MAY CHANGE ROUTE
Milwaukee May Run Chicago Trains
Thru Madison.

The story has been revived that the
Milwaukee road will run its fast Min
neap olis-C Chicago trains by, way of
Milwaukee, as at present. Heavier
rails will be laid on the Portage branch
to Madison, and this line will take
much of the passenger traffic, at least,
which now goes over the old line or
by way of Prairie du Chen. It is re-
ported that the repair shops will be
moved from Babcock to Madison and
that the Madison yards will be en-
larged, =. -@ -. .s ..'.

The Hearst Scare,

Suppose Hearst should be nomin-
ated at st. Louis. That he may be Is
supposable. If: he should be what a
split there would be in the democratic
party! The decent democratic press
of the country would repudiate him
and very likely another democratic
ticket would be put in the field. What
else could be expected when such pa
pers as the New York Post score
Hearst as "a faded voluptuary simply
seeking new thrill and the Balti-
more News, also democratic says that
it Is not Hearst's nomination alone
that the democrats have to fear. cit
Is worth while for the democrats to
consider the effect which the mere
circumstance that he has reached the
point Of being seriously considered by
the party Is having upon the party's
status in the country. The party that
takes the Hearst candidacy seriously
writes Itself down an ass. It is hurt
ing itself thereby every day with mill
ions Of plain, old-fashio ned Americans
| without distinction Of party. It is
laying up for itself a stock Of want OF
confidence which 1t, can; i'll afford, to
augment. Any democrat who stops to
think" says the" News, and who has
any influence. will do. well to- speak
out quickly on this Hearst folly -. ;,
The News has measured the situa.
ton correctly. The democratic party
has to fear not only the possible nom
ination of Hearst, but cannot escape
the consequences of his candidacy
The mere fact that such a man a!
Hearst can scare the decent. people O.
his party. half to death. brighten til,
national committee into panic ant
change the. location Of the nationa
convention, is a serious thing for !;
party. aspiring to the confidence AM
support of sensible people And on
fact which disturbs decent democrat
not a little Is that no man of tn
Hearst stripe would ever. attempt t.
secure the republican nomination.

Noah Raby died this week in a New
Jersey poorhouse at the age Of 1872 years
Mr.. Raby said that he always ate and
drank what he wanted and never worried:
Whisky and tobacco were old companions
of Mr.. Raby's, as he began. using them
when a child and quit only when he
couldn't get them. Some people think that
he died in poorhouse because he used
whisky 50 freely; others think. it. was
due to the fact that he didn't worry
enough. There is a difference between
taking thought about the affairs of life
and taking anxious thought about them.
Mr. Raby mot only gdid not take anxious
Thoughts but he did not take any thought.
Hence the poorhouse. But poorhouses are
not SO bad as people have been led to
believe. Mr.. Raby lived very comfort
ably in one for the last forty years Of
his life-and was thankful. The poor
house idea is a good deal worse than the
poorhouse. Some quite wealthy people

We are told combination for their own protection and resist any attempt to squeeze prices as was done last year, but they seem quite content to pay the present level Daily receipts continue moderate and although they are naturally far in of figures of last year, they still run behind the daily move ment of the year before and other normal years. During the morning there was con- siderable buying here. mainly for European account, and prices rose points, but the day and the market closed shade lower than last night The Government pr.Aio- tons of showers for today did not material ize, and its forecast for rains in the Caro- the Gulf States naturally had little effects Should these rains come, however, they will have the effect of further delaying pick ing and movement we expect to find con- summation of private accounts of damage in the usual weekly reports of The Chron- icle.

New York, Aug. 19.-The cotton mar ket opened steady at decline Of l point to an advance of { points. Ca- bles were little below expectations on the new crop positions at the hour of the local opening and the weather map was a little better than looked Tor owing to the fact that 1t showed less precipitation than had been expected. But while the showing in this respect was evidently enough to encourage shorts to stand their ground, It did not promote offerings and the bulls found little difficulty in maintaining prices, which afterward were advanced 70 net gain of about to 8 points when 1t was seen that the forecast called TOT further rains pretty generally over the belt for today. But buying did not pe- come in the least general and in the afternoon profit taking by room longs eased the market off to about or slignt- ly under the opening figures. The close was steady at unchanged prices t6 an advance of 2 points. Sales were estimated not to exceed 50,O00 bales The weeks into sight figures were rather disappointing. showing only 13.344 bales against 5.3I9 year ago and while the new crop Is moving more freely, receipts are still running under bearish expectations. Houston today had 1941 bales and estimates LIDO 10 2.000 bales tomorrow
