The union miners in the Cripple
Creek camp have been ordered out
of the. town and vicinity. Many of
them have been arrested and forced
to leave. The merchants, mine
,wners and business men have
signed an agreement to employ no
man in any capacity wi atever that
belongs to a union. The fight is
now on in earnest between the union
and non-union forces and it looks
very much like the unions in that To-
cality will have to 90. When unions
are dominated by unprincipled and
lawless men like the miners union
in that locality seems to have been
they should be wiped out root and
branch. They are a menace to lib
erty and a disgrace and detriment

Score One.

The people of the gas belt have
won first blood in the big fight to
keep the gas at home.
The hearing came up in Topeka,
Tuesday, before the charter board,
when the gas piping company or
ganized in Delaware asked for a
franchise to pipe Kansas gas to Mis-
souri, cities. There appeared before
the board large delegation of earn
est, determined men from the gas
belt to oppose the franchise.
The board investigated the mat
ter and decided that the company
had not complied with Kansas laws
and turned the application down.
The matter must be watched
closely, however, as these schemers
are likely to bring it up again in
some other form.

Real Mother of Trusts.

Judge Gaynor, of the Supreme
Court of New York, and a Demo
crat of prominence, takes no stock
in the proposition that "the Tariff
s the mother of trusts" He says,
IN the contrary, that "freight ia
voritism is the mother of trusts, "
and he points to the fact that Stan
dard Oil, the first of the great trusts,
was built up wholly by discrimina-
ton on the part of the railroads.
There is no question as to the sound
ness of Judge Gaynor's contention.
Trusts were in the first instance
made practicable through special
favors granted by railroads in the
shape of reduced transportation
rates ON trust products. What was
true in the early days of the great
oil monopoly, when trust oil was
carried to market for dollar bar
rel, or one-half the rate exacted
from non-trust oil producers, is in
great measure true today. There is
probably not trust operating now
in the United States that does not
enjoy the benefit of reduction or
rebate in one form or another of
transportation charges. According
to Judge Gaynor, the railroads no
longer pay their rebates in cash, but
accomplish the same result by un-
derweighing and underbilling.
The Democratic platform of 1904
will urge the repeal of the Dingley
Tariff on the ground that it is to the
trusts as the hen is to her chickens
= first lays the trust eggs, then
matches the trust eggs and then
shelters the trusts under her wings.
Judge Gaynor, Democrat of
distinction and authority, disputes
this. Having looked into the mat
ter thoroughly he is convinced that
while trusts might exist without the
aid of a Protective Tariff, they
could not have originated and could
not now survive without the aid of
favoritism In freight rates. That
is pretty much the truth and the
whole truth of the trust question.

Paper elIino oflincoln's Assass
ination Used to Pack Beer
Bottles.

In emptying barrel of old bot
ties which had been shipped in from
Indian Territory yesterday, Eugene
McGovern, cooper employed at
Helms brewery, found a copy of
the New York Herald, dated April
S, 1865, giving full accoun: OF
the assassination of Abraham Lin
coin.
Few barrels of empty bottles are
shipped back from Indian Territory
and Mr.. McGovern thinks perhaps
it takes half century to fill a bar
rel of "empties" in a prohibition
state.-Kansas City Journal.
A rather unique find but Mr..
McGovern needs little education
m the customs Of prohibition states.
A Chanute boy would be ashamed
to show such ignorance about
'empties."

Santa Fe Strike

The Santa Fe strike among the
machinists reached Chanute Tues
day morning.
Most of the machinists employed
in the round house here went out.
The boys walked quietly out ano
seemed to have no disposition to in
terfere with anybody else.
So far as we can learn, the boy
here seem to have no grievance, but
go out through sympathy.
That is one phase of union ism
that works a great hardship and
that we can not indorse.
Many good men lose their jobs
and get the worst of the deal
through sympathetic strikes that
they have no personal interest what
ever In.

Fearful Disaster.

The General Slocum, an excur-
sion boat, plying about New York
harbor, on the 18th was loaded with
a large number of Sunday school
people, mostly women and children,
out for their annual excursion.
When near He'll gate in the east
river the vessel caught fire and in a
short time was almost completely
enveloyed In flames, The vessel
was in a swift current full of eddys
and whirlpools.
The flames reached the passen-
gers and as the clothing of the wo.
men and children caught fire they
rushed over the rails and plunged
into the raging floods. The vesse
was headed for the shore beached
but not till several hundred of hel
passengers we're either burned tc
death or drowned.
Tie vessel was burned to the
waters edge and the loss of life Is
placed at near 500. mostly womer
and children. 1t is "a fearful thins
and almost equals the Chicago
theatre horror.

from the Seat Any Now The Armies
The Eastern War.

The long looked for IN the East,
ern war Seems to be about to hap
pen. The Japanese in Manchuria
are making a general advance e on
the Russian forces.
Considerable fighting is already
reported with the Russians continu-
ally falling back to their main lines
of defence. The great land battle
of the war is now probably on unless
the Russian forces deem best to
retreat TO their last strong hold,
Mukden.
The Russian army is supposed to
be nearly 10000 strong. The
Japs will make a heroic effort to
crush and demoralize this large
force before additional reinforce
ments can arrive. Russia is now
taxing the capacity of the Siberian
road to its utmost capacity in an
effort to hurl overwhelming numbers
against the advancing JapS.
They seem now to be using the
road to transport more than sup
plies and are likely to find a little
later that they have vast army in
that distant land without supplies.
At the same time the Russian navies
are not idle. The Vladivostok fleet
has made break in an effort to
form union with the Port Arthur
division and has been intercepted
in the straits between Korea and
Japan by Japanese war vessels ano
a big naval battle is reported as
being in progress, with no partlcu-
lars.
Several vessels of the Port Arthur
fleet also made a sortie, evidently
expecting to meet the Vladivostok
fleet.
The Japs were alert to the move
and drove the vessels back. If the
Japs can succeed in destroying the
Vladivostok f1eetthat they now have
on the wing, they Will have easy
work, with the rest of the Russian
vessels.
Militery critics all seem to agree
that Port Arthur must fall. With
the Russian feet wiped out, Por'
Arthur in the hands of the
laps as a base, the large army
Investing it can be sent north to
operate with the Japs against
Kuropatkin and the Russians will be
in hard lines.

