WELL, THIS Is RICH.
Russians Reported to Have Fired on
Their Own Torpedo Boat.


Their Own Torpedo Boat.
London, Oct. 3l.-The London Daily
Express correspondent at st. Petersburg
telegraphs:
81 learn on high authority that the
Russian ministry of marine has def
mite information that the Baltic fleet
fired upon it's own torpedo boats, which
were supposed to be japanese, when
they suddenly loomed out of the fog in
front of the battleship division.
"The torpedo boats were performing
scouting duty around the squadron,
when two of them appeared near a
transport which was in front of battle
ship.
'The officer on watch at once signal
ed that he was being attacked.
'The torpedo boat, maneuvering
quickly, crossed the bow of the trans
port and escaped as soon as the firing
began. The commander of the second
torpedo boat, as soon as he was fired
upon, thought he was attacked by Jap
anese and replied with quick firing guns.
Several men on the nearest battle
ship were wounded. The torpedo boat
commander was first to discover the mis-
take, making number of frenzied sig
nails, and succeeded in getting out of the
range of fire.

every object in sight that could possibly
be used as a hitching post was utilized

SIGNS OF SUCCESS.

never before. since the civil war
have its prospects been so clear,
despite the diatribe of Ben Till
man who declared in the con-
vention hall at st. Louis that
the party could be depended
upon to make a fool of itself at
all critical periods. He was
speaking then with ref
erence to past differences in the
party, which, happily, have
been healed to the satisfaction
of all the leaders who are work
ing in that perfect harmony that
above all things else will con-
tribute to their success.
Under the above caption an
editorial in recent issue of the
Tampa Times said:
THE democracy enters the
campaign with drums a.beat
and banners flying in the air.
All the omens are eloquent of
victory. In the last two CAM
paigns the generals were quar-
reling among themselves, and
the boys in the trenches had no
heart for the fray. There was
a general conviction that the
party was going down in defeat.
"Now the skies are changed.
The portents OF storm are Lack
ing. The air is cool and clear.
Hope is blushing on the face of
the dawn, and the golden sun
light once more fills the chalice
of the day. The east and west
are once again smiling at each
other, while the star-eyed south
is singing the song of victory.
mo financial question veXes
the councils of the brav We.
Cleveland and Bryan, whatever
may be their personal antagon-
isms, are both supporting the
ticket of a reunited party. The
golden lion and the silver lamb
are lying down together and ev-
cry democrat dwells in peace
under his own vine and fig tree.
This yearit is the Democratic
party that promises the repub-
lie security and peace. The re-
publicans are wandering after
strange gods. The drift is to-
wards the empire. 1t is not in
the acquisition of the Philip
pines that the spirit OF imperial
ism is shown. 1t is the agrees
sive attack made by the presi-
dent upon our time honored in
situations. Laws are defied by
him, treaties dishoaored, the
constitution violated, and the
leaders of the republican party
dare not open their lips against
the dissertation. Rooseveltism
is not to be laughed at. 1t is a
serious menace. Give it an inch
and it will take an ell.
This a good time to rebuke
the spirit of lawless usurpation
and return to the shaded ways
of safety and peace. If the de-
mocracy were still mated to
populism, no relief could be
expected from it. But that
evil ghost has been exercised.
The democracy is sane, and it is
dangerous to only those who
would prostitute the govern.
ment to their own mercenary
ends.
"The democratic party in this
campaign stand for economy in
the Administration of affairs, hon
esty in the departments, justice
