THE OPEN SHOP RULE
 FOR POSTAL SERVICE
No Objection to Union Employees but
 Others Will Be Protected.

Washington, Aug. 36.-The principle of the "open shop will be applied to the postal service. according to a de- cision reached at the department to- day at conference between Postmas- ter Fred l.. Busse of Chicago and Act ing Postmaster General Hitchcock and Second Assistant Postmaster General Shallenberger.
 The determination today was, that so long as postoffice employees conform to the rules and regulations and do not attempt to molest those who do not enter the union there will be no objec- tion to the employees afhliating with labor unions. It was expressly stated, however, that the department would afford the fullest protection to those who for reasons of their own do not see it to join the union.

 DEMOCRATIC POLICIES.
 Our opponents have derived not only partisan pleasure. but also partisan advantage from the division caused in our party by the money question. The unlocked for and unprecedented in crease in production of gold has brought victory to both the advo- eates of gold and the advocates of bi- metallism-the former keeping the gold standard which they wanted and the latter securing the larger volume of money for which they contended. We who favor bimetallism are satisfie ed with our victory if the friends of monometallism are satisfied with theirs.
 The investigations which have been. in progress during the past year have disclosed the business methods of those, who a few years ago. resented any inspection of their schemes and hid their rascality under high sounding phrases. These investigations have also disclosed the source of enormous campaign funds which have been used to debauch elections and corrupt the ballot. Contributions should be indi- vidual, not corporate, and no party can afford to receive contributions even from individuals when the accept- ance of these contributions secretly pledges the party to a course which it cannot openly avow. In othe' words, politics should be honest, and mis- take present conditions in America if they do not receive Improvement n the conduct of campaigns.
 While men may differ as to the rel ative importance of issues, and while the next congress will largely shape the lines upon which the coming pres idential campaign will be fought. think that it is safe to say that at present the paramount issue in the minds of a large majority of the peo- pie is the trust issue. congratulate President Roosevelt upon the steps which he has taken to enforce the anti trust laws, and my qualification is not Iessened by the fact that he has fol- lowed the democratic rather than the republican platform in every advance he has made. Even the enthusiastic
  has enabled the champions of the trust to taunt him with following democratic leadership. He has prob ably gone as far as he could without incurring the hostility of the leaders of his own party.
 DOWN WITH THE TRUSTS.
 There must be no mistaking an issue and no confusion of the line of bat tie. The trust as an open institution will have few open defenders. Our motto must be: "A Private Monopoly is IndefensibIe and IntoleraDie,'' ana our plan of attack must contemplate ! the total and complete overthrow or the industry. A corporation differs | from human being in that it has no natural rights, and as all of it's rights | are derived from the statutes. it can | be limited or restrained according as

sI2.oOO VIII Be Appropriated For He- pairs Upon the Federal Structure Tn This City--Sure of
 PRasnEe.

Washington. June 25.-(Special.)-- In the Omnibus Public Building Bill which was reported to the House to- day, Alabama fared as well as any Of the states, having Democratic repre- sentatives only. Some Of the states with solid Republican delegations did better. of course. and that was natur- ally eXpected.
 For buildings outright the Alabama items are Tuscalsooa, In Colonel Bankhead's district, he being the rank ing Democrat on the committee from which the bill was reported. $l50.OOO Selma. Gin Mir. Bowle's district, $50,- ooo Florence (Judge Richardson's s district) $50. 900, Dothan. (Mr. Clay ton's district) $40, 900.

Gadsden gets $io,00O and Dernopolis, s5,O00 for purchase of sites.
 The omnibus bill will undoubtedly nass hefore the session closes, just what day the leaders do not announce. s-bev want to hold 1t back until all the aonronrIation bills are out of the way.

United States Will Bring
 Action.
LAWYERS ARE LAYING PLANS
Pennsylvania and Standard Oil
 Officials Are the Accused.
The Charge to Be Brought At PhlI- adeiphia Is That of Conspiracy and Conviction win Mean
 Imprisonment.

New York. June 25.-The Times in a special despatch from Philadelphia today says:
 Philadelphia Is to be the scene of the first great prosecutions to be brought by the government against the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Stand ard Oil Company. Arrangements for the prosecutions will be completed this week in New York at confer- ence between Alex Simpson. Jr.. of this city and Charles E. Hughes.
 The chief question under considera- ton IS the advisability of individual prosecutions against A. ! Cassatt iresident of the Pennsylvania. This was plainly indicated today by law. yer who has been intimately associn- ted with the interstate commerce com- mission hearings
 By both the commissioners and the special counsel appointed by the att torney general to follow the testimony and prepare for the prosecution 1t is believed that moro good can be ac- cmplished by centering prosecution up-i on Mir. Cassatt than by scattering eTl- ergy over the prosecution of tho presidents of all tho railroads eon~ cerned, seven of which are directly or indirectly controlled by the PennsyI- vania
 District Attorney Thompson has been advised by the attorney general for the prosecutions. Pennsylvania Railroad lawyers are working night and day making plans for defense.
 The charge to be made by tine gov- ernment will be conspiracy.
 If charge. is proved, iwli carry a penalty of Imprisonment. Mir Sfmp- son. before leaving Philadelphia. said that he has been in constant com munication with President Roosevelt and the attorney general and that the great mass of testimony brought out at the recent hearing Is by no means all that the prosecution will have to depend upon, Since the hearings have been closed he has got q large amount of valuable information from private sources
 IL Is said on the authority of one who has been closely connected with the investigation of the coal carrying roads by the interstate commerce commission that the commission in It's report will advocate government ow- nership of the anthracite fields.

CASTR0'S SORE TOE
VENEZUELA WILL NOT PARTICI-
 PATE IN RHO CONGRESS.
Real Henson. It Ia Believed, Is That Caracas Was Not Selected As the Pan-Amerfcan Meeting
 Place.

New York, June 25.-The Tribune to- day says:
 Advices from Caracas say that vene- zuela will not be represented at the Pan-American congress at Rio Janeiro. The reason given, semi officially. Is that General Cipriano Castro. whose resignation" from the presidency has not been accepted. and who will return to office July 5. fears that the United States seeks to use the congress for the purpose of gaining contro- over the South American republics.
 One of the Castro newspapers says:
 Venezuela will not take part in the Pan-American congress at Rio because there Is no disposition on her part to serve as the instrument of the United States in the latter's sinister designs against the weak republics of South America"
 The present attitude of the venezue- Ian government toward the Pan-Ameri- can congress recalls the action of President Castro, when the congress convened at Mexico City a few years ago It was at the time that Columbia and Venezuela were involved in contro- versies which threatened to precipitate war between tho two countries. Gen. enar Rafael Reyes, now president oi Colombia, waS ons Of the delegates from his country to Mexico City and Venezuela was also represented The congress cabled to President Castro the suggestion that these differences be submitted to arbitration. Castro re- piled: Please don't meddle in our of fairs He also withdrew Venezuela 8 delegates from the congress.
 This action caused Dr, Eduardo Blan- co, minister of foreign affairs. to re- sign. It is said that Venezueia's rea' reason for not taking part at Rio is Castros failure to have gratitied ms desire that the congress meet this year at Caracas"
