DECLARATION HE PLANS To
LAND THE DEMOCRATS.

NEW YORK, Dec. Elm the face
of a recent declaration announcing his
intention never again to run for pub
lie office, William Randolph Hearst
is continuing the work of building up
the Independence League for presiden-
tial purposes. This fact is beginning
to cause comment and uneasiness in
political circles here, and there is con-
siderable speculation concerning the
attitude the editor will assume IN the
coming campaign. The developments
of the past few weeks have Convinced
the sages that the never again
statement was issued merely to serve
as a sedative to the public and the
press while Max Ihmsen's secret serv.
ice squad is working
Within the boundaries Of New York
state the Independence Leagues pro-
moters seem satisfied to retain their
present enrolment and are not openly
seeking proselytes, except in the rural
districts In New England, the south
and the west, on the other hand, they
are following the Organize, organize

All the cities of Importance, as well
as the towns and villages, are being
equipped with skeleton associations to
which the sinews will be supplied
when necessary. Money is not so plen
eiful as in the days of old, but prom

New York state politicians incline
to the belief that Hearst will attempt
to bully the democrats into some com
bination whereby, if he cannot win the
nomination himself, then second place
on the national ticket will go to ar

HOODOO DAY
HAS PASSED
THE THIRTEENTH, GOES
INTO HISTORY, AND NO BAD
MIsHAPS ARE RECORDED.

CHICAGO, Dec. 1i.-Frlday, the
18th, vanished at midnight, and the
superstitious who had spent the day
lodging the "hoodoo" sighed a recess
sional hymn of .contentment and re-
lief
The day of direful malignity, as the
believer in signs look upon it, dragged
in it's train such a small record Of
mishap and ill luck that when one
considers the elaborate preparations
taken to avert it's "spell"-the thous-
ands of rabbits feet bought at Is cents
per foot the millions of times that
the superstitious turned around three
times in their footsteps or tapped on
wood, and the other precautions SO
dear to the sign readers"-the day
failed to deliver the goods.
And at that it was not only Friday,
the 18th but was the thirteenth day
of the thirteenth lunar month.
Plenty of evidences were at hand
during the day to show that supersti-
ton has as much a home in Chicago
as on the banks of the Congo. AS was
the case in New York the stock mar
ket reflected the belief in the hoo
doc" The reason attributed for this
was that the wary were not taking
any chances on Friday, the 18th.
In some of the brokerage Offices in
both cities the calendar was turned
upside down for luck, and in other
Thursdays page was not removed I'M
til after O'clock and the gong had
sounded. while in many horseshoes
were nailed above the door.
In New York, in particular, brokers
who did bid for stocks were asked by
associates why they did so on an un-
lucky day, and so far as business went
the New York exchange could hardly
have been said to have opened at all.
The Gotham brokers were so blue that
at noon they rented a hurdy-gurdy
and tried to chase bad luck away by
executing a lively dance, in Hanover
square.
In Chicago one bold spirit was
found superstition-proof. He was Post
master Campbell, who rocked so little
of the malevolence credited to the day
that he issued invitations for a birth
day party to be given Judge McEwen
Monday night in a summer garden at
Dunning.

EUROPEAN SENTIMENT
AGAINST JAPANESE
BERLIN PAPERS ALLUDE TO
CHECK GIVEN VANITY OF ORR
ENTAIL POWER.

LONDON, Dec. 21.-On the CONT
nent the tide of feeling runs today, as
at all times, against Japanese policies.
Anything like judicial summary OF
the case for and against Tokyo is not
to be heard in Paris or Berlin.
Emperor Williams painting of the
yellow peril is forever within the
gaze of the Reichbote, which insists
that "Japan's doubtful victory over
Russia is Offset by the snub she must
take from the United States"
Even the Vorwaerts does not con-
ceal It's satisfaction over the CHECK
about to be given to the overwearing
vanity of the oriental power posing as
the champion of the cheapest labor in
the world
French opinion finds a basis in the
aggressiveness of Japan in southern
Manchuria.
"The Chinese have a just grievance
against Japan" says a Paris newspa-
per- for her efforts to nullify the
treaty to Portsmouth by gradual abb
sorption of territory from which Rus
STA was excluded
France, solitary among the powers
in not setting herself to work imme-
diately after The Hague congress tc
augment her naval strength, will de-
lay no longer In the lobby of the
chamber of deputies has been hearc
the booming of the saluting guns Of
the, warships with Evans.

STRUCK ACHI.

Charlie Achi, the local attorney,
barely missed a serious accident
shortly after noon today on Fort street
Just in front of the Mcintyre building
entrance. He was crossing the street
when a Chinese messenger for one OF
the business houses ia town came
along on his bicycle. Achi saw him
coming but before he could get out of
the way the front wheel struck him
a glancing blow on the leg. The boy
on the wheel jumped off and asked II
he could do anything, but Charlie
said that as no damage had been done
he would forgive him this time, but
warned him 10 be more careful in the
| future.
