plutocratic influences or tendencies. The Republican party is growing more and more plutocratic, and it can fur nish home for all who believe in the rule of wealth. The Democratic party can not be a plutocratic party; 1t can not belle its history; it can not disap- point the hopes of it's members. The fight must go on and must go on until victory is secured. Can we win? Who can doubt it? To those who think that a temporary victory of the cor servative element ends progress in the Democrat party, let this reply be made:
 70 ye of little faith. Go forth into the fields and see haw the myriad grains, bursting forth from their pris- on in the earth, push upward toward the light. Watch them as unGsr the influence of sunshine and showet they grow to maturity and furnish food for the race. Go into the orchard alG see the seed or the grafted twig gro@ irto great tree whose leaves furnish shade and whose fruit give nourlsh- ment to man. Measure if you can the mighty forces behind the grain anj the tree. and know ye that the forces behind the truth are as irresistible and as constantly at work. God would ind sal a made such ample provision for the needs of mans body and less ade- quate provision for the triumph Of those moral forces which mean more to the race than food or clothia5 or shelter. He is political atheis. who doubts the triumph of the right. He lacks faith in the purposes aud the plans of God who for a moment faiters in the great struggle between truth and error-between man and nam mon"
 The full statement of the position of Mir Bryan in the Commoner permits of the following deductions:
 I. He will support the candidacy Of Alton B. Parker, and give the tickc, his full strength on the stump.
 II. While doing this. he ressives the right to advocate certain eceno-. ic questions, not dealt with in the Democratic platform, which he be- lives to be of paramount importance.
 III. Bryan prefers Parker to Roose- welt on the ground that the one stands for peace and the law. and the oth:. for war
 ". That Bryan intends 10 remain in the Democratic party and continue to be a power to reckoned with, wheth- CT Parker is successful or not.
 In the event that Parker is elected, which is quite within the range of probabilities, the effort of the "Radi- calls and Progressives" would be hard uphill fight. Bryan's ideas are not new to the American people For eight years he has advocated them be- fore the highest court of appeal in the land and met with reverse. Al at tempt to reorganize the Democratic party on the heels of a decisive victo- ry would meet with a small response. No party is greater than it's country, and no leader is greater than a ma iority of his party. It is pleasing 10 note, however. that Mir Bryan intends to conduct his campaign within the lines of his own party, for the present at least.

MARK SMITH FOR CONGRESS.

It has come to be a recognized fac: that Mark Smith will again be the standard bearer in the approaching campaign for delegate to Congress. His only possible opponent will be Col. J. F. Wilson. of Prescott, but the southern counties do not take much stock in the Wilson boom.
 It is not likely that the tier of north ern counties will present Wilson S name to the convention.
 Col. Wilson was not a stroag candi- date in the campaign two years ago The northern counties, whose repre- sentatives in the convention forced bis nomination, failed to deliver the goods. Yavapai county, the home of Delegate Wilson, gave Morrison, the Republi- can candidate, an overwhelming major. ity, and with the bare exception of Mohave county, the northern counties did likewise. If Cochise and Graham county had weakened one iota in 1he usual Democratic majorities, Col Will son would have remained at home.
 The approaching session of congress will be one fraught with much danger to Arizona. This is the time that Ari- zona should be represented by its strongest son, one who has the ear and confidence of the Democratic leaders in the senate, and who by his strong per sonality and wide acquaintance, can command the most determined effort on the part of the Democratic leaders in the Senate to save Arizona from the disgrace of joint statehood.
 Mark Smith adds strength to the Democratic ticket in every county. He is the ideal leader of the party in Ari- zona, and by his keen foresight and po- litical sagacity, is the means of inspir- ing an enthusiastic and determined campaign.
 It does not necessarily follow that Mark Smith is the only Democrat in Arizona who can represent Arizona in an able manner. but it would seem, taking all things into consideration,

BRYAN AND THE CONSERVATIVES.

The Review is in receipt of the Com moner, W. J. Bryan, editor and propri- etor, bearing date of July 22.
 Under the caption of Democracy Must Move Forward" NIT. Bryan makes it quite plain that he proposes to be the leader of the radical and progressive element of the Democratic party" and proceeds to set forth sev- eral issues for which he proposes to advocate and maintain until the end.
 The introduction to the above arti- cle admits that the money question is for the present in abeyance. which se accounts for by the increased volume of money that has been added to the circulation. After a reading of the article, which covers two pages of the Commoner, it is evident that Bryan intends in the future to make the gov ernment ownership of railroads his leading issue. He does not favor fed eral ownership, but proposes that each state own and operate the railroad lines within their own borders.
 The article also advocates the own ership of all municipal franchises by the cities, and favors the operation of all telegraph and telephone lines by the post office department.
 In addition Bryan intends to wage unceasing warfare upon the trusts, ia vors the income tax. election of sena- tors by the people, advocates the cleo tion of federal judges to serve for 2 limited period, suggests a change in present method of selecting postmas. ters, and in conclusion makes the fol lowing announcements:
 The Democratic party, if it is to be a power for good in this country, must be the defender of human rights. It must devote itself to the protection of human rights. It must declare, es- tablish and defend the true relation between man and property, a relation recognized by both Jefferson ard Lin coln-a relation which puts man first and his possessions afterwaId a rela ton which makes man the master of that which he has created, relation which puts the spiritual and moral life of the nation above it's material wealth and resources. This is the great strug gle of today, and it is a struggle il which the Democratic party must take an important part.
 "The contest above outlined must be made whether the party wins in No vember or not A single election is but an incident in the life of party For more than a century the Demo cratic party has stood forth as the representative of certain great ideas Jefferson founded it, Jackson defend ed it, and even Cleveland could not destroy it.

