will ask you to vote for.

publican politics is in Cook coun- ty, let us merely recite the fact Congressman Lorimer received several thousand more votes in his district than did his opponent and that Congressman Mann beat Parker by a vote of more than two to one. You all know who Lorimer is. In his servitude to the corporations and plutocratic exploiters, Mann is just as bad as Lorimer.
 Thus Republican county offices which are now vacated by Re- publicans who are in the peni- tentiary are filled for the most part by other Republicans who ought to be there.
 One leading citizen of Chicago has charged that S5, 100000 have been stolen from taxpayers of Cook county by office-holders in the last twenty years. And the same men who put these Repub- lican thieves in office still control the Republican machine. And the same men who put the Dem ocratic thieves in office still con- trol the Democratic machinery.
 When Roger Sullivan and Billy Loeffier and the others operate on the Democratic side of the street, Jim Pease, Fred Busse, James Reddick and Roy West are going I'D the other side of the street. These men controlled politics when Cooke was put in office and when Linn was put in office, and they will put the same sort of men in office as are the gentlemen who are now travel ing or have iourneyed toward the penitentiary.
 One-third of the States Attor- ney's time is taken up in prose- cutting defaulting officials, and even when a verdict is secured, the grafters merely say that the l fellow who was tried is no worse than those holding office, but that he has merely been unfor- tunate in getting on the trong side.
 No good can come to the peo- pie out of the so-called Demo- cratic convention which will be held Thursday.
 Roger Sullivan, Billy Loefiler, Alderman Powers, Bath John, " Convict Brennan and men of that kidney will select the so- called Democratic candidates.
 Jim Pease, Healy, Deneen and Roy West will select the Repub- lican candidates, and the candi- dates who may be elected, Re publican or Democratic, will serve Roger Sullivan, Roy West, Billy Loeffler, 'Bathhouse John, " Jim Pease first, themselves sec ond and the people last of all.
 There is no genuine Democra- cy in the so-called Democratic machine in Chicago, and there is no genuine Republicanism in the so-called Republican machine. These machines have been seized and manned and oiled and run by a crowd of political freeboot- CTS who would put to shame in footing the fercest highwayman that ever robbed people.
 How can honest people hope for an honest administration of affairs of Cook county when these men say to the people who they shall or shall not vote for?
 The people did not speak Sat urday. It was the voice of the henchmen of Roger Sullivan, of Jim Pease of Billy Loeffler and men of that sort.
 Bad men in the Republican party have exploited county off, fees for a third of a century. Bad men in the Democratic par ty have exploited city offices.

HEARST LOSES HOPE
Condition of Political Parties in
 Chicago Discouraging.
Thinks Honest People Should
 Have a Party of Their Own.

The decent citizens of Cook county, those who believe in an honest administration of public office, hoped that the results of the primaries held under the new law would be such that honest men could be elected by honest votes.
 The primary law promised, weak as it is, to free the people from the control of political trad CTS 4..l sIaftef5. bot ], failed in that promise.
 An analysis of the vote deliv- cred by both of so-called parties shows that franchise grabbers, ballot-box suffers, political huck- sters, indicted and convicted criminals, both Republican and Democratic. still control the ma- chinery of the election and are able even under the new law to bring about the results they de- sire. The relief from the politi- cal buccaneers and from the jan izaries that have traded in the offices of Cook county and have robbed the people for twenty years is not in sight through either of the so-called party ma chimes. An examination of the vote at Saturdays primaries shows this.
 The machinery of the so-called Democratic party is in the hands of Roger Sullivan, 'Bathhouse John Coughiin, Billy Loeffieo, Alderman Power, Convict Bren- nan and men of that stripe. lr the First Ward; for instance, you can see the hand of two spot less' Aldermen in the tremend- ous vote that was given Gibbons.
 In the Fourteenth ward Roger Sullivan's heelers rolled up g phenominal maj jority for Gibbons.
The Nevada County picayune., 1906-08-24

In the Eighteenth Ward Alder Bremen, convict number 37O, saw to 1t that more than a ma jority of all the votes cast went for his favorite candidate.
 The result of the primary cleo tion Saturday was brought about by Roger Sullivan of the Ogden Gas Company, by "Bathhouse John" Coughlin, "Hinky Dink, !" by coal contractor Connery by ex-convict Brennan and by AL derman Powers, in whose saloon the tunnel steal began, and by Billy Leoffler, who was saved from conviction in the tunnel steal by the graces of Judge Chetlain
 The influences of these men was sufficient to control the yer dict of those who cast their votes. The vote cast was a small part of the Democratic vote be- cause guHuiAU Democrats lad n0 faith in the crew that was domi- hating the party machinery.
 The people did not speak.
 It was a verdict made up by stutfing ballot boxer. by voting dead men. by trading and brib- cry, and the verdict was engin- eered by franchise grabbers, po- ! litical crooks and men who have had their arms in the public treasury up to their elbows for the last twenty-five years. 1 Thus you see that the grafter the franchise grabber and politi- cal crook masquerading as Dem ocrats are as much a power to- day in Chicago as they ever were.
 The Republican party was con, trolled by influences equally as vicious.
 You know that Linn is now 1T jail for robbing Cook county You know that Cooke is under penitentiary sentence for robbing Cook county. You know that one of the clerks of Reddick is charged with a large shortage to Cook county. You know there was dispute as to the accounts of Vail.

