Short circular capes are all the
fashion right now. Those most In
vogue for early autumn weather are
of coarse lace; any lace like Cluny.
BRUCE or point venise is In favor. The
capes vary in length. Sometimes they
fall just to the shoulders. others reach
to the bust line. and still others
touch the waist. In ecru or dyed to
match the color of the gown they will
be the most fashionable during the
early fall. The smart girl is sure to
contrive many novel ways OF adding
to the charm of her cape. She may
fasten 1t down the front with big.
artistic-looking buttons. or 1t may
have the effect of being tied together
with many smart-looking little black
satin bows. II she wishes to more
decidedly change Its effect, she will
slip satin messaline or velvet ribbons
through the meshes of the lace at
either side of the front. At the neck
the ribbons are tied in rosettes, and
men again bit further down.

NOT ENTITLED TO SYMPATHY.

Representative Champ Clark of Mis-

House Monday with the first Democrat
tic campaign speech Of the year. NJ
Clark cc4En ned himself almost ezclu

which it fosters and upbuilds protected
trusts and combinations. The speaker
was at his best in his handbag of tie
paper trust. He confessed that ne was

high tariff in season and cut Of ae2son
squirming now at being forced to take
a dose Of their own medicine.
when consumers Of articles con-
trolled by trusts ii general have rais.
ed a howl said Mr.. Clark, " these
same Republican editors who now split
the welkin with their protest against
extortions Of the paper trust have look
ed on with a sardonic grin on their
faces and have about as much sympa-
thy for their victims as the old woman
had for the eels squirming in hot skill
let" Continuing, Mr.. Clark said he had
introduced in three Congresses bills
to put wood pulp, white paper and all
the ingredients in the composition on
the free list. But the Republicans in
variably defeated the bills.
Really, the Republican editors haven't
much right, badly as they and other
newspaper owners are affected by the
workings of the paper trust to COM
plain. They are reaping what they
themselves have sowed. By their
screams of pain now they are pulling
up evidence in support of contentious
they have often denied, that the tar
if does breed and foster trusts and
that the only way to suppress the
trusts is to lop Of the tariff from the
articles coming into competition with
trust-made products.
The paper trust has been and is par
ticularly arrogant. 1t has created an ar
tiIiclal famine in print paper and so
increased prices to American publish
ers; it has sold paper abroad cheaper
than it well sell paper at home. 1t has
made a fair profit on the paper sold
abroad and an enormous profit on the
paper sold at home. If the tariff were
removed from the foreign made
paper, from wood pulp and other mater
ial that enters into the manufacture
Of paper, the trust would not be forced
out of business, but it would be compel
led to deal fairly with it's patrons.
