the past fall however Mrs. Evans left her
husband and with her child returned
to the home Of her father, j. H. Baker.
although no very serious trouble was
attributed to the cause of the separation
At the time of their marriage 1t was
rumored that he had a wife and family
elsewhere Since his arrest he has ad-
mitted this, but says he is divorced aud
the matter has been looked into suf-
ficiently by the authorities and they
feel that divorce has been granted.
While in Hartland Evans has been en-
ployed as machinist by the Linn Wooden
Go. and worked for time In the Sebas-
ticook Skirt factory. When arrested he
was working in numbering crew at No.
Hartiand. He broke completely down
but denied nothing. A hearing was
held Thursday before Trial Justice f..
X Fuller and Evans pleaded guilty to
the charge of being a fugitive from
Justice The arrest was brought about
by Mr.. Fuller, who after being certain
that Evans was the much wanted man
communicated with the Lowell chief of
police and the result was Superintendent

Thursday and accompanied the fugitive
back to that city, Friday. where he will

A rather strange coincidence in con-
nection with the case is the fact that

In conversation Evans said he was
sorry to go but he said he felt much
more at ease than he had since the I'M

child neither going to see him after bis
arrest and said he should never return
to Hartland, but after serving his SEN
tenoe should try TO be man.

No Relief from Trust Extortton.

New Orleans States.
In an interview explaining the
purpose OF the policy devised for
the appointment of receivers for
law-breaking mOnOpolies Attor'
ney General Bonaparte was asked
twas true, ascharg-
ed that all of the trust-busting
operatiOns of the administration
have failed to reduce the prices
of the necessaries of life or to low
err even in the smallest degree
the high cost of living that is now
bearing so heavily on the people.
To this question Mr.. Bonaparte
replied as follows:
That is very broad generali-
cation. You do not know wheth-
er economic causes operating IN
dependently of the effect of any
statutes of the means taken Tor
their enforcement might not have
more than counteracted the eff
feet of any measure taken to en-
force the laws. There is great
deal of wickedness in the world,
Notwithstanding the fact that
sermons are preached against 1t
every Sunday, but it does not
follow that there might not have
been even more wickedness it no
sermons had been preached on
Sunday. In the same way the
cost of living may have gone up
Notwithstanding the pursuit of
many specimens of the genius
octopus. but it does not follow
that if the octopus had been al
lowed to flourish without any
check the increase might not have
been still greater"
The answer is an admission that
the charges of the utter failure
of the ADMINISTRATORS spectacu'
lar and noisy crusade to curb the
rapacity of the trusts are true,
but the admission is neither en-
tirely frank or complete. Mr.
Bonaparte endeavors to furnish
the deluded public with a grain
of comfort by saying that were
it not for the action taken by the
government the increase in the
cost of living might be greater
than it is. However, the people
know from the bills they pay thai
the mild and innocuous proceed
ings of the government have not
frightened the trusts in the least,
nor served as a check on the in
crease in the cost of living, but
on the contrary the cost is advanc'
ing steadily.
The truth is and the people see
it clearly that the law has not
been enforced in any way calcu
lated to interfere with the opera
tons of the trusts. Not a single
step has been taken that would
be effective in restraining the
trusts or securing competition
that would result in reducing the
prices of commodities. Monopoly
is as strongly entrenched as il
ever was, and to sum up the mat
ter the administration s anti trus'
policy is confined to a tangle an(
maze of legal proceedings which
amount to nothing and accom-
plish nothing except the hood
winking of the people.

 The building was badly designed for the purpose for which it is now used indeed am of the opinion that it was not designed for that purpose at all. Nor can see that it can be adapted to its present purpose, and certainly not with regard to future demands, without mourning greater cost than would provide for new proper con- struction entirely.

