STEEL TRUST WOULD
( CONTROL BREWERIES
Organization to Buy Beer Factories in
Order to Determine How, When
and How Much Employees
Shall Imbibe

PITTSBURG, Oct. 25.-It is asserted
the United States Steel corporation
has decided to make an effort to con-
troll the drinking of 25,0U0 persons IN
Fayette county, Pa, where are. inter
ested in the manufacture of coke and
will invest $10,000,000 in a project to
obtain possession of nine breweries
now running in that county.
1t is understood that the steel cor
poration will try to regulate the drink
ing of the foreigners, 1t being figured
that at least per cent better returns
can be CLEANED on the millions invested
there by regulating the drink of the
coke workers-permitting them to
drink, but stipulating where and when
they shall drink.
The sale of beer by the keg or by the
barrel to the coke workers is what
the corporation objects to and will
try to remedy.
For more than a year figures have
been gathered on drinking among coke
workers and it is found that for sew
enty-two hours after each pay day the
coke ovens do not run more than two
thirds their capacity, and there is
scarcely a pay day when hundreds or
tons of coke are not ruined through
inability to get proper men to take
care of 1t in the ovens.

YOUNG COUPLE KILLED BY
GAS IN APARTMENT HOUSE

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 25.-Charles
Bywater of Loomis. Placer county,
aged 10, and his sister-in-law, Mrs
Joseph D. Bywater of this city, aged
20, were found dead today in the By
water apartments on Valencia street,
having been asphyxiated by gas
Young Bywater came here from his
country home last week to attend the
Portola festival and was staying with
his brother.
Because of lack of other accommo-
dation he was obliged to sleep on a
cot in the same room with the other
two members of the family.
Joseph Bywater arose early today,
built fire in the kitchen and went
out. A little later his wife got up,
spoke to the landlady, lighted the gas
heater and again retired,
Several hours later Mrs. David
Moore, roomer in the house, detected
the odor of gas, which was traced to
the Bywater apartment.
The door was forced open and the
two deaths were discovered.

POLICE SERGEANT'S WIDOW

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 25.-Nrs. An

KENT'S FOLLY.

A Suffolk dispatch in describing Re-
publican mass meeting at that place,
says that "the most salient feature of
Captain Kent's address was his arraign-
ment of the Democratic ring and the ad-
ministration of public school affairs.
He declared the Office trust had pitiless-
ly crushed and done to their political
deaths both Montague and Tucker. and
all others who had dared to oppose it.
The ring, he said, was a remorseless oil
garchy that had fattened upon sue.
cess"
Well, now that's rather warm and
drastic for you, isn't it? Just a trife
so, anyhow? OF course it's 'higb
plane" and all that-because it involves
Republican attack upon Democrats.
All of such things are high plane things,
we'd have you know. But we still have
the temerity to rise and remark, that
its 'olerably swift-that it's "going
some"-this denunciation of Democrat
ic leaders and Democratic methods by
the Republican gubernatorial nominee.
The point, however, is made in meek
spirit-in very lamb-like mood. Be
that understood. The News knows its
shortcomings as they are seen from Re-
publican viewpoint, and it tries to be
careful-very careful-to remember
about planes-political planes-high,
low or middling-and to hold ever in
view the sacred obligation to refrain
from offending Republican sensibilities
on that score.-Lynchburg News.
Yes, the Ring or Machine has crushed
Montague and Tucker and it is going to
crush some more of the Virginia Demo-

candidates of that party by pleading an
uncertain memory. This shows either
a mental or moral defect in the man.
Then the Judge says: 81 am no.
ashamed of my record as a public man.
nor do shrink from an honest analy-
sis" He must be lost to a sense Of
shame If he is not ashamed of his record
as exposed during the primary cam
paign by Harry Tucker and the Demo-
cratic papers that were hostile to him.
And if he would not shrinkfrom an hon
est analysis, why did he run away from
Mr.. Tucker and refuse to meet him
in joint debate?
And Judge Mann saws:
'As a member of the committee
charged with the investigation of the
charges against Judge Rhea, l reached
my conclusion on the evidence along
with eight other good men, there being
nine out of the ten of the committee in
favor of exOnorating Judge Rhea. and
for my actions in his case have no
apologies TO make"
Here, again, the Democratic candi-
date shows his facility as dissimulator
and his willingness to misstate facts.
He reached and publicly announced a
conclusion before he was appointed a
member of the Investigating commit
tee. Do fair and impartial men con-
sent to act as juror or judge in a case
In which they have already announced
fixed AMI positive opinion? That's
what Judge Mann did in the Rhea case;
and impartial bystanders will agree.
that during the investigation Judge
Mann's conduct was that of FRIEND
and defender who sought to conceal
the facts rather than of juryman who
wished to have the truth revealed
When an attempt was made to turn or
the light Judge Mann would interfere
and strive to envelope the facts in the
plutonion darkness which he knows Sc
well how to invoke, His announcement
that he Is not ashamed of his actions il
the Rhes matter, and that he has n,
apologies to make therefor, proves tina
he has so long equivocated and dis
sembled that he is lost to all sense O.
shame in matters political.
There is an old and we'll accepted say
ing: False in one thing, false in every
thing" So we can say of Judge Mann
speech in defense of his record and tina
of his party: False in many things
false and insincere in all things"

