stock of the American Savings Bank
and Trust Company, which suspended

tically was subscribed before the ad-

q - If YOU ARE A.
DEMOCRAT "A
OR If you ARE NOT You WILL
WANT TO READ
BRYAN'S. ,COMMONER

On March 18th the Commoner an
nounced the Primary Pledge organi-
zation plan. This plan provides for
democvrats to sign a pledge, binding
themselves to attend all primaries Of
their party between now and the ma
tional campaign in 1908. 1t is a prac-
teal method for the organization Of
the party by the rank and file, in or
der that it may prove true to its name
and be the efficient servant Of the
people in the establishment of re-
form. A little investigation viii con-
vince you that The Commoner has hit
upon feasible and effective method
Of persuading democrats to partici-
pase in the councils Of their party.
These pledges are pouring into The
Commoner Office by the thousands,
where they are carefully fled by state,
county, and voting precinct.

San Francisco. co.-According to latest
reports received here from the Orient
the boycott in China has become so
serious that a number of American
houses have closed their doors until
he conditions change. Among those
who arrived here from the Orient on
the Steamer Coptic was R. Vansant,
who'represented local firm at Shang-
hal.
Mr. Vansant, in speaking of the boy
cott, said:
The situation in China is very Sc
rious and there is absolutely nothing
IN the stories that the feeling against
American goods has lessened.
" It has now extended to seventeen
provinces, and in Canton and Han
kow the situation. is just as bad as
in Shanghai. The Americans are not
doing 20 per cent Of the business they
formerly did and at Hong Kong the
Chinese were purchasing Australian
-four at much higher price than that
quoted by the Americans.
The Chinese state that they win
not trade with the Americans until
there is a modification of the exclu-
sion laws, but this, I told them, was
hardly probable. In the event of the
United States failing to pass a law
less stringent than the present one
the Chinese will adopt more drastic
measures. The boycott has develop
ed into an anti-foreign feeling and
The British and German business con-
Germs in the Orient are suffering the
loss of considerable trade"

Closes It's Doors.

New York.-Havana's handsomest
gambling establishment has closed its
doors and negotiations for the pur-
chase of the Miramar Hotel, to trans
form Havana into a Monte Carlo, have
come to a sudden end. Burbridge,
head of the Cuban Club, has been
cited to appear before criminal
court, and several men who. are per-
sumably working for him have dis
appeared. The police are looking for
them and are guarding the doors of
the building on the Gale Virtudes, at
the corner Of the Prado, where the
club until now has been in operation.
Burbridge created something of a
sensation here last year by ope j
the club. He said uct-;~e ,iil'

The Virginia Anti-Agent Bill.

Richmond, Va--The Virginia Bill
to which Andrew Hamilton made refer
ence in his statement is not known
here as having special reference to in
suranee. It is a fact, however, that
a bill was introduced which made it
a misdemeanor for an agent of any
kind to go into an office and undertake
to sell to any person when there was
posted notice to the effect that
agents were not allowed to enter dur
ng business hours. The measure did
not become law
Tt is believed that such is the bill
hat Mr.. Hamilton refers to, and il
is thought that book and insurance
agents were intended to be reached.

st. PetSrsburg.-Gen. Doubassofl
has telegraphed to the government
from Moscow that large meeting of
revo1utionists and strikers at the Pro-
karoff cotton mill outside of the city
was surrounded by troops of all arms.
The artillery opened terrific bom-
bardment and made a large rent in
the walls, which suddenly crumbled
and the building came down in a heap.
Hundreds, if not thousand, persons
We're buried in the ruins. Gen. Dou-
bassoff regarded the Prokaroff mills
as the stronghold of the revolutionists
and'1he reports that Moscow will be
entirely cleared of them in three days.
The governor general also reports
chat he prevented several thousand
"loyalists,' who assembled in the
Sakolniki district in the outskirts OF
Moscow from marching into the city
for the purpose of attacking the strik-
ers, revolutionists and Jews.
The police force of Moscow has

AUTO STUCK IN MUD

SAN JUAN, P. R., Nov. 24.-President
Roosevelt, who sailed from Ponce for
Hampton Roads on the flagship Lou
isiana at 4:30 Friday afternoon.
greatly impressed the inhabitants OF
this island with his personality, and
notably favorable results may follow.
The Presidents trip Thursday from
San Juan to Ponce by way of Arecibo
was one continued ovation in spite of
the announcement of the change Of his
plans. necessitating his return to Ponce
in order 70 embark on the Louisiana.
All the towns through which the Pres
ident passed were gayly decorated and
crowded with people.
He made speeches at Arecibo, Utuado
and Adjuntas. Near Bayamon Norton,
the rough rider who was with Roose-
welt at San Juan Hill. met the President
and presented him with q box of grape
fruit from the Norton farm.
While crossing the river from Are
cibo TO Utuado the Presidents auto
mobile stuck in the mud, but was
pulled out by team of oxen. While
this work was in progress one of the
mounted members Of the Presidential
escort was thrown from his horse into
the river, falling near the Presidents s
automobile. The President was upon the
point Of jumping to the mans assist
ance when the latter was RULED out OF
the water.
Before leaving Utuado the President
was informed that his chauffeur, an
American named Hodges. had not been
able TO eat his lunch on account Of
having TO repair the automobile, where
upon the President insisted that the
party wait at Utuado until the chauf-
feur had refreshed himself

MORMON LEADER IS
FINED LIGHTLY
President Smith Confesses
Cohabitation Charge, but
the Penalty Is Only $500
MANIPULATED

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov 24.-Joseph
F. Smith, president of the Mormon
church, appeared Friday in the State
District Court before Judge Ritchie,
pleaded guilty to a charge of unlawful
cohabitation AND a fine of $500 was
imposed.
Earlier in the day counsel for Presi-
dent Smith secured a transfer of the
case from the criminal division of the
court, where Judge Armstrong presid-
ed. to Judge Ritchie's division. After
the noon recess. when the courtroom
was practically deserted, President
Smith went before Judge Ritchie, en-
tered his plea and the fine was i'm
posed.
President Smith made a lengthy
statement to the court explaining the
attitude Of the authorities Of the Nor
mon church in relation to polygamy
and polygamous cohabitation.
The charge under which the Mormon
prophet was arrested and fined was
made by Charles Mostyn Owen. who
has been active in a crusade against
the Mormon authorities. The charge
was based on the recent birth of Pres
ident Smiths forty third child, born to
his fifth wife.

ID. H. BIBB JR. PASSES A
BAD CHECK IN CHICAGO
Son Of the Prominent Local Lumber
Man Is at His Old Tricks
Once Again

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-D. H. Bibb. 10
years old, who says that he is con-
nected with prominent San Francisco
family, was placed on trial Friday
by Judge Kavanaugh, charged with
passing forged check for $50 upon a
south side restaurant man
Bibb denied any intentional wrong
doing. On the stand he said that the
check had been given him in payment
for q gambling debt and that he had
supposed 1t bona fide until arrested.
A number of prominent Western
business men are said to have asked
the States Attorney to be lenient with
the boy, but as he was tried and con-
victed on similar charge some time
ago the attorney asked that he be sent
to the reform school
