date citizenship of this country. The
business interests know that he is
conservative-not a destructionist.
He builds parties-but does not de-
stroy them. He is in the prime of his
mental and physical vigor. There
awaits him the highest prize known to
mankind-tne election of a president.
He is equal to the occasion. He will
lead the democracy to victory. Parker
and Davis will be elected. Mr.. Taggart
is the man of the hour. The democracy
will not regret the action of its COM
mittee. He will honor the party-and
no honor is too big or too good for him.
The Sentinel is confident that the
committee acted with wisdom and for
the success of the party. 1t believes
the results in November will show it.
His election is worth 10000 votes to
Indiana democracy. The party will
nave the most perfect organization
ever in the state. Let every man put
his shoulder to the wheel and follow

GLASFORD EXPLAINS POSITION.

Editor Of the Statesman.
In your issue of the 4th inst. l find an
article copied from the Spokesman
Review and headed, rs This Truth or
Fiction?" In justice to all concerned
1 can truthfully say that it is purely
fiction. In the first place 1 will start
out by saying that politically I have
not felt kindly to j. B. Wilson. 1 will
further define my political standing by
saying that I always have been a con-
sistent republican, but I am not what
they call a Holy Roller To define
my position fully am in harmony with
the policy Of Governor Mcbride. Mr..
Wilson did not apply for the position
Of city surveyor. / was the first per-
son to suggest his name. He had not
been thought of by any other member
Of the city council. I did not know that
he was in the county at the time. I
never thought of politics. l had some
experience with MIN for the past 90
yaers and thought he would give the
city good service and | don't think his
present status will disturb the city of
Walla Walla.
Yours respectfully.

Tonight and Saturday fair.
REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN IN
DANGER.

There was sharp rivalry for all the
places on the democratic state ticket
except governor, which was conceded
to Turner by unanimous consent from
the start. No one declined nominal
ton on the state ticket. Several de-
clined the nomination for congress be-
cause it is admitted by everybody that
the democrats have little show to elect
q congressman from this state SO long
as the state is not divided into con-
gressional districts, according to the
spirit of the national constitution and
he law of the land. However, if the
next house of representatives should
have a democratic majority there is a
strong probability that the republican
representatives. from this state will be
smut out and the stae go unrepresent-
ed because of the refusal Of republican
legislatures in this state since 1900 to
apportion the state into districts, aC-
cording to the law and custom fol-
lowed in every other state of the Tn
ion. In their greediness to hog the
whole thing the republican majority
in this state may be as unlucky as the
dog that dropped it's bone into the
river in grabbing for its shadow.

NOT ALL HARMONIOUS.

1t is refreshing to hear Mr.. Roose-
welt say:
I'VE are not constrained to keep ST
lent on any vital question; we are di-
vided on no vital question; our policy is
continuous and is the same for all Sec
lions and localities
We are to understand then, that the
candidate, or the party, speaks its mind
on all vital questions. and must there
fore conclude that it has no opinions
whatever on the trust question. We
may properly go back to Mr. Roose-
velt's first message to congress for the
machines notion of trusts where he IN
timated that they were good" and
urged that nothing be done against
them. Presumably he now regrets
that the Northern Securities prosecu-
ton was ever launched. His failure to
mention that case is most conspicuous.
In observing that I'VE are not divided
on any vital question: ne obviously re-
fers to himself and the organization
which nominated him-or, rather, by
which he nominated himself. The we
cannot be taken to mean the republican
masses. The public recalls how the Or
ganization choked the extensive prore-
vision sentiment into silence wherever
it attempted to assert itself in state
representation. The fight against the
Iowa idea was the feature of republican
politics in several states prior to the
working out Of HARMONY in the ma
chine conventions. A vast body of re-
publican voters holds to it's prorevision
views and will speak at the polls in ia
vor Of sane reductions in the tariff
where such are palpably necessary. the
reductions to be made by the friends
of the people and not by the friends of
monopoly. Mr.. Roosevelt cannot
truthfully assert that there is no divis-
ion between the Republican rank and
file and the machine on this point.

BOTH TO BLAME.

The meat. packers are claiming a vic
tory in their fight with their former
employees, while the strikers as firmly
assert the certainty of their ultimate
success. 1t is too early to predict the
outcome, but it is not too early to ex-
press regret that neither side has been
of the other.
The mana cement of the strike seems
to have been deplorably lacking in de-
liberation and caution. The situation
was not one to warrant reckless over
confidence on the part of the strikers.
The labor market would not justify it,
and the precipitate action of President
Donnelly in declaring the second strike
seems to expose the lack of those quail
ties of leadership which are essential to
the fullest success. John Mitchell
would never have lost his head as Mr..
Donnelly seems to have done.
On the other hand, the packers, if
they desired to make trouble for them
selves, in repulsng the strikers
adopted the right policy. Seeing the
temper Of the men, recognizing the
concessions they had made in coming
back to work with an arrangement for
arbitration and conditional rein
statement, it would have been easy and
polite and decent for the packers to
have met their old employees with an
expression of regret for the temporary
disturbance of their relations and that
they were unable to take them all back
Immediately, but with assurance that
this would be done as soon as the re-
vival of business made it possible. The
treatment of the returning strikers,
however, on the part of the foremen
been we'll calculated to arouse ill-feel-
ing and distrust. all of which was en-
tirely Unnecessary unless the packers
really wished to have more trouble.
Happily the public has not suffered
seriously as yet from the butchers
strike, but the suffering imposed upon
the families of the strikers is a most
deplorable and distressing fact already
manifest.

