LOOK OUT FOR
 THE BIC SCARE.

Hon. F. NJ. Murphy sends state ment 10 the Arizona Republican from New York in which he says there Is great rejoicing among the business in terests because of the nomination of Taft We imagine that Mir. Murphy must have got his impression by rub ping against Wall street bankers and brokers who receive their daily cue from Morgan. Rockefeller. ct al. Mir Murphy in his statement attempts to arouse enthusiasm for Taft by declar- ing that it is necessary to take a prompt and active stand for the re publican ticket or there may be dan ger of delay in the return of business and industrial prosperity. We do not believe Mr. Murphy could create such an impression as that in any other io- i cality than in New York
 The impressions Mir Murphy has re ceived right on the heels of the repub- lican national convention may be ex- pected to be the impressions Wall street will attempt to create through out the country That Wall street and the trust interests of the eoun try are pleased with Taft as the pres idential candidate no one will doubt and it may be expected that every body who can be deceived by Wal street and the interests will be made to believe that Taft's defeat in No vember will cause bankruptcy and ruin to spread over the land, notwith standing the emergency currency leg isIation recently enacted by the repub- licans. We may expect also that all the taritf protected industries of the country will join in giving the alarm and, as in 1896, will post notices on their factories notifying employees that This factory will close if Bryan is elected"
 It is regrettable that MT. Murphy should be led to believe that the npin- ions of Wall street, or the opinions of New York are to be relied upon. Come back home, MT Murphy, and listen -tc the boys around the mining camps and you will hear different opinion of Taft, and you will perhaps learn that in Ar Eona is an American spirit which believes that America will thrive and prosper no matter who Is elected president.

treasury is one of the most curious departments in that big piece of gov ernment machinery. It had small beginning somewhere back in the his tory of the department but it has grown in size until it has a dignity and importance all its own. Of course the mystery of the whole business is one of it's fascinations This latest record-breaking contr' button. for in- stance. came unsigned and with no other explanation cf it's origin than the postmark of Jersey City, N. J. Interest was added to the enclosure by the statement in writing that the $So00 was intended us further pay ment of sum amounting. in total to S2o000. The sender declared that 5000 had already been sent. and this statement the treasury officials con flrmed.
 This contribution while large is not really the record-breaker, that honoE going to a contributor who sent from England the sum of s14.5oO in loose bills. There is.a pathetic interest be hind these attempts to repair wrong on the part of men whose conscience has awakened to drive them toward
 hat goal of all the penitent-restitu- tion. How much of suffering and of self-excoriation. or how long or bitter
 he struggles that have resulted ill these voluntary acts of restitution only the victims will know. There is | another and brighter side. however for the conscience fund" indicates a recuperative moral power in man that holds the largest hope for the race as well as encouragement to the individ ual wrongdoer.

AMERICAN QUEENS.

If the Amer;can woman occupies q position where, os if by right. she ac- cepts the homage of her subjects-the entire male population-it is a posi- tion that she has won by right. and which. evidently, she intends to strengthen rather than to weaken. Year by year she is forging to the front, and is becoming more of fac tor. not alone in the social but in the industrial and commercial life of the country
 For it is not mere sentiment that gives the American woman a place in the forefront of American progress. As wage-earners and providers they have won place that forces their masculine competitors to regard them with respect and admiration, and which makes it clear that no mere kingdom of domesticity will satisfy their desire to rule.
 The census bureau reports on the various avocations of life, and it, finds that there are sos of these, and in all of them except nine women fill places wcrthily. There seems to be no bound to the measure of their activities; they practice medicine; they plan the construction of buildings; they are ad- mitted to the bar and practice law; n the realms of chemistry they have made discoveries denied to man; in the arts and sciences they hold hon orable records-and the end is not yet
 So far has the tendency Of inde- pendence gone today in the United States that there are in round figures 6, 6,0o0, 900 women who earn their own living. one-half of the single women of the country are self-supporting. It Is unfortunate that the absence of sen timent in statistical tables does not allow of showing of how many mar ried women support their husbands.
 But in New York city alone there are 0O,OO0 women who support them selves by their labor and, according to Mir. Herbert N. Casson. there are in the same city some 10000 women hunting positions.
 It is one of the signs of the times, this competition of women in the ield with men and it cannot be re garded as a bad sign. There is mighty little sentiment in the employ ment of women; if they get jobs that have been held by men, it is, in nearly every instance, solely because they do the work better than men, are more steady and more to be relied lpon All honor to them. One cer- tain result of their keen competition will be for a higher ideal of duty; if they set a higher pace than the men nave set, it will mean that the men will have to hustle harder and strive for higher ideals ao keep up with the procession. It has not been easy for the American man to feel himself en- .irely worthy Of the American queen,

