The Denver News saws: "The cause
OF the antitrust act which provides for
the imprisonment of persons guilty of
operating illegal trusts would be, of a
veritv, the strong right arm of the gov
eminent if there were an administra-
ton at Washington with serious in.
tention of enforcing the law. To repeal
it would leave the law merely an instru.
ment by which an illegal trust might be
made to dissolve, but the organizers
of it would 60 scot free of punishment
and at liberty TO carry on their nefarious
business in some other FORM" Because
these things are so well understood, the
News thinks that the Foraker bill will
not be pushed at this session of con-
gress. The News is, undoubtedly, cor.
rect; and yet the democratic newspapers
will do we'll to take every opportunity
to warn the people that the Foraker bill
represents the program that will be car
ried out in the event the republican
party is restored to power.

WALL STREET IN LINE"

Walter Wellman the Washington
correspondent for the Chicago Record
Herald, announces with exultant tone
that Wall street is now in line for
Roosevelt. He points to the fact that
Cassett, president OF the Pennsylvania
railroad, has been entertained at the
White house and that President Still.
man of the Rockefeller bank has had
several interviews with President Roose-
welt. "Wall street is swinging into
line," we are told, and will not only
offer no opposition to his nomination,
but is discerning certain admirable
qualities in him. This would be an
important item of news if new, but it is
not new. Mr.. Roosevelt's nomination
was settled about year ago when the
president consented to having the house
antitrust measure strangled in the sen.
ate. The New York Sun called attention
to the matter at the time and congratu-
lated the president upon his mastery
retreat" The speech delivered by the
president last spring at Milwaukee was
a formal announcement of his capitula-
ton, as democratic papers then pointed
out. Since that time there has been an
era of peace between the executive and
the trusts. The presidents surrender
was the cause of peace and the nominal
ton is to be the result. Having as the
republican nominee one whom the
trusts can trust, it only remains for the
trusts to capture the democratic conven.
ton in order to secure protection from
any possible molestation. If the demo.
Gratis nominate some one equally &C.
ceptable and trusts will contribute
equally to the two parties; if they
nominate Mr.. Cleveland or some one
like him the trusts might give the
democrats more than half because it
would enable the trusts to again throw
the odium of non.action upon the demo-
Gratis. But the trusts will not control
the democratic convention. The loyal
democrats are warned in time, and
knowing the purpose OF the reorgani-
zers will be able to thwart it. Pluto.
cracy may be entitled to one party, but
it is not entitled to two.

An American steel rail mill has Just
contracted to deliver to the Canadian
Pacific railroad 10000 tons of steel rails
at SOL per ton. The price to domestic
railroads at the mill is $2S per ton. A
reasonable allowance for the cost of
delivery at Montreal makes the price to
the Canadian Pacific $1S at the mill, or
$40 per ton less than the United States
consumer has to pay on account of the
tariff which protects the "steel infant"
The home consumer is held up for 55
per cent. more than the foreign con.
sumner by the aid of the tariff. This is
only fair sample of the manner in
which the tariff works to bulwark the
trusts and rob the people.

There is an object lesson to be found
in the wreck Of ship loaded with lum-
Der which went ashore at the mouth of
Grays Harbor. The ship lay so that it
would have been comparatively easy
task to have unloaded it and brought
the lumber back to port. 1t was de.
cided, however, by the agent of the in
surance company that it would cost five
dollars a thousand to unload and tow
back to port, and it was question
whether the lumber would sell for more
than that. This shows two things: first,
labor is very high; and second, lumber
is very low.-West Coast and Puget
Sound Lumberman.

new YORK

New York, March IA misunderstand-
ing. which may not become serious. but
which may require an explanation, was
discussed yesterday by the Democratic
friends of ID. b. Hill. Charles r. Murphy.
Representative W. Bourke Cochran. Nor
man e. Mack, Democratic rational COM
mltteeman for New York, and Col James
NJ Guffey. Democratic national commit
teeman for Pennsylvania
The matter concerns the New tork
Democratic state convention, 20 be held
al Albany, April 1s. and the Pennsylvania
Democratic state convention, TO be heiu
at Harrisburg, April 10.
Those directly Interested in the cofnph-
cation said that Mr.. Murphy and Repre-
sentative Cochran understood Mr.. Hill TO
say TO them I'm Albany last saturday that
he had come To n thorough understanding
With Col. Guffey Of Pennsylvania con-
cerning the actions of the two conven-
tions that the New York state conyen-
CATION for CHIEF Judge Parker, and that
the Pennsylvania state convention TO be
held on the following day, was TO do ike
wise.
Mr. Murphy, learning that Col. Guffey
was at the Holland house on "Wednesday,
called up Col. Guffey on the telephone and
discussed with him his understanding
with Mr.. Hill. Col. Guffey informed Mr.
Murphy that he had no such under
standing with Mr.. Hill. and that MT
Hill had doubtless misunderstood. Col
Guffey's communicat tlons 10 him, that he
had not and could not have said anything
personally or in letters to Mr.. IIill which
would warrant the Interpretation that
the Pennsylvania Democratic state con-
vention would follow suit, I'm case the
New York Democratic convention In
structed for Chief Judge Parker.
Col Guffey went on explain TO Mr.. Muir j
ply that from the very beginning he had
been opposed to instructing the Pennsyi,
vania delegation for any presidential
candidate OF the Democratic party. and
that he believed il most unwise TO do 40.
Mr.. Guffey further said to friends later
that he did not believe II would be a
wise move for the Democratic party at
large IL the New York state convention
was instructed for Chief Judge Parker.
The Significance of the whole matter, it
was added. may not be Of much concern,

president. first. OF Chief Judge Parker
and second OF Senator German. Mr..
Mack who is aware of the misunder-
standing between Ma. Hill and Mr.. Muir

matter could be explained to the salts

The Democrats who are close to Mr..
Hill and chief Judge Parker. including
han, declared IL TO be their conviction
that they would have 300 OF the 800 dele
gates I'm the state convention for an in.
