Rebuked in Its Own Party,

Even the most hide-bound Republic
an newspapers occasionally acknowl-
edge the way the protective tariff
| the protected trusts. Now the cleo
! ton approaches and the Republican
platform and President Roosevelt
have both declared that protection
must be adhered to, the organs grind
out the same tunes.
The Chicago Inter Ocean is per.
! haps the most intensely partisan and
truly loyal of all the Republican or
gans, yet it has evidently felt that
the G. o. P. must be stayed in its
hayward course of protecting the
few at the expense of the many or
disaster to the Republican party
would be inevitable. The editorial
referred to shows that the boasting of
President Roosevelt about our pros
perity under Republican policies is
only for a part of the people and that
the majority are getting worse off
through the increased cost of living.
The Democrats have so often proved
these facts that it is an old tale and
thought by many to be exaggerated
for partisan purposes, but here comes
the bitter, biting blasts from this or
gan of protection which in a sane mo-
ment tells the truth when it says:
Yet it may be doubted if one-half
the leads of American families are
in as favorable a position as they
were in 1897. The third party-the
majority who are neither capitalists
nor able to fortify themselves behind
labor union walls-is to-day giving
more proportionately than in 1897,
while getting only the same.
when capitalists combine to raise
prices, reduce expenses, or anticipate
profits it is this third party that pays
the higher prices. stands the reduc-
ton of expenses, and converts the an
ticipated profits into actual ones"
1t is well to ponder on that and
consider whence it came, to thorough
ly understand the admissions of the
enormity of the crime that the Repub-
licans have fastened on those of lin
tied incomes and then further consid-
er another paragraph from the same
deliverance:
THE plain truth is that fully one
half the workers of the United States
the men whose incomes are from
$500 to $4,000 year, the men who
are neither in trusts nor labor unions,
have not been getting their share of
the national prosperity. They are
working for the prosperity of capital
and organized labor, but no one is
working for them. And under this
burden they are becoming exhausted"
That is as the Inter Ocean says, ''the
plain truth" But the men who con-
troll the dominant party still shout,
Let we'll enough aIoneI" Stand
pat!" Hands off"

SIeN OF Retreat.
aiarshaI 0yama Sends In a Report OF
The Battle.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE Japan
csc legation received the following
cablegram from Toxic:
Marshal Oyama sends the follow
ing report of the engagement of We'd
nesday and Thursday:
I'm the direction of Bensihu the
enemy made REPEATED counter attacks
on Wednesday, but were repulsed.
The enemy showed a sign of retreat
towards the evening and our forces
assumed the offensive since daybreak
of Thursday. The flanking move
ment of our strong force of cavalry
on the Kanien largely contributed to
the favorable development of the sit
uation in that quarter.
The central and left columns of
the right army both occupied import
ant eminences, continuing attacks.
Operations of the central army are
progressing favorably, dislodging the
enemy there from several strategical
positions. Other reinforcements are
arriving continually at Yentai.' -

TOO EARLY FOR DECISION.
No Estimate Made Of Results of Sirus
gle Near Mukden.

Toxic, Oct. 15.-It is yet too early
dous struggle which has been waged
for the past three days south of Muk-
den. but all reports reaching Toxic in
dictate that General uropatkin has
been decisively whipped and severely
punished. The Russian commander
was evidently caught whila making
his dispositions with his forces scat
tered and he was beaten before he
could recover.
Much depends upon the ability and
the resolution of the Japanese in ap-
plying and following up the advan-
tages. Kuropatkin may turn upon
favorable ground and succeed in
beating back the Japanese onslaught
but the tide seems against him.
The Japanese yesterday began a
desperate effort to turn the Russian
right, and if this effort should be sue
cessful, it will carry disaster to the
Russian arms.
The struggle around Bentsihu is be
ing followed with intense interest
here. The Russian force there is esti-
mated at five thousand and it's isola-
ton or loss would be severe blow
Estimates of the total force engaged
vary. One telegram from Lao Yang
says that the Russians have two hun
dred thousand men, with 1000 guns
The Japanese force exceeds the num-
Der engaged at the battle of Lao
Yang.

Orioin of Tennis.

Popular among the Basque peasant

Quet
No one knows the origin of trim
Quet; like all basque customs it can
be traced back and back till its his
tory is lost in a remote past. Near.
ly every court in the country bears
the aspect of extreme age. The court
at Bayonne is believed to be 400 years
old and the one at st. Jean de Luz
looks older than the one at Bayonne.
When Louis XIV, who was married in
st. Jean de Luz church, went down to
the little frontier town to meet his.
Spanish bride he found the Basques
of st. Jean de Luz theoretically play
ing their ancient game; and he took
the idea back with him to Paris, and
from it largely modified comes the

SAFEST FOOD
In Any Time of Trouble Is erape.Nu.s.

In Any Time of Trouble Is Grape-Nuts.
Food to rebuild the strength and
that is pre-digested must be selected
when one is convalescent At this
time there is nothing so valuable as
Grape-Nuts, for the reason that this
food is all nourishment and is also all
digestible nourishment. woman who
used it says:
Some time ago l was very i'll with
typhoid fever, so i'll everyone thought
/ would die, even myself 1t left me
so weak l could not properly digest
food of any kind and l also had much
bowel trouble which left me a weak.
helpless wreck.
Il needed nourishment as badly as
anyone could, but none of the tonics
helped me until finally tried Grape
Nuts food morning and evening This
not only supplied food that thought
delicious as could be, but it also made
me perfectly well and strong again
so l can do all my homework, sleep
well. can eat anything without any
trace Of bowel trouble and for that
reason alone Grape-Nuts food is worth
its weight in gold" Name given BY
Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Typhoid fever, like some other dis
eases. attcks the bowels and frequent
ly sets up bleeding and makes them
for months incapable of digesting the
starches and therefore pre-digested
Grape-Nuts is invaluable for the we'll
known reason that in Grape Nuts ali
the starches have been transformed
into grape sugar. This means that the
first stage Of digestion has been me-
chemically accomplished in Grape-Nuts
food at the factories and therefore
anyone. no matter how weak the stom-
ach. can handle it and grow strong, for
all the nourishment is still there.
There's sound reason and 10 dayy'
trial proves.
