Parker and the TRUSTS.

Trust magnates having furnished
the funds to carry on Parker's cam
paign, will now be relegated to the
rear. However, Cord Meyer of the
sugar trust and other representatives
OF grasping corporations have such a
hold on the Democratic candidate that
they will continue to control him.
Their relegatien to the rear is merely
a blind to deceive the people. When
Parker visited New York he told his
managers he did not wish his remarks
on the trusts "queered," and that dur
ing the remainder of the campaign the
magnates who have been parading and
jubilating over his nomination should
be less open in their demonstra tons
of joy. He further said he could not
get close to the people as long as the
trust magnates openly shouted for
him. What the judge meant was that
his wealthy sponsors should keep
dark" until after election, when they
could come to the front again.

Some of the landmarks of historic
legislation created during President
Roosevelt's administration are: 81 The
law for the civil government Of the
Philippines; (2) corporate legislation,
chief of which is that creating the
department of commerce aud labor,
with broad powers, which, in the ma
ture of things, must steadily grow;
81 Cuban reciprocity comforting ma
terial benefits on both Cuba and the
United States; IA the treaty and laws
that make the Panama canal GER
tainty; 90 the law for the irrigation
OF the arid lands of the great west.
Against these accomplished results
during one administration Of the party
that does things the Democratic party
has nothing to offer but empty words
and high-sounding promises.

The saving-Bank Test.

In 1896, when Mckinley was first
elected, there were eSS savings banks;
now there are 1,07S, an increase of 10
per cent. In 1896 the number of de-
positors in savings banks was $685.
494 and the total deposits 81, 9O7 ,OOO,-
600; in 1903 the number Of depositors
had increased to 1905 ,2S8, and the de
posts to 50 ,935, 600, 900, an increase in
round numbers of STOPS, 100000. AS
deposits in savings banks are mainly
by wage-earners and persons of mod
crate means, the great increase in the
number of depositors and the aggre-
gate deposits indicates general prosper
ity-the result Of Republican policies
and administration.

The fundamental rule of action in
this government has been the prin-
ciple of majorities. The primary
election bill abrogates this rule.
This should be formidable objec-
ton to its adoption. No man wants
to see the majority rule abandoned.
The primary election law will oper-
ate on large scale as does the eau
Gus law in its restricted area. Ten
per cent of the votes cast at a pri-
mary election may name the candi-
date, and such candidate will likely
be seriously Objectionable to fifty
per cent of the voters. In the ward
caucus of nearby city last spring
there were 20 votes cast. A man
was named for an important city Of
fee by four votes. This man was not
qualified for the office and Is of the
20 voters would not vote for him
but as they could not readily COM
bine on one other man four votes
named the candidate. The primary
election law will operate just this
way. Florida and Oregon each
have primary election law but in
each Of these majority vote only
can nominate. If no candidate has
a majority over all others for an Of
flee a new election must be held, the
second election taking cognizance
of two who at the previous election
had the highest number of votes.

The Flag Should Net Come Down.

Among the reasons given by John
8. George, a lifelong, Democrat and
a nephew of the late Governor r. p.
Flower, Of New York, for declaring
his intention to vote for President
Roosevelt, is this:
The Democratic leaders are making
speeches against so-called militarism
and Imperialism, and they are demand
ing that the Philippine Islands be given
UP and abandoned, SO far as the guar
dianship Of the United States is con-
cerned / do not believe that the Amer
lean flag should ever come down from
any pole that it is once raised upon.

In 1900 the vote for president in
South Carolina was, Democratic.
Al, 236; Republican, 3,579. But these
figures give us but a slight hint O..
the number of voters in that state,
or the relative strength of the parties.

zens over FL years Of age in that
state and more of these are Repub-
lican than Democratic. The Demo-
Gratis dominate by force. The Re-
publicans do not vote.

Candidate and Platform.

This years presidential election will
not be won by any formal platform.
The Republican platform Is good, but
the Republican candidate is better.
The truth is Mr.. Roosevelt Is the real
platform for both parties. He is the
main point of attack by the Demo
Gratis and the main source of strength
for the Republicans. He would be
elected without any platform except
the record Of the party and his own.

Business conditions in New York are
far from being satisfactory and the de-
preston seems to be Of a general n
ture. A great part Of the trouble is.
undoubtedly attributable to the fact that
this is what is called '.presidel tial ,
year. But, there are otser causes,
which are responsible for the present
decline in business. The country has
enjoyed an unusual long period of pros
peritv, unparalleled in its history.
Everything went booming, the values
gradually reached high water mark and
as usual in this country, speculation was
wildly rampant. regardless of the i'm
nau,able laws determining and govern
ing actual values. Fortunes we're made
blythe turn of the hand and others lost
with the same case, money was spent
liberallv and the factories worked over
time to produce enough to satisfy the
increasing demsnds. Such conditions,
with excesses which invariably accom-
pany them cannot last indefinitely, how
ever. A reaction must set in sooner or
later, and 1t has set in. The inflated
values in the stock market have COL
lapsed the activity IN the centers of
speculation has practically ceased.
Stock brokers are enjoying involuntary
holidays and find it necessary to re-
trench. During the last two weeks
more than 2.5OO clerks have been dis
missed by Wall street brokers and the
clerks who are still on the various pay
rolls have little or nothing to do. But,
that is not all. The demand i0 nearly
every branch of business has decreased
to serious extent. Many factories,
which have BEEN working day and
nigh, aud had been paying record
wages. TO be able to keep up with the
demand, are working half time at re-
duced wages. or are closing down alto
pether. Business transactions in every
branch have shrunk 80 much, that the
railroads are xrestlv affected. Those
who are in position to feel the
pulse OF the cOmmerc1al ana lnouStTla'
condition of this country, do not besl'
tate to predict that the coming winter
will not be prosperous, but tbey are
confident, that the depression will moi
last as long nor be as serious as that
which preceded the election of Presi'
dent Mckinley. They base their
opinion upon the fact that the econom''
cal conditions in this conditions in thif
country have become more substantial
and solid during the long period o
prosperity than they ever were before
and the reserve force is great enough to
carry the country over this period Of
depression,
