UNWORTHY OF TRUST.
Gold Dem ocrats Stunning the Hill
Sheehan Combiuati>n.


The Gold Democrats of Indiana are
unwilling to trust Judge Parker's spon-
sors. They are willing to contribute Sl0.-
600 to the campaign fund, but the money
will not be sent to the HILLSIDE thal
combination. They have asked Parker
himself to take the money. If the Demo
Gratis are unwilling to trust their leaders,
how can the mass of the people be ex-
pected to take any stock in the profess
sions and promises of the party? II the
Gold Democrats are correct in their esti-
mate of Parker's managers. the latter
are no better than a gang of sand-bag-
gers. Sterling r. Holt, one of the lead
ing Gold Democrats of Indiana, said 4
few days ago: THE Gold Democrats
are not going to be coaxed behind IL
barn and relieved of their money and
then driven to the polls and voted"
1t is gratifying to learn that such 4
man as Mr.. Holt entertains the same
view of Hill and Sheehan that Repub-
hcans do, but it is somewhat remarkable
that Mr.. Holt does not realize that Par.
ker is merely the creature of his man
ayers. and that any money given to the
judge will find its way. through some
channel, to Democratic headquarters.

PARKER's DEFICIT SCARE.
II Is kasi1y Exploded by an Appeal
to Facts and Figures.

to Facts and Figures.
The Ulster County candidate, labor
ing hard over Judge Parker's speech to
the faithful Democratic editors, scissored
ont some statistics with which to ham
mer the Republican administration. But
while the judge was toiling over his
empty sentences,
"His cogitative faculties immersed
In eogibundity OF cogitation,'
his aptitude for figures went on a vaca-
ton and he prepared, or accepted, some
very queer conclusions, which he gave
to the admiring editors with much pomp
and circumstance.
The trouble is that the Ulster County
politicians deficit is not deficit at
all. when it comes to realities. The Re-
publieans delightedly accept the chal-
lenge Of the Democratic candidate for it
gives them chance to show a few sta
tistics themselves.
Judge Parker asserts" says a Wash
ington dispatch to the Chicago Chron-
icle, that there is now deficit of 49,
OOO,OO0, instead of a surplus of $4,000
900, which Mr.. Roosevelt found on be-
coming President. Both statements are
reckless. as careful examination Of
the records of the treasury will show.
In regard to the deficit. the receipts and
expenditures for the fiscal year ending
June 30. 1904, show an apparent deficit
OF $40,OO0.O00 in round numbers. but
during that time the United States pail
SJ0,000.0O0 for a Panama canal and adj
vanced S4.5O0.000 to the Louisiana pur-
chase exposition, which latter amount is
to be returned to the government. If
Mr.. Parker will deduct his apparent def
cit of SI2.oO0.000 from the S54.5OO. 900
paid for the purchase of the Panama
canal and the eneoura cement Of an ex-