NEWMAN FORGOT 1T.
So There Will Be No Jury for
April Term of Court.

The April session of the Shawnee
county district court. which Will begin
April 4, will either amount to but little
in a legal way or will amount to great
of the negligence of County Clerk
Albert Newman, who forgot to draw
the jury 80 days in advance. as re-
quired by law
There will be no regular jury in at
tendance upon the district court from
April to September, and there will be
no regular jury to try the gambling
cases. County Clerk Newman should
have begun the proceedings of calling
a jury on February %. The Shawnee
county Republican convention met on
that day. Newman, as assistant man
ager for Congressman Curtis and treas
urer of the First district congressional
committee. was too busy with the con-
vention to think of juries. 1t would
have been possible for him to have be-
gun proceedings not later than March
l, but there was too much politics go
ing on between the time of the county
convention and the state convention
for him to give much attention to the
duties of the office. The whole jury
matter was entirely forgotten by New
man until Thursday. when he returned
from the state convention at Wichita
and Judge Hazen asked him for a list
of the Jurors drawn for the April term
of the district court
The law providing for the drawing of
a jury for the district court is as fol-
lows:
LAT least 80 days before any term
of the court at which a petit jury shall
be required by law, or grand jury
ordered by the court, the clerk of the
county where such court is to be held
shall draw from the jury box the names
of Is persons to serve as grand jurors
and the names of IL persons to serve
as petit jurors. " At least three
days before the drawing of such jurors
the clerk shall give notice to~the sheriff
and two justices of the peace of said
county, of the day and hour when such
drawing will take place. AT the
time so appointed, it shall be the duty
of the sheriff of the county. in person
or by his undersheriff, and the justices
aforesaid. to attend at the county
clerks office to witness such drawing.
and if any two of said officers shall
attend at the time and place appoint
ed, the clerk shall proceed, in their
presence, to draw the jurors. If
two of the officers so notified do not
appear, the clerk shall adjourn the
drawing of such jurors until the next
day, and shall by written notice, re-
quiIe any justice of the peace of the
county to attend such drawing on the
adjourned day"

calling of a jury. A jury can be sum-
moned but If an attorney challenges
the array of jurors as being an illegal
body Judge Hazen will have to dismiss
them. There is one particularly inn
portant case to come up for trial at the
April term and that is the gambling
case. Judge Hazen will call a special
venire of jurors for that case. Such a
proceeding will be very expensive as
the cost of a special venire will be so
per cent greater than the cost of a
regular panel. The failure to legally
summon the jury will make a mess of
the docket for the April term and all of
the jury cases may have to go over IN
til the term beginning next September

man is not the only county official who
has been negligent on account of his
devoting his time to politics. There
are others. Thursday morning a score
of witnesses in a case appeared at the
probate judges office to testify in a
trial set for that time. Judge Hayden
was not there. He had not returned
from the Wichita convention. The wit
nesses returned at two o'clock in the
afternoon. Still no judge. All this

CASE OF PEONAGE.
First That Has Come to Ligh1
in Mississippi.

jackson, Miss, March 11.-Shep. Crit
fin, a negro. is in Jail at Meridian, hav-
ing been taken from certain persons in
kemper county, who, it is charged, held
him in forced Servitude. This is the
first substantial charge of peonage that
has come to the attention of United
States officials in Mississippi, and it. is
learned that the nieghborhood wheI c
the arrests were made is in a state of
excitement While the officials decline
to discuss the matter it is learned from
other sources that the parties charged
with the offense not only have made
threats that they would kill the negro
Rand the deputies who arrested him, but
would also kill the witnesses against
them and burn their property.
It is further learned from the clerk
of the U. S. court that Shep. Griffin
was arrested on bench warrant on
the application of the district attorney,
commanding the marshal to take Grif-
fin and hold him as a witness before
the federal grand jury next Monday.
Reputable citizens of Kemper county
brought this case to the attention of
the marshal, asserting to him that the
negro had been stripped and whipped
for leaving the premises of those who
held him. So severe was the beating
that his clothing stuck for several days
to the gaskes made by the lash. On
his second escape it is alleged that he
fed into Nessobal county, where he
was recaptured, pistols were drawn on
him, a rope was placed around his neck
and fastened to the saddle of one of
his captors, and he was dragged and
driven into kemper county
The persons who held Griffin in servi-
tude claimed that he owed them one
dollar. This he offered 60 pay, and
reputable white citizens also offered to
pay the sum, but all offers were declined
as it was stated that it was his work
and not his money that was wanted.

