a working mailer, who becomes an
agitator on behalf of his much op-
pressed class. In consequence of a
speech denouncing an unscrupulous
employer he is prosecuted on charge
Of criminal libel; but, thanks to faith

emerges triumphantly.
No fault can be found in this case
with the way in which the villain is
cross examined to pieces. The diff
Guilty is that no such prosecution could
have been instituted at ALL You may
slander a man by defamatory speech,
but to libel him you must write, print
or otherwise permanently record your
defamation of him, and, though SIAN
der and libel alike may expose you to
an action for damages, it is libel alone
that can bring you within the grasp of
the criminal law.
It is difficult to uphold this distinc-
ton. A libel is regarded as a public
crime as we'll as a private wrong be-
cause it tends to pre- * L breach OF
the peace, but one would think as
much might be said Of SANDER. Still
the distinction exists, and the ag-

In connection with the government exhibit at the Jamestown exposition there will be exhibits of various kinds of internal combustion engines using denaturized alcohol for fuel. Farm CTS will learn how to save labor in a thousand different ways. They will be shown how they can utilize ma chinery for saving wood, chopping stock feed, pumping water and many other things. And the farmers wife can employ machinery for doing her churning, washing, operating her sewing machine and in many other ways to save labor. Special machin- cry is already being made for utiliz- ing this new and cheap fuel and so economical will be this fuel alcohol that every farmer can make h,s own supply from the waste products of his farm. Uncle Sam viii also show the public how to use denatnr!zed al- cohol as fuel for heating and cook ing purposes at home and for light ing the houses and country roads. He will teach the farmers how they may save time and expense by mak- ing their fuel and lights at SO small cost that their living expenses will be reduced to a minimum and their convenienees so greatly increased that they will find real luxury in liv- ing on a farm.

The political outlook throughout the country is just now troubling the politicians at Washington. The cleo ton in Oregon did not turn out so as to give any definite lead as to what might be expected in other states. It was announced that a majority for the republican ticket would be taken by the president as an endorsement of all he had done. while a different result would be looked upon as a vote of lack of confidence. AL this was said before the election, but since the result was divided one, the democrats electing the governor and the republicans the other off, cers. no more has been said about an endorsement. The republicans are very much troubled over the situa- tion in Iowa and Pennsylvania, and the democrats are concerned about matters in Tennessee. The conserva- tive republican leaders frankly admit that in Pennsylvania the chances are in favor of the democrats capturing from eight to twelve congressional districts and at least two in Iowa. These same conservative republicans place much of the blame for this sit- uation on the president.

The capture of the child was accomplished with amazing boldness. the girl being carried off under the eyes of both her foster father and mother. Haas started in pursuit on horseback, but the automobile was driven at speed of forty miles an hour and soon disappeared in cloud of dust

FRIDAY. JUNE 2s, 1906.

Indications point to considerable changes in the fall elections, and un- certainty here interferes with future calculations. says Banker Clews. Moreover, there is good deal of in- ertia in high financial circles arising from various causes. A number of our prominent inanciers are abroad enjoying themselves, not few of them being disposed to postpone new operations until the general outlook becomes more settled. The fever for public investigation, it need hardly be said, has also a disturbing effect. The feature of the market, there fore. continues mixed. At present no settled tendencies are shown in either direction, and We would ad- wise caution in speculative operations until the outlook becomes more de- cided.

 MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 29.-Wil- liam J. Bryan was strongly indorsed as the standard bearer of the Demo cratic party in the presidential cam paign of 1908 by the Democratic state convention, which has adjourned sine die.
 There were only two occasions in which Bryan's name was mentioned during the day. and that was when the resolutions were read as a whole and again when the blanks were adopted separately. In both instances his name was cheered repeatedly, and the words Bryan. Bryan, Bryan; three cheers for Bryan," brought forth tumult of ap- plause, which continued some time be- fore the chairman could restore order.
 The plank of the platform that came in for the most debate was that bear ing on municipal ownership. National Committeeman Timothy E. Ryan fought hard against the adoption of the plank, but he had few supporters.

LoNeWoRrHs PRESENTED.
Daughter of President and Her Hus-
 band HonOred by King Edward.

LONDON, June 29.-King Edwards court drawing room was made notable by the presentation of Mir. and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth. The royal circle was numerous, and the procession of the king, queen and officers of state was exceptionally brilliant. The kings breast glittered with orders, and the queen wore beautiful jewels.
 President Roosevelt's daughter ex- cited general attention She wore her wedding gown, with diamond ribbon at her throat. and her hair was simply dressed. She was specially honored by King Edward and Queen Alexan- dra and the royal circle.
 Mrs. Longworth was presented form ally to the queen by Mrs. Reid. As she was presented the king. contrary to custom. honored her by speaking a few words. Smilingly Queen Alexan- dra graciously followed the kings ex- ample and spoke to the presidents daughter. while the procession of splen- didly gowned and nervous debutantes, clasping bouquet in one hand and a long, cumhrous court train in the other, was held up until their majesties chat ted with the bride of the American con- gressman.
 Mrs. Longworth. radiant and thor oughly self possessed. made her cour- tesy gracefully to their majesties, drop ping neither her bouquet nor train. Undoubtedly she had thoroughly re- hearsed the courtesy. for she bent the knee and bowed her head as accurate ly as any veteran duchess.
 His bride was calmer than Congress man Longworth. who appeared rather nervous in his first court costume of braided coat, satin knee brooches, silk stockings and buckled shoes.

And what will be the end of all these government examinations of men high in the affairs of the coun- try? Nobody expects to see the president of a railroad go to jail. much as some of them doubtless de- serve it. Nobody expects to see John D. Rockefeller or MT Arehbold or H. H. Rodgers put on stripes. That is not the thing to expect. But there will be a clearing of the moral at- mosphere. Publicity, call it muck rakins or call it what you will, has done and is doing more than fines and jail sentences could hope to do.

WASHINGTON, June 29.-President Roosevelt desires every one to know that he wants quiet summer at Oys- ter Bay so as to get the rest he needs. Notwithstanding his enormous staying qualities he is beginning to show the effects of the great strain under which he has labored since congress met. Those who come in contact with him frequently notice that he manifests nervousness, which is new to him.
