On the general conspiracy set up in
the allegation by the state, the gen
eral showing has been as follows: Or
the more important movements con-
nected with the alleged attempt on
the life of Fred Bradley at San
Francisco by independent witnesses
and his story Of poisoned milk has
been, carried down to the chemist
who analyzed it.
It has been independently shown
that while Orchard was at San Fran
cisco, Pettibone, using false names,
telegraphed money to him twice
through the Postal Telegraph com
pany and that registered letter or
package was sent to San Francisco
from ,Pettibone's Denver address and
that other names were used by Pet.
, tibone in sending one of the tele.
graphic remittances.
Other than by Orchard it has moi
been shown that the Bradley expIo

Labor Shares in Prosperity.

American wage earners are enjoy
ing a large share Of the general pros
perity of the country. This fact Is
shown by an analysis of the recently
published report of the United States
bureau of labor on wages. hours Of
labor and prices of food. The figures
show that the average wage Garner is
working shorter hours than ever be-
fore, that he is receiving more pay
for the short hour week than he for
merly received for the long hour
week, and that the increase in his
average wage has been so great that
its purchasing power has risen, not
withstanding the increase in prices of
many commodities. Finally, it shows
that there has been an enormous in
crease in the number OF persons en-
ployed.

FOREIGN EXPORTER PAYS TAX.
Why He 10 So Violently Opposed TO
American Tariff Duties.

We find In the free trade Philadel-
phia Record the following queer and
acknowledging ~presentment OF a IA
millar question:
Much of the talk OF the effects OF
maximum and minimum duties goes
upon the assuredly false assumption
that the duties are paid by the ex-
porters, and not by the people who
impose them. When people want for
sign articles of necessity or Injuries
yery badly they will import them
whether the duties be higher or lower,
unless wholly ~prohibitory. The former
notion, p~ropagated by the Protective
Tariff league and the Boston Home
Market club, that foreigners pay the
Dingley duties for the privilege OF
trading with this country, has been
%well.night abandoned by sensible peo-
pie. AS a substitute for a comprehen-
sive revision of a barbarous tariff sys-
tenn based on the interests OF the
masses of the people minimum duties
to preferred customers are little better
than t%rinkgeld, or tips in trade"
Has the Record never neard OF uuai
tariffs adopted by foreign nations for
the avowed purpose Of compelling the
| United States to lower its own tariff
rates? II the foreign exporter pays no
part of the duties, why Is he 50 des'
perately determined, even to the point
Of threatening to exclude our W ex-
ports, upon breaking down these du'
ties? According to the Recotd's phil.
osophy all these threats of tariff war
fare unless we reduce our duties ema

CINE that their profits would be higher

The real point is to emphasize the
