The announcement is made thst U.

The announcement is made that U. S.
Senator Aldrich is to retire at the end Of
his term In March, 1911, and not seek re.
election. This is about the best piece Of
news concerning this trust representative
the people have. ever had. During his
long term of service in Congress he has
done nothing but betray the people by
securing legislation favorable to the, big
financial interests of the country, the
recently enacted tariff measure being his
browning piece Of infamy. The hope is
that the announcement of his intended
retirement Is founded on fact.

the MASTER hand who did it. The plan is
such q simple one, that it is wonder it
was not thought of years ago. This is
what he proposes: ''Let men make all

when they die let the State take half OF

the State sanction and support piracies,
highway robbery. the profit system and
everything else that is vicious, so that the

State Is to be bribed for its iniamy by
securing half the swag when he dies.
