A great victory was won for De-
mocracy down in Arkansas as well as
up in Maine, Less spectacular be-
cause bipartisan, the Arkansas re-
suits were none the less important.
Arkansas, as is well known, is a SOL
id Democratic state, and it is not in
the partisan significance but in the
broader, better sense that we speak
of the victory for Democracy there.
Arkansas on Tuesday joined Oregon
in restoring the power of government
to the people, by adopting an an end
ment to the constitution Of the state
which provides for the initiative, the
referendum and the recall. Incident
ally, the adoption ofthis amendment
proved that Mr.. Bryan is still strong
in the confidence of the masses Of
his party. Mr.. Bryan spent several
days in the state, making maguif-
cent campaign in behalf of the
amendment. His enemies hoped to
prove, by defeating the measure for
which he commended, that his popul-
arity is gone. They made of the fight
a test of his influence. They hoped
to bury this "Bryanism' under an
avalanche OF ballots. But the ava
lanche buried them instead of Bryan,
Arkansas made a great step forward
in the sisterhood of states on Tues
day, when, by decisive vote, she
declared for government of, by and
for the people.

GENEROSITY OF ALDMCH.

Republican candidates for Congress
boast Of the generosity Of Senator
Aldrich in permitting q large number
Of articles to go on the free list in
the new taritFlaw. And Democratic
candidates are telling what the free
list really consists Of. Some of the
things that the generous Rhode Is
land statesman permitted on the
free list were ioss-sticks, bladders,
dried blood and horse hair. Then
there are birds eggs, lemon juice,
turtles and junk. Also acorns, boues,
ashes, zaffer, catgut, fossils, Brazilian
pebbles and oakum.

BLUE and GRAY
TO Be UNITED, If THE COMMANDER Of
CAL HAS SAY.

Atlantic City, N. j., Sept. ee.-
Comprehensively reviewing the work
of the Grand Army of the Republic
in the nation for the past year, dur
ing which he has acted as its head.
Commmder-in-chief Samuel R. vanS
SAINT, today, addressed the delegates
to the forty-fourth National En-
campment, as well with an eye to
the future good that the great organi-
zation might accomplish, as upon
the notable achievements of its past.
The COMMANDMENT Chief express
ed himself as particularly gratffed
at the increasing determination Of
the ''Blae and the Gray" He
voiced his pleasure at the cordial re-
ceptton givea him during his recent
official visit to the Southern depart
ments, not only from the former
Union soldiers, but from ex-Confed-
crates.
In all cities, when possible, . he
said Il urged joint meetings of she
Blue and the GRAY. We had MANY
gatherings of this character, and no
more loyal and patriotic sentiments
were ever uttered than by the men
who fought on the other side.
Are you not pleased to learn
that our comrades are living in peace
and harmony with out late enemiess
This is as It should be. Both armies
composed Of brave men and they
should and do mutually respect each
other. We of the North can testify
that no Drawer troops were ever mar
shalled for conflict than our late enc
mies-and we now realize that no
men ever made greater sacrifices for
what they believed to be right than
than our former foes.''

! conspiracy in restraint Of trade.
Eight Of the ten came into court and
furnished bail for appearance for
trial; the other two being abroad
cannot be reached unless they choose
to return and face trial.
Judge Lands based his demand
for the indictment Of living, breath
ing men instead Of aliases on the
following terse and logical argument:
If John Jones should call himself
John Smith or THE Metal Fabri-
eating company" and under one Of
these names, should manufacture
copper plates for printing counter
felt money, the inquest Of grand
jury would not be complete untilthe
unlawful act had been traced to the
offender concealed behind the aliases
and the real counterfeiter had been
indicted. Indeed, in the supposed
case nobody would think Of pros
ecuting The Metal Fabricating
company why, then in case Of
conspiracy to restrain trade, should
courts and district attorneys concern
themselves with the fatous, sntiquat-
ed and quite unnecessary fiction that
corporations are legal personsf Why
should they pursue an alias instead
of the Aesh-andrblo men who
actually commit, or direct, the un-
lawful acts'"
Judge Landisis on the right track.
Crime is personal and must be treat
ed as such if big business" is to be
prevented from penetrating, or be
punished for, criminal acts. WhenS
the heads of trusts and combinations
become convinced that they cannot
escape punishment by hiding behind
their corporation charters, the peo-
pie will cease to be oppressed by
the crimes of such aggregations of
individuals. More power to Lands
and all other judges of his stamp.

