Here are some specific instances Of
plain lying by the republican plat
form: Under the head Of the great
accomplishments OF the Roosevelt adj
ministration sis first and foremost a
brave and impartial administration
eli the law Let the unpublished
official favurite, Paul Morton, con
I ssed rebater, be the sufficient re
futaIion OF this claim. Let the clash
between Roosevelt and Bonaparte
over the prosecution Of Nellen's road,
the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford, be weighed IN the light Of this
declaration Consider the fiat tiasco
of the STANDARD Oil case.
Next In the pane yric we read :
1.-THE prosecution of Illegal trusts
and monopolies. y Have the people
noticed any diminution in the extor-
lions by the beet trust since the vail
ant Teddy charged up against it and
backed down again? Have any illeg-
al trusts or monopo' les directly affect
ing the public welfare lieen Indicted
or punished, and what Is most i'm
portapt of all, made to cease from
troubling?
"Tne complete overthrow Of prefer
ence, rebates aud determinations is
another laurel leaf that appears
withered or bogus. Not even the in-
terstate commerce commission will
support sucb a statement but it and
Teddy both ask for larger powers.
Why necessary, If the evil be COM
pletely suppressed?
1.-THE arbitration of labor dis
putes. y This began before Roosevelt
appeared on the scene, and will last
long after be is gone. Just another
little vain attempt to strut in bor-
rowed plumes, to shine in stolen
light. Nothing specific, either, lest
George Gray and John Mitchell come
into their share of the glory. 1.-THE
amelioration of the condition Of
wage workers everywhere. " Let the
unskiled and The skilled laborers
alike compare their present condi
tion, consider their recent expert
ences and then wonder at the pre-,
sumption OF platform builders who
prolfer so manifest and generally APP
parent lie as this. Are the work
ing men of today living any better,
have they any large surplus left after
expenses have been paid than they
bad before the Roosevelt regime?
With the easy virtue Of the plat
form maker these vague discussions
are assumed to have been made facts,
and the glory of them is given to
Theodore. 1t Is on such tissues OF
false pretenSe, plain prevarication
and bold presumption that the repuh.
licau party comes forward this year
asking for a fresh lease of power.
What shall be the portion of liars?-

CHANCE r0 FRY FAr.

Mr.. TAFT In bis letter of accept.
ance takes up the question OF tariff
revision, on which subject it was ex.
pected he would have something deH
mite enough, but 1t Is frank beyond
all expectations. The tariff, Mr..
TAFT admits, ought TO be revised.
and certain schedules ought TO be re.
duced. "On the other hand,'' SAYS
Mr.. Taft, there are some few other
schedules in which the tariff is not
sufficiently high to give the measure
OF protection which they should re.
ceive upon republican principles, and
as 10 those the tariff should he
raised. !"
IL Is easy Ia imagine the attention
which this statement commanded In
certain quarters, and to picture Tile
satisfaction With which IL was rend
by those who are tarilT revlsionlsts
when the revision is upward. And
1t IL easy, also. to see that the jnpn.

CHOICE OF A BR1AR PIPE.
Get One Which is Smooth Inside the
Bowl, Says Smoker.

A collegian who prides himself on
the sweetness and color OF his brtAr-
wood pipes and pretends to know
lot more than any ordinary smoker,
spent half an hour making an addi-
tion to his already large collection.
Some pipes he discarded because
of the grain of the wood; there was
too much stripe or too much BIRDS
eye, he remarked. When he found
one which suited him he put it aside
until he had gathered three or four
which apparently were all right, and
then came his final test to pick out
the best of them ALL
He held each with the bowl toward
the light, then slowly rubbed his
little finger inside. Two he discard
ed, then repeated the operation with.
the others until only one remained
out of the discard. That one he
bought.
want 'em smooth inside" he ex-
planned. "A brIar pipe roughly fin-
ished inside the bowl isn't worth
bothering with. would not take
one for a gift; wouldn't take the
trouble to try to break it in, for 1t
will never be any gold. 1t won't
cake up right and it'll never be nice
and sweet.
"I've got a theory that when the
inside of the bowl is rough all the
little edges and points of the wood
char and burn the first time you
smoke it, and burnt pipe is no good.
That's why always take pipe that
has a bowl as smooth ON the inside
as on the out.
Then 1t doesn't char but cakes
up evenly and gets good in a little
time. Maybe the theory Is wrong,
but 1t has worked out well in my own
experience, and some OF my friends
who have tried 1t agree with me. -

phyaIeIans Have several jobs.