cratic leaders, among them the Honor
able Carter Glass. who owns and con
trOls the editorial columns Of the Lynch
burg News.
Why this fling at Captain Kent and
the Republicans because of their criti-
cism Of the Machine or Ring? Their
criticisms are much more refined than
those that have been made by Demo
cratic leaders and newspapers that were
hostile TO the Ring. How long has it
been since Mr.. Glass was denouncing
this same Ring or Machine as political
brigands" and as a corrupt "office-hold-
ers' trust" that threatened to destroy
the best interests of the Common
wealth? Does not the News remember
that Mr.. Glass appealed to the people to
vote for the making of a new constitu-
tion to get rid of the hold of the ''po-
litical brigands and office-holder' s
trust?''
The Machine has never forgotten
these denunciations of Mr.. Glass, and
his scalp will be taken at the most con-
vement time. 1t has not been many
months since notice was served upon
Mr.. Glass that if he dared to enter the
race for Governor that his personal as
well as political record would be assail-
ed by the Machine candidate. His
organ may cringe and fawn and defend
the Ring and sneer at others for saying
unpleasant truths about the Machine.
but it will do Mr.. Glass no good. He is
black listed, and the continued power OF
the Machine means his political de-
struction.

JUDGE MANN'S OPENING SPEECH.

On Monday of last week Judge Mann,
Democratic candidate for Governor,
made the opening speech of his cam
paign at Culpeper. The effort was
characteristic of the artful dissembler
who has made such a notorious record
by so skilfully weaving together false
hood and truth as to conceal the one
and make the other conspicuous. The
good things the Virginia Democracy
could not escape doing without incur
ring popular disfavor are made to shine
with resplendence, while its evil deeds
are attempted TO be concealed by bold
misstatements of facts and brazen
perversion of truth.
Judge Mann did not dispute the fig
ures offered by Captain Kent n support
of his charge that the Democratic party
10 Virginia had been wasteful and ex-
travagant in expenditure Of the States
revenues, but rested his case by de-
claring that the News Leader has al,
ready disposed of the figures given 10y
Mr. Kent" which figures the Richmond
paper said, "while accurate on their
face. lie most fiuently and flagrantly
snntil they are dissected."
This is the way the Democratic cand-
date tries to waive aside the fact that
the expenditures by the State Gov
ernment were double in 1908 what
they were in 1899. This is the way he
tries to answer the charge that the
amount paid in salaries to State officers
In 1899 was $1O7, 52l, and in 1903 $1l7,-
338 and in 1908 $244, 80. Judge Mann
studiously avoided any explanation of
the violated pledges of his party made
in connection with the making of the
new constitution. 1t is well remember
ed that the most urgent reason offered
for having a new constitution was to
give a more economical government and
to reduce the large army of office-hold-
ers that existed under what was called
the Underwood Constitution. Speak
ing of the achievements of the Demo
cratic party in Virginia Judge Mann
said:
81 have nothing to apologize for,
nothing to conceal, but stand ready, as
does every officer of the government, to
turn on the light and let the people,
whether Democrats or Republicans,
scrutinize the legislative, executive and
judicial departments to see if there is
any bad faith, any incompetence which
shall justify them in the hour of our
prosperity in taking the power out of
the hands of the Democratic party"
Turn on the light" When has
Judge Mann since his introduction into
politics in Virginia made any honest
effort to turn on the light, or when has
the Machine of which he is prominent
member shown a disposition to do SO?
There has not been an investigation of
any department of the State govern
ment that has not been made by partial
and PARTISAN legislative committees,
Republicans being excluded from all
such committees.
Judge Mann also said:
Il deny that there Is any ofice-hOId-

OUR BILLS OF PARTICULARS.

We have at last induced the Rich
mond News Leader to take notice of
our efforts to show where and how the
Democratic party has been wasteful,
eXtravagant, and, perhaps, corrupt in
its expenditures of the States reve-
nues. 1t has not been a great while
since our Richmond contemporary de-
fed the Republicans to show where one
dollar Of the public revenue had been
wasted or improperly expended. The
News Leader also clamored for a bill
of particulars from the Republicans in
support of the platform charge of Demo-
cratic extravaganza. With our little bow
and arrow we concluded to take a few
shots at the Richmond cock robin, which
twitters now so constantly in defense
of Machine management of the State
affairs. Three times we filed bills of
particulars, but not until the third trial
did we awaken response from our very
interesting contemporary. And here is
the way it whistles:
'Laboring and toiling painfully. the
Tazewell Republican continues its eff
forts to show that the Democratic ad-
ministrations in Virginia have been
wasteful or corrupt. This week it al
ludes mysteriously to two instances in
support of its position which it has pre-
sented for the consideration of the News
Leader. 1t says we have made no re-
ply. We do not know what The Repub-
lican Is talking about. Either we failed
to see the article Of which it speaks or
the matter was too trivial for attention
or recollection"
The improper expenditure or waste
of few hundred thousand dollars NAV
be trivial matter to the News Leader.
but 1t is a matter of Importance to the
taz payers in this part of the Common
wealth and possibly in those sections so
completely dominated by the Machine.
These very trivial matters were set
forth in two bills of particulars, pub
lished on the 9th and 10th instants, re-
spectively. And that our esteemed
contemporary may have the opportunity
to pass in judgment upon them we will
give brief resume of the items en-
braced in the two bills.
The first item was a setting forth of
the fact that the expenses of the State
Government in 1908 were nearly double
what they were in Increased from
$3,111, 431 in 1899 to IS, 756, O19 in 1903.
And that the salaries paid to State Of
fcers in 1899 amounted to $1O7, 542 while
the salaries paid to State officers in 1908
amounted to $244,3 $40.
We know that our contemporary has
undertaken to efface these figures by a
labored article, a criticism of Captain
Kent's speech, and tries to account for
the enormous increase by indulging in
pretty talk about the Virginia of today
being a progressive State. But the
! News Leader hes failed utterly to show
