DO THE PEOPLE RoLE,

the Voters that Trusts Control
Legislation.

After all the excitement over the
publication Of the Standard OIL letters,
showing that trusts control leglsIa.
ton, has reached the stage where the
voters slft the wheat from the chah Of
sensational publications, what will be
the logical conclusion In the minds
Of the voters7 II will be:
THAT the people do not rule be-
cause the national lawmakers legis.
late to suit the trusts. More trusts
exist today than ever, the people suf-
fer more from them, and they prac.
tice more extortion.
2.-Thst the party In power Is the
party through which the trusts rule.
The Republican party is now In power.
II writes all the national laws. In
epeech In the last Congress, Mr.. sher-
man candidate for Viee-President),
declared that the Republican party
assumed all responsibility for every.
thing that has been done and for what
has not been eone. That Is right.
The trusts write the tariff laws passed
by Republican votes. n the msgnstes
are not punished erin1inaIIy, II is be.
cause Republican officials fall In their
duties. For eleven years tho Demo-
Gratis have had no power TO frame
Federal laws or to execute a Federal
statute. " everything In America Ia all
right as to Federal laws for eievsn
years, the Republican party deserves
the credit. II "evis have crept In"
the Republicans are responsible. Tho
only hope for change lies In the cleo.
tisn Of Bryan.
Suppose some Individual Democrat
has been employed by trust. He
could not get law passed, he could
not get IAN immunity BATH" he could
do nothing effectively for the trusts
unless a majority of the Republican
congressman favored the trust meas
ures. The Republican orators can not
escape responsibility by trying to pick
out some Democrat who has been en-
ployed by trust. Recent disclosures
prove that the people do not rule, but
that the trusts owe their existence and
fatness to Republican laws and Repub.
liesn officials.

Former TiOnesta Lady Insane.

Mrs. Charles l.. Black, a former resi-
dent of Wilkes. Barre, Pa, worried by the
desertion of her husband several months
ago, has become insane. On Thursday
morning she placed boards and a plank
on the track of the p. r. r in the Siverly
yard. as train No. 63 was pulling into the
city. The engineer saw the obstruction
and put on the emergency brakes and
when the train slackened its speed she
waved her shawl and threw away her
pocketbook. The woman was taken to
the lookup and will probably be sent to
the State Hospital for Insane at Warren
to-day. Last night when the janitor,
Guy Shaffer, went into the woman's cell
to give her her supper, she became vio-
lent and attacked him with a chair, driv-
ing him outside. She then smashed all
of the electric light bulbs and the porce-
lam insulator at the turmoil switch, leav-
ing the room in darkness. Chief of Police
Reid was notified, overpowered her and
locked her in a cell. Mrs. Black heard
that her husband had located in Kenner-
dell, Pa, last spring and came here in
search of him. She brought with her
cards printed In that city offering a re-
ward of $50 for the return of her husband
and made personal search for him
throughout this section without results
and her present mental condition is APP
parently the result of that desertion and
constant worry. She has a brother in this
city, Samuel Hepler, of Cornplanter ave-
nue., and daughter, Mrs. Bert Sigworth,
lives in Lickingville, Clarion county,
Oil City Derrick, Friday.
Mrs. Black, who was formerly Mrs.
Kinch, is we'll known in this community.
where she resided for many years.
Friends sympathize deeply with her in
this deplorable matter. 1t has been nee
essary 10 remove her to the State hospital
at North Warren.