vation contributes his pro rata that these men who do not toll shall clothe themselves in fine linen, gorge themselves in Aashy restaurants, build fine houses and lord 1t over the people.
 The burden of the grafter is on the rich and the poor alike.
 The working man who earns S2O a week pays half of it to his landlord and to his grocery-keep- CT. That landlord and that gro- cery-keeper and working man are so taxed that one-fourth of this money goes to the county and to the city offices, and there one-half of it is misappropriated.
 No city contract is made with out estimate. for the grafter.
 No measure is put through without setting aside a sum for these men who take their toll both from the honest and dis honest vacations that men follow They exploit gambling is profta- ble. They exploit franchise grabbing if franchise grabbing is profitable.
 They exploit anything that promises a return in dollars and cents.
 This primary law promised good things. It failed. Gothrough the tabulated list of election re- ! turns and you will find that bad candidates got their votes i'll the wards controlled by bad men, and the men who ate nominated Thursday in the county conVen- tion must make their peace with l these men and must make their trades with them before they are permitted to seek office.
 And still you are told that un- less you are tied to the wheels of Roger Sullivan's chariot or to Jim Pease's chariot, you are not a good party man.
 Abraham Lincoln living today in Chicago could not consistently belong to the Republican party of Cook county; Grant would have nothing of it.
 Andrew Jackson and Thomas Jefferson, were they living here, would pass on the other side of the street if they saw coming in their direction Roger Sullivan, Billy Loetfler, Alderman Powers, the 'Bathhouse, " and other so- called Democratic leaders.
 What are you going to do about it? How are you honest men who are not now organized going to put honest men in office?
 We believe the time is here for honest men to get together, ire spective of the so-called party affiliations. We believe the time lis here for the real Democrats and the real Republicans to take charge of affairs, and that time is all over the United States.
 The people of New York have already revolted against Odell, Platt, Depew, Ryan, Belmont and the life insurance thieves. and have formed an independence League, which threatens to sweep all of this sort out of of fee and out of party control. A similar league has been formed in Chicago and is now spreading over the state of Illinois.
 The intent of that league is to stir up, organize and express at the polls the determination of the people no longer to be delivered for cash, as blind party voters by Republican or Democratic bosses.
 The league is not organized to change the American system of government, but to restore the American system of government.
 It is organized to insure safety of property, which has been

ton where the mineral is of low grade.
This inclination on the part of the

it is generally due to their ignorance as

LONDON, June 16.-No Trustworthy report
Of the attack on British officers In a village
near Tantah, Egypt. has been received.
The explanation suggested Ia that the
natives thought that the Englishmen had
SGT fire to a neighboring village which was
burning at the time. The affair has created
q feeling Of great uneasiness.
Though little public reference has been
made to the fact, It is well known that there
Ia a feeling Of great unrest among the
natives in Egypt. When the Tabah-Akabah
dispute between Great Britain and the
Sultan Of Turkey was acute reference was
made in these dispatches to the activity Of
Turkish propa gandists. Since the begin
ming Of the year they have met with no
small measure Of success, and though the
Sultan, as usual, was forced TO climb down
he has not altogether failed in his attack
on British prestige in Egypt.
The Suns latest advioes from Egypt
say that the uniformed natives believe
that the Sultan emerged victorious from
the dispute, and they have high hopes that
before long they will be freed Of all foreign
control. In the country villa es and dis
tricts the altered attitude Of the natives
is very noticeable. Obsequious servility
has given place to a %sullen, unfriendly de-
meanor Even servants have been known
to say to their masters;

