within a day or two before election

that just at this juncture representative men

gested would make, it seems to us, excellent
campaign reading and be extremely useful

repelled by the radicalism of to-day. But
the signers of the petition must not deceive
themselves on two points: Petitions Of this
kind will receive little or no attention from

their appeal is nothing else than a dissent,

saw my door open for his breakfast he should jump

When he thinks II time for me TO get up up he gets
on my chest and looks straight at me until open

around the bed telling me with a very peculiar
injection to his voice that he wants me TO arise and

the delegation might engage in with refer

As to the memorial itself. whether Its re-
quest be granted or not, 1t presents an alarm
ingly pregnant fact when It states that its
signers have reason to believe that an
attack similar to that made on the courts
by the Democratic platform and candidate
in 1898 "is contemplated In the Presidential
campaign OF l90s." This does not mean only
that the Democracy may possibly repeat
this year its past performance" OF twelve
years ago. but that suoh an assa ult may come
from other quarters even. for Gompers is pre-
pairing to marshal his labor hosts against all
candidates who stand for the absolute pro-
lection Of the courts prerogatives, and there
is consequent danger that Republican candi-
dates for Congress--and there will be very
