DEMOCRATS CAN WIN, BUT THEY
MUST FIGHT HARD. SAYS CLARK

should remember that sometimes men
fight most viciously when scared the
worst and so it may be with them.
Special privilege, over which Andrew
Jackson, of blessed and heroic mem
ory, triumphed in his day, is firmly in
trenched in power now through years
and years of republican maladminis-
tration and cannot be rooted out with
out a terrific struggle. The beneficiar-
les thereof will pour stream of gold
like unto the river Pactolus into the
republican Doodle fund with which to
debauch the voters of the land and then
recoup themselves by more of special
privilege granted by the men for whom
they buy the offices. For years that
endless chain has been in operation,
and it will continue to operate till our
system of government is thoroughly
purged of every variety and every YES
tige of special privilege.

China Delivers Reply.

Peking, July 21.-China's reply to
the announcement of the recently con-
cluded Russo-Japanese convention
was delivered at the legations of
these two countries today. The sub
stance of the reply has already been
published.
1t is generally recognized here the
clauses and phraseology of the reply
were specially drafted in accordance
with the policy of the United States
to which China looks for backing. In
accepting the Chinese note P Ijuin,
Japanese minister to China, assured
the Chinese representatives Japan
did not contemplate any manner of
aggression and added that time would
prove that Japan was a true friend of
China.

"The regular republicans gave in

HUNDREDS CUT
OFF BY FOREST
FIRES IN NORTH

Morrill,, Wis, July 21.-Several hun
dred persons of Bloomville and Heine-
mann are hemmed in by forest fires
at the former town with seemingly no
means of escape. Fires have destroy
ed the railroad tracks for some dis
tance between Bloomville and Morrill,.
The situation at Bloomviile is critical
Four hundred homeless of Heinemann
fed to that village only to be confront
ed by similar peril. Gleason, north of
Bloomville, is isolated.
Wausau, Wis, July 21.-Information
received here from villages northeast
of Merrill gave credence to the reports
that many residents of the district are
cut off by flames. The best informa-
ton is possibly 700 are thus endan-
gered. The largest of the three viii
lagos encircled by flames, Heinemann,
has a population of $50, Bloomville
$50 and Gleason 100.
The country surrounding is one vast
belt of hardwood, hemlock and pine
woods and cut over lands so over
grown with brush as to afford much
opportunity for a rapid spread of the
flames
Wausau, Wis, July 21.-Forest fires
in the southeast portion of this county
are probably the worst fires ever seen
in Marathon county and unless the
wind ceases 100000 feet of standing
timber will be destroyed The fire has
covered an area fully 10 miles in
lenRth west and east.

BORAX IN CONES
Government to Seize Ice Cream
Confection Whenever This
Drug Is Found.
NECESSITY, SAY MAKERS
Used to Retain Shape-Caccharin
and BenzOate of Soda Also Com
mon Ingredients.

Washington, July 21.-Prosecu-
tiOns against manufacturers of ice
cream cones which contain borax are
to be instituted by the government
under the pure food law.
Large seizures of cones were made
recently in different parts of the
country by inspectors of the depart
ment of agriculture. Analysis of the
cones seized disclosed the presence
of borax, a property which has been
held to be deleterious to the human
stomach.
The cones, chemically tested, were
found to contain also saccharine and
benzoate of soda, but it was said at
the department that proposed prose-
cutions would be based solely on the
presence of borax, inasmuch as sac
charine still was under investigation
and benzoate of soda had been held
to be harmless when used in small
quantities.
Used to Keep Shape.
Inspectors will continue to make
seizures wherever cones are found
containing borax. Manufacturers US
ing borax contend that this ingred-
lent is necessary to make the cones
hold their shape.
So popular have ice cream cones
become -throuGhOat- -the-eountFy,es-
pecially among newsboys and street
urchins, that their manufacture has
become a thriving enterprise. Orig
inalIy, according TO officials of the
government, much better material
was used in making the cones, but
there was a demand for cheap ones,
such as are used by hundreds of
street venders, who retail them filled
with ice cream, at l cent each.

Monreal. July 21.-The news out of
Ottawa that the minister of commerce
and labor was trying to get both sides
of the Grand Trunk strike together on
a basis of arbitration provoked Vice
President Murdoch of the strikers to
a short retort last night.
Arbitration" said he, "is out of the
question. As far as we are concerned,
there will be no arbitration. The COM
pany did not talk arbitration until they
had nagged the men to finish. Now
they want it. We will have none of it. D."
Yesterday the Grand Trunk gained
ground but very slowly. More pas

Democrats, Meeting at
Lincoln, Adopt Reso-
Iuti0ns.
is SUE PARTY CALL
Members of Legislature Who
Stood by Stringer to the
End Are Endorsed.

Lincoln, Ill, July 21.-Democrats OF
Illinois yesterday denounced each and
every democratic member of the 46th
general assembly who voted for Will
liam Lorimer for senator. They also
planned to defeat any attempt Of these
democrats to retain their places in
legislature.
Meeting in the home town of the
defeated candidate of the party for
the senatorship, Lawrence B. Stringer,
200 democrats from all of the Is down
state congressional districts, together
with a delegation from Chicago, adopt
ed a platform repudiating as party
members the democrats who gave
Lorimer their votes.
AntI-SuIIivan Rally.
Roger c. Sullivan, as titular head
of the party state organization, came
in for a large share of denunciation
after the assembly had worn out its
wrath upon its Lorimerites. The mass
meeting really resolved itself into an
anti-Sullivan rally and the contest of
the opposition which has been fight
ing Sullivan since 1904 to obtain con-
troll of the state machinery was fairly
started
Ben F. Caldwell of Sangamon coun-
ty, former member of congress from
the Springfield district and potential
candidate for the democratic guber-
Material nomination two years hence,
was chairman of the conference. Con-
gressman NJ. D. Foster of Olney had a
conspicuous part in the proceedings
Congressman James Graham of
Springfield sent his regrets in letter
full of sympathy for democracy in it's
present plight, while Congressman
Henry T. Rainey, whose presence was
awaited until the last second, was
among the missing.
Stronger Adherents There.
The majority of the democratic
members of the legislature who re-
fused to vote for Lorimer but stood
fast for Stringer, were in the crowd.
Raymond Robins of Chicago gave
speech in which Lorimer and Sullivan
were treated without respect or con
sideration. The Robins speech was
the real keynote of the mass meeting
and led the democrats t. enthusiastic
periods of wrath and applause.
Lawrence B. Stringer was not pres
ent at the meeting, but he sent a let
ter. full of significance inasmuch as
it is the first public utterance he has
made since the election of Lorimer
He set forth in his letter reasons why
NO one of the Lorimer democrats can
legitimately excuse his vote upon the
ground of political expediency.
Resolutions Prepared.
The reolutions were prepared by
committee consisting of Lewis Fitz-
henry of Bloomington, S. F. Gilmore
of Effngham, Louis F. Post of Chi
cago, James B. Lloyd of Lincoln and
John w. Sheppard of Jacksonvil1e.
Mr.. Fitzhenry, chairman of the reso-
lutions committee, is a member of the
democratic state committee from
Bloomington and the democratic can
didate for congress against Congress
man Sterling.
