eral Men, Severely Beat
ing Them.

New York, Aug. 5-Louis Conconela,
p years old, was the victim of the
blind fury of rioters last night and
probably will die Of his injuries. He
was innocent of wrongdoing, but fell
before a crowd determined to have re-
venge on some one.
The dangerous temper of the people,
particularly in the foreign quarters,
who have been aroused by reports of
attacks upon women and girls, was ex-
hibited last hight in repeated instances.
a cry that stranger had approached
a child with familiarity was enough to
start mob.
Attacks Bystander.
Sadie Hamburger, aged years, play
| ing in the hallway of her tenement
home in East Ninety-fifth street last
evening, cried out that a man had
seized her. The child's father seized
George Keshner, Russian bookbind-
er, by the throat. The excitement at
tracted 500 men and women, who
fought with each other to get a chance
at the Russian.
Thirty policemen rescued Keshner,
bleeding from score of wounds, and
when all his clothing but his shoes
had been torn from him. The police
wrapped the prisoner in blanket and
hurried him away Sadie's sister cor
roborated the story of the attack, and
the father says that he saw his daugh-
ter in the grasp of the Russian.
About the same time Hylo Saloda
Inearly lost his scalp in Thirty-fourth
street He was accused of having of
fered pennies to a girl of II years. The
father wanted to know why, and Salo
da showed fight He slashed about
him with penknife, and then knock
led down a policeman. A crowd of l.,
1000 persons tried to reach Saloda, but
/. lpolice reserves beat them back and
took Saloda to the station.
Innocent Man MObbed.
Conconela was the victim of circum
, stances. A man and wife quarreled il
: Zone Hundred and Seventeenth street
and their youthful daughter went ou
to the sidewalk and wept. A passing
5 boy slapped her and ran away. The
| girls cries and the running boy arouse,
the neighbors, who chased the lad. Th'
: boy escaped and Conconela, who ha'
! outfooted the other pursuers, was mis-
taken by the mob for the girls assail
: ant.
II Overtaken at last, Conconela was Sc
i upon, knocked down, and kicked unit

Will NOT ADVANCE OIL
PRICE TO PAY THAT fine

by methods economically and morally
unjustifiable.
"The Standard has superior efficien-
cy i'll running its own business; it has
an equal efficiency in destroying the
business of competitors. Ii keeps for
itself the profits of the first, and adds
TO these the monopoly profits secured
by the second.
Beyond All Reason.
Its profits are far above the highest
possible standard of d reasonable COM
mercial return, and have been steadily
increasing.
Finally, the history of this great
industry is history of the persistent
use of the worst industrial methods,
the eXacting of eXorbitant prices from
the consumer and the securing of ex-
cessive profits for the small group of
men who, over long series of years,
have thus dominated the business"
In a few days another section of the
report will be made public, setting
forth the importance of price discrim-
ination in restraining the business of
competitors and augmenting the profits
of the Standard.

ono of The most highly perfected
institutions in this country is the gov
crument railway service. When the
letters and papers come in the morn
ing, few people stop to think of the
busy workers who spend hours and
hours of weary toll in the travelling
postal car as it thunders onward
through the night, bringing the com
munications of commerce and society
hour and hours ahead of the sched-
ules knOWn anywhere else in the
world. Uncle sam has about $4,000
railway postal clerks who ride in eS-
pccially constructed cars, and work
the mail as ii PUSHES across the Vari-
GUS states Of the Union to its destina-
tions.
The Burlington runs a train from
Chicago TO Omaha, a distance of 800
miles, that makes the "trip night after
night i'm about 500 minutes. To mako
all necessary stops and s~loW-doWns,
and stiIl maintain a speed OF a mile a

markablc performance. This train
consists of four cars carrying nothing
but fifty toms Of mail, which is ham
died every trip. Fifteen clerks ride III
The cars to sort the letters and papers
while the sensational dash is being
made.
IN addition to The Burlington's fa-
NOUS train. there are some thirty
other special mail trains which leave

somewhat sensational, because we de
mand it. If it were not that, we should
call it dull and stop our subscription.
But all our best newspapers, and ma
ny of them are in that class, are ag-
ainst w~ickedness, against tyranny ag-
ainst oppression, against theft, and
against wrong of every ind and
name; they daily advocate the high
er qualities of life, and plead for fair
ness between man and man.
There is no greater preventive of
crime than the newspaper. Charles
Hopkins Clark, editor of the Hart
ford Courant, in his Yale lectures
says: The newspaper does a very
large duty to public morality in exer-
cising the right of publication and in
standing guard ready to expose wrong
doing. There is no doubt that this has
an important effect in lettering peo-
pie, whe but for fear of that expo
sure might venture pom crime l be
lieve the editor is correct. When a
heinous sin exists in the state, when
a city is in the grip of grafters and
thugs-at such a time the people us
ually are helpless. The newspaper I'm.
covers the crime, points out the evil
doors, brings them to punishment and
stamps out the pest"

E N PULPIT.

