stituents, the masses of the common
people and to protect them from the
continued attacks of organized labor
in its efforts to pass laws to rob men
of their right to free labor.
"A frenzied rush after the almighty
dollar is the basis Of the trust move
ment, the object of which is to ex-
tract extra money from the masses,
and divide it among the trust mem
bers. This feature is as much part
of the Labor trust as of any other.
"While Mr.. Gompers announces that
the wheels of industry cannot be
halted nor turned back nor should they
be even if it were possible, it is a
fact that at the time this statement of
the Federation of Labor was published
the unions were actively engaged in
stopping the rebuilding of San Fran
cisco and halting the wheels of in
dustry' in nearly every city of i'm
portance in America, by strikes,
threats. assaults and violence, in
GLIDING the dynamiting of property.
In view of the glaring misstate-
ments and evident desire to mislead
the public, caution is required in con-
sidering any proclamation of the La
Dor Trust. Very few communities
have escaped harm and loss from hav-
ing industries stopped by some arbi-
trary act of the Labor Unions in APP
plying their coercive methods.
Thousands of citizens have suffered
loss of houses, property and occupa-
ton and have been subjected to count.
less assaults, and hundreds of murders
have been committed by members of
this trust in trying to force their
trust mandates upon the common peo-
pie.
''They offer as an excuse that cap
ital trusts have caused suffering by
paying too low wages and therefore
they have right to pursue methods
that produce suffering to citizens not
members of their organization, based
upon the theory that because disso-
lutte man committed murder for some
fancied grievance, any other man
would have right to do likewise.
cit is menace to the people at
large to allow any organization of la
Dor or capital to dominate their
affairs, either political or otherwise,
and when a combined movement is
made by the Labor Trust to secure
such control it must be met by the
citizens of all classes for self-protec-
ton. All admit the right of men to
organize into classes, either with
Capital or Labor and to strive to bet
ter the condition of the members, but
when they mass to secure political
control, danger is app parent.
If the beef, flour, oil, gas and
other capital trusts should mass to
elect their representatives to Congress
or the State Legislatures, the people
would suffer and have suffered in the

past from the few members that have
been so elected. The same is true if
the Labor Trust should succeed in
electing its members to these bodies.
Members elected by any organization
must represent that organization and
the basis of all such movements is to
gather extra money from the common
people and divide the loot among the
trust members. Public men must be
selected by the people, the common
people, and must represent and de-
fend them from the avaricious meas
ures and hidden or open attacks of
selfish organizations of all kinds.
"We have notified the citizens as
sociations in various communities of
the proposal of the Labor Trust to
dominate the coming elections. and we
call upon all citizens, both in and out
of the labor unions, to nominate. and
elect only such men as will faithfully
serve the common people and who
will oppose all trust legislation when
such shall be in the interests of or
CARNATIONS and opposed to the welfare
of the people.
I'VE particularly invite attention
to the attack on the Congressman who
refused to assist the infamous meas
ure of anarchy, the Anti Injunction
bill, bill proposed by the Labor
Unions to tie the hands of the courts
and thus permit property to be de-
stroyed and men assaulted before the
courts can act. Such condition OF
affairs it is thought by the Labor
Trust would allow them to terrorize
the community and permit their
members free license to commit vio-
lence without restraint, but it can be
seen that an absence of restraining
law could as we'll be used by capital
trusts if they should see fit to hire
men to attack members of the Labor
Trust or blow up their homes in like
manner as the labor unions now oper-
ate.
'sThis would he condition of no
law, or anarchy, return to barbar-
ism not favorable to present day
civilization.
Citizens of all classes must act in
defense of their liberties and consti-
tutional rights and actively interest
themselves to elect their own repre-
sentatives. There are $4,000, OOO
common citizens as compared with
about 1000. 600 members of the Labor
Trust. many of whom are unwilling
members and are at heart patriotic
citizens with desire for the uphold
ing of law and order and
who will not vote to place
] further power in the hands of the La
Dor Trust leaders. The interests of
the great majority, the common people
must be conserved and protected by
the election of their own representa-
tives whether they be Democrats o,
Republicans.

The Indiana Republicans.

The Indiana republicans had but one
problem of difficulty, and are to be con-
graduated on the way in which they nave
solved that 1t was an easy matter 10
speak in Endorsement of the party's record
of the Presidents robust and striking
personality, and of course in praise OF MT
Fairbanks and the home delegation IN the
two houses of Congress. Indiana Is apiy
represented here, and exerts conspicuous
influence on national affairs. All of that
was a platform in Itself, sure to produce
unanimous consent.
The matters of contest were the person
slity and the administration of Gov.
Hanly, who has been vigilant in the detec-
ton of wrongdoing on the part OF certain
public officials, and resolute in the execu-
ton of the laws. He has not only uncoV-
cred but punished delinquents, and some
of them have been men of weight in the
state. It required sand both to enter upon
and to carry out such a policy. But he
had II. and has exhibited It, AS one evil
dence, he denied a. petition carrying hfty
thousand names for the pardon OF an ex-
state official who had been found guilty or
malfeasance In office.
An outcry arose. 1t always follows Wig
orous proceedings of that kind The per-
sonal friends of the disgraced of1cials-not
themselves bad men, but influenced by SYM
pathy-accused the governor of playing the
demagogue and appealing to the galleries,
and they insisted that an Endorsement or
his course by the party in convention would
ALLEVIATE many voters and cost the party
the election.
This, after a spirited discussion, has been
met by a plank in the platform which Is
a complete triumph for the governor, ana
which should strengthen rather than weak
en- his party In the campaign. We have
heard enough and to spare of mere denun-
citation OF graft and grafters. What IS
really desired and will be useful Is course
of action Gov. Hanly has inaugurated
this in Indiana, with good results. and
f. Is for the voters to uphold him in the
work. Had the convention turned him
down, not only would his party have been
injured. but, not unlikely, the interests Of
Mr.. Fairbanks been impaired In the ma
ticnal field. AS it is. all three-Gov. Hanly,
the republican party Of Indiana and Mr.
Fairbanks-have been benefited