why Portland and other places In our

men in his mines of the 81 cents a ton,
or any part of it. Such pretense is the
greatest of all humbugs.
"One day this whole scheme and sys-
TEN will get terrible setback. the
danger is that greed for subsidy and
for protection will be pushed SO far
that the revulsion will be extreme and
destructive. Reform is due, but the
remedy should be slowly applied.
Thus, the ship subsidy ought to be re-
sisted: and thus, when coal was on the
free list, it ought to have been kept
there.
The Oregonian has mingled herein
certain first principles with a few
neighborly amenities. 1t must say,
further, that it has a good deal Of fear
that these schemes of greed and grab,

and historical, The Oregonian can have
no confidence. 1t has hope Of the cleo
ton of Theodore Roosevelt the true
man of the people; but it is not sure.
If, however, he shall be beaten, it will
be through revolt aaginst the schemes
of subsidy hunters, greedy protection
lists and trust promoters, who are out
for everything in sight, and who try
to work the democratic party as we'll
as the republican. But the republican
party, being in power. may first re-
ceive the shock Of the country's dis

CLAIMS THAT HIS WIFE is AMPLY
ABLE TO SUPPORT
HERSELF.
He Alleges That She Was Very Ex
travagant and Would Have
Bankrupted Him.

The case of Agnes McRea versus
Faraqher McRea came up for hearing
before Judge Brents this morning. The
defendant filed an answering affidavit
and John H. Pedigo argued the case in
his behalf, claiming that the facts
showed that the plaintiff did not need
and was not entitled to the money
asked for her maintenance. The judge
continued the case until tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock in order to give
the attorneys time to cite authorities
T. P. Gose will make the argument for
plaintiff tomorrow.
The answering affidavit filed by the
defendant is quite lengthy and meets
the issue sQuarely at all points. After
alleging that plaintiff and defendant
had each of them five children, that
two of his were under age and that one
Bessie McRea it was understood
should live with plaintiff and defend
ant, he claims that shortly after their
marriage plaintiff became very extrav-
aga1t and bought unnecessarily many
costly articles and commenced sys-
tenn of grossly waiting his money. That
she purchased a large amount of things
on defendants credit ard that in spite
Of his protests she bought quantities
of groceries and delivered them to 9TH
er families. That he was forced to
notify merchants to refuse her credit
to protect himself from abject poverty.
That plaintiff became provoked at this
and ordered his daughter. Bessie Nc
Rea. to leave their house and threaten
ed to scald her if she refused. He
thereupon told his wife that if Bessie
went he would have to go to and she
told him to go and he went. He al
leges that it was understood at the time
that he should go quietly and no suit
for divorce should be brought by him
and that Mrs. McRea's daughter had
DeSSeO MN not TO Dllng a suit pc
cause of the disgrace it would bring on
the family.
He further objects TO plaintiffs de-
as alleged in the complaint of plaintiff.
but claims that he is only worth about
$1,000 all told. That $1,000 of this
is loaned at interest for long term
of years at per cent and that his
home in Walla Walla is worth about
$4,000 That his entire income from all
sources will not exceed the sum of
$1,000 per year. That with the most
prudent management this is no more
than what is necessary to support him,
as he is getting old and feeble and In
capable of active work.
He ufrther objects to plaintiffs de-
mand for money on the ground that
they agreed at the time of their mar
riage that the property of eacn was
to be held separate and apart from the
other. Besides this he ayers plaintiff
has plenty of property of her own and
needs no money to prosecute the suit.
This he proceeds to itemize as a COM
munity or half interest in farm lands
worth s22,SO0, which belonged to her

RIGHT MAN FOR THE PLACE.

The indianapolis Sentinel says:
The democratic national committee
acted today with great wisdom in elect
ing Hon. Thomas Taggart chairman.
He is always a true democrat. He new
er falters in his splendid devotion to
democracy. He is a born politician. He
knows how to conduct a campaign He
sustains an intimate acquaintance and
cordial relations with all the leading
democrats in the United States They
love him. They believe in him. They
trust him, for he is the very soul of
honor.
LAS an organizer he has few equals
and no superiors. In fine, he knows the
game of politics from Alpha to Omega.
He can arouse enthusiasm in the rank
and file. He can map out political cam
paigns and execute the plans. Again,
he is a first class business man and a
splendid representative of the up-to-
