Needless Go say, tho Democratic. party
OF the United States, which includes
able and successful men In all lines OF
effort, has never put itself In position
OF hostility to any legitimately acquired
wealth.
Today, ns I'm Jackson's day, tho Dom
ocratic party IL n party open to all
American citizens obedient TO the laws
and faithful 10 the constitution. no
matter how poor or no matter how rich
they be.
No Democrat need bo reminded that
the ability OF those men who possess
honestly acquired riches is essential TO
the nations welfare.
Those who attack indIscriminntely or
jealousy tho rights OF the prosperous
manufacturer merchant. inventor,
banker or other legltimately successful
men are not Democrats. They are as
blind and stupid In their wny as those
OF another class who cry down ana at
tack tho rights of the union man who
works with his hands.
The Democratic party, more willingly
than any other, recognizes that tho men
who develop the resources OF the coun-
try, the men who create the wealth. the
men who through executive. organizing
and constructive ability provide oppor-
tunlty for effort, employ labor, distrib.
ute wages and confer benefits upon the
whole community are those entitled TO
large reward, since those who direct
great and legitimate business under
tnkings are essential to the prosperity
OF the nation.

Tho promoters OF cxtortionatc and
speculative trusts do not develop the
resources OF the country, but hinder
and restrict development. They do not
create wealth, but appropriate tho
wealth which others have cnented.
They check prosperity by concentrating
wealth In the hands OF the few out of
the savings OF the many. They limit
production, they limit opportunity. they
limit tho employment Of labor and re-
duce the laborer's wage. while they IN
crease the cost OF living. They confer
no benefits on the community. The
wealth they possess Is stolen money,
and the laws OF the country should
bold them as public criminals.
Managers of get rich quick trusts.
managers Of fraudulent trusts-that
great tribe OF public robbers--arc not
confounded In any Democrats mind
with the honest men whose superior
ability, industry, patience or intellect
have brought them legitimate wealth.
The growth and prosperity Of the
United States have merely begun The
nation needs the abest minds, capable
OF wide planning and accomplishment.
These VIII continue TO be valued and
encouraged by all good citizens. Ev-
cry Democrat viii agree that the labor
er Is worthy Of his hire. whether he
work for day wages or for great
wealth, so long as he works honestly
and legitimately.

RUSSIANS ARE BITTER.
Say American and British Warship

Berlin, April PA correspondent
OF the Frankfurter Zeitung, writing
from Harbin, Manchuria, under date
OF March l6, says:
Great bitterness has been aroused
throughout Manchuria against Amer
leans and British because ii is be
lieved American and British vessels
took part in the bombardments of Port
Arthur under the Japanese flag. This
belief apparently is due to the fact
that the Japanese fleet was larger
than the Russians anticipated and in,
cluded unknown types OF vessels. The
feeling is SO strong that Americans
and British are not safe anywhere in
Manchuria. One Rally an American,
and several others, including David
son, Canadian, have disappeared.
The authorities are looking for them.
1T is reported that an Englishman
was arrested in Port Arthur as spy
and was taken to Mukden and hanged.
