Russia had issued strict order that all
cans OF sardines coming from this country
should be opened before delivery. There
were spies in that audience who had
really believed that yarn, and this was the
RESULT
When questioned about the late war
with Japan, he replied: eve all knew
that Russia would lose that war. How
could she help 1t, getting her soldiers as
she does7 Can they fight heartily for a
government they hate and which pays
them only 93 cents every three months, or,
oftener, six months? Although now be-
heve his gracious majesty has raised
their pay to 50 per year.
"As far as the revolution is concerned,
that has not yet begun. All that has been
is only little local quarrel compared to
what is coming before long. The French
revolution Will not be circumstance to it.
And God grant the day may come soon
when Russia will be free from all tyranny
and Poland restored to those who have
fought and suffered for her."
Mr.. Baker is a very interesting person
to meet, and If anyone richly deserves to
live to see his cherished plans carried out,
think he does. / am certainly glad we
are not Russians, and am more than glad
that we are free born American citizens.

IMPRISONMENT FOR
LAW BREAKERS.

Even conservative people have come
to the Democratic contention that fin
ing corporations for breaking the law
of the land has but little effect and
that nothing short of imprisonment of
the officials will compel obedience to
the law. The enforcement of law,
says the New York Evening Post, is
becoming a hobby of executive officers
and district attorneys. The news of
the day is full of specific instances.
Certain officials of the Department of
Justice at Washington are predicting
that there will soon be "wholesale
suits against the Standard Oil Com
pany and the railways for violating
the Elkins Anti-Rebate law. If, as
well-intormed men assert, the Garfield
investigations have uncovered 1900
illegal shipments over a single road,
there may be fines running into the
millions-fnes that will make the
$50, 600 recently exacted by the courts
from the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy, mere trife. The fines may
bo s"lntary, but for our part wa he
lieve that the penalty of imprison-

discretion of the judge would do much
more to inspire among shippers and
common carriers wholesome respect
for the statutes.

WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN, Jr.,
who has been travelling all over the
world with his father, has come home
ahead of the rest of the party, in
order to get ready for school. He is
seventeen, and intends to enter the
naval academy as soon as possible.
When interviewed by New York re-
porters he told an amusing story
about his father being thrown by a
mule, while visiting rice plantation
in the Philippines, and said "Father
never could ride mule, they all
throw him, the Democratic mule as
well as the Others" When asked
what his father thought about his
newly launched boom for a third pre-.
sidential nomination, the boy replied:
81 really can't tell you what father
thinks. " That answer would indicat
that the boy is able to hold his own
with newspaper reporters, for they
certainly got nothing out of him but
an amusing story.

REPUBLICANS
AND MONOPOLY.

The House of Representatives, or
June 9th, adopted resolution look
ing to the establishment by the Gov
ernment of an armor-plate plant. The
eXtortionate prices charged by the
Armor-Plate Trust for its products
have made the ownership and opera
ton Of such plant by the Govern
ment a necessity. To allow private
corporations to hold a monopoly of
things indispensable to the Govern
ment, and thereby to fleece the public
as the Armor Plate trust, the Powder
trust, the Beef trust, the Coal trust,
the Steel trust, and Others have done,
is an objectionable sin and shame. If
the tariff rates on trust products were
reduced or abolished there would be
competition, which would break down
the monopoly that these trusts now
enjoy. But the Republican politi-
clans refuse to revise the tariff and
seem quite willing to vote appropria-
tions for trust products at monopoly
prices.
