which gamblers are able to mauipu

Of plenty, a walled city Of indus
trial defense. Let us SOW ard reap
from the soil that is ours the necess
aiIes of life, and we can then IN any
possible EN- urgency forget the lux >

2. And once more be wary Of the

TILLMAN ON HEARST.
Glad that the Light Has Been Turn

racy Gang in this State.

Washington, October Ex-senator
and Mrs. Tillman arrived in Wash
ln"ton last night cn route home, af-
tcr an absence OF five months in Eu-
rope. When seen AT his hotel this
morning. Senator Tillman WAS sur
rounded by half dozen or more
newspaper men and other friends who
had called 10 welcome him home. and
t" "ct his views on the presidential
campaign and other matters.
Senator I'illman is naturally very
deeply interested in the outcome of
the presidential election. and al
though he has been absent, and not
III close touch with the management
Of the campaign, YET his general
knowledge Of the situation leads him
t" believe that Bryan will be the next
president Of the United States. He
does moi intend to enter the cam
paign, but will rest from his travels.
and be ready for thc approaching Sos
sion Of congress in December.
TO The News and Conricr corrcs-
n"ndcnt the senator said that he had
read the Archhold and McLaurin dis
closures. and that tho light had been
turned at last on Ia the ariS and do
inoS of the commercial Democracy

ator said: "Whal T would like to
