THE three great news dis
tributors: Telegraph, Telephone,
tellawoman.

THE Pertle Springs meeting
doesn't seem to have been a howl
ing success. Its purpose-veiled
under the pretense of doing honor
to ex-senator Cockrell-was to
have formulated a plan whereby
Missouri Democrats might get to-
gether. To my mind, the only
"plan" is that which is as old and
tine-tried as the party: adherence
to Democratic principles, regard
less of men and circumstances.
From this truth, in hunt of the
"offises," we strayed like lost
sheep last year; called one an
other thugs and boodlers, set up
man-worship-or, rather, fell down
before the idols placed before us
by a self-seeking few-and were
deservedly licked out of our boots,
locally and nationally. Yes,
brethren, let us get together; but
let it be on principle, not merely
because we mourn our casting out
and have a longing for the lost
flesh-pots. And, when we get to-
gether, let us see to it that any
man who vaunts himself, or is pro-
claimed by his satellites, as bet
ter than his party, he and they be
incontinently kicked out. In that
will be safety and deserving.

Who Pays?

Speaking of the abolition Of re-
taliatory duties by the car the
Omaha Bee Republican, says:
"Thus is the peacemaker blessed
and Russians permitted to secure
better goods for less money than
in any other market on earth"
That sounds very much as if the

The way They'll Play the People

Writing in the Denver News,
Senator Thomas M. Patterson says
that when Congress meets-if no
extra session is called-two issues
will press for consideration and
will be ''played against each
other" The Senator explains:
"The Senate will be complaisant
in the matter Of tariff reform, and
will roll that profound proposition
up the difficult hill of unlimited
debate. But nothing worth while
will be accomplished, because the
speaker Of the house and the
speakers committee on rules will
stand pat The public will get
the benefit Of the tariff debate
nothing more. Radical action by
Germany, Canada or some other

Boss TwEED'S ''what are you
going to do about it?" bears no
comparison to the arrogance and
impudence of the President of the
Equitable Insurance Company.
The latter took $4,000 from the
widows and orphans whose money
was entrusted to his care, and gave
it to the Republican campaign
fund. Questioned about it on the
witness stand, he admitted it and
glorifed in it. He had been so
solicitous for ''the national honor"
so devoted to the cause of Honest
Money, that he gave freely to the
defeat of "the silver craze: not
Of his own money-O no! His

important market might modify
this plan. But the play will be
made as outlined unless the hand
of the party is forced by action
abroad. The other topic-one
close to the Presidents hearts,
the regulation of railway rates by
the enlargement of the powers of
the interstate commerce commits
sion or the creation of a special
court, with power to act, placing
the burden of appeal upon the
railroads. On this proposition the
position of the two houses is re-
versed. But despite this change of
position, the play of the leaders is
the same. The house will save
the face of the party by passing,
with marked enthusiasm, a bill
which embodies the Presidents
views and even the majority of
Democrats will be forced to sup
port it. In the senate this bill will
go to committee, and when it
energies therefrom-very late in
the session-it will be talked to
death or amended, the amend
ments being so constructed as to
assure opposition in the house."
We are told by the Republicans
that the country is enjoying a
period of unexampled prosperity.
1t is pertinent to ask why the in
creasing hostility between labor
and capital and why the extra
ordinary accumulation of wealth
in the hands of a few? The Re-
publican platform of last year
offered no remedy and no relief.
But the object of this editorial is
to call attention to another de-
velopment of modern business,
namely the employment Of SO
many girls in store or factory. Go
into any great city or factory town
at morning and evening and you
will find an army Of girls with din
ner baskets on hand trudging to
and from work. Is the country
prosperous when the girls have to
become bread winners at an early
age in order to piece out the family
income? Surely under any favor
able conditions the head of the
family ought to be able to support
his wife and children. Often, the
work is Of a kind too severe for
women. What is the effect to be
on future generations? Women
may displace men in shop but
man can not take woman's place
in home. Any system that les
sens woman's ability to discharge
the duties of wife and mother must
in the end bring a harvest Of dis
asters. Will the Republicans in
