IT would indeed be clever political
achievement, suggests the Philadelphia
Record, if the democratic party could be
diverted in its warfare upon the trusts
from an attack in the Congress Of the
nation to an attack in the courts. The
vulnerable point in the armor of the
trusts can be reached by cutting down
the tariff rates which enable them to
plunder the people under authority OF
law. In the courts they can only be
driven from one scheme of combination
to another, and never be compelled to
reparation or restitution of unearned ac-
cumulations.

THURSDAY EVENING. JUNE 10, 1904

WORD COMES from Chicago that the
men who find themselves in the position
of being compelled to nominate Mr.
Roosevelt are assembling, and evidences
are multiplying that next weeks ma
tional convention will be more perfume
tory than any in the history OF the
republican party. That the old-timt
party men do not like the dose prepared
for them is as certain as that there vii
be no opposition to the programme thai
has been outlined The idea of intrust-
ing the campaign management to MI
C,rtelyou. an untriel man in the game,
is gall and NORWOOD to the men who
have grown gray in the service OF the
party and the strong intimation that the
national committee, when electing him
chairman, must vote him salary oil
SO. 900 a year makes the situation all
the more distasteful. There is reason
for letting Mr.. Roosevelt have his way
about the chairmanship, as he is the
chief distributor of patronage, and the
men who resent his dictatiOn dare not
do so openly, Besides, the machine
politicians are afraid to turn down Mr.
Roosevelt, but under their breath they
point out the danger that confrOnts the
organization. Mr.. Cortelyou, they say,
in case of Mr.. Roosevelps election, Will
have practical control Of the party ma
chinery for four years and will be able
to do a great deal toward settling upon
a candidate who the President may want
to succeed him, but who may be any
thing but acceptable to the party work
ers. Few seem to be taking any inter-
est in the Vice Presidency nomination.
1t is generally admitted that Senator
Fairbanks, of Indiana, can have second
place on the ticket if he wants it, and
that the booms for Messrs. Hit and
Cannon are not yet serious.

THE BURNING of the excursion steam
er General Slocum in East river yester-
dav morning has been read by millions
of persons during the past twenty -four
hours. News Of the terrible disaster
has by this time reached all civilized
countries of the globe. In the United
States it is naturally the most absorbing
topic, and as additional details are re-
ceivcd and the magnitude of the horror
is realized, expression of sympathy are
heard far and near. 1t is admitted that
at least 600 persons persisted, mostly
women and helpless little ones who had
left their homes yesterday morning full
of bright anticipations of the joys incl
dent to a Sunday school excursion. The
figures, however, may reach the one
thousand mark, and Grape this morning
is on at least thatmany door knobs. The
pastor of the church under the auspices
of which the excursion was given had 10

children over whose forms the waters

were lost, and in others the breadwinners
returned to their homes last night with
no wives to greet them or little ones to
lisp their sires' return. "Rachel weeping
for her children and would not be COM
forted" is one Of the touching scenes of
history, but the horrors incident to yes
terday's drowning and holocaust doubt
less exceed the distress incident to the

road, four narrow bridges to be crossed,
three of which are at the foot of steep

Mr.. CANNON, it is said, does not
want to be a candidate for Vice Presi-
dent. As Speaker, he has power second
only to that of the President, while as
Vice President, should he be elected, he
would be a mere Interpreter of the Sen
ate's rules. 1t is being whispered that
President Roosevelt would like to see
Mr.. Cannon gel the second place on the
ticket, with the idea that Mr.. Cannon
successor might be man who could be
more easily influenced from the White
House than Mr.. Cannon has been.
President Roosevelt is striving to absorb
the whole power of the organization in
himself and this move would be in line
with the dictatorial policy which he has
assumed in the arrangements for the
national convention and the organization
of the national committee.