THE PLATFORM.


 In the platform adopted at Chicago the republican party lays claim to all the prosperity which has come to this country during the last fifty years, as the result of its energy and progress sive spirit It assumes all credit for the building of railroads; 1t assumes all credit for the clearing of and cul- tiyation of land by the toiling farm CTS. but says nothing about the bur dens placed on these farmers as a result of the protection accorded to the manufacturers on every article necessary to the home and comfort of the family It claims all the credit for the development of the mineral in dustry of the country, but says noth- ing about the fact that tariff tax is placed on many articles of American manufacture while these same articles are sold in foreign countries for less than they can be bought at home. It claims credit for all the industry and success of the people in spite of the useless burdens of taxation placed up- on them by the republican party.
 While making these extravagant claims the platform devotes much space to making promises to correct the evils which the republican party has permitted to grow up in this coun- try It promises to pass laws for the regulation of the trust evil. which was never heard Of before the repub- Iican party came into power and be fore the policies of protection of the classes were inaugurated by it. Il promises to revise and lower the tar if system under which the toiiers ot this country have been, boldly robbed under the forms of law during the life time of the republican party. It prom ises to enact a new currency law now after having fattened the national bankers of the country for half a cen tury; this promise is an excuse fol the miserable makeshift passed last month for emergency currency which will enable stock gambling to flourish on Wall street as it has never four ished before.
 That part of the republican plat form promising to amend the laws regulating railroads so that various lines may be permitted to make pools ia fixing rates is declared by the Chi cago Inter Ocean. a republican paper to have no other purpose than to in sure a campaign fund for the election of Taft this fall The same paper de ciares that the meaningless decIara ton in the platform concerning th' law of Injunction has no other pur pose than to secure votes for Taft anf that 1t disgraees the traditions of ih' republican party. It promises many other things which are barefaeed and hold hvpocrisy
 After the working men have fought for years for an eight-hour day and have won 1t. almost universally the republicans come forward and mass a declaration in faver of an eight-houl day.
 The republican platform declares it's friendship for the negro. notwith standing the great injustice done to the innocent negro soldiers who were disnisses rom the army in disgrace becanse of the criminal act of some unknown soldiers at Brownsville, Tex. as.
 The platform from beginning to end shows evidence of trimming and many of the decIartions carry qualifications which leave them meaningless. While

l think that it is he VINO needs TO take
memory tablets and not the Parkside
team. for as I said before our goal line
was never crossed last season. We de.
feated the New Castle 1eam by three
clean touchdowns. but Mr.. Chase, who
was acting as referee. made us put
the ball in play and penalized us on
two of them. claiming that the frs.
was made on an illegal forward pass,
and that a Parkside man was off-side
when the second went over He, how
ever. could not deprive us from one
touchdown. which we made in three
minutes time in the first half. so the
final score stood. Parkside, 5: New
Castle. 0. The Parkside team that was
defeated at New Castle was the same
team that played Independence last
Saturday or Parkside second team. The
Columbia team we defeated on a safety