Total tax per
 SIO0

Our law for the assessment Of prop erty is not entirely satisfactory in op- eration. To make it fairly satisfacto- " to all honest taxpayers and to make it effective according to its intent re Quires, however, that 1t shall be amended in some of its provisions, as l shall point out. Such amendments should be enacted; or, in lieu or amendments to existing law, there should be legislation quite comprehen- sive in character.
 The theory and intent of our law is that every property holder shall pay taxes in that proportion which the value of his property bears to the val ue of all other property in the Terri tory. In practice this theory and clear intent is largely disregarded, and burdens which are grievously ur equal are imposed. And, unfortunate ly, these burdens are imposed upon the very people who are least able to bear them. Even when property is assessed on an equality of valuation the burden falls heaviest upon the poor man, for the payment of the few dollars which he is required to con- tribute to the tax collector from his meager earnings call for far greater sacrifices than do the thousands which may be paid on a property that yields a princely income. Indeed, in the lat ter case there Is TO sacrifice at all But the law takes no note of the de- gree of sacrifice or burden that may be involved, for to distribute the bur den with exact equality has been found too difficult to be practicable At all events, We can not safely under take at this time any changes in the established theory. The law seeks to protect the poor and rich alike in all their rights, and in return demands that the rich and the poor shall pay taxes in equal ratio to the value of the property they own. But when nn- equal assessments are imposed-when the poor man is made to pay far more than his share and the rich man is made to pay far less than his share 1t is instantly evident that the law is not enforced with justice. And yet that is exactly the condition that pre- yails in Arizona today.
 Particularly is this manifest in the assessment and taxation of mines.
 Farms, city and town lots, houses, shops and stores, banks, railroads, cat tie, sheep and horses, and all other smaller items of property are assessed at figures which at least approximate equality, and probably at least one half their value. But the great mines, which produce more wealth and yield greater profits, many times over, Ihm all other classes of property in the Territory combined, pay but a small proportion of the taXes-in no event

Why should this be the case ?

Because they have neglected them selves, as every one of these patients in the hospital beds had plenty of warning in those dragging sensations, pains at left or right of abdomen. backaches, nervous exhaustion, in fammation, alteration, displace- ments. and other organic weaknesses.
 All of these symptoms are indica- tions of an unhealthy condition of the female system and if not needed the penalty has to be paid by dangerous operation. When these symptoms manifest themselves, do not drag along until you are obliged to go to the hospital and submit to an opera tion-but remember that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, has saved hundreds of women from surgical operations.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, has cured more cases of feminine ills than any other one remedy. Such letters as thefollowing

 "For years suffered with female trouble. It WAS decided that an operation was neces- sary, and although submitted to serious operation my sufferings continued, until Lydia E.

The Contest in Ohio Of Far-Reachine
Consequences.

Senator Foraker and theold stand
pat republican machine in Ohio have
declared war upon Secretary Taft,
and President Roosevelt has grasped
his big stick and jumped into the
thickest Of the fight for his big sec
rotary. Roosevelt wants the repub-
lican party to nominate Secretary
Taft next year, because he considers
him competent and willing to con-
tinue the work of the present ad-
ministration. The policies of the
present administration and the
hopes and desires Of the Bryan dem.
ocrats are along nearly parallel lines
and for that reason the machine re.
publicans will make the fight Of
their lives to prevent Roosevelt from
dictatiag the selection of his sue
cessor.
If Foraker beats Taft in the pres
ent struggle, that will end Taft's
presidential aspirations, but it vii
not end Roosevelt's policies. Thil
much is reasonably certain; Roose
welt will eithersname the next re
publican candidate for the presi
dency, or he will be the candidat,
himself.

America was Bunkoed by England and
Japan.

Every day it becomes more and
more apparent that this country
was untrue to its own interests
when it sided with England and
japan in the Russian-Japanese war.
Since that war there has been a
steady decline in our trade with the
Orient. James j. Hill has announ-
ced that the monster steamer "Da-
kota," recently damaged near Japan,
will not re-enter the trans-Pacific
trade owing to the decline in our
commerce with Asiatic countries.
The open door talk on the part OF
Japan was the basest kind of decep-
ton, and should have beenso under
stood at Washington. This country
opens no doors to japanese trade on
this side Of the Pacific, and it was
unreasonable for US to expect that
Japan would open the ports of Corea
and Manchuria to our merchants
after it had become the dominating
influence in those countries.
Great Britain was interested in
weakening Russia, for by SO doing it
relieved the pressure all along the
northern boundary of her Asiatic
possessions, but this country had
everything to gain by maintaining
the influence Of Russia on the west.
