The republican theory that the higher
the taxes the more prosperity. proves
that President Roosevelt is thorough
going republican for he heartily endors-
es the spending mania and extravaganza
of his party, For instance. how readily
he gave way to the Wadsworth-Cannon
plan Of making the people pay for the
meat Inspection, instead Of the packers
being made to pay. Can you remember
any recommendation of Mr.. Roosevelt
for economy in expenditures:

ORCHARD CONFESSES|
Says 'Inner Circle" of Federation of Miners Plotted Murder of
 Governor Steunenberg.

San Francisco, March 2.--It deyel- oped here last night that San Fran cisco mystery of two years ago has been touched upon in the confession made by Harry Orchard, now inpris- oned at Boise, Idaho, on the charge of having murdered former Governor Steunenberg. According to Orchards confession, as received here, the "in- ner circle' of the Western Federation of Miners plotted the assassination of every prominent man connected with the employers side of the famous Occur d'Alene strike and one of the attempts to commit murder took place ill this city. In 1904 Frederick W. Bradley, superintendent of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mines, was living. here. On the morning of November IT Bradley opened his front door to step into the street on the way to his office. As he was opening the aoor he ignited match to light cigar. Instantly a terrific explosion followed. Bradley was hurled into the street, badly bruised and burned. He was so se- yerely hurt that for time 1t was feared he would die. A gas grate had been leaking in his fiat and the only plausible theory advanced at the time was that the explosion was due to the accumulation of gas which became ig- nited by the lighted match Orchard. however. in his confession says that
 Bradley was the victim of bomb out l rage,

D0LAN IS INACTIVE
He is Not Taking Any Part in the Nominating of Officers
 Ordered by Mitchell.

Pittsburg, Pa, March 2.-Nomina- tions for officers of District No 5, United Mine Workers, closed last night, and the names of all candidates to be voted for at the special election on March 24 are now in the hands of Secretary Dodds.
 Patrick Dolan's name appears among those suggested for the presi- dency, but he refuses to take any part in the election and declares he will continue at the head of the organfza- tion, be the result what it may. It Is not likely that anything further will be done until after the present cleo tion, when the miners will ask the courts to remove the present officers.
 The district officials claim that the new election is illegal and was or dered by President John Mitchell with a view of removing Dolan as the off cial head of the district.

WILL BE TEST CASE
Russian Government Requests Re. turn of Man Who Knows
 Some Secrets.

New York, March 2.--"Ihe Russian government, ill order to escape the law which prohibits extradition for political offences, has trumped up q charge of embezzlement against Felix Gaidsis, and seeks to have him re turned to Russia, where torture, if ne- cessary, probably would be employed to compel him to reveal secrets fatal to the interests of the revolutionists
 This accusation, made bv ''-~er yesterday before United States Con- missioner Shields, and bele,eu Dy Russian exiles in, .lis city, has aroused interest and may possibly ere ate an international controversy. Gald- sis's attorney, himself an exile from Russia, makes the charge tor his eli ent, who recently was held by the inn migration officials on request of the Russian government, which through counsel, charges that Gaidsis, while in the employ of Russian official, stole bonds, converted them into mon ey and gambled the cash away.
 Gaidsis's defense is that he, poorly educated man, was a servant in the household of General Lemonsky, at whose residence in St Petersburg men affiliated with the revolutionists met and planned the overthrow of the gov ernment that when Lemonsky and hls fellow patriots were forced to flee, Gaidsis did likewise He is wanted | the lawyer says. and so say Russian | exiles here, to reveal the names of the 1 conspirators whose rendezvous was the generals mansion. Many exiles oI
 fugitive revolutionists appeared in the
 court yesterday. The Russian govern
 ment's counsel, after hearing Gaidsls'.
 lawyers charge, obtained an adjourn 1 ment until March '.
 It is alleged by them that Gaidsi: 1 wrote confession which is to be pro
 duced against him. The mans feilON
 countrymen here say the document f. l written in polished Russian-impossi
 'e by man of Gaidsis's alleged Tim ited education.