LOWER EXPORT PRICES.
They Make it Possible to Employ
Laber and Pay Wages.

1t is alleged, and with truth, that
American manufactures are sold
abroad at lower price than a
nome, in several instances. This
is supposed to prove that they do
not needProtection, as they can
compete with the foreigner on his
own ground. The inference is
plausible, but mistaken. Every
establishment which is dong busi-
ness on a great scale has the facil-
ity for producing an excess of goods,
which it could sell at lower price
than it must ask for its product as
a whole. Just as railroads can
carry certain kinds of freight at a
figure which they could not accept
for all kinds, so the makers Of many
classes of goods can find profit in
an extra-production for export, at
price which would be ruinous if they
sold all their product at the same
figure. In producing this excess
they leave out of account the stand
ing charges of their establishment
and count only the cost of labor
and materials and the wear of ma
chinery.
They would ruin their market il
they sold this surplus at home, but
not If they sent it abroad, and sothey
export it. A friend of mine Was
buying blankets for the Indians on
behalf of the Government, and he
was surprised to find the manufact-
urers offering them at prices far be-
low what they always had asked OF
him. He asked why the difference,
and was told that what the Govern
ment bought was taken righr ut of
the market; but they could not
afford to give the same prices to
any one WHO was in the market.
Unless these export prices are
resorted to, our manufa cturers can
not export on the scale they now do.
They cannot employ and pay labor
as they now do. And if they cease
to export on these terms nobody in
this country will be pin the better,
as prices will not be lower for what
is sold at home, but probably high
er. The Free Trader suggests that
with the repeal of Protection this
abuse would cease. So it would,
along with our manufacturing gen.
orally. We should have "thrown
out the baby with the BATH" as the
Germans say. Very soon we should
see foreign manufacturers produc-
ing for this country, where their
goods would be sold cheaper than
at home, in order to get rid of our
competition, as they did under the
Tariffs of 1916, 1885, 1916, 1857
and ISo3.-Robert Ellis Thompson,
in "Freeman's Journal"

cause they We're not larger They
drew the line on the appropriation
for the old soldier. That was the one
extravaganza of the Roosevelt Ad-

ecutive usurpation which they speci-
fed. The Democrats of the Mort h
may be honest in their profession of
friendship for the old soldier, but
that party is controlled by the Dem
ocrats of the South, who are now, as
they always have been, opposed to
pensions for the Union vetera Ms. The
South will continue to control the
Democratic caucus in the House of
Representatives, and dictate the pol
icy of that party toward pensions,

cratic candidates for Congress in the
North and West. If the Democrats

The Democrats favor Liberal pen
sions" for the old soldiers. aud de-
nOunce the alleged executive usurpa-
ton of President Roosevelt is causing
to be issued the order recognizing
total disability at the age of 20, and
half disability at the age of 90 wears.
The Democratic spellbinders may not
be able to see the inconsistency of
their professions, but it will not be
difficult for the old soldiers to see it.
The one act alleged executive usurpa-
ton pointed out by the Democrats
and so loudly complained Of by them,
is that in behalf of the old soldiers.
That order has two excellent prec-
cedents. President Cleveland's Com
missioner of Pensions, Judge Loeb
ran, who was strict constructionist,
interpreted the Pension Act of 1890
as recognizing total disability at the
age of IS years. President McKinley's
Commissioner of Pensions, Mr.. Evans.
further interpreted that act as recog-
nizing half disability at the age of go
years. There was no fault found with
these rulings.
The Democrats used the ruling of
Commissioner Lochran as proof of
Democratic friendship for the old
soldier. The order of President
Roosevelt's Commissioner DIMENSIONS,
Mr.. Ware, is in line with the pre-
cedents established by Cleveland and
Mckinley, but it goes further in the
direction which the old soldier. have
claimed is justitiable and was intend
ed by Congress in the passage of that
Act. 1t is also in line with the Acts
of Congress providing that officers of
the regular Army may retire at the
age of 81, and are compelled to retire
at the age of g..
The present Administration has
fixed the age of total disability at 20
years, of half disability at go years.
and has provided graduated scale
between these two extremes. If the
Democrats favor liberal pensions. why
do they denounce as executive usur-
patton an order in line with the prec-
edent already established by a Dem I
ocratic President and Republican
President? If Democrats are in favor
OF service pension as some of those
from the North have claimed. why
did the Democrats in Congress vote
against an appropriation of 81 800, 900
as deficiency to carry into effect
this order of Commissioner Ware?
The Democrats denounce the pres
ent Administration for reckless ex-
travagance and for executive usur-
patton, and yet the pension order is
the only act giving them excuse for
either claim. The Democrats Oh the
committee of appropriations made
only one minority report. That was
against the appropriation of 81, 800, 900
