Poor old Waterbury! Will it ever recover from the shock given it last Tuesday? Look at these figures. Tn 1900 Mckinley had 3s3 majority. In 1902 Chamberlain had 292. In Octo- Der, 1904, 1t went democratic by 13T, and then Waller, Cochran and Osborne, the backsliders, came ana Roosevelt received 14S5 majority. Think it over, gentlemen, and figure out to your own satisfaction the cause of 1t.

Mayor Collins of Boston, who work
 ed and spoke for the democratic ticket
 early and late, has. the following to
 say of the result: ''T regard the defeat
 of Judge Parker as a national mis-
 take, and, I may say, a national disas-
 ter. 1t hooks US for while to all the
 evil policies that have been fastened
 upon us since we broke our faith with
 mankind in the Philippine misery and
 involved ourselves in net of compli- cations from which, nothing but a four years of democratic victory can extricate us. The verdict ties us down for the present to the post where the trusts and their mother, the tariff, can lash us. We must endure it for a space; but we shall win In the end--- and the end is near. Then, woe to the
 man who takes his brothers bread now or seeks to take away his broth CTS liberty-for the morning light is breaking in the east God bless the people of Massachusetts, who have jus tiled the reputation of the state for
 intelligent self-interest by electing
 William L. Douglas as governor. This means a revolt against the rule of the men who have recently dominated our
 politics, while sacrificing our indus trial life and 1t means, before long, the
 end of their own political careers. The light has broken in the east, and Bos-
 ton is the most brilliant point of all.
 The long-enduring can yet endure till
 the light spreads through the union.'

CASES NOT SIMILAR.
Government Wins Contention and
Land Cases will Proceed.

Portland, Or, Dec. l4.-Arguments
in the contention of the defense in
the land fraud cases that the govern
ment is about to prosecute Puter, Nc
Kinley and other defendants convicted
last week on an indictment practical
ly the same as that which resulted in
last weeks conviction, and that the
prisoners. should the pending case
come on trial, will be placed twice in
jeopardy, contrary to the constitution
of the United States, were heard yes
terday.
Counsel for the defense argued that
the conviction last week was on an in
dictment charging that the government
had been defrauded of public lands
Fin township 49," and that the cases
set for today is based on the charge Of
defrauding the government OF public
lands Sin Oregon
After the arguments on both sides,
Judge Bellinger decided that the cases
were dissimilar, and that there was no
reason why the second trial should not
proceed. The selection of jury to try
the second case is now in progress.
Marie Ware. acquitted last week by
order of the court, will be Il defendant
in the new case.

to very short time ago. when the in
formation was given out that Lee de
Forest, young scientist Of New York,
graduate Of Yale. had perfected
system Of wireless telegraphy which
was expected to overcome most Of the
objections urged against its predeces-
sors. 1t must not be supposed, how
ever, that De Forest had sprung full
panoplied into the arena. For years
he had been working. but he was wise
enough not to take the world into his
confidence until he had practically per-
fected his apparatus. Later on the
army and navy departments of the
United States adopted his system after
exhaustive tests. and then the eyes of
the scientific world were turned upon

UNIONS WILL APPEAL BISMARCK
CAFE CASE.
Anxious to Have an Authoritative
Decision In This important Nat.
teT-CitizenS' Alliance BACKING
the Other Side of the COntrO-
VGrSV.

Seattle, Dec. l4.--To picket or not
to picket is a question that will be
passed up to the Supreme court for
final determination. Judge Hatch,
sitting in the superior court of this
county, has decided that such acts on
the part of unions are unlawful, and,
as he expressed himself, "repugnant to
all sense Of American Justice" As the
questions now stands, so tar as this
county is concerned. this is the law,
and all picketing and boycotting are
taboOed.
The ques ton arose in the suit of
William Jensen, proprietor of the Bis
marck cafe, and was the outcome of
the strike in his place of the mem bers
of the local Cooks and Walters union.
After the men had walked out of the
place they congregated outside, and
each person about to go in was notified
that strike was in progress and was
requested to withhold his patronage
until all differences had been settled.
In retaliation Jensen applied for a re-
straining order prohibiting picketing
of his place of business on the ground
of conspiracy and that his business
was being ruined by such practices.
To this a demurrer was interposed and
when argued was overruled by Judge
Hatch. Since that time the pickets
haven OF been in evidence.
The matter is, however, only held in
allegiance. The unions are anxious
that the question be settled, once and
for all, and to this end an appeal is to
be taken to the supreme court. Ac-
cording to l.. Frank Brown, attorney
for the union, the question will be
squarely on the complaint made by
the plaintiff, Jensen. The allegation
will be first that it does not state facts
sufficient to constitute cause of &C.
ton and, secondly, that picketing, in
itself, is not unlawfoul if only accom-
panied by argument and moral suasion
The papers on appeal are now being
made out and will be filed with the
clerk Of the supreme court in short
time When the court convenes an
effort will be made to have the case
placed on the calendar for January
and it is expected that decision will
be rendered not later than February.
MIR. Brown will represent the unions,
while James b. Howe will appear for
the Citizens Alliance, which is back :
ing Jensen in his present controversy
with the union.