Massenet's Miracle Opera Produced at

LONDON, June /l6.-Massenet's mira Gle
opera lie Jongleur de Notre Dame" was
produced for the first time at Covent Gar
den last night. The music is praised for it's
freshness and suitability to the naive story
written by Morris Lenau. 1t is the story OF
Jean, a juggler, who becomes a monk to get
absolution for his offences and is sneered at
by his brother monks for his ignorance.
Jean, who is distressed as to how he shall
pay honor to the Virgin, finally becomes
convinced that he may do it with the only
gifts he Possesses. When alone in the
chapel he sings before her shrine the best
songs in his repertoire, which are folk songs
of the fourteenth century. In the end he
dances a frantic bourree.
The monks, who nave been disturbed by
the noise, enter and denounce the juggler
for his sacrilege, but the statue of the Virgin
CLOVIS with a strange light and the voices Of
angels are heard. The hands Of the statue
move in the act OF blessing the PROSTATE
Jean. He does not see the miracle, but
dies happy, knowing that his worship has
been received, and an aureole shine forth
above his head.
Laftte, the new tenor from Brussels,
sang the part Of Jean, and gave a fine in
depreciation Of the character. 1t was for
this opera that a donkey was needed for the
juggler, but the Covent Garden manage
ment, after many efforts, failed to secure
one strong enough to bear h tenor's great
veipht.

PERSECUTION OF JEWS GROWS.
Outrages In and Near Bielostok Increase

Special Gable Despatch 10 THE SUN.
ST. PErERsBrRo, Jun Ie.-NeNs from
Bielostok this morning indicated that the
anti-Jewish riots there, so far from dimin-
ishing in violence, had rather become
worse. The mob has been swelled by thou
sands Of peasants and is plundering and
burning the deserted dwellings Of Jews.
All the Jewish shops are ruined.
Most Of the Jews have fled from the city
to escape the fury Of the mob, and 5000 Of
them were last night camped in the forest,
surrounded by soldiers.
A later despatch from Bielostok says
that the suburb OF Roudary has been to-
tally burned. The sacking Of Jewish
houses and shops continued till late last
night. Fight streets have been totally
devastated. There was much fighting in
the streets.
Troops from Warsaw and Grodno have
arrived, but the massacre Is spreading.
Jews are being beaten and their shops
plIndered in n%eighboring towns.
BERLIN, June 1o.-"We have reason to
believe that the massacre OF Jews at Bielo-
stok is a rehearsal for a wholesale repetition
Of the atrocities at Odessa, which convuleed
the civilized world last October, y said DR..
Paul Nathan, president Of the Central Jewish
Relief League Of Germany, to-day. The
league had received kilograms sent from
Bielostok at 5 O'Clock this morning declaring
that the carnival Of murder, robbery and
rapine was still in full blast despite the
Russian Governments usual assurances that
prompt measures had been taken for sup
pressing disorder.
Our information continued DR.. Nathan,
indicates that the Bielostok massacre is the
same sort Of officially inspired count revo-
lutionary outbreak as was hat at Odessa.
We have learned positively that the Govern
ment's allegation that the trouble began in
consequence Of bombs being thrown at a
Christian religious procession by Jews Is a
ridiculous falcehood. Bielostok Is still in the
hands OF thugs and drunken Cossacks, who
have surrounded the town with the appar-
ent determination that nc Jew h be
allowed to escape alive or unrobbed.
The military have deserted the railway
station and every passing train is held
up and the passengers plundered. Panic
reigns in the ~neighboring villages, where
the fear is that they will be the next OBJ
ject of attack. Numerous German firms
and individuals are among the sufferers at
Bielostok, and the suggestion has been
made that the Intervention Of the Kaiser's
Government ought to be invoked"

ST. PETERSBURG, June 16.-The policy OF
the Constitutional Democratic party in the
Duma to disre gard the Government de-
fance Of the Dumas authority is now en-
dangered by the impatience of the Labor
Peasant combination, which numbers over
$50. The Constitutional Democrats desire
more time to strengthen the national plat
form. Therefore they have passed to tho
order of the day after the refusal OF the
Government to satisfy their demands that
II cease political executions.
The Laborites insist that the Govern
ment's replies be referred to a committee
OF the House which ia empowered to enter
into an open struggle with the Ministers
Thirty Of the radical combination ave gone
to the disturbed provinces to report to the
party in the Duma the method employed
by the Government in the enforcement OF
the law.
Owing to the complete anita gonism now
existing between the Duma and the Gov
eminent the latter has ceased to frame
legislative projects for presentation to
Parliament. This has converted the Duma
practically into a continuous public meet
ing with the entire nation for an audience.
The debate on the Constitutional Demo
Gratis agrarian bill produces only a general
onslaught on the Governments past mis-
deeds and its present confessed incapacity
to deal with the land crisis. The business
world is extremely pessimistic. Repre-
sentatives Of foreign capital here have been
instructed to cease considering any pro-
posals for tho present and all securities
have fallen throughout the week. Russian

the worst price during the war with Japan.

members Of the Duma is arranged for to-
morrow, when a labor demonstration will

way lines to redouble their vigilance against
