Thus he is in a position to make i'm possible any law which has not his sanction.
 Cannon is of the republicans repub- lican, and against his domination the democratic members are powerless. but at least they can publicly evidence their disapproyal of him. They nave not been so alert as they should have been in fighting the growing power of the speaker, and they were unduIy po- lite when at the close of each congress they voted him thanks for the fair and impartial manner fin which he has presided.

HARTMAN WILL

 SPECIFIC CAUSE
Suits Brought Against Union Pacific and Southern Pacific Under Anti Sherman Law Will Be Dropped.

CHICAGO, Sept 17.-In a special dispatch from New York to the Chi eago Record Herald of Tuesday it's correspondent discussing the market report sends the following:
 The most interesting feature Of the day was a report which circulated in the best circles to the effect that a government attorney was authority for the statement that the suit of the government against the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific companies for violation of the sherman Act had been definitely dropped and the prosecution having after many conferences and through consideration arrived at the conclusion that it would be unable to make out a case against those roads. Formal announcement of this determi- nation of the litigation would, it was said, be withheld until after the cleo tion."
 Hon J. E, Lamb of Indiana. mem, Der of the advisory committee of the National Committee, commenting upon this statement had this to say:
 ''In view of the fact that this state ment is published in the Chicago Record-Herald, which is supporting Taft and sherman, however much ii may astoand the general public may be considered as authentic. These suits against AIT Harriman's pet rail roads were ordered brought by the administration something near year ago. with a great flourish of trumpets and II was generally believed that the administration was in earnest and that the Department of Justice would obey orders. Now that Nil Hartman has promised to be gooo and his special attorney, William Net son Cromwell, has been appointed d member of the Republican National Advisory committee and has couurp uted fifty thousand dollars to the fund of that committee, it seems that the prosecution has after many confer ences and thorough consideration ar rived at the conclusion that 1t would be unable to make out case agaIns' those roads is the conclusion arrived at an honest one; or rather is not the conclusion the result of the changed attitude of the Hartman railroads towards the Republican national t1cR et2 Is the fact that formal announce ment of the termination of this liti gation would, it was said, be with held until after election corroboratIve proof that a corrupt deal has beer made between My dear Hartman and somebody representing the United States government?

What the Federation of Labor in Chl. cago did has been followed by branch. es in New York and other cities. The opposition of Mr. GOmpers' couIse nss come largely from metropolitan pa pers of the country. Up to the pres ent time MT. Gompers' course has met with the approval of all organized national politics. Speaking of the misrepresentation of his fight to have organized labor endorse his course with respect to politics, Mr. Gompers wrote the Central Labor Union of Brooklyn, N. Y. the following letter.
 I beg to assure you that appre- ciate your letter more that have words to express. In view of the de iiberate misrepresentation by the press of labor's position. as well as my position. in the present campaign, it is not only gratifying but encour- aging and helpful to receive sUCH IeJ- ters as you have written. As you will understand. in this fight, we will need all the help that can be possibly given us."

 Without doubt the ovation given Delegate Smith at Flagstaff was one of the biggest ever accorded a candi. date for office in that city. This has been a severe blow to Smith, who has counted on Cameron at least carrying his own county of Coconino.
 To those who are willing to listen Chairman Smith has a fine line of warm atmosphere, and he unblushing ly asserts that Cameron is sweeping Arizona like wildfire; in fact he can not see where Delegate Smith will carry a single county if this thing keeps up.

 After the November election the re publicans who are trying to work up enthusiasm for Cameron will wonder what started so much foolishness in their brainpans.
 The enthusiasm for Cameron in this campaign seems to be all bottled up in the republican newspaper offices in COchise county.
 Cochise county will give Mark Smith a majority of not less than one thousand. and three hundred of this majority will be recorded in Douglas, notwithstanding Mike Torpey and Judge Mcdonald.
