NOT A BELIEVER IN CLAWS FA-
NOUS ASSERTION.

Colonel Henry Watterson has been
at Esopus, and now the announc-
ment is made that the Democratic
hopeful Moses will not go to st. Louis
and he will make no speeches during
the campaign. This comes from Judge
Parker's own lips. An hours heart

was sufficient to convince the sage of
Espous that he could not hoodwink
American farmers and mechanics,
much less the conservative business
men of the country, into the belief
that he was not straddler on the
financial plank. The Democratic
slogan: Let us get into office and
then talk about policies, platforms
and laws, but get into Office is an i'll
omen that means destruction to their
own bulwarks, and none realize it
more today than do the leaders of the
Democracy. When party is afraid
to permit its champion to go upon
the hastings and tell the yotersIwhere
he stands on the important issues
there is something radically wrong,
and old Colonel Watterson was smart
enough to see it and told the Demo-
cratic candidate to keep his mouth
shut.
Is that the kind of man you want
to place in the Presidential chair, Mr..
Voter?
Senator Beveridge says Parker will
be defeated by a greater majority
than any candidate since the war.
The Republicans are willing to stand
on their record, but the Democrats
make no effort to stand on their own,
nor are they willing to declare their
policy and permit their banner-bea
er to speak his own thought. Parker
and his Democratic henchmen should

ing. In the solitude of Tekoa he adj
dressed himself to the task. Here he
probably composed the grand Mes
sianic epilogue." Traces of the origi-
nal, oral delivery, however, show
themselves in spite of the elaborate
literary finish. Chief among them
are the abrupt, short clauses.
One of Webster's brother once said,
jestingly, ''TheY had to send Daniel
to school to make him as smart as
the rest of us were naturally" Amos
did not need even the school of the
prophets. Nature and humanity
were his university. He was a master
of arts in both.
\ popular magazine. in a recent
issue, had symposium of 'If Lincoln
had Gone to SCHOOL," 1t was sug-
gested that he might have been less
melancholy if he had the opportuni-
ty of recreation and diversion in the
field which a liberal education would
have opened to him. But the con-
sensus was that there might also have
been dangerous abatement of ma
tive force and originality. Amos and
Lincoln, however, are the exceptions
which prove the rule that school is
the best place for the average boy.
Twenty-six hundred years have
passed since Amos reduced his say
ings to writing. But the principles
which underlie his splendid book are
philosphic and fundamental. They
are universally and perpetually APP
plicable. Among them are these;
Oppression and luxury will destroy
any people, RIG hteousness only will
eXalt.
Amos showed that the overfowing
material wealth of Israel was only
the phosphorescence on decay. It's
doom was a scant sixty years away.
| They thought that they stood at the
very instant Of falling.
The accepted idea of prophet is
too mechanical. We have been accus-
toned TO think of one called to this
office as so possessed by the Divine
Spirit that his personal will and judg'
ment are practically supplanted. He
is moved like an automatom. A verse
in st. James's Epistle turns a strong
light upon the prophetic office and
corrects our misrepresentation, Elijah
was man of like nature as we are
So every prophet in and out of his
special function is perfectly norma
character. No prophet must be taker
out of the category of the normal. st
James affirms that the prophets
feelings and emotions are just such as
ours would be under similar circum-
stances.

WHO WANTS A CHANGE?