a potent factor IN his campaign. A power
ful organization, which carried Roosevelt
and Fairbanks through with ease, could
not carry the republican candidate for gov
ernor through. Mr.. Douglas sent bis oppo-
nent to grass.
The situation this year is In several par
ttculars different from the situation of that
year. This Is an off year, and Curtis GUILD,
who Is certain of denomination, is man
of force, with a good record in the gov
ernor's chair II Mr.. Whitney runs against
him the campaign will be waged purely on
the strength of the issue involved. and his
triumph would be in no sense personal.
But therein lies the value of the propos ed
nomination of Mr.. Whitney. The tariff IS

hcans of the state are divided on it. and

on a national interest and value. The con-
gressional races would be more or less at
fected by it. and the battle all along the
line be the more vigorously conducted.
If Massachusetts wants a full and free
up-to-date tariff discussion. free hides and
all, here would appear to be her best chance
to get 1t. Mr.. Whitney knows his subject
and can afford flyer in politics.

sion will not be complete There Will OF

with his mentor. Mr.. Cleveland, and that
feature of the program cannot be changed.

The Restored Franklin Portrait.

The portrait of Benjamin Franklin which
Earl Grey is restoring to the United States
and which will arrive in a few days, de-
picts him, we are told lat an earlier period
OF his life than the conventional pictures
show him" Would it not be a good thing
10 have the general public made familiar
with this picture through the medium OF
the press? The American world of today
knows only the likeness of the venerable
sage. Let US get look at him when ne
was a younger mau-at a time when there
was fire In his eye and fight in his face.
Franklin represents so much wisdom and
solid achievement that the physical aspect
OF the sage goes very well with his reputa-
ton. But he was a wise man even in his
young days and middle days. and had the
reddest of red blood in his veins. If this
picture with so interesting a history is
good, it should show us a countenance both
OF strength and charm with quiet resou-
ton and reserve force in plenty.

Bryant thought that the latter's poetry suf-
fered from association with the popular pic

uleces as THE Death of the Flowers" and
Lines 10 a Water-fo fowl" which were wri.
ten before Bryant reached old age, were
weighted down by the flowing white beard
and the bald pate. For his own part he
wanted to see a copy of those verses reaec-
tive as they are, with the author shown in
middle life, or younger. when. as he as
serted. the poetic expression in the coun-
ton8nce is at its'allghest.
Fl1nklins fate. as already stated. has
been the reverse OF this. He was SO wise
at all times and about so many things. that
in consulting his works. or thinking about
the man, one expects a venerable counte-
nance OF great benignity. And that we have
that we have been raised on. But as he
was always wise. even In the days of his
N}gor and assertion. il would at least be in
teresting to see him before the wrinkles
came and the extreme soberness of the
years had settled on his face. 1t is not diff
cult to imagine how clever letter, II he
could know OF this episode. Franklin would
iudlte to Earl Grey for the latter's thought
ful courtesy, which IS of international note.

Whitney of Massachusetts,.

There is something taking In the sugges-
ton of Henry NJ. Whitney for the demo-
cratic nomination for governor OF Massa-
chusetts this year. He represents his party
on the tariff question. and has the courage
OF his convictions. He talked revision to
his home people last year, and Is talking
free trade to the people OF Maine now
Such man commands attention. He helps
20 make and TO maintain issues. Both fol-
lowers and opponents know where to find
him. He does not conceal himself In a
cloud OF language.
Mr.. Whitney, like Mr. Douglas. Is a man
OF business. and argues his case from the
business viewpoint. Mr.. Douglas, 1t Is
true. won his race two years ago partly

Era of High Expenditure.

We are spending at fearful rate and
much of the expenditure has, for the nonce,
no offset except paper profits. The land Is
full Of nouveaux riches who, as the slang
goes, think they have money to burn" and
their womenfolks are lettering the instruo-
ton The cost of building and living has
thus been raised to level on which it can
not rest for very long. AS the old adage
hath 1t, Put beggar on horseback and
he will ride to the devil" From the present
outlook the record will be broken by the
Jockeys who are now In the saddle After
a while the season of repose, repentance

Weanons and Crime.

The subject of pistol carrying and its
dangers Is being earnestly discussed by the
newspapers OF the country, with a general
trend of opinion toward the conclusion that
something must be done to check the grow
ing evil. Reports of crimes OF violence, in
which pistols figure, are being printed in
such close succession that the mind of
the average reader is daily shocked by the
thought that human life IS rated now more
cheapiy than ever since the era of So
called civilization began. There is abso-
lutely nothing to prevent a jealousy mad
dened man or woman from procuring a
weapon, or a drunken wretch from aTming
himself to wreak vengeance. After the
crime the police occasionally ascertain
where the gun was bought, and that ends
all inquiry.
The other day Representative William g..
Bennett. OF New York city. was quoted by
the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle on
the subject Of concealed weapons. He said !:
II have never seen the time that found
It necessary for the purpose OF protection
to carry even a jackknife- / have never

ouaintance that carried weapon. except
my friends on the police force. win walk
through any street in New York at any
hour of the day or night. and SO long as I
pay attention to my own business ] WILL
walk in safety"
The Democrat and Chronicle approved this
statement and expressed the belief that the
police should periodically search some OF
our immigrants' for weapons. especially
knives Thereupon the Utica Observer en-
tered protest against this method OF treat
ing the evil. on the ground of its impracti-
eabiiity. saying:
