only admired and among them all John
u: rockefeller reigns supreme
J. P. Morgan, George Gould and 10TH
er -millionaires have felt his
heavy hand now that he is looking for
larger prey, and a battle is imminent
between other matadors.
The majority of the American people
look upon the battle Of giants only as
curious spectators. If you tell them
that their nation is in imminent danger
they look at you with q plying smile
They will not admit that Rockefeller
with his billions may overpower their
government. They will answer you in
the most phlegmatic manner that the
stars of the Union have not lost their
brllliancy, and that if Rockefeller
should go too far congress and the peo-
pie are amply able to show him his
place.
It cannot be denied that it is inter-
estlng to watch this game of the finan-
clal giants, but the number of disn-
terested onlookers is rapidly diminish
ing. Workingmen and small capital
lists, the first victims Of the filibusters,
are beginning to show signs of impa-
thence, and the day will come when all
these groups Of sufferers will have their
representatives in congress and gov
eminent, and I sincerely hope for my
brother republicans in America that
their resistance may come in time to
save that great republic from the most
contemplate and dangerous forms of
despotlsn1-that of great financiers be-
yOnd the reach of the law.

DOG KILLS MASTER,
WITH A BLOW

: "A boxing match with his dog,
great Dane, which he had taught to
stand up and fight in human fashion,
has resulted in the death of Henry
Thorne. Of Germantown.
The fatal bout took place in the home
of Thorne on Tuesday last,and the I'M
foreseen end came as a result Of the
fierce anger of the dog, which had
been stirred up by a blow struck by
his master.
The dog, whose name is Dixie" was
taught by Thorne to stand on his hind
legs and use his paws in defending
himself from blows aimed by Thorne,
who wore boxing gloves in the bouts.
On Tuesday Thorne put on the gloves
and the pugilistic encounter started
off as usual, Dixie had learned to
use his paws with much ability, and,
as there was much strength behind the
blows aimed by the ANIMAL Thorne
was compelled to do great deal Of
lodging. In Tuesdays bout Thorne
landed on the dogs head and neck
more frequently than usual. and one
of his blows was a stinger.
Maddefed by the pain and aggra .
waited possibly by the fact that he had
failed to reach his adversary with his
paws, the beast plunged forward and
hurled his heavy body against his hu-
man adversary, who was sent fly
ing to the ground. The dog landed
with such force as to crush several of
Thorne's ribs, broken bits Of which
punctured the lungs, which injuries re-
suited in death.

MAN RIDES IN
HORSES HEARSE

Few men would take refuge in a
hearse in order to escape arrest for an
ordinary infraction Of the law. That
Is what Providence man who visited
the Pawtucket Valley is said to have
done Sunday evening, however, and the
means of escape chosen proved effect
i've.
1t was like this: A jackass died
at Rtverpoint. a fourfooted one, and
its owner telephoned to Providence
for the dead horse hearse to go out
and carry the carcass away. A hearse,
with two men in charge, was sent out
In the afternoon. One of the two men
had been given to understand that a
warrant for his arrest for alleged cruel
ty to animals was in the hands Of an
Apponaug officer, who was waiting an
opportunity to serve it. Chief Of Po-
lice Andrews, of Warrick, says there
was no Warrent for the man, but the
latter was advised to lay low, as it
were, on the drive through Apponaug
and escape arrest. Lying low" on
vehicle constructed as dead horse
hearse, is not an easy matter and so
when the two men with the body Of the
dead jackass arrived on the outskirts
of Apponaug the man who feared arrest
crawled inside the hearse beside the
body of the dead animal and thus rode
in safety through the village to the
WaCrick Plains beyond.
The dead animal which shared it's
place III the hearse ON this occasion
was the only fourfooted jackass num-
bered among the Valleys dumb in
habitants, and it is not known whether
his place will be filled.

Ing, protest: against nothing and com.
mend nothing: They are. even more
modified than previous declarations. :
The 100000 union workingmen OF
the United States are tired Of being
trimmed" in this manner. They want
some thing more tangible from great
political party. They want to know
what the Democratic party will do for
them in the event that it would be
given power. They want to know what
attitude the party will take on legisla-
ton in which trade unions are inter-
ested.
The workingmen Of this country have
learned by experience that mere "hot
air" declarations can not me relied
upon. If the Democratic party is a
friend to labor let it face the issue
squarely and honestly. Let it choose
between God and Mammon. There is
no middle ground at this late day. The
party that can promise relief and a
return to the principles of true Demo-
cracy is the party that will receive the
support of labor in the next election.
'Down with reaction, and on with
progress!" will be the battle cry.

