A LIVE PAPER VS.. A DEAD PA
PER.

If the Daily Industrial News would
arrange to secure and publish Wash
ington letters from the National cap
ital like some we have published in
The Caucasian, it would be one means
to increase its subscription list, and
besides, the paper would then be &C
complishing something for the ad-
vancement of Republican principles.
A dead paper can not live; live
people will not read it: and such
paper can only exist by contributions
from the outside, and such a paper
will have little or no influence. But
a live Republican paper would live
and prosper without contributions
from Federal ofice-holders or from
any other source, and would have
commanding influence.
The Republicans of the State de-
serve and must have such a daily pa
per.

TWO RECIPES-PATENTED.

For Building up Party: Give the
Federal Offices, as far as possible to
those who will swear allegiance to
the machine, and who can be de-
pended upon to help manipulate pri-
maries and conventions but do moth
ing to make the party grow. To
frown upon the coming of recruits
and to try to read out of the party
those who become too active in build
ing it up, and if this should fail, to
have those most offensive in their
activity for the growth of the party
arrested on the morning of election
before they vote by Democratic Of
ficer with instructions not to accept
bail.
For Making a Success of a Daily
Newspaper: Have only men on the
paper who are subservient to the
machine; to prevent the publication
of any news that is not pleasing to
the machine, and, especially, to sup
press political news from counties
that are not subervient To use the
paper as an organ for the machine,
and to vent its spleen against those
whom it does not like and to use it's
columns to abuse those who have
done most to establish and contrib
ute to the success of the paper.
These two political recipes can be
depended upon to accomplish what
the machine desires, and the State
Chairman has a patent on both.

Attorney Says He Has Investigated
Mental Condition and Feels
Sure of Sanity.

New York, April 21.-The first step
in proceedings looking to the release
of Harry K. Thaw from Matteawan

ham of Newburgh appeared as Thaw's
counsel before Supreme Court Justice

piled for an order directing the SUI

to the major domo's office, where they
said they had received the communion
owing to a mistake and spat it out,
not believing it to be consecrated.
The pope, hiding his deep emotion
and amazement with a view of pre-
venting scandal, hushed the incident,
but in spite Of all efforts it was gener.
ally known in the afternoon.
Pope Weeps In Grief.
The pope was so grieved that he
wept bitterly. He is convinced the
sacrilege was premeditated, and the
Austro-Hungarian ambassador proba
bly, will be recalled.
The sistine chapel will not need re
lconsecration, as the sacrilege did not
constitute proclamation. The three per
sons who offended say they did not in
tend any outrage against Catholicism
Hhey say they received the communion
by an error and did not actually spi
out the host.
! They now realize the enormity o
their act and regret it. The pope hope,
they will receive Gods grace and will
become Catholics, the only way il
which they can expatiate their of
tense.

Works for Public.
New York, April 21.-An interviewer
yesterday suggested that Bryan, hav-
ing been credited with an earning ca
pacity of from $4,000 to $4,000 a
year, might be exposed to the charge
by opponents that he was no longer
representative of the laboring class,
but a, full fledged plutocrat.
To this the candidate for the demo
cratic presidential nomination replied:
MY income is derived mainly from
my lecturing with some addition from
articles written for other publications,
and something FROM my own paper.
but the amount has been greatly exag-
gerated. 4 make more speeches for
nothing than for pay, and devote more
time to public work than to private
gain.
Prominence an Advantage.
"My political prominence has been
an advantage in that it has given me
a larger reading circle and a larger
audience, but l could have used the
prominence in other ways to greater
pecuniary advantage. For instance,
was. offered $4,000 year as counsel
for corporation, but it would have
taken me out of the political field By
lecturing and writing can make what
l need in half the time and have the
rest for public work
Political prominence is an asset in
any kind of business. l could not
have turned my attention to anything
where it would not have been an ad
| vantage, and had I used all of my time
| lecturing and writing l could have
made twice as much as have"
squelched Fresh Reporter.
| Among the questions which Mr.. Bry
an did not answer was this one put by
a reporter:
do you expect to be nominated fol
/ the presidency?"
We'll, this is refreshing" said Mr.
Bryan, with smile. Il presume yot

will remember that the book begins

If julius Caesar had known you before
he wrote that book, he probably would
have struck out two of the parts"

committee have decided that no tariff
reduction measure of any kind shall
be allowed to pass
Hope for Relief Small.
The resolution offered by Speaker
Cannon effectual1y closes up the ave-
nue. for the tariff reduction measure
desired by the publishers. A COM
mission of six members of the house
is directed to investigate the paper
trust, paper prices and the methods
of paper making.
The resolution has been sent to the
committee on rules, of which the
speaker is chairman. 1t will be re-
ported from that committee in an ex-
tremely short time and placed in
front of the house with orders to pass
il whether or not.
The commission that will be ap-
pointed will be authorized to sit dur
ing the recess of congress. but there
will be little sitting-only some
desultory comforting and looking
around.
1t is now given out that there is to
be a move towards tariff revision any
way next session, so why hurry?
The resolution offered by the speak
er is his ultimatum and a curt refusal
to allow the wheels of legislation to
grind out some immediate relief for
the consumers of print paper.
Hence There IL No Trust.
The resolution declares that the at
torney general has notified congress
of the fact that he has been unable
to find proof of criminal conspiracy
or sufficient evidence to begin civil
proceedings against the paper trust,
and inferentially intimates that the
advance of $60,000,000 a)year in the
cost of white paper to publishers is
not due to the existence of the tariff
by stating that the duty of Sc a tor
on wood plup and white paper has
been the same for the last Is years.
