Des Moines, Ia., Dec. 6.-The in.
dictments found by the federal grand
jury here against the Chicago catalog
firm of Sears, Roebuck & Co., upon
the charge of using the mails to de-:
fraud is regarded as the forerunner Of
a number of similar prosecutions
against other eatalog houses. The.
three counts returned in the indict- [

WI. Pilkington, editor and pro-
prietor of tho Merchants Tade Jour

lecting evidence against these firms
to prove that they are violating the
postal laws of the country in secur-

Editorially he announces in his
paper: "A

Naaman, the Syrian, rejected the
prophets receipt for curing his lep-
rosy because it was too simple. 1t was
only to wash and be clean, He wanted
Elisha to come out to him and stand
and call upon the name of the Lord
and strike his hand over the place.
And so the real cure of the monopoly
that is affecting the country 1T too
simple to impress the public. What
is monopoly? 1t Is the absence of
competition. Then why not, in the
name of reason and common sense,
take down the bars and let competi-
ton enter? A great fine may be i'm
posed upon the Standard Oil Co. But
what will that avail? 1t will simply
result in a higher price for oil, and
so the people will lose instead of find
ing relief in that kind of "trust-bust-
ing" If the sugar trust is exacting an
unfair price for sugar, why not let
the German ~reineries compete with
them? If the tobacco trust maintains
high prices, why not let Cuba COM
pete with it? This is not only too sim
pie, bur it would be too effective. The
people who are standing pat On the

Lawson Declares Roosevelt Must Be

Boston, Dec 26.-Thomas w. Law
son has given out lengthy statement
on his plans for the new political party
that he is organizing, which will have
for it's candidates President Roosevelt
with Governor Johnson of Minnesota
as candidate for vice president.
He says that only the reelection OF
President Roosevelt will prevent a
revolution in this country. 1t is to
stave off civil strife, keep blood from
flowing and to save the republic that
Mr.. Lawson has taken into his own
hands the nomination of candidate
for the two highest offices, who, he
says, will surely be elected whether
they will or not He said:
"Since the panic President Roose'
welt has awakened to a realization
that If he leaves his policies halfway
established he will, as he should, go
into history as an unworthy bungler.
With class arrayed against class, with
the whole people awakened to their
wrongs, yet unable to right them, with
the whole people realizing that they
are to be swept again into the un-
merciful NAV of the system, the whole
people well realize that they had best
been allowed to wallow in their for
mer degradation"

DECLINES TO DISCUSS 1T.
Admiral Brownson Again Asked Con-
cernna His Resignation.


Washington, Dec 26.--Rear Admiral
Willard H. Brownson, whose resigna-
tion as chief of the bureau of naviga-
tion of the navy department was an
nounced at the White House, has
turned over the affairs Of his Office to
Captain Cameron MGR. Winslow, who
has been designated to take charge
of its work He then said goodbye to
his late associates in the office and
returned to his home.
Admiral Brownson declined again
to discuss the reasons which led up to
his resignation. Again he made it
manifest that any information bearing
on the subject must come from those
higher up in authority, to whom he
referred all who asked him for news
on the subject. He said it was with
the greatest regret that he took leave
of the navy department in an active
capacity after forty-six years of serv-
ice.
At the White House efforts to Sc
cure Admiral Brownson's letter of res
ignation or the reasons for his leav-
ing the active service were met with
the positive statement that nothing
beyond the bare announcement of the
admiral's resignation and the selec
ton of his successor would be given
out from that quarter either now or In
the future