FLOOD OF PROSPERITY,

From the New York Tribune:
Representative Wade, of Iowa, in
making speech about tariff the other
day applied an anecdote Of an Irish
man at Niagara Falls.
"The gentleman from Illinois, Mr..
Boutell," said Mr.. Wade, insists that
the country is prosperous, and he read
a lot of newspaper articles to prove it.
Others insist on the same state of at
fairs. But whenever here one of these
members talking I am reminded of
the gentleman from Ireland who went
to see Niagara Falls.
HE hired a guide to take him all
around. The guide showed the gen.
leman from Ireland everything, and
when the guide got through the Irish
man inquired: IFS that an?'
j. EYES, replied the guide. I have
shown you all the points Of interest
"I don't see why people should come
from all over the world to see this the
gentleman from Ireland insisted.
"'Well, don't you see that magnifi-
cent cataract of water rushing over
the precipice?
"'shure,' said the tourist, but why
shouldn't it; what is there to hold it
back""

AS SLOW OUR SHIP.

AS slow our ship her foamy track
Against the wind was cleaving,
Her trembling pennant still looked
To that dear isle twas leaving.
So 10th we part from all we love,
From all the links that bind US;
So turn our hearts as on we rove,
To those we've left behind us.
When round the bowl of vanished years
We talk with joyous seeming,
With smiles that might as we'll be tears
So faint, SO sad their beaming;
While memory brings us back again,
Each early tie that twined us,
Oh, sweets the cup that circles then
To those we've left behind us.
And when in other chimes we meet,
Some isle or vale enchanting,
Where all looks flowery, wild and
sweet,
And naught but love is wanting,
We think how great has been our bliss
If heaven had but assigned us
To live and die in scenes like this,
With some we've left behind us.
AS travellers oft look back at eve,
When eastward darkly going,
To gaze upon the light they leave,
Still faint behind them glowing.
So when the close of pleasures day
To gloom hath near consigned us,
We turn to. catch the fading ray,
OF JOY that's left behind us.

This is not the. first time that D. B.
Fill has succeeded in carrying New
York his way. In 1892 the delegation
was instructed for him tor president,
but the Democratic National convene
ton nominated Grover Cleveland. The
fight in the convention Monday was
personal matter with Mr.. Hill. Prim-
arily he cares nothing for Judge Par
ker. All that he expected was to be
restored to state leadership. During
the last municipal election in New
York city Mr.. Hill was entirely ignor-
ed by the Tamn1any forces. He felt
the singing blow dealt to him by the
Tammany leadership, and his desire
for revenge and leadership prompted
him to take the stand that he did on
Monday last. OF course it must be
admitted that Mr.. Hill is a factor to
be reckoned with in New York politics.
But Democracy as a whole will refuse
to swallow his sugar-ooated Parker
pill in the coming campaign. No man
can receive the united support Of the
Democratic party who does not stand
squarely on a proposition to restore
the country to first principles. This
can be expected from no man who re-
ceives the unqualified endorsement Of
Wall street. The issue is clear cut.
The trust makers Of Wall street have
shown themselves to be the enemies of
simple popular government. For this
reason a. man distant from such in
vironments should be the next presi-
dent Of the United States. The Demo-
cratic party can well afford to again
so down in defeat, rather than meet
with success at the polls on a COM
promising platform. Retrogression at
this time means ultimate discredit.

OUR TENTH ANNIVERSARY.

