ENGLISH CRIMINALS PUNISHED

DIR Crippen is all in and is making his return
trip ACROSS the Atlantic to stand trial for murder in
England. The sleuths of Scotland Yard scented we'll
and though the doctor possessed the cunning of old
fox yet he tracked to his lair and his finish
before he saw land his flight trip the
headed for Montreal Whether or not the doctor has
actually murdered his wife or any other woman is
purely problematica but thing is certain, he will
have to explain before the English courts the strange
disappearance of his wife, and secondly to account for
the body Of the found in the basement of the
house which qe occupied in London. Please note the
contrast in taken human life in England ann fleeing
the country and that of the recent murder in Italy,
Dr. Crippen is only suspected of having committed
murder in England, while young Charlton not only
suspected of having committed murder but confessed
to the same, and instead of being Immediately taken
back to stand trial for his act the United States gov
ernment and Italy splitting hairs some weak
ness of the treaty between the two countries to
whether he will be sent back turned loose If you
commit crime in England you will be punished.

According to the political ethics Of the Times and

Did the Burke and Poindexter unite to defeat
the move have the election of the judges of the

PERFECT PEACE PRESERVED

Down in Texas another bloody uprising on the part
of unruly Negroes have been reported and it SSH
tated the killing of some fifty of them on the
part of the humane whites in order preserve peace
1t is very remarkable that the Negroes of the United
States should periodically far forget where they are
to make efforts to drive the whites from the land
and take possession of the for themselves but if
the press of the country be relied upon they will
do it. 1t was but few days ago that deputy sher-
if of a county in Mississippi went out to arrest Me-
gro and finding some ten or dozen of them talking
together declared they were planning to attack him
with clubs and he was forced to shoot down five of
them in order to show his authority Even the sheriff
of this county in which the wholesale killing of the
Texas Negroes took place declares he find no ex-

reign of terror that was instituted against the Me-

DEMOCRACY DUMPS BRYAN

Has William Jennings Bryan finally met his Water
loo in politics? is the question of the hour For near
ly twenty years the country has set up and taken
notice to Bryan's paramount issues perhaps
since he had the united Democratic party behind him
than because of the real merit in them but has he in
trying to force the Democratic party to adopt the Pro-
hibon question promulgateda real live issue that will
result in the overthrow of the party that has given him
succor for many years There is no denying the
fact that the drink question is rapidly becoming the
paramount issue with the men and women of the
United States and Mr. Bryan has certainly touched
popular chord and if he refuses to follow his party in
it's adoption of whisky platform and casts his pot-
cal lot with the anti drink forces whether they be
Democrat or Republican it means that the drink
question is going to have rocky road to travel AS
Anti-drink advocate it is believed that Mr.. Bryan
will show strength than he has ever yet in all OF
his paramount issue proclamatons.

PROHIBITION IN WASHINGTON

And speaking about the drink question in the
United States is the private opinion publicly express
sed of of the leading Republicans of the State of
Washington that there is grave danger of the state
falling into the prohibition column at the next elec-
ton. That is to say elect sufficient number of
bers of the legislature to pass strong county unit
local option law and perhaps prohibition bill.
The question is much issue in the state is
servaton and the statesman would do we'll to set up
and take notice of it as we'll of the other all
absorbing questions. The last legislature lacked but
two votes of passing strong county unit local option
law and it is than possible that it will be able to
the law at the next legislature although it is being
argued to the contrary.

THE TACOMA CONVENTION

Was gathering of the Clans the renewing of the
faith and the re-baptism in odtime Repubcansm not
an introduction of Insurgent or Progressive Repub-
canism nor the standing pat on Regular Republican,
icansm but the renewing of the faith IN the Repuo-
cansrn of our fathers. The man who is seeking an
office at the hands of Republicans who did not partici
pate in that convention, is not Republican. Repub-
cans from every county in the state at Tacoma
and shook hands with the old-time Republicans and
got acquainted with other Republicans who have come
to the state since the last convention was held Those
partisans in many instances differed widely as to the
proper for the party of their choice to pursue
but they thrashed out their differences in the councils
of the party and left Tacoma the true blue Re-
pubicans that they before they went there and
the man who could not do that is not Republican and
is liar and the truth is not in him, If he says ne ls
The senatorial candidacy of was espoused in
that convention but platform was put out on which
every loyal Republican stand aud ghtfo the sue
of the party. At that convention Miles Polndex-
ter, who says he is Republican, and who is seeking
to be elected to the United States senate by Repub
cans was conspicuous for his absence. Here was
great gathering of Republicans and yet OF the men
seeking the highest office in the gift of the people was
not present at it's councils and not present simply be-
cause he was not in harmony with Republicansm. The
greater part of Mr.. PoindeXters life has been spent
in the Democratic party damnng Republicanism, and
for him to participate in promulgatng genuine Repub
lcanism, did not svit his efete Virginia TASTE and he
therefore preferred to stay away and throw stones at
the platform when it had adjourned. On the rostrum
sat Senator Jones and Piles each representing distinct
factions of the party but they talked R9pubicanism
and forgot their differences for the time being The
Wilson adherents mingled freely with the Burke fol-
lowerss The members of each faction wore the en-
sigma of their favorte for United States SENATOR but
they forgot all that when the convention convened and
all marched to their seats to the strains of Republican
music and again pledged themselves to that kind of
Republcanism that is ready and willing to submit to
the majority But Poindexter, oh, where was he? He
did not feel called upon to render account of his
stewardship to Republicans of what he had done in
Congress- He had report to make He had not
acted with Republicans while in Congress and of
had nothing to tell Republicans. What pity
the Democrats do not hold similar convention and
have Miles Pondexter to tell them how he wallopped
the life out of the Republicans.

 Even Ebenezer J.

Hill never said one word either for or against it then. But things are diff ferent now.

TALK TEN.

Hoffman likes to meet the Collector. "
There is nothing brings out the inner
truths. of Life Insurance like argument.
Notwithstanding all the years that Life
Insurance has been doing its work of mer-
CIV and providence for men and their fam
lilies, the stock of objections to this, that
and the other about it isn't exhausted.
If you've doubt, or question, which
you think has never been asked, or raised,
you're the man Hoffman is looking for.
And isn't it tribute to a wonderful
subject that thousands OF men whose bus
mess it is to study Life Insurance, as well
as millions of men who ought to be inter
ested in il for their own sakes, still find
something to talk about concerning IT.
Hoffman feels that it is very egotistical
stand to take to claim to know it all; but
he feels confident he can answer any
point YOU will raise, and answer it to your
satisfaction. He couldn't do this If he
represented any other company.
