The following frightful conditions
are now said to prevail in the United
States:
There is no difference in political
parties; the great hosts of the people
are in common confusion. The dis
tinction between the executive, Judi
cial and legislative order is disappear
ing in an oligarchy named commits

as tyrannical and supreme as the worl4
ever has known. The constitution Is
a mere elastic band

this was the wise aad kindly manner
in which the farmers were treated by
Mr.. Horne and other democrats. At
ter the fusion of populism and repub-
licanism carried the state, and when
many democrats felt that it would be
best for us to make some arrangement
with the populists by which the state
could be redeemed, Mr.. Horne was
outspoken in his de~nunciation Of the
movement. Six or eight years before
he had been moderate and concilia-
tory in dealing with the populists, for
he understood the burden under which
the farmers were then staggering.
But in 1898 he had no sympathy for
any movement looking to a fusion with
Butler, Russell and Thompson. He
was outspoken in denouncfng any such
proposition. He came to the state con-
vention in 1898 and threw his whole in
fuence in favor of a straight ticket.
If there is one idea in Mr.. Horne's
mind, or if there is one motive in his
life which p~redominates owe all 9TH
ers, it is his opposition and hatred
of monopolies and combines. He has
always stood for the individual and
freest competition. He does not be-
lieve in any law which given one man
advantage over another, and he
believes that any agreement between
two or more men, or two Or more COM
panies to restrict competition, or to
create Il monopoly, is q crime against
human rights and ought to be punish
ed in the seVerest manner, He is a
practical trust fighter. Not a trust
on paper, but a nan who has
Systematically and earnestly fought
monOpolies in the only way he found
it practical to fight them.

SCHOOL IS IDEAL FOR THE CARE
 OF BOYS
Territorial Reform School at Benson, Under MT, Maohney, Is Doing Great Work for Future Citizenship.

A Review representative had the pleasure of trip of inspection through the Territorial Reform School at Ben son last Wednesday.
 This institution, while generally un- drestood to be of a penal character, is in fact simply a well conducted home for large number of boys and a few girls. who seemingly lacked the environments and associations of a home indeed, to the average young ster.
 MT. Mahoney, the genial superin- tendent of the institution. conducted us through the different departments and explained the rules and regula- tions in vogue.
 There were two features that stood out most minently-cleanlines and thoroughly good feeling between the superintendent and his juvenile charges. We saw the boys at work in the kitchen, in the store room, in their different household duties, in the laundry, in the brickyard and inn proving the grounds and among the fifty-five boys working in the differ ent capacities we observed naught but pleasant greetings for their superin- ] D. The secret of Mir. Mahoney's success with the boys will be readily under stood by the student of human nature as this kind-hearted old gentleman passes from group to group of the unfortunates and placing his hand carressingly on the shoulder of the one nearest him and repeats from time to time: These are all good boys; every one of them" The rule of kindness is doubtless a new enc to these little fellows, and when it is applied the boy who has come to the institution with a resolu- tion to meet with stubbornness ex- pected harsh treatment, melts at once before the kindly consideration shown him.
 The grounds of the institution are being constantly improved. Fine baseball and croquet grounds are al ready in evidence and other improve ments for pleasure and profit are un- der way.
 Mir. Mahoney will take the boys up into the neighboring mountains for a picnic and outing on Labor Day.
 There are at present fifty-five boys and two girls in the institution.

FOREMAN ON JOB DISCHARGED BY
 COMPANY
Member of Enigneering Firm Makes Statement in Regard to Incident of Friday Even ing at JiggepilIe.

FortunE<ely for all concerned in the matter the damage caused by the ex. plosion of an overcharged hole on the street car right of way in Jiggeryille was not quite as heavy as at first re- ported, and an amicable settlement of the damages will undoubtedly te arrived at between the company and those who suffered
 On Friday evening an attempt was made to get into communication with U. B. Girand. member of the engineer ing firm that has the contract who is giving the work his personal atten- tion, but owing to his being i'll he could not be seen. When asked for a statement yesterday by a representa- tive of The Review. MT. Grand said:
 '- have made a thorough investiga- tiOn of the, damage which was done on Friday evening, and will say that do not think there will be any trou- 5le in arriving at an amicable settle ment with the persons damaged, as it is not our intention to cause a loss to anyone. Of course. such accidents as this are liable to happen. no matter what stringent measures a company may take to prevent them.
 'I am not prepared to say whether the damage was caused by an over charge of powder or not. It is prob. able thss such was the cause, and on account of this probability the fore. man who was in charge of the opera. tions at that point has been dismissed from the employ of our company, be, cause explicit instructions in regard to the handling of powder are given all of our men, and if they do not abide by these instructions we will get employees woh will. do not say that an overcharge was the cause of this trouble. but to be on the safe side we have taken our action in the matter.
 NO doubt the excitemcnt which pre- vailed at the time was the cause of the report that the damage was enOr. nous, but a coller consideration Of the matter shows that it was not so large. I can assure you that no one regrets the fact of the damage any more than we do.'
 The Lucas boy. who was slightly wounded by a flying rock, is in very good condition, and the excitement which prevailed in the little settlement for a time has entirely subsided. ow- Ing to the fair-minded policy of the engineers in charge of the work

Miik, Water
or Local Infection.

Washington, like Pittsburg, drinks
river water, and 1t is afflicted with
typhoid fever every year. So is Pitts
burg. The Potomac water used IN
Washington is taken at point about
fifteen miles above the city, and the
best of storage, sedimentation and i'll
tration has been recently applied to
it. These approved methods have not,
however, diminished the number OF ty-
phoid cases.
The experts of the marine hospital
service have recently reported the re-
suits of their Investigations, and they
are at loss to say what the chief
cause of typhoid infection in Washing
ton is. The case against the water
supply is no better proven than the
case against the milk supply, and
neither is conclusive.

ington Herald, that where typhoid
has been prevalent for a long series
of years, as in Washington, there must
he a serious local infection quite out
side the food and water supply. We
must try to prevent the infection OF
our environment the experts say, by
destroying the infection as 1t leaves
