Their Usual Methods TO De-
feat the President.

The Cincinnati cial-Tribune
comes forward with third editorial,
warning the republican party against
the nomination Of Mr.. Roosevelt. This,
like the other two, is In high key, says
the Washington Star, and very strongly
suggests the siren Of q railroad locomo-
tive speeding along with It's wheels well
creased with Standard oil. II the Pier
pont Morgan Rockefeller trust and mine
owners combination, whose anti-Roose-
welt maneuvers have been SO thoroughly
exposed within the past few days, had
prepared these deliverances they would
not have differed In any degree from
their present nature. They contribute
to the purpose of that combination, and
meet its wishes. But these lively blasts
awaken no echo, and leave their author
or authors exposed and ridiculous. II
they have served any other than the
purpose intended 1t has been to show
that the president is easily the one man
his party has in view for next years
nomination. Outside of trust and dis
gruntled railroad circles, no other name
is seriously mentioned at all.
The enormous amount of money rep
resented In this anti-Roosevelt crusade
is something for the people to consider
Mr.. Rockefeller is the richest man In
the world; Pierpont Morgan is very
rich; the disgruntled railroad interests
command hundreds of millions Of dol
lars; the big trusts are numerous; the
coal mine owners control millions of cap
ital The operations Of all these inter-
ests are widely extended, and they en-
ploy a great army of men. II they are
as active as this in the green tree, what
may be expected of them In the dry?
When they fail-as they will fail--to
defeat Mr.. Roosevelt for the nomina-
ton, what turn willthey take to try to
defeat him at the. polls? How many
Inquiries" will they make then about
local sentiment here and there, and how
many favorable responses will they re-
ceive?
And the people, we may be sure, will
consider these things. The peoples best
interests are menaced by them. Here is
an effort to control both parties. The
first play is for control of the republic
can party. That will fail. Then atten-
ton will be centered on the democratic
party. Who is the man that this grea.
plutocratic crowd want for the demo-
cratic nomination? And how will they
make play for him?
These buccaneers should be, and will
be, defeated. They are without politics
or scruple, turning from one party to
the other as time runs, and endeavoring
to use both for individual as against the
public interests. Being in a close cor
ner now, they are little more open than
ordinary. Their tactics are little closer
to the naked eye.

ence, for these letters must come on to
make room for the others.
After the hands, OF the performer are
tied, he goes into the pocket with ono
hand, takes the pair OF scissors and
cuts the letters. AS his hands are tied
behind his back, nobody can see this
manipulation. The old letters are put
away in his pocket and the new fetteY
is made ready for use. This second fet-
ter Is made In the following way. The
band used is just as long as the one
used to tie the hands.
On each end simple knot is made
(a), then a loose knot in the shape OF q
loop (b), allowing the band to slip for
tightening around the wrists and loosen
ing as the performer desires (a-B).
After the original letters are cut and
the coat is taken of the performer slips
both hands into the loops and pulls
them tight.
This fetter cannot be distinguished
from the original one. BY repeating

DEMOCRATS WILL oBSTRUcT.
to Defeat the Wishes of
Malcontents Combine with Railroads
the People.

1t is evident that the democratic SEN
ators are about to come to the aid OF the
transcontinental railroads by refusing
to advise and consent to any treaty with
the republic of Panama for the con-
struction of a canal. AS they have more
than one-third of the senate, 1t Is plain
that they can prevent the ratification
of any such treaty, and as the steering
committee" is said to be unanimously in
favor of opposition on partisan grounds,
we may be sure that the railroad mag
mates feel that the bogy of canal compe-
tition is effectively suppressed for the
present, says the San Francisco Chron-
icle.
The session of congress preceding a
presidential election is time when all
other issues are subordinated by the
minority to attempts to put the party in
power in what is hoped to be "a hole"
1t is certain that the present session
will be no exception to the rule, and prob
able that it will prove to be shining eX-
ample. 1t may well be doubted, however,
whether an attempt to prevent the con-
struction of an isthmian canal by the
only route by which it now seems that
1t csn be constructed will be found good
politics" The people of the United
States want the canal. The transconti-
mental railroad corporations do not
want 1t. The route decided upon Is in
possession of the republic of Panama.
That republic wishes to promptly me-
gotiate treaty to enable us to promptly
build the canal. The democrats, for
what they think to be good partisan mo-
tives, propose to join the corporations
to defeat the will of the people. That is
undoubtedly good railroad politics and
should assure very large railroad con-
tributions to the democratic campaign
fund, but while 1t may bring money, we
do not think it will bring votes.

"'wnl you walk into my parlorr

said the spluer 10 the ny.
This time 1t was not the fly that the
willy spider sought to entangle in his
meshes, but small bird, against which
he felt he had just cause tor grievance.
1t seems that during the past season
the Field museum at Chicago has been
infested with large quantities Of OBJ
noxious spiders. They have festooned
the ceiling and great columns OF the
building with yards Of their shuttle
WORK, much to the annoyance OF the
authorities. Scrubwomen and Janitors
have tried in vain to relieve the building
of the pests and their work. Even the
suggestions of frost did not seem to
greatly diminish the insects. Finally
wee brown creeper, discovering the
state Of things there. decided to take up
his abode inside and assist the authors
ties in Kidding the building Df the pests
For several days he fitted about very
much as he pleased, combining himself
mainly to the rear entrance room, wag-
ging up and down column after column
and probing his long bill into every crew
! ice. With his murderous vigilance he
actually carried on very effective work
there. He seemed q permanent fixture.
and the authorities and the public eyed
him amusedly.
The other morning, however, as a cur
ator of one of the departments was
passing, a guard remarked:
There's bird for your collection
Looks as IL 1t was done for"
The bird lay painting on its side at the
bottom of one Of the columns.

took the little creeper in his hands.
The guard held buzzlng fly on the
point of pin to the birds beak. saw II
bite at it voraciously.
Doesn't look as II he were going to
die" said the scientist Il wonder
what's the matter with him. anyway"
Turning the bird over in his hand, he
found It had been entrapped in large
spiders web, which had bound the wins
and tail together in such manner -
to preclude flying. 1t looked as II some
wise old spider had resented the BIRDS
work Of determination and had purpose

The queer bandage was removed ana