Tnr democrats of this county hay

The democrats of this county have
good reason to be proud of the ticket
they have named to be voted upon
at the November election. Seldom
has so strong ticket been nominal
ed by any party in Mason county,
1t is composed of men who possess in
the highest degree the confidence Of
the people of this county, regardless
of political leanings, and who will,
ifelected, prove efficient officers.
1t behooves every loyal democrat to
support this ticket regardless of any
minor elements that may enter into
the coming campaign. @

TARIFF INCREASES PRICES.

Prof. ]. P. Norton, of Yale uniyer-
sity, declares that the increased
proportionate out put of gold" is not
the principal cause of increased
prices. Prices in this country, under
protection, have advanced so per
cent more than in England, under
free trade, he says. In all countries
under the gold standard, the out
put Il gold must operate uniformly.
Therefore, Prof Norton concludes,
there must be some special cause at
work in this country. He suspects it
is the Payne-Aldrich tariff law.

THE PASSING OF TAWNEY.

Evidences daily multiply of polit-
ical unrest and revolution against the
system" which has made the
brazenly open robber tariff of today
responsible for many glaring national
ills, now and for many years past.
These evidences come from all parts
Of the Union, in primaries, elections,
conventions, utterances of the press,
organizations and public men. The
latest emphatic Reputation of this
comes from within the ranks of the
party which made it possible. 1t is
expressed in the defeat for re-non. :
nation of Congressman A. lawn.
ey, Of Minnesota, by Sidney Ander-
son, young attorney representing
the : insurgent wing of the party.
This is the more remarkable from
the fact that Tawney was backed by
a powerful machine, had served con-
tinuously in congress for nine terms,
and was assisted by the moral sup
port of President Taft in choosing
Minnesota as state from which to
read the insurgents out of the Repub-
lican party IA proceeding which,
by the way, the president hastily
renowned after the Maine election
by announcing the Federal pork bar
rel wonld hereafter be open to in
surgents and regulars alike But all
this did not save Tawney. He went
down under the overwhelming state
and national sentiment which has
crystalized under the reign Of Can
nonism. Tawney is the chairman Of
the Rules Committee of the House,
and among Cannon's supporters and
the standpatters crowd, second only
in influence to Cannon himself. He
has been one Ofthe leading and most
persistent fighters for a high tariff,
and closely allied with the inter
ests" which the last Republican
national platform says should be
guaranteed a fair profit by robbing
the consumer. He goes down with
Others of the conspirators against
the common people in the interests
of the favored financial pirates of the
country. His defeat ought to send a
SILVER up Uncle JOe's political spine;
likewise that of another of his chief
lieutenants, Col. Alexander, Of the
seth New York district, who. has
long been a member Of the lower
house and is seeking reelection.

EXPENSIVE HORSE SHOEING

One hundred and forty dollars for
street car tickets; ssS7.6e for
horseshoeing, s4so.55 for soap and
brushes! These are a few Of the
small expenditures Of the state de-
partment Of the government in 1900.
The horseshoeing item is gem as a
sample of the much boosted Taft
policy of "cut-to-the-quick" ec-
onomy. The item of s9S7.se refers
to the shooting Of four horses for one
year!

The St Louise Globe Democrat de-
clares that "a Democrats victory in
November would bring a crash on the
New York Stock Exchange just as
surely as the sun would rise on We'd

brought on the Roosevelt panic of
1907.

TAFT makes it plain that he hopts

This means that he does not even

sees no significance in the fact that
from Maine to California the can
didates branded with his Endorsement
