a number of Democratic state pa
pers found themselves III q very in
harmonious and inconsistent position a
few days ago. They published plate
matter shipped to them from Demo
cratic headquarters lauding Senator
LaFollette to the skies, supposing
thar the Senator was friendly TO the
candidacy of Bryan. La some cases
the same issues contained editorial
comment Of a far different nature, for
it has suddenly become a subject of
public knowledge that La Toilette
was on the stump working tooth and
nail for the entire republican ticket
from Taft down. These newspapers
do not like LaFollette any more,
and some of them are Iambasting him
in a shameful manner or standing
steadfastly for his party nominees.

Under our present law we place a
tariff on goods made by underpaid
labor in Europe. so that these goods
cannot come into competition with
American goods made by higher
paid American workers We protect
in this way the American wage
scale against the competition of cheap
foreign labor. If the law which gives
this protection is removed and Ameri-
can manufacturers have TO meet the
prices Of goods made by European labor,
the wage scale of the American work
men will have to be cut down. MIR.
Bryan and his party do not believe in
the principle of the protective tariff and
want to abolish il. Hash { American

TO THE VOTERS.

1t behooves every loyal Republican
in the Third Congressional District
to go to the polls next Tuesday and
cast his ballot for the straight Re-
publican ticket This is no time to
parley. A mighty conflict is now on
over the entire country for control
of the next Congress. The Third
Congressional District may WELD the
deciding vote in that Congress. Let
every man stand by his colors and see
that the Old Third is redeemed and
placed where it belongs in the Re-
publican column by elecuing Arthur
w. Kopp to Congress. A Republican
president with hostile house would
be a calamity. 1t would tie up
legislation for years to come. The
president would be powerless to carry
on the reform movement, so we'll be-
gun by President Roosevelt. Bust
ness interests would suffer. uncertainty
take the place of certainty, and doubt
the place of confidence.
If you believe in the principles of
the Republican party and have the
welfare of your country at heart, if
you are in favor of carrying on the
Roosevelt policies, then go to the
polls on election day and place your
mark at the top of the third column.
Vote the straight Republican ticket.

President Fallieres spent the greater

and representatives of the, En- glish civic
society at ST. James palace. He drove
across London this afternoon to take
lunch with the lord mayor and the au-

historic Guild hall. His presence was
marked by series of ovations by the
crowds which lined the thorough fares
through which he passed. At Oxford

MOST ATROCIoUs, OUTRAGE
Rudolph Spreckefs Deems 'Dy-
naniting Link in Evidence

LOS ANGELES. May 27.-''The blow
ing up last night of three houses be-
longing to James L. Gallagher of San
Francisco is one of the most atrocious
Of the long series of outrages perpe-
trated In that city in the last few
months" said Rudolph Spreckels of San
Francisco in the course of an inter
view today.
1T is merely another link in the
chain Of evidence tending to show that
certain people in San Francisco will
stop at nothing in their endeayors to
prevent the prosecution of indicted. Of
fcials of some of the public service
corporations.
The motive back OF the latest out
rage seems clearly to have been not
only 10 wreak vengeance on Gallagher
himself, but to intimidate other wit
nesses upon whom the prosecution
must depend for valuable testimony in
the trials of indicted officials of cor
porations. -..f
such acts merely tend to emphasize
the point that the time has come when
the line must be sharply drawn be-
tween honest people and those whom
the people know TO be guilty of crimes.
If every honest man In the community
viii take his stand openly on this
question there need be no fear of the
result.
1T is time, however. for every man to
Z say whether he prefers good govern
nent. a ge1eFnment-so Of law. and order
and one IN which exact justice shall
prevail, or whether he is willing that
the ends OF justice shall be oyerthrown
at VIII by a few men in high places.
This is now the issue squarely before
the people. not only Of San Francisco
but of the -entire country and they
cannot getaway from it,"

high seas last night after drifting
helplessly for two days in n small
launch as the result of a combination

lost from the launch Sunday night
while several miles of Avalon in a
most mysterious manner.
Z Seaman Hooline, was lost overheard
from the Buffalo in effecting the RESI-
cue of Easton and his party from the
launch.
Easton is q former war correspond
ent of Harper's Weekly. an author OF
considerable reputation and, was form
erly secretary to Webster Davis, as
sistant secretary of the interior under
President Mckinley. Easton and his
family were finally safely taken aboard
the Buffalo and brought to Avalon at
frightful experience, being for two
days without food, and all were In q
state of nervous collapse when landed

in the afternoon of that. day they
boarded the -Zeus and started to return
to Avalon. The craft encountered a
heavy sea that night and when day
dawned Monday Easton found that Cap
tain Crist was missing from the launch.
together with the small rowboat towed
at the stern. The gasoline engine OF
the launch was still running but Eas-
ton knew nothing of its mechanism
A heavy fog set in which totally OBJ
scured the island shore and all bearings
were soon completely lost.
A heavy storm came up which tossed
the craft about and threatened to
swamp every moment. Easton kept
the engine going until the gasoline was
exhausted when the boat drifted. All
day Monday, Monday night and Tues
day were spent by Easton and his
family in the launch, which was car
ried far out to sea.
Late Tuesday evening the u. 8. s