In two weeks the Labor World will
start upon it's tenth year. But few
labor papers have enjoyed a life Of
this length. From the beginning this
paper has been a success. There have
been periods when it was hard to sur
vive the deDression but then we all
ways managed to pull through. Other
business suffered during these times
just as We did. So we have no COM
plant to offer. Labor supported our
paper most creditably. We have been
true to the cause at all times. and we
have continued to enjoy the conf
dence of our readers from the first
edition. When an article appears in
the Labor World it has been regarded
as iona fide and true. We have not
stopped to personal abuse to compel
people to read our matter. There has
been no desire to cater to the morbid
reader. Our whole life in labor Journal
fsl; has been devoted to writing and
chanpioning the cause of the working
man. We have protested when pro-
tests were necessary, and we have
condemned without fear, when we felt
that condemnation was deserved.
TO fittingly begin the tenth year of
the Labor World we have determined
to issue a mammoth publication. It
will be an edition devoted entirely to
the Industrial development of Duluth,
Her commercial advantages, her pro-
ductive facilities and her effort and
enterprise will all be carefully dis
cused. Handsome illustrations of our
greatest and most prosperous institu-
tions will be made. The relation al
tabor and capital in the development
Of our city will be treated with the
utmost care.
Every business man will want the
Labor World to send his friends far
away. He will be able to do this with
considerable pride. For it will repre-.
sent the spirit and intelligence of the
union labor movement Of Duluth. II
will prove to the skeptical that Du-
luth workingmen are fair, conserva.
tive and reasonable.

MANCHURIAN TRADE.

For the last decade the foreign trade
of Manchuria has advanced greatly.
The last year Of the decade exceeds
the first year by 500 per cent. For
1902 the returns of customs collected
We're $4,000. The growth of the trade
came from the free export of beans,
bean cake and bean OIL And during
the last decade golden grain belt beer
has taken an enviabre place as the ideal
beverage for family use. The process
Of brewing is guarantee of it's purity
and the constituent elements explain
it's tonic healthful effect. It's merits
are brought out through regular use.

MILITARY ANARCHY,

Colorado Is still IN the thros of mill
tary anarchists who defy the law, the
courts and the constitution. It is
abut time for the true, liberty loving
people in the state to call halt ON
their governor. He is carrying the
sire to serve his masters and crush
the miners he has forgotten every
principle of Justice. He has trampled
upon the rights Of the people. He has
asurped power never granted to him.
Listen to the plea of his counsel:
"The governor Of the state has the
authority to arrest and imprison at
will for the good of the state, and he
may incarcerate any person for an In
definite period. He has greater pow
err than the courts. He has found it
necessary to keep Meyer in custody
for some time yet, as it will be impos-
sible to bring about peace in San Mig
uel county unless he is kept in JAIL"
Does this not SAVIOR Of Siberia! Had
the Car Of all the Russians ever
claimed such authority? Are we not
Justified in asking II Colorado is in
America or Russia? Was not Presi-
dent Meyer justified in asking the
question? For this Interrogation up
on picture of the American flag he
was cast into the awful Bull Pen.
There he has remained for several
weeks, where he has been denied the
right Of trial, and the privilege of
the writ Of haveas corpus.
Upon mere whim Gen. Bell declares
that it will be unsafe for him to re.
move President Meyer from the Bull
Pen to the court room. He pretends
to believe that an attack will be made
upon the militia; that the miners are
on the verge Of revolution. Up to this
time We have failed to note one case
where there has been any violation
Of law among the miners. We SUBJ
| NIT to our readers that II there was
any violation of law the daily press
would have gloried In spreading it far
and wide. The fact is that there has
been no violation Of law of any con-
sequence. The miners are being at
| tackled for committing the awful
crime of Striking" for the enforce
| ment of the constitution of the state
Of Colorado. The Miners union must
be defeated in Colorado. This is the
belief Of the mine owners, and their
dupes, Bell and Peabody, are but at
| tempting to carry out the mandates OF
| their masters. When will they be
| stopped in their maddened course
! Have they not reached the limit? Can
they not respect the mandate of the
courts just like any other citizens. we
write this because we fear a. repetition
Of the outrages in other states in case
Peabody wins in Colorado. 1t may be
our turn next. Hence. our protest.

CLAIMS DAMAGES
FOR CRUSHED HAND

Karl Tuv has brought suit againt the
Leisure Lumber company to recover ST.
$50 for injuries alleged to have been
received while in the employ of the
company. Tuv claims that he was
working for the concern on Sept 16,
1903 at roller table, to reach which
he had to pass over a loose plank
which was used to cover a number of
cog wheels. On this day not knowing
of the dangerous condition of the plank
he stepped upon it, in order to get to
his work, and in so doing his left hand
was caught and crushed. Tuv brings
this action to recover for the lose of
time at work because of the injury,
the doctor bills and damages for the
injured hand