The following excellent characteri-
cation of the press is an extract from
a sermon by Rev. Edwin Emerson
Davis. pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church of Roswell:
Il am asking no favors of the news
papers. Their kind and valuable as
sistance, however, is greatly appre-
ciated by me. They are mighty friends
and they are powerful My desire
is to show the wonderful opportunity
of the press of our day, and what it
may do in the advance of human pro-
gress, and in the triumph of justice
and righteousness. The clean news
paper is a necessity of our life. 1t is
as essential as the school or the
church. As an entertainer. as a de-
tective agency, as an educator, ]. is
a force with unreasonable power.

pator and savior of men. The pulpit

gives the truth to the limited number
that gather to lear it. The newspaper
gives it to the ends of the earth. The
Christ said: L am the truth He also
said, The truth shall make you free
Truth is to be published. Men must
know the truth, if they are to be V
ed by it. The church's business is to
make known the ruth. The newspa-
per has come to extend the truth and
to assist in the triumph of the Chris
tan religion.
The primary and direct mission of
the preacher is to tell men that their
sins may be forgiven; that their hos
tility to God must become loyalty to
God; that the troubled heart may
know the peace of heaven. And fur
Their, the preacher must snow men
the way and lead them to the best
living and the highest life. The
churches product is life. The perfect
example of that life is the Prophet
of Galilee. And nothing less than
the truest and noblest living will sat
isfy the Master and Pattern of life.
Some of you may be surprised to
hear that a minister thinks that the
newspaper can greatly assist in the
extension and triumph of truth But,
surprised or not, it is true. OF course,

nalism. That kind of newspaper mas

A NOBLE SENTIMENT.

From Albuquerque journal.
In the course of an address deliver
ed a few days ago. Governor Hughes,
of New York, defended himself ag-
ainst attacks that had been made up
on him because he mad failed to APP
point to office certain personal
friends, and in the course of his re-
ark he said:
Il would consider myself guilty
of a crime against the state if l
should appoint an incompetent or
unworthy man, because of personal
friendship"
No sounder sentiment than that was
ever uttered. Every governor in the
United States, the President himself,
and every other public official VINO
holds the appointing power, should
keep these words of the New York
governor constantly before him, to
keep him ever in mind of the fact
that such power was not put into his
hands for the purpose of enabling
him to reward personal friends, and
discharge personal obligations, but
for the protection and promotion of
the public good, and to use it in the
appointment of an incompetent. dis
honest or unworthy man, because he
is a personal friend, is ga crime
against the state"

THE n D

From st. Louis Republic.
President Roosevelt's reference to
the railroad which is doing business
in far western states under a New
Jersey charter doesn't alright the
intelligent student of political econo-
my half so much as the reverse view
he offers of a national railroad char
tered at Washington doing business
in any state it pleases to enter. As
things are now. the railroad charter
ed by New Jersey enters other states
by the license of their statutes, and
not by the inherent right of its for
eign charter; but under the Roosevelt
plan of Federal Incorporation, the ma
tionally chartered railroad would en-
ter n state without asking leave Oh
fearing h~ildrance. That is the radi
cal revolution Mr.. Roosevelt invites
and he may be sure that the mericar
people are against him on that issue
by an overwhelming majority.

OF them hold that Christ will come before

do not take sides On this issue, but hold
that we should always be looking for the
coming of Christ. according to the New
Testament. =, s
Baptsts hold to the eternal rewards of
the righteous and eternal punishment OF
the wicked. 5Ev. fst&S
Baptists believe that the church of the
New Testament is both universal and To-
cal; that the church universal Is made
up Of all who believe In tho Lord Jesus
Christ everywhere. Tho chuxch univer-
sal. however, has no outward organiza-
ton, but Is made UP simply Of the fol-
lowers Of Christ throughout the world.
Baptists believe that the local church
consists of all those who have been i'm
,nersed in tho name Of the Trinity. who
have voluntarily united themselves to-
gcthcr. under the guidance OF the Holy
Spirit, for tho maintenance OF the ordi-
nances. for splr:~lal growth ak-, mutual