President has voiced the one real and
tangible Democratic Tissue of this
campaign. 1t is a demandIfOr a po-
litical change, that the, Democratic
party shall again have the admins
tration of public affairs because in
dustrial conditions are not satisfac-
tory.
We have heard this Democratic
lament over industrial conditions
before. 1t was loud and long COM
plant in 1892, at a time when all writ
ers on political economy and all COM
parsons with previous periods agreed
was the most prosperous era in the
United States up to that time. Bust
ness was good, work was plenty,
wages were higher than ever before.
But the Democratic party complained
of high prices and demanded a
change. They won that election.
They received from the majority of
the voters warrant to proceed with
their change in the economic policy
of the Government. The change
came Immediately after the election.
Capital sat down to wait for the
change and labor was compelled to
wait for its wages and the means of
living. There were more than
100000 men thrown out of work
and public relief. was the most con-
spicuous institution in every great
city in the land. There were soup
kitchens and Coxey armies, not made
up of hoboes, but of loyal, earnest
and Inundated working-men who
had been independent and self-re-
speeding, but who had been driven to
the direct want by the Democratic
threat of change.
The expenditures of the Govern
ment were greater than the receipts
for every year of the Democratic
Administration. Bonds were issued
for more than hundred millions to
meet the current expenses of the
Government. The interest bearing
debt was increased, at time when
people were least able to have such
an increase.
The reign of cheap prices did come
with Cleveland's election and the
cheapest commodity in the country
was labor. Men who had labor to
sell could not find a market. The
farmer found that he could not sell
his crops and horses, cattle, sheep
and hogs, for what it cost him to pro-
duce them. He had to give a mort
gage on his farm.to pay his debts.
That Democratic change in 1892 cost
the American people more money in
losses than any change that had ever
been made in the economic policy of
the Government. And in 1896 there
was a universal demand for another
change, any kind of change to get
away from the free-trade policy of
the Cleyeland Administration. The
Democrats were even louder in their
complaint than were Republicans.
The Democratic Convention repudiat-
ed Cleveland and his administration,
and with wild frenzy followed William
j. Bryan in demand for free-silver
policy that would create more money.
There Were no friends anywhere for
the men responsible for the change
in 1899.
The memories of the people are
often short especially in time of pros
perity. But we doubt if the Ameri-
can people have forgotten the results
of the last political change they order
ed, when Other Democrats voiced the
Democratic demand just as Mr.. Davis
did in his speech of acceptance.

WAS ARMED WITH PISTOL AND knife

E. Farrell, an ex-convict, who was
released from the state penitentiary
Friday morning, is now in the city
jail He was picked up on Main street
today by Officer Mike Davis, and will
be held pending an investigation.
The police were notified yesterday by
the prison officials that Farrell had
been released, having served out his
term, and to look out for him, as he
was a desperate character The police
watched him all day put last night he
could not be located and it was sup
posed that he had left town. About
noon today Officer Davis spied Farrell
on Main street and he took him into
custody. He was taken to the office
of Chief Brown and searched. On his
person was found 3S-callibre pistol,
dirk knife about eight inches in length,
four anger bits and 10 skeleton keys.
He also had $17.S5 in money.
When questioned Farrell informed
the officer that he had purchased the
pistol from a second hand store and
the anger bits from the Cullen Hard
ware company. At first he refused to
say anything about the skeleton keys,
but after considerable Sweating" he
claimed that he made them while in
| prison and that they had been cached
| near the prison gate by one of the
| teamsters at the penitentiary, who was
| a 'trusty." He claimed that he did not
go after the keys last night, but that
he had a friend who got them for him
last night.
Farrell begged very hard to be let off
| and assured the officer that he would
he did not intend to remain in Walla
Walla nor was it his intention to turn
trick here" Officer Davis would not
let him go and he is now in Jail. 1t is
probable that charge of carrying
concealed weapons and having burglar
tools in his possession will be lodged
against him.
1t was reported this afternoon that
while serving in the penitentiary Far
rell had frequently told the other con-
victs that when he was released he
would fix" Chief Turnkey McGlachlin
and Warden Dryden. and it is supposed
that he was hanging around the city
for the purpose of getting a chance to
carry out his threats.
The prison officials doubt the story
that Farrell gave out about making the
keys at the prison and they say it
would be impossible for him to have
had them cached at the prison without
detection. They are Of the opinion that
Farrell got the keys from some of his
former pals.
Farrell was one of the worst crimi-
nails that has ever been in the peni-
tertiary ana constantly caused the Of
ficerS at that institution much trouble.
He has served three terms in the pen
itentiary. The first time he was sent
up from Pierce county in 1891 for burg
larry for five years. He served three
years and was then pardoned. Shortly
| afterward he was sent from Spokane
on a similar charge and served IS
months. His last sentence, which ex-
pired yesterday was nine years, having
been convicted of burglary in King
county.

HE MYSTIC SHRINES ARE COMING

All arrangements for the big eXcur-

been arranged, and it is expected that
a large number of the business men of
that city will be here to participate in
the festivities of Spokane Day at the
Walla Walla fair.
1t is certain that a big bunch of the

night will assist in taking across the
burning sands about 25 of the Masonic
brethren in this city. The most illus
trious potentate of that organization
has issued the following mandate to
the members

katif! Hearken to the wild wall Of
your potentate who has discovered

and dedicated the 18th day of October
for this extraordinary ceremonial ses-
sion.

all who will go on this pilgrimage re-
port to him at once.

$500. Returning the train will leave

Where poverty is unknown.

to make Walla Walla our home for

fun with the boys down there. and to
commemorate the birth of Mariya tool
