cent years.
If Bryan exerts any influence over
the selection of the ticket or the
framing of the platform in 1904 it
will be in the interest of the repub.
licans. Bryan himself, of course,
has no chance for the candidacy. He
is trying, however, to get somebody
belonging to his element of the
party nominated, and the republi-
cans will have no cause to mourn if
he is successful. To be sure, the
republicans feel confident of being
able to sweep the country next year,
even if the democracy is united and
enthusiastic. If the democracy is
torn up, as in the two latest canvass
es, the task for the republicans
ought to be easy. The republican
party should accept favors from any
source, and refrain from denouncing
its friends, though they may be in
hostile guise. Democrat.