BROUGHT IN WELL NO. 3.
Syndicate Oil and Gas Company
Make Strike at Chanute.

Chanute Kan, March 1.-THE Syndi-
cate Oil & Gas company brought in its
No. Thursday and the Kansas Tor
pedO company shot it The we'll had rs
feet of good pay sand and showed up
very we'll after the shot indicating a
better well than either Nos. or 2. The
we'll was drilled in, cleaned out and shot
in less than five days after it was com
menced and the rig is being moved to
another site. The well was drilled to a
depth of $50 feet and no gas sand was
encountered. AS a rule the wells in the
NIundy trend are not combination oil
and gas wells as gas in any amount is
rarely found above the oil. 1t is univer-
sally believed, however, by the opera
tors. that a strong flow of gas in this
trend can be secured by going a hun
dred feet deeper, consequently the Syn
dictate company, for one, intends to go
deeper soon in search of a good volume
OF gas to furnish the power for its ma
chinery.

DUNN IS HANGED.
Sheriff Beat Disease in Fight
for His Life.

St. Joseph, Mo, March 11.-Marh
Dunn was hanged here at 10:40 today.
The murder for which Mark Dunn
was hanged here was that of Alfred
Fenton, a wealthy young farmer at
Rushville, in July, 1902. Early in the
morning of March Z. Dunn escaped
from Jail here by overpowering his
guard and threatening to kill him with
two revolvers that had been smuggled
into his cell unless the jailer turned
him out in the exit wheel. He lived in
the woods for two days and nights and
finally went to the home of his brother
in-law in Andrew county. where he was
captured. Dunn was 2S years of age
and married.

TO GUST. A DRILLER.
Rather Unusual Suit Is Begun in
lola Gas Belt

lola, Kan. March 11.-An unusual suit
was filed in district court here by D. E.
Bush and W. B. Combs against James
George. The plaintiffs owned a well
drilling outfit and didn't know how to
run it, SO they entered into verbal
agreement with George, who is a prac-
teal driller to take a fourth interest
in the rig and operate it, instructing his
helpers in the work He claimed to be
a fast driller, capable of sinking a hole
in seven days and never requiring over
fourteen.
Now the plaintiffs say that from the
date he made the agreement he has
given much time to booze, neglecting
his work. permitting the machinery to
be injured, quarreling with the men
working with him and the men for
whom the wells were being drilled, and
delaying the work beyond reason. One
contract for seven wells for S. j. Stew
art is likely to be cancelled unless he is
removed from the job.

SPRING TRADE DULL.
Shows Loss of 10 to Is Per
Cent from Last Year.

New York, March 11.-Special tele-
grams from correspondents of the In
ternational Mercantile agency through
out the United States show that spring
trade, now about completed. has fallen
10 or 10 per cent. behind the total vol
ume distributed in the first two months
of 1903.
The difference is not so great at New
York, but business in New England is
undeniably quiet. Chicago merchants
find the movement of dry goods, cloth
ing, shoes and groceries about equal to
that of a year ago, but at st. Louis
and Louisville there are gains this year
over last. Minneapolis and st. Paul
explain that the northwest is very con-
servative and that business is about 10
per cent. less than in March. 1903, while
at Philadelphia the falling off in metals
and some other lines is as much as 20
per cent Pittsburg has felt like de-
cline, but says recent large purchases
point to the long waited turn in the
tide.
Special inquiry as to winter wheat
shows that east of the Mississippi. ex-
cept in Ohio, recent weather conditions
have been favorable.
Recent weather conditions have IA
vored steel trade and a revival of the
building industry which, as shown by
the International Mercantile Agency's
canvass OF the situation at ten of the
larger cities of the country, points to
decreased volume this year as to value,
owing largely to higher costs of labor
and raw materials.
Larger New York city contractors ex-
pect the total will about equal that OF
last year. AT Philadelphia an increase
is expected of from 10 per cent to 20
per cent and, judging from the charac-
ter of new projects at Chicago. the year
will rival 1903. Out of the burned dis
trict, Baltimore's building win not vary
materially St. Paul and Minneapolis
each report a probable decrease of about
10 per cent.
Philadelphia and Chicago each report
a tendency toward a decrease in indus
trial wages Leading metal and agri-
cultural prices incline higher.