waterbury, Conn.-In the darkness
near Forestville on the way to Hart
ford Wednesday evening, two big auto
mobiles, one closely following the other
at speed, were wrecked and several
people were injured. Nine people In
the autos had been in this city, leav-
ing here after picking up from train
New York woman. They were partic-
ularly happy when leaving, and tried to
make Hartford to meet a New Rochelle
man who owned an automobile
1t is stated that the two machines
were rushing along close together, the
people keeping up running fire OF
conversation, when something snapped
in the leading automobile and stopped
its course. The second, before 1t could
be got under control ran into the other,
wrecking the two cars and wounding
several Of the occupants.
Physicians set one broken arm and 10
fingers, took nearly 60 stitches and
brought a woman after great effort,
back to consciousness.
Some of the names given were Anna
T. Brainard of Boston, Matte Win
throp Of Boston, George F. Wilkes of
New Jersey or Philadelphia, Seton f.
Barnes of Hastings on the Hudson. Mr..
and Mrs. Walter f. Ramsdell of Brook
lyn, N, Y, and George Smell of Long
Island City. One of the women is
teacher and another is an artist. They
were all removed to this city later and
departed by trains.
Another story is that one of the Wo-
men is seriously injured and that she
was taken in by neighboring farmer
and her foster parents in Boston poti-
fed, and that she was hurrying home
to reach the bedside of an aunt seri-
ously i'll.
The machines are sorry sight.
They were towed away for repairs with
the aid of two substituted wheels. In
the turmoil of the accident covered
car coming along at full speed was
stopped luckily within foot of the
wreck.

Au.OIst weds Actress.

Chicago, Ill.-After many postpone

autoist, winner of the Briarcliff cup anil

Gently to Miss Jeanne Lou Spaulding,
an actress.
Because she disliked the risks hu
takes In auto races is the reason CIV

ceremony SO long.
Last week Strang and Miss Spauld'
ing agreed to have the ceremony per-
formed in Stamford, Conn. to which
city Strang went In his auto from New
York. His fancee was to have fol-
lowed by train.
After procuring license and secur-
ing a minister Miss Spauldlng failed
to put In an appearance and Strang
thereupon declared that the ceremony
would never occur--that he was done
with her.
Miss Spauldlng, on her part, denied
that she had promised to wed Strang.

Want Control of Steamers.

Portland, Me.-In the United SUITES
circuit court recently Judge Willian l..
Putnam ordered that notice of hear
ing on the final decree in the matter of
a petition by the creditors of the Con-
solidated steamship company, for the
sale of the assets, be given. The hear
ing will take place Oct 8, at l o'clock,
When the petition of the creditors
of the Eastern steamship company tor
final decree authorizing the sale of
the assets of that company subject to
the underlying mortgage was brought
up, Judge Putnam refused to admit aay
intervention in the case by other inter-
ests than those which already had
formal standing in the case.
He refused to make any decree that
did not state the upset price, because
he wished to give all persons who
might wish to bid in this property an
equal opportunity for so doing. III
asmuch as the upset price could not
be named the hearing on the case WIS
continued until Oct. 9 at l o'clock.
1t is understood that some Boston
bankers are trying to gain control Vt
the Eastern steamship company, while,
ON the other hand, some of the minor
ity stockholders of whom Charles W.
Morse Is one, are making an effort 10
the same direction.

Murder Laid AGAINST Davis.

Omaha, Neb.-Following five days
hearing before Police Judge Crawford,
Charles Edward Davis was held to an
swer the charge of murder in the first
degree for the alleged killing of DR..
Frederick Rustin on the morning Of
Sept 2. Bail was fixed at $4,000 and
was furnished. tf
County Attorney English, closing the
argument for the state, ridiculed the
alleged alibi, which the defence sought
to make. He also dwelt on the attacks
on Mrs. Rice, declaring that sufficient
evidence had been given to show that
she had nothing to do with the final
act which resulted in Rustin's death
Judge Crawford, without going into the
merits of the case, said that 1t was his
duty to bind Davis over to the district
court.
